The perfect sequel
Just like it's predecessor, The Empire Strikes Back is a hugely important sci-fi classic. The first two Star Wars films changed the face of cinema forever!

Everything that makes A New Hope so enjoyable is present and correct in TESB, but bigger and better in everyway.
All of the main characters are charming - it's easy to see why they have such a cult following.
The second time around, were given much more back story to already established characters (including the infamous mother of all twists), and we're introduced to new characters, such as Lando, Yoda, and Boba Fett, who all quickly became fan favourites.

We're also introduced to new locations, showing off gorgeous cinematography at every opportunity - places like Bespin, and Hoth (where one of my favourite set pieces of the whole saga takes place).
John Williams score is once again flawless, easily one of the best movie scores of all time.

The movie also ends on a huge cliffhanger, and no matter how many times I see TESB, I'm always ready to move on to the next chapter immediately.
It's a timeless classic.
