In this super-sized episode, we discuss one of our most beloved movie sequels, The Empire Strikes Back! For this second episode in our "straight to the sequel" September series, we talk about all the things that make this a major favorite, including the appearance of Yoda (aka "The Bunny"), Luke's growth, Leia's continuing transition from rebel princess to military leader, Han Solo's development from lone wolf to full-fledged pack member, Lando's tough decision, Darth Vader's workplace woes, sound and special effects marvels that dazzled us as toddlers (and continue to do so today), and how director Irvin Kershner brought real heart to this space opera. Jump in your snowspeeder, grab your tow cable, and take on the Empire with us!
