Star Wars, 30 years on

Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983)

The Story: Darth Vader and the Empire are building a new, indestructible Death Star. Meanwhile, Hans Solo has been imprisoned, and Luke Skywalker has sent R2D2 and C3PO to try and free him. Princess Leia, disguised as a bounty hunter, and Chewbacca go along as well. The final battle takes place on the moon of Endor, with its natural inhabitants, the Ewoks, lending a hand to the rebels. Will Darth Vader and the dark side overcome the rebels and take over the universe? Watch the greatest ever battle take place!

I few up like many boys my age with two scenes etched in my memory forever: The first was in Kranti, where Hema Malini and Parveen Babi fight each other and then, an imprisoned Hema Malini removes the key which is tucked in Parveen Babi's cleavage. The scene played out for an eternity and no one complained. The other was watching Princess Leia in a bikini with harem pants whose slit went all the way up to her hips!

The final installment of one of the greatest series, was brilliant and the most satisfying end in every possible way.

This film was also not directed by Lucas but by Richard Marquand.

Favorite scene: The battle between father and son, and when Darth Vader takes out his mask and dies.
