So since you're on the internet, you probably know that Leslie Nielsen's dead by now. What you might not know is that Irvin Kershner is also dead.
Now, The Empire Strikes Back used to be my favorite movie. It's still in the top 5 (and will probably never leave because I just don't watch movies as much as I used to). It was, at the time that I saw it, the darkest movie I'd ever seen (no, not in terms of lighting). It has one of the greatest soundtracks of all time, and it demonstrated that the good guys don't have to win for it to be a good movie.
