It's official: Return of the Jedi is still the best. Sure, it has some weak parts, but nothing in any Star Wars tops the throne room scenes. I tend to judge stories by their best parts unless the bad parts are just that bad (see: Xenosaga Episode III), so that's why RotJ is still my favorite Star Wars movie.

that's fair, though i also think the bad parts in RotJ... really are that bad. but aside from that, i'm a "judge a story by the entirety of the story" kind of guy, so RotJ doesn't do it for me.

i will say my opinion of the movie has improved a lot over the years, though (maybe thanks to many star wars movies getting released that were clearly a lot worse?). i used to really dislike it but now i think it's more meh than anything. disappointing conclusion to the trilogy but not bad.
