I guess that makes sense. I very much DON'T give movies passes for individual great scenes, no matter how good. Consistency is much more important to me, which RotJ very much is not.

I mean god, Harrison Ford in that movie has just absolutely given up on giving a shit.

Yeah moments matter in a huge way to me.

If I was a movie critic and got paid to surgically analyse the movies, or if I was in some way motivated to rewatch them with the specific purpose of ranking them, I might well end up saying ESB is better than RotJ, or putting RotJ considerably lower down the list. Maybe, who knows? But I'm gonna just embrace subjectivity with Star Wars. RotJ top feels right.

For another example, Rogue One is probably a couple of spots higher on my list than it "should" be, or otherwise would be, because of Slasher Vader. With TLJ I think of Luke walking out vs. the First Order with, again, the fantastic score and amazing visuals of it (among a couple of others like Snoke and Yoda, TLJ is great shit man).
