Star Wars Episode 5 (1980)

In episode 5, the resistance against the empire (led by princess Leia) has set up a secret hideout on a remote and icy planet. The empire forces (led by Darth Vader) are trying to stop the resistance (revenge for them destroying the Death Star). The empire invades the resistance's hideout and eventually captures Han Solo, R2D2, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, and C-3PO. Luke Skywalker escapes the initial attack and finds the jedi master Yoda to finish his training a become a Jedi fighter. He aborts his training to go rescue his friends (a trap set by Darth Vader). Skywalker fights against Darth Vader and finds out that Vader didn't kill his father but in fact IS his father! Skywalker and his team manage to escape from Darth Vader's clutches in the end. I liked this movie much better than episode 4. Still pretty corny, but one of my favorite lines was something about how being dead is really hard to live with... classic!
