Return of the King vs Return of the Jedi

[curl-6]

I really love both films.

Jedi is actually my favourite of the Star Wars movies; it's definitely less consistent than A New Hope or Empire, but it's highs, particularly the epic space battle and the final act of Luke and Vader's arc are to me the most potent moments in the series.

Return of the King though, is one of the greatest pieces of filmmaking of all time in my opinion. From direction to cinematography to special effects to music, it's a masterclass in how to bring a series to an epic and powerful conclusion. From the ride of the Rohirrim, to Sam carrying Frodo up the volcano, to its bittersweet ending, it's truly an unforgettable experience, and gets my vote.
