R.I.P. I was just watching The Empire Strikes Back last night.

Just finished reading The Making of Empire Strikes Back. A must read for any SW fan. A lot of info on Kershner and his relationship with Lucas, Fisher, Hamill, and Ford. Never knew about the original script and all the production headaches. Great artwork, too.
