The ice planet Hoth is a pure white expanse that engulfs the viewer in this other world like the deserts of Tatooine. The ensuing battle features imaginative AT-AT Walkers, which I vaguely recall in Lego form. This also marks the first appearance of Yoda and his topic-comment speech. He is really funny looking not being computer generated. He kind of reminds me of Kermit, looking very puppet-like. It is a far cry from the computer generated image we see in the prequel trilogy. This movie is a pivotal one for Luke as he is tempted by the Dark Side and Darth Vader. This is probably the best of the Star Wars films story wise, with the big, well-known, oft quoted revelation at the end.
