May 21, 1980. It's a date that'll live in infamy of its own sorts. That's the date when Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back rocked the world of fandom to its core. That's when sci-fi fans learned a secret that no one saw coming, and it changed the way we looked at George Lucas's space western.
In the three long years since Star Wars opened our eyes to the possibilities of what could be done on the big screen, fans had grown a bit older, a bit wiser. What Lucas did -- along with many creative artists who contributed to TESB -- was to show us that our films can mature nicely as well, and boy did they deliver on that premise.
