Is ESB really better?

George Lucas made Star Wars. It is his legacy. Kershner is similar to Lucas in the way that they both made a single good movie in their careers.

But A New Hope is genius level filmmaking. Only one movie could steal lightning from 2001 A Space Odyssey. That movie is the very first Star Wars Movie.

Verdict ANH > ESB

A new hope is the first one and for this reason very special, not doubt about it, but in my opinion the Empire strikes back is the best SW movie.
