FIRST STAR WARS MEMORY
My father coming home from a business trip -- maybe in 1984 -- with a Darth Vader action figure for me.
FAVORITE FILM
Return of the Jedi
FAVORITE CHARACTER
Luke Skywalker
FAVORITE SCENE
Luke taking down all of Jabba's henchmen in the sarlacc sequence from Return of the Jedi. The action, energy, and music are just about perfect.
