Last year, as I was rewatching the Star Wars movies I decided to write 100 word summaries of them. I managed to complete the following, in this order:

  1. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope in 100 words
  2. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story in 100 words
  3. Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace in 100 words
  4. Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones in 100 words

Let’s jump right into The Empire Strikes Back. I found this one a bit intimidating for there are so many good, memorable scenes, but I’m quite happy with the result, and it didn’t even take too much time after all.

Imperial probe finds rebels on Hoth. Luke is temporarily captured by a wampa. He passes out on the snow field as Kenobi’s ghost tells him to meet Yoda in Dagobah. Han finds Luke, keeps him warm in tauntaun’s intestines. AT-ATs attack, rebels lasso them down and escape. Luke flies to Dagobah. A funny creature turns out to be Yoda. Han & al. are captured by Vader in Bespin, Han is frozen in carbonite. Luke foresees suffering, challenges Vader, loses his hand. Vader reveals he’s Luke’s father. Lando grows a spine, helps others escape. Falcon rescues Luke hanging beneath Cloud City.
