Empire Strikes Back Greatest Movie Of All Time

What is the greatest movie of all time? That's the question that Empire Magazine put out to their readers. As one could imagine from such a hot topic question, Empire received hundreds of thousands of responses to what was their first reader's poll in six years. When Empire last conducted their poll in 2008, The Godfather finished in the #1 spot. However, it appears as if their reader's tastes have changed a little bit in six years. For the 2014 poll, Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back took the #1 position. Could all the excitement over the original cast returning for Star Wars Episode VII have given the Star Wars franchise a lift? As far as comic book movies, Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight was the highest ranked superhero film, finishing in third place. Christopher Nolan actually had two films place in the top ten, as Inception finished in tenth place. Other highlights on the list include: Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope was ranked in 6th place, The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring was ranked in 7th place, The Avengers was ranked in 16th place, The Dark Knight Rises was ranked in 72nd place, Superman: The Movie was ranked in 121st place, Batman Begins was ranked in 138th place, Watchmen was ranked in 153rd place, Clerks was ranked in 169th place, Sin City was ranked in 182nd place, Captain America: The Winter Solder was ranked in 183rd place, Kick-Ass was ranked in 190th place, Iron Man was ranked in 239th place, The Crow was ranked in 241st place, Iron Man 3 was ranked in 242nd place, Scott Pilgrim Vs.
