Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back Gets An Honest Trailer

Star Wars fans are getting ready for the first standalone movie release in the long-running franchise's history, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

In the meantime, fans can revisit what is the most critically-acclaimed film in the entire franchise, Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, in a new Honest Trailer.

This is one of the least bombastic Honest Trailers ever released, as the narrator himself admits that The Empire Strikes Back is a near-perfect sequel and that he's struggling to find things to nitpick.

He finds a few things, though, including the relationship between Leia and Luke, which seems significantly closer than siblings, Han Solo's knack for pointing, and Yoda's pointless flipping around.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story opens in theaters on Friday, Dec. 16.
