The Empire Strikes Back ends on a tragic note for Luke and his pals. Not only does Luke now know Darth Vader is his father, he also knows Vader knows that Yoda knows that Obi-Wan knew the whole time. In addition, he’s lost a hand, Han is a statue, and the Empire is still running the galaxy exactly the same as they were at the beginning of the film. Not only has Luke failed to impact any change, he and his friends are worse off than they were when the film began. Maybe next time he should heed the advice of his dead Jedi master who can physically project himself from beyond the grave.
