Opening Crawl
Luke Skywalker has returned to his home planet of Tatooine in an attempt to rescue his friend Han Solo from the clutches of the vile gangster Jabba the Hutt.
Little does Luke know that the GALACTIC EMPIRE has secretly begun construction on a new armored space station even more powerful than the first dreaded Death Star.
When completed, this ultimate weapon will spell certain doom for the small band of rebels struggling to restore freedom to the galaxy…
Plot
In the movie's opening scene, droids R2-D2 and C3-PO come to the palace of Jabba the Hutt, the galaxy's biggest crimelord (who is holding the frozen Han Solo prisoner), with a message from Luke Skywalker telling Jabba to release Han. Leia comes to the palace disguised as a bounty hunter and frees Han from the carbonite, but is captured by Jabba and made a slave. When Luke comes to the palace, Jabba drops him into a pit where he keeps a monster called a rancor. When Luke kills the monster, the enraged Jabba tells Luke, Han, and Chewbacca that they will be killed by being thrown into the Sarlacc pit.
Meanwhile, the Emperor has arrived on the partially constructed Death Star to survey the final phase of its building.
When Jabba's sail barge and the desert skiffs reach the pit, R2-D2, on the barge, throws Luke his lightsaber. In the ensuing battle and excitement, Leia strangles Jabba with her slave chain and helps Luke blow up the barge with a deck cannon.
Luke heads for Dagobah in his X-wing fighter and Han, Leia, R2, C3-PO, and Lando Calrissian join the Rebel fleet in the Millenium Falcon. Yoda, on Dagobah, tells Luke that it is true: Vader is his father and that to truly become a Jedi he must face him. Yoda, 900 years old, dies shortly afterward and Luke joins the Rebels, who have discovered that the Empire is constructing the Death Star above the forest moon of Endor. On Endor is a shield generator which protects the Death Star until its weapons systems are operational.
Using a captured Imperial shuttle, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Leia, and Luke, with a strike team of Rebels go to Endor with the intent to destroy the shield generator. Unbeknownst to them, the Emperor has set a huge number of Stormtroopers in ambush around the generator. The strike team meets up with some native tribes called "Ewoks" which are friendly and promise them
