    I know, that the more recent ones being released are supposed to be Episodes 1-3 and the earlier ones are supposed to be 4-6 but is that the 2nd or 3rd film out of the first three?

    sorta...the whole series is really about the fall and redemption of anakin (luke's father). he ultimately is persuaded by his son's love and faith in him that there is still "good in him" despite all the evil trappings. and he is ultimately the one who kills the emperor, who is the chief bad guy in the story.

    This is easy... 'The man with no name' in the Eastwood westerns!

    Honorable mention to the character Tuco played by Eli Wallach in GBU.

    Yes!

    "I'm an angel. I kill newborns while their mamas watch. I turn cities into salt. And occasionally, when I feel like it, I tear little girls apart. And from now till kingdom come... the only thing you can count on... in your existence... is never understanding why."

    Usual Suspects: Kevin Spacey as Verbal Kent and Keiser Sose. The dichotomy of the two characters is unbelievable.
    "And then he showed these men of will, what will really is."

    That film (this being one of the examples that illustrates the difference between a movie and a film) also includes one of the most hilarious lines in a movie related to a sniper by (not the best actor in the world) Stephen Baldwin as he counts out his targets..
    "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.... Oswald was a ***."

    One of my favorites is Samuel L. Jackson as Jules in Pulp Fiction. "Well allow me to retort!"

    Another is the previously mentioned Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter in Silence of the Lambs.
