Dave Prowse, Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker and Jeremy Bulloch were legends on comic con circuit and to their credit, they were elderly men in these convention years. Yeah, you could argue it was easy cash, but the lot of them were gentlemen and so friendly. Never pre-madonna, never rude, never unpleasant - and would chat and pose for free. Others I've encountered are very sharp and not in it for the fun. I won't mention names, but - Anthony Head! lol

I have had such a wrong picture of David Prowse. He seems to be a very nice person. A good storyteller and has a great sense of humor.

Genuinely one of the lovliest people you could ever meet. I'm a bigtime StarWars fan, so I'm biased, but he was a true gent. I said it when I met him in 2014 and I say it now he's gone thanks to the wicked disease the world is punished by of late. I didn't queue to pay for an autograph, I just happened to be near him as I came out of a toilet as he was being wheeled in. He said hello and I smiled and said hello. Minutes later I was filming the StarWars stand with my phone and he waved and beckoned me over. Went over and chatted with him. Awe-struck!! He loved that though. He loved being a nice touch. In the same way he talks about his years as the Green Cross Code Man. He was just a private family man who happened upon sucess in the public eye, but he never revelled in it.

@nicholasjanke34762 жыл бұрын
David Prowse had another great sci fi role in Frankenstein And The Monster From Hell. Very underrated actor. Peter Cushing also was in that film. Prowse was able to display more acting talent in that film than as Darth Vader or the mysterious muscle man in A Clockwork Orange.

I realize there are two sides to every issue, but I still believe what Lucas did to Dave Prowse was pretty shitty and petty, regardless of his reason. It reflects quite poorly on Lucas.

+Nicholas Dickens I think you're being a little unfair to Lucas. He has given a bunch of his money to various charities and as bonuses to cast and crew. He's not a total jerk, at least.
@UberTankred7 жыл бұрын
I still don't understand this charity charade people talk about when arguing in favor of someone's character. Giving to charity doesn't cost you a dime, it is tax detuctible. The real effect is, that instead of giving it to the government, so that they can build roads and bridges and maintain the military these assholes give it to Scientology, where the money simply evaporates.

Yea George might not be a bad person but it would make him look like a great guy if him and David just reconciled their differences. They could sit down and have coffee some day IDK. David has been shafted. That is unfair, He is the one and only Vader. Just like Danny DeVito was the only true Penguin in Batman.

SO wonderful to see the two BIG men of Star Wars sans costumes, especially David Prowse. I of course don't know all the details, but whatever happened, I hated how Lucasfilms reportedly banned Prowse from appearing at SW conventions, etc. It also sucked that it wasn't HIM we saw when Vader was unmasked; that was a dirty shame on Lucas' part.

@Steambull18 жыл бұрын
Not that I'd want to change anything about the original cuts NOW, but I do think that Prowse should've had the mask reveal scene for himself back in the day, after playing the character for so many years. Listening to the actors AND Lucas in interviews, it really seems like Richard Marquand was the weak link in ROTJ - the experience had been very much the opposite for the cast while filming Empire with the great Irvin Kershner, and apparently Lucas had to be in set for ROTJ every day due to Marquand's inexperience with special effects.
@freddytheplatypus8265 жыл бұрын
i think they were going on the basis for having an emotional performance. Not to say David Prowse wouldn't do it, but i just get the feeling they picked Sebastian Shaw for a reason because of his expressions
