Darth Vader used to call Luke "young Skywalker". Emperor still does, but Vader now calls him "my son". It's a great little indicator of what's going on inside him. A forerunner for the emotional agonising we see from him in the denouement. The prequels and sequels just don't quite have those subtleties. They outright state things. Sometimes incredibly heavily handedly.

That's why he ignited Luke's lightsaber - to break Luke's concentration. That why Vader realized and commented on how powerful Luke had become.

Cassie, your reaction to see Luke getting zapped over and over by the Emperor, while Vader just stood and watched, was EXACTLY like mine was when I saw this film on opening day. A little backstory - I'd been patiently awaiting the day ROTJ opened since 1980, as I loved (and still love) THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK immensely. During the intervening years, I'd become friends with some guys who went to my high school who were also huge Star Wars fans (one went on to work in special effects on several movies & TV shows and later co-founded a CGI effects company), and we agreed to meet at this one big theater in Southern California (where we all lived) on opening day. I showed up at around 8 pm the night before, only to find out that the midnight and 3 am showings were sold out, and my friends had been able to get tickets to the 3 am showing. I was able to get a ticket to the 9 am showing, though, and since they were such good buddies (and huge fans), they also got tickets to the 9 am showing too, so we could see it all together, and after spending the night in line with dozens of other dedicated Star Wars fans, sleeping for maybe 2 or 3 hours max on a concrete step outside the theater with my sleeping bag and my pillow (inside a Star Wars pillowcase), after seeing how excited they were after the 3 am showing, but not spoiling it for me, and getting more and more excited myself for what I was about to see, we all went in to the 9 am show with our belongings and got seated. I still remember to this day, when the Emperor was literally killing Luke, and seeing Vader just watch, me literally SCREAMING at the screen along with everyone else (and the sound was so loud inside the auditorium I could barely hear my own screaming) "DO SOMETHING!" (just like you did!), thinking to myself "no, they CAN'T end it this way!," and then seeing Vader seize the Emperor......WE. WENT. BERSERK. I swear to you, Cassie, you have never seen 1000 exhausted Star Wars nerds go absolutely insane with joy inside a movie theater like we did that day, May 25,1983. I can only imagine what we looked like, just spazzing out like we too were being hit with millions of volts of electricity, ready to literally start bouncing off the theater auditorium walls. I even remember the sound that came out of me. It was something like a cat doing an impersonation of an opera soprano being strangled underwater. It was just a moment of pure unadulterated ecstasy. You know, just for fun, kind of as a follow-up to all these Star Wars reactions you've done, I'd really like to see you go to a Star Wars convention one day and react to the fans, especially the fans in costume. I think you might be surprised at how many female fans there are in Star Wars fandom.

@@supermantrickshots "The cool thing is that everyone can have their likes and dislikes." no it's not. You can't have the original untouched by crazy senile George nowadays in 4K or bluray, so no, not everyone can have their likes and dislikes. Zoomers like you can have the piece of garbage that is called the special edition, which sadly was what she saw. But the real rebels and the real resistance have the despecialized edition in blu ray quality, which is way better than any crap that Lucas invented in the 90s. By the way, her reaction at 16:15 shows exactly what we original purists are talking about. She never saw the movies, she thinks the special effects done in the 80s are the special effects added by George in the 90s...(that's how good they stand in time, I mean it's a joke... it looks like made by amateurs, just like the "Noooo") I mean, she is the proof that the crappy cgi was horrible and doesn't stand even today. I mean this movie, out of all the 3 originals, was the one that got more destroyed by crazy george. Jabbas palace music is atroucious, cgi horrible on any standard, he destroyed this movie. No, you can't have likes or dislikes when you change art, if Leonardo Da Vinci would come back from his grave and put a mustache on mona lisa, gioconda, or some eye brows, it wouldn't be the same thing.

"I don't know, fly casual" - Best line of the movie. Luke knew he had a connection with Leia already. He confused his sensing the Force in her with love. The huge flaw in this consistency of force ghosts is that from everything written after this movie, Jedi died like everyone else. Only 3 Jedi knew the secret to becoming a force ghost, so Anakin never would have learned how. Making it impossible for him to have appeared at the end of this movie. That's why you don't try to force movies you write decades later to match the originals.

The speeder bike chase is actually a pretty cool trick. They way they shot it was to walk through a redwood forest with a steady cam shooting one frame per second, so when you play it back at normal speed, it looks like your whipping through the forest. Totally original, no CG except for blue screen, as shot in the 80s. Edit: also, this movie came out in 1983, the first prequel came out 16 years later in 1999. The prequels get a lot of hate, some deserved, some not, but I think if you're willing to go along with them, they're a fun ride with a bit of tragedy thrown in. Enjoy them when you get to them, glad to see you embracing the galaxy far far away.

@Mugthraka 2 жыл бұрын

The only real issues with the prequels are that the dialogues arn't that good, its a lot of expostion and people talking about stuff, but you don't really feel much about what they're talking about. Lucas said it himself that he was a Storyteller, but a bad dialogues writter. The difference is that with the OG trilogy, he was younger, and some of the cast was his age or older, Ford for instance, helped rewrite some of the dialogues so that they felt more natural, cause HE was helping the casting team to give the cast their lines During the casting process of the first movie (thats how he finaly got Han's part by the way, since Lucas din't want him in it at first) So each characters dialogues had inputs of their actors and other people, wich in the end helped it feel more organic and natural. By the time the Prequels came, Lucas had that Demi-God of Cinema Aura and reputation, HE was the Dude that Made Star wArs, one of the Most profitable franchise in the history. So No one on set in the prequels ever dared to say anything about the corny and cheesy dialogues or the exposition dumps and how unnatural it felt. Specially not the Younger cast, like Nathalie portman who was like 17-18 at the time, and the older cast members respected him too much to say anything and thougth it would be fine. Cause outside of that, the movies arn't bad, some plot holes here and there, but the action and environements are cool and it has many Strong Moments, specially in EP3

When Luke really got mad at Vader, started going after him out of pure hatred, and that music... and the fact that this was his own father he was trying to kill, I got chills and started to cry. I was 13, but it was just too much. I loved my father and kept imagining going after him like that. It still chokes me up all these years later! Now I’m 51. And amazingly, I had a very vivid dream about the time Jedi came out. I dreamed Luke was fighting Vader around a huge lava lake and had to destroy Vader/Anakin. Then, several years later Revenge of the Sith came out and my dream kind of came true! Weird. I just wish we could have seen an actual Jedi training show/scene where Luke trains Leia in the force. Since Disney messed up this series so badly we never really got that, and Luke’s entire struggle and character was completely crapped on. Sorry, that’s how I feel, and yes I had a teen crush on the princess and really wanted to see her as a Jedi fighting side by side with her brother Luke and husband Han Solo. That dream was never realized on screen. Too bad.

I'm with you on that one 100 percent! The sequels crapped on ALL their characters, not just the OGs, unfortunately. I would have given an ear and an eye to see Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, etc. etc. get a proper story to present. They're clearly all incredibly hyped to be in Star Wars and they were playing their hearts out in TFA, to try to compensate for the lack of story. Utter shame how they- how WE were all treated by Lucasfilm/Disney.

@ghostbeetle2950 7 ай бұрын

@Dio-xo9rv I don't think that's completely fair to the new cast - they were genuinely happy to be chosen for the new SW chapter, and IMO played their hearts out trying to fill those terrible characters with life in TFA - but to each their own, man. I can completely understand anybody who is so bitter about the whole mess they just want to burn everything down. And I am NOT arguing that the Disney movies could somehow "be salvaged", or that they weren't completely bad. They were.

@michaelminch5490 5 ай бұрын

I don't see Luke's final attack against Vader as being out of pure hatred. Remember, Vader had just insinuated that if Luke died, Leia could possibly be turned. Vader threatened Luke's friend, whom he had just discovered was also his sister. Luke was protecting her - "STAY THE FCK AWAY FROM MY SISTER!!!" Yes, rage and hate were involved, but the overwhelming, driving emotion was love for his sister. That's what saved him from falling to the Dark Side.

Little Trivia for you: When George Lucas made the original Star Wars he violated SAG rules by not including opening credits. But no one did anything about it because no one really expected Star Wars to be as successful as it was. 3 years later, when he made Empire Strikes Back again he did not include opening credits. This time SAG sued him, but lost. The courts decided that because SAG didn't care enough about the rule to enforce it with Star Wars, they could not enforce it later with other movies. SAG = Screen Actor's Guild BTW.

It's an interesting historical turning point for movies in general. If you look at all the older movies from before Star Wars was released, they all have opening credits. In fact - many movies have extremely long opening credits - and NO END CREDITS (other than the obligatory "The End" card to tell the movie patrons the show is over). There was a transitionary period in the late 70s/early 80s - some movies kept the traditional opening credits. Some didn't. Some went halfway and had some opening credits and then a longer end credits sequence. and then most movies moved over to having only cursory opening credits that just showed the production company and studio and maybe the director/producer and the lead actors. With everyone and everything else relegated to the end credits. Some movies drop the opening credits entirely. But yeah - that was entirely due to Star Wars. Another interesting note - there used to be some music played before even the opening credits began. Called an "Overture" it would consist of the major themes of the movie soundtrack as a medley. Or sometimes a piece of music that was evocative of the soundtrack, while not being directly anything that would play during the movie. The Black Hole and Star Trek: The Motion Picture are - to the best of my knowledge - the last two movies that ever had an Overture played before the start of the film.

Vader realized Luke was his son the moment the word got out which rebel actually destroyed the original Death Star (Luke Skywalker). Upon hearing the name of the rebel champion, Vader (aka Anakin Skywalker) immediately knew. He didn't immediately know about Leia for a couple of reasons; one he didn't know his wife had twins, and two, Leia's last name is Organa (her adopted parents' name), not Skywalker.

Hutts are some of my favourite species in Star Wars. Totally amoral, resistant to the Force and utterly brilliant. They were able to keep their section of space free from Imperial control through bribery of Imperial officials. Jabba was repeatedly stiffed by Han, so he had to make an example of him. In "Legends"material, the Hutts put a death mark on anyone who kills one of them(Zorba, Jabba's father, tried to have Leia killed and it took years for her to be given forgiveness by the Hutts.) "The Emperor is dead?" JJ Abrams plays reverse Uno card.

@Osprey850 2 жыл бұрын

I don't know, because the film was originally titled "Revenge of the Jedi" and Lucas reportedly changed it because he felt that it wasn't appropriate for a Jedi to seek revenge. I guess that you can say that Vader ultimately got "revenge" on the Emperor, but Lucas was pretty straight forward with his titles (especially "The Empires Strikes Back" and "Attack of the Clones"), so it's hard for me to imagine that this was the one exception.
