Favorite Scene in Original 3 Star Wars.

[spiderrogue]

oh..and the at-ats on hoth..love that stuff....esp. on surrond sound and a big screen....

[toys2cool]

Ah---toys2cool---my signature line---good catch---so good that I'll
threadjack for a moment here

I was watching the MALLRATS scene on YouTube that had the CHALLENGE
OF THE SUPERFRIENDS characters delivering the MALLRATS lines and I
thought SINESTRO delivering that line was so interestingly funny that I used
it as my sig here --figuring that somebody would catch on sooner than you
have. It's been my sig for many months now.

Again---great catch toys.

I can't believe I never noticed it before,I would've known as soon as I saw it what it was.It's one of my favorite movies and parts of the movie

Good stuff bro

*adjusts glasses in a nerdly fashion*

The opening battle and Vaders appearence on the Tantive 5.

The name of the ship is the Tantive IV, aka the Rebel Blockade Runner.


Luke looking up at the sky at the two moons in New Hope.
The Star Wars theme is glorious in that scene.
It's a perfect scene.

Those are suns.
That's the Force theme.
I agree.

I wouldn't say that the following were my favorite moments from the movies, but when I look back I remember being in the theatre and thinking. Wow! They can't do that!

IV - Vader strikes down Kenobi
V - C-3PO sees something and then gets blown apart
Han encrusted and then not saved before the movie is over!!!!
Luke faces Vader and loses his hand
VI - Yoda dies - no cool face off with Vader (like I'd been hoping for from 1980 to 83)
Luke is Leia's brother (really didn't think that was coming and I was on an information blackout before the "last" movie came out)

[Vortigern99]

My favorite scenes are probably the shootout in the Death Star prison block in the original film, the duel on the bridge between Luke and Vader in ESB, and the speeder bike chase in ROTJ.

The opening battle and Vaders appearence on the Tantive 5.

The Imperial walkers attacking the Rebel base on Hoth.

The final 3 way battle on Endor. Rebel fleet vs Emperial fleet, The battle on the Endor moon and the Battle between Luke, Vader and the Emperor.

I thought it was the Tantive IV

[Bo8a_Fett]

lol! is there a slip in that scene?

How about in part 1 when Leia isn't wearing a bra

Ah man...that suit she was wearing with no undies on....at 11 that was when I got my first real stirrings...lol. I always prefered her in that white dress at the ceremony
...especially when she bends over to slip the medal on.
Apparently she had to wear tape over her nipples for all the scenes in that white hoody dress....and she (Carrie) held a raffle with the winner helping her take the tape off....she'd set it up so that Harrison would win as they were having a fling at the time...

[Bo8a_Fett]

I love the ewoks

I love ewoks too...deep fried, roasted, grilled, sliced and in a nice sandwich with some crispy lettuce.....mm..mm..mmmm

[Bo8a_Fett]

The audible Rumble of Vader using the Force in the Death Star conference room...astounding use of sound to enhance the images.
Reminded me of the feeling you get watching high powered military jets taking off....or the bass being played very loud at a gig.

Hmmmm....

The Death Star trench. That whole fight felt... real. Moreso than more "realistic" movies. It's one of the few times I've ever seen a radio check before combat, and crew adjusting and confirming their instruments.... all things you'd do before a real life battle.

The AT-Ats are a close second.

The Cantina scene is the single greatest moment in movies IMHO, tons of freaky aliens listening to some ragtime space-jazz. Jabbas Palace is a close second, I always loved when Jabba eats the big frog like creature. Compactor scene is great and very suspensefully when your 4 years old, wondering where that monster was going to pop up next.

[raider5gt]

Mos Eisley catinna when Ben Kenobi chops Walrus Mans arm off (he might look old but handy with a sabre )

Got to be the AT-AT walkers attack on the Rebel base.

Millenium Falcon and Wedge fly into the Deathstar to destroy the reactor (some mad tight flying there)

[Earth 2 Chris]

As a kid, I really dug it when Luke came into Jaba's palace all bad-arse. That whole rescue scene is great. And yes Boba Fett gets his punk-rear handed to him and then screams like a girl. That's a case where a cult following developed around a costume, not a character.

As an adult, I like a much more subtle scene best. I know it gets mentioned a lot, but the scene in Empire when Han is about to be frozen in carbonite, and Leia says "I love you", and Han responds, "I know". Apparently, Harrison Ford just made that up on the spot. Man, he's a great ad-libber. That and the scene in Raiders where he shoots the Cairo swordsman (also ad-libbed) are two of my favorite movie moments.

The costume (and lack of extensive dialogue) WAS the character--and that's what
made him so intriguing ala The Man With No Name.

Those kinds of lines are not often written...but spring up in shooting when
everyone realizes---jeez the line that is actually written is a lame line.

"I love you too" ???? Geez.

[Brue]

It took all of 30 seconds to be hooked on star wars in 1977 as the star destroyer passed overhead in the opening scene.

I was lost forever in the story when luke was looking yearningly out on the dual sunset.
