Seriously, the "like my father before me" line is one of, for me, the most emotionally powerful moments in SW, as well as in any movie. It shows Luke's forgiveness for his father as well as the pride and respect he has in his father's accomplishments before turning.
I love this moment, the music really compliments the scene so well. This isn't Luke taking it to Vader like a badass... its Luke giving into his hate, his anger and thus slipping to the darkside. It's not a victorious moment but a tragic one. As much as I crap on the prequels I love Revenge of the Sith the most because the reason for Anakin's fall is the same as Luke's close call... its the fear of losing someone you care for. That's the thing i love about the first six star wars films. There is this constant struggle as to if Love and Attachment a good thing or bad thing, sure the fear of loss of a loved one was Anakin's fall and almost Luke's BUT on the flipside it was Luke's love for his father that helped Vader realise this love for his son and that motivated him to save Luke.
@@PinkRoses19-k1q Exactly! If you look at stories from the now non canon legends ancient Jedi were not required to have no relationships, instead they allowed relationships like in the case of the Sunriders. They encouraged healthy relationships where they both would learn and teach each other. So that the bond they shared was both in love and the force. To me when the Jedi outlawed romantic relationships they set themselves up for a fall. It’s like any family that has strict upbringings, you are gonna have the occasional kid who wants to “rebel” in the sense of the word, to taste of the forbidden fruit. Because it’s not allowed tough they do so in secret. In Anakin’s case had the relationship been allowed to be public he wouldn’t have needed to vent to Palpatine about his visions of Padme dying, he could have gone to the council or obi-wan. They would have been able to tell him that the future is not set in stone and the vision was one of many possible outcomes. Heck if it wasn’t the Jedi also making it to where children are taken from families and raised by the order perhaps they could have gone back and paid to get shimi out of her debt to wato which would have prevented her eventual tragic death which set the ball rolling on anakin’s turn to the dark side. So in reality had it not been for the order and their rules who knows if the republic would have fallen and the order wiped out.
This scene is amazing... Vader using Anakin's need to protect his friends on Luke, because he sees they're the same, and then Luke realizing the same thing as he looks at his hand... that he's making the same bad choices his father did... and then, his line "I am a Jedi, like my father before me," because Luke realizes that Vader can make the same choice he just did... he throws the lightsaber away, because the next choice isn't his. It's Vader's. Just great writing.
This scene is amazing for woke millennials who don't know any better. The Rise of Skywalker is a woke mess. The story should've ended with Return of the Jedi, not continue with some woke mess that disregards Luke's sacrifice and Vader's sacrifice.
Luke swinging wildly with the chaotic score in the background gives me chills every time. If I’m not mistaken, we never hear this music again. Which leads me to believe it’s Dark Side Luke’s theme?
No. Luke is not going to the dark side at all. He attacks, yes, but not from hate or rage. He attacks to prevent the threat to Leia. Luke knows how he hurt finding his aunt and uncle murdered, but Leia had to watch not just her family, but her entire world obliterated in front of her. Her emotional wounds are way deeper than his, and she is much more at risk. And Leia has not been taught about the Force, let alone how to recognize the dark side. The proof is Luke pulls back from the killing stroke against Vader before Palpatine starts to cackle. If he had crossed,, he would have finished off his rival. The dark side does not have room for feelings of loyalty or love. Only rage and ambition.
@@MGower4465it’s an attack based on fear and anger. It’s precisely what it is. Why do you think the Emperor is laughing. He was on the edge. He just didn’t cross the threshold. See the comment below, the actual name of the music is “the darkside beckons”
I remember seeing this in the theater in 1983 as a kid. The audience was going nuts throughout the fight and absolutely lost it when Luke cut off Vader's hand.
Luke confronts Vader. Not a Jedi yet. Luke defends himself from Vader. Not a Jedi yet. Luke defeats Vader. Not a Jedi yet. Luke, in full view of Palpatine, defies evil, let's his father live, and tells the Emperor he failed to turn him to the Dark Side of the Force, countering vengeance and greed with mercy and compassion. In that moment ... he became a full Jedi Knight, confronted with evil....and defeating it.
Sofiereacts asking why wouldn’t Palpatine want them both - Yoda answers in TPM: “Always two (Sith), there are…no more, no less…a master, and an apprentice…”
If Leia was taught to be a Sith from Vader, she would have been the most powerful Sith to ever be in the living Force. Even more feared than Sidious and Vader put together. Luke sensed that, and his fear of that made him lash out the way he did. He didn't want that to happen to her.
You're making some very interesting leaps there. Nothing in this saga suggests any of what you're supposing - it's purely something that you manufactured. Luke didn't lash out because he sensed that Leia would be "the most powerful Sith" - he was protecting her from ever being subjected to or used by Vader or the dark side, period.
George Lucas has stated that Luke was more powerful than Vader and Sidious in return of the jedi. Really appreciate these compilations. R.I.P James Earl Jones. 🙏😪
Luke saying that line was to show people he sees his father as Jedi...not a bad guy or Sith..to remind him of who he was...before...Luke throwing the lightsaber away was to allow Anakin/Darth have something he hadn't had in a long time. Choice! Also, Luke standing up to the emperor showed Anakin...he can too. He has the strength to do it he just never realized it.
9:22 Quite the contrary, I'd say she'd fall easier than Luke. She's a lot more like their father in terms of impulsiveness and being driven by emotion.
It's kind of sad how many people point out that Vader is "mostly machine", rather than understanding how it is he ended up in that condition to begin with.
I've watched Chinese Hong Kong, Mainland China, Taiwanese, and Japanese Martial Arts films since the 70's. It always strikes me how Western people are always "oooh" and "aaahh" over Star Wars Lightsaber fights. I once saw a Japanese Kendo sword practitioner react to lightsaber fighting. He said "It's like child fighting." HAHAhahaha!! XD
As another comment stated a theory that Darth Vader started to have second thoughts about being on the Dark Side of the Force since Empire Strikes Back. Then, in this episode, he baited Luke to strike him (I think that both of them linked their minds) as Luke thinking about Leia. Even though Luke gotten very angry with his father, I don't think Luke don't want to kill his father because he would Palpatine's puppet. That's why he struck Darth's hand holding the saber and seeing robotic prosthetic arm (remember that Palpatine had his medical droids added all robotic prosthetic arms (hands) and legs.
I kinda laugh when all these reactors say "what! Leia would have less of a chance of turning to the Dark side" NOT true, while Luke looks like Anakin when he was younger and Leia looks very much like their mother Padme, LUKE has the personality and heart like Padme and LEIA has that fiery spirit and sometimes emotional volatility like her father. While everyone, even the most committed Jedi have some of the Dark side in them, Leia was more likely to turn to the Dark side than Luke. That is talked about in the EU novels. Granted it would take a lot and a very specific circumstance for Leia to be tempted, if you compare Luke's chances of being turned to Leia's, she would turn before Luke would
I watched this scene a thousand times. I love when Lukes yells "Darth" Vaders instant head turn, then a "gasp" taking a deep breath, like i poked a bear. Imo when Luke cuts off Vaders hand, he turned to the Dark Side, just his eyes and look on his face, then on his face and eyes you can see him come back to the light. Just a amazing scene.
Dead wrong. He sees Vader's severed hand, and then his own mechanical hand. He realizes he is falling to the dark side. He is becoming Vader, just like the vision in the cave suggested. Kill Vader you become Vader. Lucas has spoonfed people this information for 4 decades. How on earth did you miss it?
Did Hefner just call Luke an off-brand Thanos and talk that much in this scene and still enjoy it? There's problem solving and reacting but there's also I dunno experiencing the movie? There's usually not this much talking, as Sam W would say...
That is my most favorite line of all the movies I ever watched in my entire life “I am a Jedi, like my father before me”. I have a most favorite reaction to that line too, which I did not find among those in your compilation, so if you make updates to your videos, you can include it: ruclips.net/video/rdtoLZEqRII/видео.htmlsi=TRs5eXBisoprZ_Ny&t=1700 What you are doing is simply great, so far you are the only one who does that, I didn’t see anyone else on RUclips coming up with the idea to put together the best reactions to the best parts of the best movies - million congratulations.

Absolutely amazing actor. Irreplaceable. He will be sorely missed.
Do not mourn him, instead, rejoice, for he has become one with the Force!

The Emperor's mistake was interrupting Luke. He was gonna do it.

Love your compilations! 😎
It's an amazing scene. One of the best in cinematography. 😮🎉
Now we need reactions to Anakin's force ghost appearing next to Obi-Wan and Yoda.
Luke's anger is more stronger than his father.
Because Luke’s love is with his twin bloodline, and his father is based on his love for his love páděme
for the thousandth time - Luke and Leia are twins! Is there anyone left who watched the movie and didn't understand it??? 😂
Don’t tell the, than Vader his their fathers that will blow their minds 😊

Wrong.
3:14 what do you mean "off brand Thanos" we all know that Palapatine came before Thanos
I am glad you made this channel.
Alex Hefner looks like the dad from "Coraline".
NO bad guy is scarier than Vader. NOT ONE. Between that mask, the voice and the breathing.
3:58 Don't worry, dad, you can get a new one they're very realistic.😂😂😂
