#1 should be that storm troopers aren't clone troopers
lol or maybe only you, me, and that other 4 people who liked this video didnt know it
Actually, they are. I'm Assuming you didn't watch ROTS
umm no they arent
Pong Krell clone troopers became storm troopers after order 66 however later on the empire started recruiting regular people
*sigh* ok thoose were really clone- stormtroopers
Another explanation for the storm troopers aim is that all the main characters are protected by the plot
Ahh, plot. The strongest armor there is.
I would agree but I saw the last jedi
The force
May the plot be with you
Yeah even after a new hope their aim is terrible
People say “Luke, I am your father” rather than “No, I am your father” because out of context, it makes more sense. If you just say “no, I am your father” without prior referencing the scene or the movie then what meaning does it carry?
Nibble Mcnibbs that’s actually a great explanation of why people remember it like that
It was , No Luke, I Am Your Father but they changed it the very end where the guy in the vid says that it was false is a lie I 100% remember it being NO LUKE, I AM YOUR FATHER 10000000%
@Brandon Wakefield Mandela was released but people remember seeing the 90's movie Cry Freedom where Denzel as South African Anti Apartheid leader Steven Biko died. All Mandela effects are pretty easily explainable. Things people never noticed, misremembered or heard wrong. Sex and (sounds like "in" because no one emphasizes that word). But of course you can win any argument by saying your memory is perfect it's the universe that changed a lame detail.... for no particular reason. I think Mandela Effect, Flat Earthers, Anti Vaxxers, 911 truthers and moon landing hoaxers all are the beginning or the Age of Idiocracy.
No it does make sense because Luke had just said “you killed my father”
@@calendar7143 are u dump or just play it. It does make sense when u see the scene. He's hol point is that without the previous line it does not.
The main fact everyone gets wrong about Star Wars:
*”It’s not ‘Jedis’, it’s ‘Jedi’.”*
Yep I’m glad u said that coz that really irritates me too xx
Personally, I have a minor seizure every time someone says “VIN number.” The struggle is real, people.
Yeah, it's like deer, or fish, the singular is the same as the plural.
Just gunna throw it out there but (for the Brits)... Tesco is singular.
🤯
Steve Ferson , we already knew this but technically if you are referring to more than one store u would say Tesco’s also don’t try and correct us British ppl when you Americans spell and pronounce everything completely wrong in the English language so pipe down.
If you bitched about C3PO’s red arm, I would like to remind everyone that C3PO’s head was severed and reattached to a battle droid.
Shadow Kid SE And that he had a silver right leg
They actually explained the parsec thing in Solo, with him going through the Maelstrom to make the run in literally less distance.
I strongly prefer the old expanded universe explanation (legends) to the new canonical retcon. But both are technically correct depending on which canon you are looking at
Isaiah Armour that is a poor explanation. EU was way better
Yup they covered it way before that tho in literature
didnt solo come out after this video
The original EU version was better. But I did like the line in Solo where he claims it was 12 parsecs, and Chewie argues with him, so Han responds with "If you round down, it was 12."
Watched a video on the storm troopers accuracy, they have a 27% hit rate which is actually really good
Can you blame them?
"I can't see a thing in this helmet!" -Luke
Hahahaha.
Nate England The Empire prides itself on impracticality. Vader has what looks like a control panel on his chest. Stormtroopers have dimmed vision and can only look straight ahead. The Death Star is a MASSIVE waste of money and resources. Seems to me they were doing just fine ruling the Galaxy without it. I mean, the Empires biggest defeats involved a Death Star while they struck back just fine without it.
That's because Palpatine had Alzheimer.
They wanted the Death Star for their "fear should rule the Empire" ideology.
"Your move Catholic Church"
priceless
As a Catholic, I genuinely grinned at this because that's our doctrine and I'm kinda fine that people who aren't catholic can criticize about this.
1 should be that that 'Han shot first'. Han didn't shoot first, because only Han shot! Greedo never shoots.
when they revised it he did.
yep! You're right!
Richard Harris first out of one is still first
nah: I think first out of one is "the only" ;-)
Greedo and han solo shot at the same time but greedo missed
8:01 Han and bens faces line up perfectly during a cut. Lmao
My master plan worked
Watch a video.

Wow that's some palpatine level mind tricks
He’s too dangerous to be kept alive!!
@@galenmarek8287 IT'S NOT THE JEDI WAY
"No, I'm your father" is just a little too out of context, hence why people say "Luke" instead.
'Even midichlorians actually come from Lucas' earliest plans'
Me: 'No... thats impossible!!'
TheInfamous Quiche kill him or something
James Robert The real quote was “He can’t do that! Shoot him... or something!” BTW I have no problem with midi chlorians
Search your feelings, you know it be true!
@@Mael_Str0M The real quote was “SHE can’t do that! Shoot HER... or something!” Get it right if you're gonna call someone out.
What's the problem? That Just explain why some have acces to the force. The force itself doesn't change with midichlorian
On the 1997 Coruscent scene you can see a statue of Palpatine being toppled.
I thought it was Vader?
GhostofCicero Possibly but I thought it was The Emporer as he had taken over Senate etc. a bit like the Saddam Husein statue when that was pulled down
Nik Turk it was the emperor.
TheRealBandito the rebels liberating the planet
TheRealBandito He was mostly liked by those on the top, they didn't have to suffer through much if anything the Empire did. The lower levels though did not love him, and remember there's thousands of levels with less and less Empiral security the lower you go, so rebel groups did form down there.
I always knew Darth Vader said ”No, I am your father”, but my friends wouldn’t believe me. Hah!
He does say Luke. They took it out for some reason but it was easy because you can't see Vader's mouth move.
@@chips-gw5ho he did not. That was a glitch in the audio, not in the official script
He says "Look, it's your father" in order to distract him... 😁
It's "No, I am your father"
wow u must be soooo smart ahhaah
Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father.
TheMAJCTOP I mean I typed that before watching the video
Explanation for that is quite simple. This line sound weak out of context. People add "Luck" unconsciously to add it.
he told me enough. he told me you killed him.
10:15 i know that!
Obi-wan never told you, what happened with your father?
- He told me enough, he told me you kill him.
- No, i am your father
Same!!
Mandela effect debunked
Luke: Nooooooooooooooo
What happened TO your father?
"No no thats not true thats impossible."
I wonder if "Utini" is a real word
It's treason then...
*AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH*
Do it!
*Insert Archaic Sith Battlecry Here*
At least that's what someone told me it was
chris ingram I am the senate
[YTP] It's trees- then
Try living with that wrong quote when people decide to say it because your name is Luke...
Luke Hi luke...how's your dad?
Oh no. I totally get you! I also have the name of a famous character, and every time I introduce myself, people go "oh, like (character I'm named after)?" Why cant they just understand that after all these years, Im tired of hearing it!!!
Dude I totally get where you're coming from
Yep
Same as someone named Sam in the '40's and '50's after Casablanca was released! ;-)
the reason that everyone gets the "no, I am your father" line wrong is because the audio quality for movies wasn't that great in the '80s, so when people heard that line, the pause between "no" and "I" had the effect that it sounded like "no-ook". So even though Vader pauses, it sounds more like "no LUKE" Listen to the audio queue at 10:21, you can kinda hear the "no-ook" when he pauses.
As a hardcore Star Wars fan, I knew all of these. And I am one of the hardest of hardcore Star Wars fans. And when I say hard, I mean like when you see Leia in her bikini in Episode 6 hard.
Seamus Aindriu O'Coran As hard as you get watching Padmè in her skintight catsuit in the Petranaki arena?
so painfully single then. Got it
Seamus Aindriu O'Coran ooh, want a medal?
Seamus Aindriu O'Coran
THATS GREAT HAHAHAHAHAH
I also knew all of these before watching the video
Did u guys know that the actual name for starwars is pewpew space fight.
Followed by its sequel "Nu huh, I shot you first, also ive got a force field!"
Actually its: BUY OUR TOYS TODAY
Future Priest Patrick that’s the sequel name
Wonder how they created that word,after so many years.Recent discoveries are harder to name
You've got to be a Marine. Lmao
I’ve always known he said No, I am your father. Cause Luke says he(Obi) told me you killed him. Vader instantly answered No, I am your father.
Impressive, most impressive.
"He told me YOU killed him!"
"No...I am your father."
(Not so hard to remember people)
JuggaloSupreme I think people say that just to give context for it.
Luke: Arrrgh!
Vader: There is no escape. Don't make me destroy you. Luke! You do not yet realize your importance, you've only just begun to discover your power! Join me and i will complete your training
With our combined strength we can put an end to this destructive conflict and bring order to the galaxy!
Luke: I'll never join you!
Vader: If you only knew the power of a darkside, Obi wan never told you what happened to your father.
Luke: He told me ENOUGH... He told me YOU killed him!
Vader: No... I AM your father.
Luke: No, no thats not true.Thats impossible!
Vader: Search your feelings YOU KNOW it to be TRUE.
Luke: Nooooooooo. Nooo
Vader: LUKE! You can destroy the Emperor, he has foreseen this, it IS your destiny. Join me and together we can rule the galaxy as father and son... Come with me, it is the only way!
Another thing is people forget is that after Darth vader says “No, I am your father” Luke says “ No, that’s impossible!!” Instead of just “NOOOOOO”
JuggaloSupreme are you fucking stupid
He said “No Luke, I am your father” so technically everyone is correct
3POs leg and Luke I am your father is a Mandela effect.
knew i wasnt gonna be the only one here thinking it.
Let's not forget that, in 7, the raider trying to steal BB-8 (when he meets Rey) is speaking a language involving names of Philadelphia Eagles players.
Derrick Van-Wyk really? If that's true, that's awesome.
Who forgets a simple name as Teedo?
Finding MOMO Because A: I haven't watched the movie in a while. And B: I don't retain every name and detail of every character I see in the film.

Because the Eagles are the shit. Even aliens in different galaxies know that.

Course you did.
The EU covering for "12 parsecs" is just that, cobbling something together to cover.
Ben had asked how FAST the ship was, and Han uses the claim to brag about its speed.
I think going with "Han is just bragging to what he thinks are gullible desert planet bumpkins" is the best way to address it.
The EU?
Stop listening to Nigel Farage lol, he's a fucking moron
There is no "EU". Star Wars Legends, and no longer canon, thank god. Thus is Han's casual bullshit prowess restored. :P
Jeremy Phillips Something tells me that's not going to last for long.
Space AND time are interlinked. Read up on some astrophysics.
Actually, if Obi-Wan knows the context of what the Kessel Run is, which the way it's referenced by others, likely does, it does actually hold up still in that context because the ship needs to be fast enough to escape the pull of gravity to not be pulled in by the blackholes and all. So while it may be a measure of distance, actually also serves as a measure of speed. What he's basically saying is "My ships fast enough to get closer to the black holes in the maw and escape cutting more than 6 parsecs off the trip". Was that the intent of the original line? who knows. Maybe he was try into swindle them, maybe he was boasting about his skills and his ship, either way, not exactly out of character.
And lets also remember that I don't think ANY Star Wars media that is still considered relevant to canon, actually has any measurement of speed beyond light, and not light. Have to bring it in, but Star Trek, this ship goes warp 9, that one is warp 5, both faster than light but there is a number associated that lets you know it's a faster speed in that range, like a mach number. Light speed eems to be light speed in most cases in Star Wars meaning the only speed difference would be below that and again, we get no reference numbers. And what would they even go by? They give us an idea that a ship is faster, but how much? Why do TIE's close in on X-wings the way they do, how is it generally Anakin seems to have modded his fighters for more speed than others, etc. Closest I recall to a true indication of a speed is that Han managed to make a longer trip shorter, likely by being able to take a shorter route that his ship has the speed and agility to use, assuming he isn't just lying.

Doesn't the word "potential " mean anything to you?

gametime x3
I remember watching a grainy old interview with Lucas (mostly on the sound effects), and he admitted to not caring about the technical details. He said he knew there's no sound in space, but there has to be sound in movies. He had no idea how a lightsaber worked or what made a land-speeder float, because he was a storyteller not a scientist.
The no sound in space thing constantly drives me made. Things make sound in space. It's just you wouldn't hear it if you were standing in space, ready to hear it with your ears via the air. But guess what you're not standing in space and there is no air. It's make believe. If you were, you'd be dead.
Coruscant
The idea for the capital of the Empire being a city that covers a whole planet was not original. It was inspired by Trantor, from Isaak Azimov's Foundation series. It was first mentioned in a short story in 1941. The word, 'Coruscant', used by George Lucas as the name of the city/planet, is mentioned in a description of the skies over the Central Worlds in "Pebble in the Sky", (another Azimov Foundation-related book from 1950). Lucas also got the inspiration for the Galactic Empire from Azimov's Foundation stories... Azimov got his inspiration from the Roman Empire.
Actually, though parsec is a unit of measurement instead of time, it makes perfect sense. He was saying he chose the most direct, albeit dangerous, way to do it.
9:46 why is Luke’s lightsaber red and Vader’s blue?
Good eye!
At least fans have Vader's line mostly right. "Beam me up Scotty" on the other hand is not at all correct. It was never said and in fact, Scotty almost never operated the transporters. It was usually unnamed transporter operators.
Actually, in Star Trek IV, Kirk gets close and says, “Scotty, beam me up.”
There were multiple occasions where Scott was operating the transporter
@@geoffroi-le-Hook I did not say he never operated it. I said *almost* never. Also, my main point was that the line was never actually said.
Can we stop using "Everyone" in the titles of these types of lists. It's needlessly combative.
Xhumed it’s hyperbole. It’s a normal and functional literary device. It sounds better and is more attention grabbing then “some probably”. That’s the point.
Guess I have the wrong nickname then..
lol nice name tho.

Yeah. Must not be much of a fan.

Good point.
Did you know that Lucas' 1973 draft idea for Star Wars began,
"This is the story of Mace Windu..."
q. how did mace die?
a. he flew out the windu
Robert Cornhole - Actually the name was spelled "Windy" for his first script.
@@FreeOpenTruth,lame.I think his final name version signifies Hanuman,from Hindu mythology.He was the son of the God of wind-Vaayu,and had a mace-Gadaa
bruh i wish, who cares about luke.
jedi love: imagine you are adolescent with the power to influence peoples minds. you see some hot chick you like. what do you think your subconscious will do? this is why they don't want you to fall in love. you might be forcing someone to love you against their will. this explains why Padme was so awkward and weird around Anakin. and maybe why she died when she "lost" him even though there was nothing wrong with her physically, her mind was broken.
Oooh, ala C'baoth. That's something I never considered.
it takes years of training to master the force and get it to do what you consciously want it to do.
it is like a mutant power. it is there doing what it does whether you know it or not. Jean Grey (of the X-Men) used to throw things around all the time without even knowing it was her doing it. many believe that something like this was the origin of the poltergeist phenomenon.
Anakin was the only human that could pod race because of the force within him. he was born with the force. it was there, doing what it does even if he did not know it.
makz524 Anikin was concieved by the Force. His Mama never had a lover,she was just pregnant,one day.
Its shitty writing. Stop trying to justify it.
Random Ashe You're not just wrong, you're stupid.
The Empire Strikes Back was the best one.
"And the dorky super fans" Bah! *goes back reading Legends Books, especially the Thrawn Trilogy and "The Essential guide to warfare", and "How Star Wars conquered the universe"
"Ask your dad what Vader said in this scene" Ooooh! I know... "No... I AM you father!"... and I did that without looking :P It's my favourite scene from Star Wars... what can you do? :D
If you were a true fan you would still call them EU books
I only name them as legends to avoid the new canon fans to come in "that's not EU! The empire ceased to be due to 'Operation: Cinder'!" Or "It's not EU! It's legends now!"
Operation: Cinder... another thing of these... meh... things... prefer the way it happened in the Old EU... was a bitlike what happened with Alexanders Macedonian empire, splintereing into many successor states. I prefer the ideaof Palpatine intending to rule for ever and not even really taking into account the possibility of dieing (atleast in that situation). Simply "destroy the Empire if I die" seems to me more like a measurement by Disney to have the people have this compelte "Feel good" moment, to give the "new order" the "time it needs" to have it's next utter failure of a WMD (really... stop giving a faction such a WMD like the DS or Starkiller if you blow it up in the same movie... Atleast if you are planning for more movies... it makes it look useless)...
btw... I despise that htey gave palps a given name... "Sheev Palpatine"... by the Emperors black bones... just "Palpatine" had always been enough! Sheev is such a menacing name...
Btw... i watched Hux' speech on YT... i couldn't stop laughing about that little comedy character... none of these "New Order" leaders can compare to the likes of hte Old Man of the Empire, Grand Admiral Pellaeon!
The emphasis is "No, _I_ am your father". Favourite scene indeed...
Attention, irony: I'm so sorry that, as a german, I am more used to the german version the scene where the emphasis from the "I" (Ich) is (atleast partially) carried further, onto the "am" (bin)
undertakernumberone1 Du hast doch Recht! Habe erste mal eben geguckt auf die Deutsche Version. Ich schäme mich.
In your opinion 3-CPO was given a new arm because people would already have him and wouldn't waste money on the exact same model. That's why they changed his arm red
We all know the real reason they changed his arm was so they could sell new C-3PO action figures o those who already had them again. In the last scene of the movie, the arm was even gold again with no explanation!
WTF is 3-CPO?
@@LarryLeeMoniz ACKCHYUALLY there's a comic where they explain why he has a red arm.
3-CPO...yes. Absolutely.
6:50 If I can get somewhere in a route that takes me only 12 miles, versus a route that takes me 18 miles, isn't that better? Ergo, bragging about getting somewhere in 12 parsecs instead of 18 parsecs does actually make sense. It's a trade "run" not a "race".
"No... I am your father." -Darth Vader - circa a long long time ago...
in a galaxy far, far, far, far away
when James Earl Jones was asked about the "Luke, I am your father" line. he said that the script indeed had him say "Luke, I am your father.".. and NOT "No, I am your father." there are multiple takes of him saying both.. but the script actually called for him to say the more widely known one.
Apparently he's wrong. www.imsdb.com/scripts/Star-Wars-The-Empire-Strikes-Back.html
www.students.ic.unicamp.br/~ra116931/esb.txt
My point with these links is that NOWHERE in any of the scripts (which you can find online) does it say "Luke I am your father". Perhaps he just forgot. It's called the Mandela effect.
Actually I think the reason people remember the line as "Luke, I am your father." is pretty simple. Imagine if you told someone the line, "No, I am your father." Unless the person remembered the line exactly they may not know that you're referencing Star Wars. When you add the character Luke into the line, the reference, while technically incorrect, is made much more apparent. So when telling someone the line, you are more likely to say, "Luke, I am your father."
Adding on to ^ Darth Vader being Luke's father has been one of the biggest reveals in last 50 years of cinema, which means that you can pretty much assume that most people know that he is his father even if they haven't seen Star Wars ever. So using the characters name during discussion after this came out (where there was no internet to find out for the next 30 years unless you watch it again or for the first time after hearing about it) makes a lot of sense to why a lot of people (non fans) think it is that line
Epic that's what I've been explaining to be. I'm even in a Facebook argument saying that
I would suppose James Earl Jones was talking about the scene in a more abstract sense, with no intention to repeat the words one by one.
I'd like to add that not only the stormtroopers' aiming skills, but also their armor is, in fact, much better than most people think. They can be incapacitated by a single shot, but they do not die. Thanks to the armor, they usually survive.
as a super star wars fan i knew most of these 😉😀
5:50 why does anakin look like hes about to cry
Probably because he (the actor) knew he still had another movie to make, which was going to basically kill his career.
Because he could have sex but not fall in love lol
@@richard3365 Well, it was the best Star Wars movie to be honest.
Let me guess, the “No Luke I am your father,”thing will be in this vid.
Let me guess, you watched this video and then wrote that.
trying to flex your knowledge and you still say it wrong lmao. "No, I am your father"
Pheniox - ohhh surrreee

Timeless Grass 🤣🤣🤣
Mandela Effect is strong with this one.
AdmiralBonetoPick AdmiralBonetoPick I clearly remember and will always argue that Lord Vader says to Luke Skywalker..... "Luke... I am your father" not "I am your father " even Mr. Jones who voiced (not played just voiced) Lord Vader admitted in a interview the the line he read on the script (which by the way Vader being Luke's father or revealing that he was Luke's father to Luke himself during that battle was kept secret till the final shoot) said Luke... I am your father. I have a Vhs tape from the first time it was released to the public and it says Luke....I Am. Your father
As I know, the secret was known only by 3 man. Lucas, the director and Mark Hamill (they said it to him during the shooting). Even the actor who played Vader don't know, he said during the shooting "No, Obi-wan killed him". As Vader's line were made later, so James Earl Jones became the 4th (and the sound editor the 5th probalby) to know, what is really said. They did it, as only some person can spoil it only, so if someone do it, they can make a huge fine for him, as the biggest suprise is need to be suprise...
The silver leg of C3PO is also a Mandela Effect. Many people remember it never existing and him always being fully gold
nfomz patsfan no you don't, and even if you did it wouldn't prove mandela effect because it should have magically changed. Why would you not post it on youtube? My guess because you're full of shit - so magically changed it is.
I remember him saying "No, I am your father", because also in context it makes sense. The reason people remember "Luke, I am your father" is because that's how people quote it. If they didn't start with "Luke", others might not know they're quoting from the movie.
So, it turns out that Greedo never actually shot first.
A buddy of mine owns one of the "Revenge of the Jedi" movie posters, in mint condition. Worth a ton I presume.
So do i and mine ain't no copy but coz there's so many copies the money worth has gone down
My cousin is a relatively normal guy with too much money, except when it comes to Star Wars. He has a crew jacked with Revenge of the Jedi patch on it and at least half a dozen prop guns used in the OT. (He hates the Disney movies, though, so he is smart lol)
REVENGE of the Jedi? Revenge? Jedi?
Im a dumbass but the original title for episode 6
lol that ur username is class. Not completely original but yano hard to phrase
Chronologically, Coruscant does first appear in the first movie, Episode 1....
I'll see myself out. I have a meeting of Pedantics Anonymous to attend.
BTW, I'm sure the whole Kessel Run thing will be cleared up in the Han Solo movie. Production of that seems to be going so well...😎
mikes5637 you realize Harrison ford.. you know what? Never mind
The Han Solo movie will die where it stands. (it at better)
What people say is true from a certain point of view.
Chronologically, the first movie is the 4th movie, because typically we talk about real world time span versus movie universe time span when discussing the first appearance of something in a series dating back to 1977.
I'm so annoyed with Disney's handling of Star Wars.
While so many people began being grumpy with Disney with episode 8, their first heinous crime against Star Wars, was the utter destruction of everything the heroes fought for in episodes 4-6
The New Republic, which was destroyed in episode 7, in the same exact scene it was introduced! Talk about getting short changed.
I would be okay with the New Republic being destroyed, if it happened in the middle of the trilogy or at the end, after being shown and explored for a while. That way at least we'd get an idea of what was lost.
You won't know how truly annoying Disney's handling of the franchise can be until you spend a weekend at Walt Disney World! ;-)
Well, I was sold after the first couple of seconds of the first scene.
It felt and looked so real. Like the Originals as opposed to like the Prequels.
Also, don't forget that "utter destruction of everything the heroes fought for in episodes 4-6" is YOUR interpretation. if you choose to see it that way, that's fine. but you don't have to.
honestly i think that's not a very good interpretation. Yes, those worlds are destroyed, which is horrible; but what the heroes fought for in episodes 4-6 entails so much more than that...
They destroyed a few planets where the new republic leadership were located. But that’s not the whole galaxy and they were fighting for the whole galaxy
You're "big picture" guy and we like that, Dave! =D
THANK YOU FOR BEING THE FIRST PERSON TO KNOW ABOUT THAT SEGMENT OF THE HAN SOLO BOOKS THAT ADDRESSES THE 12 PARSECS LINE THANK YOU SO MUCH I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE
Woah, I'm pretty sure that the "black hole" explanation for the 12 per sec stupidity was a joke.....I'm sure that a couple of real intelligent Scientists/Star Wars fans/Geeks have found ways for it to make sens, but is it really the official explanation now!? 'Cause I loved the "Han is overselling" explanation much better.....fits better with the character.
Well, the science people were right. Solo movie confirms it lol
exactly what I came to say. they worked that right out! lol
not really. it seems a bit silly that a space pilot would not know hat a parsec is, or even that he would think someone looking to book passage on a space freighter would not
Aparently, no one told the old EU writers either.
Ki Adi Mundi had kids
Yes, but his species had very few males. He had to have kids.
It was so they could have extra firepower to help with the droid attack on the Wookies. (I'm sorry, I had to)
Welp! I have seen my random fact of the day!
gametime x3 and several wives. Because of how his species ages he was allowed as an acceptation
Justazag Z actually the exception was made due to his species poor birth rate and the fact that he was a Jedi Master by the time he came to the council for permission. Given his status and the situation of his species, they allowed it. Stark contrast from the emotional, immature, and low ranked Anakin.
Just watch Solo, it explains the parsecs thing really well
I'm guessing 'no Luke, I am your father' is no.1?
Chrisy MFC that's still not even the correct line
No, I am your father
Night Crawler 9:52 so nice one (ik it's not the line, but the vid is about what people think which are wrong)
Chrisy MFC I know but no luke, I am your father wasn't what people usually think it is
Chrisy MFC I also say that it's "No, Luke, I am your father." and not "Luke, I am your father or "No, I am your father.".
“WEESA FREE!” Listen closely on Naboo scene during celibration
That whole “Luke...I am your father” thing has driven me nuts for years! When I would correct people by saying “No...he never says Luke’s name in that scene”, people would think I was nuts!
Yes, and Kirk never once said "Beam me up, Scotty." There were a lot of close calls, but those exact words were never in any of the original series episodes. Also Bogart never said "Play it again, Sam."
He said "play that song, Sam" in Maltese Falcon
The actual original line is “no Luke, I am your father” not sure how long they kept that. You can look up the original line footage on this site
no it was not.
THANK YOU FOR THE PARSEC PART!! I cannot even begin to describe how many times I have had to correct people on that. In the Han Solo novel trilogy, it clearly states that he shortened the distance traveled because the ship was able to overpower the gravitational forces.
It’s a bit confusing about the “I am your father” scene as some say “No, I am your father” but others say” No Luke, I am your father”
I always said it was "No, I am your father."
"Luke, I am your father" is right up there along with "Play it again, Sam" from Casablanca.
Number 9: that’s depending on how you look at it, chronologically or real release date so what many people say is true, from a certain point of view.
Just me From a Certain Point of View? *Then the perverted old man breaks into song.
lmao
Storm troopers have bad aim because the people they are shooting at are protected by the force DAAAAA
and those helmets make it hard to see straight
Yes, Luke and Leia have superhuman reaction times.
don't forget the scene on tatooine when ben Kenobi says "these blast points, too accurate for sand people. only imperial storm troopers are so precise" coupled with the fact that leia says that it was too easy, that they let them go (due to a tracker on their ship). They are able to kill the rebel soldiers in the beginning of a new hope the soldiers on hoth, the soldiers on endor, the rag tag rebel team on scariff.
Indeed!! Luke and his gang never got shot due to the force, however the rest of the rebels did get shot and more rebs died than clone and non clone stormtroopers.
if you want to go with Stormtroopes having terrible aim, you can interpret Ben's comment as sarcasm.
I love that you can hear his disappointment when he’s talking about the phantom menace.
Always knew about 3PO's silver leg.
I never noticed it.
They explain the 12 parsecs fallacy in the DVD commentary. How exactly can the Millennium Falcon be the fastest ship in the galaxy when EVERY SHIP is equipped with lightspeed capabilities? Simple; the Falcon's computer has a far superior plotting system. The shortest distance between two objects is a straight line, and the Falcon knows how to calculate that shortest distance faster than other ships.
The Berenstein Bears spread "Luke, I am your father" ever since the beginning....
Bobsheaux You mean Berenstain!?
Bobsheaux berenstain yet another example of the mandela effect
Actually, having the ability to go to hyperspace doesn't help when you are dealing with the gravity of a black hole. When a ship goes to hyperspace it enters a parallel dimension where objects in real space become "shadow"s. Crashing into a shadow will obviously cause death, so all ships with hyperspace capabilities have automatic sensors that will detect any shadows and in an emergency drop the ship back into real space. The shadow is caused by gravity so anything with a large gravity well will show up as a shadow in hyperspace. Like a black hole for instance, or the artificial gravity generated by the imperial interdictor cruiser.
Bobsheaux not every ship has a hyperdrive
Wow, kerbe3 ... did you think of all that while living in your parents basement? You must be a wizard with the ladies ...
I was hoping you would correct this but instead you just propagated the falsehood: Anakin didn't build C3P0, he REbuilt him. When Anakin found 3P0 he was discarded in a junkyard. Anakin recognized 3P0's value, took him home, and fixed him up. How do you expect someone living in a sand hill to PROGRAM a robot without a computer?
Even James Earl Jones misquoted the infamous line in an interview.
well, i thought luke was always the son of yoda...
Mantis Toboggan Dang, i thought Luke was Jar Jar Binkses son. Oh well...
"No, Mesa Yousa father!"
Or: No, your father I am!
Ur messed up
Mantis Toboggan How would Luke be Yoda's son? They are not even the same species.
"No, I am your father..."
HOLY $HIT!!! I got goosebumps when I heard that line again after so long
We saw the Kessel run in "solo:a Star Wars story"
Think this was uploaded before that.
Solo was non-canon bantha shit.
We have never seen the Kessel Run in a George Lucas cannonical movie.
I WON'T consider anything without Lucas as canon.
"Luke, I am your father" is from Tommy Boy (near the beginning when he is talking into the fan).
I'm pretty sure I knew all these. 😄 Well, what-do-ya-know?
The "I am your father" quote is something I never understood how it became so commonly miss-quoted, I always quoted it as "No, I am your father" and even some of my friends who are absolute Star Wars nuts get it wrong.
Easy to understand. “Luke, I am your father” makes more sense stand-alone. “No, I am your father” requires context.
Doesn't "Luke, I am your father" originate with Tommy Boy?
GhostofCicero Yep. Talking into a fan.
nah, surely its much older than that. its only in that because it was well known.
One of the theories is people say it that way to give more context for thoughs who don't know them as well.
Probably also works into the conversation better and easier when beginning with "Luke"
Or maybe SCTV's the McKenzie Brothers in "The Great White North"/"Strange Brew".
Here’s one: the gun that characters are laser guns that shoot lasers
WRONG! The gun are actually called “blasters” and the projectiles that shoot are actually called “blaster bolts” or “plasma”. So the next time some says that weapons in Star Wars aren’t realistic because the laser guns don’t shoot laser beams, tell them it’s actually blasters bolts or plasma
bro everyone knows they’re called blasters
The scene where Vader says “I... am your father...” scene was originally going to be, “Obi-Wan killed your father”.
No, it was supposed to be, “No, Obi-Wan was your father.”
Your both wrong it was always meant to be no I am your father , dave prowse says the line obi wan kenobi killed your father as that was how it was written in the script, so no one would know before filming, Mark Hamill was only told the real line just before he filmed the scene, if you don't believe me watch the documentary empire of dreams which covers the making of the entire original trilogy
I have terrible aim and now I know how my girlfriend feels.😬
Does that mean someone jizzed in your eye too?
x42x. More like her eyes yikes and I said that I have terrible aim not someone else right?....
English.
Martí Crous your right I'll edit this shit.
I relate, my friend.
I love how Anakin thought he was being all secretive, when in reality the jedi council must've known he was trying to hide things.... Arrogant he is, thinks he's smarter than yoda he does.
C-3PO wasn’t gold at all in the Original Trilogy, he was actually yellow
It is also explained in the expanded universe that the literal speed of the spaceship is hardly relevant, because modern hyperdrives can easily cross half the galaxy within less than one standard day (in fact, that's exactly what we see in the original Star Wars movie, as Darth Vader mentions that the death of Obi-Wan and the Battle of Yavin happen within the same day, despite Yavin being pretty far from Alderaan). But that is possible only given a clear easily accessible hyperspace route that allows to travel large distances without bothering to avoid obstacles. Pairs of locations that are physically on the same distance from each other can have drastically different travel times depending on how far they are from major hyperspace routes. Using a ground analogy, it's like a difference between driving on a direct highway and crossing the wilderness in the mountains.
So having a good navigator that has a large database of hyperlanes and can quickly calculate the best route to take is much more important than speed in a literal sense. So Han is boasting that his ship can take a shorter, albeit somewhat more dangerous, route for the Kessel run.
I haven't really looked too closely at this but how well does Solo line up with the Kessel run explanation?
Regarding the use of the word Parsec, we have to consider the nature of Lightspeed [Faster than Light, or (FTL) ] travel in the Star Wars universe. I know there's probably a huge article on a Star Wars wiki that explains it, but I'm just going to spitball here...
Since Lightspeed seems to propel a ship into a state of transportation that shows the stars whizzing by leaving light trails as if someone left the shutter open while moving a camera, this could mean that Lightspeed is a form of Time & Dimension Travel _ (or perhaps calling it _spacetime ) rather than simply transportation through space from point A to point B, like a plane flying from New York to LA. Instead, a ship bends spacetime, between two locations thus shortening distances.
For example, if two star systems are naturally 20 parsecs apart (as the crow flies), then when Lightspeed is engaged, it bends spacetime to actually shorten (or squeeze together) those 20 parsecs so that the ship actually travels the distance 12 parsecs instead of 20. So to put it simply, a ship squeezes spacetime together enabling a ship to traverse long distances as if they were actually shorter.
In the movie, Han Solo says, "She'll make point five past lightspeed." which could mean that the FTL drive multiplies the distance of 20 parsecs times .5, thus making the travel time equal to travelling only 10 parsecs (20 x .5 = 10)
so that's my theory. meh... poe-tay-toe, poe-tah-toe, toe-may-toe, toe-mah-toe
And that measure of distance could easily be recreated in a galactic society.
amasa657
Whoa, calm down there Mensa boy.
Have you ever heard of the goldie locks zone? That *_IS_* something universal, and it could also be an origin of a parsec.
Regardless, Autismo657, it's called science *_FICTION_* not science fact, so chill your crazy ass down.
amasa657 actually a parsec is based on the distance between the Sun and another astronomical body, like another star. A parsec is 3.67 light-years, and until 2015 wasn’t at all tied to astronomical units. Also, in a “galaxy far, far away” may have a different concept of a year, it is not universal. A measure of distance would be far more likely to be similar than a measure of time in a galactic civilization. Their concept of “a year” would be standardized, and therefore would probably not be like what we recognize. Just saying.
amasa657 though that doesn’t prevent them from following the exact same formula we did and making the same conclusions. Granted, the Parsec of that universe would be different, but given that the habitable zone of stars is measurably similar in order to support life and produce liquid water, which are both comparable to our universe. That’s why I said it would be equally likely. And I do apologize, I had been reading up on parsecs and you did point out a bit that I had missed, my bad on that.
_In the end, these are just stories; it's all make-believe, anyway._
holy shit. what a revelation.
if only everyone knew that not everything they see in movies, tv, or the internet is *_real_*
The goverment should produce some PSAs. that'll fix it!
Aaaannnd, que the Mandela effect loonies.
Uncle Ray-Ray damn straight
Queue is spelt with an extra 'u' and an 'e'
BobaFett MTB its actually spelled cue
Le Dave Hahaahah you're right man XD totally misunderstood the context there. Lmao :D
A lot of people also get the concept of the Balance of the Force wrong. They think it means equal amount of good and evil, but it means only good and no evil.
Also, the grey Jedi don't really work in Star Wars as people would like to believe.
I find most so called Star Wars fans not only don't know much about Star Wars but tend not to understand it either.
Why don't you listen to the audio commentary of Episode 4. It's simple and Lucas explains it. It wasn't some screw up in the script.
When you travel in Hyperspace you have to set a course to avoid hitting stars, asteroid feilds, planets, etc. The "12 parcecs " that Han Solo talks about is the ability of his navigation computer to figure out this real quick route. But it is not some special hyperspace by-pass freewill or whatever you are saying. And no mistake in the script. If you have either the DVD / Blu-Ray of A New Hope (not some download) turn on the audio commentary track. You will learn more about Star Wars then from even a book.
The stormtrooper aim continues into the Rebels cartoon. Then again, Rex remarks that he can't see out of the helmets the stormtroopers are wearing. Since the eye holes are so small, that makes sense. I wear a costume that covers my face for cosplay purposes, trust me when I say this but your vision is very impaired by stuff like that and I don't think the targetting stuff in the helmets would help that much either. Also, will people please stop saying the clones and stormtroopers are one and the same. THEY AREN'T. There were a mix of natural born humans and clones in the Empire but by the time of Rebels which is set 5 years before A New Hope, most of the clones were retired (by the way, Rex is actually younger than Ahsoka) or dead and production of clones had been stopped only a few days into the reign of the Empire.
While they are on the Death Star, Luke complains to Han that he can't see anything in the helmets. I'm sure Rex's comments are an homage to that.
Sapphirewingthefurrycritic I have heard that the references to not see out of stormtroopers helmets is because of a security measure that makes so any one who isn't the owner will have a very hard time seeing through it by blocking a large amount of the lenses
You definitely right. Some people even say "Stormtroopers are robots."
???
Might not be canon anymore but the 501st are all clones, as Vader was adamant about retaining his old unit under his command and took several measures to ensure their continued survival and production. But that only applies to Vader.
I think "Luke, I am your father" is so popular, despite fans knowing better, because so many people have NOT seen Star Wars. Or at the very least, saw it "Once, 12 years ago, when I was hanging out with my brother and his friends." or something along those lines. These days especially, I know more people who have either never seen it, or who only saw it so few times that they actually aren't interested in the franchise, than I do people like me who are dedicated enough to have even read the books. Saying "Luke, I am your father" is more recognizable than, "No, I am your father" because it explicitly says one of the main characters names. This tends to trigger more memories of having at least seen that scene or being aware of its existence. Its anecdotal, but I personally have observed more recognition when I say the line wrong, than when I say it right. And I think that has more to do with Luke's name being referenced than any sort of meme culture.
That being said, I think actual fans know the correct line, but willingly say it wrong to increase recognition of the reference.
I was SO disappointed with that line! "I am your father". I was like WTF, that's not the iconic line I've heard literally throughout my entire life! It definetely deserves #1
the way it's actually delivered in the movie is better than the misquote.
Instead of saying Luke he says No it's devastating lol
