Dasha: "Is he really his father? That's messed up."
Every Star Wars fan: *laughs, knowing what is coming*
You should see kids watching the “I am your father” scene for the first time - their reactions are priceless.
You mean where Luke and Leia move to the planet Sweetholme in the A14b4m4 solar system? I hear the sky is so blue there.
@Michael Shaughnessy which is why someone came up with the "You might be a red-neck Jedi" jokes, from Jeff Foxworthy's "You might be a red-neck" jokes, and of course aimed at Luke.
In the cave scene, Luke basically sees what is obsessing him. When Luke asked Yoda what he will find in the cave, Yoda answers "Only what you bring with you". By giving in to his anger and hatred and "killing" Vader, Luke submitted to the pull of the Dark Side. Him seeing himself inside Vader's helmet is basically the Force telling him : "This is what you will become if you continue in this way."
Exactly.
As a nostalgia fan, I understand, but man, I've never heard it said so eloquently. This comment deserves more than just a "like"
@@TheZeroAssassin That's a great way to put it! I think it might of been a little foreshadowing of Vader's identity too!
@@slchance8839 Thanks :)
In the NPR radio adaptation, Luke realizes that his vision in the cave means, as he puts it, "the face of my enemy is my own".
I was waiting for the “No, I am your father” moment. It’s very rare to see someone’s reaction to it that doesn’t know it’s coming. Most that have never seen Star Wars knows about it.
It's good to find someone from Russia or Asia because it's a good chance they don't know the twists.
@@dirtyhawkstv1575 that’s true, but even then, because of memes and such, it’s still rare to find someone that doesn’t know about the twist.
I find it interesting that a lot of reactors know the line, but struggle to put it in any kind of context. So when watching Episode IV, they don't express any puzzlement about Obi-wan telling Luke about Darth Vader murdering his father.
@@matthewclarke4127 ya know, I never thought of that. But that’s so true. But it’s probably because they are taking in so much information at the beginning that they just don’t think about it.
It still works on a modern viewer’s mind. That’s encouraging!
“Baby Yoda” is a different character from the Disney Plus series The Mandalorian. It’s also not his real name. Fans just call him that because he’s the same species.
Yeah it was only during the second season that we found out that his name is 'Grogu'.
The species has not been named and even considered to be a rare in universe. Fans just call them “Yoda’s species.” So calling Grogu “Baby Yoda” isn’t technically wrong.
On another note, I love that fans from the scientific community call the species “Tridactyls” in reference to the three digits on each hand and foot using the same naming convention we used to name dinosaurs.
I saw this movie when it was released in the theaters as a child. That look on your face when he said he was Luke's father was the same look we all had. Stunned silence, then "No! He's lying! Or is he?" Watching this has brought back so many wonderful memories. Thank you so much for sharing!
Even James Earl Jones thought Vader was lying when he saw the dialogue for the first time.
I was in my twenties when The Empire Strikes Back was released, so I had more information than a child would, and I had already heard a rumor that Vader was Luke's father (considering there was no internet back then, the speed with which gossip spread was pretty impressive), so my reaction was more like "Damn, the rumor nerds actually spoiled this!" Conversely, I also remember a pre-release report that said that "The Empire Strikes Back" was just a deliberately corny working title as an homage to the old adventure serials that inspired George Lucas and that the movie would be released under a different title that was being kept secret. There was a ton of misinformation (as well as deliberate disinformation to bury any actually accurate leaks), so even if you heard something, you generally didn't believe it.
@@waterbeauty85 Honestly, movies before this didn't really do "surprise twists" so nobody knew how to deal with something like this. Plus, the only sequel movies before this were The Godfather and a few James Bond films, so even doing a sequel was kinda new territory. Putting the twist in the 2nd movie to flip information you got in the 1st had never been done before.
@@BillyButcher90
They had him record two takes. 1: "Obi-Wan killed your father," and 2: "I am your father." So even he didn't know which one was true. They also put version 1 in all the printed scripts, but then told Mark Hamill which was the real one right before filming the take.
@@elbruces "Honestly, movies before this didn't really do "surprise twists""
You should watch Citizen Kane if you haven't already.
Hello from Norway! The ice planet Hoth was in fact filmed in Finse, a in the mountains here in Norway. It's a small place, no road (for cars, at least) and no airport, but the train passes by.
Fun fact. There was a snowstorm which gave a good opportunity to shoot Mark Hamill struggling through the snow. He was alone out in the snow while the camera crew shot him out of the door from the comfort of the warm hotel.
According to documentaries is was a real struggle to film there. Equipment issues as well as danger for the actors and crew in the extreme cold.
Columbia clothing released Star Wars Jackets/parka that was given to the whole crew of Star Wars for the Norway shoot. They look good but pricey
Every time we get a good snow here in America, I like to think I’m on Planet Hoth. 🥶
I like your reactions to STAR WARS and EMPIRE.
Just how I felt in 1977 and 1980.
Even 40 plus years later they are magical films to be cherished.
I envy you
@@italianpaintbrush9370 Hi mate.
Why the envy?
So true. I saw both when they first came out. Still amazing.
I treasure my original, pre-tampering copies.
That moment when she thought Han was going to die. So genuine 🥺
I've watched a lot of people react to the Star Wars movies, and honestly your ability to follow along what's happening is on point. I'm often tripped out by native English speakers who can't seem to follow the story or figure out what's happening, while you're here apologizing for English not being your first language but still following along perfectly. I've often wondered if younger people just don't have the attention spans anymore that would allow them to get these movies, but here you are proving that wrong and restoring my faith in young people. Also, at the cave on Dagobah, Luke was being tested. He had to confront evil without falling to the dark side, but instead he reacted with fear and aggression. This is why Luke saw himself as Vader, and why Yoda later says that he failed at the cave.
She might find it more helpful to watch the movie with Russian sub-titles but leave the original English audio.
I agree. Too many people dont seem to be paying attention or forget something they just learned, but English isnt even Dasha's first language and she gets the subtleties. In fact, I think she's the first reactor to make the relationship between Luke lifting rocks and Vader crushing throats...and she noted that Luke is lifting more stuff and heavier stuff with each scene. Well played, Dasha!
I also like how her questions about the cave, the father reveal, Han's uncertainty....they are all completely the same ones you'd see back in 1980 when talking it over in the schoolyard or playground.
@@slchance8839 Dude, I saw this in the theater when I was 9 years old and the Luke/Vader thing was emotionally devastating. I kept asking my stepdad if it were really true on the way home from the movie. He's like, "I don't know...but it seems true to me." I'd rank it up there with finding out what death was by reading, "Charlotte's Web," and discovering that Santa Claus wasn't real. On the other hand, watching Han and Leia make out suddenly awakened an interest in girls for me, so I suppose it all evened out in the end.
@@rawkmode6315 thanks for the response: it was like a trip down memory lane with someone i've never met but have known all my life.
Now that you mention it, Charlotte's Web was **my** intro to death, too. The thought of the movie to this day has a cold, chilly, sad spot in my brain.
For me, while shocked about the father comment, I was more disturbed by the dismemberment of his hand. At that time, i"d never seen a hero get maimed like that. Not a wound...he lost his hand...down a pit!
Even with the fake hand, I kept thinking that at night, going to bed, after he brushes his teeth, he probably looks at the fake hand or takes it off or something....for pretty much every night for the rest of his life.
horrifying.
And on top of that... he seemed to be only one of 2 people in the whole galaxy (1980) with a lightsaber...and he lost it!
It's easier to get back your hand than a lightsaber.
Empire to me was loss on top of loss on top of loss.
What an emotional rollercoaster for a child of the 70s in 1980.
The more reactors I see, the more i can kinda relive that early memory.
"oh this girl stop kissing everyone, just pick one" priceless reaction, wish more American women felt the same
@14:30, one of my favorite moments in all of Star Wars. When Yoda drops the kooky alien elf facade. Then Luke is shocked to realize he has already failed the first test.
Also this is a great moment because now we realize that any sentient being no matter how odd looking can be a Jedi. Just like how in real life some of our greatest teachers can be the most unlikely of people.
Eh, Luke could have done worse. Yoda was doing his best to get under Luke's skin, and Luke didn't try to chase him off or anything. He just got a bit impatient.
@@WJS774 True
"Eechuta" is the Star Wars version of "f*** you"
When Yoda warned Luke to remember the cave, he was warning Luke to not give in to his anger, because of the danger of the dark side of the Force.
I thought it meant "eat sh&+"
@@davidsalinas1628 haha, it could mean that as well. Just use your imagination would be my suggestion.
Well it is the second movie released. Fifth chronologically
Yes, it is basically a snow monster. It’s called a wampa
This takes place three years after New Hope, so they’ve had a lot of adventures with each other
Limb cutting is a Star Wars tradition. You’ll be seeing plenty of it.
Yes, the tauntaun died from the cold. The planet can get too cold even for them
Vader’s “lounge” is a meditation chamber. He can breath without his mask when sealed inside it
What do you mean can he fly? Like with the force? By himself? Not really. He could do really high jumps, or slow his descent to the ground, but he would need to train. If he were in space though, with no gravity restriction, yeah, and it would help to have something to push off of or pull toward
If the water can get in their systems it would be bad for droids
Yeah, Vader doesn’t wear that suit just to look cool. He needs it to stay alive after some inhuries. What are those injuries? You’ll find out eventually
Baby Yoda is NOT Yoda as a baby. _The fans_ called him baby Yoda because he didn’t have a name at first and we don’t know the name of Yoda’s species. His official name was The Child. His real name you’ll find out when you watch The Mandalorian
Telekinesis, the ability to physically manipulate things with your mind. Like levitating a ship or choking someone
That was a vision Luke had in the cave and it was indeed him in the mask. It was telling him if he attacked without emotional control he could fall to the dark side.
Echuta has never been given a translation. We know it’s a very rude insult. It’s considered too inappropriate to translate
When the ruling government that destroys a planet for a _demonstration_ (when a prisoner was _complying_ with their demands) shows up, you do what they say
The Vader twist was kept secret from pretty much everyone. The only ones who knew were George Lucas, James Earl Jones (Vader’s voice), and the director. They told Mark Hamill right before they filmmed the scene. For everyone else, the line they thought it was gonna be was “Obi-Wan killed your father.”
They didn’t reattach his hand, it’s a prosthetic, with synthetic skin.
Excellent commentary buddy. I enjoy her videos too. It's so great to see someone be introduced to the greats.
Looks like a pretty comprehensive list of detail explanations, great job! Saved the rest of us a lot of trouble.
You
@@rickardroach9075 Think about it though - it makes total sense to keep it from Prowse. That way, when filming the scene, Prowse wouldn't be saying the secret over and over with loads of people there to hear it and leak it out!
Et Chutaa is Huttese. The closest translation is "The fuck you want?"
Hutts are vicious gangsters and cutthroat deal makers. In making deals and negotiating with Hutts, it is pretty much the opening line. It places the person saying it in a position of power, as it is quite rude and demeaning to the other party. Many trade deals are made in Huttese, as the language is especially suited for deal making, and quite colorful in it's insults and descriptions. It also dodges censors, similar to how on Firefly the cast would curse in chinese for the same reason.
The look on your face, when Vader tells Luke that he is his father, was glorious.
And you asked all the real questions!
Can't wait to see more Star Wars with you. ^_^
Your questions will be answered in episode 6 and the prequels. Don’t forget to watch Rogue One after Episode 3.
I'd agree with that. Phantom Menace was the 4th release, but Rogue One sits nicely as an immediate Prequel to Star Wars and should be watched whilst A New Hope is fresh in your mind.
Vader is an absolute beast in Rogue One
"What does 'E chu ta' mean?"
17:40 You're not slow at all!!!! You're giving waaaaay too little credit to yourself, you made some pretty good and astute observations as a person who's watching Star Wars for the first time compared to many people who go in blind onto the saga, you're perfectly fine!!!
My favorite thing to watch is the different ways people react to
NO, I AM YOUR FATHER!
your reaction was, amazing,
".... what?...."
LOL!! :D
This one is widely considered the best of all the movies. It is amazing to see someone react who doesn't already know the big twist.
That's because it wasn't written by Lucas. It was written by Leigh Brackett & Lawrence Kasdan.
"the ice planet reminds me of Russia" lol so cute
Plus the scene was filmed in Norway so she's not far off
@@jwjustjwgd Yep! Finse, Norway!
I imagine Napoleon would have felt that way too. He probably would have walked out.
Nah hoth isn't THAT bad
Where is the space vodka???
"English is not my first language". Dasha you're doing great. Your English is way better than my Russian.
Have you watched Raiders of the Lost Ark?
1981 film from George Lucas and Steven Speilberg.
This is an amazing film.
Seconded.
You are definitely not slow, Dasha. I'm continually impressed in these reactions by how perceptive you are and how quickly you pick things up.
The Force is Strong with you . .
But you are not a Jedi yet . .
;) :D
Not only did I have the same questions when I watched this but I had to wait three years for the next movie
I never thought about how tough it is for non-native English speakers to understand Yoda! He is just charmingly foreign-sounding for native English speakers. Your reactions are super fun, thanks for sharing them with us.
Yes valid points. Yoda's syntax is a bit jumbled.
Some comments here don’t fully explain Luke’s failure at the cave.
Yoda tells Luke that the cave is a “domain of evil”, but tells him he must go in.
Like can feel the darkness in it. He grabs his gun belt with his lightsaber but Yoda tells him “Your weapons. You will not need them.” Luke looks at Yoda with an expression of ‘you’ve got to be kidding, I’m not going in there unarmed’. Yoda shrugs and Luke enters.
Inside the cave Luke encounters something that appears to him to be Darth Vader. He ignores his lightsaber without a word, battles, and uses his skills he has so far learned to cut down the Vader-thing. But the face inside turns out to be Luke.
It is the practical version of the lesson that Yoda was teaching. Jedi use the force only for knowledge and defence, never attack. He also tells Luke “Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, as it did Obi Wan’s apprentice.” which Luke knows was Darth Vader.
It was Luke deciding to bring weapons into the cave that caused the confrontation. We don’t know what would have happened if he didn’t bring weapons, but we do know what happened when he did.
Seeing those walkers in a theater was terrifying. They looked _huge_ !
The extras playing Rebel soldiers during the Hoth fight were actually Norwegian Army troops. They're used to fighting in snow. :)
You’re definitely watching these in the correct order! Love the reactions!
The reason why Yoda was acting the way he was acting was because he was testing Luke's levels of patience to assess his readiness for Jedi training
Many people consider this movie the best Star Wars film of them all, myself included! Great reaction as always! You’re too sweet 😊
This was the best reaction to this movie I've ever seen! What you thought and felt was pretty much what I thought and felt on opening night in 1980.
Dasha,The fun in all this is watching you react to the Star Wars series,you're right about the imagination behind the story..that's why Star Wars is so popular it touched a chord with a post Vietnam war generation, helping to give something positive to the negative attitude decade of the 1970's..Standing up for each other against incredible odds,fighting for what is right, Courage & Hope is what I see in these films..
When you react to "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy..RUclips has it's suggested movies,please ask your subscribers what films we would like you to watch and react to.
Might I suggest the best American film of the last 27 years "The Shawshank Redemption" use the subtitles and keep a box of tissues on hand for this one.
I will enjoy watching your channel grow..
This is the fuckin' cutest SW reaction of all time. Great job, young lady.
Wow! Congratulations on experiencing the biggest REVEAL in film history without a spoiler!...just like we did in theaters 40 years ago! Nice to witness you going through those emotions!
Her facial expression for when Vader says, " I am your father," is priceless.
C3PO is such a worrier he’s always falling to pieces your reactions are always a delight. Looking forward to the next one
This movie is possibly the best of the entire Star Wars saga without underestimating the othe reactions,nice reaction and you will like more and more greetings from Spain
Vader "You are not a Jedi yet" Dasha "Rome wasn't built in a day!" I loved your reactions and emotions to this movie! Your comment about liking it better than the first movie. I do agree, it was a movie that shook the emotions of many a teenager back in 1982. I was terrified at the power and evil of Darth Vader so much (back then) I had trouble staring at his image on my Star Wars poster on my bedroom door. It was awesome however. Up here in my home town of Kitchener, Ontario. They played a double feature of both Star Wars and The Empire Strikes back for only $4 the year before Return of the Jedi was released. That's were I racked up my re-watching count of those movies back in the day. Thank you so much for this video!
Oh for the days when movie tickets were less than $5
You need to watch this in release order.
She is. She should watch it in chronological order.
She makes a good point. R2-D2 would make a great Jedi. I mean he is already force sensitive
You are not slow. When I saw this movie in the theater as a teenager, I remember the audience also following the same train of thought as you. You are very genuine.
lol @ 27:52
"The force is with you, young Skywalker, but you are not a Jedi yet."
"Rome wasn't built in a day, you know."
lol
"Why do they always cut hands" oh boi
u haven't seen the half of it
Hands, arms, legs, heads, torso, etc... lightsabers slice and dice like a Ginsu knife.
wow, that was a really good honest reaction. thank u Dasha. cant wait for Ep VI
29:12 *1980 intensifies for Dasha*
I've been waiting for you to do this one and i loved seeing your reactions! Thanks for putting these up and letting us relive our original reactions with you!
I've been WAITING for you to watch this ever since you did the first one. This will be great. Glad you're enjoying this.
"Stop kissing everyone!"
That was also Carrie Fisher's problem on the set.
@@rickardroach9075 I wish i was one of those Chinese tourists that got pics of her nude on acid at the beach...
Damn!
"No... I don't think they like promotions here." 🤣🤣🤣 I agree! Getting promoted gives you more responsibility, which means you have more chances to fail with Lord Vader watching, which means there are more chances for Vader to fire you -- which is fatal!
The Empire Strikes Back(1980) was directed by Irvin Kershner. He passed away in 2010. He also directed The Flim Flam Man,
Return of a Man Called Horse, The Eyes of Laura Mars and Never Say Never Again.
As someone who stood in line the week the very first Star Wars movie came out [I watched you reaction to that one too] I have to say that watching you react to these is great. I remember still how I felt sitting in the theatre with my wife and seeing these movies revealed for the first time. In your case, not only is it a first time, but you come from a totally different cultural background [well, maybe not "totally" - my family was from Finland and though I was born in Canada, I had a bit of Finnish culture in my upbringing] I love seeing how you react - it is so fresh and pure.
Thanks, it's almost as if I was back in the theatre when the movie first came out. Great memories.
I enjoy watching you watch these, it makes me feel like when I saw them the first time.
When they were making this movie, only a very small circle knew that Darth Vader was going to say "I am your father." Even most of the cast didn't know. The script that they were given said "Obi-Wan killed your father." James Earl Jones (the voice of Darth Vader) and Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) were among the few that knew.
Yeah, Mark was told the truth as they were about to film it, and was told to keep it a secret from everyone (including Carrie who could never keep secrets).
Harrison Ford & Carrie Fisher were both drunk filming the Lando introduction scene. That's why Leia can't stop smiling.
Vader: "The Force is with you young Skywalker. But you are not a Jedi yet." Dasha, "Rome wasn't built in a day you know." Me: Bwahahahah 🤣🤣🤣.
like a wise man said about the video game adaptation of the Battle of Hoth:
"You could call it Bird vs Camel and no one would argue!"
Dasha, you apparently didn't quite get the symbolism of the vision of Darth Vader in the cave.
But I'm thinking of a director from your own country: Andrei Tarkovsky. In particular the movies Solaris and Stalker. They are full of symbolism, scenes open to interpretation, maybe happening more in the minds of the characters than in reality. Compared to those, this is fairly straightforward.
(Edit) It's clear that Luke "failed" in the cave by bringing his lightsaber when Yoda told him not to. The vision of Vader was a lesson, but by showing Luke's own face in Vader's helmet, he was warned of the danger of following the dark path. It might also be a premonition of what happened to his father.
And probably that Luke has a part of Vader in him (as his offspring)
I would say that strictly speaking Luke _could_ still have passed the test in the cave even going in there armed, but it definitely made it harder for him.
Myself, I grew up watching the Star Wars series 4,5,6. Its neat seeing someone watch these movies for the 1st time.
Seeing the Dagobah Darth Vader fight scene: here is MY interpretation. When Luke attacked and killed Vader, it was an act of aggression. Anger. Feelings which lead to the Dark Side. When the mask was removed, revealing Luke's face, it basically implied, "this is what you will turn into". Kind of like an eye opener.
After watching this I realize how much of the entire Star Wars movie/tv canon hangs off of this movie.
love seeing Dasha fangirl out on Luke lol. omg... "... but I'm slow..." oh Dasha you are so amusing.
Part of what makes Vader's character so effective, in Empire, is that he only kills Imperial officers that are shown to be incompetent.
Officer Piett's character fails multiple times in capturing the Millenium Falcon, but Vader never kills him. Piett's character is separated from the other officers in that it shows him only trying to do what Vader asks him to do, to the best of his ability.
This lets the audience know that Vader is not a maniac murderer, but instead, is simply hyper-focused on achieving goals.
"Hyper focused on achieving goals".
I....i think I love this.
Halloween was still huge when this was made. When it was safe to go to houses and say trick or treat", most kids were Darth Vader, Princess Leiah, Boba Fett, Yoda, etc. I don't think Jabba the Hut" had a costume, but he might have, haha...
One fact with this film, the wampa attack at the start of the film (creature that luke cuts its arm) was done to give luke his facial scar which he got from a car accident prior or during filming. If you havent already watched them but I would suggest the Alien films that started in 1979, 1st film is a horror film and the 2nd is action.
Watch Return of the Jedi next
@@141menace why? It’s literally the next movie that was released
@@jonmercano1138 But then she'd know that luke has a and it won't be as much of a surprise. Whenever my friends start watching these films I always recommended 4, 5, 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8 and 9.
@@willbeonekenobi that’s a fine experiment, but prequels are made to inform you about things after having seen the original material, not most of the original material
@@jonmercano1138 my bad i was thinking if something else
Baby Yoda is a different character. He was called that because he was the same species and we didn't really have a name, beyond The Child. He is only in the Mandalorian.
Great reaction, especially to huge reveal. Can't wait for Return of the Jedi. Keep up the awesome work. 👍
I was very young when I first saw The Empire Strikes Back in theaters way back in 1980. I have watched it several times since. It is my favorite movie from the original trilogy.
Your reaction to „i am your father“ was the best hahahahahahahha
29:10 ...and THIS, boys and girls, is why we watch movies (and reaction vids).
If you rewatch the beginning of the first movie there's a part with Luke's aunt and uncle who he lives with if you'll remember where they say the following:
Aunt: "He has too much of his father in him."
Uncle: "That's what I'm afraid of."
In the cave with the false Vader where it has Luke's face that's another, even bigger clue, that Vader is Luke's father and the fact that Luke's immediate instincts were to go for the kill was showing if he gives in to those impulses like his father did he will end up just like him. Like father, like son. It's not just Vader's powers he inherited but also his passion and his will to win which could be manipulated to turn him to the dark side.
“Do they always chop hands?”
Yes. Famously so.
Although never completely explained, the scene in the cave seems to be a Jedi test. The padwan or apprentice is sent to face an illusion created by what the dark side brings on him. That's why Yoda answers to the question what is in there, "only what you bring with you". What happens in there does not have a real consequence to the plot, only to Luke's character, how he seems himself, how prepared or unprepared he is, how much he sees of Darth Vader in him, or something like it.
One of, if not my favorite movie of all time. I have to echo the sentiment that it is amazing to watch someone see this original trilogy with fresh eyes. Without knowing what is coming. Reminds me of being back in the theatre when I was a kid. This is an absolute pleasure. Indiana Jones would be another of my favorites.
The moment I'm sure everyone's been anticipating the most - 29:10. :)
He didn’t kill his “bad side” in the cave. It was a test, he gave into his aggression and failed.
Hoth outside scenes were filmed in Norway for most part, and some of the Rebel soldiers fighting in the trenches are in fact from the Norwegian army who helped with the logistics!
Kenobi isn't really alive anymore you know... he just transfered his conciousness into the Force itself.
That swamp is 100% artificial made in a studio, a bloody good work.
Episode 3 is where you see what happened to Darth Vader to have him wear this suit and mask...
Jedi traditionnally start trainiong younglings before they experience fear too much. They take the children from their families around 3 years old.
Baby Yoda is just a nickname people gave the small character in Mandalorian series because his real name wasn't mentioned at the time. But it's not Yoda, Mando series take place after Return of the Jedi...
The Cave scene is a vision Luke had about his eagerness to find trouble and potential consequences. In short he failed to face his fears of being drawn to the Dark Side, he has still much to learn.
You would go for Luke, hm? Judging you didn't even look at the camera saying that, I can assume you are lying about that.
The story of Lando's ship going to Han is told in Solo, A SW story.
We don't know what "Itchuta" leans but for 3PO reacting like this, it must be a terrible slur.
Suggestions: Back to the Future trilogy, Lord of the Rings/Hibbit trilogies, Indiana Jones trilogies for a start...
“Your insight serves you well”, young Padawan! You’re following very well and I like your emotion filled reactions!! I was confused by the cave scene too the first time I watched😉
Looking forward to ROTJ, and even more so for the prequels!
We shall watch her career with great interest
All your questions will be answered in the next movie
I think Empire transcends the entire franchise and is legitimately a top ten film.
Yoda's speach pattern was designed to be alien or child-like in order to keep the audience interested in a bunch of long scenes without a lot of action. The sentence structure makes it so you have to pay closer attention to understand what he was saying. If you ask me, it was a brilliant touch. Irvin Kershner (the director) and Frank Oz (the voice and master puppeteer of Yoda) absolutely nailed it.
"Baby Yoda" is a different creature of the same species as Yoda from The Mandalorian series. The perfect thing for you to watch after Episode VI
To get the most out of the Mandalorian, Dasha should probably watch the Clone Wars series and Rebels before watching the Mandalorian.
15:07 that younger looking Yoda is from the show "The Mandalorian," it's a show that takes place in the Star Wars universe
Empire is the absolute greatest Star Wars film of all time. I'm so glad that you got the chance to see it.
Certainly can't go wrong with the Back To The Future movies.
"Did he attack his bad side?" - perfect, you got it exactly. Well done.
An unspoiled reaction to star wars is so rare this is priceless. So looking forward to the rest.
"No Luke. I am your father."
Dasha: ô_ô
Best reaction to this movie I've seen!! Wow! Thanks so much for the great reaction.
You finished episode #5 but you will need to wait till #6 to find our why Darth Vader's head us so damaged under his helmet. You will love #6 I think. Спасибо большой!! Рокаааа!! Keep smiling 🤘 🙂
Haven't watched this whole reaction yet, but have to comment: it's refreshing to see someone thirst over Luke, instead of Han...or Chewie.
Everything in this movie is REAL. There were no computers yet to make graphics. Lasers are hand drawn on the film cells. Explosions were filmed for real and overlaid on the scenes
I’m 40 and still have a crush on Luke. It started when I was 7 years old in 1987. BTW, Mark Hamill did all his own stunts.😍

"I love you!"
"I know. 😏"
A lot of people don't know this, but "Han" is Corellian for "Chad." 😅
Baby Yoda is just called Baby Yoda because he is smol.
The lesson of the cave was that he brought fear and anger in with him. His fear leading him to bring his saber, and his anger leading to him drawing and attacking first. The cave showed what he could become if he let those emotions become master of him.
R2D2 is the real hero of the Star Wars universe.
29:30 This is why you watch them in release order. The reveal would have been spoiled otherwise.
Without spoiling Episode 6, the confusing scene in the cave is a warning to Luke that he is just as vulnerable to influence and power of the dark side as Darth Vader. Episode 5 initiates a "cyclical, traumatic object lesson", then Episode 6 contains a call-back scene where this lesson is applied. Episode 2 then contains another call-back scene which connects to the Episode 5 & 6 scenes bringing Yoda's lesson full circle.
The winter scene was filmed in Norway. The part where Luke is walking through a snowstorm was actually filmed right in front of the hotel they were staying at. He was walking towards the entrance where the camera crew was filming.
Now imagine having to wait three years to find out if Vader was REALLY Luke's father. :-D My friends and I discussed/argued about this a lot until we got the answer in 1983. :-D
Yoda: Do or do not, there is no try
Dasha: That’s such a good thought
