      Sometimes people say words like "always" but not meaning it in its most literal terms. As time went on I'm sure she began to feel some connection to him but couldn't quite wrap her mind around it. When he told her the truth, it all "clicked". It was more an emotional response. I'm sure they had a cluck later when they talked about how they had kissed a year earlier!

    This was my favorite Star Wars movie. I know a lot of people say Empire Strikes Back is best, but there's just something about that last fight between Vader and Luke in this one that gives me chills. When Vader says "Your sister... yessss you have a twin sister!" and the perfect performance by Mark Hamill, demonstrating a balance between hatred and forgiveness (not a typical jedi). In the end Luke failed, and it was Anakin (Vader) that was the true savior.. but only because of Luke's love for his father/family. Plus the speed bikes are awesome. And the epic space battle. Jabba was cool too.

    One of my favorite, more subtle moments out of everything in that throne room sequence (which there’s a great many cuz it’s some of the best Star Wars EVER) is after Luke cuts off Vader/Anakin’s hand. The way he turns back to look at the hand, noticing that Vader too had a robotic hand, then looking back at his own. He realizes in that moment what path he was starting to go down... he is BECOMING Vader, something that was even implied back in Empire in that one dream like sequence on Dagobah. That’s what makes him tossing aside his lightsaber and the dialogue to follow so powerful to me. Brilliantly written, and acted across the board

    • @Corn_Pone_Flicks
      @Corn_Pone_Flicks 3 года назад +8

      I slightly misunderstood that scene when I first saw it as a kid, as I'd forgotten that Luke had put that black glove over his damaged hand towards the start of the film. I took the Emperor's statement of "strike him down and take your father's place" literally, and thought that Vader's hand had actually replaced his own, and that if he killed Vader outright, he'd fully become Vader. Later I realized it was just a metaphor, but it still kind of worked...I got the point of it anyway.

    • @slchance8839

      well said.
      I also just now realized that when yoda warned "dont underestimate the powers of the Emperor..."
      Luke failed to do so....and maybe that's why he threw away his lightsaber.
      From Luke's point of view, now that Vader lost his hand and his saber, the Emperor is too weak for me to even NEED a lightsaber. If he hadnt underestimated him, Luke might have been able to defend himself from the lightning with his own saber.

  • @rovert651

    For those of you fighting over why it’s Hayden as the force ghost I have a little fan answer, it’s because yes even though he wasn’t a full fledged Jedi master when he looked like that it makes sense when his spirit passes on that’s the form he naturally takes because in his mind when he looked like that he was good to him that’s when he was a Jedi not when he defeated the emperor, to him the older man that killed hundreds of thousands of innocents wasn’t Anakin Skywalker that was Vader even without the mask that was Vader but the moody boy with shaggy hair that cared about each and every person he fought beside, that was Anakin and that’s why he looked like his younger self. But hey that’s just one nerds theory.

The only one I really can't bring myself to accept is Vader's NOOOOOO before throwing the Emperor into the shaft, Vader's silent struggle turned to determination made that scene for me and I can't help but cringe every time it comes up in rewatches.

    There is an urban legend, seemingly verified by Peter Mayhew (who played Chewbacca), that Mayhew was warned not to wander off the set while they were filming the Endor sequence, in case hunters mistook him for a bear or even Bigfoot. By the way, you were watching the version that was re-edited after the prequel trilogy was made. Originally, the Anakin force ghost was played by Sebastian Shaw, who was the actor unmasked by Luke. This version edited in Hayden Christiansen, who played the adult Anakin in the prequel trilogy. Personally, i wish they had left it alone, but you can see the original version on the old VHS tapes.

V, his action figure quickly became the most sought-after of all the new side-characters -- except maybe Yoda, if you count him as one.

    As a kid in Southern Africa that had no clue or knowledge of this special series, my sister rented the three movies when I was sick from school. I fell completely and utterly in love ♥️.
    My favourite was always Return of The Jedi. I know Empire Strikes Back is critically acclaimed but the conclusion was always special to me.
    I have teared up EVERY time they have their epic showdown, that music is ultra haunting and special. I tear up every time when Anakin dies and I tear up every time the force ghosts appear at the very end (again with great music though the original song was also good in the original trilogy)
    The clone wars series made me appreciate and love Anakin a lot.

    Excellent reaction, glad to see you enjoying the saga so far. I hope you enjoy the prequels just as much. I know they can sometimes have pacing issues and cringey dialogue, but they do so much to expand the universe and story and watching anakins rise all while knowing the outcome is truly beautiful and tragic. Plus the duels are unmatched. And then, if you get into the animated stuff, clone wars, rebels etc, which I highly recommend, the prequel era becomes that much richer.
    Anyway, good stuff, looking forward to more

    I've deliberately been avoiding anything to do with Return of the Jedi - simply because my heart cannot handle it anymore.
    I grew up with these films and have watched them a million times, but it wasn't until watching the TV show Clone wars that everything hits different now.
    I'm so glad that you felt saddness at the loss of Vader - you're a good a judge of character.
    For me, watching Luke burn Vader's body alone on Endor is so heartbreaking, it really hits home just how alone Luke really is and how isolating his relationship with Vader makes him.

    • @stt5v2002

      This scene suffers greatly from expanded lore and unnecessary edits. Before the prequels it was implied that Jedi became force ghost ms after death. The prequels indicate that Qui-Gon discovered this power and that it is a learned skill. Thus it makes no sense that Anakin can do it, and even less sense that Anakin appears “young.” Oh well, best just to overlook it I think.

    Vader's redemption is a credit to this film series. It's not like most arcs of this type where we get to know the villain, he's humanized and we spend a good bit of time wanting him to turn good because we know they can be good (look at ATLA to see what I'm talking about). Vader is evil throughout the whole way through, only Luke believes he's good (not from stories about him but from faith in what he feels to be true), and it's only through Luke's action and dialogue that Vader is humanized in a few short lines before his turn. In any other movie this would be lazy writing, but the fact that this very black and white story about good and evil ends with us feeling sad at Vader's funeral is amazing

    So the ghost Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker at the end was not in the original release. They actually used the actor you saw when Luke removed the mask, Sebastian Shaw (David Prowse was the actor normally in the costume with fencer, Bob Anderson stepping in for some of the saber duels - The voice in the originals was always James Earl Jones, and every voice actor after him having to imitate his classic Darth Vader voice). After the prequels came out, the original was updated to remove Sebastian Shaw and replace him with Hayden Christensen, who played adult Anakin in the prequels.

    If you remember, at the end of Episode V Luke is able to reach out through the Force when he's hanging from the bottom of Cloud City after Vader cut off his hand and contact Leia and she made them go back and pick him up. If Leia wasn't strong with the Force she wouldn't have been able to pick up on his message. At this point Leia is like Luke at the start of the first movie and doesn't know how to consciously use the Force and when she uses it on instinct it just seems to her and everybody else like she's really good at some stuff and/or really lucky, just like Luke was already a great pilot and a good shot even before Obi-Wan taught him the basic Jedi techniques.

    - About Vader's death, he died because his suit was keeping him alive, and was actually weak to electricity. A normal person would have survived to that, but as Obi-Wan said, he was more machine than human.
    - This third ghost was the Anakin who died to Vader. It would have been strange to me to see an old version, when we know everything he did as Vader... Not only in the movies but also in the books. Vader did horrible things. That's why it makes sense to me that his Force Ghost appearance is his former Jedi self.
