Without a doubt one of the best Special Edition changes. No offense to Clive Revill or the late Marjorie Eaton, but Ian McDiarmid is just so much better.
Plus, the original Emperor wouldn’t fit continuity wise. In the first three movies, Emperor Palpatine has a consistent look. But then in Episode 5, he looks completely different, but is back to normal in Episode 6, which canonically takes place one year later? Reshooting the scene with Ian McDiarmid really is the better option in this case.
@@guspeixoto7740 yeah I don't think anyone could really argue too much and try to justify why they feel it shouldn't have been changed. Also the same way they decided to change boba fetts voice to temura morrison from wingreen, even though I actually preferred the original voice of boba fett, it made sence for continuity if he spoke like the rest of the clones
What's going on through the heads of the people who say the original is superior? It was one of the worst effects in the movie, they superimposed a monkey's eyes over a human face.
Well since you're asking, the dialog was better in the original, since they decided to fuck it up in the special edition and make it so Vader doesn't even know Luke is his son to keep continuity with the shitty prequels

@@againstfasces5222 Politics in the prequels isn't the reason they're not as good. To be clear, I love both the OT and prequels. But the OT are just better movies.

The only pet peeve I have with the updated version is after the emperor says that Luke is the offspring of Anakin Skywalker Darth Vader then asks how is that possible when Vader knew it by mentioning the name Skywalker earlier in the movie.
Furthermore, it's established within the opening crawl for TESB, that Vader is obsessed with finding Luke ("The evil lord Darth Vader, obsessed with finding young Skywalker, has dispatched thousands of remote probes into the far reaches of space…."), which implies that he had already learned that Luke is his Son between the events of A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back.
@@romulusnr The opening crawl suggests otherwise. If he's not aware of who Luke is, then why is Vader obsessed with finding him? Also, at what point does Vader learn of Luke's identity, given that he reveals his parentage later on in the movie?
@@romulusnr The opening crawl literally states that Vader is obsessed with finding Luke Skywalker. Again; if that's not because Vader is aware that Luke is his Son, then when do you propose that Vader learned that Luke was his offspring?
I think the updated version would have been better if they changed the camera angle (scene set up or something relevant to that, English isn't my mother tongue) and prosthetics for Palpatine. It kinda degrades the intimidating factor that he brings to the audience.
I don't really mind the original, but the current version is much better. Since it is perfectly tied in with the events of ESB's direct followup: ROTJ.
Lucas THOUGHT it was keeping continuity with the prequels. But it's stupid. There is no reason why Vader wouldn't have worked it out. Now, he says 'how is that possible?' highlighting the fact that the emperor said Vader killed Padme. It sort of makes out he hadn't heard the rumours, the legend of Luke blowing up the death star , or got something through imperial intelligence, and putting two and two together. And now it's like he's stupid, totally trusting the emperor. And ok, a day or so later he's enticing Luke to overthrow the emperor, so perhaps his loyalty is now in question due to the emperor's lies twenty three years ago. But the problem is, what about Return of the Jedi, where he didn't know about a sister? So the emperor has no doubt that the x wing pilot was Luke without them knowing a name but Leia was right under their noses and a pain in the neck the last several years and instrumental in the rebellion and escape from, and destruction of, the death star and the emperor can't see that? Or did Lucas know in 2005 that Disney would make Leia force deficient and the emperor can see Disney ? It's stupid and it makes vader look stupid, rather than the clever dialogue of the first version which makes them look clever regardless of what the prequels are, or if they aren't existing It's completely unnecessary
Also can someone please explain why he says 'he's just a boy. Obi Wan can no longer help him.' This is the same as the old version. Before he says this, in the McDiarmid version, I'm to think neither of them knew that someone called Skywalker blew up the death star, by name. But when he says this, we are now to think that Vader knew, but dismissed it as it being impossible to be his son. Now, all of a sudden, he knew Obi Wan was poised to help his son. Her didn't even know that this Skywalker was on the death star! He and Tarkins' reports on the death star knew about Obi Wan turning up with others, and rescuing Leia, her returning plans all the way to the rebel base, and he glimpsed a pilot of the falcon and a couple of other misfits. It makes no sense. This made total sense originally and NONE of it needed changing.

Why is the 1997 Special edition impossible to find? Wasnt that the first time the 1980 Emperor was replaced with Ian Mcdiarmid?
No it was the 2004 Special Edition DVD.
