#StarWars - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
I don't know why, but even after 46 years, this scene gives me chills. I'm certain I've seen it hundreds, if not thousands of times, yet it is always so good.
it is
Absolutely.
This movie never gets old
well, I was 7 years old in 1977 and now I can say : this is a real movie and every time i watch it makes me beautiful memories and emotions, nothing about the latest series of star wars! They're just cartoons. bye from Italy
@@pittino70 In 1977 when Star Wars came out, I had just graduated from high school - I went to see it in summer at the cineplex in the east side of Sacramento - it was hot out side but cool in the theater . That fall I bought the first Star Wars spinoff book Splinter in the Minds Eye and an R2D2 kit model.
I feel the same watching it now as I did when a child. Perfect movie
The scene of the Millennium Falcon swooping in will always be iconic.
or "Beware of the the Han in the sun!"
Palpatine: What the hell is an Aluminum Falcon?!
I still remember after 40 years being shocked when Han showed up... I was 7 when I saw it in the movie theater as a double header with Empire😮
I saw this about maybe a week after opening, and I remember the crowd cheering when Han arrived.
The sound of those engines, man.
Epic ending. When Luke hears Obi Wan in his head, you get chills down your spine.
Obi Wan
when your gut takes over and you ignore tech.....so awesome.
Es verdad… hermoso y épico momento… en un segundo mi fui de vuelta a mi niñez 🙌🏻🥹
remember, the force will be with you, always.
To this day!!
The short scene where Tarkin is informed that they know what the rebels are trying to do and he brushes the risk away for the chance to finish the war once and for all is a brilliant addition by Lucas to up the stakes for all involved.
That must have came after the first torpedo... I'm going to watch it again.
Il never forget that scene and the way Peter Cushing delivered that line. Perfect
@@jaykay7932Great way of contrasting Tarkin and Leia. Leia stays to show strength and solidarity whereas Tarkin only cares about glory. Never even considered that war was a game of life and death.
and if it hadn't been for one man stalling at his post the Alliance might not have survived the battle of Yaven.
But it's not about "winning the war," the Death Star can fire whether a desk general's fancy uniform is onboard or not. He stays because he's an arrogant prick and he assumes he's invincible.
Han Solo’s best moment is so often forgotten. And it’s so well-done too, because by the time you get to the trench run you figure Han is long gone with his money.
My mom was carrying me when her and my dad saw it in Alhambra, CA. back in the day. She said the theater went insane when the Falcon swooped in.
But that's his character. He's like a thief with a heart of gold.
@@herrmajor2310 : In Legends, there was a book that described Han and Chewbacca flying away from Yavin in the Falcon, almost ready to go to hyperspace. Chewie was clearly feeling very miserable, and moaning softly, and Han was struggling between his powerful instinct for self preservation, and guilt for leaving Luke and Leia behind to die in a hopeless (as Han saw it) battle. Eventually Han gives in, snarls "Alright, kark it - let's go fight!" and swings the Falcon around...
Years later, married to Leia and sleeping beside her in their bed, Han often wakes up in a cold sweat after reliving that flight in a dream, and remembering just how very close he had come to throwing the hyperspace lever and leaving Leia and Luke behind forever.
There are no hero rebellion and smuggler without you Captain Solo.🫂🥹
@@herrmajor2310 A lot of people we think of as “scoundrels” have a good heart, but the world they’ve lived in is all they know until a critical point comes. And vice-versa, a lot of bad people end up in high positions and they’re genuinely evil people.
Han Solo is such a unique character. You wouldn’t give him a loan of even $100 because you know you won’t get it back, but if he thinks you’re his friend he’d sacrifice his life for you.
Even though Han wasn’t a “bad guy” his return to save Luke is one of the best “face turns” in movie history.
Deus Ex Machina
come right out of the sun
It paid for the whole freaking show.
VADER will even the score with HAN in the sequel.
YAHOO!
Han wasn't lying when he said the shot was one in a million. So many stars had to align for this miracle to actually happen: suicide squad of unlikely heroes extracting the plans from heavily guarded secret facility, receivers surviving Vader, R2D2 making his way from Tatooine to Yavin IV safe, general Dodonna catching an insight in his sleep that helped him to decipher the data hours before the battle... and, finally, Han deciding to break his character. This movie is a requiem for a hope!
When Han break his character? He shooted first. 😂😂😂
@@Asmo_Lay, Han Solo was known to be arrogant and selfish, an individualistic person. His return to help Luke (and, by extension, the Rebel cause) was the beginning of his path toward realizing that he was indeed a good person, and the start of his love story with Leia. Yes, Han shot first, but it was justifiable.
Or will of the force restoring balance to the universe.
@@JWBabaYaga In a comic where Luke chose to use the targeting computer instead of the force, the Death Star wasn't destroyed
@@Richtofen-gy9cj You're talking about the Infinities Comic series, right? Yeah I love those alternate reality editions. I think Infinities is also what introduced everyone to the concept of Darth Maul surviving (complete with the robot legs) which unltimately ended up being made canon.
Man, Vader had one LONG flight back home.
Palpatine: "Well where are you?! ...Wait a second, you've been flying around for two weeks trying to get a signal? Ugh, you must smell like feet wrapped in leathery burnt bacon."
Who's they!🤣
Lmao
The tie advanced had a hyperdrive so he was alright 😂
@@tgtterrorizor3407 "I understood that reference" 🤣
"Remember, the force will be with you...always" ✨
😌
@@cgore4its just a quote bruhh😑
Thats one of the most "hard as fuck" movie quotes of all time....
@brandtmanning1084 hahahahaha!!!! 🍻
Obi wan to luke Skywalker after the battle.
One of the Most iconic scenes in movie History. It still shivers.
My dad, who never much of a fan, he loved "what?" and used to giggle about it.
Wedge was a coward after he got hit by Darth Vader.
"What do you mean they blew up the Death Star?!?! ...WHO'S THEY??? ...What the hell is an Aluminum Falcon?!?"
"And why did we use the lumbering slow Death Star when we had an entire fleet with hyperdrive capability? Why didn't we just use that to destroy the rebel base again?"
I know the video you were referring to. To me, this is the funniest robot chicken video ever made. I mean seriously. Can you imagine the emperor being like that? Totally hilarious.
"And where are you? You've been flying around for 2 weeks trying to get a signal?! My God, you must smell like feet wrapped in leathery, burnt bacon!!"
“Oh I’m sorry. I thought my Sith Lord could protect a small thermal exhaust port that’s only two meters wide. The thing wasn’t even paid off yet. Do you have any idea what this is gonna do to my credit?”
Movies can be timeless... but their release in cinema is a point in time. The culture, the vibe, the times.... it all matters. And I’m here to say that if you were a kid in 1977 when this came out and saw it at the theater in America, you had one of the most unique, amazing, engrossing and surreal experiences of ANY human beings ever born. It is literally impossible to impart to others who saw it 30 years later on DVD what that was like to have been there. What a remarkable privilege of time and place we had to have been in those seats when it first dropped.
Well said. When this movie came out, it was absolutely a unique film
I feel the same about the Avengers Infinity war and Endgame.
You nailed it. I remember this movie was one of the last I watched with my father, ´cause I was getting mature, and that feeling is unique. Also, FX seems almost funny 30 years later, but in 1977 were amazing.
even if you were in your early 20s.
I was 11.Still today I want to be an interstellar pilot thanks to saw Star Wars at the theater.Since that day I'm a sci-fi guy.Thank you Lucas.
The TIE pilot in 6:16 who actually crashed with Vader's TIE Advanced to protect him. A great sacrifice.
Or the A-Wing pilot in Jedi return who crashed to the super star destroyer
@@Dr.Chaquetas69 Yea, Arvel Crynyd, unforgettable
This first SW outing was iconic In so many ways. But this final scene, with the ever mounting tension, urgency, consequence of failure, etc. was what elevated this story to another place. Movie magic
I was six years old in 1977. I had no idea what to expect on that Saturday afternoon with my parents. My brother was four, and for those two hours, we escaped our ordinary lives, absolutely engrossed in nothing we had ever seen before. Then this... our mouths agape in a mix of awe, trepidation and fear. The sound, the action... and then THAT music. The entire theatre was silent, it was only 30 years after WW2, and many of our parents remembered that time. Everything seems lost; there were thirty of them, and now there is only Luke. At 4:57 everything comes together in a moment of sublime beauty, the whole film makes complete sense. Faith in hope. When it went up, there was no cheering, we all sat there absolutely stunned and elated. I looked to my Mum and Dad, and they were as completely amazed as I was. Cinema and my life changed at that point, my imagination was fired in a way that nothing had reached so far. I developed a love of science fiction, science, technology and the stars. For me, it is still the greatest moment in cinema history, and I have seen thousands of the greatest films. Showing it to our children a few years, we got them too, a magical moment to share and witness what my parents did all those years ago.
damn you old
What is blud yapping about?
@@triplus198fr
It was just like that. We are blessed.
Same for me man!
6:11
I love Darth Vader’s: “wHaT?”
😂😂😂
The first three minutes with no music....brilliant. Adds so much to the atmosphere.
Good call!
At 6:28, for a split second you can see the scorch mark where the Red Squad leader's targeting computer missed.
Best little detail there. You notice Luke break check Vader?
@@pjfloyd99 I was wondering what he was doing there! But he lost R2-D2 in the process...
His targeting computer… was a little off.
I always thought that was a nice touch
@@SwordHMX0:23 I know. Lol
It's STILL difficult for me to believe that this film was almost a disaster in the editing room. But the pacing, innovative EFX, shots, brilliant music, sound, and perfect cues with everything made it all work. Even the Deus Ex Machina with Solo's sneaky, surprise return is a fantastic addition (even though it's implausible that NO ONE NOTICED that giant discus flying in). 💪😎✌️
It wasn't a dissaster at all, while the original editor Lucas contracted for the early edits did a more than awfull job, he soon fired him and recruited the trio that would edit the film into a final print under Lucas' supervision. I think the falacy of this film being a complete dissaster till that trio came in is still alive despite all the evidence showing the contrary. The real problems were at the Tunisia filmin location, storms and the equippment failing constantly teared appart everyone involved to the point that it was a war of atrittion that they barely won just at the time when they were goin beyond overbudget.
Then again "the people VS George Lucas" and "How Star Wars was saved in the edit" came from complete and self-entitled assholes who were sooo burned out (in a child like way) about Lucas' expanded universe (not to confuse with the EU [RIP]) and prompt to simply share absurd lies across the board just to get people to hate the man as they hated him.
@@PointReflex Thanks for the insight.
What about the problems george had with ILM while making the film?@@PointReflex
@@troyandrew6154 That's another can of worms, while the studio did manage to complete the work required they had many setbacks, from the miniatures composite failing (during the first trench attack run in the original print, one of the A-Wings poofs out of existence out of a sudden) to the robots burning out components (due to the desert heat) or simply failing to work properly.
Great ending George, that was one in a million !
Red Leader calls Gold 5 “Gold Leader” a moment before he dies. These are small nuances you don’t pick up without watching several times that really add to a great film.
Star Wars remains unmatched to this day.
Kids today grew up with Harry Potter, but I grew up with Star Wars!
Harry Potter came around the Star Wars prequels.
I grew up on the Lord of the the rings
6:49 Han Solo: great shot that was one in a million
5:37 imagine getting shot and killed by your former boss this guy sure doesn't
It’s been 46 years and this scene still gives me chills. I will never forget watching this as a kid and being BLOWN AWAY when I saw the Millennium Falcon swoop in to save the day. One of the greatest moments in movie history! What an epic ending!
This has to be one of THE greatest movies ever made.
17 movie & tv film sequels later & yet A New Hope is still the best Star Wars film.
and Empire strikes back and Return of the Jedi.
@@notforrestbono3100 this looks so bad lmao worse than rots best is rogue one
Nah Empire is better but this one is a close second and miles better than the next best one. I'm not even someone who hates the other films but ESB and ANH are in a different league.
I'm with you Jesse mate. The first one is still the best. It's just perfect. 😀 Rogue One is my fave of the newer ones.
I'd argue that _The Empire strikes back_ is technically the *better* movie. In nearly all aspects, its an improvement over its predecessor.
But _A New Hope_ is simply more *fun,* more rewatchable.
I watched this on the big screen at 5 years old and I loved it so much, and now, the fact that I can watch this anytime I want, on a little rectangle in my pocket, never fails to amaze me. Just wild.
6:23 Han Solo: you're all clear kid now let's blow this thing and go home
“Use the Force, Luke”
"Let go, Luke"
“Luke, trust me.”
Remenber use The force jejeje
The moment where Luke switches off his targeting computer always gets me choked up. The moment where he stops trusting the "known" and puts his faith in the Force.
6:33 I was thinking this is someone on the PA noticing the reactor failing and the laser not working but apparently this guy was just stalling
I saw this in the theater when new. There was nothing ever like before or after!
70MM projection, huge screen, 6-track Dolby Stereo. Shivers just remembering it
@@gittes98 Same here. Saw it opening week in 1977. CHANGED MY LIFE, forever.
@@Jedizen07 Yes, this movie will always be Star Wars not that New Hope crap that the later generations call it. First saw it in Seattle in the above presentation btw.
@@Jedizen07 Likewise - you stole my words!
Tru dat, as the kids say
I’m crying, it’s feels like I’m a kid again
I don't know what's more amazing: that he filmed Darth Vader flying away from the Death Star to reappear in the sequel, or that he forgot about that when he allowed Darth Maul to be cut in two in _The Phantom Menace?_
Lately I always get baffled by this decision! Maul would've been a great recurring villain in the prequels, as a kid I was not invested in Count Dooku whereas I absolutely loved Maul! His death scene as he just stands there bamboozled by Obi Wan jumping up is quite underwhelming for someone so hyped up during the rest of the movie as a deadly and skilled foe.
There was standing applause in every theater where people saw it for the first time.
My mom saw it with my dad when she was carrying me, so I like to say that I was there. Lol, anyway, she said that when the Falcon swooped in, the place went insane!
@@GC0077 It's like playing classical music through a speaker into mama's tummy. Heck yes you experienced it.
2023 and still getting goosebumps
I’m here for Han Solo’s epic line of “You’re all clear kid, now let’s blow this thing and go home”. Talk about a supportive friend.
Now imagine Chewbacca’s response, probably along the lines of “Rrrrrrggggghhhhh!!!!!”
As an 8 year old watching this in 1977, no movie since has shaped my life for engaging and being apart of something bigger than yourself. Spectacular film .
You do realize this is the post 1997 version, right?
yes the original didnt have a giant gurt ring around the Death Star when it blew@@ChristianFrates1997
This never gets old!
Shout out to John Williams, greatest composer since Beethoven. A century from now people will be studying him as one of the all time greats.
I remember when I had seen it at first time many years ago. I was a little boy because of caught cold was sitting at home. I watched all SW series. And this scene... It was really exciting experience. So tensed and thrilling. And even now it's so atmospheric. Yes, it's cinematic and theatrics but in a good meaning. You emphathise with the characters. And it is a marker of a good old school movie. Perfect!
I remember in 1977, when the death star exploded, the audience sprang to its feet and cheered at the tops of their lungs
I just wish they had done more with Biggs! He was my favorite of the rebel pilots.
They did earlier in the movie but they deleted those scenes.
I forgot which book series it was, but Biggs' Brother, Gavin Darklighter joined the Rebels.
@@stevenmorrison4692Dumbest editing choice they could've made with this film. When he shows up later, there's zero context to be able to empathise with Luke in his reunion.
@@ZenMonkeyGod It didn't work for the movie, but did work for _Star Wars: The Radio Drama_ on NPR, when there was a whole episode devoted to Luke and his peers.
There is rough cuts of Biggs on film ......type it in on YT
The best movie scene ever.
Tarkin's last thought was "If only I'd listened to that General when he warned me of danger."
The general's last thought likely was: "I should've gotten the hell off this ship myself and let Tarkin die."
Tarkin was overconfident in the Death Star.
@@alifwibisono1000Tarkin was screwed either way. If he left, and they ended up winning, The Emperor would have killed him during their next meeting.
The officer who warned Tarkin did actually survive. He turns up in the Christmas Special, so presumably he just took his own advice and left.
His last thought was, "What the f$&k was tha--
The last thing to go through Tarkin’s mind was a piece of the Death Star.
I need someone to make this video: start A New Hope at a specific time on New Years Eve, that way the Death Star will explode at exactly midnight. BTW, the Death Star explodes at 6:39 in this video.
I've been inspired by those videos of people watching Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, timing them so the Snap occurs at midnight. I see tons of potential for that with Star Wars. In addition to A New Hope, I propose other things like:
- Empire Strikes Back timed so Vader says: "I am your father!" at midnight.
- Return of the Jedi timed so the second Death Star explodes at midnight.
The actor who played the commander of Red Squadron said he walked onto the hanger set and everything looked dirty, dust and the X-wings all had battle damage. This is when he knew someone knew what they were doing. This was not some sterile sci fi picture like 2001, this was a war movie set in space.
Wow it took me this long to realise that Vader AKA Anakin just shot R2D2 his fellow friend during Clone Wars. I know he didnt know that plus as Vader said Anakin is dead.
Han: “You’re all clear, kid! Now let’s blow this thing and go home!”
The first Star Wars is a freaking masterpiece. And the music from 2:45 onward. It's a true space opera.
Remember, the force will be with you always
There's a lot about this whole sequence that's really unique to this film only. Never again would a single space battle be the climax of a Star War. Individual dogfights turned into massive battles with hundreds of fighters. Here when the X-Wings make a slight bank the engines roar. In the next film the Falcon is casually zipping through asteroids. The military jargon goes away. There's long periods of time here where John Williams is completely absent. When he does appear, he gives these long tense buildups like 3:50 getting our hearts racing until the Force theme comes in and gives release.
For the most part you're watching normal people take on the largest Empire. The Rebels have no Jedi masters, no 10-year old prodigies, no Resistance flying aces. They get picked off one by one and each death is focused on just to make you feel how much lower the chance of success is with each loss. Luke finally using the Force _is the climax of the entire movie_ and not a superpower we're just used to everyone having.
Frankly Dunkirk is closer to this than even Return of the Jedi. And I love that almost 50 years later and billions into this universe this still feels special (even if it is only Dambusters in Space).
I 100% agree. The dogfighting reminds me of the dogfighting scenes from Midway which just came out a year before Star Wars. As a major fighter plane nerd, the original Star Wars will always be my favourite for having dogfighting scenes mimick some of the old school squadron based WWII Era dogfights.
@@christophergrant472 The Return of the Jedi battle is a masterpiece of special effects (the Revenge of the Sith one too for CGI) but I always preferred this one because of the close personal combat. The other ones are so massive you lose the luxury of that closeness.
I've never thought of this as Dambusters in space, but you're right and that hasn't diminished my love of 'The Dambusters'. They're both among my list of favourite movies! I'd never seen anything like Star Wars, it was drama on a grand scale and before CGI, the special effects were pretty amazing! Prior to this, my favourite sci-fi film was 'Forbidden Planet' and, even though some of the special effects are a bit clunky, they manage to achieve some scary moments. ❤
@@Coolbardie There's some compilation videos out there that show it more. There's shots and dialogue ripped directly from Dambusters here.
It tracks. Star Wars is like a film of films. WW2 films, samurai films, fantasy films, the ship designs from Space Odyssey. Set it all on Arrakis (inspired by Lawrence of Arabia). I don't mean any of that negatively either. It's awesome.
@@kueller917Thanks for that info. I'll check them out. I'll have to watch The Dambusters again to see if I can pick up which dialogue. 😊 Star Wars is awesome, isn't it. I'll never forget seeing the star destroyer gradually appearing on the screen. It looked so real and there were so many more amazing scenes. George Lucas is a genius!
5:16 The music cue that plays when Luke switches off his targeting computer gives me chills every time.
I was 10 years when we watched this in the cinemas. I still remember the whole cinema exploding into cheers when the Death Star blew up.
Star Wars is a masterpiece of a film!! I don't believe anything will ever rival this in motion picture for it's powerful moral story and special effects, especially the music !!
This scene makes me cry every time.
Me too!
Me too. I just got teared up.
Another reason: That "Stand by, stand by" was the head gunner on the superlaser, remorseful over Alderaan, desperately stalling for time.
I cry more to this scene after watching rogue one
Still gets my heart racing
You did it, Luke!
By god, you did it!!
AWESOME! THE NEW STAR WARS MOVIES, DONT EVEN COME CLOSE!
To this very day, give me goosebumps…still such a very powerful scene in all of cinema
"Great shot kid, that was one in a million!" That line takes me back to when I was a kid first watching this film
0:03
The way that guy died just careless putting his head down
Also, I wonder if Darth Vadar recognized R2 on Luke's X-wing, considering he's been R2's partner for almost 2 decades before he got turned into a cyborg.
When I was 10 I went to the movies and after that I saw the world with different eyes. I couldn't fall asleep that night. I was so excited. It was the best one in a million!
Still the greatest memory of my childhood. Can’t believe The Last Jedi destroyed Star Wars but it did
I think the reaction to TLJ destroyed Star Wars. Not the movie.
@@AngelGonzalez-kl5hz well the reaction is result of the movie
@@cmsacademy1673 Hot take. I think TLJ is a very good movie that deconstructed the myth of the franchise and understood the characters better than the fandom.

Luke:shoot torpedo
_(Torpedoes flow into the exhaust port!)_

I always wondered y they didn't go in nearer the target rather than start miles away
Someone's got a sense of humour whoever liked this respect
You gotta give it some distance to ready up the targeting computer to align the trajectory. Not everyone has the force like luke
I always thought they had only a small area to breach the trench from static defenses. The small task force they had couldn't disable a moon's worth of AA guns and such with a legion of Tie fighters and only like a 30-45 minute time span. Blow a hole in the defensive net, get in the trench, pray you make it to the exhaust port
The Y Wings need cover escort
Back when Star Wars was pure.
Here's a strange story about my dad: he was 7 years old in 1977 when he saw this in a Cinema theater in a small town in Louisiana, and what I heard from my Grandmother my Dad's Mother, is that she told me my dad found this movie very Intense, that at times he ran out of the theater cause he was scared, I don't know why but I'm pretty sure that this scene was a little too much for my Dad at the Time... I was Confused and Amazed.....
It must have been a year or two after the original release by my Dad and Brother went to see Star Wars and my Mom took me to see The Jungle Book at the same time. The Jungle Book was over so we went to watch the rest of Star Wars with them. I think we went in at the Trash Compactor Scene and it was too loud or something because I remember that we left and just waited outside. I had to have been only 3 years old at the time.
I was only a year older than your dad at that time. I thought it was kid-friendly enough. I was intimidated, especially by Darth Vader, but not scared. It was quite an experience.
Star Wars changed the movie industry. It was unlike anything we had ever seen before. Watching it on opening night in 1977 is a historical experience. The scene of the Millennium Falcon swooping in when no one expected it is one of the greatest uses of dues ex machina (God in the machine) in cinematic history. At this point, you think Han is long gone with his reward and that Luke is going to be killed. Until you see blaster fire come out of nowhere and see Han Solo of all people come back to save the day. To this day, it is still one of the greatest movies ever!
This scene makes my heart beat♡
There aren't many movies that can described as perfect, but this is definitely one of them.
Vader must have strongly considered just flying out to the Unknown Regions and retiring, rather than face the Emperor's fury.
Vader: "Where is that Yoda hiding out at? Maybe I could room with him."
2:44 YEAHHHHHHH XDDDDDD, he looks like he is cheering lmfao XD
STAY ON TARGET
STAY ON TARGET
Just experienced the El Paso Symphony Orchestra play the score of the movie and I swear, it was such an experience I nearly cried! John Williams’ score sends waves of chills everytime!
Classic is classic.
May the force be with you!
That's how you re-write cinema history
Wherever Darth Vader landed after that, I wouldn't want to be the guy who has to go meet him.
6:57
Vader went flying
*Spoiler Alert!* Anakin sense Ezra that he kidnap Thrawn with the Purgills during the liberation of Lothal
6:11 best delivery in film history

ハンソロが最高にカッコいい‼️
このシーンがあったから、今も続くスターウォーズ人気があるよね。
The music towards the end absolutely nails it.
5:01 USE THE FORCE LUKE LET GO
its honesty amazing how they essentially made the fighter scenes with practical effects and models, they legit look real even today
Vader is so good in this whole sequence.
The music cue at 6:00 is so laden with threat and possibility. Great stuff.
The editing and pacing is like music. This movie is “one in a million”
This isn't a clip from the original 1977 release. It's a special edition. But i still love it 😊
4:30 In Rogue Squadron 2, Biggs screams as he is shot down
Man, I think we all underestimate the presence of Peter Cushing in this film. Legendary.
Unbeatable.
