You know what death got me as a kid seeing the movies when they came out? The Hoth Rebels in Empire Strikes Back who were gunned down by walkers as they were running away. Seriously, it really made me see how evil the Empire was as they kept shooting at them after they stopped fighting back
Everything that happened in Jabba's Palace would be considered a nightmare for anyone who ended up there in real life. You were either hung on the wall as a trophy, thrown in the dungeon, tortured and ripped apart, eaten by the rancor, sarlacc or any other beasts Jabba had, or enslaved. Making them puppet/muppet like was to make it more kiddish but the reality was truly frightening for the average person who found themselves there
If you haven't gotten to the prequels yet, I suggest Jango's deleted longer death where his arm is chopped off and a huge gash is sliced out of his thigh before getting beheaded.
Or grievous's deleted death where obi wan cuts off each hand individually, pulls grievous's internal organs out, throws them across the floor, shoots them and throws grievous's body down the sinkhole. What were they thinking?
I’ve always wondered if the captured Rebels from the beginning of A New Hope were also in the Deathstars detention block with Leia? If so then Luke killed them when he blew up the Deathstar.
You do know that several stormtroopers were not only killed but eaten by the Ewoks, right? They were ready to cook Han alive for their golden god so they probably did the same to imperial soldiers too.
Family Guy showed the Ewoks cooking Imperials at the end. Han(Peter Griffith) exclaims, 'Let's celebrate the fact that we just killed thousands of people!'
Same. I got most of the toys before I saw ROTJ -- I missed it in the cinemas and had to wait until it was shown on TV, years later. By then, I'd had a couple of years to play with the rancor and his keeper, and when I saw that scene, it hit me hard. And since then, it seems every piece of media that uses rancors seems to treat them very badly, indeed.
He spent his entire life being raised by them and barely reacts to them being incinerated, he spent two days with the weird hermit that his uncle hated (or, at least, vocally disliked) and was pretty much inconsolable when he got hit by a lightsaber and vanished. It doesn't add up at all. I will say, though, womp rats (which I'm guessing are the small animals you were referring to) are enormous. The 2 metre hole is the Death Star defences is described as being not much smaller than them, putting them at nearly 7 feet.
Harrison ford throwing Nazi's off cliffs that then do the "Wilhelm Scream...." Oh wait that was on Endor with the Imperial officer Han threw charges at the fell to his doom at the shield generator. Same Wilhelm Scream LOL Love Spielberg, but I prefer DUEL LOL Not many words, the story is in your head visually.
What about the battle droid calling out that got left in the desert by general grievous. Dude did not deserve that. And that show really was “for kids”
Here's a quirk. In the Death Star 1 we se Porkins, Red 6,plow in. Then later when Luke is dodging a TIE, somebody calls "Red 6, can you see Red 5?". Despite having been dead for a bit, Red 6, Porkins, answers. Oh, znd with the torpedo shot, Luke kills over a million people, a vast number of them non-combatants. So Luke becomes a mass killer who easily surpasses his Daddy's body count, still well behind Tarkin, of course. And had Uncle Owen not been stubborn, Luke probably would, in due course, have become a standout TIE pilot for the Empire. It was, after all, the *Im po erial* Academy Luke wanted to apply to.
Maybe it lets you leave but if you try to enter you crash. Could be one way. Maybe they're the same kind of satellite as operation cinder an older technology and Palpatine based he's is on this.
Admiral Kendal Ozzel. OK, he's a schmuck. Not a great officer, clearly incompetent. However, his death is messed up. Immediately after finding out from General Maximilian Veers that there's an energy shield protecting Hoth that's strong enough to deflect an orbital bombardment, Vader gives Veers orders to begin landing his troops. He then contacts Ozzel via the ship's comm and begins to force choke Ozzel. While Ozzel is still dying in the background, Vader casually gives orders to Captain Firmus Piett and promotes Piett to Ozzel's position as Ozzel is expiring on the floor next to Piett. I don't care who it happens to, that's just messed up.
Just noticed Jules was referring to "Star Wars" as "Star Wars" ! Have Disney decided that it should be called by it's proper original title again? I'm only saying this because I saw it on the first day of General Release (27/12/1977) and for three years we knew it as "Star Wars" - Then when "The Empire strikes Back" was released, practically everyone in the Cinema at the time said "Five? Episode Five?" (and various combinations thereof) Nice Video. Though I would have changed the order around a bit . . . .
DON'T hire obscure "actors" down on their luck to do one of the most pivotal death scenes, someone else worked hard to earn that and should have gotten it, just sayin".
Why do some people pronounce ATAT "Eighty-Eighty" when, ever since The Empire Strikes Back came out, fans have called them At-Ats? It's something I've only started hearing in the last few years. Is it something said in the numerous TV spin-offs or just an example of a generational divide?
@@McKayDarkwood with acronyms, you can go either way. I think in the case of the AT-AT, we also have the AT-ST in the same movie, which kind of forces itself to be pronounced using individual letters.
Colonel Yularen's death hits hard. I really liked him in TCW. Also, Tarkin's hits hard too. All he was doing was trying to avoid another civil war that would tear apart the Galaxy. As for destroying Alderaan, blame their government for supporting a terrorist organization that was seeking to overthrow a legitimate government. IRL, Tarkin would be viewed as a hero like Air Marshal Harris & US General LeMay are.
It's still for kids, nerds! Accept it. It's why the franchise continues to endure. Don't be embarrassed because you like a children's franchise. Be open-minded and accept that you can like things made for any audience.

You´re right! I never thought about that.
I always thought about that too. In fact, when I first saw the movie, I thought they would all be freed with Leia.
Since y'all brought up C-3PO being blown apart what about when R2 was shot when he was trying to open the door to the shield generator
You do know that several stormtroopers were not only killed but eaten by the Ewoks, right? They were ready to cook Han alive for their golden god so they probably did the same to imperial soldiers too.
Yes, that I did know
Family Guy showed the Ewoks cooking Imperials at the end. Han(Peter Griffith) exclaims, 'Let's celebrate the fact that we just killed thousands of people!'
Star Wars the Forces of Destiny showed Ewoks about to cook Stormtroopers & Princess Leia stopped them.
That is still only a fan theory and not even a good one.
@Thornbloom It's not a fan theory we see them tie people to logs and put them over fire to cook & eat but people stop them from going any further.
The Stormtrooper who falls down the shaft in the Death Star, screaming. Reminds you that there's a person in that armour.
Re: “Star Wars is for kids”
Rogue 1 & ANDOR disagree
The Clone Wars cartoon is about the good guys using child and slave soldiers.
The 14 year old main character even does a few beheadings.
I think we're talking about the more innocent times of the 70s/80s
I still feel bad for the Rancor Keeper....
Same. I got most of the toys before I saw ROTJ -- I missed it in the cinemas and had to wait until it was shown on TV, years later. By then, I'd had a couple of years to play with the rancor and his keeper, and when I saw that scene, it hit me hard.

Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru are burned alive…and Luke couldn’t care less. He also kills small animals. Luke Skywalker is a psychopath.
He spent his entire life being raised by them and barely reacts to them being incinerated, he spent two days with the weird hermit that his uncle hated (or, at least, vocally disliked) and was pretty much inconsolable when he got hit by a lightsaber and vanished.

I don't think that was in the original trilogy
Wasn't that Clone Wars?
@@brunozeigerts6379 Original trilogy is only the 4, 5, 6
I think the death of Kanan Jarrus in Rebels was especially heartbreaking
Here's a quirk. In the Death Star 1 we se Porkins, Red 6,plow in. Then later when Luke is dodging a TIE, somebody calls "Red 6, can you see Red 5?". Despite having been dead for a bit, Red 6, Porkins, answers.

It's a tie. Amedalia's death and the murder of the younglings in the Jedi Temple. 😭😭😭

Is anyone gonna talk about how the lady from X2 that was filled adamantine is still alive and in a pool?
The gonk droid in jabbas palace

Yeah, that sounds like a kid's movie. ;)
OK is no one gonna talk about order 66 the younglings😢😢😢

One Tauntaun was pregnant and the other was the first ones mum. Where did you get this rubbish from?
He obviously has a thing for Tauntauns Lol
