Actually the title was originally return of the Jedi but gary kursher thought the tile was weak. The title was then changed to revenge of the Jedi. The title was changed back to return of the Jedi because a jedi doesn't take revenge. Source: Empire of Dreams
Crystal Stover there’s a fact after that one where he talks about “revenge” being used for promo material and he says “he went back to the original name” implying he knew that but ignored it 2 facts back
I would have loved to have seen the original version of revenge. There was too many cut in the movie from the middle to the end. Scenes from these would jump across the screen
+David Maglioli I love how this little tidbit sparked an entire lore behind it stating that Luke designed his own lightsaber in respect to Yoda, his late mentor, as opposed to Anakin's being handed down to him. Adding a bit of spirituality to Luke since not only is green representing the force specializing vs the blue lightsaber wielders who specialize in sword fighting. All of this thanks to a production fear.
+vinaloi41 There are plenty of examples of tribal people leaving their primitive settings and learning how to adapt to the modern world. Lucas just wanted to cash in on the teddy bear merch.
Originally Wookies were the creatures on Endor. But go back in time to 1976 and none of this was yet released or a success. There was a giant possibility the film would fail and the second and third films never see light. This is primarily why Ep 4 feels like a condensed version of the trilogy. Mr. Lucas liked the Wookie so much he re-wrote the script for 4, the original co-pilot of the Falcon was scrapped and he made the co-pilot a Wookie. If the film had failed and he had not done this, no one today would know what a Wookie is. When the film was a success, and a few years later faced with the dilemma of Endor Wookies, the simplest solution was to cut them in half and make them more primitive. The Ewok, for better or worse, was born. And that is what Mr. Lucas said himself in a video interview with Leonard Maltin back in the early 1990s before the Special Edition version was released.
George Lucas made Wookies into Ewoks because of the Kenner action figues. I was a kid back then. We all already had Chewy, some of us were onto our second lot of figures cos the originals had been lost or set of fire or whatever. Then suddenly there's these cute little teddy figures, four or five in different sizes & colours with little spears & these headscarf things you could remove & Luke & Leia in their forest camo fatigues, you had to have Luke & Leia in forest camo fatigues & if you didn't have a speeder that broke into bits when you pressed the button disguised as a utility pack you were an asshole tbh... It was a marketing ploy & boy did we fall for it.
The "Blue Harvest," fake production title wasn't just to avoid attracting crowds, it was primarily so the production wouldn't be price-gouged by vendors. If all the contractors and local vendors in and around the shooting locations, outside the studio, knew it was the third Star Wars movie, they could jack up the prices of their services. And there wouldn't be a THING Lucasfilm could do about it, once the information was out. They still do it now, Rian Johnson used, "Space Bear," whenever they shot scenes outside the studio, on location. If he used, "Star Wars episode 8!" everything would have cost them massive amounts more.
I have a fan theory. R2-D2 is the first droid force-user. It explains how Artoo *always* survives. How he and Threepio were able to cross the hallway during the firefight opening Ep. IV without being blasted to scrap, for example. Why the red "R2 unit has a bad motivator, look!" Or, "I've lost Artoo!" but here he still is. He has a long history of association with the Jedi, and, while Threepio is mind-wiped on occasion, we never hear of Artoo being mind-wiped. Matter of fact, in the Clone Wars animated, they mention that he has never been mind-wiped. Did a story arc based on it. He's also a mechanic, tool-user and part-builder. . . who designed, built, and 'infected' himself with 'nanochlorians.' Threepio is his unknowing apprentice. . . which is how he survives being dismantled so many times. The chrome leg and the red arm are droid analogs for Luke's bionic hand, Vader's arms and legs, etc.
I only TRULY like the ending of episode 2, every thing without love in episode 3 most of episode 4 except for the planning scenes, all of 5 besides the asteroid scenes, and the star and end of episode 6.
A few corrections and additions: Richard Marquand DID appear on screen as an ATST driver, in the scene where Chewie pulls out one of the pilots, the other on IS Marquand There is no sneaker in the asteroid sequence, there is a potato... the sneaker appears in the final space battle In an earlier version the Falcon fails to escape the Death Star, but test audiences protested, so despite Han Solo's foreshadowing, the Falcon survided The original 1:1 Falcon however got destroyed in a fire, thats why a dismal matte painting was used in the rebel hangar
It was Warwick Davis' mum who pushed for him to join the film, they stated auditions were closed. It was only when found out his height and thought he would fit in as a younger ewok
Technically the Death Star would be a lot more feasable because in Star Wars with so many planets there would be a lot greater access to necessary materials
you missed one, i think. in the imperial fleet, the pride of tarlandia, which was a command ship, was destroyed by blue and green squadron, which was mainly b-wings. it was originally gonna be a scene in the movie, but because of how thin the wings of the b-wing were, it was hard to shoot, and all scenes with the b-wing were cut from the movie. thats why the b-wing is only seen during the beginning and end of the whole battle.
Fact 1 is wrong, lucas dropped out from the dga cause it man dated that you had to open up with credits, but lucas wanted to have the star wars crawl first, so he dropped out to preserve his vision
+Wario64I I felt as if millions of voices cried out in sadness, while simultaneously having a huge pang in their heart, as if they lost a friend, first.
"Revenge of the Jedi" is all over The Goldberg show (until the episode about Return of the Jedi). Also, I never realized that the Death Star II was bigger than the original :P
On fact #7, it is actually reversed and was not Lawrence Kasdan. If you watch the "Empire of Dreams: The Story of the Star Wars Saga" at about two hours and one minute into it, George Lucas told Howard Kazanjian that the title for Episode VI, was "Return of the Jedi," and Howard thought it was a weak title, and it was about a day or two days later, that George came back and said it was being called "Revenge of the Jedi." Of course about a few weeks before the movie was set to be released George told Howard that he wanted to go back to using "Return of the Jedi" because he felt the logic behind it was that a Jedi does seek revenge.
Finally confirmed, Endor was filmed in British Columbia, NOW I KNOW WHY ENDOR LOOKS LIKE MY BACKYARD IN BATTLEFRONT. God damn, if Ewoks we're fucking bears I'd have 5 of them.
Jabbas Sail barge scene was filmed in Butter Cup Valley California not Arizona and here's a fact for you, George couldn't afford to take down the set so instead of taking it away they rented tractors and buried it in big holes.
+Arnav Ranade in my opinion (best to worst): 4 A New Hope 5 Empire Strikes Back 7 The Force Awakens 6 Return of the Jedi 3 Revenge of the Sith 1 The Phantom Menace ( it had good lego levels okay) 2 Attack of the Clones
"The sound of Jabba the Hutt's slithery moves was created by soundman Ben Burtt running his hands through a cheese casserole." I don't know why hearing that makes me laugh so much. Maybe it's just how the person reading the facts says that line as though running your hands through a cheese casserole is something you would do every day, just because.
Also, the "green lightsaber" was changed from blue, because of it blending with blue sky. Also the line "It's a trap!" was first said by Leia in Empire, when Luke showed up. She screams, "Luke, it's a trap!"
Let's all take a moment to not rank the Star Wars movies, and just enjoy the fact that they all have something good about them. Except Episode 2. Fuck that movie.
Except that the species of the pictured thugs is Weequay: so named for Melville's Queequeg. Another species of Jabba's thugs are called Nikto as well, and another are called Klatooinians, and yet another are called Baradans.
you got number 7 wrong, the original title was Return of the Jedi, then he told Lucas Return was a weak title, so he changed it to Revenge, only later to figure that Jedi aren't suppose to take revenge, so he changed it back to return Number 67, the reason the lightsaber was green and not blue is because they were afraid the blue lightaber wouldnt be recognized in front of a blue sky on tatooine, so, they made it green
Where’s Crix Madine? The actor, Dermot Crowley, walked on set to film the mission briefing sequence only to be told that Kenner, the toy company who owned the rights to the Star Wars action figures, made Madine’s figure have a beard. The makeup team has to stick a fake beard to his face in order to fix the “error”. Also Crowley filmed all of Ackbar’s lines as Madine just in case the puppet for Ackbar did not turn out as planned
I saw this on theaters when it came out. When one of the Ewoks said "chocha" my Puerto Rican friends started laughing. Apparently that word refers to a certain female body part in Spanish slang.
They also used blue harvest to keep filming costs down if people knew it was as big as Star Wars they would've demanded more money for filming so they used blue harvest
Fact 81: Even if it is true to that Vader didn't Force Choke anyone in the movie there was going to be a scene with Vader going to the Emperor, Moff Jejjerod (the guy who Vader complains to that the Construction of Death Star II was falling behind and when he tells him that the Emeror was going to come, the Moff promised Vader that the crew would double their efforts) and two Imperial Royal Guards deny him access to the elevator which leaded up to the throne room but then Vader Force Chokes Jejjerod to which he gives Vader access. This was cut from the film, most likely of time issues and wasn't necessary for the story.
While it's cool to think that Luke could've been the new Darth Vader, another concept that I thought would be brilliant was if Luke puts on the helmet, and says something like 'No, this isn't right'. Anyone agrees with me on this?
I thought they changed lukes light-saber to green because the sky was blue during jabbas fight scene was blue and they changed it to make it more clearer to see
JustinEvitable80 Episode 2 has it when the Naboo ship gets bombed on coruscant. Episode 7 has it when Finn is shooting Stormtroopers with the TIE in the Star Destroyer.
Died laughing when I heard klatu barda nicto. Now I know where Army of Darkness got it and its hilarious to think of Bruce saying it probably knowing full well it was a Star Wars reference. You learn something new everyday

Luke's lightsaber was green because Lucas feared the blue wouldn't show up well against the blue sky on Tatooine.
+David Maglioli I love how this little tidbit sparked an entire lore behind it stating that Luke designed his own lightsaber in respect to Yoda, his late mentor, as opposed to Anakin's being handed down to him. Adding a bit of spirituality to Luke since not only is green representing the force specializing vs the blue lightsaber wielders who specialize in sword fighting. All of this thanks to a production fear.
He later made up that Jedi Knights use green instead of blue. Like Yoda.
They said that he used obi-wan's design with a green kyber crystal.
Samuel l Jackson wanted a purple lightsaber to stand out but then a whole lore was made behind the purple lightsaber meaning
Thats part of it but they were also correct
George Lucas said he made Ewoks because it would make no sense for Wookies to be tribal if Chewbacca could fly a space ship.
That actually makes a lot of sense.
+vinaloi41 There are plenty of examples of tribal people leaving their primitive settings and learning how to adapt to the modern world. Lucas just wanted to cash in on the teddy bear merch.

I love Return of the Jedi more than I love Empire. I know, it's an unpopular opinion, but I have to be true to my heart.
same here ROTJ is alot more fun, colorful and fast pased compared to empire
If you fast forward to the parts where the Ewoks start winning, it’s not as dark as Empire and pushes the pace
I 2nd that ... ; )

There’s a Legends novel called “Red Harvest” about a bunch of Sith Zombies that a Jedi has to stop.
BTW nice profile pic.
"wardrobe malfunctions"
You mean it fell off?
Yep
That’s what a wardrobe malfunction is
I feel sorry for Carrie Fisher.
I have a fan theory.
R2-D2 is the first droid force-user.
It explains how Artoo *always* survives.
How he and Threepio were able to cross the hallway during the firefight opening Ep. IV without being blasted to scrap, for example. Why the red "R2 unit has a bad motivator, look!" Or, "I've lost Artoo!" but here he still is.
He has a long history of association with the Jedi, and, while Threepio is mind-wiped on occasion, we never hear of Artoo being mind-wiped. Matter of fact, in the Clone Wars animated, they mention that he has never been mind-wiped. Did a story arc based on it.
He's also a mechanic, tool-user and part-builder. . . who designed, built, and 'infected' himself with 'nanochlorians.'
Threepio is his unknowing apprentice. . . which is how he survives being dismantled so many times. The chrome leg and the red arm are droid analogs for Luke's bionic hand, Vader's arms and legs, etc.
For me, there is no weakest film of the original trilogy.
+Mr. Fedora well said
+Mr. Fedora I beg to differ. I believe Empire is better than New Hope and Return of the Jedi.
+Mr. Fedora nostalgia.
+Mr. Fedora except for ROTJ
+Mr. Fedora ROTJ is definitely the one
an eleven year old dwarf, how on earth did they know he was a dwarf!
His more oddly misproportioned body when compared to other eleven years olds?
+tomas mcmanus Yeah, dwarves have misproportioned arms and legs when compared to the rest of their body.
+tomas mcmanus Dwarfism comes with a ton of medical complications starting from birth.
the picture of him that was shown was him creepily sitting in the lap of Carrie Fisher with her slave bikini on...
i love all star wars movies, even the prequels
+Joshua Bayer I can see that.
well thats not... accurate
+Gavin Hebert its his opinion
you spelled especially wrong
I only TRULY like the ending of episode 2, every thing without love in episode 3 most of episode 4 except for the planning scenes, all of 5 besides the asteroid scenes, and the star and end of episode 6.
A few corrections and additions:
Richard Marquand DID appear on screen as an ATST driver, in the scene where Chewie pulls out one of the pilots, the other on IS Marquand
There is no sneaker in the asteroid sequence, there is a potato... the sneaker appears in the final space battle
In an earlier version the Falcon fails to escape the Death Star, but test audiences protested, so despite Han Solo's foreshadowing, the Falcon survided
The original 1:1 Falcon however got destroyed in a fire, thats why a dismal matte painting was used in the rebel hangar
They had the Ewok costume feet custom fitted for the actors inside?
Too bad they couldn't spring enough cash to do the same for Peter Cushing's boots!
🤣🍻
When someone gives you a compliment
"THX"
Don't worry. Luke got a girlfriend in the awesome Thrawn trilogy. ...oh wait.
Yeah, his assassin, and I own the new essential guide to characters. There is no explanation on how she chose to love him instead of killing him
so it was Gonna be called Revenge of the Jedi and if that title stayed, would Revenge of the Sith be called Return of the Sith?
That title actually fits better
+John Devine no it doesn't because the with is present in all prequels
+josh reed Yew, it'w true, the with waw alwayw sith us, wince the beginning.
XD
+Nickplays631 no it doesn't
Return of the Jedi is my fave
It was Warwick Davis' mum who pushed for him to join the film, they stated auditions were closed. It was only when found out his height and thought he would fit in as a younger ewok
those revenge of the Jedi posters are about 3-6 grand now
This is my favorite Star Wars movie.
luke had a green lightsaber because a blue lightsaber blended in with the sky during the tatooine scenes
Technically the Death Star would be a lot more feasable because in Star Wars with so many planets there would be a lot greater access to necessary materials
also in a deleted scene vader force chokes someones so incorrect
+Pixels the key words being *deleted scene*, which means not actually in the movie.

13:28 damn and here I thought only Sam Raimi ripped that off haha, classic.
The Endor scenes were filmed in California at the Redwood national forest. Not British Columbia. None it was shot in Canada.
Are you gonna do 107 facts on each of the Star Wars Prequels?
Yes please do! As a REAL Star Wars fan, I love or at least liked ALL seven epsiodes in the Star Wars Saga unlike those who didn't.
#108: The Family Guy Star Wars special was also named "Blue Harvest".
Well Vader did force choke Jerjerrod in a deleted scene.
Keyword is DELETED meaning not in the official film
There was one I just learned that wasn't on this list. Return of the Jedi was George Lukas's least favourite of the six
107 Home Alone facts plz....
ROTJ was not filmed in British Columbia.
It was filmed in the Redwood Forest. Northern California.
Fact 1 is wrong, lucas dropped out from the dga cause it man dated that you had to open up with credits, but lucas wanted to have the star wars crawl first, so he dropped out to preserve his vision
*mandated
Bigfoot headcanon: Nerd in a Chewbacca costume
The ending of the movie makes me sad....
13:17 That’s wrong. Jabba weighed about 4400 pounds. They mentioned how heavy he was due to the amount of clay and silicone he required.
26 is wrong, that was deleted scene from after they rescue han, leading up to when luke leaves for dagobah
+jukeboxdude97 the key words being *deleted scene*, which means not actually in the movie.
well yeah but you guys said it was the cut ending, thats why i pointed it out
+jukeboxdude97 yup it was never meant to b in the end of the movie
I guess they just used the deleted sandstorm scene because that one shot of Luke kinda fit to the fact.

"Revenge of the Jedi" is all over The Goldberg show (until the episode about Return of the Jedi).
Also, I never realized that the Death Star II was bigger than the original :P
1:50 Lucas said "Revenge is not a Jedi concept." That's why it was changed. this is well documented.
On fact #7, it is actually reversed and was not Lawrence Kasdan. If you watch the "Empire of Dreams: The Story of the Star Wars Saga" at about two hours and one minute into it, George Lucas told Howard Kazanjian that the title for Episode VI, was "Return of the Jedi," and Howard thought it was a weak title, and it was about a day or two days later, that George came back and said it was being called "Revenge of the Jedi." Of course about a few weeks before the movie was set to be released George told Howard that he wanted to go back to using "Return of the Jedi" because he felt the logic behind it was that a Jedi does seek revenge.
No, Jabba's first appearence was in A New Hope...
Said the new generation.... sigh
Blame George Lucas
He was...
In the deleted scenes.
Shut up
Yeah lucas is an idiot sometimes
He was A-hole he was just human in the orginal, human or not its still Jabba the Hutt. Bobba Fett wasnt in the Orginal.
Even with the release of VII, VI is still my favorite
Finally confirmed, Endor was filmed in British Columbia, NOW I KNOW WHY ENDOR LOOKS LIKE MY BACKYARD IN BATTLEFRONT. God damn, if Ewoks we're fucking bears I'd have 5 of them.
I'm dying right now XD
Unfortunately not filmed in BC. The Endor scenes were in the Redwood Forest of California.
Jabbas Sail barge scene was filmed in Butter Cup Valley California not Arizona and here's a fact for you, George couldn't afford to take down the set so instead of taking it away they rented tractors and buried it in big holes.
WAIT A MINUTE, WHAT IF GEORGE LUCAS WAS JUST PLAYING AND APRIL FOOLS PRANK ON #27
What Did You Think of Episode VII? (NO SPOILERS PLEASE!)
Best Star Wars yet!! Combined the Prequels' better CGI and the Original trilogy's story. This is, the best Star Wars yet in my opinion
+Cinematica It was actually pretty good.
+Wario64I thgir rouy puy. Get it
+Cinematica 10/10
the movie was awsome
7:14 - Lucas actually directed more, because the cast didn't like the official director.

"The sound of Jabba the Hutt's slithery moves was created by soundman Ben Burtt running his hands through a cheese casserole."
I don't know why hearing that makes me laugh so much. Maybe it's just how the person reading the facts says that line as though running your hands through a cheese casserole is something you would do every day, just because.
5:57 in 1982-3 it surely would have been " expository dialog on BLUE screen"
19:27 why show the computer generated ALTERED one instead of the animatronic one being mentioned
Episode V Palpitine: "I believe Luke Skywalker is the offspring of ANIKAN SKYWALKER"
Also, the "green lightsaber" was changed from blue, because of it blending with blue sky. Also the line "It's a trap!" was first said by Leia in Empire, when Luke showed up. She screams, "Luke, it's a trap!"
Love the White House's response to the Death Star petition. Both funny and actually the smartest possible answer.
Luke's saber is green because he list his lightsabre on bespin previously so he decided to use a forbidden way to summon a kyber crystal
Great, now do the Prequels
It was first drafted as Return of the Jedi. The studio insisted on the change to Revenge, but Lucas decided to change it back.
#59: Aren't the 3 names mentioned the words for the Necronomicon in Army of Darkness?
That last made the Government just a little bit more awesome.
I hope we get to see all the thrown out shots from #71 some day.
the response to building a real death star is awesome
clatu verata nictu is from evil dead too, before he takes the necronomicon. they mustv stole it from day the earth stood still too. :) awesome!
Let's all take a moment to not rank the Star Wars movies, and just enjoy the fact that they all have something good about them.
Except Episode 2. Fuck that movie.
+Secret Steve and 1 Oh fuck it All the prequels sucked
13:25 "Nikto" is not the name of the character; It's that character's SPECIES.
Except that the species of the pictured thugs is Weequay: so named for Melville's Queequeg. Another species of Jabba's thugs are called Nikto as well, and another are called Klatooinians, and yet another are called Baradans.

Jabba the Hutt has in a new hope
you got number 7 wrong, the original title was Return of the Jedi, then he told Lucas Return was a weak title, so he changed it to Revenge, only later to figure that Jedi aren't suppose to take revenge, so he changed it back to return
Number 67, the reason the lightsaber was green and not blue is because they were afraid the blue lightaber wouldnt be recognized in front of a blue sky on tatooine, so, they made it green
There was another Wilhelm Scream When the Forest Trooper Crashes the Speeder into a Tree.
Where’s Crix Madine? The actor, Dermot Crowley, walked on set to film the mission briefing sequence only to be told that Kenner, the toy company who owned the rights to the Star Wars action figures, made Madine’s figure have a beard. The makeup team has to stick a fake beard to his face in order to fix the “error”. Also Crowley filmed all of Ackbar’s lines as Madine just in case the puppet for Ackbar did not turn out as planned
Goddamn, there was A LOT of people that just got angry, got spiteful and walked off...yikes
For 80, doesn't Ben say Anakin in number 4?
0:03 That's a modern opinion (and not universal) back in the day many people thought Return of the Jedi was the best movie in the 80's
making expository dialogue in front of a greenscreen sums up the prequels very well.
Lucas also changed the colour of Luke's light saber because it did not contrast well with the blue sky in the background and it couldn't be seen.
13:55
I bet Jabba liked that
what app or site do u use for ur videos ? I'm a big fan and im trying to make these like u :) pls reply
Lol at White House response to Death Star petition! :)
I saw this on theaters when it came out. When one of the Ewoks said "chocha" my Puerto Rican friends started laughing. Apparently that word refers to a certain female body part in Spanish slang.
Spielberg and Lucas met at UCLA. Not lifelong friends.
Wasn't the resignation from the director's guild about lack of opening credits.
They also used blue harvest to keep filming costs down if people knew it was as big as Star Wars they would've demanded more money for filming so they used blue harvest
Fact 81: Even if it is true to that Vader didn't Force Choke anyone in the movie there was going to be a scene with Vader going to the Emperor, Moff Jejjerod (the guy who Vader complains to that the Construction of Death Star II was falling behind and when he tells him that the Emeror was going to come, the Moff promised Vader that the crew would double their efforts) and two Imperial Royal Guards deny him access to the elevator which leaded up to the throne room but then Vader Force Chokes Jejjerod to which he gives Vader access. This was cut from the film, most likely of time issues and wasn't necessary for the story.
do 107 facts about star wars episode 1 the phantom menace then episode 2 then episode 3 then episode 7
Spoilers ahead.
Ford: "Can Solo please die?"
Lucas: "no"
Ford: "Can Solo please die?"
J.J Abrams: "k"
While it's cool to think that Luke could've been the new Darth Vader, another concept that I thought would be brilliant was if Luke puts on the helmet, and says something like 'No, this isn't right'. Anyone agrees with me on this?
It also wouldn't ruin the storyline of the new trilogy
Nr 53 is incorrect.. Jabba had hist 1st appearance in "A new hope" when he talks with Han Solo near the Millenium Falcon
Not in the theatrical release, that was only in the special edition, these facts are based on the originals
It was Revenge, then Lucas said Jedi don't get revenge, so said Return. And Kadsan said Return was the weak title. But Lucas stuck with Return.
