- In part one of our coverage for the finished Empire Strikes Back film we look at the entire 1st act and its deleted scenes as well as insights from Leigh Brackett's first draft.
For the making of this film and the debate as to when Darth became Luke's father, click here: • Creating a narrative: ...

I was born in 1970. He just recapped my life from 1977-1983.
Well, we will be covering 1983 with Return of the Jedi after Alien 3 and 1968's Planet of the Apes. Hope to rekindle more memories with you then. :)
24:36 Right?!? Remember when the Empire was scary? Not the butt of your mamma jokes
I watched Empire again the other day, man what a great movie. Every single shot, line of dialogue, acting, situational music etc was perfect. I'd forgotten just how good it is. So much better than modern Disney Star Wars, can't even compare the two. The fight between Luke and Vader isn't just a fight, it tells a story, you can break it down beat by beat, the emotions of the actors comes through, perfect.
When Darth appears out of knowwhere on cloud city, he's toying with Luke, like a cat playing with a mouse.
Vaders body language is amazing, love how he switches his weight from one foot to the other.
I never got an AT-AT or the Millennium Falcon. Those were rich kid's toys.
I got both, but we were not rich.
Unfortunately my Grandad sat on my Falcon snapping off the legs.
haha!!! the warning sticker on the door blocking a room full of wampas! i love it.
OMG!!! OMG!!! OMG!!! So Mark Hamill can relate to... "The mirror! THE MIRROR!!!! Ha! Ha! HA HA HA HA HA..."
Unlike the Disney garbage, merchandising for The Empire Strikes Back actually sold because it was such a fantastic movie.
‘Wallow in self pity’ could very well mean indulge in prescription pain medication. From personal experience.
14:56 - You may want to state to which version you mean - the 1997 theatrical, the 2004 DVD or the 2011 Blu-ray.
It's crazy how they ruined romance in The Sequels. Similar confusion as in the OT, but at least you had a decent Leia-Solo thing in the end. The Sequels hinted at Finn in TFA, but nothing came out of it.
23:37 - Not to mention his name, which sounded like 'dark father'
I always loved The Empire Strikes Back. The Empire Strikes Back is my second favorite Star Wars film along with Star Wars 1977, it was a great Star Wars film that had brilliant direction by Irvin Kershner, and The Empire Strikes Back was the sci-fi film that came out after Alien, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, and Disney's The Black Hole in May 1980. The Empire Strikes Back had an awesome cliffhanger ending and I also love Alien, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, and The Black Hole from 1979. Alien by Ridley is one of my absolute favorite films, Star Trek: The Motion Picture was a very good Star Trek film, and The Black Hole is a very underappreciated and excellent sci-fi Disney film.
We will be doing The Black Hole and Star Trek: The Motion Pictures someday. The question is when? Hope to see you there when we do.
This is a great retrospective and I am loving the deleted scenes.
The inconclusive ending still made me watch this movie repeatedly!
This was one of the best cliffhangers in film history. It was awesome.
I've been to that cinema on Secor and Monroe! I think I watched Jurassic Park there. Man alive, I'm old. :(
Well, that makes this a small world because I saw Jurassic Park there too, twice on the screen that faced the back parking lot! Who knows we might have seen each other there and never knew it.
I always learn something here. Great video.
Thanks.
Great channel mate. Can't wait for the G2 vid
Glad to have you here Craiglittle.
10:41 - This finger-pointing will be seen in several more scenes. I wonder who thought of it
Love your series!
In the Nintendo 64 game Shadows of the Empire, i remember a room with several wampas behind a closed door on the Hoth rebel base.
Yes, this was put in there as an easter egg for those who knew about this scene.
@@RepresentThis little Dittm didn't know, thank you for telling me all these interesting facts about these old films
@@dittm3r Ask away or comment anytime. Love spending time talking about stuff like this. After all I'm a nerd. :)
9:47 - Carrie Fisher also re-wrote several of her scenes. She deserves a credit
Thank u for all the research that u have done ,keep up the great work.
Excellent video! I hope that you are feeling better.
I feel much better, still have some coughing and voice issues but it gave me time to finish the script for Alien 3.
@@RepresentThis I hope that you discuss both cuts of the film.
@@israelvaldez26 I will, it will be my longest series of coverage. The making of segment will be 2 or 3 alone with full script coverage as well as some less talked about issues and drama behind the scenes.
Luke and Leia are Rey's real parents. Change my mind.
dude, when I was 8, me and two buddies from my neighborhood got together and figured out how to get and share most of the major Star Wars toys by each asking our parents for specific ones. I got the AT-AT and two TIE fighters, my friend Dave got all the stuff from Jabba's palace, and Clinton at the end of the block got Death Star related things along with a Millenium Falcon. We would pretend that the action figures would stop in the middle of fighting and realize they were gay for each other and we'd make rebels and troopers pile up in threesomes and end the civil war with massive orgies LOL. All little boys kind of have gay imaginations hahaha. Fun times though!
Playing with Star Wars figs in the 70's and 80's were the greatest. It's too bad it had to end.
