Someone not knowing Mark Hamill for Star Wars but his voice work and being absolutely SHOOK at the revelation is so entirely wholesome
Oh yeah, when Mark read for the Joker he was sure he wouldn't be chosen because 'They won't want to cast Luke Skywalker as a psychotic bad guy"
@@BrendanKOD and then I’m sure they loved his work as the joker and then they cast him as ozai for an even eviler…??? Villain 😂✨ he’s been so many voices I mean wow
@@captainteeko4579 Hey, it's like the writer who wrote The Exorcist(I forget the name). He originally had trouble pitching his idea because he was known for his lighthearted comedies, then after The Exorcist was a huge success, no one wanted to have "The guy who wrote the exorcist" writing the sort of lighthearted comedies he'd been known for before.
Hearing him as one of the best and creepiest joker laughs from playing the hero of generations...He's literally been on both sides--Light and Dark.
An hour into the movie: “Wait, is that MARK HAMILL??!!” 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Well now you understand why the channel is named in such a way
It says a lot about how talented Mark Hamill is that he's transcended Luke Skywalker.
@AuspexAO he's as well known as the voice of the Joker as he was as Luke Skywalker, if not moreso.
Gee, wonder where they first saw Mark Hamill ? Hmmmmmm
4:53
“R2 is the main character.”
He has no idea just how right he is.
Swear to god though R2 has seen more battle and action than probably anyone in the galaxy bro has been everywhere 😂
@@rangerghost2474 by the sequels hes around 80 years old
R2 seen the start, the end, the best and the worst through out the entire history lmao
When you look at R2s involvement and all the stuff he knows that went down from the prequels with Anakin and all the stupid shit that C3PO says, if they gave R2 arms he'd be bitch slapping him.
One of my favorite head canons was the Star Wars movies were recorded and narrated by R2 and 3PO and we’re watching a recap based off their recollection
No no, Han DID shoot first in the original. In the special edition released in the 90s they changed it so that Greedo shot first because they thought somehow it was dishonorable for Han to shoot first.
The fans did NOT appreciate this, and it has been a controversial topic since. Most fans will say "Han shot first!"
I still don't understand the complaint. It was in self defense.
@@hunterackerman1697 The scene was actually altered 5 different times.
Originally Han shot before Greedo could respond. This was to establish Han as more of a morally grey, no nonsense type character. Lucas thought later that it made Han look like a bad guy, so he had the scene re-edited to have Greedo fire first, miss, and have Han fire in self defense. Fans didn't like this because they felt like it was a bit of a character assassination of Han.
The 3rd edit kept Greedo firing first but made him slower at pulling the trigger... which honestly makes Han look less skilled when you see the edit because Greedo pulls his blaster like a snail.
The 4th edit made it so Han and Greedo shot _at the same time,_ which is admittedly somewhat better.
The 5th and most recent edit gives Greedo an extra line of dialogue, "Maclunkey," before he fires his blaster. But it's still timed to have them both shoot at the same time.
IMO, I like the act of Han firing first in the original cut, but I actually prefer some of the later edits that change the exchange of fire into a wider shot rather than a closeup on Greedo getting blasted as it was originally. The 4th edit is probably my favorite presentation overall, but it could be made better if they still kept Han as the one who fires first.
original Star Wars fans are the most cringe people on the planet. I say this as a fan but they’re unbearable at times crying about everything
@@Limebradley That's not really just a Star Wars thing. Take any beloved character introduction, like Doc Brown in Back To The Future, Jack Sparrow in Pirates or Hannibal Lecter in Silence Of The Lambs.
The fans of any of those movies would be pissed if in the only official HD versions, their intro was changed to cut out an interesting part of their character.
@@tortoiseoflegends4466 it wasn’t the introduction though we’d already seen him have a conversation with ob1 and Luke at that point so that’s a stupid statement tbh
"Have you guys watched that clone wars show?"
"No"
Oh you have no idea the amount of comments requesting you to watch it that you've set off
and Rebels too please!
I wouldn't recommend Clone Wars to most reactors but given how much these guys are into shows like Ben 10 and Teen Titans, it'd be right up their alley.
@@tortoiseoflegends4466exactly! since this is such an animation focused channel its perfect
screw it, they should react to all the series's! :D after the movies ofc
Also the bad batch!
Fun fact, Mark Hamill originally auditioned for Star Wars on the advice of his friend and roommate Robert Englund. Who went on to play Freddy Krueger.
No way
@@complex2liveyep. Englund auditioned for Han Solo. He didn’t get it but told Hamill about the audition and said he’d be good for the Luke character.
Before Mark Hamil got the role of Luke Skywalker. That guy from the movie Carrie 1978 who plays Tommy. He originally auditioned the role for Luke. Crazy or not he was damn good being Luke which is insane. But he didn't get it which is good cuz I prefer Mark Hamil as Luke mostly.
@@johnnymoreno5065that’s really cool. Carrie had a great cast in retrospect.
Yes, and until he got the complete script, he did not realize that he would be playing the central character of the saga. He thought he was auditioning for just a supporting role.
At last, Ruff's finally going to get the references! I'm so happy that he finally gets to see this groundbreaking masterpiece. May the 4th be with you!
Boo this man off stage!
Booo!
@@lokimiguel2452look you dont have to like it but to say it's not groundbreaking is stupid. This movie literally changed sci fi, heck films in general. Im not saying you have to like it, I'm saying atleast understand why people say its groundbreaking
Keep telling that to yourself, your opinion is like an ant to a mountain of those who love this movie
@@lokimiguel2452 you misunderstand, yes the movie is basically just a fantasy adventure but in space. Point is there it's influence can't be denied, once again, this is not about opinion
@8:41 The CGI was added in the 90s, and then touched up further when the blu-ray and later streaming services came about.
yeah ... I gotta say Im a bit bummed that Boom didnt make sure they got the non CG version. In this one its not that much of an issue but Im sure we can all agree on NOT wanting to see the Jabbas Palace musical interlude? Or just me?
They’re trolling us, right? They have to know it was added later. 😬
@@Daelyas Totally agree, I actually hate the added cgi characters. I can understand using things like doing touch ups on scenic shots in backgrounds or cleaning up the image for the Blu Ray but I've never liked the cgi characters they added. I literally tracked down the last DVD's released before they changed everything. The VHS set I owned had the original theatrical version where Han Shot Greedo First. It makes me really sad the original theatrical version isn't on new blu ray versions or on streaming services, I'd like the choice for real.
@@Daelyas Is there even an (easy) way to get the older versions?
@@stingerbrg that I cannot say, I got them on VHS - already a changed version in itself, but only the 3rd "enhanced" edition. Why they cant stop fiddling with this movie every 5 years or so is beyond me. Its not a video game you have to patch
(17:44): “Have you guys watched The Clone Wars?”
“No”
I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of viewers suddenly cried out in terror…
Tartakovsky > filoni
@@cpob2013 Truth - 2003 Clone Wars was soooo good.
Funny story, canonically, the genre of the music played in the cantina is called Jizz. Y’know. ‘Cause it’s jazz in space. Jizz.
No, the band was called The Jizz Wailers. No joke.

The amount of lore in Star Wars that’s come out of this one fucking line is actually kind of insane. 😂
It really is when you think about it lol
And Dune.
So much lore from these little throw away lines. Like Luke asking Ben "You fought in the clone wars?" basically set the stage for the entire prequel story.
@@Nonamearisto This was after Dune (the first 3 books anyway) was written, Star Wars draws a lot of inspiration from Dune.
@@Nonamearisto Bro Dune is 12 years older than Star Wars
It’s always so badass watching Vader prove to the nonbelievers that The Force is real by choking somebody with it
"You are talking a lot of shit for someone in choking distance, Commander."
Even if after all the retcons, it makes absolutely no sense for anyone to be talking to Vader like that. 😂
The best part is that any distance is "choking distance" as long as he can see you.
@@Longshanks1690 I mean even in current Canon Jedi have been super rare in the Galaxy. The most people have probably heard about Jedi is they became traitors and were destroyed (if the Imperial Propaganda even let that information get out) and before that they were just a weird cult. It'd be like being in a high-level military briefing and hearing a scientologist go "Your nukes may be powerful but they're no match for the powers in the universe."
@@JackToeRip The Inquisitorius and Vader’s countless feats would have already built him a reputation and made Force wielding abilities something they were very much aware of.
It is laughable that the guy who does the things Vader does in the Vader comics gets snarked at by this pipsqueak like he’s never heard of what Vader can do before.
Fun fact: Star Wars was one of the first 25 films selected for preservation to the National Film Registry in 1989. Its soundtrack was also preserved in the National Recording Registry in 2004.
So THATS where we can get the actual unaltered versions! NIce!
Fun fact Lucas didn't feel this film was done. So he didn't submit it until the late 90's after he'd remastered it.
It was rejected because he'd removed the scenes it was selected for.
As Harrison Ford once told George Lucas, "Hey George, you can write this shit, you can't say it."
@@lokimiguel2452 What the hell are you talking about? George Lucas wrote and directed the original Star Wars movie. He didn't write or direct Empire
@@samfisher6606 No, he went back in time and create star wars stealing it from a guy that would write it this year
@@Qoobon_Nice reference
And despite it, Han delivered his explanation of lightspeed travel _perfectly._
@@samfisher6606 george wrote all first 6 star wars but only directed IV, I, II, and III
39:48 Mark Hamill was Skips, the Joker in BTAS and the Arkham games, Prince Zuko's dad Firelord Ozai among many other things. He's a really prolific voice actor who pops up where you least expect it.
Hamill also voiced Adrian Ripburger, the villain in the Lucasarts adventure game Full Throttle, and his voice acting was only overshadowed by the main character's actor, Roy Conrad.
He also guest starred as himself playing "Cock-Knocker" in "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back".
Fun fact about this film: Darth Vader's iconic theme doesn't appear in this film ONCE. It appears for the first time in Empire Strikes Back, and was written to represent how their superweapon's destruction couldn't dent them.
The empire DOES get a smaller motif in this film though, which I've headcanoned as "The Stormtrooper theme" (Imperial Attack)
Dude, there is so much trivia in the music Alone for these original films! There’s like a Ton of cut music for Empire that’s still left in the soundtrack!
Beru: "He has too much of his father in him."
Owen: "That's what I'm afraid of."
Ruff: "What the fuck do y'all know??"
Does...does he not know? Decades of internet culture and has this man avoided the most famous movie twist of all time?
I hope not.
@@sassymess7111 No lie. My girlfriend is one of those people. Still doesn't know Darth Vader's true identity.
27:25 - "Why does everybody got a problem with droids in this world."
Oh boy.
Roger Roger
side note: the Howling sound made my Old Ben is referred to the Kryat dragon, which is a fearsome creature the tusken Raiders all fear. it was featured in The Madalorian and oh boy does it highlight why they flipped their shit and ran
“Here’s where the fun begins!!”
I was literally going to comment this ya beat me to it lol
@@rpgrage7711 Had to use Han Solo’s version because he said it first.
@@MediaLoverChris02 oh I was a bit confused there for a sec
@@MediaLoverChris02 He *is* famous for doing things first, after all.
25:30
In the theatrical, only Han shot. Greedo didn't even get a chance to fire off a shot. They later changed it to have Greedo shoot to make Han look less bad.
It genuinely hurts me how butchered that explanation was for a newbie. 😭
I mean, he was already shooting in self defense.
The issue with it really is the original take shows everything we need to know about han
He is a no nonsense practical person who makes his own luck and chance
Where's the edit takes away that grey roguish charm
It's a little thing but it effects the characterization and shows why when Lucas had full reign in the prequels, the characters were some of the weakest written cut outs imaginable
@@mckenzie.latham91 yeah, if only George had made the prequels the way he did Empire Strikes Back - with far more delegating (especially the directing)
@Rhodair And writing, Larence Kasdan bascially gave usbthe actual workable script
I think the issue with the preqiels was lack of collaboration
Thenpriginal trilogy was a collaborative effort between all departmens and heads
Who helped shape the films.
The prequels are all the dictator of George alone who barely gets out of his director chair and there is next to nothing but green and blue screens in a sterile studio
Practical and animatrpnics all bit zero and just CGI shoved into everythimg
Where the focus is on how much digital fakeness you can push into a scene at a time
Instead of focus on plot, character or a cohesive story.
I don't think the sequel trilogy was able to get as good a story as they could have
But I did feel they focused more on character and theme then the prequels ever did.
13:00 When that " A new hope " theme started playing and Luke looked at the double suns, man, it's just make you scream CINEMA
Binary Sunset is one of my favorite tracks from all of star wars
I literally yelled "HOLY SH@$" when I got this notification.
you have gay people as your profile
Same, this was very unexpected
May the 4th be with you my friends always
May the 4th be with you.
@@TheMaskGamer2007May the 4th be with you
And also with you. Let us pray.
Fun Fact.. the 501st supposedly got called upon by Disney, they wanted an army of Storm Troopers in the Mandalorian but would of cost too much to make all that armour, and they could of done CGI or duplicates, but the director wanted realism.. they contacted the 501 who is already a bunch of nerds (amazing) with their own realistic storm trooper armour and they showed up to set
Second fun fact.. George Lucas had in his contract that he gets the revenue and exclusive rights to Star Wars toys in exchange for a reduced percentage of revenue from the films.. the studio laughed at him because toys weren't something that was making money.. after this hit, Star wars was the must have for about 10 years and the studio lost out on all that sweet sweet toy money.. since then all studios retain the rights to any toy sales
Yeah the 501st and other cosplay groups are approved by Disney and regularly called to fill in as extras in movies and shows! The Mandalorian show also has some Mandalorians played by cosplayers in their own armor!
Ruff realizing the toy sabers react to impact was so heartwarming.
The amount of joy I feel watching Ruff experience it all is amazing.
3:24 I can’t imagine how cool it must be for someone who knows about star wars from pop culture, to see Darth Vader’s big entrance from the OG film. You know he’s a big bad villain, one of the most iconic of all time, and to actually see him arrive minutes into the film is unexpected
Its like a “OH GOD ITS HIM! HE’S HERE?”
The Original Trilogy is heavily inspired by existing samurai movies and westerns (which were also heavily based on each other, funnily enough). You can see a lot of direct references to the old Kurosaws movies if you know what to look for. Even Vader's armour is based on Samurai armour
"I can't wait for you to see how pretty Alderaan is" that deadpan delivery was perfect, I almost tore my diaphragm from laughing 🤣 I don't know if you all are familiar with "Phineas and Ferb" but if you are, you need to watch the Star Wars special. You only need to see A New Hope for context as far as I remember and it is amazing!
Same!
2:32. “The fans love these but literally hate everything else they’ve ever done”. The most accurate statement about Star Wars I’ve ever seen
The Prequels weren't as bad as people like to pretent, they had a lot of cool moments, lots of cool music, and the fights were amazing. The Sequels are trash, we all agree on that.
@@Lupinemancer87 another accurate statement right there
lies, the fans loved the clones wars.
Adding on to what was said before, the Prequels also brought about the Golden Age of Star Wars with its iconic games, comics, and toy lines.
Those games are still considered peak to this day by all the fans!
@@Lupinemancer87 The sequels are great ngl
Ruff's reaction for this movie is priceless! The awe on his face and in his voice shows how incredible this film really is.
@@lokimiguel2452 You’re not edgy. Stop trying to be different.
@@lokimiguel2452 Trust me, my favorite Star Wars movie is THE LAST JEDI.
I’ve had my share of not going with the majority.
A New Hope is simply a masterpiece.
@@MediaLoverChris02 Agreed! Even when there were just 6 films "A New Hope" was and still is the very essence of Star Wars.
@@MediaLoverChris02 question, how much hate have you gotten for that opinion? not trying to be rude, just curious
Y’all need to watch Clone Wars (once you’ve seen the prequels of course). It’s genuinely some of the most devastating storytelling I’ve seen
This is the special edition, hence the shockingly good cgi. George went over it when there was better cgi
The special edition CGI doesn’t hold up but the practical effects do.
Very little of the special edition additions are good and they take away from the original
Greedo shooting first
CGI Jabba and them having the exact same conversation we heard between greedo and han
The Dubbing lines in return of the Jedi
Etc.
Eughhh,
@@mckenzie.latham91 greedo shoots first so Han looks better by comparison
@@cacklebabygg6156 no he doesn’t, Greedo was going to kill him all along anyway, but the way Han handled it his way said a lot about his character
having him shoot second showed how little Lucas actually understood the character, which suggests to me most of Hans character was developed by others suggestions that Lucas took down
then when Lawrence Kasdan took over from him in the next two films to basically rewrite his story into an actual decent screenplay that worked (almost all we know of star wars was because of Lawrence Kasden actually making lucas script work)
you could see how Han was SUPPOSED to be written.
When you see how Kasden wrote Yoda explaining the force in Empire strikes back,
then see phantom menace where Lucas had al creative control, and see him retcon everything in empire with Medichlorians, which totally kills everything that makes the force the force,
shows you exactly who actually made star wars star wars and it was never lucas.
@@mckenzie.latham91 midiclorians don't break any Canon, it's just a more specific sciency explanation
Oh my heart, they (Ruff, especially) finally reacting to Star Wars...
We're finally here Billy! Time for a 9 movie Journey, then 2 spinoff movies, and Clone wars and Rebels as well as several live action series. (don't listen to the haters, just make up your own minds about the movies like y'all normally do.) 💜
You guy should watch the animated shows - Clone Wars, Bad Batch, Rebels...
tales of the Jedi, Tales of the Empire
31:32 "That's no moon...that's YO MAMA!" -Papa Palpatine
"YO MAMA IS SO FAT THAT JABBA THE HUT SAID DAMMMMMMMMM"

Skeevy Sheev
Id enjoy a reaction to the RC Star Wars stuff at some point. When Ruff is deep enough in to follow the jokes ofc
"YO MAMA IS SO FAT THAT JABBA THE HUT SAID DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMM"
-Luke Skywalker
I hope Pirates 5 is up soon, but good God, I'm looking forward to this very long journey with y'all! 💜
Watching this movie in the modern day, I have come to greatly appreciate how much the movie treats it's audience like they're smart. Characters are only introduced when they actually come into the story, which necessarily means that Luke, for all intents and purposes the main character, is only introduced 20 minutes in. We don't need any detailed backstories beyond what is related to the hear and now, but we get exactly what we need to know from the way the characters act. Note how there aren't any real exposition dumps beyond what would naturally occur in a conversation and the original scroll. I'm hard pressed to think of a lot of modern movies that can say the same
There's a story about filming Vader's first scene and Mark Hamill (being the young relatively inexperienced actor) said to Lucas "Shouldn't we have two of rebels say "That's Vader, he's the evil x, y, and z that did this this and this?". Lucas just responded "This guy is dressed in all black walking through dead bodies while ominous music plays. If people don't pick up that he's the bad guy, we've failed at our job." To which Mark thought "Oh, he's brilliant"
I would recommend once you guys watch the second movie of the prequel should watch the clone wars tv show series
It was a great show series especially growing up
Im only like three minutes into this video but i love the sleepover vibe so much. Star wars blankets and cut outs and sabers and some dudes goofing around.
I know where the name R2-D2 came from. When George Lucas was working on American Graffiti, someone asked for R2, D2, (reel 2, dialog 2). George liked the sound of that so he noted it down and found the perfect character for it.
It's not just the 501st. That's just the Empire based faction.
There's also the Rebel Legion and the Mandalorian Mercenaries and they work side by side for charities.
I like that Ruff complimented the CGI (even though it's not from back then).
It's a nice change of pace from the usual CGI-bashing Star Wars fans do.
It's the fact that they won't sell the original cut that ticks people off. Add all the shitty CG you want but let people watch the original if they want to. The fact they've never done so is so damn arrogant.
The CG stuff stick out like a sore thumb. And the reactors don't even realize it. CG wasn't even a thing when it came out!
@@Renoistic they realised that by rotj
I absolutely love that you change the decorations to match what you're watching, thank you!!!
The music in Star Wars is what made me fall in love with the franchise. John Williams delivered a masterpiece every movie. (And if you decide to do the TV series.. Clone Wars, Rebels, etc.. Kevin Kiner also kills it with the soundtracks)
It's about time you guys finally watch Star Wars for the first time! I'm so happy that you guys are watching the original trilogy first.
So this actually isn't technically the original. This is one of the special editions. In about the 90s they went back and remastered it from the original film reels. And then I think in 2005 George went back again and added lots of little details that he wasn't able to in 77. Like all of that CGI stuff wasn't in the original.
Also, great Star Wars games are Jedi: Fallen Order, Jedi: Survivor, and Star Wars Battlefront 2
They also edited scenes and redubbed lines
Which have all been universally condemned as unneeded
For example greedo shooting first
The dubbed lines in return if the Jedi
Horrendous CGI of random animals and stuff that has no purpose but to clutter up the screen...
The glow of the lightsaber fight between vader and Obi-wan alone show that. The bit of Biggs enthusiasm meeting Luke was great stuff they shouldn´t have cut. Han Solo interaction with Jabba this early on was fun too. Graphic deaths Owen and Beru more impact. Overall of the trilogy the New Hope is far and wide the best in remastered form.
I'm baffled that the reactors think the CG is from 77. What are they smoking.
@@embran8486Couldn't disagree more. Fine, touching up mistakes and adding some pretty skyboxes is fine. But the rest of the changes detract from the movie, especially the CG stuff that stick out like a sore thumb.
No, I don't believe this. There's no way that Ruff of all people hasn't --
"They're not gonna read it out loud?"
Okay, carry on.
He doesn’t even know about the reveal in ESB very clearly, he’s gonna be the first guy since the 80s to have an actual reaction to it. 😂
I am just flabbergasted that he didn't know Mark was LUKE SKYWALKER.
Nah the “she already smooching him” and then the smile Boom 😂😂😂
Women's emotional labor, is Leia comforting Luke after he lost an old man he had just met, while she has lost her entire home world and all the people she ever loved growing up. She is the most badass Disney Princess ever!
23:22 Fun fact (paraphrased): The filmmakers could only afford to have a small handful of puppets be made for this scene, but the company they commissioned loved the work so much, they freely made so many more than was ordered.
Seeing ruff gradually go through every phase of starwars love was wholesome. The mind blown face with mark hammil had me laughin!
Thanks guys! May the 4th be with you!
38:34 Wow, just the mental image of a Stormtrooper depressingly flushing his beloved pet after Tarkin or Vader said "I'm sorry, we can't keep it" is great😂
Ruff, did anyone clarify that the CGI animations were added in the Special Edition DVDs during the 1990s? The CGI was not in the original film.
23:10 wanted to drop this little fun fact; After the Clone Wars, where the Seperatists (the "bad guys") battled against the Republic (now the Empire), they had HOARDS of battel droids to fight for them. They were programed to be relentless and merciless. So in the early days of the Empire and even during the New Republic, droids were basically considered even less than second class citizens, despite their advanced programing and usefulness. The carnage the droids brought during the Clone Wars just remained too fresh in the minds of people, making them untrustworthy in their eyes, hence the "racist" remarks to the droids in this scene. Funny enough, there were a few attempted droid rebellions, but most were either isolated or were eliminated before they could spread.
The lore is that the barkeeper's parents were killed by battle droids, that's why he doesn't want them in his cantina
25:35 in the original it's actually just, Han Shot. Cause han just shoots Greedo before he can do anything
"We should really bring back capes."
Edna Mode: "NO CAPES!"
😂
Some of the CGI was added later, specifically animals/mounts, and jabba the hut. I want to say they were added in the mid 90s
1997, yes.
The Jabba scene, in particular, was actually a deleted scene which wasn't in the original theatrical cut. It featured an actor standing in for Jabba, probably because Jabba's design wasn't fully conceptualized yet. The scene never made the original cut. However by 1997, with all 3 original movies released and Jabba having his final design already featured in Return of the Jedi, they went back and remastered the deleted scene, superimposing a rough CGI version of Jabba over the actor and including it in the 1997 special edition release.
They later went on to re-edit it again and replace it with better CGI in later releases.
In fact, there is even a fan edited version that completely changes Jabba into a Hologram, which honestly makes the most sense, imo.
Fun Fact: When Mark Hamill was acting like he was being strangled by the garbage monster, he went so hard that he actually popped a blood vessel in his eye. When they went on to shoot the Throne Scene at the end right after they had to get creative with the angles for his shots to avoid showing his bright red eye.
**sniff sniff** i smell clone wars reactions in the future :D may the 4th be with ya'll!
The line “I find your lack of faith disturbing” is such a cool line that Ben 10 used it in the season 4 episode negative 10 part 1
You should definitely watch Clone Wars after the peequels
With every new channel reacting to Star Wars, A New Hope arises: The hope that they like the prequels and watch The Clone Wars.
The R5 droid unit intentionly blew his motivator so R2 and C3P0 wouldn't be seperated, after R2 told him the Rebellion needed him. R5 escaped the sandcrawler stormtrooper attack and joined the Rebellion
And became a character in his own right in Mandalorian.
"We havent watched Clone Wars"
FIX. THAT.
It's his first time seeing Star wars. That's that's so sweet😂😂😂😂😂😂
Fun fact, George Lucas got full merchandising rights for Star Wars instead of a higher salary, and kept the sequel rights because Fox thought it was going to flop
The Jabba scene wasn't in all the VHS tapes actually. Later a special edition of the VHS tapes was released that included the deleted scenes.
And the reason it was cut in the original (Lucas had no control over the cut and editing, as it was his ex wife that did it)
Was because the entire conversation is just a repeat of everything that was said between greedo and han
But If George wanted to have the CGI scene in there so it went in later.
@@mckenzie.latham91Not quite true. They filmed it with the intention to add a stop motion Jabba onto the scene. Upon realizing they lack to the budget, they adjusted the Greedo dialogue to get across all the information that the Jabba would have.
@@jordancooney6817and yet then they Kept both scenes despite the one making the other redundant
Which they did because Lucas wanted his CGI scene put in there.
@@mckenzie.latham91 I know. It's pretty pointless.
@@jordancooney6817 Only good (or more accuratley fun) thing about it is Boba Fett looking at the camera
For multiplayer games, the Battlefront series is famous. For single-player, I am a huge fan of Jedi: Fallen Order, a souls-like with some really cool exploration elements.
So the whole thing about "Han shot first" is that in the theatrical release Han Shot and Greedo didn't shoot.. later they remade it so Greedo shot and missed...
So fans say "Han shot first" or "Han shot PERIOD" since there was no second shot..
Something to consider is that, prior to Princess Leia - and Ellen Ripley from "Alien" - women's roles in sci-fi movies mostly consisted of standing around in a tinfoil miniskirt and screaming while the chisel-jawed male lead fistfought with rubber bug-eyed aliens.
Back in 1977, the beautiful princess to be rescued rolling her eyes at her lovable idiot rescuers, snatching the gun and leading the charge herself was *huge.* I cannot overstate what a moment that was in the history of pop culture.
Now, generations later, a group of young men watching it are able to just nod and go "yeah, if she's involved with the Rebellion, it would make sense that she'd know how to fight." It's one of those moments that makes me hopeful that things really can change for the better.
what more change could you possibly want?
So, lore tidbit about why everyone's racist towards droids:
It's been about twenty or thirty years since the Clone Wars, during which one of the belligerents was the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The CIS primarily used armies of battle droids to fight this war, and planets of the Outer Rim (like Tattooine), saw horrific destruction and terror wrought at the hands of droid armies.
So anyone old enough to remember the clone wars is going to have some very bad memories related to droids. Hence, why they're not wanted in a bar.
Hell, it wouldn't surprise me if the sight of a droid triggers ptsd in some people.
26:04 😍 501st legion is a very wide non profit organization
(Super happy you know and are telling others about it) they focus on the "dark side" movie accurate costumes. All costumes are hand made ❤
In my area there is a separate group for the rebel costumes, but they are not as well known. Most of the rebel members are also 501st members or former members
One day I hope to see a Battle Droid division
"we've all got a chicken-duck-woman-thing waiting for us" Bad Lip Reading has a HILARIOUS video for this movie, y'all have to watch it omfg
The way they got all the sounds is kinda crazy. The lightsaber hum was a malfunctioning projector, Darth Vader breathing was scuba gear, Chewbacca was many different types of wild animals; the TIE fighter is really cool, they took recordings of elephants and cars driving on wet asphalt and combined them.
54:51
What?
You didn't notice that when they departed from the Death Star?
I guess you guys were too busy talking over it so you didn't notice.😉
Yeah. At that scene in particular, they're talking about final fantasy 7, and turn away as the vader shot flashes.
25:25 - You have it reversed. In the theatrical 1977 version, Han shot first. Then in 1997, they changed it to Greedo shooting first, to make Han seem more like a good guy.
8:35"Even the CGI from them doesn't look that bad" CGI did not exist in 1977. These shots are from the rerelease of Star Wars in 1997 The Special Editions.
"What does a princess even mean in space?"
I actually love how unclear that was in the film.... the added lote is this....
She's the daughter of the leader of Alderaan...so, princess... the leader of Alderaan, Bail Organa (you'll meet him in the prequels and in Rogue One, which is more like a Prologue for THIS film) is also Alderaan's representative in the Galactic Senate (Tarkin mentioned the Emperor dissolving the Imperial Senate...same thing, became Imperial after the Emperor declared himself the Emperor... the bit about the Emperor taking marshal law type power is in the prologue of the book which was based off the same script and released about the same time as the film.)
So if worlds in Star Wars are like nations on Earth... then princesses would be royalty of those worlds, IF royalty exists in that world's sovereign government.
Also, Senators in Star Wars is mote like ambassadors in the United Nations... the Galactic Republic (and then the Galactic Empire) being like the United Nations.
So why is the Empire evil? Imagine if the Chairman of the United Nations declared himself Emperor and then turned the entire world into a police state under his military's rule... and his chief general was a magic wielding badass.
No, R2 is not "the negotiator" of Star Wars. 💜

“You don’t believe in the Force, do you?”
“No, I don’t believe in Biggs.”
DAMN 🤣🤣🤣
I will correct you Boom! lol In the original cut Han shoots first, in the 90s when George re-edited them for the Special Editions and all future versions it's edited so that Greedo shot first because they wanted Han to be a hero and they felt him killing him before Greedo even gets a shot off was too villainous... but the whole point of him is right now he is a shady murky char who eventually will be redeemed.
George Lucus haz bizzare priorities
Omg thats means i hope u guys watch the clone wars when u guys complete the movies
Biggs definitely raised some death flags. Like a soldier who’s tour is almost done and gets to go home to his wife.
I am so happy you're checking out star wars. If you guys enjoy the movies I recommend checking the clone wars it's really really good
Han: “Jabba, you’re a wonderful human being.”
Jabba: “I’m not a human being.”
Han: “exactly.”
He actually was originally going to be a human.
I think the Tie Fighters (empire fighter planes) has wings because they are for space flight and atmosphere flight too.

Play KOTOR. It's everything that the sequel trilogy should have been
"This is where the fun begins"
lego star wars the complete saga is my favourite star wars lego game would love to see you all play it once you watch all the prequels and original trilogy
I like that they like the CGI that was added decades after the film came out, let’s let them keep there happiness 😂😂
It is kind of cute
Hopefully, we won't have to wait a year for them to watch the best Star Wars movie.
Highly recommend watching the Star Wars episode of Phineas and Ferb. Dan Povenmire (series co-creator and VA for Doof) originally pitched it as a joke with a pic of Doof as Darth Vader, something he made once Disney acquired Lucasfilms. They decided to make it a real one hour special, and it actually adds context to stuff in “A New Hope” that happens off-screen and makes each transition to each scene feel a lot more connected.
Never seen this get recommended to a reactor doing sw but it's a good idea lol haven't seen it in years but I remember it being good
In the original 1977 release Han shot first. Which is a great decision because it shows everything you need to know about him in one scene. He's not to be played with. He will kill you if he feels threatened. This also makes the audience believe he actually left at the end of the movie, making his return and arc much more interesting.
On the new releases with all the CGI upgrades they made Greedo shoot first. Which kinda ruins the whole point of that scene, which was to build the character like I said above. But as George Lucas grew older I guess he thought making the "good guy" Han shoot first would make him look bad or whatever. Which is stupid.
Just like inserting the scene of Jabba The CGI Hutt was unnecessary. The fact we only hear about Jabba until EP VI, is powerful enough to makes us wonder who is this person that is pissed with Han. Making that scene where Han even steps on Jabba like he didn't send a guy to kill him just a few minutes ago, just made Jabba look like a wimp.
George Lucus was the og Vivziepop; refusing to leave any idea on the cutting board.
It’s finally time for the long road of Star Wars, the movies 1-6 because 7-9 don’t exist, the amazing animated shows and some ok tv shows and the mandalorian
7-9 exist and they’re better than 1-3
