People don’t disintegrate when struck by a lightsaber. The lightsaber is just like a sword, it just slices through anything. What happened to Obi-Wan was something that only a handful of Jedi can do upon death; disappear into the netherworld of the Force.
Han put Luke in the Tuantuan to keep him warm while he set up the temporary shelter. They couldn't search at night because the temperature dropped and it was dark. Even in our world, cars won't run if it's too cold. The Death Star was just one space station. It wasn't the entire Empire. It would be like one aircraft carrier being destroyed in the US Navy or Pearl Harbor being destroyed at the beginning of WWII.
As Han was stuffing Luke inside the tauntaun, he said “This will keep you warm til I get the shelter up” and then we see him start building a shelter kept in a saddle bag. So they both spent the night in an emergency shelter.
These are called episodes because they are modeled after the movie serials from the 1930s and 40s, particularly Flash Gordon. Each week, in addition to the main feature, a theater would show a chapter of perhaps 15 minutes of a movie serial. Each would end with a cliffhanger. Also, The Emperor was mentioned by Governor Tarkin in the first movie. Actually, in the first film, it’s more like Governor Tarkin and Darth Vader were on equal terms.
Yes and no. The Empire is spread across the galaxy, but none of their weaponry rivaled that of the Death Star, as it was the only weapon capable of destroying entire planets. The bulk of the Imperial fleet is made up of Star Destroyers & TIE Fighters. There's a handful of Super Star Destroyers that act as command ships, but none of them are anywhere near a Death Star in firepower.
Sometimes R2 had an actor in it, other times it was a remote controlled robot. If it had 3 legs it was a robot, if it had 2 legs it had an actor inside.
I hope you picked it up during editing, but many of your questions were answered while you were asking the questions. You did a great job with GoT, and I know you're probably well ahead on these films, but remember that the dialog is just as important in these films as it was in Game of Thrones.
I was 13 Years old in 19777 when I saw Star Wars in the Movie Theatre. The Special Effects were ahead of its time. It was originally Just Called Star Wars because George Lucas did not know if he would be able to make more Star wars Movies, It was renumbered Episode IV when Episode V The Empire Strikes Back was released in 1980. George Lucas Started with the First Episode of his Middle Trilogy.
There is a Star Wars Movie called Rogue One so it was Rogue Two that found Luke and Han. Obi Wan Kenobi is a Force Ghost. That is why Luke can see him. There are actors inside of both R2 D2 and C3PO.
This movie series has a rich history. George Lucas was inspired to create a movie like the ones he had seen on television. He tried to get the rights to make a Flash Gordon film, but when he couldn’t, he took a suggestion to make his own film intellectual property. It’s been said Han Solo was partly based upon fellow filmmaker, Francis Ford Coppola. Chewbacca was inspired by his pet dog, Indiana, who would accompany him. He loved race cars. When creating the character of Indiana Jones for the film, Raiders of the Lost Ark, a year after this one, he named the character after his dog.
LUke was on Dagobah for MONTHS while Han & Leia were traveling to Bespin. without LIGHTSPEED, the trip from the asteroid to ANOTHER planetary system would TAKE months ( if not years) ( developing thier relationship getting closer no doubt) but lets say months so LUke was training with YODA for a few months before leaving to help han & leia the movie just makes it look like a couple days but in reality it took quite a while
Star Wars is actually based on kids’ Saturday matinee movie serials from the 1930s and borrows a lot of those tropes; quick expository dialogue, swashbuckling action, romance, simple plot lines, wipe transitions, grand orchestral scores, and text at the start to catch you up on what’s happening. This all would’ve seemed really retro even in the 1970s, when movies had trended toward gritty and cynical.
1. Han to Chewy, "Laugh it ups fuzzball"🤣 2. The scene in the cave is Luke seeing into his future if he were to turn to the dark side. 3. Do them in the original release. They were put that way for a reason. Jumping ahead ruins it for you and us. 4. IRL Ford and Fisher were having an affair. She was very young, and he was much older and married. She put it in her biography before she died. She got an ok from him to put it in there. 5. Hans', "I know" was ad lib because Ford thought it was what Solo would say, and required a new script to be written in the next movie. 6. Ford wanted Solo to die. 7. You will learn more about the emperor and Darth Vader in episodes I, II and III. 8. The next one wraps everything up and IMVHO is the best of the original VI Lucas episodes.
Vader tortured Han so Luke would know though the Force that his friend was in pain and potentially in mortal danger. This is his (Vader's) way of drawing Luke to him.
The Sith are the main antagonists of many works in the fictional universe of the Star Wars franchise. They are the antithesis and ancient enemies of the Jedi. "Darth" is a rank & title in Sith Order.
I was 16 Years old in 1980 when I saw Episode V The Empire Strikes Back. in the Movie Theatre. The Special Effects were ahead of its time. Everyone in the Movie Theatre was shocked and Gasped when Darth Vader Told Luke I am your Father. We were also surprised when Yoda told Obi Wan that there was another hope. The scene where Princess Leia told Han Solo and he replied I Know was improvised. Han Solo was supposed to say I love you back, However in Filming Harrison Ford kept telling Carrie Fisher He Loved her back it wasn't working.so one take he goes I know. He tells Carrie Fisher and George Lucas and the Director I know would be more what Han Solo would say to Princess Leia. Everyone agreed and The I know was kept.
Yes there are six million forms of communication in the GALAXY because it's a GALAXY which is very big. Yes the GALACTIC empire is very big because it's the GALACTIC empire which means it is the empire for the GALAXY which is very big. THE GALAXY IS VERY BIG!
While all Star Wars movies and shows were released in a different order, there is a full timeline that can be viewed after you've watched the Original Trilogy (4, 5, 6) and the Prequel Trilogy (1, 2, 3) in that order. From there, I recommend watching the full timeline "in chronological order": The Acolyte (currently being aired 1 episode per week), Episode I, Episode II, The Clone Wars (animated series), Episode III, The Bad Batch (animated series), Solo: A Star Wars Story (movie), Obi-Wan Kenobi (live action series), Rebels (animated series), Andor (live action series), Rogue One (movie), Episode IV, Episode V, Episode VI, The Mandalorian (live action series) (seasons 1 & 2), The Book of Boba Fett (live action series), The Mandalorian (season 3), Ahsoka (live action series), Episode VII, Episode VIII, Episode IX. There are also two "companion" animated series (Tales of the Jedi and Tales of the Empire) that address some things that many have wondered about... but those can be watched after you've done everything else, as they only fill in a few details that won't make any sense if you don't know the context.
Vader: "I am altering the deal." Emmy: "Why?" Let me take you back to Game of Thrones and remind you of BAD PEOPLE. 😊☺ After so much GOT and HotD it was strange (but fun) hearing you talk about Star Wars. I think the brand is a bit tarnished at the moment with all the endless TV spin-offs, but back in the day it was an extraordinary thing. Yes, I'm old enough to have seen this and the first film in the cinema. In fact, I wrote about Star Wars in my American Studies Final paper for my BA degree. The question was something like, 'The American detective show is the modern equivalent of the Wild West cowboy. Discuss.' No right answer, obviously, but you just had to argue a point knowledgably. My argument was that cop shows (Kojak, The Rockford Files, Ironside, Starsky and Hutch - they were all over TV, even prime time on BBC) were too realistic, and the sense of good and bad, black hats and white hats, was now provided by escapist sci fi/fantasy like Star Wars. I knew for a fact that my history professor would never have seen any of these films or shows, so I had my fingers crossed. But it all worked out well! ...... When Luke and Leia connected with each other at the end, my girlfriend and I turned to each other in the cinema and whispered the same three words. We had to wait three years for the next one . . . The story is told out of order because Episode 4 was originally Episode 1. I mean IV was originally I. If it had flopped there would have been no Episode 2, I mean V, let alone prequels. But then people wanted to know how it all began. And after they knew that, they wanted to know what happened next. Great fun as always.
Damn, I wanna start talking about how the Sith and Dark Side works but you'll find out in later episodes. And yes, that is Anikin Skywalker. He turned to the bad guy side. 😂
Emmy, don't read my comment. robtintelnot9107, don't confirm spoilers for new fans. Let them find out the truth on their own. The Vader reveal is left hanging until RotJ. It's not confirmed in this movie.
@@MeanMrMustard1 I think we talked before. Here's me, pushing the Machete order again. I think it's much better at revealing "certain things" by watching them happen over hearing about them from a Force ghost.
“Couldn’t someone just take out Darth Vader quickly and be done with it” Erm, no. He is so powerful with the force that any thoughts of aggression toward him, he would sense. And he would actually see the attack just before it happens, which is what appears to give Jedi such quick reflexes. He’s taken out entire battalions of soldiers by himself.
Great reaction! If you haven't seen Ep. 6: Return of the Jedi yet, then there's an alternate watch order you can try. You could do a Flashback Order where you watch Eps. 1-3 then finish with 6, because 6 is the finale of the first 6 movies, plus George Lucas made some changes in the original trilogy, especially at the end of 6 so that it better connects to the Prequels. Some fans call this the Machete Order, but technically that order cuts out Ep. 1 and we're not cutting out anything. Flashback Order includes all the movies, and even some of the shows if you want. You don't HAVE to watch the OT in release order, but the vast majority of us do believe you should start with Ep. 4, then 5, which you have. But from here you can watch everything that came before and then finish with the finale, with all the context necessary to make it more impactful. Some of us believe the Flashback Order gives you a more emotional experience. The end will hit better if you know everything. So if you don't mind being part of an experiment, the order would be 4, 5, 1, 2, 3, 6. The Release Order crowd can act like gatekeepers at times. They believe everyone should watch these movies the way they were released, which makes a certain kind of sense, but since there are so many more movies and shows, both live action and animated, suddenly release order doesn't seem so necessary. More context has been added in between the two trilogies, and that context makes for a better ending in 6. And this is not a spoiler, but if you watch in Release Order, then the ending might be a tad confusing because of the changes Lucas made. Yes, you WILL figure it out, but wouldn't you rather immediately understand it and have an emotional experience than one of confusion?
One of the bounty hunters hired by Darth Vader wore a helmet, mask, and armor. There's a RU-vid series: The Mandalorian. It's about a bounty hunter who finds a baby Yoda or to be precise a baby of the same species. They go on adventures at the Mandalorian still needs to look for people who has wanted posters in order to make money. It's a serious show lasting only 10 minutes or more with some humor.
About three years of time elapses between each episode of this trilogy. There are bigger jumps in the prequel trilogy, and most longtime fans hate Disney Star Wars. Except Rogue One. We also consider the Thrawn Trilogy of novels canon.
Emmy, you do not yet realize your importance. You have only begun to discover your power. Join me, and I will complete your training. With our combined strength, we can end this destructive conflict and bring order to the galaxy. It is your destiny..
I've just started to write this and just seen a similar comment - I think part of the problem here is that you are talking to camera over the dialogue and missing a lot of answers to your questions. The dialogue is key. I know it's a reaction, but you honestly don't have to vocalise every thought.
Don't confirm things she hasn't seen yet. Let her experience it on her own. Not every question she asks needs to be answered. It's common to wonder out loud about something.
*Watch the prequels (Episodes I, II & III) before you watch Episode VI.* Might sound counterintuitive, but trust me. Not only will you understand it all a lot better, but also Episode VI will get 120 times better with all the prequels in mind. Thank me later.
George Lucas is notorious for writing clunky, terrible dialogue. Harrison Ford famously told him during the filming of _A New Hope,_ "George! You can write this stuff, but you can't say it!!!"
It's not about clunky dialogue. It's about making it sound like the Cliffhanger serial movies of the 1940s. Lucas wanted to modernize something like flash gordon. That's why Star Wars sounds like that.
You speak quite a lot over important dialog, just an observation if appreciated in any way. Delaying your comments for a lull in dialog may serve you well.
The dated way of speaking isn't 70s, its 40s: Lucas based the vibe of the films on serials from the1940s/50s that he grew up on. FYI as my favorite GoT reactor you might be interested to know that the guy talking to Vader in his chamber that we then see commanding the AT-AT at 20:00 in your video is played by Julian Glover, aka Grand Maester Pycelle! Your GoT reactions are missed! I would totally watch you do a rewatch at some point, I think it would be fascinating to see how much more you'd get out of it on a 2nd viewing, just sayin'!
Ah that makes sense about the dialogue! Its such an interesting way of speaking but very entertaining 😂 I'm missing the GOT reactions as well! I didn't know people did rewatch reactions, will definitely think about that for the future!! 😊
Another prime example of a reactor who really should watch the prequels before watching ROTJ. I know you won't listen to me, but depending on what episode you end with determines if you want to end this with happy tears or sad ones. If you want to end with happy tears, watch the prequels next, and leave Return Of The Jedi for last.
Ohh interesting! I wanted to watch the movies in the order they were released to get the same experience everyone else had but I'll be curious to go back and watch in chronological order afterwards to experience the story told in that way as well!
@@EmmyReacts I watched the movies in release order because the other movies didn't exist yet. NOW that we have all of the pieces, it makes sense to tell the story in the way that tells it best. Episodes 4 and 5 introduce us to the main characters. You then jump over to the prequels to get the backstories before you watch Episode 6, which is the last of the first 6 movies. You can then watch 7, 8, and 9 to finish it off. Let me add that I would also suggest you watch the Obi-Wan Kenobi series right after Episode 3, as it takes place 10 years after Episode 3, and 10 years before Episode 4.
