[@e115mastery]

Alot of people, like myself believe that she isn't referring to Padme here, but Bail Organa's wife.

[@mrs.skywalker7501]

e115mastery Yeah, because back in 1983, in George Lucas' mind, the prequels were already established. So why don't they match the OT's storyline? I'm sorry, I don't buy it. But I respect your opinion.

[@raynesperyll4873]

I agree. I know Luke specified "Your real mother", but perhaps Bail Organna married again, and Leia had no idea he was referring to their birth mother.

[@TheHiddenStudios]

It doesn't really matter what Lucas originally had in mind, as long as it can be explained in retrospect, which thankfully it can when you interpret her as talking about her adoptive mother, believing she was her real mother. I mean, George Lucas didn't originally plan for Vader to be Luke's father, or for Vader and Anakin to be the same person, or for Luke and Leia to be siblings, and you can kinda tell- for example, Obi Wan calls Vader "Darth" in their duel, as though it's genuinely meant to be his first name. And the whole deal with Obi Wan's story to Luke about his father being "true from a certain point of view" is clearly bullshit too, but the explanations are sufficient enough so I'm not really bothered by lines like this.

[@benjamintyus6957]

Michelle Streater it might've been a feeling in the back of her head but she dismissed it. It's like your subconscious or a gut feeling tell big you this and that, and you either listen to it or brush it off and reason that there's no way. In this case it's the force connection between them.

That's a really important moment for him because otherwise, it makes no sense they'd later marry and have a kid together. This little moment is what makes him worthy in Leia's eyes of basically loving this man for the rest of their lives.

In many ways, Luke resembles his mother Padme more than his father Anakin. It is fascinating to note that at this point in the saga, after Anakin's true identity is revealed to him, Luke starts to unconsciously take on the role of his mother and show curiosity about her. In reality, they resemble each other in their outlook and personalities. "There is still good in him."

[@samg9771]

+xezene1 It's kinda funny and cool how at the beginning of the movies, Luke starts out a lot like Anakin. Whiney and wants to go exploring. But then by the end, Luke ends up acting like Padme instead. Hopeful, wise and mature. Plus, as a side note, Leia is also much like her father. They're both pretty angry a lot of the time XD

@@maxfrankow1238 The issue with it is that nobody wanted to pick up 30 years later to see Luke as a beaten down Jedi in exile. We already saw that with Obi Wan and Yoda. And with the attitude Luke has at his core, I don't buy it in the slightest. This movie ends with an overwhelming feeling of hope and optimism. Luke is a mature, noble, powerful Jedi Knight on his way to rebuilding the jedi order, and he clearly has the guidance of Yoda Obi Wan and Anakin in the afterlife. The sequels giving us a new Empire, a new Vader, and the jedi being nearly extinct again is just so lame. There are a million other more interesting directions they could have taken Luke as a character and the sequel trilogy as a whole. The movies could have depicted Luke and the jedi thriving all those years later. It could be an exploration into what the jedi truly are, what Luke's training for them is like. The jedi are still so mysterious all these years later, even the prequels barely touched on their lifestyles and the process of becoming one.

Also, when Han's talking to her and she's upset I feel a lot of fans don't realise that she is upset because she has just found out she is Darth Vader's daughter, not because she's Luke's sister or something.

[@jakerittlinger380]

cabshdun No offense meant at all, but what makes you think fans don't realize that? It's pretty obvious to me.

[@LiamHannon98]

Jake Rittlinger No offense taken, mate. I've heard a lot of fans complain that Leia is a robot with no emotion and an example they give is that she never seems phased by the revelation that Darth Vader is her father. However in this scene, she is clearly upset over the fact. The only way I can see fans over-looking this is if they thought Leia was upset in this scene over Luke being her brother rather than Vader being her father.

[@audioamateur]

cabshdun I think she's also upset because Luke plans to confront Vader, which he just told her about

[@MissMismagius]

Wrong... She never even mentions anything about Vader being her father in the conversation, but she is however concerned when he's gonna confront him, which she tries to convince him not to. How embarrassing of both you and Jake Rittlinger to think you are so clever, yet so incorrect.

[@arilution]

MissMismagius Wrong again. Luke told her that Vader is his father, then telling her that she’s his sister. With a bit of thinking, she can easily find out that Vader is also her father. And yes, she’s scared that Luke will confront Vader as well, because she doesn’t want him dying, as she just found out he is her brother, plus she really cares about him.

This scene was pivotal to why so many people reacted so negatively to the Last Jedi. In this scene the reason we love Luke is that he never gives up on his father in spite of everything he's done. Yet we are supposed to accept that decades later he not only had a moment of weakness with Ben (which in isolation I can grant) but that he basically gave up on him entirely after that and let him wreak havoc on the galaxy. However IMO this scene also reflects negatively on Leia. You mean to tell me that here, after silently endorsing Luke's hope to bring his father back to the light, in TLJ she too gives up on her son before the end of episode 8? In hindsight, the actions of both Skywalkers seem completely out of character however at least Han Solos legacy becomes even stronger; by comparison he knew what his son had become and yet he still went to try and bring him home because he believed in him and loved him; even as the blade went through him he touched his sons face because he LOVED him. Padme, on her deathbed, despite Anakin choking her with the galaxy in smokes and knowing her husband killed younglings, still loves him and believes in his goodness. Luke and Leia, in ROTJ, despite everything Vader has done to them and their friends, still believe in his goodness. Han, in TFA, despite all his son had done, still loves him and believes in his goodness. What the hell happened to Luke and Leia in TLJ??? What a mess.

No. The prequels did not need to leave Padme alive longer. Scientists say a human baby can hear the mother's voice in the womb and that is why it responds to her voice when born. Leia had force powers she didn't recognize and they were likely in use before and after her birth so she could sense her mother before birth. And when born, she had her eyes open so she could see her mother, hear her and sense her feelings, her sadness. Luke had his eyes closed, so he does not remember his mother and quite likely Owen and Beru did not mention her much in the same way they did not talk much about his father.

[@lenamorrison3700]

This has always been one of my favorite scenes in “Return of the Jedi” and Star Wars in general. It’s emotional because of the dialogue, but also because of the way these characters really show who they are now that so much has changed. Mainly, it’s successful because of the way Mark Hamill evokes Luke’s earnest and conflicted feelings in this moment. You can tell he’s internally anguished, yet confident about what he needs to do. It’s evident in the expression of his face, the way he struggles to maintain eye contact but also looks into Leia’s eyes intensely. More than anything, it shows in the gentleness and sadness in his voice. Luke has never sounded this sad or serious, and it shows how far he’s come from the impulsive kid he once was. Leia is true to her character in this section, too. Finding out Luke is her brother is something intuitive for her, and it makes sense because the two of them have always had strong feelings for one another, but they didn’t diagnose them correctly until they found out their actual connection. (Otherwise, the chemistry between them in “Star Wars” and the kiss they shared in “The Empire Strikes Back” would not have happened.) Leia is so struck by this discovery that she begs her brother to flee the conflict instead, which shows how much she has grown from her somewhat callous approach to life. Luke is the only family she has, and while she can deal with Vader being her father matter-of-factly (meaning that in Leia’s typical manner, she understands that she can’t change her parentage and simply views Vader as evil), she can’t really bear to lose Luke. And then there’s Han, the one Leia famously accused of not caring about anything. Here, he shows he does care, in the simple gesture of taking Leia into his arms. It’s incredible the way this scene shows the way this classic trio has grown and how they now get strength from one another. It never manages to not move me. There is no way Leia would have remembered her mom, though, and that’s something the prequels messed up. I find it funny how some people comment on the plot holes in the originals caused by the prequels, as if the originals are to blame. My friends, whenever the prequels do not match up with the originals, that is because the prequels were poorly made, and not the other way around.

[@TheRivrPrncess]

Yes Leia could have remembered her mom. That is how strong the light side of the Force is. The prequels never messed anything up. In fact, you can see how Leia's eyes are opened at fully receptive to her mother. You can see how Luke's eyes are closed which is possibly why he had no memory of her.

[@rezenpm]

Incredibly well acted, peak moments for all three characters at once in such an amazing serene setting and such a powerful turning point in the story where Luke finally accepts his fate but not before Leia accepts the truth with grace and humanity, and finally Han lets go of his jealousy and accepts his true love for Leia.

But the memories of torture and of Alderaan are still fresh. She’s torn in two. It’s all conveyed in her eyes and facial expressions as she gazes at him.

@@alphaxan8175 which, I'll agree with and remark on 4 years after you posted this: And that's fine. I think it kind of shows that one's struggle with resisting the dark side is never truly finished. Moments of weakness will hit almost anyone. Especially when you're a mega powerful wizard and you unwillingly see visions of the future of this little brat turning into a murderous psychopath. Themes of fate and destiny are pretty heavy in Star Wars. (The OT at least. The PT tried to make it scientific by letting you count powerlevels of force in one's bloodstream, rofl.) So to answer this in more of a cheap manner? Luke's fate with Vader is just simply different from what it was with Kylo. But Vader was also in a completely different place from Kylo when Luke is in their lives. Vader: Already evil by someone else's doing. Showed he was unable to kill Luke in their last encounter. And with an ultimate showdown on the Death Star, this was all going to end one way or another. Honestly, the only thing being on the DS did was ensure that Vader/Palpatine wouldn't be more hands on in either of the other battles. The Death Star blows up regardless of who wins between Luke/Vader. Kylo: About to be evil by Luke's doing; this is him gripping with his own failures. And unlike Vader in which there was a very definitive 'last stand' moment. the future for Kylo was still murky and long. Luke couldn't really afford to fail here. That 'leniency' he had on the Death Star was no longer in play.

@@invenciblefolgore6405 ESB even gives you a scene of Leia & Luke talking telepathically. (Albeit, this was before they decided Leia was a Skywalker as well, as I think that only was made final when it came to write RotJ. Happy accident) One thing I should have made more clear too: Luke wasn't dealing with his own failings in RotJ. Vader was never his fault. Luke just needed to be Luke to 'survive.' In TLJ, he's facing his own failure head-on. It's a completely different dynamic. If he let's Kylo become darkside, Luke has the Force foresight to KNOW that will lead to the deaths of so many others. And that's blood squarely on Luke's hands, especially if he has a chance to stop it. And sure enough, by not handling Kylo, Kylo goes onto be a key part of the starkiller base. Honestly? I'm not so sure that stopping Kylo before he could do that IS an evil move, lol. Its essentially the age-old question: If you had a time machine and could 'stop' a certain dictator as a baby, would you do it? None of that dynamic really exists with Vader. He's already bad and it was someone else's fault. And it's not really Luke's responsibility to clean that up. Completely different from what manifested with Kylo. You can stop reading there, but if you're into sports analogies: Its the difference between playing vs coaching. When you're a player, you're really only responsible for yourself. Of course there's pressure to perform well, but so much of it is individual, even on a team sport. You can really only control what you do. When you're a coach? Good lord, the pressure is exponential in comparison. Losing is bad enough as a player. But losing is the worst as a coach. You feel a responsibility for how everyone performs all of a sudden. It's an entirely different mindset when you're in charge of the troops. Luke was playing in RotJ. He was coaching in TLJ.

Saw this scene in 1983 when I was 10 years old. I hope I get to see them together again in a few days in The Last Jedi. I never would have thought when I was a little kid that 34 years later I might get to. I love Star Wars!

One of the most underrated reveals in cinema history

[@Pasan34]

Leia: "Luke, run away! Far away!" Luke: "OK!!" (runs away to be an island hermit)

[@ausername5410]

Leia: Luke, we need you back Luke: Seriously?

and drink blue milk while doing a weird face

[@CDRW24]

That was Jake, not Luke.

"In time you'll learn to use it as I have"... IM STILL WAITING LUKE

Angel JediFaux 3 words: The Last Jedi 😂

[@MrPoeGhost]

You'll regret typing that if you've watched Last Jedi. Oh god, that Leia scene, lol.

[@jaylawrence8673]

When that scene happened I was like " Yeah Leia show everyone you can use the Force"

[@RadioactiveSince1990x]

"Because there is good in him, I've felt it. He won't turn me over to the Emperor. I can save him! I can turn him back to the good side." The Jedi theme playing over that bit is brilliant.

[@RadioactiveSince1990x]

+Rosita Mariposita It was good timing for the theme to play, as Luke talks about there still being good in Vader. A more tragic version of it plays when Vader saves Luke.

[@korrblank1361]

Couldn’t he have said “to the light side” instead?

[@cristobalaraya3541]

It's incredibly how good the original trilogy is at implying without any exposition, it gives you just the right amount of info for your imagination to make the rest of the work.

[@startmirca]

Just came back after watching Episode 8.

[@joeytaylor1021]

startmirca did you like?

[@fiveredpears]

It's strange that she doesn't say, "Fuck! That means Darth Vader's my father as well".

[@EddieMachetti]

Right? She never once acknowledges the fact that Vader is her father as well. Kinda fucks with my head a little.

[@nastynas9000]

This is one of the best scenes in the movie. The dialogue, emotion, and music is incredible in this scene.

[@KevinShackett-u6g]

The part where Leia says to Han "Hold me". really touched my heart and I had tears running down my face because I knew she would fall for him and end up with him. True love.

[@russellnewton1229]

Watching this scene between Luke & Leia, it just re-emphasizes to me all over again just how magical the characters Han, Luke & Leia were to the original SW's saga. I also add R2D2 and Yodi to that statement too. Having the original main 3 characters gone, it can never be the same for me ever again. For me, it's like when actor Dan Blocker ("Hoss Cartwright") died, Bonanza was never the same. And when Curly was no longer one of the original 3 Stooges, they were never the same either. It didn't help SW either when RJ destroyed Luke's character, and episodes 7 & 8 were not the same/didn't grab me magically like the original trilogy did.

[@caballeroPL]

I hope Leia will use the force in the upcoming Episode VII. It would be badass.

[@elcap22]

I hope she doesn't wear the gold slave bikini.

[@ArnavRanadeKingOfArnavlandia]

***** I agree

[@Suave2459]

Yea especially since she is super old, her in that outfit would make me vomit

[@elcap22]

SpazticzGamer I know, it would be like when Nichelle Nichols performed a nude fan dance in Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. She was 57 at the time!

[@sdaly5391]

SpazticzGamer I'm sure they'd have a new actor play her so she's not that hold.

[@MsTdiniz]

RIP Carrie Fisher. Farewell, my princess. Thanks for everything (1956-2016).

"You're wrong Leia, you have the same power General Grievous has." Flies through space.
