DARTH NATASCHA'S - FIRST TIME WATCHING!! * THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK*(1980) - Star Wars Movie Reaction

[@wesdean9128]

Women's reaction to Han's "I know" comment always cracks me up. It never fails. lmao!

[@nataschasummers]

dirtyyyyy move by han, might never recover

[@johto]

Yeah, i find it very weird. Maybe its something to do with the current woke culture etc shit. Back in the day it was normal response for a man (we could read between the lines), of course Han loved her too, that goes without saying for f sake. They just kissed and he had been "pursuing" her the whole movie LOL ! I remember i watched this first time around '86 when i was about 8 years old little boy and it totally made sense. Oh well 😆

[@tranders65]

And as someone who originally saw it in the theater back in 1980 (and many times after, lol), let me tell you with an audience at that time that line got a huge laugh of relief from guys and girls, playing off of the stress of what was happening to Han.

[@slowswimmer9169]

​@@nataschasummers wait for it!

[@jean-paulaudette9246]

I remember an interview with Linda Ellerbee, where she said when she first saw this, that line made her teenage bad-boy-loving pulse quicken in her veins!

[@jasonward1470]

Han's "I know line" was improvised. After many takes of Harrison Ford saying "I love you too" and not delivering it quite like director Irving Kirschner wanted it, he finally just said, "I know" and Kirschner was like, "That's it!"

[@brianhampton923]

And part of what helped was Han was not shy about his feelings. By this point Leia knows that Han loves her, but this was the moment she realized she loves him too.

[@hackapump]

It's interesting how differently women tend to react to that line. Some say "what a douche", while others think the swag is uber sexy. Matter of taste I guess.

[@Osprey850]

I've always wondered why Leia didn't seem caught off guard by the line, but the fact that it was improvised might explain it. Perhaps Fisher actually was caught off guard and smiled or even laughed and the editors decided not to use that and, instead, to use a take of her reacting to Han saying the line as it was scripted.

[@ronfehr7899]

I think "I know" was more fitting for Han's character. "I love you too" would have been too predictable. And I think that phrase can be overused.

[@stephanginther9051]

It definitely suited his personality more.

[@cyberjarl]

Regarding the cave scene, when Luke asks "What will I find?", Yoda answers "Only what you take with you". The cave is strong in the Dark Side of the Force and basically it shows Luke a few things: 1. It shows him what obsesses him (his hatred for Darth Vader) 2. After he decapitates Vader in his vision, it shows him that lashing out in hatred and anger will turn him into what he hates the most and cause him to fall to the Dark Side 3. It foreshadows the relation between Luke and Vader. Regarding Vader's trap for Luke on Bespin, not enough credit is given to Vader's understanding and mastery of the Force. When Luke had a vision of Han and Leia's misfortunes, it was the future he saw. Vader purposefully made Han and Leia suffer, going as far as torturing Han to use them as bait to draw Luke to him. This means he knew, as a Force user, that due to their relationship, their suffering would cause a ripple in the Force that Luke would sense in the past and come to rescue them. Hence Obi Wan saying "It is you and your abilities the Emperor wants. That's why your friends are made to suffer." Vader had the mindfulness and understanding of how the Force works to plan actions that would have consequences in the past and shape the present to his designs. This is also why Obi-Wan and Yoda told him not to go (not play into Vader's hand), and the story proves them right : As you pointed out, Luke does not help Leia and the gang at all. They escape all on their own. On the contrary, they end up having to rescue *him*.

[@CDRhammond]

Not exactly but close the cave brings out your greatest fear for Luke that was Vader and for Yoda it was his dark side self. When the helmet explodes showing Luke's head inside it was telling Luke two things one you got right in that if Luke was not careful he would follow Anakin's path and become the next Sith lord. The other was the cave telling Luke that he was absolutely in no way ready to actually face Vader who was a master of all 7 forms in a real dual which as we see did come true. The one and only reason Luke survived was because Vader is not as dangerous as the Sith that came before him. The other Sith they would not have cared if their opponent was family or not and killed Luke on the spot right then and there. Obi-Wan told Luke not to go because he did not want the lie he told to him in ANH coming out. Both him and Yoda were expecting Luke to kill Vader the first time they faced off.

[@cyberjarl]

@@CDRhammond I won't comment on your interpretation of the cave scene, but the reason why Luke survived is not because Vader is any less dangerous than other Sith, it's because Vader did *not* want to kill him, he wanted to recruit him. As for his lie not coming out being the only reason Obi-Wan and Yoda told them not to go after Vader, that might be part of the reason, sure, but the reason that mattered is because they knew he wasn't ready to face him.

[@GeoffreyToday]

The thing about the "I know" line to keep in mind is that Han Solo has spent the whole movie being very upfront about his feelings for Leia. He's not been the one pretending not to have feelings. He's been trying to get Leia to finally admit to her feelings. When she finally does, it's coming at the very last moment they may ever have together. So instead of telling Leia what she already knows, that he loves her back, he tells her "I know". He's telling Leia that she doesn't have to feel badly that she only admitted her feelings right at the end, that he's known she loved him the whole time, that she doesn't need to feel remorse over Han potentially not knowing how she felt this whole time. That's what makes "I know" so beautiful, because it's absolving Leia of any guilt she might feel over having not been honest with Han about her feelings for so long.

[@UTU49]

I like that interpretation.

“I know. And I know that you know. And I know that you know that I know that you…” Well, you know.

He was approached by the Director who told him ‘I’m gonna tell you something, I know it, George Lucas knows it and when we tell you you will know it. So if it leaks we’ll know it was you’ And he was handed the bit of paper with the line on it saying ‘I am your father’ He kept it quiet until the film premiered for the first time and Harrison Ford was sitting next to him and when the reveal happened of Vader telling Luke he was his father Harrison Ford turned to Mark Hamill and said ‘Hey Kid, you didn’t Fu***n tell me that’ 😂😂

Fun fact. The Vader reveal was kept a big secret. When they filmed the scene, the actor says "Obi Wan killed your father." Only a few people knew the real line which James Earl Jones would voice over later on

[@alzaelnext638]

According to James Earl Jones even he didn't know until he got the final script on the day of recording. He asked if they were trying to play a prank on him.

[@markmorningstar5374]

That type of reveal is unknown to the past two generations of social media leaks. It was phenominal. Just as was Spock's supposed death in ST II's "The Wrath of Khan" at the opening. Then we were happy for 90% of the movie! It made his death scene more meaningful!

[@UTU49]

Apparently for a long time, there were only 4 people that knew. Lucas, Hamill, Jones, and... producer Gary Kurtz, I think.

[@UTU49]

Apparently Harrison Ford found out at the premiere and said to Hamill, "Why didn't you tell me?"

I think it would have been director Irvin Kirschner who knew about "I am your father", and maybe a producer as well.

@@billthomas478I don’t think Lucas had settled on Vader being Anakin when he made Episode IV, and “vader” being “father” in dutch was just a happy accident. I think Lucas named him “Vader” because it’s like “invader” without the “in” and it sounds spacey and threatening.

[@rolandnew4676]

@@Etticos. Correct he didn’t know that. It means “father” in Dutch. Originally the line was to be “No, Obi-Wan killed your father.” In fact they even left that in the script and told all of the actors including David Prowse who played Vader’s body and spoke the lines to the actors to say that. The only people who knew of the twist was Lucas himself, James Earl Jones who had to speak the line for the voiceover and Lawrence Kasdan the lead writer and confidant of George. Therefore it was secret to everyone and couldn’t be spoiled. Hamill, Ford, Fisher and the others were all mind blown by it on first screening. In fact Harrison Ford even turned to George and said something along the lines of “You didn’t even tell me you sly son of a.”

[@ProfessorDoom]

Han said “I know” because Leia’s confession of “I love you” was to let Han know, before it was too late. His response was to let her know that he felt it all along, which in turn would alleviate any feelings of guilt she might have from being too hard on him in the past. Han is smart.

[@chrismignemi6195]

That’s part of it. The in-movie explanation refers back to their argument in the south passage on Hoth. Han says “you want me to stay because of the way you feel about me.” and Leia plays it off by saying “yes you’re a great help to us, you’re a natural leader” and then Han says “No. that’s not it.” … when he says “I know”, it’s because he ALWAYS knew even though she wouldn’t admit it earlier. This exchange is known globally and historically as one of the most romantic things ever uttered on the silver screen.

Hi Natasha. Like Luke, I was impatient and spoiled it for myself. Bought the novel before the movie opened. Read the part, “I am your father.” I was alone in the house, so I went outside and yelled at my neighbors, “Darth Vader is Luke’s father!!!!” When I finally saw the film in theaters, I discovered the thrill of what would later become reaction videos! I held my breathe and heard a collective gasp in the theater, hundreds of people yelling at the screen, “NO!!!!!” That was an incredible moment. I saw the film a dozen times, each time waiting for that moment!

This is not true. For God's sake, can we please quit saying this. Hamill's crash happened during the filming of A New Hope, two years before Empire was filmed. And his "scars" were not visible.

Absolutely no visible scars. It's hard to imagine he got the stars during A New Hope, they were too faint to see in Corvette Summer, but then came back with a vengeance for Empire.

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.

@nataschasummers It may have been mentioned by someone else in the comments but just in case,.....the "fate, destiny" thing from _'Tangled'_ is actually that movie paying homage to _'Ghostbusters'_ and something Venkman says to Stantz. I will say no more to avoid spoilers in case you haven't seen that wonderful film.

I am under an impression that the shots of the Wampa (the Abomniable Yeti) eating and standing up are newer filming scenes for the later edits. I believe they instead did scale sets to make the person in the costume look 11 feet tall instead of struggle with stilts again. As for Han using the Taun-Taun to keep Luke warm, I am given to understand somethign like that was in "The Revenant" (Matt Damon).

I don't think Grogu would have Yoda's syntax, because Grogu is living with Din. Plus Yoda does it deliberately, to make people think harder on what he says. Yaddle, another of their species who was seen in "The Phantom Menace", did not speak in the syntax Yoda does. Backwards diction, Yoda does speak.

[@TheMimiSard]

Emperor - You probably did see him in the newer stuff. Having looked back at my comment string in the previous video, you did mention seeing the newer parts of the franchise, like "The Mandalorian", but I am guessing you have seen some of the Sequel Trilogy. I will reiterate one of the comments I made in the previous video - Darth Vader is "The Dragon", and while I said he was Dragon to Tarkin in ANH, he is more-so Dragon to the Emperor.

[@aceldamia9114]

Correct. The shots of the Wampa eating as well as walking up to Luke were all added for the 1997 Special Editions. Originally in the cave, you were just shown shadows and some short shots of the Wampa walking, with most of his body covered by features of the cave. Other than the initial attack on the tauntaun, you don't see the Wampa's face until after Luke cuts himself down..

"I know" is one of the best lines in cinema history

[@Icypenguigo]

One of the best movies ever made! I don't re-watch most of the Star Wars movies regularly, except for this one, because it's so damned entertaining, from start to finish. The battle of Hoth, the Millenium Falcon in the asteroids, Luke's training with Yoda, it's all so legendary. This is basically a perfect movie, IMHO. Your reaction to the "I know" line was priceless!!! One of the most iconic moments in movie history. From what I understand, the original script just had Han say, "I love you too". But apparently the director thought that was kind of boring and cliche, so he let Harrison Ford improvise. And that's how we got "I know". 🤣Definitely kind of a dickish thing for Han Solo to say to Leia, but it does fit his character perfectly! :P I love your janky cosplay! Perfectly designed as a bit of last-minute fan-love for these movies!!! The calculator strapped to your abdomen is great! Darth Vader has a bunch of random silly buttons on his chest, so why not you?? 😂 Also, your accent is constantly wonderful and adorable! I think I'm just going to start saying "smashing" in my daily vocabulary because it's so cute, but really does convey the exuberance of how you feel!!! 😉

[@kennethmacgregor-Gregorach]

Natascha, if you haven't already please watch "Seagulls" bad lip reading.. I promise you'll enjoy it.. I won't spoil anything for you.

[@drigerdranzer7514]

27:04 That was a test to see if Luke were patient enough and ready to start the training. Normally Force sensitive people starts their training as a Padawan at 8, 9 years old.

[@Capohanf1]

It was interesting how George foreshadowed what was coming in the story with the scene in the "evil" cave. When Luke saw his head in Darth Vader's helmet, I figured out much of the rest of the story. A little insight on the movies and fans having to wait 3 years between movies, remember there was NO Internet back then! The only way anybody could get "ON LINE" was through a modem hooked to a phone line that you used to call a Bulletin Board that had been setup and run by somebody. We had three years to leave messages, theorize and argue each plot point before the next movie got into theaters.

[@zippyfear]

You made that in one day? Ok that's impressive!

[@christophercurtis4131]

I was 9 years old when The Empire Strikes Back came out and I loved seeing it in the theater; almost as much as seeing the original Star Wars in 1977 when I was 6. I cannot wait to see your reaction to Return of the Jedi.

[@LanceStoddard]

The only way to prevent Luke from using The Force during transport was to freeze him.
