Yoda raising the X-wing is my favorite scene in all of Star Wars. Yoda wanted Luke to believe in the Force, believe in his friends, believe in himself. That's why Yoda looked so dejected when Luke gave up. Yoda didn't want to _prove_ that it could be done. He wanted Luke to believe.

I always loved it because even though it is a failure of faith for Luke, it also shows the different perspectives of these two generations. Luke has grown up on this backwater planet and all he really knows as he came of age is this ever-growing darkness of the looming empire, never the world of the Republic and Jedi heroes. They're just myths to him, and even though he wants to be one of them he doesn't REALLY believe in it. I think Yoda realized he needed SOME proof just to believe that world really existed at all.

I hear what you were saying about the opening. It's always there and I believe it's one of the greatest openings in cinema history. A long time ago for a start has a mythical quality to it and then it explodes into that opening. What you were saying about the scrolling though at the beginning, it was influenced by Flash Gordon. George Lucas wanted to direct the Flash Gordon movie, but the studio didn't let him, so instead he did his own Flash Gordon like serial, told in the nine episodes that we now have. Mind you, the opening without credits got George into bother with the Director's Guild. For A New Hope they allowed it, but after he did the same for Empire, which he had to do, he was fined and was even threatened with having the movie removed from cinemas. Lucas simply paid all the fines himself, but it was something he shouldn't have had to do. Cudos to him for staying with his vision.

47:38, funny story Chewbacca is based upon George Lucas's Alaskan Malamute Indiana. When Lucas would drive around picking out spots for filming locations, Indiana always sat up front in the car with him like a furry copilot. So when he was writing Star Wars he gave Han Solo a furry copilot. Lastly, when Lucas and Spielberg were making Raiders of the Lost Ark they named the hero Indiana Jones in honor of his pup. There is even a joke in the Indiana Jones series in which the main character's father reminds him that Indiana was their dogs name.

By the way, Han's scripted line saying goodbye to Leia was: "I love you, too;" but the actor didn't think Han would say that, so changed the line. The director liked it & kept it.

So Miss Elizabeth, I bet you think you are clever by not only finding another mom, but finding one who has been living in a cave for her whole life and doesn't know that famous line from this film.🤣Just kidding.😉You moms did a great job reacting to the middle film in the original trilogy!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

And to think if they had made C3PO a higher priority and fixed him right away instead going off for dinner C3PO would have warned them about the stormtroopers. Remember C3PO saw them and said that he must go tell the others and then realizes he was shot. It is later shown that C3PO would have told them right way by when Chewie starts putting him back together while in the cell and he briefly comes to life and one of the first things he says is "Stormtroopers! Here? I must tell the others." before Chewie disconnects him to work on him some more. So if they had fixed him right away they would have been warned that the Empire was there. But, no, they just left him in a heap and went to eat. But, on the other hand, then we wouldn't have had that great portion of the movie.

One thing that helps to know about time, it’s not a constant everywhere in the universe. Gravity affects the rate at which time passes. If I got on a ship, travelled to a planet in a stronger, or weaker gravity environment, time would move differently for me than you. It might move slower for me, and faster for you here on Earth, if I went to a planet in a higher gravity environment, say a planet orbiting a massive star many hundreds of times the mass of Sol, or even a neutron star or black hole, or a star that’s in a close cluster of other stars with a higher gravitational environment. The opposite would happen if that planet were to be in lower gravity, say orbiting a dwarf star in a void where there aren’t many other stars around, and the gravitational environment is quite weak. Dagobah may have been in a lower gravitational environment, and Luke would have experienced the passage of time faster than Han and Leia who were in open space until reaching the Bespin system. Also, the Falcon was limited in propulsion without a functional hyperdrive, so the trip from Hoth to Bespin could have taken a month or two at high sublight drive.

"Star Wars" was released in 1977. Lucas reworked the original trilogy in 1997, adding some CGI and additional scenes; he pronounced them as the definitive versions.

When George Lucas first conceived of the idea of "The Star Wars," what he had in mind was a trilogy of trilogies. When he got funding for the first movie, there was no guarantee any other movie would made, so he decided to start with the middle trilogy. No one other than George knew this at the time. When the first movie was released in 1977, it was simply called "Star Wars" without any indication of possible future movies. It wasn't until after The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983) had their initial theater runs and the prequel was green-lit that the first movie was renamed "Star Wars: A New Hope" and the original three movies were labeled episodes 4, 5 and 6. It was a real surprise to fans at the time.

It’s been three years since Luke blew up the Deathstar. Han was in love with Leia. He stayed with the rebellion for her. How ever she feels for Han, Leia is too stubborn to admit it. Han will ill tease her relentlessly over it. Han knows his boundaries and what he can get away with. The bounty Hunter Han mentioned in the beginning of the movie was proof enough it was time to leave. If his staying with the rebellion would put Leia at risk. If only she was honest with herself a thousand bounty hunters wouldn’t keep Han away. Han knows Leia loves him, and Han has been proving his for three years.

16:23 I always thought of it more like a kind of dialysis chamber. Since you have seen more of these movies, you know how badly mutilated Vader is. That suit isn't just armor, it is also a composite of all his prosthetics, including his mobile respirator. It is like a physical illustration of all the things Vader had to sacrifice to accomplish his life long dreams. Including things about himself. 😢 BTW, this secene also illustrates an imortant lesson in Business Management; Promote people arbitrarily, and you end up wanting to choke them! 😒

12:53 do you see that sticker on the left side of the door? it's a leftover from a cut scene. in the original scene, the few wampa (snow monsters) attacked the base, they were barely able to defeat them, the rest were tricked into the room and the door was closed on them, and a sticker was placed on the door with the inscription: do not open it!

I was 13 years old in 1977 when I saw the original Star Wars. I was 16 Years old in 1980 when I saw The Empire Strikes Back in the Movie Theatre. Everyone in the Theatre was shocked when Darth Vader told Luke who he was, The Scene with Leia telling Han she loved him was supposed to have Han say He loved her also.. After several Takes Harrison Ford just said I know. He explained that he felt like that would be a Han thing to do and George Lucas agreed. He allowed the Actors to adlib from Time to time.

Between this film and the last, Mark Hammill was in a car accident and suffered injuries to his face. I think the attack by the creature and Luke's subsequent injuries were meant to explain the noticeable changes in his appearance. I wonder if the cuts seen on his face correspond to his actual injuries.

He was in an auto accident after filming the original Star Wars, and when filming began on Empire, Lucas was worried people might wonder about his slight plastic surgery, so they explained it away with the Wampa injury.

They weren’t really being mean when they shut Threepio down. He had just suggested that they surrender. Leia is the leader of the Rebellion. I’m not a bit surprised that they shut him down when he said that.

Chewie is based upon George Lucas' dog, Indiana. Indiana's name was then given to Indiana Smith, a new Lucas character. Steven Spielberg was brought on to direct the Indiana Smith movie - from a script called "Raiders of the Lost Ark". Spielberg didn't like the last name Smith, and asked to change the name to Jones - and Indiana Jones was born.
