Star Wars: Scene 38 Reaction and Review

[@ngu0061]

Dad is so glued to the screen. Loved his reaction.

[@PoindexterLounge]

Thank you! I love Star Wars for sure. I wish I hadn’t forced the boys to do this so late. They love Star Wars too but they were really tired that night.

[@ralek4328]

@@SingTodayi I wouldn't put it so harshly, but I do feel like she's not interested at all, and just spoils it for everybody.

[@PoindexterLounge]

Somebody doesn’t have a life. Are you like 12 years old? Interesting. How do you spoil something you haven’t seen before. It’s called a “Reaction Video” and “Review” that’s what you do. Look into it Marat. Thanks for watching even if the comment is pathetic Geez. I don’t mind constructive criticisms but being an anal suppository to just insult someone is the limit. Look yourself in the mirror. Here’s a tissue. . Rale, you couldn’t be further from the truth with your observation. She absolutely loves this stuff and that’s why she’s talking about it. That’s what you do in a Reaction Video. What the heck is she spoiling? That doesn’t even make any sense. How do you spoil a small addition to a 42 year old movie?

[@jaws666]

​@@PoindexterLounge the reason why "Vader" moved a lot better in Emipre and Jedi is because in the lightsaber battles was NOT David Prowse but a guy named Bob Anderson (since sadly passed away) who at the time of Empire held a 7th dan blackbelt in Kenjutsu (Samurai battlefield swordsmanship)

Poindexter Lounge 😳😜

[@chrispatton3597]

Poindexter Lounge 😂😂😂

[@jamessullivan4391]

Also, others have commented that they “heard” the force on the door, meaning that Obi Wan “held it,” thus Vader’s pause at the door. I don’t know though... another point is that Vader says, “Kenobi,” that he heard him speak to Luke or that he sensed him holding the door. Thoughts?

[@PoindexterLounge]

That’s an interesting idea because it seems Vader could have removed the door if he wanted to. That’s a good question for discussion. Might have to do a video on That.

You may not have seen my other comments about this. That is all my fault. We needed to get this video done because so many had asked for it and we wouldn’t have gotten to it for a while. So it was late and I had the boys do it even though they were tired. They really liked it and absolutely love Star Wars but it’s not fair to them because they were so tired.

[@nostalgiagaming560]

This is one of my favorite lightsaber fights ever. Somehow, more than ever, it feels like they have lightsabers, and are actually trying to kill eachother. I especially get this from Vader.

[@therogueadmiral]

Lol, I had the same reaction as the father. Jaw on the floor the whole way through.

[@4everhealthwellness344]

What I like about this fan film is capturing how a final duel between Vader and Obiwan really would have been after 20 years. The original didn't show Vader as that angry and hateful, which he was. He fought with the rage and sense of vengeance that I would imagine Vader having

[@mintyfresh4855]

[@emersonglasgow948]

Question asked why Vader didn't use the force to open the blast door, it's because Vader thought Obi wan had played a trick on him. When Ben raised his light saber Vader wasn't sure if Ben was tricking him but saw the opening and took it. When Ben suddenly disappeared instead of being a dead body it confused Vader, he thought it was a trick that he hadn't seen before and that Ben had learned more from the force and it scared Vader into thinking that Ben was stronger than him. This is why Vader steps on the cape wondering where the body went !😉👍✌

[@Drago7166]

Kids are just like “why am I here? Star Wars is lame”. The parents are just like “this is why I am here! Star Wars is awesome!”

[@Drago7166]

Poindexter Lounge yeah I’d guessed that. The parents reactions just seems so much more like what a kids should be. So full of life and joy. Great video btw. So glad to see SC 38 get more traction though. I got to see it when it was less then 10k views. 👌

[@GerardChristianZach]

You are the coolest family! As for this re-imagined scene, I was so impressed and blown away by it, I have become addicted to watching its reactions! LOL! It seems everyone feels the same way about it as I do. First, I understand that these people did not have the budget of a Hollywood studio. But what they did was still amazing! But, I agree that most important of all, they added to the story and the characters here. You can FEEL the near 20 years of anger, rage, and thirst for revenge in Vader the way they did this. And you can feel the guilt and regret in Obi-Wan and that, again, he did not really want to fight Anakin, but, again, had no choice but to. And you can feel the history between the characters in general. It is just fantastic how they did this. And, as much as I love "A New Hope" as it is / was, I would still love it even more if Lucasfilm went back and re-did this duel much like this. I know the technology wasn't available at the time of the original filming. But starting already with "The Empire Strikes Back" the lightsaber duels became much better and more intense with both effects and emotion as the films went along. To the point where the "New Hope" duel looks a bit out of place by comparison to even the "Empire Strikes Back" duel. And now we have Vader's powerful rampage in "Rogue One" that takes place literally just before "A New Hope". It is also great watching your whole family enjoying this together. My parents got me all the "Star Wars" toys as a kid - especially the action figures, but they weren't into the movies WITH me like this. It is so refreshing to see that. But, at least now, my line of business turns me and my cohorts into living versions of the action figures on a regular basis. I have the most fun job (I own / run a private party / event entertainment business providing high quality costumed movie characters for said events in Los Angeles). I am enjoying your videos.

[@donaldgilbert6739]

I loved your reaction! The kids didn't seem to impressed!

[@gothamgoon4237]

Yeah, that's kids today. They are brought up on modern CGI and tech, hyper violence and sex scenes so they are very desensitized to anything now. The stuff we were brought up on seems very plain and boring for them. It's a shame because they've missed out on so much that we got to have as kids.

[@PoindexterLounge]

So actually the boys really like the stuff we grew up with. I had them do this video pretty late because we really needed to get it done. It’s my fault because they were really tired by the time we did it.

[@override83]

I don't think it's that they didn't like it. I think it was more or less that those of us who grew up watching the OG trilogy, we've been seeing this fight for 42 years now. This was a fight that was totally mondernized. Kids, and everyone else these days, see things like this on a daily basis, with CGI and acrobatic and such. Whereas us who seen this when they were first released on VHS, theaters, etc., and seen it taken into modern film. So, all in all, I think we just appreciate it much more, given this is the first time we see Vader being Vader, taking out all that aggression, anger and resentment towards Obi-Wan we've seen being built up since the prequels.

[@ramjb]

at 9:00 ERROR: Dad.exe has stopped working. XDDD Now, seriously this is an amazing reaction. The way your eyes opened wide the second sabers began swinging was priceless. There's only one "but" with this sequence. Honestly Star Wars must be seen IV-V-VI and then the prequels, and then Rogue One (and then you stop and watch no more because whatever Disney has produced, other than Rogue one, is not even worth storing in the can for dog turds). The ending of this reimagination pretty much cripples and spoils the big reveal of Empire Strikes Back, which is one of the most emotionally gripping points of the whole franchise. You just can't put this in Ep IV DVD, it destroys that reveal and that's a no go...I mean for those of us who have seen all the movies of course that's actually a highlight (makes the fight so much more emotional)...but that can't stay in the actual movie. Other than that...yeah, it's perfection. I don't know how they managed to choreograph it so well, but both Vader and Obi Wan fight styles are just believable. You really "buy" that they're fighting to death (unlike so many other movie lightsaber fights when it seems they're more worried about looking cool than actually fighting), and to be honest they NAILED their styles.... Vader...oh my. He's just such a bulldozer. And Obi Wan, who barely can hold Vader's constant attacks yet still finds moments to try and throw a trhust in here and there to try to catch him off guard (not that he managed to, but still). Choreography is perfect, the performers execute it FLAWLESSLY, camera work was spectacular (the whole sequence from the moment Vader breaks through the fire until the cut to Han, Luke and the others is honestly the best camera work I've seen in a Star Wars lightsaber fight, the ones in Bespin and Death Star 2 included). CGI is as good as we can ask from some guys in their garage with limited resources, money and equipment, doing it during their spare time. You just can't ask for anything better. In the end most people wonder why this is so much better than the "new" stuff. Well on one hand this was done by true fans who obviously love Star Wars, while the Disney movies were produced and directed by people who either don't care about Star Wars or actually dislike it (he-who-shall-not-be-named who directed TLJ is on record saying that he didn't care for the originals, much less the prequels...and he's hired to direct a Star Wars movie. And of course he proceeded to do a disaster of a movie, act as if established canon didn't exist, and put at best a half arsed effort at the fight sequences. What did people expect??). But specially, what sells the fight so much is that all swings in that fight have a purpose: they're either done to try and kill the opponent or to deflect an incoming attack. Vader as Vader was already known as the deadliest force of the Galaxy (bar the emperor), and as Anakin as one of the best swordsmen of the Jedi order. It shows here. Obi Wan was famed for his excellence with the light saber, and his mastery of the defensive styles was said to be unparallelled. Even in his old age he was able to kill a tremendously skilled opponent in only three moves (Darth Maul). That mastery ALSO shows here. Those are supposed to be two masters of the craft going at it with the purpose of get the other down. It truly *IS* an epic fight because of who's fighting. And boy does it show here...and boy did they get this right. There's no pointless fancy saber twisting, no unneccesary acrobatics, no stupid showboating: just pure agression in a fight full of violence, rage even, grit, intensity. It's the polar opposite of every lightsaber fight we've seen since Return of the Jedi (the prequels were also guilty of it, but VII and VIII just indulge in it up to stupidly ludicrous levels)...and that's why it works. In this reimagination we see two masters of the lightsaber trying to kill each other, not two guys competing for whose does the fanciest looking acrobatics or saber-windmilling for the sake of looking badass. Meanwhile Kylo and Rey...against guards swinging in the background just to give them time to come back and parry...yeah. You know what I mean, right?. That's why this fight is and feels so good. It feels and looks real...the "official" movie stuff we've seen as of lately just looks like shit because it was coreographed as shit, performed like shit, directed as shit, acted as shit and guess what...the result is shit. Pretty obvious, if you ask me...

Nah. The thing that makes this so good is that the original is really just two guys waving sticks at each other. My favorite lightsaber battles are in Empire and Rotj. They have the most heart. Luke looks like a guy fighting for his life while Vader toys with him. Personally I don’t see anything to fix there. And Rotj is pure emotion. Luke is all out angry at Vader for calling out his sister. Those are classic. IMHO

When filming the original movie, saber props were fragile and could break. That limited anything they could do. They needed to be careful about not breaking the props. Alec Guiness was good at fencing, but these props did not allow anything cool. By that time filming schedule was so derailed that Lucas was at the edge of nervous collapse.
