Darth Vader is so bad-a$$…

1. He will walk straight into the sites of ferocious battles, just minutes after they've been settled. Be it Hoth or Princess Leia's ship, the guy is not afraid to get his hands dirty and bat clean-up.

2. He'll kill more Imperial officers in one morning than Luke did with his exhaust port torpedo bullseye.

3. He can wear a cape and still inspire fear and dread.

4. He can alter a deal multiple times on Billy Dee Williams.

5. His personal starship is the size of Nebraska.

6. Besides that crusty governor who evaporated in a ball of fire, he takes orders only from The Emperor, who, by the way, can shoot lightning out of his fingertips.

7. He'll slice off his son's right arm, throw appliances at him, then watch him plummet down a giant hole, all while undiplomatically breaking some big family news.

8. The guy will leap into a TIE fighter himself and enter the heat of interstellar battle, flanked by only a couple of pilots, who, as the records show, have an excellent chance of flying into each other.

9. He'll lay the attitude on Boba Fett, knowing the guy has a rope he can shoot from his wrist at any moment.

10. Blaster bolts are impervious to his palms.

11. His son won't talk back to him, even after the hundredth time he's been lectured about "destiny" and "Obi-Wan's failure, which is complete by the way."

12. He sounds like James Earl Jones.

13. He'll listen to his master yak on and on about his son taking his place, and how his son should kill him, and how he's a punk-ass ***** for not eviscerating him with a lightsaber, and still wait until Luke is almost deep-fried before realizing that the evil thing is not all it's cracked up to be.

14. He's unopposed to forcefully probing a 19-year-old girl.

15. He lives in what appears to be a snow globe or an oversized Easter egg.

16. He's losing his hair, and he's okay with that, thank you.

17. He is responsible for the wholesale slaughter of the Jedi order, which we know for a fact included small children.

18. He opts for murder by "slow, horrible, mystical asphyxiation" versus a quick thrust of the lightsaber or laser blast to the forehead.

19. Did I mention he has a cape? Well, he does.

20. His chest-mounted life support computer also doubles as an electronic day planner.

I see someone must have just invested in the release of the 4 DVD Star Wars set. Enjoy, Phil. I am still waiting my turn to get 'em from the home theater person who lives downstairs in the family room. :arcade:

I remember coming late to a showing of Star Wars when I was 6.
BTW, I bought my 4 disc set at Sam's club for $43.27.I had to exchange it because disc 1 liked to freeze and skip at 58:24. Go Figure!

Favorite line from a Mad Magazine parody of Empire Strikes Back quite a few years ago...

Vader: "Luke, I AM your father."
Luke: "No way, Dad wasn't black!"

I love Star Wars... It was the first movie I ever saw. I just got the DVD set, one thing that bothers me in the 'upgraded' sequences.

Han Solo SHOUL'VE KILLED GREEDO IN COLD BLOOD. period. What's this reacting to Greddo's first shot BS? ..sigh..

On the other side, I do like the scene with Jabba.

I've noticed that there is a line (or action) in each that cracks me up every time I watch.
Star Wars- C3PO "Let the Wookiee win."
Empire Strikes Back- Leia "I'd rather kiss a Wookiee!"
Han Solo "I can arrange that!!!!"
Return of the Jedi- Chewbacca does the "Tarzan" cry while swqinging on the vine w/ 2 Ewoks.

Star Wars-

Leia: "Stop complaining, it could be worse."

sound of growl from under the trash heap

Han: "It's worse."

---

Han: "One thing's for sure, we're all gonna be a lot thinner."

---

Leia: "Will somebody get this walking carpet out of my way!"


Empire Strikes Back-

Han: "And I thought these things smelled bad... on the outside!"


ROTJ -

Han: "A Jedi? I'm out of it for a while and people get delusions of grandeur."

---

Han: "How we doing?"

Luke: "As usual."

Han: "That bad, huh."

How about the many many outtakes that made the final cut?

Like when Han gropes Leia in RotJedi?

The new movies just cannot compare to this quality!!

Like when Luke is climbing out of his X-wing fighter, landed on the Yavin moon after just having increased the total financial debt of the Empire by the cost of exactly one new Death Star, and as everyone is running to him yelling and screaming in jubilation led by Princess Leia, Luke screams out:

"Carrie!"

(ie. Carrie Fisher... ie. Princess Leia. Doh!)

That's a good line, too. I leave some things open for more.

This quote came from comedian Maurice Lamarche:
(In James Earl Jones' voice): "Luke, I am your father."

"And, I am your mother, hmm mm." (in Yoda's voice)
