The CG song and dance added to Jabba's palace were the worst things of the OT.

Special Edition Luke's scream when he voluntarily attempted suicide were the worst part of ESB. Second worst was Boba Fett's new voice and Vader's new lines that replaced "Bring my shuttle."

I actually liked the idea behind it, and C3PO's double-take is just fine, it's the stupid slapstick of the aftermath that makes it shitty.

If it was more that just an arm coming out like some Monty Python shit it could have been good.

Lucas had a weird fascination with Stormtroopers immediately regretting the decision to open or close a door.

I just rewatched the trilogy yesterday. Aside from Special Edition shit, the most cringey moment was those two guys at Jabba's palace weeping over the dead Rancor. For some reason this takes up a whole 20 seconds or so and is just completely bizarre and out of place.

I fucking love that scene, it makes it feel as though there's some actual context to the rancor's existence in the palace and kinda gives added personality to the people who work for jabba rather than just having them be as personality-less and uniform as stormtroopers.

that's the idea but that didn't make it any less of a terrible idea. it's easily Ewok-tier in how appropriate it was in a Star Wars film.

I can scarcely think of something that pulls you out of the movies more than this moment. It reminds you that you aren't watching a story of what happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away. You are, instead, in a very present time in a galaxy right here. Aside from the inclusion of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial in the senate chamber in The Phantom Menace -- which, by the way, proves that Earth exists in the Star Wars universe -- this is the most egregious display of Earth happenings in the entire franchise.

Chewbacca swings, with two Ewoks clinging to him, onto an AT-ST using a vine. I'm cool with that. However, he chooses to let off a Tarzan yell. I'd call it something else, but there is nothing else to call it. It's a Tarzan yell. It's the yell that Tarzan makes when he swings on a vine. I can't refer to it as anything else because Tarzan made it up. It's his yell. The fact that Chewbacca makes the same yell when he swings on a vine can only mean one thing: he's seen a Tarzan movie. Presumably he, E.T. and Doctor Emmett Brown all caught a matinee sometime in the mid 1950's. The real question is this: Did this happen before or after the Clone Wars?

"Nerf herder" and "laser brain" always make me cringe.

Yub Nub. What a disappointing way to end Star Wars.

>Worst scene in Empire

I always found the scene in Cloud city where Han and Leia are talking in that white room about Lando to be pretty poorly done compared to the rest of the movie. It's the only scene where the acting feels a bit wooden and the set and lighting just don't look good at all. I understand it's purpose in the movie, I just don't think it was executed that well.

Jedi rock for sure. Or the part where the Ewoks beat the stormtroopers if you exclude the special edition.

In Empire I would have to say when Vader talks to the Emperor and he has that weird mask thing on that is never seen again.
>>
>>63605938
They hadn't decided on a final form for Sheev, so they used that.

In the original special edition release they changed it to the emperor from jedi. In the Super Duper Special Edition, it's Monster Mash.
>>
>>63606719
Why did they change it twice? Return Sheev would have made more sense because of the 20 year gap between trilogies.
>>
>>63606719
>original special edition release they changed it to the emperor from jedi
no, they left in the 1980 sheev in 1997.

This makes me think-how much time was there between ESB and ROTJ? How do we know Luke and Leia didn't have sex in between? They must have been pretty lonely considering Luke just lost his best friend and Leia her first and only love, both under a lot of stress, not knowing if tomorrow might not be their last. Who knows what they got up to.
>>
>>63605837
The ewoks managed to look okay for a bunch of midgets in teddy bear costumes and their village is so cool it got put in Donkey Kong Country. It's just the slapstick with the stormtroopers.

Empire happens 3 years after ANH, Jedi is a year after empire.

>Luke just lost his best friend
What? Are you referring to Han? They definitely had earned each others' respect and friendship, but they still don't seem like they'd be anything but bored by each other when not in a fight.
>>
>>63607947
>when not in a fight.
Considering that they're part of the rebel alliance and traitors that are the last Jedi, and a guy who has a price on his head from the hutts I think it's more likely to assume that the only time they're not getting into fights is when they are just getting out of fights.
>>
Assuming we're talking about the theatrical editions
For me it's the scene where Leia and Wicket first meet and are attacked by the two stormtroopers, but then Wicket hits one with a stick and Leia hits it with a log or some shit. It's supposed to be cute or funny, but feels out of place and a completely unnecessary scene on top of that.

Worst scene in Empire is when R2D2 gets spat out by the swamp monster on Dagobah.

>>
>>63608096
Granted, but I still think it's a stretch that they'd call each other their respective best friend. Luke is way too invested in his Jedi training and the loss of Ben, and Han already has Chewie, who he's been through far more with and in terms of occupation, has way more in common with.
>>
>>63608728
The slow pace and build up of A New Hope is what makes it Lucas' masterpiece. It's his only fucking Star Wars film where he actually pays attention to the classic films he is channeling and gets it right.

>Luke is way too invested in his Jedi training
Not really. He didn't do shit about it for 3 years until Ben's force ghost showed up and told him to go the the Dagobah system.

I mean I'm sure he was doing exercises ben taught him, and meditating, but there's no indication he was dedicated to any sort of training.

The entire raid on the Endor moon just feels forced and not really interesting. I actually love the Ewoks and the relationship they develop with Leia and 3PO, but I don't care for the Rebel attack on the bunker. It's the only weak part in an otherwise fantastic film.

>Worst scene in Empire

That's like asking what was the worst part of a really good night full of fantastic sex.

I suppose the part when Vader chokes out the second captain for failing to catch Han in the asteroid field. It just cuts off to him falling to the ground dead, and you don't get to see the dialogue. Not that the dialogue between them is relevant, so it's a stupid thing to complain about, like complaining about the one thing that could have been different in a night full of otherwise fantastic sex.

Oh, here's another one, more dialogue and perspective from Boba Fett. Something to develop his perspective of the events and relationship with Han.
