The Empire Strikes Back - New scene to be added to DVD in '06

[vince56]

Rumours aboud that there's going to be an extra scene included in the DVD release of EMPIRE STRIKES BACK coming up next year!

Basically, it expands on the scene where Vader reveals his fatherhood to Luke, and ties up some loose ends created with the release of the prequels









The Empire Strikes Back: Extra-Special Edition

INT: CLOUD CITY GANTRY - MOMENTS LATER:

A furious lightsaber duel is underway. DARTH VADER is backing
LUKE SKYWALKER towards the end of the gantry.

A quick move by Vader, chops off Luke's hand! It goes spinning
off into the ventilation shaft.

Luke backs away. He looks around, but realizes there's nowhere to
go but straight down.

Darth Vader: Obi Wan never told you what happened to your father.

Luke: He told me enough! He told me you killed him!

Darth Vader: No... I am your father!

Luke: No, it's not true! It's impossible.

Darth Vader: Search your feelings... you know it to be true...

Luke: NO!

Darth Vader: Yes, it is true... and you know what else? You know
that brass droid of yours?

Luke: Threepio?

Darth Vader: Yes... Threepio... I built him... when I was 7 years
old...

Luke: No...

Darth Vader: Seven years old? And what have you done? Look at
yourself, no hand, no job, and couldn't even levitate your own
ship out of the swamp...

Luke: I destroyed your precious Death Star!

Darth Vader: When you were 20! When I was 10, I single-handedly
destroyed a Trade Federation Droid Control ship!

Luke: Well, it's not my fault...

Darth Vader: Oh, here we go... "Poor me... my father never gave
me what I wanted for my birthday... boo hoo, my daddy's the Dark
Lord of the Sith...waahhh wahhh!"

Luke: Shut up...

Darth Vader: You're a slacker! By the time I was you're age, I
had exterminated the Jedi knights!

Luke: I used to race my T-16 through Beggar's Canyon

Darth Vader: Oh, for the love of the Emperor... 10 years old,
winner of the Boonta Eve Open... Only human to ever fly a Pod
Racer... right here baby!

Luke looks down the shaft. Takes a step towards it.

Darth Vader: I was wrong... You're not my kid... I don't know
whose you are, but you sure ain't mine...

Luke takes a step off the platform, hesitates, then plunges down
the shaft.

Darth Vader looks after him.

Darth Vader: Get a haircut!

God Damnit you mean i have to buy another DVD? When will lucas stop?

Ha! I found this gem of a thread when I was searching for an Empire Strikes Back thread.

I re-watched this film recently and it's still one of my favorites of all-time. The first film I ever saw at a movie theater. I still vividly remember being 6 years old and blown away by the opening sequence and those walkers. I had no idea what was going on, but it didn't matter.

Best Sci-Fi film of all-time IMO.

No way, man...that's Lifeforce, for obvious reasons

I have no idea what that movie is about but I've watched it a hundred times. Lifeforce is the reason Rewind, Pause and Slow Motion were invented.

Oh thank God...I'm not the only one...

The funny thing is that it's actually a good sci-fi flick, but no one really realizes it for...well...obvious reasons

 

[jf-08]

Loved Lifeforce. Lol.

Probably something everyone else noticed but I didn't........

When they drop solo into "the carbonite machine," his hands are handcuffed in front of him. When he comes out, his hands are out, shoulder height, palms outward, and wide apart.

Hmmmmmmmmm.....

He get's uncuffed by the 2 Ugnaughts right before he's lowered. He just doesn't move much between it and going down. You can see it in this clip. It should be cued up right when it happens, if not it's at about 1:20.

I was always annoyed they needed all night to get the SNOW-speeders adapted to the cold.
