You know what’s blowing my mind is the absence of a score. The sound effects are the soundtrack

[theunknowncommenter]

Thumbs up for everybody who ever crashed into a tree while playing the speeder bike chase in every Star Wars video game that adapts this scene.

When Luke fires up his light saber you know it’s on!

After 40 year still the best blaster deflections in the entire series.

[kjmtd]

that speeder “roar” when they’re in the distance is one of my fav sounds of all time, 0:30

[foxmike]

I love how while Luke Skywalker (at least the classic incarnation seen here) is courageous and badass, he is never without humanizing moments. Even when he does something heroic, such as successfully hitting the exhaust port with proton torpedoes or slicing off the steering vanes of the attacking speeder bike with his lightsaber, he tends to breathe a huge sigh of relief afterwards. That humanization, in concert with his strength as a Jedi, makes him so appealing.

Fun Fact: While Production was filming this scene, George Lucas told Peter Mayhew (the actor inside the Chewbacca costume) to not leave the set. So hunters wont kill him by mistaking him as big foot.

I can only imagine what it was like watching this in the theater in 1983. My Dad told me stories as to how the crowd was going absolute apeshit throughout the movie during the intense battle scenes. That had to have been one of the best human experiences ever!

[mikeyoungblood]

I love the noise the Scout troopers make when they are KO’d and/or killed

[sarcasticguy]

I'll never grow tired of watching Luke deflect blaster shots from the bike. They even did the pyrotechnics to bounce them in to the trees and make the trunks explode. I always wondered if Luke intentionally sliced off the control vanes or if he was aiming for the Trooper and missed. Either way he was going to cut the bike in half.

Happy 40th anniversary to Return of the Jedi!

[flackjacketdits]

I miss when movies were as good as this

[robwalsh]

Leia is 100% a Force User with the way she navigates that forest when she ambushes the Scout Trooper.

[micahcaraballo]

I always wondered how Luke was able to find his way back after that long chase, and then I realized he must’ve used the Force as a GPS 🤣

[scootsmcgoots]

This one scene is more exciting than the entire sequel trilogy.

[Christmas_Joe]

2:21 That's why you must see what's in front of you when you drive something

[KAZU-wdwj]

I am a Japanese illustrator. Fo Fo Fo Forty years have passed ! I can remind this scene Just like yesterday! Thank you for your up loading.

[tyrannozilla]

This chase > "They fly now."

[gwbsini]

The bits where they awkwardly shove into each other are oddly hilarious. And I mean that in the best way possible.

[petercook]

2:19 I have a Mandela effect of the scout trooper maniacally laughing upon seeing Leia's speeder explode when he turns around before turning back and screaming at his own impending doom.
