I think they should've said, "Speaks the truth, Yoda does."

in the carbonite freezing scene, Han was originally scripted to reply "I love you too" in response to Leia saying I love you. after many takes without success, Harrison Ford jokingly responded "I know" and the director felt it fit the character too well and went with it

Peter Mayhew, the 7' 3" actor who played Chewbacca, had to be escorted by crew members and wasn't allowed to wander off set while filming The Return of the Jedi in the forests of northern California due to the possibility of being mistaken for Bigfoot by hunters ( northern California is a Bigfoot sighting hotspot ).

everybody (prequels, original, and force awakens) they say "i got a bad feeling about this"

Say what you like about the phantom menace but the final lightsaber duel is awesome

[alexandernorthover]

I recently re-watched the Phantom Menace and honestly, I don't think it's THAT bad. All I thought was terrible was how Jar Jar Binks was so out of place (and completely unfunny and unnecessary), the acting for Anikan was quite cheesy and often fairly bad, but hey it's a child actor and I really think that Natalie Portman did atrociously as Amidala. Other than that, the film felt epic, the other Gungans aren't bad, some of them are even heroic and the lightsaber fights are awesome along with the performances of Ewan McGregor and Liam Neeson.

Vader: I am your father
Me: Oh sure you can just take off your little helmet and your mask and show us all who really are.

I'm re-watching episodes 1, 2 and 3. I don't see what's so bad about them.

[DazzoFTW]

I was going to say a Mexican joke, but I didn't want to cross the line.

[StarGeek]

Should I feel bad that I already knew all of these "Hidden Facts You Didn't Know"?

[coreyreiner]

I love episode 1 and I'm a huge Star Wars fan

[FatCatFelixOG]

Dude the picture of the video is not even a frame of the video. WTF? the entire reason I watched your video was because you highlighted the 3 bright squares in vaders helmet. Why would you do that? It's misleading.

[Joyboy]

Original Millennium Falcon cockpit was a B-29 Superfortress cockpit

[itzbarcz]

i don't know why people didn't like the phantom menace, its probs my favourite

[blackacid]

darth vader: "i am your father"
leia: "what?"
im giving this a thumbs up!! ^^

[ravenvince]

Also The Phantom Menace wasn't hated when it came out. it slowly began to fall later. I remember going to the theaters 3 times to see Episode 1 loved it at the time. after it was over it got a standing ovation from us. now I'm like it's not that good. but the move still grossed over a billion.

[MsDjessa]

Well this could be something some fans don't know. Many of the weapons in original trilogy are based in real weapons. The props were actual gun designs with sci-fi stuff added. Stormtrooper E-11 is actually Sterling SMG, Han's pistol is Mauset C96. And one can see troopers wielding bigger weapons based in Lewis light machine gun and MG 34. Oh and rebels have rifles based in M16 and STG 44.

[ekimolaos]

Mark Hamill didn't know that Vader was Luke's father. In the original script Vader would say "No, Obi-Wan killed your father" in order to shock even the actor playing Luke at that time, and when Vader actually said "No, I am your father" Mark Hamill really was at shock! That's why the scene was so tense. I don't remember exactly, but I think only the actor playing Vader knew about this. That's one fact you missed :P

[mikeoxlong]

I am a true sith lord and I wanted it should have ended with luke takes vaders helmet and said i'm vader but, Nooo he changed so the kids would have a good time. What about us siths who wants the empire to win

[Hank..]

Maybe its because I haven't seen it in a while, but I liked the phantom menace. I understand the issues with it, especially regarding jar jar binks, but I feel like a lot of the hatred is because its popular to hate it.
