Ha! Totally forget to put the poll card up. Now you can vote. 23:45

Just the fact that Leia had the balls to continue to lie to Vader when he literally saw her ship jump to hyperspace like a day ago.

Luke: "how did my father die?"

Obi-wan: "he wasn't very good at the floor is lava"

Binary Sunset is one of the most iconic scenes in film history.
And it's damn near perfect.

“You are part of the rebel alliance and a traitor! Take her away!”
One of my favorite line deliverys ever

R2 was never his co-pilot.

His droid died over Coruscant, 17 BBY

Press "F" to pay respect to R4-P17

When you realize that darth Vader was grounding his daughter

Never heard him say Carrie in the return, always thought it was an enthusiastic “Hey!”

Funny enough, Owen wasn't lying about Anakin on a spice freighter. His personal ship during the Clone Wars really was a spice freighter, but repurposed into a fast warship

[PerovNigma]

There's a double meaning to "He died about the same time as your father."
I mean... "You were my brother, Anakin! I loved you!" Look at Obi-Wan's face in that scene and tell me he didn't just die, spiritually speaking.

I find your lack of the binary sunset scene disturbing.

The line "I can't see a thing in this helmet!" is actually a great ad-lib because the helmet prop wasn't made with eye holes.

Let's also win Alec Guinness' acting. He was able to portray PTSD that we wouldn't know how he got it for over 20 years

7:14
Luke: "How did my father die?"
Ben: "49 times we fought that beast; your old man and me. It had a chicken head with duck feet... with a woman's face, too."

Man... Bad Lip Reading has forever damaged that scene for me. Thanks, BLR! :)

[Kaiimei]

When you said "The Real Hero" I was expecting to see the droid that blew himself up so that R2 would be picked instead of him, since he knew just how important it was that R2 was the one Luke left with. A solemn F for our fallen Hero.

[Super_mong]

Luke: how did my father die?
Obi-wan: let's just say I had the high ground...

[klausvonzeit]

The Expanded Universe already provided a brilliant resolution to why a short distance on the Kessel Run is something to brag about: in between the two planets, there is a massive black hole cluster, and it's tricky to pilot near one of those. So, making the trip in a shorter distance means flying close to the black holes, thus confirming both your skill and your ship's quality.

Luke: "I-I got - homework."

Obi-wan: "aight imma pretende you didn't say that."

[MasterAnakinSkyWalker]

Ben Kenobi: Obi-Wan Kenobi. Obi-Wan... That's a name I've not heard in a long time. A long time.

Luke: You know him?

Ben: Nope, never heard of him.

[MasterAnakinSkyWalker]

"Obi-Wan Kenobi. Obi-Wan.... Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time. A long time."

"You know him?"

"No, it's just a name I haven't heard since before you were born."
