Star Wars: Episode V - I am your Father

Anakin: Loses Hands Luke: Loses Hand Leia: Loses Han

Vader: Join me Luke: Fall down Vader: Finally I have the high ground.

I was 16, in the theater. No spoilers back then. No internet. It was a surprise and I’ll never forget it. Even Yoda being a Jedi master was a surprise.

"join me, and together we can rule the galaxy as father and son." That's what I say every night to my son.

Meanwhile in Mexican version Darth Vader: Luke, I am your PAPI Luke: AY DIOS MIO, NO!!!

Luke: Did you know my father Vader: Of course I knew him. He’s me

"He told me you killed him." Obi Wan ain't lying.

"No, I am your father" Dude, I saw this movie a thousand times but that phrase gives me chills every time I hear it.

I love how Luke's suicide attempt is basically saying. "Fuck you dad!"

Biggest plot twist on a movie ever,period.

The absolute palpable agony in Hamill’s voice when he reacts to the news is some really incredible acting.

The saddest thing about this twist is that because it's so ingrained in pop culture that we'll probably never see another geniune reaction to it.

General Grievous at the bottom of Cloud City: “Ahh another fine addition to my collection”

"And leia is your sister" "That's not true thats... improbable.." "And the empire will be defeated by a bunch of ewoks" "Thats... very unlikely..."

I like how Vader just looks down there and tiredly watches Luke fall, after all that dialogue, he just stares down his son falling for 3 minutes.

Imagine being in Luke's shoes for a moment: Luke didn't know who his parents were or what happened to them. Then Obi Wan told him that his father was a Jedi before being 'killed' by Darth Vader, who was responsible for countless atrocities across the galaxy. Then when Luke actually confronts Vader in actual combat and lost the fight, he's mentally heartbroken that his own dad is the very person that conmitted atrocities and served the Empire(who also committed lots of atrocities). Needless to say, Luke has every reason to be shocked right now.

I can’t believe Mark Hamill actually got his hand cut off for this scene. Such dedication.

Vader: I am your father Luke: NOOOOOOOO! Vader thinking: ... yep, that's my kid alright

So many people remember "Luke, I am your father"

The mother- and father- of all plot twists. It's so iconic that even someone like me- who doesn't even like Star Wars at all- acknowledges it's presence in pop culture.
