In the novelisation it was 'Never!' but I'd have to find the scrip to see what was supposed to be said, but I believe it was 'Darth!'

In the script it says "Never!", but I think I remember when seing it with subtitles, that it said "Darth!"

One good moment is in ROTJ where Luke Force-chokes the Gamorrean guards and shows how far he's come along.

Mark himself says that is not true. But then again, the whole cast was probably high, so he might not remember.

The whole thing's a myth. I always thought he said "hey", and I actually beleived it when they said it was "carrie"; until someone right here on this board pointed out that the word was isolated and played back by some sound engineers, and that it was indeed, hey.

Amidala nude scene. Well in my version of Star Wars that's the best scene.


Seriously, the Yoda fight kicked ass and is one of my favorite moments.

Chewbacca roars

Han draws and fires

Vader shruggs off the shots

gun fly's into Vaders hand

They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

There are too many:

The famous "I am your father"
The famous "I have a bad feeling about this..." scenes
The "We would be honored if you joined us"
"He will join us or die"
"This fully armed and operational battle station"
"You may fire when ready...WHAT?!"
"Help me Obiwan-Kenoby"
"A powerful Jedi he was, a powerful jedi"
"Dont think, act on the moment, trust your instincts"
"Sister.... so you have a twin sister"
And so on...

In A New Hope Han and Chewie chase 20 odd Storm Troopers, the Troopers stop and start shooting then hand and chewie have to about face and run like hell.
