Star Wars Deleeted Scene

Something that wasn't included in the original release

It's probably old, but this is the first time I've heard of it, and it's online for everyone to see.

If it's a hoax, it's a DAMN good one.

There's scenes dealing a lot more with Biggs in the script--and there's other finished, deleted scenes dealing with him later as we know from the Special Edition ones. This seems perfectly legitimate, it was probably just disruptive to the flow of the movie to have this long gulf on Tatooine without action or movement while elsewhere there was all manner of stuff going on.

I remember reading that scene in the novelisation. I'm willing to accecpt that its genuine

The scene was in the script and the novelization, and the footage was shown several times at conventions and the like. This is the first time I've seen it, though. Nice bit of character development for Luke that would have been good to have in the actual movie, but I can understand why it would be cut for pacing.

Really dorky hat, though.

EDIT: Also, the chick was hot.

First time I've viewed this scene, but there is a picture from this scene in the Star Wars storybook.

According to SW Wiki, she ended up doing porn.

It's genuine. It has been taken from the Behind the Magic CD-ROM (released in 1998 iirc) which also contained the first scene shown of Luke watching the battle between the Tantive IV and the Star Destroyer and a rough cut of the Cantina sequence with a chick sitting in Han Solo's lap.

These things are all over the internet. They come from the DVDs, "Behind The Magic" CD-ROM, various "making of" vids, etc. Here's a few more:

Can you imagine if they left Darth Vader with his original voice.

On the other hand I actually liked Chewbacca's original voice: "That old man is mad."

Yep, that's old. It's on the BTM CD #2 (IIRC), along with several other cut scenes.

Yes, that's true (I mentioned those scenes above).

Luke seemed to be a bit of a loser on Tatooine. No wonder he wanted to leave.

Noble Ire · Post by **Noble Ire** » 2006-05-13 01:29pm

This is the first time I've seen it in full, and I must say, I'm quite impressed by its quality. Pacing was probably the only reason it was cut. I hope when the next inevitable set of DVDs is released, they include this and the other deleted scenes, remastered and all.

Yeah, I didn't like that. Gives too much of a "teen becomes superhero" fantasy story vibe.

The final movie without those scenes has Luke look like he was a bored farmboy who just didn't get the chance to have friends at all, due to the isolation of his home.. much better.

Actually the "teen becomes a superhero" is exactly the feeling I got from watching the original trilogy. Even without those scenes Luke was talking about all of his friends going off to academy and he did mention Biggs.

Now an isolated boy who didn't have any real friends is more Anakin's story.

She was also in Rocky Horror Picture Show and an episode of "Red Dwarf."

Darth Vader's non-James Earl Jones voice is hillarious. Especially how the helmet muffles it.

You are right, of course.

Still, I don't like to think that Luke was a loser, that's all.

That's just what makes him so much cooler when he becomes a bad-ass Jedi Knight, though.

Also on the BTM CD, is the FIRST filming of the cantina scene in London. The one in the movie today was refilmed in Los Angeles. In BOTH CASES, Han Solo shot first. So Lucas' claim that "he didn't have time" to make Greedo shoot first is complete bullshit.

The original cantina scene also features a hooker on Han's lap, as stated in the novelization.
