[QUOTE]Originally posted by Peregrinus: [QB] First off the "alert my star destroyer to prepare for my arrival" line was JEJ, but the line was cut from Star Wars. Lucas for some reason thought it fit better in that scene in Empire than Vader's terse originial "bring my shuttle" line. As for cut scenes... STAR WARS �Stuff of Luke working on vaporator, witnessing battle in orbit, going to Anchorhead, meeting Biggs. �Scenes showing more of "life in Mos Eisley", some of which made it into the Star Wars Holiday Special. �Some stuff on Yavin IV, both at the briefing an in the hangar. Mostly alternate angles and padding dialogue. EMPIRE �The whole "wampas breaking into the Rebel base" sequence. Too difficult to pull off at the time, and in Lucas' retrospect, would have cluttered up the battle too much. Only elements that survived to the final cut were the ice chunks falling on Artoo's head, and the door with the yellow-and-red warning sign on it that Han, Leia, and Threepio run past on their way to the [i]Falcon[/i]. �One or two little scenes on Dagobah, meant to show Luke's progress with his lightsabre. First, Yoda tosses a silver bar in the air and Luke misses. Yoda says "were you a Jedi, in seven pieces the bar would be". Later, just before his vision, Luke manages to cut the bar into four pieces before it hits the ground. There was also to be at least one scene showing him fighting some remotes, but I don't know if they actually got filmed. JEDI �An opening scene on Tatooine showing Luke building his new lightsabre in Obi-Wan's hut may or may not have been filmed, but it's made it into just about every other medium, from the radio play to the comic books. �A scene where Vader goes to see the Emperor, but is denied admittance by an officer. Vader force-chokes him, and the Royal Guards brandish their pikes to warn him to stop. The officer chokes out "it it the Emperor's command", and Vader stops and says something to the effect of "then I await his convenience". �An additional bit on Dagobah -- don't know if it was filmed or not -- where Obi-Wan tells Luke his mother took Leia to be raised as part of the royal family of Alderaan while he took Luke to Tatooine to be raised by his brother Owen. Needless to say, AotC has effectively ditched that notion. Did I forget anything? --Jonah [/QB][/QUOTE]
