My Favorites from Rifftrax - Star Wars Episode VI - Return of the Jedi

- "Oh! How horrid!" - "A Gungan!"

[TheBelieveit1]

"It's a trap!"

This is no time to quote internet memes

[IgniteTheStars]

"Threepio?"

"Yes, Jedi Knight hog-tied by teddy bears?"

[nineteenct]

that little ewok punched me in the nads and took my lunch money

[rawjawbone]

two people got lightly beaten to death by teddy bears.

[devindenman]

I've lost the will to remember her...

[jerrytheham72]

I love all three of the original trilogy. I actually don't find the Ewoks to be that bad - yes, I would have prefered to have seen the Wookies (as was originally planned, I believe), but the Ewok stuff at least wasn't painful like Jar-Jar was. I think people react so badly to them because of the contrast from The Empire Strikes Back - dark questions of good and evil followed by cuddly teddy bears? Anyone would be confused...

[14852577]

Hey wes have you heard about what they did to the blu ray versions?

[UpSky2]

2:15 f - He uncovers his lips, because his lips needed to see the room more clearly.  ...No doubt.

[mystaker23]

2:40

More epic foreshadowing!

[EpicBeard815]

SLAAYERRRRRR!!!!

[NohbdyThere]

I take strong issues with the fact that Stormtroopers are portrayed as horribly inept humans. And the fact that everyone believes them to still be 100% clone forces. It's been 20 years and Kamino got royally fucked up.

[antiquecans69]

Porkins the White!!! Baaahahah!

[dignankumar]

"gently tap them to death" I have a headache from laughing at this!

[horaciosi]

Why do people think that Return of the Jedi is the black sheep of the original trilogy?

[dignankumar]

@horaciosi One word: Ewoks.

[horaciosi]

@dignankumar Really? just that?

[dignankumar]

@horaciosi Well, you can see above that Wes, who uploaded this video says the same thing. Pretty much anyone I've ever talked to that criticizes this movie mentions the same thing. There are the usual story flaws and childish dialogue in Jedi like all of the Star Wars films but the idea that the mighty Empire met its ultimate downfall thanks to stone-aged teddy bears is a bit too much even for sci-fi/fantasy. I liked Ewoks when I was 9, but as the years pass they seem more and more ridiculous.

[horaciosi]

@dignankumar The Ewoks NEVER defeted the empire, they were covering (?) the rebels so that they can get inside the sheld generator and destory it allowing the rebels piloting the ships could get inside the Death Star and blow it up.

Bottom Line: the rebels DID destoryed the empire, not the Ewoks.

Sorry for my shitty english

[dignankumar]

@horaciosi I didn't say the Ewoks defeated the Empire, not in the least, but it was due to their "covering" as you say that was the decisive element. If the rebels hadn't met the Ewoks we are led to believe all of their efforts would have been in vain. I agree they would have been a good distraction for the Imperial forces but the movie clearly shows the Ewoks winning the battle of Endor. "Gently tap them to death" LOL.

[trapadoored]

@dignankumar

-I think the ewoks were unintentionally a good idea. Lucas wanted to sell stuffed animals but blundered into representing that the smallest of the small can make a difference. The Empire didn't even give enough of a shit about ewoks to consider them as a threat , and they were crucial in winning the battle. It's like germs killing the aliens in war of the worlds. Although I do agree the ewok victory is implausible, but this is a star wars movie, not a Gettysburg documentary.

[dignankumar]

@trapadoored I have no problem with the "smallest making a difference" premise. As Yoda said, "Judge me by my size, do you?" Hobbits were heroes precisely because they were overlooked. So the formula is familiar and successful.

My problem with the Endor sequence is that armored stormtroopers with blasters are losing in combat to furry munchkins armed with tomahawks basically.

[dignankumar]

@trapadoored And I agree with you about Lucas wanting to sell stuffed animals. I imagine him using a pie chart to get the percentages equal for target demographics and inventing Ewoks specifically to fill the 3 to 5 year old slice. Palpatine appealed to the cranky prospector demographic apparently.

[dignankumar]

@horaciosi Maybe I don't hate the Ewoks as much as the doofus Imperial commanders...."Let's split up and chase these space bears into the forest away from our defensive position of the most important shield generator in the universe!"

[dignankumar]

And by the way, your English is better than many who grew up speaking it! Don't worry about it. :)

[MarcellusHellraiser]

Oh, and 10:20

SLAYER!

[MarcellusHellraiser]

8:23

I lolled hard.

[SAOrules]

5:41 "And they meet Porkins the White". Had me laughing for hours!

[Jerwold]

Being old, I utterly hate the prequels, of course.

I just watched all 6 movies, though was with a 10 year who was seeing SW for the first time. And he loved it all.

So, I guess if you didn't grow up with the original 3, then you can't get just how much the prequels, and Jar Jar, hurt.

[BrimstoneLandscapes]

@Jerwold I'm 17 and I first saw the prequels when I was about 11 or so. I liked them at the time, but now I hate em too.

[trapadoored]

@Jerwold

you don't need to be old to hate the prequels.

You just need to not suck as a person.

[Cpt50Caliber]

2 people liked that smirking little douchebag

[Steamrunner92]

@Reltsirk Justin Beiber was in this movie?!

[Orothan]

You know when cats act cute, you go to pet them and then they spaz & attack you. That's better acting then Hayden.

[ginko27]

I think Jedi was the best of the originals, with Empire being second. Has anyone read the story of the original Star Wars? the first screening was so bad they were going to sell the movie for stock clips. Lucas had his wife and another editor recut it, then add the effects. BECAUSE of editing, the film went on to be a sucess. Lucas can't direct or write. The good ONLY story he wrote was Star Wars and he has NEVER directed a great movie without help. Why don't chewie,and R2 tell luke about Yoda?

[worldends08]

Yes, editing Hayden was WRONG.

[SickBritKid]

See, I didn't think Return was all that bad...

Better than New Hope, that's for sure!

[Wes964]

@SickBritKid I really like Return, but I have one major problem with it which can be summarized in one word: Ewoks.

[SickBritKid]

@Wes964

I agree.

It really annoyed me that the original plan were Wookies and instead we got...Ewoks.

[DarthMercanto]

@Wes964 I couldn't agree more.

[harrietamidala1691]

@Wes964 Hey, I liked the Ewoks! They're cute fighting teddy bears!

[WhiteTiger225]

@Wes964 Really? I mean... British forces were spanked by barely armed African tribals since they underestimated them. It does happen in RL embaressingly so, and does cost people their lives.

[NaprTuber]

@Wes964

ROTJ is my favorite but the Ewoks are a abomination.

Originally Endor was the Wookie's home planet. Q.Q

LUUUUCCCCCAAAASSSS!!!! (Shakes Fist)

[TheITinFIT]

@Wes964 True, but I believe it was Simon Pegg who once said "Jar Jar Binks makes the Ewoks look like Shaft". Those teddy bears are definitely the lesser of two evils.

[MilesTailsProwerfan9]

@Wes964 I actually loved the Ewoks, but if I had to choose between them and Wookies... I think it's obvious which ones more bad ass... and the ultimate Furry! :D

[xPurpleDrinkx9001]

@Wes964 Ewoks arent as bad as people make them out to be.

[Ikarosus]

@SickBritKid New Hope was bad? Seriously?

What Star Wars movie do you like?

[SickBritKid]

@Ikarosus

Didn't say New Hope was bad, only that Return of the Jedi was still better than New Hope, though it couldn't hold a candle to Empire Strikes Back.

[SLPIFan]

@SickBritKid

No, I wouldn't say that's for sure.

[Midan]

[MattChrisF]

I remember when the Sarlacc Pit didn't have a beak. That's how old I am.

[ahdeath2007]

@MattChrisF I reckon it should be called the sarlacc beak rather than pit it having a beak kinda negates its pittiness

[KanaraMac]

"Oo-nee-tay!" means, "Start ruining the movie."

Seriously, what was wrong with the original song? Sure the puppets were a bit limited, but the song was great! It was neat and alien sounding, unlike the new version.

"Nice of the Vatican to lend them a couple of cardinals." Best Riff of the movie!

Seriously...someone should take the negatives from the original trilogy away from Lucas and put him in the crazy house

[UKISOCIETY]

FURDOM!!!

"Hey, who in the hell is this smirky douchebag?"

LOL!

[HeWhoDwellsInShadows]

I'm starting to see a pattern of you dissing the prequel trilogy. Get over your hate. It's lame after awhile.

[YTsDarkKnight]

@Wes964 Hey dude, lay off. He's got a fair point.

[14852566]

@HeWhoDwellsInShadows Why Mister Lucas! You're here at last! You have so much to answer for sir.

[HeWhoDwellsInShadows]

@14852566 Okay...

[Windclaw]

@HeWhoDwellsInShadows

In the words of Crow T. Robot; "I'm gona get a step ladder so you can jump up my butt!"

[HeWhoDwellsInShadows]

@Windclaw

I'm not trying to dis the videos! I was just giving my oppinion on the constant dising of the prequels! I just wanted a little more funny on other things, besides the prequel trilogy.

Also, just curious, what does that mean? Just curious, honestly.

[Sudenak]

@HeWhoDwellsInShadows The thing is that the prequels are easily the biggest abominations ever done to fans (yes, even more so than Last Airbender was). I don't even like Star Wars as is, but the utterly terrible prequels are insulting. Furthermore, they often caused inconsistencies in the entire series.

This Rifftrax didn't have a huge amount of anti-prequel jokes in it, either. Frankly, the prequels don't deserve anything short of contempt, and should be insulted 24/7.

[HeWhoDwellsInShadows]

@Sudenak There was only one thing I disagree with you on. The Last Airbender was much worse. If you havn't seen it, your one of the lucky ones. Saw it opening night. Looked like a carbinited Han Solo. It was that bad.

And, I don't know, when I see a Rifftrax, I'd rather see just the dissing of THAT movie. Not other ones. That's all. It's funny. Just want to see more dissing of the particular movie, and not another. Hopefully, that is understandable.

[Sudenak]

@HeWhoDwellsInShadows The thing is that I did see Last Airbender. With Airbender, it was the first one made; made by someone who we already see as on a steep decline in movie making, and with one of his key decisions to be to take out the humor since he thought it "interfered with the story".

With Star Wars, the expectation was that it'd be good. It was done by the guy who made up the Star Wars universe, and he had full control.

Btw: a hallmark of Rifftrax? Mentioning other movies in riffs.

[HeWhoDwellsInShadows]

@Sudenak I don't mean to sound ignorant, but what do you mean by your last paragraph in your last comment? I just don't understand it. Just asking for clarification, because I'm drawing a blank on what you're trying to tell me.

[Sudenak]

@HeWhoDwellsInShadows By paragraph do ya mean my two sentence youtube-has-a-character-limit last paragraph, or the Star Wars one?

[HeWhoDwellsInShadows]

@Sudenak The:

Btw: a hallmark of Rifftrax? Mentioning other movies in riffs.

line. Translation, plz? What were you trying to say there?

[Sudenak]

@HeWhoDwellsInShadows Ah, yeah, thought so.

Well, basically, all Rifftrax reference each other. Some might be so subtle that you don't even notice it. They may reference the movie itself, or they may reference a joke from it. The Dark Knight and The Room are probably the most referenced.

So, saying that you want to watch a Rifftrax for jokes only about that specific movie is kind of silly.

[HeWhoDwellsInShadows]

@Sudenak Not what I was going for, exactly. I'm just saying that with every rifftrax of star wars, I don't want to hear them dis the prequel series. And they do dis them in every episode. I mean, I can understand Dark Knight dissing another movie. That's okay. But to watch a full six episodes of Star Wars Rifftrax and hear them dis the prequels every single episode, you have to admit, can get a little annoying. I just wished they do it, at most, two or three times then dis the movie afterwards.

[Sudenak]

@HeWhoDwellsInShadows Well, given that the prequels are comedy gold, and that they've even used them as material for non-Star Wars movies...I don't know. I'm not even sure what you're on about, just that you feel passionately enough about it to spend a few hours arguing your case.

Just repeat to yourself: it's just a show, I should really just relax :3

[HeWhoDwellsInShadows]

@Sudenak When you're telling me to relax, I must remind you that you've been argueing, as well, on this 'comedy gold show'. And don't tell me to relax. I'm not angry. I'm not upset. So don't act like you're parent and I'm the child. It's stupid.

[Sudenak]

@HeWhoDwellsInShadows ...You never watched Mystery Science Theater 3000 to get that reference?

Ah well, I'm just gonna stop replying to you. You're taking this way too seriously, and if you didn't get MST3k ref #2, then I get the feeling you're never really going to "get" what I was saying.

[PunchSydeiron]

@Windclaw Which episode did he say that?

[NerdManReturns]

Both "Porkins The White" and "A Crystal Skull Preminison" made me LMAO.

[OmegaII]

The Riff that Leila couldn't remember her mother hours old thing bugs me. She was adopted by a couple, so the woman she knew as her mother wasn't Amadala, period.

[xen0bia]

@OmegaII She knows she was adopted. She's thinking of her REAL mother in that scene, she just doesn't know her identity. Quoted from Wookiepedia: "Although the Organas were not trying to hide the fact that Leia was adopted,[1] they never informed the Princess of her true parentage, nor did they reveal the existence of her twin brother.[18] However, during the short time between her birth and her mother's death,[2] Leia gained a faint memory of her mother as a beautiful and kind, yet sad woman"
