LOOSEN UP!!

[DropPodFullOfPonies]

Tyree figured that he could survive by assuming the "water landing" position.

Tyree was wrong.

[DropPodFullOfPonies]

@osiud 9. big flashing sign saying "no vent here; try another trench" 10. a kindergarten full of kids and their pet bunnies placed in front of vent 11. a Quiznos restaurant adjacent to the trench to distract hungry X-wing pilots like that fatass Porkins

[NaomiChanX]

Gold 5 is a douche.

[Felamine]

Gold 5 should definitely have loosened up. He was following Gold Leader too closely, ultimately allowing Darth Vader to get close enough to shoot Gold Leader down.

Way to get your squadron destroyed, Gold 5.

[ATMofAnubis]

Should have loosened up.

[alfonzo2020]

2 rebels didn't stay on target

[cannotmakeascreename]

It's a trap!

[MoonIMover]

Noob should have stayed on target.

[LarryStar2]

cover me porkins

[killpops]

"It came from..behind" - Thats what she said?

[comeonfhqwhgads1]

It would have been better if the rebel alliance just shot a RC missile from Yavin 4, and just directed it towards the 2-meter hole. Even if the missile was intercepted and destroyed, they can always build another one, and absolutely no lives will be wasted. But the Rebel Alliance chose the cheap way, meaning that they care more about money than they do with lives.

[Trumuzicfan192]

@comeonfhqwhgads1 Just Like The War In The Middle East Today, Caring Only Bout There Oil Scum Or Shit.

[GeoffLe0pard]

You know what he should've done? Stayed on target.

[DarkTakoshi]

IT CAME FROM BEHIND!

[B1Studios]

It came from... behind!

[familyguyblows]

1 person didn't stay on target!

[aaron3300]

Fuck Y Wings, X Wings And TIE Interceptors Are The Most Badass

[balasuar]

Why does he say "I copy Gold Leader" when it was "Gold Five" doing the talking?

[shock1974]

@balasuar The rest were dead, so Gold Five by that time was the acting Gold Leader.

[DropPodFullOfPonies]

@balasuar - Once Tyree and Hutch/Dutch (Gold Leader) were toast, Gold Five's battlefield promotion to Squadron Leader kicked in. "Congratulations, kid, you're in the big leagues now! Enjoy this nice, bright bullseye painted on your ass." *PEW PEW KABOOM*

[balasuar]

1 person got taken from behind.

[AdMaker3000]

If not 0:34, 0:33

[AdMaker3000]

If u look at 0:34, they also came from beside! :)

[admiraldma]

In a group of films that have many brilliant sound effects, this clip contains my favourite. The bit at 0:35, when Gold 5 is hit and his port engine breaks of, and then his Y wing explodes. that is awesome!! Y wings are my favourite rebel fighter because they are the underdogs!!

[Gasoline85]

@admiraldma I agree. Y-wings are awesome!

[KODAKCAR4]

why didnt they just slow down and the ties flew ahead of them and they just shot and destroyed the ties

[JohnRambo87AB]

@KODAKCAR4 A better strategy would be to enter the trench closer to that hole they had to hit, making them less exposed to the TIE fighters. And even better while doing this, the X-Wings should fly above the trench and fire at any TIE fighters trying to enter the trench.

[roderik1990]

@JohnRambo87AB The trench offers valuable amounts of cover, flying above the trench would make them sitting ducks. More effort in preventing the TIE figters from entering the trench would've been preferable tho. (using ships that can fire backwards would already have been a significant improvement IMO)

[Rendarg]

@JohnRambo87AB the surface of the deah star is littered with thousands of laser batteries. thats why they use the trench.

[shock1974]

Imperial officer tells Tarkin: "We've analyzed their attack and there is a danger". Rebel General: "Empire doesn't consider a small fighter to be a threat." Well, then why are there huge fucking laser cannons in the trench firing at the rebel fighters? Obviously the Empire knew the small fighter threat, hence the guns defending the narrow trench. Obviously the rebels knew small fighters were considered a threat, they had the plans. My only annoyance with the DS battle.

[StephenColbert27]

It was kind of cool of how even though he knew he was about to die, he calmly reported in and told the situation, RIP tyree, hutch, and Gold 5

[jackkillian2079]

@StephenColbert27 Well it shows that he knew his fate and also that it was more important to report then attempt to try and escape. Gold 5 was Pops the 20 year veteran pilot. That may have been why.

[MrMrannoying]

! person didnt stay on target

[AdMaker3000]

@MrMrannoying lol

[hbkryme]

1 person loosened up!

[countblah31]

Shop at target....

[wyatt8740]

I have the original 1977 (non special) edition of star wars. Good movie... Good movie.

[ZeroMalarki]

I used to have to say this to myself all the time whenever I was drunk pissing in the urinal.

[Cpapa18]

they came from... behind - warcraft 3 gyrocopter quote

i never knew where it came from :)

[leo11lim]

tragic but funny why can't 123 have a tragic funny scene it won't cause tension

[Nat0nator]

Stay on target... stay on target... oh they're targeting me? Uh-oh. *moves off target*

[Plausiblesarge]

They came from...BEHIND!

[landraiderares]

@Plausiblesarge - I can remember reading the SW novelization by Alan Dean Foster - he extends Gold Five's demise to a damaged, slow plummet into the Death Star and gives him more of a doomed man's soliloquy after "lost Tyree, lost Hutch...they came from behind". This movie clip always seems a bit too sudden and jarring in comparison, but your mileage may vary (especially if you dislike ADF).

[ChillaxinGamer]

Save at Target!

[seijurohikore]

its a trap!

[seijurohikore]

its a trap!

[thaboss32]

they came from...behind *BWOOOOOOO* 'splosion

[boyinthedrain]

Gold 5 should have been the squad leader. Gold Leader was totally ineffective

[derworfnet]

@boyinthedrain Yeah, note how Gold Leader was all acting cool for most of the time - but when the first singns of trouble appeared he suddenly panicked. How come someone like that gets to command an squadron?

[boyinthedrain]

@derworfnet

Gold Leader needed be told to stay on target?

And remember it is Gold Leader in the briefing who says "What good are snub fighters going to be against that?"

He said that IN FRONT OF THE OTHER PILOTS!

Way to build confidence.

I bet he was Mon Mothma's nephew or something

[dizzygemini86]

one of my favorate scenes!!..this guy is a idiot! well at least luke showed them hows it done

[TalonMercenary]

oh yeah so he can say stay on target to the others but when they die does he stay on target himself? no the bald idiot runs away lol

[SecretAgentDouble000]

It came from.....behind....

*Gets anally raped by gay stormtroopers."

[MichaelJHuman]

I love the various dialog from the fighter pilots. Another great one is 'Almost there. Almost there.'

[FIREFLY6789]

who's target?

and why should i stay on her?

[infenrape100]

stay on target, stay on target, STAY ON TARGET!

[Smithers6650]

"Stay on target!"

"I have to pee!"

"Stay on target!"

"My tooth hurts!"

[Withbleedthrewteeth]

lol since when does the YGO abridged fans start converting to star wars videos?

"watches episode"

Dammit Bakura stay on friggin target!

[Sambucacat]

Why don't the fighters have deflector shields? 

[roguelead72]

@Sambucacat They do but they were set to be stronger in the front.

[landraiderares]

@roguelead72 - The one thing that puzzles the nitpicker in me is that the Rebels never even bothered to hire a few extra Yavin Base janitors to man the Y-Wing ion cannons in the rear. That's like flying a WW2 bomber without turret gunners. Then I justify it by thinking "they were likely only expecting turbolasers on the surface, not pursuit TIE craft"...which is still boneheaded strategy, but hey, it adds to their underdog role.

[roguelead72]

@landraiderares It was explained somewhere that only 2 of the Y-Wings had a working Ion Cannon(including the one that survived), besides I think this was the version with the forward fixed ion cannon.

[roguelead72]

@landraiderares I knew this took awhile but there is an explanation for this, these are the single seat version with the forward fixed ion cannon. Besides it was explained in some book I read, that the ion cannon was a maintenance nightmare, only 2 of the Y-Wings had working ones.

[AlexGlogerTV]

look wat hapens wen u stay on target.! O_O

[stoopidusernamething]

stay on taget!

oh no

stay on friggin target!!!

we are royaly screwed

friggin stay on target!!!!

[Diamhea]

always sounded like they come from behind to me

[And502]

bloody hell,who hiderd these pilots? :/

[Gaalsien]

How do you not stay on target? It's a straight trench.

[HoobaloobaFilms]

When my list of 'things to do' are too distracting, lately I keep thinking about this seen in Star Wars. Stay on Target or get blown up.

[snipeefox]

THEY CAME FROM BEHIND!!!!!!!

[toastertomattoe]

Thay came from behind!!

[Sambucacat]

That's what the Dwarf Gyrocopter pilots say when they die!

[WeeWeeJumbo]

@Sambucacat

WE HAVE LIFTOFF

(now let's go slaughter some destros)

[taranchula97]

That's what she said

[JeffL1313]

Stay on Bloody Target!!!

[yarrderp]

you must use the celtic guardian!

the fate of the world depends on it!

[Ceylon205]

YES

[zangetsumizu]

@yarrderp yugi u should totally hug him

[Stayontargetprod]

Something is very suspicious about this... Hmm...

[petrospetra]

When everyone else dies, he does not 'try to get the heck out of there,' he flees the trench so that he can get a warning out to the other Rebel pilots. The trench was obviously blocking communication. That's why Luke knew to expect Vader's attack when he makes his attack run.

[plutotree123]

@petrospetra He gets his other wingman killed. "Stay on target" *other guy dies* "well im out of here". and i highly doubt the trench would block communications. all the fighters were in contact with the rebel base that had a planet between them.

[landraiderares]

@petrospetra - Good observation...the DS's magnetic shielding and megatons of electrical conduits would likely make their comms transmissions as staticky as a worn-out AM pocket radio.

[romas1995]

Get fuck yourselves douchebag Trekkie bitches !

[CE11SCAN]

oh no i just shat ma pants STAY ON TARGET

but the toilets durrty STAY ON TARGET LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[LessThanCool]

[SecretSpetsnaz]

Stay On Target, Stay On Target!
