Star Wars IV Opening Scene

[eihwazrune2000]

REBELS NEVER STOOD A CHANCE....!!!....DON'T MESS WIT DA EMPIRE BABY...!!!

[Maxibultje1]

no one thought: What if the come in a different door?

[shumpu123]

Hey guys, if you look up 501st legion on wookiepedia, it says that these stormtroopers who invaded the Tantive IV were the clones from the 501st legion, so the rebels were fighting Jango Fett ( the 501st were altered a tiny bit. They act just like jango, with the same skill etc. ). So that explains how all those rebels lost. They would've won if those were regular stormtroopers, i think.

[luis6079]

I thought Princess Leia abandoning her British accent during the course of the film was just her realizing she is no longer considered a loyal Imperial so she might as well cut the farce and talk normal. Or it was just the coke wearing off.

[Mr0wnage17]

why dont they make a remake of this to..



[extremechampion00]

@Mr0wnage17 Because there's no need for a remake. A couple of minor changes are OK, but a remake is out of the question.

[superbuserat]

The rebellion soldier in 1:31 loolks like Han Solo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[deadhobo16]

the only time the stormtroopers hit a target

[FlawdaFootball]

If I was on of these rebel troopers I would have immediately taken off my retarded helmet, yelled out my name, and pulled out a picture of my wife and kids. Suddenly the stormtroopers would be unable to hit me because I am now a named character with a backstory

[kknnllff]

prequels are awesome ,but this is awesome too.STAR WARS IS AWESOME

[grumpchong]

Even if those 3 minutes alone were the entire movie, it would still have been better than Annie Hall.

[Videogamer3692]

3 people prefer the prequels

[extremechampion00]

@Videogamer3692 Wrong, 3 people don't like Star Wars.

[ColdHotLyrics]

Haha 2:25 C3PO and R2-D2 all like "we're just taking a leisurely stroll." xD

[Mmmathers4]

Those troopers really can kill SOMETIMES.

[TheCarpie11]

Rebels blamed lag, shitty team and bad map for their loss.

[blackcujo]

@TheCarpie11 This made my day.

[SilverSinspawn]

Hey, since I can't find one, would someone mind making a mashup of C3PO saying "This is Madness" along with King Leonidas from 300 in the famous THIS IS SPARTA scene? It'd be much appreciated. Also, send it to me.

[nucleurfusion]

Whtas the name of the song at the beggining?

[Arballo420Cali]

wow - so for the 45th annieversary of Star Trek they give me a link for Star Wars! Dude, what a insult to fans of both sci-fi genres!

[HokutenKnigth]

Damn "Campers".

[bigblueballable]

@HokutenKnigth dam cod nerds

[HokutenKnigth]

@bigblueballable And proud of it.

[bigblueballable]

@HokutenKnigth lol

[th4Guy77]

FUCK CLONE WARS and the little kids that think it's the best star wars

[waivedwench]

@th4Guy77 They were just born in the wrong era. I pity them.

[Videogamer3692]

@th4Guy77 Don't blame the ignorant; blame the people who take advantage of it. It's not the little kids' fault; they don't know any better

[insight1337]

Stormtroopers, probably the ugliest uniform of all specops i'ver seen in movies,

[smalllions]

I cant wait til Lucas puts Jar jar in this scene in the special special editions.

[AssassinsScar]

Stormtoopers seriously should get aimbot.

[AidansVlog]

it just hit me... why are they wearing bike helmets? where doing some track work when they where attacked?

[Allsoproductions]

@AidansVlog appearently protecting the back of the head is more of a priority for them.

[KailowKrow]

[SPOILER] darth vader is lukes father [\SPOILER]

[TheDarthPineapple]

0:55 C3P0: this is madness! Leonidas: MADNESS? THIS IS SPARTA!

[tifforo1]

Please tell me that Darth Vader did not just put his hands on his hips.

[zakiemon]

wait, there was another robot behind C3PO and R2D2 that looked like a silver C3PO in the beginning. Never noticed that before.

[masterwhovian666]

the three stormtroopers that got killed hav returned as ghosts and disliked this video

[flipINcopOUT]

1:57 wtf why did they take out the wilhelm scream also, where are any of the screams from the actual movie?

[Lillronna]

when the stardestroyer comes up....it's so beutiful and powerful. i'm happy to be able watch the re-reales in 3D

[92af]

Star Wars is much better than The Dark Knight is

[bobbylee1557]

how do the rebels only kill like 3 stormtroopers

[OlaftheFlashy]

@bobbylee1557 lack of plot armour.

The stromtroopers infamous inaccuracy only occurs when their shooting at the films proganists. When their shooting at anybody else their marksmanship improves greatly.

[germancoesfeld]

As Vader arrive, that was the moment I love the sith:D ok he´s a dark jedi but it doesen´t matter

[Voxx055]

i wonder what would it look like now's movie effects, perhaps it would look awesome if done by Blizzard's World of Warcraft cinematic trailer or Battlefield 3 graphics

[trollingdouche]

Why didnt the rebel ship just pull the e-brake?

then the star destroyer would have flown right past them and they could have gotten away

[luis6079]

Where the hell was did this take place? I don't remember robots on the Enterprise?!

[MrGojiralee]

@luis6079 I think you have the wrong franchise, pal.

[Grivahri]

@luis6079 Notice that you have zero likes

[luis6079]

@Grivahri Thanks for noticing.

[trollingdouche]

The rebels have the dorkiest helemts in the history of sci fo movies

couldnt George Lucas got them something a little cooler than those bed pans?

[bennie128]

@trollingdouche i kinda liked the Rebel helmets

[sickpeople98]

C3PO: This is madness.

Vader: Madness? This is Empire!

[Batou3]

is this the original version?

[Dalek1230]

Best Opening Shot

Ever

[them413rkid]

2:25 - 2:28

"Um... sir, are we suppose to hit that robot walking across the hallway?"

"Soldier, just close your eyes and fire. If a laser hits him, it's meant to be."

:D

[TheRitchardgaleHater]

0:55 C3 PO "This is madness

0:56 R2 D2 "THIS IS SPARTA!!"

[jimmyupthemountain]

The rebels would have probably kicked ass if they had machine guns instead of those stupid ray guns.

They could have easily killed every storm trooper that walked thru the door

[TheRealBitterbub]

@jimmyupthemountain Do you even know an actual thing about Star Wars other than from the movies nub?

[gros186]

SCENE JUST BEFORE LANDING IN NORMANDY, SHOWN ON THE BEACH, THE MOVIE Saving Private Ryan.

THIS WAS THE SCENE THAT CAUSE STRESS IMPACT AND ADRENALINE IN THE MINDS OF A WHOLE GENERATION OF CHILDREN AND ADULTS.

THIS MOVIE SHOWS AND LET SEE THE FACES OF THE IMMEDIATE ATTACK, IMPOTENCE AND COURAGE BY ON THE EVIL EMPIRE AND ITS FORCES APPROACH.

[ColeTrain2731]

First time I watched Vader making his grand entrance at 2:34 I was terrified of him. A short time later, he became my favourite villain.

[meshmaker55]

Does anyone notice that these rebels have terrible aim, and some of them are RIGHT in front of the door!!!

The rebels only manage to shoot 3 stormtroopers

The imperials shoot at least 15

[DelfinoDelphis]

@meshmaker55 Well they are probbably just deck crew, tought to run the ship, not fire :P

[callofdutyplayer4]

... All I could think of at 0:54 was: "No. THIS. IS. SPARTA!!!"

[Unitor677]

@callofdutyplayer4 lol me2

[Dimentio152]

thumbs up if cracked sent you here

[concordat]

Where's my Wilhelm Scream?

[BigFatLoserDude]

How in the world is Lucas Allowing you-tube to host these unauthorized videos, without him sueing someone???

[Iamoldenough92]

I know this is a classic and all. But I wouldn't mind seeing a remake. Some of the effects are just an eye sore to watch now.

[romxxii]

@Iamoldenough92 there have been 2 different re-masterings already, each one improving upon the FX.

[E1Ducko]

i nostalgia'd hard

[starfighter673]

i was 2 years old when this came out

i sat with my mom and sister in the theater and i didnt move one muscle

my mouth and eyes were open wide as my my mother told me

after that my childhood started off with the most incredible trilogy ever.

the prequels r cool too because i like the story in these epic movies

[RainPoetry]

Imagine being a 7 or 8 year old and seeing this when it first came out. EPIC. And 2:34 ? The greatest entrance of all time!

[KonChul]

Best opening to a movie ever!

[lsc9x]

I saw this when I was 6 back in 1977. We waited 4 hours to get into a single shitty 1 screen movie theater because everyone we knew said this movie was great. When I saw this scene I was sitting in the second seat from the left in the front row. i wasn't just blown away, I wondered how they shot it in space, and WTF did they get the ships? This was movie magic, and it's why I am doing my own movie now. Star Wars was the SHIT!

[spyhunter178]

is this 77 or 97/04 version? I would love to find an original version, myself.

[MrGanamae]

@spyhunter178 why not try the Adywan Version from 2008? look for the trailer?! :)

[helloswallow2601]

My father told me the scene that a star destroyer flying was "very astonished" when he watched in 1978.

[newfieboy58]

@helloswallow2601 I saw the original in theaters in '77 and at that time every space movie ever made had small ships like the one the princess is in. Seeing that star destroyer coming over the screen was intense. The size of the ship didn't end. Everyone in the audience knew right then, this was going to be an epic movie.

[lordgluzman]

Why they make storm troopers shiity? After all they are trained soldiers not like a olg guy that doesnt have inof money for a viagra and needes to rebal against the Empire that they can make them legal again.

[HarryPotter87]

This scared me half to death when I watched it!! Someone wanted me to hold onto her.

[EdikShepherd]

Ah man, I wanted to see the part where Darth is all like "Shut up bitch, you're a traitor and a member of the rebel alliance."

So awesome. Vader knows how to handle his hoes.

[JandA75cent]

you' re telling me those 30 guards couldn't stop the stormtroopers from coming through a door only a foot wide?

[smulinsa]

bästa filmer som finns,kommer aldrig att finnas dess like

[goomba25]

One of the DVD's had a commentary from a famous direction that sums it up best: You see the second ship, and it just goes on and on and on...

I've watched this 3 times, and I still got tricked 3 times into thinking the star destroyer was about to end.

[MegaGrane]

Best opening scene of all time. Especially the shootout when the Storm Troppers breach the door.

[zocurtis]

What the hell was 3pO and R2D2 doing? Who runs across shoot out?

[lykezomfg11]

anyone ever what the point of helmets were?

I dont think some plastic let alone armor will stop you from a headshot.

[AnKassi]

I think its Plastoid mixed with Cortosis!!

[easyworship]

One of the best, if not the best opening scenes to a movie EVER!!!!

[tiburonrojo89]

May the force be with you...

[SgtDavid16]

best film in history..legend...

[bluemario73]

i used to like empire in battlefront 2 but than i realized that they had a old man a dumb bounty hunter that cant shoot for crap and i guess vaders good

[MrShadowTrooper]

Age means nothing when you can control the dark side of the force, ah ha ha ha ha!

[CamusTheDark]

Stormtroopers are badass. Whenever I used to play Star Wars Battlefront, I chose the Empire about 95% of the time.

Don't get me wrong, the rebels are fine to, but I prefer the more "professional" style the Empire has : /

[glenarth]

no rebels suck. they just won cause the heroes are on their side. play empire at war and conquer the galaxy!

[TomthatiscalledTom]

I remember seeing this as a child in 1978 on the big screen. It blew me away. It still does

[ReconOneEleven]

I wish I could take a DeLorean back to opening night. I'd also show Lucas Episode I in an attempt to change the future.

[otherjoe1234]

@ReconOneEleven

uhh, i'd be worried that Lucas would fall in love with Jar-Jar and make the movie sooner. hehe, he was Lucas' favorite character i think.

[ReconOneEleven]

@otherjoe1234

I like to think young Lucas and today's Lucas are two very different people. Maybe I should show him that Red Letter Media review with Plinkett just in case...

[otherjoe1234]

@ReconOneEleven

i think George Lucas was always just a kid who never really grew up. i mean, who else would've thought of things like Star Wars and Indiana Jones? it takes a powerful imagination.

[Nabo00o]

@otherjoe1234

He based it on existing things.

Starswars have existed since the birth satellites.

[hatekleemann11]

ah nothing beats a classic

[rrccll7]

I like rebels better

[LookAtTheWookie]

The Rebels suck. Why are they wearing bed pans on their heads?

Plus they run like pussies as soon as the storm troopers open up the doors.

They are probably Obama supporters

[sonic25303]

Ya Me too they wn the war anyway so the Storm troopers suck

[MagoDeTusPesadillas]

Stormtroopers are really fantastic!!!

[8comicbookman8]

pure, simple classic.

[Ralph64]

Agreed. Better than goat porn.

[monkeynuts76]

i like goat porn

[achilleskid820]

my fav battle, i like the rebel uniforms

[TroupeDeMarine]

me too!

[JohnRiemannSoong]

C3PO and R2D2 seem a bit like Rosencrantz and Guildenstern in this movie -- they mostly comment on the environment, and though they're an integral part of the plot, they're patients, not agents

[dashman70]

The first three minutes that captivated the world.

[dashman70]

The first three minutes that captivated the world.

[sirgarence]

Indeed. I saw this in the cinema as a 7 year-old and pretty much everything else in my life took a back-seat for quite a while.

[bonnolog]

THIS IS MADNESS!

[JohnRiemannSoong]

no, this is Star Wars!

[shooshooshooshooter]

lmao

[DarthChess]

No, THIS IS SPARTA!!!!

[Offspring1014]

well, there are ways to copy or convert dvds so you can take stuff out (check out my video on here)

I'm not sure about the cuting and pasteing from sites. Unless you put a bunch of youtube videos together.

[sarahkb7]

Hi, am a Star Wars fan too. I have had a go at making my own opening scroll sequence's with my pc (click my name to view my vids), but I don't know how to import moving dvd video. I see you know how to, so could you please tell me how you did it? :)

[Offspring1014]

Hey, I'm sorry, I don't really know what you mean, "moving dvd video".

Do you mean stuff directly off a dvd?

[sarahkb7]

Yes, thats right. Are there sites where you can cut 'n paste Star Wars scenes from, or is there some clever trick to copying the dvd video and bypassing the anti-copy protection?
