  • This will always be my favorite fight scene if not perhaps favorite scene in the entire saga. The emotion is so high and music score is perfect! It's such a lesson in that sometimes simple is better. There's no over the top fighting, explosions or fancy moves. Just pure simple emotion and you feel ever second of it.

  • Vader "yo chill bro"

  • question: luke is enraged, his skill falters HOW THE F*CK could vader, an experienced swordfighter lose?

  • @notenufdaka vader was never that good in swordfight, he lost his arms and legs so depuite tecnology it wasn't the same, even the manipulation over force, anakin may have been a prodigy of the force, but his mechanical dependence balanced him... and luke enraged meant he fought with the advantage that siths use in fight... emotion, anger, etc, that makes you stronger, Luke only realised he was following the path to the darkside in the end when vader fell and he saw both had lost he's right hand.

  • the funny things in star wars is "Anakin can't keep his arms for shit"

  • luke won because vader tripped, he was also old and didn t have the stamina he once had, but think about the other outcome, if vader won then luke was not worthy of being a sith so he would have died

  • Thumbs up if you get chills at 0:16

  • The new SW movies suck compared to this one. This is my absolutely fav of all six, a true masterpiece that every man with love for fantasy and Science Fiction MUST watch!

  • No lame flips and over the top choreography... just great music and emotion. That's all you need.

  • Completely agree. Best scene in the saga. And I definitely got chills - for the whole of it. And who cares if their technique of lightsaber fighting was less advanced back when they made this, than for the prequel trilogy? Fill that part in with your imagination, and look at the story and the acting, because it is brilliant. And listen to the music. Yeah... Chills, definitely.

  • Best. Scene. In. The. Saga. <3

  • Darth is probubly thinking whao he's a spaz

  • Luke looks like a blind-folded nine year old swinging at a piñata when he uses the lightsaber. It's pretty annoying after having seen how skilled Anakin was in episode 3, that Luke can kick his ass after having "trained" for two months.

  • @JP888481 more like a year, it had been one full year since they dueled on Bespin

  • @dk2853

    Whatever, I was being sarcastic when I said, "two months". Either way, it's a continuity error. Count Dooku, Sidious, & Yoda were still kicking ass as old men, so why can't Vader? I know Vader's crippled, but still. He's the chosen one with 40 years of experience behind him. He should be able to handle a rookie, unless he subconsciously is taking it easy on Luke out of sentimental feelings.

  • @JP888481 The sentimentality may be part of it, also Luke was enraged by the dark side, remember how powerful Anakin became when he started using his anger? But losing all his limbs cut his power by at least half, Luke is just as powerful as Ani in the force and the only reason he beat him here was because he used the dark side emotions

  • Hey, fanboys, I grew up with the 1997 special edition since I was born in 1994, and if it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have become a star wars fan. And, to be honest, the CG worked great for the action scenes, but it sucked for everything else, and I prefer the new end song over the original, but I still want Sebastian Shaw, I don't want Hayden Christensen. I also still want Han to shoot first, and not greedo.

  • Anyone know the name of the song?

  • @Ladi3sman217roadbloc I's called Final Duel.

  • @Ladi3sman217roadbloc On the soundtrack I have, this is at the fifth minute of a 10-minute track called "The Battle Of Endor II (Leia Is Wounded - The Duel Begins & Overtaking The Bunker & The Dark Side Beckons & The Emperor's Death)"

  • A scene I hope doesn't get changed I know Lucas knows he shouldn't, this scene will be perfect in 50 years when it's as old as The Longest Day

  • There's nothing like the original style of these movies not that choppy blue ray crap they screwed up on. Yay go original xD

  • "No! No! No!' NOOOOOOOOOO!!! MY FAVOURITE SCENE! At least you'll never take away the magic I feel every time I see this fight.

  • Dude fariaevolution1990 xbox sucks it over heats easlily

  • Hmmmmmm my phone is acting strange

  • The never ending battle between father and son. ;_;

  • Cherish this scene! It won't be long before Lucas releases a version where Vader is dubbed by Hayden Christiansen and the fight is dragged for 10 minutes with 100% use of cgi models and backgrounds.

  • Vader:Luke, come to the dark side!

    Luke:Never!

    Vader:i give you a Xbox 360

    Luke:Okay, when i start?

  • That`s my favorite part

  • honestly?

    I'd pay to see this in 3D.

  • when i was little the first time I seen this movie and this scene i was like

    " O_O...ooooooohhhhh .......he cutted off his hand,now.....''

  • This dude protects his sister!

  • hmmm episode 4-6 lightsaber fights more aggresive n straight foward episode 1-3 lightsaber fights more graceful and fast on a side night i love all star wars movies deal with it

  • star wars= a great idea and proof of imagination.

    ruined by time, shitty acting, shitty swordplay, and predestined conflicts.

    saved by Natalie Portmen, Yoda, and the Force

  • This scene STILL gives me chills.

  • This theme is just so powerful. When I am in a bad or somber mood. I think of this.

  • I had a little childrens book for return of the jedi and i remember that it explained this scene so well telling how luke was using hate to fight vader and then realized what he was doing and didn't finish the duel.

  • I get it...you can't comprehend or accept that a point of view outside of what you believe exsists. You cannot fathom that someone can truely be unbiased and love all of it in equal messure. But those are the facts and you should accept them.

  • Because the fact of the matter is. I am a lover of Star Wars...purely and simply, I do not hate a certin part of it simply because it does not meet my unreasonable standards. There is nothing about Star Wars that I hate or find unworthy, not one damn thing.

  • @TheRevanchists what do you think about that new revan book?

  • @MaadDawg1 I personally can't wait. I've been praying for the end of the story ever since KOTOR. And now I will finally have closure. I will have no reason to play TOR at all. Because as much as I love Star Wars I'm just not that big of an MMO player. I don't like paying so much for a game.

  • @TheRevanchists how did you feel about the force unleashed 2?

  • @MaadDawg1 I didn't play it but that Series never really interested me.

  • You all are so biased it sickens me. It's fair to say that I am MORE of a fan then you...simply BECAUSE I love ALL of Star Wars equally. I refuse to belittle or degrade any part of it. I know as much Star Wars lore as you can possibly know without reading all the EU personally...I've read the entire SW Timeline since the Big Bang twice, I've spent days at a time studying and memorizeing as much of the EU as humanly possible. So dont you dare call me an idiot, a moron or less of a fan.

  • man, i love this scene. The soundtrack is perfect.

  • watching the lightsaber duels in the prequels, then watching the duels in the original trilogy, I can only think "arthritis is a motherfucker".

  • The original movies rock. They are awesome, they kick ass. But the prequels, make them feel soooo much better. This movie was meant to be a saga. And it is. All movies connect with each other in such an amazing way. Every episode makes you think of a particular scene and vice-versa. When I watch this scene I think of episode 3. When I watch episode 3 I think of episode 6. It's unexplainable. It's Star Wars.

  • Thumbs up for anyone who got th chills at 0:31

  • @garrettgrefe14 i use to cry at 0:31 when i was a child. i still do

  • @garrettgrefe14 haha fuck yes!

  • @garrettgrefe14 yes yes yes !!! thats the good feeling music gives it - to me its like its divine or holy

  • @garrettgrefe14 you bet... incredible the way it gets you into the fight and the end of this saga.

  • Beautiful scene. Very moving, especially with that music.

  • Very nice

  • The music in this scene is just amazing, it always gives me the chills.

  • @Ozziguy6 same here.

  • I feel like Luke's lightsaber is truly the best, it seems to outshine all others.

  • Made in China

  • i love the music at 0:28

  • @MrRecon246 so true... best part indeed, so epic.

  • Comment removed

  • I got pissed when the clip ended lol.

  • Please! Can someone tell me what this song is called!!! It is so good but I don't know the title!

  • @TheNiceAnders into the death star

  • @TheNiceAnders Did you find the mp3? I only found a mp3 thats goes 8 Minutes or so is there not a MP3 with just this theme alone? :(

  • 240p

    0:14 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

  • Comment removed

  • i think the most emotional scene was when obi wan yelled out to anakin YOU WERE MY BROTHER ANAKIN...I LOVED YOU!

  • @Sim249 the songs called The Return of the Jedi

  • now THATS an emotional fight. not like in star wars 1-3 pf :P

  • everyone felt that cry he let out ,powerful!

  • "gooooood"

  • @Sim249 Jedi Outcast:Soundtrack-Final Duel with Desaan write in youtube. Wonderfull.

  • In Sovjet-Rusia Vader owns Luke!

  • I'm sick of everyone bashing the Prequals. We get it they'll never live up to your outrageous standards of film making. I love all 6 movies equally...but does that make me less of a fan then you? Not by a long shot.

  • @TheRevanchists I'm glad I'm not the only one who love ALL Star Wars movies. :)

  • @TheRevanchists the prequels ruined everything that the originals have set up. watch redlettermedia review for reasons why

  • @raedenjay That guy acts like such a moron about this review I dont even take him seriously. But regardless I always enjoy them...why? because I simply like Star Wars, this "review" made by some moron who dont take it seriously wont change that.

  • @TheRevanchists You an me both. :)

  • @TheRevanchists Star Wars just unfortunately sucks due to huge plot holes. It's an awesome concept, but it needs a reboot with a lot better of a primary story line.

  • @TheRevanchists

    Actually, if you can't see the superiority of the original triology, then yes, you are less of a fan.

    Or at least you don't appreciate the things that the old ones had that the prequals didn't.

    I like the prequels, because I grew up with them. I even like Jar Jar Binks. But they're not even CLOSE to being equal to the old ones.

  • @TheRevanchists It just makes you an idiot.

  • @TheRevanchists It has nothing to do with comparing them to the first three. They suck all on their own.

  • @TheRevanchists Yes it's such an outrageous standard of film making. You know, making them at least as good as the originals. We're so impossible to please /sarcasm

  • @redvision350 Yes...so impossible that you attempt to deny their exsistence just because they weren't made the same way as your standards. Obviously you people fail to grasp that just because YOU think it sucks don't mean EVERYONE thinks it sucks. Just because they don't meet your "standards" don't mean their shitty movies. It's that simple, you just refuse to budge from your biased little pedastles that you place yourselves upon because you think you know how movies should be made.

  • @TheRevanchists " you know how movies should be made" I'm glad we can agree on something.

  • @redvision350 Wow....you're arrogance and sense of self importance disgusts me.

  • @TheRevanchists ur absolutely orsum and i wish all the rest of the fans shared that point of view :D

  • @TheRevanchists

    It makes you more of a fan than most people

  • @TheRevanchists i second that

  • original trilogy is best film make ever.. new trilogy is lot of efects and and nothing more..

  • the saber duelling is a little barbaric indeed but that's good as it's meant to reflect the fact that Luke has released his anger and is drifting close to the dark side, and it takes Vader by surprise.

  • I'm surprised that both Luke and Vader didn't simultaneously double over with laughter at themselves. They look like Jedi lumberjacks.

  • At 0:15 was darth vader trying to say she will die?

  • @MrDarkblaze81 he is saying that leia (lukes sister, and vaders daughter) will become a sith

  • This scene is emotional, but you should of included the scene where Luke is sitting with the shadow on one side of his face, and the light on the other. That part is amazing to me every time.

  • Continuity fail. A lightsaber is supposed to cut through anything. At 0:42 and on it clearly doesn't cut through the railing. God Damn Lucas if you are going to edit things for contuinity at least get your lightsabers consistent (also take out the blood from the cantina scene slice by obi wan, lightsabers don't cause bleeding).

  • WHOA I just noticed something. In Empire Strikes Back, when Luke and Vader are dueling, Vader forces Luke out onto a "catwalk" structure. At 0:40, thanks to the camera angle, the scene is briefly recreated; a narrow walk way over a bottomless chasm, except now Luke is on the offensive.

  • 36 people got killed by luke

  • I have one problem with this scene in spite of it being the most fantastic scene of all six movies - Luke's hiding spot was friggin' terrible!

  • @Blink182link64 well then you don't understand he used Mind trick on vader. makes him invisible to him. but his feeling's was slowly giving away his spot until his anger takes over and reveals him.

  • @Melenonel Ha ha!! Yeah, I got ya. I just always thought that was funny, but of course I understand why truly happened.

  • @Blink182link64 hehe well I had the same thought as young "uhm.. he is under the god damn stair.. can't he see him really?? later in the years after hearing what hapends.. aaaaahhhhh my bad ^^

  • can any one tell me what the name of the song is and where i can get it

  • 4,5, an 6 are so damn epic! 1,2, an 3 on the other hand are alright but i love m all

  • I was more sad when the whole Star Wars movies ended, then when Harry Potter ended..

  • Best fight hands down I wish somebody with money would remake this scene with the prequel trilogy fighting

  • @vorido nooooo that would ruin it! the prequel fights should be remade to look like this one!

  • 0:30 - :051 this was a revenge for all Jedi who Vader killed

  • Name of this music ?

  • @skony1234 on the soundtrack its called: Final Duel / Into the Death Star

  • definetly the best fight in all of star wars the prequels lack emotion in the fights for more meaningless action where the originals had the emotion factor that made them great

  • EPIC MOVIE ! EPIC SOUNDTRACK !

  • Vader!!!

    nNOOOOOOOoooo! D:

  • Harry Potter has a lot in common with Luke, orphaned then they go off to learn how to fight the evil enemy, and then they find their father is the enemy who wants to kill them, (see deathly hallows).

    Maynbe no one is old enough to know?

  • @ANDYCHAT500 I wonder if people will get pissed because of a spoiler like that...

  • @ANDYCHAT500 pretty sure Harry's father never wanted to kill him dude..

  • Knock him out the box luke, knock him out! Knock him out the box luke, Knock him out!

  • For me the most emotional scenes in all of Star wars are(in no particular order)

    1. This scene above

    2. Vader killing the emperor

    3. Vader's birth at the same time as Padme's death

    4. The whole Order 66 sequence

    5. When Obi wan yells to the burning Anakin "YOU WERE MY BROTHER ANAKIN"

  • @rhymenoceros3303 vader's birth was lame. NOOOOO!!!

  • @rhymenoceros3303 #1 and #2: Excellent. Scratch out #3, cause that shit is just terrible. I believe the 5 seconds where Anakin walks into the jedi temple and that single line delivered by obi wan are the ONLY salvageable parts from the new episodes. How come no binary sunset? No collapse of the Hoth defense? Yoda lifting the x-wing? 

  • @rhymenoceros3303 I must admit that's a pretty good list. If I was to come up with one I would need to think that shit through! but props to your list...

  • @rhymenoceros3303 how did padme give birth to vader? so anakin is the husband and the son?

  • @jordon321 They both had a bond but in order to survive Vader unknowingly tapped into that bond and actually sucked the life right out of her thats why the droids couldn't understand why she was dying and instead just said she lost the will to live

  • @rhymenoceros3303 I understand that, your comment on #3 was just a little confusing, i thought you meant birth literally, and said Vader instead of Luke and Leia

  • @jordon321 Its okay but you gotta admit that makes Padme's death all the more tragic and it was truly Vaders fault for her death

  • @rhymenoceros3303 Vader is Anakin the child that was born was Luke.

  • @BigAlzToyStore I mean during the movie when Anakin was reborn as Vader while Padme died after giving birth to Luke and Leia

  • @rhymenoceros3303 scenes from ROTS? is this some sick joke? what a nutjob you are. please never procreate

  • @Cmontferrat Well that's your opinion bud, I liked all the Star Wars films equally, except Ep. 2, that one was pretty bad

  • @Cmontferrat Asshole much the new trilogy was great maybe not as great as the original but still an incredible trilogy so how about you take that stick out of your ass and STFU

  • @rhymenoceros3303 lmao @ thinking 4 + 5 were anything but unintentional hilarity

  • @rhymenoceros3303 naw what about the dying ewoks that was sooooo sad

  • @Jswizzle217 Oh I forgot about that it was sad : (

  • @rhymenoceros3303 I agree with you all the way. Funny thing is is that none of the "love" scenes from episode 2 made it on your list. They didn't make it on mine either. I think Attack of the Clones needed a little work on the script.

  • @goldAUsilverAG I admit that the love scenes weren't spectacular but they did get the job done but now that you mention it Anakin admitting he killed all those Tuskens was pretty emotional in my opinion

  • @rhymenoceros3303 hey, you're right.

  • @rhymenoceros3303

    I would've included the one when Anakin starts killing Younglings.

  • @Anriel2 Oh yeah forgot about that one especially since most of those kids were 5 thank god they didn't show him killing them.

  • @rhymenoceros3303 Dude, I cried at the cinemas next to my brothers and father when he said you were my brother anakin, I loved you! :(

  • @rhymenoceros3303 what about the burning of qui gon? i actually cried at that scene..

  • @assassin1911kya Oh yeah man do i got to revise this list

  • @rhymenoceros3303 naw its ok thats really the only other part, that and the one where in the II one, where buba is holding his fathers helmet :(

  • wait did Palpatine want Luke to kill Vader and become his new apprentice or keep Vader and add Luke to his side?

  • @MondoWilfredo Either way, Palpatine would have won.

  • @MondoWilfredo He wanted Luke to kill him.

  • @MondoWilfredo

    He wanted Luke to kill Vader, Vader's life support suit was a severe hindrance to both himself and Palpatine. So much like with Dooku, Palpatine wanted Luke to replace Vader by killing him.

  • @spidey1221 Please do not mention the word "dooku" in the presence of this fine video.

  • @Arcexey

    lol, my bad :)

  • @MondoWilfredo he didn't know what the hell he was doing, he changed his mind all the time, he wanted to kill him, the add him to the dark side, then take vaders place, then kill him again.

  • You know, the sabers at that time were more "heavier" than the actual ones that looks like freaking dances with sabers.

  • Comment removed

  • quick!! press the off button on his chest !!

  • Wow.. Back when they actually tried to hit each other and not the lightsaber!

  • must be a family tradition where both the father and the son cut each others hands off

  • Who's saber is that?

  • 0:51 "Help I've fallen and cannot get up"

  • Did he have to cut the guy's hand off?

  • compare the choreography with this Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn vs Darth Maul.

  • Love the original fight scenes, because it actually looks like FIGHTING, not some carefully choreographed needlessly flashy feathery dance number.

  • Have you guys ever noticed that in the prequels the jedi KNIGHTS fight more like shaolin monks, while these two actually fight like two knights in a duel? I just find that kind of ironic.

  • @Stopmotion300

    That's exactly what Lucas was going for. in the original trilogy, he wanted them to act as if the light saber was heavy and required two hands to wield.

  • @Ladiesman1447 That makes sense, they look like their swinging claymores.Clearly this fight was a battle of Strength.

  • @Ladiesman1447 Aren't lightsabers supposed to weigh nothing though? After all it IS a beam of light.

  • @WhiteTiger950 true but all the cirutiry as well as the crystal is in the handle it would have some weight on it. Plus swinging it around like that is almost like swinging a 5 pound dumbbell for 30 minutes. It doesn't weigh much now but after the workout it feels like you are holding something that weighs 100 times than it does.

  • @Shanethefilmmaker Granted, the hilt may have some small weight. But I don't know if that would allow the lightsaber to have the smashing effect they show...

  • @Ladiesman1447 In that philosophy it is akin to a man who knows one style of martial arts to a man who uses a mix of styles.

  • @Stopmotion300 Well, Lucas did say during movie commentary in ANH that vader was half robot and pretty much crippled, so that explains him. Luke maybe because he barely received full training that a jedi would get from childhood to adulthood.

  • I actually watched this in the theater June 1983. Up on the big screen.

  • *microwave dings*

    Vader: My Hot Pockets are now complete.

  • @48to52gfy

    He he he he he, good, strike your father down and take his Hot Pockets and your journey to the Dark Side will be complete.

  • they didn't over do the duel like they did in the prequel, love it!

  • it wouldve been cool if lukes eyes were sith yellow at 0:58
