NEVER BEFORE SEEN STAR WARS BLOOPER—Cat's Got Vader's Tongue

Watch closely as Vader gestures, as if he's talking, but says nothing... was there some missing dialogue?

You just NOW noticed this?? I noticed that when I saw this in '77...when I was 6-1/2 years old.

@maceek1 : I noticed it then too... but the point is it's still there even though Lucas did all of this work on the "special editions", and spend a lot of money adding new effects, but nobody at Lucasfilm caught this... hard to believe.

Maybe he was looking at his watch?

@johanfer The easiest way would be to cut out everything after Vaders lines until Tarkin says, "Terminate her, immediately!". Adywan's Star Wars Revisited Fan Edit fixes the empty gesture but there's still an odd gap between Vader's and Tarkin's lines. I'm sure there's a way to split screen the shot to isolate Vader and realign the gesture to his voiceover.

If anyone knows the actual production process of this film, James Earl Jones is NOT inside the vader suit...hence the actor inside the suit was doing the lines and making the gestures and James Earl Jones did the voice overbdub in the studio....just so you know...yes...it happens sometimes where the sync goes a bit....off...That's Showbiz!!!

wow great quality, bro, thanks for putting a camera up to a tv, retar.

[hagenar]

That was a gang sign. What a badass.

AWKWARD! haha

The guy that played vader had lines to read but they dubbed in JEJ after cause his voice was better, the actor also blabbed to the media some plot so lucas gave him fake lines for the later films IIRC. Both reasons explain why that wasnt caught also becasue you can barely see vader as its a long shot. Its all fake anyway people, grow up.

4 words:

Your argument is invalid.

[TehKeenanDude]

It looks like he put up the finger

[johanfer]

@evolution1138 i think they noticed too.  They didn't fix it because, how could they fix it? They could not shoot it again and fans would have gone crazy if they had added dialog to make it look right.

@evolution1138

That's because they spent a lot of time and money on designing and developing all the special effects used for this. Did you know that they created a special type of system to control the camera for space? It was the industry standard for decades after this movie.

But why would you put NEVER BEFORE SEEN in all caps?
