Ten Greatest SW Moments

[Tim Bruening]

Now that all six movies are done, how would you rank your idea of the
greatest moments (countdown-style)? And is it possible to vote for
anything other than you-know-what as #1?

10. The Wookiee Tarzan yells in ROTJ and ROTS
9. Jar Jar sticking his tongue out
8. The Sarlacc burping after swallowing Fett
7. Jedi Rocks
6. "Look sir, droids."
5. Luke screaming as he falls down the shaft in Cloud City.
4. Greedo shooting first.
3. Artoo saying "Uh oh"...twice.
2. Jar Jar saying "How wude"...three times.
1. The Yub Yub song.

The Empire Anthem.

Too early for me to know for sure that something else from Sith does
not belong here.
10 TPM - Maul showing up to fight Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon, the rest of the
group getting the hell out of there.
9 AotC - The chase through Coruscant showing off the dazzling
city-planet.
8 RotS - The exchange between Obi-Wan and Anakin after the duel while
Anakin is trying to drag himself up the slope as though he is still
going to kill Obi-Wan.
7 RotS - Dooku's expression when Palpatine tells Anakin to kill him.
6 ESB - Escaping the cave that turns out to be a giant monster (okay,
space slug).
5 ESB - The asteroid chase and the PERFECT music that accompanies it.
4 ANH - The opening where you first see a Star Destroyer and it seems
like the ship goes on forever.
3 ESB - The first view of the massive AT-ATs.
2 ESB - "I am your father."
1 RotJ - Vader's "especially for..... siiiiissssster" and Luke's
frenzied attack that follows.

Anakin going berserk and killing all the members of the Tuscan Raider/Sand
People tribe that killed his mother.

A clonetrooper walks into a bar. "Ouch", he says.

Yoda v. Dooku: when I saw the fight, I said "This one wins fight of the year
at the MTV Movie Awards." It did.

Vader tells Luke "I'M your father." THE pivotal point in ALL of the
Jediverse. RotJ or the prequels can't be done without the scene.

That's because MTV is run by a load of 8 year olds.

In reality Yoda vs Dooku was a badly cartoon-ised version of a
lightsabre battle. All you see is a green blur and then almost expect
Yoda to step back, Dooku say "you missed me" and then fall into lots of
pieces just like Sylvester or the Coyote ... hardly a fitting for Star
Wars battle. :-(
