Greatest moments from the saga!
We are all fans of the whole star wars universe. That is why we choose to spend our hard worked $39.99 just to write blogs about our love for the entire star wars saga, EU universe, and so much more! So of course we are entitled to our own opinions and theories about how we interpret the saga and its characters. So here is my opinion on what I find as the greatest moments in the saga!
So here is a short list for you all.

10. When the death star is blown up for the first time: ANH
I just love this scene for so many reasons. For one my spine tingles every time I hear Darth Vader breath while seeing his Bomber on Luke's X-wing's tail. This scene can be heart warming because if you are a first time viewer and you think you have seen the last of Luke's new buddy, Han Solo, he appears out of nowhere. Of course it is not the first or last time he will leave and be back within minutes.

9. "I don't trust Lando": ESB
I find this an important quote for two reasons because Leia is both wrong and correct about being able to trust him. He may be betraying Han, Leia, and Chewbacca, but soon enough he will become an important general for the Rebels!

8. Beginning where they left off: ANH
I find the scene on the death star when Obi-wan is battling Vader, again, very important because it shows that Obi-wan really can become more powerful by giving in. He gives into to Vader and Vader not only has to worry about what happened to him....but the thought of he didn't see Obi-wan suffer in his death. Or at least that's how I interpret the scene! :D

7. Standing in Line for TPM
Obviously this isn't a scene or a line like the rest, but this will always be one more memorable moments in my life. I didn't go to the premier party, or the day after, I went about 3 weeks after the release. All I remember is how nervous I was because I had no clue what was going to happen, but it was awesome.

6. Anakin Vs. Obi-wan: ROTS
Yes I know this is most people's favorite part of the saga, but I can't stand it! Seeing my favorite character try to kill his former master, brother, and friend!? Anakin? What's wrong with you!!!!!!?

5. Final duel: ROTJ
There is just something about this dual that makes me so happy after watching it. Duh, it's the whole father son make-up thing at the end.

4. Seeing Yoda dual for the first time: AOTC
Yes that's right, when Yoda dueled Count Dooku! I was so into the scene when I went to see AOTC there was no way getting my attention from that screen. :D

3. Anakin does the forbidden: AOTC
I knew Leia and Luke had a mother, but I never knew that Vader actually had a wife! I knew Padme and Anakin were going to fall in love in AOTC, but I never thought it would lead them to getting married.

2. Anakin betrays the order: ROTS
This scene must be one of the most painful scenes to watch in the entire saga, but for some reason we all love it any way, especially you sith fans!

1. Celebration: ROTJ
When people talk about their favorite scenes I am always quite surprised to see this scene isn't up there in the favorites. "WESA FREE!" The war is over....and all those little Rebels can finally be happy again!

So there are my favorite moments in Star Wars history! Well I have said it once, and I shall say it again, we are all entitled to an opinion right? My favorites are probably different from everyone else's....so please do share your favorites!

feel free to share your favorites,
Jedi Abba :D

The Celebration often doesn't make the cut due to the fact that, in the words of Harrison Ford, it ended with "A Teddy Bear picnic"
That and the fact that it's the most toyed with scene in the saga. Changing the music and adding the CG celebration scenes in the special edition. Then adding the Naboo scene you mentioned. Which also struck a chord with OT Purists who used to be able to say "Well at least the OT doesn't have Gungans", and of course changing Anakin's head to Hayden...

Despite all this ([and I'm not exactly a fan of the Hayden change...) it probably would make my cut, but considerably lower. Your number 5, The Duel, Basically the entire time the song "Return of the Jedi" is playing, is probably my number 1 :)

Obi-Wan "This is the end for you, My Master".................I keep saying that all the time now

Probably the two scenes that actually get me all misty-When Darth Vader dies, and when Obi-Wan and Anakin duel. "You were the Chosen One!" *sniff*

Those are my favorites too! Yay! I also like the battle of Endor, when Luke meets Obi-Wan, the battle of Geonosis, the Pod Races and Vader vs. Luke on Bespin. And maybe the garbage compressor thing on the Death Star.....

And the whole girl/avatar thing, I get that a lot too. I love Luke, get avatar of Luke, nibody knows I'm a girl....:p

jedi_abba - #9 - I almost thought you were going to say that this line shows Leia as being Force-sensitive. Oh well, nice blog!
