Vader gets upset

Stormtrooper:"The Death Star plans are not in the main computer." NEW

Vader & Captain Antilles:"If this is a consular ship, where is the ambassador? Commander, tear this ship apart until you've found those plans and bring me the passengers - I want them alive!"

Smart Stormtroopers!

It's amazing how sharp these guys were compared to the rifle fodder they became in the sequels.

Stormtrooper:"There's one..Set for stun!"

Vader:"Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by Rebel spies." NEW

C-3PO and R2-D2 arrive on Tatooine

R2-D2's squeal as C-3PO leaves him. NEW

A Jawa's yell NEW

Jawa Language

In a number of instances, the Jawa language is simply English at a really high rate of speed. Many of the times the Jawas speak, they mutter the same line. Click here to listen to the line and then figure out what the Jawa is saying. The answer is at the bottom of the page.

Luke's first whine

This is where it all began...

Luke:"But I was going into Toshi Station to pick up some power convertors!"

Luke:"This R2 unit has a bad motivator - look!" NEW

C-3PO:"As a matter of fact, I'm not even sure which planet I'm on!?" NEW

Just Another Day on the Dunes...

Stormtrooper:"Look Sir! Droids!" NEW

Damsel in Distress

Leia:"Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi - You're my only hope."

Dinnertime whining

Uncle Owen:"Luke! I'm shutting the power down!" NEW

Meeting Ben

Ben:"Come here my little friend." NEW

Ben:"Obi-Wan Kenobi...Obi-Wan...Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time...A long time..." NEW

Luke & Ben:"I saw part of the message you - I seem to have found it." NEW

Subtle he is not

Ben certainly does not beat around the bush.

Ben:"You must learn the ways of the Force - If you're to come with me to Alderran!"

Obi-Wan plays detective

Ben:"...and these blast points...Too accurate for Sand People...Only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise..." NEW

Luke clues in to what's going on

Luke:"If they traced the robots here, they may have learned who they sold them to and that would lead them back...home!" NEW

Fun town to visit!

Ben:"Mos Eisley Spaceport. You will never find the more wretched hive of scum and villany..." NEW

Ben messes with a stormtrooper

Stormtrooper, Luke & Ben:"How long have you had these droids? About three or four seasons? They're up for sale if you want them!Let me see your identification. You don't need to see his identification...We don't need to see his identification. These aren't the droids you're looking for...These aren't the droids we're looking for. He can go about his business...You can go about your business...Move Along. Move Along...Move Along..". NEW

Rules of the Bar

Wuhrer & Luke:"Hey! We don't serve their kind here! What? Your droids - They'll have to wait outside..We don't want them here!"

Beware the local drunks!

In my humble opinion, Wuhrer should have stopped serving these two a couple of hours before!

Dr. Evazan & Luke:"You just watch yourself! We're wanted men! I have the death sentences on twelve systems! I'll be careful...You'll be dead!" (102k)

The First Appearance of Han Solo

In an earlier draft of the script, Han is first seen cozying up with a woman, who he ushers away as Luke and Ben arrive at the table. This scene can be viewed on the Star Wars: Behind the Magic CD-ROM.

Han:"Han Solo. I'm Captain of the Millenium Falcon..."

Han & Ben:"Fast ship? You've never heard of the Millenium Falcon? Should I have? It's the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs..."

Han & Luke:"Ten thousand...All in advance....Ten thousand??? We could almost buy our own ship for that!? But who's gonna fly it kid - You? You bet I could; I'm not such a bad pilot myself - We don't have to sit here and listen to this..." NEW

Han:"Seventeen thousand!! Those guys must really be desperate! This could really save my neck! Get back to the ship - Get her ready!" NEW

Greedo tries to collect

The alien Greedo was actually played by George Lucas' secretary, who sported high heels during the scene.

Greedo:"Oota-Goota, Solo?"

The self-defence move

George Lucas was troubled by the original version of the film, wherein Solo shoots Greedo dead in cold blood. To rectify the situation, Lucas had ILM add in a blaster shot from Greedo in the Special Edition, just before Solo's to make it appear as self defence. How Greedo could have missed from that range though is beyond me!?

Han:"Over my dead body..." NEW

Han:"Yes...I'll bet you have!"

Han:"Sorry 'bout the mess..." NEW
