New Glitches from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back

Now there are even more glitches from Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back:

Luke's legs are closer together in the close-up of the cave ceiling.

If you look closely at the Wampa's arm, you can see where the fur ends and a sleeve begins.

Luke manages to slice off the Wampa's arm. It seems like, rather than running out into the frozen darkness, he might've finished off the creature and spent the night in the relative shelter of its cave. More...

New Glitches from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi

We've added a few more glitches to Star Wars Episode VI:

It's a good thing none of the denizens of Jabba's palace sleep near the carbonite, or Boushh could never get near enough to free Han undetected.

Leia doesn't yet know that C-3PO is mistaken for a god when she tells the droid to order the Ewoks to release the captives. More...

Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith Glitches

Before the new Star Wars film premieres, let's take a look at some bloopers from the past:

Most of the things Obi-Wan tells Luke about his father in Episode IV turn out to be true, at least from a certain point of view. Except for that business about Skywalker Sr. wanting Luke to have his lightsaber when he was old enough. If Anakin had any such wish, he couldn't have told it to Obi-Wan since the latter didn't even learn about Anakin's pending fatherhood until after the two Jedi were beyond the point of making friendly small talk.

On a space ship, "down" is determined by artificial gravity. Therefore, if the ship is damaged and begins to tilt, those inside would not begin to slide across the floor; gravity would keep them oriented to the floor, no matter what position the ship was in. The only way our heroes could experience the "Poseidon Adventure" effect would be if the artificial gravity controls malfunctioned. And what a strange malfunction, as the gravity continues to shift a millimeter at a time until everything is upside-down!

"Only a Sith deals in absolutes," cries Obi-Wan, although his statement is itself an absolute.

Star Wars Glitches

Here are some bloopers from the first (and best) Star Wars film.

The Leia hologram says that her mission to bring Obi-Wan to Alderaan has failed. Good thing! If it had succeeded, he would have died with the rest of the planet. What exactly was Leia's plan, I wonder, once they arrived on Alderaan? We'll never know...

When Tarkin discovers that Princess Leia has lied to him about the location of the Rebel Base, he angrily orders Darth Vader to terminate her immediately. Obviously, Vader never complies. He later comments that she may yet be of use. This must be some new definition of the word "immediately."

"Only Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise" with blaster fire, says Ben Kenobi. Only, Troopers aren't all that precise during the rest of the film. In fact, they miss our heroes quite often.

Star Wars Glitches -- The Phantom Menace


How about this blooper:

The decoy queen gives Padmé, the true Queen Amidala, the task of cleaning up R2-D2, a dirty job she could've allotted to one of the handmaidens just as easily. Must be payback time. more...
