I was looking through The Worst Scene/Sequence in Any Star Wars Film thread earlier, and thought it’s been a while since I’ve thought about some of the great / favourite scenes from the films.
This one sums up mine from Empire…
I think I may be most partial to the Carbon Freezing scene … and Chewie’s performance stands out the most. Watch that scene again from Chewie’s perspective and it’ll hit an entirely new emotional level.
Also a scene from Rogue One, it’s the Cassian scene at the Rebel Base hangar, where he and a small group of Rebels decide to join Jynn and take on the fight themselves (after the Rebel Alliance leaders have decided not to)…
‘Some of us - well, most of us - we’ve all done terrible things on behalf of the Rebellion. Spies, saboteurs, assassins. Everything I did, I did for the Rebellion. And every time I walked away from something I wanted to forget, I told myself it was for a cause that I believed in. A cause that was worth it. Without that, we’re lost. Everything we’ve done would have been for nothing. I couldn’t face myself if I gave up now. None of us could.’
