Vader at his calm, cool, and collected best. And the score — John Williams is a sliver of God.

Obligatory. But this is where Star Wars becomes a classic. If the movie ended after this scene we would still be talking about it 40 years later.

You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.

The opening of every SW film always gets me amped no matter how many times I’ve seen it. With the OT I currently think the opening scene of ANH is still awesome.

“There is too many of them!”

And there is indeed. My all-time favourites are always going to be:

Vader’s redemption and throwing Palpatine down the shaft (without “Nooooo” of course).
Binary Sunset
Speeder Bike Chase
The rebels flying into the second Death Star
Luke and the force ghosts at the end of ROTJ (Shaw version)
Wampa cave
Asteroid chase
Yoda in the swamplifting up Luke’s X-Wing

There is to add that I really love every dynamic scene between Luke, Han and Leia - right after they rescue Leia from her prison cell in ANH until Echo base after Luke wakes up.

For me personally, from growing up watching A New Hope, there are many scenes that I like. But if I had to simplify it to one, it would be the scene on Tatooine with the binary sunset. Every time I listen to that scene, it gives me goosebumps. I guess it’s just grows into you after time. John Williams did a phenomenal job.
