    Watch The Empire Strikes Back theatrical trailer, which debuted in fall 1979 and gave audiences their first look at the sequel to Star Wars. In addition to a sampling of scenes taken from the entire movie, the trailer surprisingly features footage that was cut from the final film, including a kiss between Luke and Leia, C-3PO removing a warning sticket from a door in the Rebel base on Hoth, and more. Most interesting, however, is the voiceover -- provided by none other than Harrison Ford himself.

      +Joseph McKay That suggests there's another Jedi, not that Leia and Luke are sisters. Granted, Leia is seen hearing Luke as the end, but that just implies that Leia can use the force. It in NO way implies they're brother and sister.

      It's such a difference from the temp music version with the serious voiceover. I can hear them directing him in the booth: "Peppier! Brighter! More fun!"
      I thought this one came after, but given the unused footage and temp title treatment at the end, I think it came first.

      I like trailers that don't talk. In fact I think that's why they stopped talkin in trailers is because it always sounded so weird and no one likes to be spoiled we liked it better when we have to guess.

      Deleted scene. A bunch of Wampas break into the base and the rebels herd them into that room. 3PO then buys them some time by ripping the sign and misleading the arriving snow troops into believing there are rebels hiding this room. Why this was cut is beyond me, it's awesome and many claim it wasn't included because "it didn't fit" 3P0's cowardly nature, which in my opinion is a bunch of BS.

    What makes The Empire Strikes Back as a great sequel is the fact that it dwelled into the characters a lot more. The first film was fun and full of action and we meet the characters. This masterpiece took a much darker tone in terms of learning who Luke really is, the growing relationship of Solo and Leia and Vader's inner conflicts with himself.
    This may go down as the best sequel I've ever seen.

    This is not only the best Star Wars movie, but one of the best sequels ever made, it’s up there with The Godfather Part 2. This film has always been my favorite of the Saga and the one I have the most nostalgia with since first seeing it when I was 4/5 years old

    Not a bad trailer. It was made in a day when they didn't feel like spoiling every money shot and plot twist. There's no way it would be made today without a shot of the giant space worm, Han Solo encased in carbonite, Luke and Darth Vader duelling and Darth Vader saying to Luke "Join me, and together, we can rule the galaxy..." or "Obi-Wan never told you..."

    3. Luke meets Yoda.
    4. Boba Fett.
    5. Irvin Kershner directing.
    6. It´s the darkest of the 6 movies (a little more than Revange of the Sith).

    8. Han, Leia, C-3PO and Chewbacca escaping the Empire.
    9. Han and Leias relationship.

    I saw this trailer at the cinema in late autumn or early winter of 1979. I will never forget it. The crowd went NUTS clapping and cheering. (To younger people: this was over ten years before the Internet became a public phenomenon, so no one had seen or even expected the trailer. It was a total surprise.) I don't think that anyone could tell that it was Harrison Ford providing the voiceover.
    Then, at the end, he said those final two words: "... next summer." Immediately, many viewers belted out loud cries of despair and disappointment. It was hilarious! 😆

      @TS-ev1bl 4 роки тому +4

      This wasn't a typical trailer even in those days. It was purposely done in an exaggerated, jokey, throwback style, hence Harrison Ford's goofy narration. It was clearly meant as an imitation of old style movie serial trailers of the '30s and '40s. The original Star Wars trilogy itself was meant to be a swashbuckling "Flash Gordon" throwback, so as an inside joke this trailer was done in an old school serial style.
