Bit harsh on Dave Prowse, that. All the mannerisms we're familiar with Vader came from Prowse, not Lucas. He was given very little direction as to how Vader should move, so he incorporated a lot of the exaggerated moves he'd learned as a body builder such as the abrupt turns, clenched fists, thumbs in his belt when standing still etc. Vader was the best of 3 people's brilliance - Jones, Prowse and Burtt who came up with the sound.
Poor David Prowse.. he lived his post Star Wars life in extreme bitterness because of the total lack of recognition of his role in the saga. Never got over Lucas’ decisions.
George had not paid him the bonuses he had the other cast. A multi-billionaire denying a working man his paycheck? Keep in mind that Mr. Prowse never had any true fame; this income was a significant element of his livelihood.
I emphatically agree! Mr. Lucas had accused Mr. Prowse of essentially leaking spoilers. This despite the producer's specious dialogue in the script, expressly to obviate such a possibility. All this over Mr. Prowse's glib, off- the-cuff remark to the press obliquely referring to story content he could not have known. At 3:03, the narrator says that the swordsman and stunt double Bob Anderson replaced Mr. Prowse for the lightsaber combat scenes in the second and third episodes, and all the second half of Return of the Jedi (1983, 20th Century-Fox, Richard Marquand, John Williams). I heard differently. In the scene where Lord Vader, shortly following his defeat to Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), threw Emperor Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid) down the elevator shaft, Mr. Anderson, a tall, thin fellow, lacked the strength to work the stunt. Mr. Prowse, on the set and in costume, offered to play the scene, despite a sprained knee. He completed the shot in one take, even to raising the Sith Lord over his head with both arms!

Darth Vader is the best villain in screen history, imho. David Prowse's legacy will go on; he's the reason why this iconic character lives. It's not easy emoting with only body language, and his presence was intimidating .... a 6'7" bodybuilder (who, fun fact, was Christopher Reeve's personal trainer to bull him up for the Superman movie). For all his hard work, he was robbed by GL in 1) not being told he'd be dubbed and 2) not allowing him to reveal his own face in ROTJ. But I'm not bitter lol RIP Mr. David Prowse!! The One And Only Lord Vader
It is so nice to see that Hayden Christensen would reprise his role as Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader filling in the shoes that David Prowse left behind as the iconic dark Lord of the Sith even though James Earl Jones retired these people are still the ones that brought the dark Lord of the Sith to life I really hope that one day Disney visit the old republic era bringing dark Lord of the Sith such as Reven or Darth bane to life I would really love to see Darth bane in his or burlesque armor
It makes total sense to have James Earl Jones do the voice of Darth Vader dubbed over David’s. No disrespect to David Prowse but when you hear him speak with his British accent it just doesn’t really sell the character
Vader has always been a very complicated character, 1 The Voice ofcourse, 2 Vader in any Action scene is likely not always going to be Easy (Hayden needs to eat his Wheaties), 3Prowses gait and gestures are unique, Vader walks with a purpose but never looks rushed, He gestures with a natural authority (RO wasn't right with that) but never looks like he's "Over Trying". Getting Vader right could be maddening, so much is nuanced and natural, other people (Or machines) unaccustomed likely will need takes and takes and takes with alot of watching the scene and/or listening, comparing that to original and deciding "close enough or not.
I really like this video. I wanna know more about the Darth Vader film set makeup designs so that when I make Star Wars movies one day I can be prepared familiar with filmmaking.
Nothing will ever replace the iconic voice of James Earl Jones. Not even Reespecher. But I have to massively respect the Ukrainian company for bringing the voice of Vader for Kenobi on the eve of the Russian-Ukrainian war
EDITED FOR ERROR At 1:54, the narrator tells us that the mask needed padding. A few years past, I saw Mr. Prowse say in an interview that the costume, helmet, and mask fit snugly because the fabricators expressly had tailored it to his tall, robust frame, and his head and face.
The name "Vader" does NOT come from father in dutch ! As you said it just before, he originally was NOT Luke's father. It probably comes from "Invader" because Vader first appearance is when the Empire invades the Tantive IV (such as "Sidious" comes from "Insidious", describing how he became the Emperor).

Just Googled it, the Book/movie "The Andromeda Nebula", and the character who leant his name to Darth Vader was "Darr Veter".

I hate that people use the on set footage to mock Prowse's accent. He was an actor. On set he would be shouting through the mask. So the other actors could understand their cues. If he was brought back to foley his lines he would have acted and as an actor he would have probably ditched his Bristol accent. His voice would doubtlessly have been altered in the same way that JEJ's was too. I agree JEJ's voice works best but they could have told him before hand. Similarly Peter Serafinowicz had to buy his own ticket to see the Phantom Menace and only found out his voice had been replaced in the Solo movie when he took his children to see it.
@@SBNEnter no its more than that. People keep showing his on set footage as justification. How could David possibly play Vader? He could have. Would he have been better as the voice? Probably not. Would he have worked? Certainly. He was treated very badly. And there is a pattern there.

It's not about success. It's ok with me. Just search an information accurate. Google will help you.
vaders mask in the prequel looks horrific and the costume was entirely incorrect to the one used in a new hope.... they really blew the continuity
I hate the Revenge of the Sith Vader suit. It looks so.....off. The helmet is so large and bulbous, and what little neckpiece there is seems to slide under the shoulderpads....so odd
this guy knows nothing about star wars lol
Prove it

I liked the video. Nice work.
