4:14 was when this man knew EXACTLY who it was standing behind him as he slowly turned around this reaction was priceless
The whole time I was waiting for Mark or 1 of the ppl who got pranked to say "hello there"
His eyebrows 😂
:D
Yup. I thought the same thing🎉💯
@@RJ-ew9fl Forget eyebrows. I’m more worried about the guy’s undies.
Mark Hamill is such an amazing person.
Well he is the clown prince of crime after all
Carlos Santana hah
@@carlossantana5712 You said it...hahaha
I know right
Sure. It's a jedi boy...
Mark Hamill is like the uncle everybody wanted
oh I know right!
Yeah, the cool, funny one that gives you sweet presents
Yes
Good thing yall like me
@Luke Skywalker
Can you do that cool force levitation thing?
The thing i love about Mark is that he isn’t just the actor playing Luke. But he actually knows a good amount of Star Wars history. He is an actor and a fan.
He. Would. Be.
@@_R-R What. The. Funk.
@@Jagar_Tharn Tickle. My. Nuggies.
He isn’t just the actor playing Luke, HE IS LUKE
"I had more lines with you than I did in the movie" - never misses a chance to trashtalk Disney 😂
I caught that too and it made me laugh but it also makes me sad. Lol
@@meaningfulmindfulness15 don't be sad. It was never going to be good. It just shouldn't have been made by money hungry coorporate types.
Watch Mandalorian instead. It is salve for that wound of a trilogy. It actually has a coherent story.
@@kylas1902 I haven't seen it yet but the internet have spoilt mandalorian latest episodes for me. Still a bit hyped!
kylas indeed one of the best Star Wars series Disney made it's amazing and the story is not about money it's actually loved and cared about I love the story sooo much
He’s sounding more like joker everyday instead of luke
the older he gets, the scratchier his voice becomes, and that’s why, which is so weird and... cool..?
ThingsSaiid get of his back dude he just posted this original comment no one has ever said before
He’s done more years of the Joker than Luke, his dark side is greater
The dark side is taking over
He's done the joker for so long that I think his voice is just stuck like that
“No that’s impossible you can’t be dad Vader”😂😂
Bangtan kookie 😂😂
Vader is actually dutch for father
@@julianvdr8808 Interesting !
The Surprise and slow turn
I loved that part
Everyone deserves to be this happy at least once in their lives: 4:14
That is it, man!
Dude was blown away 😂
Mark Hamill is a gift to mankind.
We must protect him at all costs
Carlos Lopez in a galaxy far far away especially
George Zhang I wish I could just meet him. Luke is one of my favorite characters.
You can hear the Joker coming out during some of his lines too
Mark: and I am a Jedi like Obi-Wan before me
The force is very strong in Mark Hamill
He can overtrhow the snoke :D
I AM the force
🤣
It actually is though
@@meltaylor4636 *not...yet*
Girl: Rogue One is the best Star Wars movie I’ve ever seen
Mark Hamill: ight imma head out
Tootuff4ya Mark Hammmilll
It had the best vader scene we've seen so far
Tootuff4ya I kind of have to agree with the girl. Rogue one was even better than Force Awakens and Last Jedi.
Flash Bang Oh yeah for sure it was the best new Star Wars movie I guess even though it’s kind of a prequel
The Comicten what. No last Jedi and rise of Skywalker are.
Woman: *holds lightsaber in order to give it to Luke”
Hamil: “that came with a hand did you bring that too Natalie?”
🤣🤣🤣
This was the most hilarious joke!
I love his dark sense of humour
3:39 “THAT CAME WITH A HAND! DID YOU BRING THAT TOO!?”
qui gons lightsaber:no it didnt
Liked that joke
I liked that joke
Lmao
Liked it.
"That came with a hand did you bring that too?" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hufflepuff Wampus im hufflepuff and Wampus aswell 👍
Hufflepuff Wampus I am a Rawenclaw Horned snake!
Someone should dub that line in!!
X Y me too
X Y
i'm one to
This makes me wanna cry, he's just an absolute treasure.
Nicole Bragg makes u wanna cry?
Agreed
Agreed
He's just paid to do this😑
@@kumbaya69421 No, not for this.
He's promoting a charity-awards company and it's competition.
4:13 the pure joy on this guys face as soon as he heard the voice is so wholesom
"I have more lines with YOU than I do in the movies!" Absolute savage
I came for this comment!
"movie" :P
@@WouterPlanet TFA was decent
Would have been fun of he had grabbed the lightsaber, then tossed it away, thus spoiling the movie without anyone actually knowing he was spoiling it, because no one would have expected such an idiotic move in a real movie.
@@Wistbacka Nice burn but doesnt really make sense because the movie was already out
Mark Hamill has a great sense of humor. You could say he's a real joker
*wink wink*
I mean, he did play Joker in the Batman Games
@@amko6358 Thats the point ;)
Wink wink nudge nudge
I see whatcha did there. :P
"That came with a hand..." lol Mark Hamill is awesome!
Best line ever, they so should have ended TFA with that, like small postcredit scene, or even before credits.
Can't believe he actually read that meme. lol
I'm crying Cx
I REALLY wish he had said that in the film itself. First line. "Did you bring my hand, too?"
Quincy Cleophas Jenkins best one out of all of them.
My favorite is at 3:38 "That came with a hand did you bring that too, Natalie?" Then she hugged him. Such a happy moment for her. 😊🤗
We have to hand it to the guy directing the fans too. Not once did he break his "director" mode. 🙂
😂😂
if i had three wishes, it would be:
mark hamill is immortal
mark hamill is never aging
mark hamill is immortal
Same
My 3rd one would be Mark Hamil is my uncle
@@ShodaiGojira-xn3xk bruh I was about to say that 😂
Genie: You have 999 wishes more
Also have him play the joker in live action
“That came with a hand did you bring that too, Natalie?”
Lolololol
Awww i had more lines with you than i did in the movies that hurts
SuperFm101 I spent much more time searching for this comment than i should have needed.
It was a brilliant pun against Disney/the script in my view.
Although I have to admit that every SW Film has an unique style. These styles switch between the triologies, so in my view all SW films are (at least at some point) great, but not competitive.
I died laughing at that
@@SuperFm101 so true
"That came with a hand. Did you bring that too, Natalie?"
Fennec Femboy That was the best.
Girl: Rogue One is the best Star Wars movie I’ve ever seen.
Revenge of the Sith: You underestimate my power!
Neither of them can hold a candle to Empire Strikes back or New Hope
@@roachdoggjr7393 rots is easily better than a new hope but not empire
@@BubbaJed you're tripping balls dude. A New Hope is near perfect. ROTS is a good movie at best. These prequel memers pretending like these poorly acted, directed and written movies are cinematic masterpieces just because the Internet told them they are.
@@roachdoggjr7393 nah rogue one and revenge of the sith were easily better than new hope
Rots was as good as empire if not empire was maybe a bit better
@@roachdoggjr7393 revenge of the sith was one of, if not the best Star Wars film, multiple people would agree with me.
Personally my favourite was return of the Jedi, closely followed by rots and empire
Mark Hamill is SUCH a sweet man. Anyone who gets to meet him is in for a once-in-a-lifetime treat.
SkulShurtugalTCG One day ❤️😭
SkulShurtugalTCG Were you suprised?
how sweet he was
Entity Mays I think at this point, most people are at least relatively aware of it, but it's no less astounding for those people to see, or experience it. And that's half of the magic, that people can continually appreciate, and be fascinated by it.
I met him at Star Wars Celebration, he is ridiculously lovely.
3:56 my favourite one because of the guy's face change as he hears Mark's voice XD
Except he doesn't know that the line is "No, I AM your father."
Same 😂
He looks like he wants to scream 😃
Dave Johnson Mandela affect
He sounds like George macfly saying I’m your density
“I. Am. Mark Hamill!”
“OH MY GOD!”
“I know!”
LOL!!!!! That had me! 😂😂😂😂
i know and who know
Roundabout best part
Mark Hamill is one of those people that you CANT get mad at, because he’s such a sweet guy and nobody can stay mad at him
“That came with a hand. Do you have that too?” Should have been on the film.
Would've been a much better joke than tossing it over the shoulder
Jesus imagine that’s how the Last Jedi opened. I would’ve loved that
if ruin johnson really wanted to begin the movie with a silly joke, it should’ve been this one.
Probably would’ve held up better in the movie than what we actually got.
🤣😂
“That came with a hand, did ya bring that too?”
I wonder if Mark got that from Toon Sandwich Last Jedi trailer or vise versa
I’m the 1,000th like. Meh, not that interesting, but at least it’s a milestone.
3:41 "I have more lines with you than I do in the movies" my god he did not hold back
I can't believe Mark is now 69 YEARS OLD....I mean he's so cute, gentle, funny, it is like he never aged and rebecame a child in his mind ! It's wonderful !!
@@amanparthivkrishnan3348 We are too immature
4:13, that realisation and slow turn around is probably my favourite part of this entire thing
my too
I'm pleased to see thata Mark Hamill is having so much fun these days.
Greg Flowers he hates how he is in the new star wars movies tho
He changed his opinion tho
Hievenhade when
Dat Guy After people started associating him with the hate for the new movies. Him "changing his opinion" was probably just damage control/pr talk. Not a good idea to be on Disney's bad side, considering they own basically half the damned film industry.
I wonder if he feels good seeing his past days as Young Luke
"That came with a hand did you bring that too?"
I LAUGHED TOO HARD
I've been waiting for him to say that since 7 came out... I can die complete.
If Luke says that in The Last Jedi i'll die laughing.
Mark Hamill: *puts Vader mask*
Me: wait that’s illegal
I will make it legal
Well he is a Skywalker so just think of it as a inheritance 🤩🔥🧑🏻🦰🔥💙💙💙💙💙💙👱🏽👌🏿
Well what about the tree at Dagobah?
3:44 "I had more lines with you than I do in the movie"
Maybe he get paid for promoting the movies with the fans than actually been in the movie :/
this is my first comment that got 100 likes.Thanks guys
That was a great pick-up line! @_@
Lo Gan he's so quick witted and quick wit it
Lol😂
“THAT CAME WITH A HAND DID YOU BRING THAT TOO NATALIE?”
I am deceased
Daniel Arch tell me about it lol
A minute of applause for this guy's face at 4:14 when Mak behind him screams 'Noo! That's impossible!' 🤣👏🏻
greatest reaction ever
That sounded just like Skips! He IS Skips!
0:13 The fact that MH hides his hand to get in character is amazing. This guy has got so much life energy... The Force is strong with this one. I don't care he's getting old, he's forever our young Luke.
1:28: "He looks like a dark side character"
1:30: "Absolutely,Darth Vader"
*mmmmmhhh with this one,the force is strong!*
He had a 501st shirt on. That's a pretty big tell.
He had a 501 legion shirt on
GOOD. GOOD!
“I have more lines with you than I do in the movies”
and its so true ;(
@@microsoftice6498 Unfortunately yes
He warned us...
Mark Hamill is amazing.
Marcus W He's flawless
Marcus W yeah he's amazing
This man is just genuine. You just want to hug him. And he will hug you back and geek out with you about him. There’s no arrogance. He’s just... the best 😭🖤
"i had more lines with you than i did in the movie" - The savage himself, Mark Hamill
xD Gotta love the sass.
Alakins "DID YOU SEE A HAND WITH THAT?!" I died
Tim Rutherford, it does count as luke skywalker, but who could say if that was even Mark Hamill? i mean it was just a hooded guy which seemed to be a younger luke (younger than Force Awakens Luke) with a metal hand on a droid for a few seconds.
Anyways when he says lines he's refering to parts of the script he had to read in the movie, of which he had none.
Mark's Darth Vader voice was outstanding...
well he was a voice actor for 20 years
Knightikhan More
JCATV
I heard a little joker in this voice
I will never forget Mark standing on Tatooine, looking at the binary sunset.
Gamer-ish [TMT] such a great score for that scene I just can't remember the name of it
Probably one of the most Iconic scenes in SW history. That scene had such feels.
Gamer-ish [TMT] its one of the best scenes in cinema
45 Times... we fought that beast.
Reminiscent of our suns binary nemesis??
1:04 mark admiring all the people and the fact that he has been a part of something so big that has helped so many people, a whole different universe
I dont think there is a more sympathetic, cooler and nicer actor than the great Mark Hamill him self
Johnny Depp?
While Depp gets points for being a pirate Mark wins double bonus super points for also being the Joker.
4:14 The look on his face is priceless 😂
He looks like he realizes there are no toilets and needs to number 2
Tweet tweet TWEET!
He looks like he just crapped himself
The slow turn is everything
@Yeetus_Deletus_Mission_Completus no it isn’t
4:14 That face you make when you realise that Mark Hamill is behind you and that you said "Luke, I am your father" and not "No... I am your father."
:(
that is false
that face is perfect
Yeah... as soon as I heard "Luke, I am your father", I cringed. Last time I checked, the title of this video says that Hamill pranks "Star Wars fans", not "casual Star Wars viewers".
That's how i would feel.
He really is a great guy, down to earth.
Sith lords are our speciality
Immediately get rekt
His fate will be the same as ours
Dew it!
We are for the big.
Hello there
“Noooo! That’s impossible!!! You can’t be dad Vader!!”
Callie Stalnaker "how are ya, man?"
‘Wow’
I love that he calls him Dad Vader
He sound like jack black
Hamill seems like such a genuinely adorable dude.
Hortense Bac'o he is
3:24 Never expected to be this close to Luke Skywalker, *literally.*
4:14
Mark Hamill: “NOOOO THATS NOT THE LINE” 🤣
Mandela Effect
It should’ve been “No, *I* am your father”
Some of the most incredible marketing I have ever seen.... very entertaining AND for a good cause.

4:15
He's like "Oh no. I'm dreaming! I have to be!"
Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
His eyebrows were twitching, you can see he was totally stoked
If it were me that’s all Mark Hamill I would stand looking like Ray and then pick up my light saber and hold it out to him like a big fan your Luke Skywalker Luke this is going to sound very geeky of me but I am going to scream with joyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaa not doneeeeeees🤩🤩🤩🤩🖖
"Its even more frightening than that.. I am...
Mark Hamill!"

Omg
NOOOO THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!!!
I am... MARK HAMIL!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE !!!!!!!
Forgot THAT'S NOT TRUE!!!
No.. you are Erin Kaye
Erin Kaye I am yur sister
Erin Kaye oh yeah well I AM THE CENATE
I like how these are ‘super fans’ when one of them said “Luke, I am your father” that’s wrong he says “No, I am your father”
Did he though?
Yeah, he says no, not Luke.
No he says "No, I am THE father"
It’s at 4:10 when the guy said it by the way
@@adrex7116 you are not the fathed
The world will be sad when Mark and Harrison Ford are not here.

im gonna cry so bad the day mark hamill goes
Can't wait for this comment to NOT age very well.

@@padme2552 *Anticipating for this comment to go bad.
4:18 - the slow turn around of astonishment
3:52 "Luke, I am your father"... Mandela Effect is real
Yea I thought the same, yikes
It’s not the Mandela effect it’s just supposed fans who have never actually watched the movies
Yaaaassss
salty_kikkoman
No, it is just a poseur Star Wars fan who is more familiar with a pop culture meme than the actual correct line of dialogue from the movie.
@Kyle Robinson By my research I am 110% you are a child.
4:14 The face of pure joy
Get out with your weed jokes, UA-cam is now family friendly.
Ogryska No I mean the actual time of 4:20. Not sure if this is sarcasm

King Dami I bet you watched you didn’t even watch the prequel
Not going to lie.. mid 40's and id probably cry if i met him. Star wars brings back such amazing memories of being young and seeing it for the first time, all the toys etc
"NOOOOO! YOU CAN´T BE DAD-VADER!!" Died a little ;D
I always have to chuckle as 'vader' means 'father' in the Dutch language!
Darth father...lol

Mark Hamill just seems like the nicest guy ever. He just seems like the type of person you’d love being in the same room as
4:14 The face you make when you find out your a jedi
NOOO That's impossible! You can't be Dad Vader
"I had more lines with you than in the movie"
He's very unhappy with the new movies, and that's just another hint for it.
When ? What minutem

0:23 He looked over at Mark and wanted to scream but he continued the bit
Like a champ
I'm still his father!

Good for Mark. He has always seemed like such a nice man to me. I would love to actually meet The Joker in person!!!!!!
"I am... Mark Hamill!"
"Oh my god"
Laura Thomson he sounded not quite surprised lel
The best bit of this video is his face at 4:15
I probably would've cried tbh 😂
John Atherstone The slow realization that it's the real Hamill yelling is hilarious
John Atherstone he (not Mark) looks like a 50s cartoon ice cream man

He's seen the memes.
Not a real surprise taking into account it's Mark, he addressed and referred to the fans reactions over social media several times throughout Celebration
he IS the meme!
I hear joker more when he say this
I'm pretty sure he created it.
the guys face on 4:16 XD
3:38 Quite a bit of Joker in that delivery XD
Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
BattleUp Saber Is it possible to learn this power?
BattleUp Saber Not from a Jedi.
You do not know the power of the Dark Side
Anyone from the Sithposting here
of course i have
If I met the real Mark Hamill I would cry, Luke is my favorite SW character

imagine: you come there to say some Star Wars lines and suddenly the Joker yells "Noooo!" behind you.
“You fell for the old joker gag Bat Man”
Hamill is a legend he has always been such a good sport with the fans. Top lad.
“Rogue One is the best Star Wars film I ever watched”
*has seen only Rogue One
She only said that cause it stars a woman
Matteo Grittani she didn’t even mention the classic Star Wars movies
I'm a long time Star Wars fan and have to admit that Rogue One is right up there with ESB. Really was a great movie.
Macsy Revenge is definitely one of the best.
Along with Empire Strikes back and Last Jedi
Martin O'Rourke That was exactly my reaction when I read that lol
What an amazing sense of humor he has
Ahh, THE BEST!

...a little bit of a Trickster.
3:52 the guy claims to be a “super fan” but he doesn’t even get the line right,it’s “No,I am your father”
Mandela effect
A lot of people think it begins with “Luke...”. Mandela Effect at work
No, it’s not a Mandela effect, it’s just a common misconception.
@@paulmccartneystoenail4897 That's pretty much the Mandela Effect.
@@paulmccartneystoenail4897 common misconception is mandela effect, man
"Rogue One is my favorite too, less me more fun!" Mark Hamill trying to bridge the divide xD
Ruined what Star Wars traditions?
It only "ruined" assumptions that people who didn't look into any lore should've figured out anyway. Like that there was a time with no jedi, and that the rebellion isn't all fun and games. Or there's political feuds in the Empire and someone had to design the death star and the plans had to be stolen. All of these are either implied or outright told to us in the prologue text for episode 4. Read it after watching Rogue One and it's uncanny the similarities. People : "Eww Force Awakens is just an episode 4 clone."
Same people : "OMG Rogue One is too different, it's not Star Wars."
I say Rogue One is one of the best Star Wars movies, but TFA is garbage (exept Kylo Ren's light saber, Flame Troopers, Phasma and the music)
Yeah, that was kinda sad.
They didn't include the opening text and instead included a prologue. You get the back story of the text opening while differentiating it from the main saga. Besides if Rogue One has an issue it's a lack of "show don't tell."
If they used a text scroll to show us Jyns childhood and introduce us to the characters it would've been way too much exposition.
