"I am a Jedi, like my father before me."
Return of the Jedi will always be my favorite Star Wars movie. I had it on VHS and It was the only Star Wars movie I had growing up so I just watched it over and over. It left a huge impact on my life, I basically based all my morals and values off of Luke Skywalker, so this movie will always have a very important place in my heart
It also a huge impact on your UA-cam username
@@knownpleasures that’s true, although Luke Starkiller was actually the placeholder name used in A New Hope until George changed it last second, so really it has more to do with that movie, but the reason I’m even this interested in Luke is because of Return of the Jedi, so you’re technically not wrong
No mark Hamill?
@@mattruth8763 did you mean to reply that to my comment or was that just a comment for the video?

Ian McDiarmid is a gem. Very entertaining 😊🎉
He is a first and foremost a classically trained Scottish actor which is also his first passion. He is far larger than just Star Wars as far as his contribution to British theatre.
Ming-Na Wen is so gorgeous. I adore her.
Ming Na... 🔥😍🔥
Making nearly 60 years old the new 30! And, still, just as athletic as ever!
She's amazing. 👍
I was privileged to meet Anthony Daniels at the Sydney premier of Jedi when i was 15 years old. He signed a paperback book of RTOJ, "To Steve, with force - Anthony Daniels" in gold pen sadly that book vanished along with my ex wifes departure. But i still have the memory of shaking hands with and talking face to face with C3PO. A surreal experience that i will always treasure.
I still remember the first time I saw the scene where Vader threatened to turn Leia and Luke went nuts. Still give me goosebumps like no other scene in film. And the music that played during the scene... woh.
I love return of the Jedi one of best star wars
I expected bigger cheers for all the guys from the OT
May the force be with you!
It was the greatest sci-fi blockbuster movie of 1983 from 20th Century-Fox and Lucasfilm Ltd.
all hail king George, and each of these living legends.
Ming Na... 🔥😍🔥

She's amazing. 👍
I thought she was 30 😂😮
@@Iliah97I assumed she was 40
Ian still owns the show.
Got all his marbles, self-awareness and humour.
Top lad.
Now all you got to do is release the panels with all the cool trailers like skeleton crew, acolyte, andor season 2, and the movie panel
@Derpy Kitty This full panel was released on May 25th 2023 which is the 40th anniversary of Return of the Jedi so I am not sure the other panels will be release in full like this.
They’re not releasing the studio showcase.
Please post the other panels that weren't livestreamed, even if they're edited down to remove exclusive footage! It's been long enough since the convention, and we just want to Celebrate Star Wars with everyone else!
I was almost two months old when RotJ came out, my father introduced me to Star Wars, and I'm always grateful for him that he did.
Return of the Jedi is a masterpiece
May the force be with you. Proud to be a Star Wars fan
I love MING NA!
If it showing again,iam going to watch it again
Billy D just came to get paid.
Yea...he's usually upbeat about these things though.
I Am A Jedi! Like My Father Before Me! Happy 40th Anniversary of Return of the Jedi!
Ming Na is 🔥.
One of my favourite films of all time
That is one incredible woman.❤
Jesus Christ poor Billy Dee Williams
When 86 years are you look as good you will not
what Ryan Mulcahey said
Billie D is the shizzle! No one can hold a candle to him!
@@ryanmulcahey9810 He looks good but not sure about his mental faculties.
He is like that in Person. He don't like public speaking. That was in 1999.
I was there. Felt sorry for Billy Dee Williams.
Why’s that
@@switchfootfan598 He didn't seen to happy to be there for whatever reason. Felt sorry for Ming cause she had to deal with those awkward answers from him.
@@CueDaNinja it’s old age
I've noticed that they tried to cut him off while billy was still talking about his new book.
@@switchfootfan598 Clearly had trouble hearing what was being said and Ming Na Wen did her best but didn’t seem to understand he couldn’t hear.
Hope Billy is okay. He seems very disorientated and unwell.
No different than Joe Biden.
@@winksm I am removing my comment. I am not sure why people have to make everything into a divisive insult on someone else
@@SJHFoto
Trump has "a strong influence on the weakminded" thus why his supporters think 4th grade schoolyard insults toward those don't like or disagree with is the right way to act.
@@adamn7516 Only God's Kingdom can bring true peace and security. I am TOTALLY neutral as far as politics. I am not bashing one side or the other
I love Ming-Na wen:))
Ming-Na Wen is such a funny lady ! And better looking than women half her age. She's perfect !
Thanks for this! 🌌 #StarWars #StarWarsCelebration #ReturnOfTheJedi #40YearsOfReturnOfTheJedi
Thanks Aunt Vesuvi!
You're very welcome, Anakin. 🫂
i love this !!!!!!!!!
It's unfortunate that Carrie Fisher is no longer with us to celebrate this milestone
Rest in Peace, Princess
Yes they don't even remember her passing a way here and it's very insensitive and no respect to our ever loving Princess Leia. 😭
Ming Na Wen was a freshman in College in 1983?! Wow she looks like she's just in her 40s. She's actually 59.
Yes she is absolutely beautiful!
@@Spec279 Yeah, even her body is still banging.
This is the movie that made me a fan and later made me want to be a writer and now a writer, I am 😊
Star Wars is the very best
Return of the Jedi is on the back end of my favorite Star Wars movies typically but I saw it in theaters again this year and it was just just fantastic.
I’m
Angry I didn’t know they were doing a run in theaters missed it found out the day it finished
What's a Return of the Jedi panel without the Return of the Jedi????
Literally 😂
Harrison doesn't care, Carrie is gone, Mark doesn't care, james earl Jones is 90
She was a great host!
Happy fortieth anniversary to Episode VI! 🤩
I LOVE ALL 3 OF THE ORIGINAL STAR WARS !
Jedi ruled and so did the ewoks- not a weak entry at all- also so many cool puppets ❤
Luke was like Nah.
May the force be with you all!
Ming-Na Wen is a 59 year old woman. Let that sink in
Asian don't crack!
The battle by Sarlaac, the speeder bike chase, the battle for Endor, the bit when Luke loses his mind, so many classic scenes. Jedi is the best entry without a shadow of a doubt
'take your time' was such an underrated statement by that guy
Today is the ACTUAL 40th Anniversary date!
“ How Could They Be Jamming Us, If They Don’t Know We Are…………It’s A Trap “👌
Still here, still loving it all, still strong with the force! :)
Hello there, Agent May!
Why does Kathleen Kennedy still have a job??
Gender armor.
Nice panel but what was going on with Billy Dee? Did someone upset him backstage before the panel? Doesn't take The Force to sense all the negative energy that was being put out.
ROTJ was huge! I was twelve years old, and this was what we thought would be the last Star Wars film. After growing up with the first two films, the anticipation for the third film in this trilogy was off the charts.
My family and I happened to be in Chapel Hill, NC when Jedi first came out. I remember several shows were sold out and we had to get tickets for a showing late in the day! That’s the only time in my life that’s ever happened. I also remember several scenes towards the end where people were literally standing in the theater and cheering.
Amazing. A major cultural event. The only other film I can compare it with is the 89 Batman.
28:10 “They don’t need any introduction”
Proceeds to introduce him
Ming-Na Wen doesn’t look a day over 40 it’s nuts
LOL, I know, when she said she graduated from college when ROTJ came out, I was like, wait, what, is this an old video?
She looks amazing and her physicality in the characters she has played in the last decade is amazing too.
Yessss
My friend and I walked to the theater every day for a week after school to see Return of the Jedi.
....I know the force is all inside of us....
Man I wish mark hamill Harrison ford and Jemas earl Jones would be there, I know mark and jemas are retired from playing villains but still it couldn't hurt to visit the convention. But it's their decision
It's James.
@@Carabas72 I’m bad but nevertheless
These events are annually. And I don't know. The star wars family of actors has grown a lot since the original movies. So Disney has a bigger roster of cast members to invite to these events. And since they do this twice a year, 1 in the Americas and 1 in Europe. Its easier to switch up invitations based on avaliability.
@@anthonygordon9483 Can't wait 'til they push Daisy Ridley on us when her new movie's coming out. 🙄
He's 90!!!
The sad thing about these Celebration videos is half the commenters (thus viewers) are the same people that showed up in person.
I wonder if Billy Dee Williams is ill. Unlike Harrison Ford that sometimes exhibits an "I'm not a Star Wars fan" vibe, Mr Williams seems ill to me
Even though it’s not stated officially… looking at Billy D I’m worried about his aging mental health. His mannerisms and speech is similar to older people with dementia. I’ve had experience dealing with people with dementia and I can tell he is definitely experiencing it in some form. Felt sorry for him here, knowing how funny and light he used to be.
It's surprising that no one prepared Ming-Na Wen for the fact that he might be difficult to talk to. She could've asked him easier questions. Was everyone taken by surprise by his state of mind?
I was thinking this too. Poor man
Jedi 🎉❤❤❤
Love all 3 Star Wars movie,stood in a 2 hour line in New York,just to see A New Hope
LUKE SKYWALKER FOREVER!!!!
OMG Ming Na Wen Ive been in love with you since the 90s Hi my lady :*) Aaaawwww :D
I love this movie and Emperor in it ❤
I met everyone except Warwick.
He's done you there Warwick.
Let’s goooo
Moderator Melinda/Moderator Mulan!
ROTJ was the first movie I ever saw in a movie theater.
I'd like to see Forrest Gump as a Jedi.
Return of the Jedi was the first Star Wars movie I saw in the theater. To this day, is still my favorite. Although Empire is the best of the OT. You never forget your first. Are we talking about movies?
Doug Chang is a walking W!!
Definitely the best Star Wars movie 🙏
definitely not even close
@@mws755 opinions 🤷
Ming is adorable
Billy Dee on a different planet...
"Are you still on Tatooine, Billy?"
Hey congratulations 40th
Well, looks like we won’t be seeing Billy Dee on stage anymore.
I don't see how he's going to finish that book with the state he's in. I wouldn't count on him to finish reading a book let alone writing one.
Phenomenal 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I’m like you were a freshman in college when Rotj came out? No way you’re 60. I had to look it up. Can’t believe you’re 59. That’s crazy
It was painful to watch Billy dee Williams answering
I saw ROTJ in the theater at age 6 and it was my introduction to Star Wars! Sadly, it spoiled the first two movies for me completely! I was an instant fan though, and can never forget the piles of merchandise in all the stores and in every kid's house back then! I got the Kenner Ewok Village for Christmas, woo-hoo!
Amazing ggg
Who let lando on stage in that condition?
Perfect ending
The real ending!!! XD
Gooooood... Your hate has made you powerful now fulfill your destiny and take your father's place at my side.
One day SW will be great again. Cause the fans passion will win in the end! The producer of Rogue One, Gareth Edwards is huge SW fan.
If she could just get off her phone and present, I would be able to watch this
Yessir
Release the theatrical cuts
omg !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Soooo... Where's Mark Hamill?
He talked in the beginning In a video he recorded
@@Mari-km2tm That's what I'm saying
What's going on with BDW? Does he have dementia?
Star wars fans should be more like Fennec Actress and less like Tatooine (you know full of sand and salt)
Where's Mark Hamill, what happened, was he left out, usually he's the front center at all SW convention...
None of them like Anthony Daniels. It's so obvious
#40 YEARS RETURN of the JEDI, STAR WARS! ;) :) 😮❤🎉😂😅😊
