Duel of the fates, the soundtrack helps a lot
For the same reason, the intro to Episode III. The fadeout from the title crawl to the war drums to the epic space battle. I LOVE that shit, so underrated.
I will do what I must
The final space battle in Rogue One, old school moustaches and all
There are so many good ones but here are a couple that came to mind when I saw this question:
From RotJ: “Never. I’ll never turn to the dark side. You’ve failed, your highness. I am a Jedi, like my father before me.”
From ESB: “I don’t believe it!” “That is why you fail.” plus Yoda’s “luminous beings” speech.
From Andor: Kino Loy’s “one way out” monologue over the intercom during the prison break.
From Mando: the part in The Tragedy when Fett goes absolutely fucking HAM on the bucketheads as they’re trying to advance at the base of the mountain (this is the one scene that got me super stoked for the Boba Fett series)
From Boba Fett:
Unironically, “you were my brother, Anakin. I loved you” though I suppose it is more of just a line rather than a whole scene. Ewan was too good for those films.
The trench run, and specifically the sequence of Luke being left as last man standing when Biggs is killed, then “Use the force, Luke,” “You may fire when ready,”, “I have you now,” and “You’re all clear kid, now let’s blow this thing and go home,” BOOOOOM!!!
Just absolute movie perfection.
Oh and also, “I love you,” “I know”.
The finality of Rogue One, Order 66, Luke looking into the double sunset, and Luke choosing to not kill his father after defeating him even though the emperor wants him to.
“So, you have a twin sister. Your feelings have now betrayed her, too. Obi-Wan was wise to hide her from me. Now his failure is complete.”
And then the music goes, Luke fights back, emperor cackling, just greatness.
That’s the service post in a row that I misread: I was like, who watches Star Wars for science?
Episode 8 wasn’t great but that scene in the red throne looking room was pretty cool.
The battle of crait from the last Jedi with the red salt was visually stunning and doesn’t really get much credit.
Honestly that’s the strongest part of the sequels for me they are truly beautiful visually
Death of Maul in Rebels. After years of searching for his self imposed rival desiring the revenge for all the years of pain he had endured he finds a withered old man who had moved on. Obi-Wan rises to meet his once mortal enemy baiting him with the starting form that his master had used all those years ago. Maul takes the bait and is cut down by the man he had hated for most of his life. In his dying moments he is held and reassured by the same man that the Force, the only thing that Maul had left would be at balance once again. It’s lasts seconds but it’s like a painting in motion with how much is going on
Adam Driver in the shirtless scene. Aka ‘Ben Swolo’ doing the ‘the force’ video call with Rey.
The entire joke that Last Week Tonight with John Oliver ran about this was fantastic.
Is that where John Oliver got his crush on Adam Driver from? Let me see if I saw that episode of Last Week Tonight…
Yep, it ran for a whole season.
Edit: I don’t remember which season it was on, it was a couple of seasons ago. Probably just after the Ben Swolo thing became popular.
The asteroid field in Empire. The music is some of my favorite in the series, and the tie fighters getting taken out by asteroids was so cool
Seen lots of things mentioned already, but I found the absolute power of the Death Star destruction in Rogue One amazing. The Jedha destruction scene is scary like an atom bomb.
Luthen’s monologue in Andor. Some of the best dialogue in all of Star Wars.
