Seven of the most significant blunders from the Star Wars movies…
In Episode IV, Admiral Motti, riding high on the whole “Death Star” thing, finally decides he’s going to tell Vader off just like he practiced over the phone with his mother. After bragging that he’s not scared of Vader, he tells him that his “sad devotion to that ancient religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes, or given you clairvoyance enough to find the rebels’ hidden fortress… [Choking sounds].” Clearly Motti doesn’t realize that he was only named for the sake of the action figure packaging and will not be returning for any of the sequels.
I don’t see Obi-Wan’s line “You can’t win, Darth. If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine” feature however… just how powerful can a ghost – hanging about on a swamp planet at that – possibly be?
