: I just heard there's going to be an extra scene included in the DVD release
: of EMPIRE STRIKES BACK coming up next year!
: Basically, it expands on the scene where Vader reveals his fatherhood to Luke, and ties up some loose ends created with the release of Episode 1...
: The Empire Strikes Back: Extra-Special Edition
: -----------------------------------------------
: INT: BESPIN GANTRY - MOMENTS LATER:
: A furious lightsaber duel is underway. DARTH VADER is backing LUKE SKYWALKER towards the end of the gantry.
: A quick move by Vader, chops off Luke's hand! It goes spinning off into the
: ventilation shaft.
: Luke backs away. He looks around, but realizes there's nowhere to go but
: straight down.
: Darth Vader: Obi Wan never told you what happened to your father.
: Luke: He told me enough! He told me you killed him!
: Darth Vader: No... I am your father!
: Luke: No, it's not true! It's impossible.
: Darth Vader: Search your feelings... you know it to be true...
: Luke: NO!
: Darth Vader: Yes, it is true.. and you know what else? You know that brass droid of yours?
: Luke: Threepio?
: Darth Vader: Yes... Threepio... I built him... when I was 7 years old...
: Luke: No...
: Darth Vader: Seven years old! And what have you done? Look at yourself, no hand, no job, and couldn't even levitate your own ship out of the swamp...
: Luke: I destroyed your precious Death Star!
: Darth Vader: When you were 20! When I was 10, I single-handedly destroyed a
: Trade Federation Droid Control ship!
: Luke: Well, it's not my fault...
: Darth Vader: Oh, here we go... "Poor me... my father never gave me what I wanted for my birthday... boo hoo, my daddy's the Dark Lord of the Sith... waahhh wahhh!"
: Luke: Shut up...
: Darth Vader: You're a slacker! By the time I was your age, I had exterminated the Jedi knights!
: Luke: I used to race my T-16 through Beggar's Canyon...
: Darth Vader: Oh, for the love of the Emperor... 10 years old, winner of the Boonta Eve Open... Only human to ever fly a Pod Racer... right here baby!
: Luke looks down the shaft. Takes a step towards it.
: Darth Vader: I was wrong... You're not my kid... I don't know whose you are,
: but you sure ain't mine...
: Luke takes a step off the platform, hesitates, then plunges down the shaft.
: Darth Vader looks after him.
: Darth Vader: Get a haircut!
That seems to look like some sort of parody... "Poor me... my father never gave me what I wanted for my birthday... boo hoo, my daddy's the Dark Lord of the Sith... waahhh wahhh!" ... especially that or the fact that he tells him to get a haircut...
