I just noticed why the 'NOOOO' thing is so funny to me. It reminds me of Xavier: Renegade Angel, who often witnesses something happen and then shouts "Nooo!" while the camera zooms into his eye for a flashback. Having Darth scream this before/while picking up the Emperor, it sort feels like Lucas really wants to zoom into Vader's eye and cut to a flashback montage of a bunch of prequel scenes so that us idiot audience can further connect the dots between his troubled past and the serious deep soul-searching he is undergoing at that moment.

i'd never noticed (tho i haven't seen these since i was a teenager, actually) (they were aight) quite how godzilla-suitish darth vader's movements are when he's picking the emperor up. not much of a rig to move in, i guess

it's ok if cheesy screams are part of the original canonical work ("game over, man, game over!"), but retconning cheesy screams is just gauche

I'm not playing devil's advocate here, but I will tip my hat to Lucas's cynical genius is this way: the neighborhood kids around here were all introduced to the "Star Wars" flicks via the (more) childish prequels, and parents generally didn't let them watch the original trilogy until they were older. At which point the damage was done, because those same neighborhood kids around here all play Anakin when they play Star Wars, or dress as Anakin for Halloween. Or Darth Not Vader or whomever. I don't think I've ever heard them utter the name "Han Solo," let alone "Luke." It's actually kind of weird, from my vantage.
