Notes
Film
- Starts with Luke and Vader attacking each other with lightsabers, and ends with them attacking each other with lightsabers.
- The shot of Vader at the bottom of the stairs and Luke at the top mirrors their positions in the story arc.
- Master swordsman Bob Anderson stands in for David Prowse in this scene.
Podcast
- Lightsaber® brand laser swords.
- Darth Vader falling down the stairs.
- Mentioned: Lewis Carroll's satirical parody Father William.
- Luke and Vader fight like 8-year-olds.
- Mentioned: "Boyfights".
- An Ewok-free cut of the battle, and the opposite, all-ewok cut.
- How Ben Burtt captures all these unusual sounds. He's mic'ed at all times. He's like Edward Microphonehands.
