    What Is Your Favorite Star Wars Memory?

    With a brand new era of Star Wars content on the way, the Wired staff has been reminiscing about their favorite memories of the saga.

    So when Return of the Jedi came out I was like

    seven years old, and a friend and I entered a trivia contest

    down at the mall, and we won second place,

    and we both got a huge dishwasher-sized

    cardboard box full of Star Wars merchandise.

    I could not have been more excited about it,

    and then I opened it up, and 95% of it

    was Darth Vader belt buckles and Princess Leia shampoos,

    and like one IG-88 figure, but we still got second place.

    My favorite part in Star Wars is the trash compactor scene

    where Luke, Han, and Leia start cheering, but C-3PO

    still thinks that they're being slowly crushed to death.

    I remember being a kid and coming home from a Star Wars

    movie and being very excited about light sabers.

    In college I was super stoked for Episode III to come out,

    but then I took a really hot date out to see the movie,

    and she really hated it, it was super violent,

    and it was just a flop.

    My favorite part is when the guy with big head

    crashes into the control panel.

    [Male] Dude, that's from Spaceballs.

    What are we talking about?

    When I was a kid I used to go dumpster diving

    at the Egg Factory looking for artifacts that would

    give some clue as to what was happening in the next movie,

    and I never actually found anything,

    except once I found a, retrieved a message pad

    that had a phones message indicating

    that Steven Spielberg had called, and please call him back,

    and that was I think after Empire,

    and before Raiders of the Lost Ark.

    And then I eventually stopped doing that.

    In preparation for the story,

    I watched all six movies in one weekend, it was exhausting.

    My favorite scene in Star Wars

    are the opening credits from Episode IV.

    I remember seeing it in the theater as a kid,

    and every time I see it since then,

    I still get that same emotional charge

    that I did that very first time.

    So my favorite part is where Vader is commissioning

    all of the bounty hunters to chase Han Solo.

    All of these crazy, reptilian, and robot characters

    that you never see anywhere else in any of the movies.

    Yeah, those guys are my, my favorites.

    Okay I'm just gonna say it.

    I heart Jar Jar Binks.

    I'm here to defend Star Wars Episode I.

    Sure it had annoying characters like Jar Jar Binks,

    and terrible racing scenes, but it had the most

    badass character in the entire saga, Darth Maul.

    As an eight year-old Star Wars fan,

    I used to trim out little paper Ewoks,

    tape them to the bottom of my paper airplanes

    to recreate those Endor scenes.

    My favorite Star Wars moment is the part in Empire

    where Lando gets eaten by the sand monster,

    'cause I never liked that guy.

    I'd say in Empire when Lando Calrissian betrays Han Solo.

    Something about when that door opens,

    and Darth Vader stands up in that all-white room

    and Boba Fett comes in behind, and Han Solo,

    without even thinking, pulls his blaster out,

    opens fire, and Darth Vader just blocks it with his hand.

    Everyone in that scene is an utter badass.

    So me and my roommates were sitting around.

    I recently purchased a projector,

    and we were watching the Star Wars films, the original ones,

    and we sat around talking about how when we were kids

    we didn't get to see it actually in movie theaters,

    but all of us actually very distinctly remember

    the size of the TV that we watched it on,

    and me and my brothers when we were kids

    watched it on a TV about this big.

    So it was a much better experience this time around.

    Best line from Star Wars,

    when Han Solo slices open the tauntaun and says,

    I thought they smelled bad on the outside.

    Just shortly after I turned 21,

    I went to a science fiction convention in Florida,

    and I was dragged up to a room party by some of my friends.

    That's where I saw the Star Wars holiday special on VHS,

    and I heard rumors about this, and this was pre-internet.

    I got to see Bea Arthur as the owner of the cantina,

    and the original appearance of Boba Fett.

    They didn't want to be there,

    they were contractually obligated to be there,

    and because of it, it makes almost the perfect thing

    to watch as a Star Wars fan if you're intoxicated.

    If you're watching it sober, it's horrible.

    My favorite Star Wars moment is

    well, I actually haven't seen them.
