  • Hard disagree. The opening theme is part of the show. It’s a secret Star Trek call.

    A few years back I was waiting for an elevator and randomly the song got stuck in my head. I started to hum/sing the song, quietly, but getting louder as I waited for the elevator. I didn’t notice but another man had also had begun to wait for the elevator. “Is that the Enterprise theme?” He asked? And we shared a conversation about a show each of us had watched 20+ years ago.

    You gotta watch with the theme song.


  • Let’s talk Vader.

    Vader didn’t even know about Leia until Luke leaks it in RotJ. During the Vader/Luke duel is the first and only time Vader acknowledged Leia. Luke’s thoughts turned to her during that fight. Vader saw that “weakness”, the attachment, and he leapt on it. And it worked (for a moment).

    Now it’s possible Vader had a rough idea of her existence near the finale of Empire. Luke calls out to Leia. Leia is with Luke when Vader calls out to Luke. I expect Vader was too distracted to notice Leia.

    Back to A New Hope. Vader doesn’t suspect anything until Obi-wan shows up on the Death Star. Why is Obi-wan here? What is he doing? Then he just disappears? Something about the crew he arrived with is suspicious. Then during the Death Star trench run. He is focused. Vader can sense something. Vader can sense something that can not be. Obi-wan has a Padawan? Why now? Who? Then Han Solo fires at him. Vader should have seen it coming, but he was distracted.

    Sooo! Vader seeing Leia opening? He just had no idea.
