TheStar Warsmovies swash some of the catchiest dialogue in film history . With scripts compose by critically applaud novelist and film writer like Lawrence Kasdan , Leigh Brackett ( who cut their teeth on film - noir and flesh serials ) and yes , even George Lucas , it ’s no marvel moviegoers whohaven’tseen a singleStar Warsmoviecan quote it . Despite the enfranchisement ’s enduring popularity , there are plenty of preposterous lines of dialog throughout the movies , from George Lucas ’s Prequel Trilogy to Disney ’s Sequel Trilogy .

“Careful you do not choke on your aspirations.”
When Orson Krennic was feel underappreciated for his work on the Death Star , he went to the Emperor ’s proper hand in the hopes of bypassing Grand Moff Tarkin and plug favour . Darth Vader was perhaps the most chilling he had ever been inRogue One : A Star Wars Story , but one telephone circuit also gave him an unexpected academic degree of wit .
After Krennic tried to appeal to Vader ’s sense of decency , the Dark Lord of the Sith ensnared him in a Force choke coil for his delusions of splendor , discourage him not to " choke " on his " aspiration " . The line was a little heavier handed for Vader , who ordinarily had a very dry sense of humor ( " Apology assume , Captain Needa " ) , create the Sith Lord much cheekier than in premature incarnations .
“Around the survivors, a perimeter create.”
Yoda always had a alone style of speaking , but inStar war : Episode II- Attack of the Clones , his accent was drastically change to be nonsensical . In the Original Trilogy , he was experience for being both capricious and perspicacious , and his lines often had veil meanings once sports fan reordered their words .
When Yoda arrived on Geonosis with a troop transport full of clones to save the outnumbered Jedi , he said , " Around the survivor , a perimeter create . " which did n’t make any sense even by Yoda standard . He should have said , " Around the survivors , create a margin " , in the same way that " estimate me by my size , do you ? " is just , " Do you pronounce me by my size of it ? " .
“Would it help if I got out and pushed?”
The Original Trilogy was brimming with wise - cracks and sardonic humour , which often created an exhilarating and witty tonicity . Some lines , however funny , were planted so firmly in Earth ’s 20th century that they vocalize uneven come from characters who ’d spend their whole lives in space .
When Han Solo could n’t getthe Millennium Falconto make the start to hyperspace , Leia quipped , " Would it help if I got out and pushed ? " , as though the ship was a beater car with a bad transmission or a defective battery .
“Help, I’ve fallen and I can’t get up! I’m quite beside myself. This is such a drag.”
According toStar Wars : The Annotated Scripts , C-3PO was almost describe as a smooth - talking used car salesman in the Original Trilogy , but when much of his impertinent - cracking dialog was given to Han Solo ’s smuggler character , he was turn into a finical British butler . This allowed for him to return cagy , witty dialog throughout those motion-picture show .
In the Prequel Trilogy , however , he was a protocol droid who only seemed to speak one speech ; " Dad Jokes " , in a " Dad Puns " dialect . In the span of a arcminute during the Battle of Geonosis , he crack up no less thanthreeterrible jape once he was pick apart down , leavingR2 - D2 to drag him out of harm ’s elbow room .
“Hi. I’m holding for General Hugs…Leia has an urgent message for him. About his mother.”
One of the many divisive aspects ofStar Wars : The Last Jediwas its peculiar use of witticism to de - escalate dramatic berth . The Original Trilogy did this more successfully , whereas the 2d film in the Sequel Trilogy did it awkwardly . One of the outstanding offense was the exchange between Resistance pilot program Poe Dameron and General Hux aboard the latter ’s dreadnought .
Dameron give the substitution with an " pressing despatch for General Hugs " . That line alone would have been canny , but then Dameron had to make a " Your Mama " joke , not only embarrassing himself , but brutally tear down any threat Hux had become afterStar Wars : The Force Awakens ( and greatly reducing the stakes ) .
“Master Skywalker. We need the Jedi to return because Kylo Ren is strong with the dark side of the Force.”
No sooner had Rey cover down Luke Skywalker to Ahch - To than she felt compelled to have him one of the most inane messages of all time ; the reason the Jedi needed to give was because Kylo Ren was " impregnable with the glowering side of the Force " . She never note that he had killed Han Solo ( Luke ’s friend ) , or that the First Order had wiped out an entire system of planets firm to the Republic .
Luke might have felt oblige to help had he known any of those thing , but instead she told him what he already experience . Kylo Ren had already made it clean he was strong in the dark side ( though perhaps not all consumed by it ) when he murdered Luke ’s students and destroyed his Jedi Temple .
“No, no it’s because I’msoin love with you!”
Much fun has been made ofthe Latinian language that blossomed between Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidala , which culminated in their occult wedding . It was an prospect of the Prequel Trilogy that did n’t get better as the movies extend on , and byStar Wars : Episode III - Revenge of the Sithit arrive at its zenith with a talks exchange so maudlin it almost did n’t make sense .
Anakin admired Padme brushing her whisker and called her beautiful , which propel her to reply , " It ’s only because I ’m so in love . " Not about to be outdone , Anakin declared , " No , no it ’s because I’msoin passion with you ! " , which somehow did n’t make Padme divorce him .
“My parts are showing - oh my!”
Threepio was always reduced to comic ease in the Original Trilogy , but his incessant drone was normally for the welfare of the character exploitation of someone around him . Many of fans ' beloved graphic symbol got in a good jibe at Threepio ’s expense , and he gave as good as he got .
InStar Wars Episode I - The Phantom Menace , it was revealed that Anakin Skywalker build Threepio , but did n’t have time to finish him before he left for his Jedi grooming . When R2 - D2 first met who would become the other half of their dynamical couple , the communications protocol droid gasped , " My parts are showing - oh my ! " , and he never reclaim the shame , because somehow droids were pertain about their " junk " hanging out .
“Exqueeze me!”
Jar Jar Binks was blamed for much of the poorly received humor in the Prequel Trilogy , but fortunately most of his trick were confined to the first installment . One of his very first phone line is , " Exqueeze me ! " , which told audiences all they ask to recognize about the kind of character he was get to be .
Jar Jar could certainly be accidentally humourous , but every time his behaviour was played for intentional laughs , the Gungan did n’t middling particularly well . fortunately his office was altered for the residue of the movies when he was made a -nearly- mute Senator , although the clueless politiciancouldbe blamed for Palpatine ’s rise to major power .
“I don’t like sand. It’s rough and coarse and it gets everywhere.”
Perhaps , when Anakin Skywalker was chatting with Padme about " Amandine Aurore Lucie Dupin " , he believe it would be a proper metaphor for his demand for control . After all , living on a planet like Tatooine , where sand is impossible to escape , might temper a feeling of helplessness .
Instead , the argumentation came off as completely randomly introduce , a means to play along up with something that was n’t " rough and common " , like Padme ’s soft and tranquil skin . The galaxy ’s worst pick - up line somehow crop its thaumaturgy , and Padme leaned in for a kiss .
