Our continuing celebration of The Empire Strikes Back continues with Johnamarie Macias as we discuss Vader’s discussion with the Emperor and the cave scene.
The middle of the second film of the original trilogy concerns two important scenes: Vader’s discussion with the Emperor about Luke Skywalker and Luke’s experience with the phantom Vader in the cave.
On this fully armed and operational episode, we discuss:
- Johnamarie’s experiences and memories of The Empire Strikes Back,
- Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine’s discussion about Luke Skywalker,
- Johnamarie’s insight into Palpatine’s concerns about Luke,
- The original appearance of the Emperor prior to the Special Edition,
- Yoda’s advice to Luke while they train on Dagobah, and
- The impact of Luke’s experience in the cave against a phantom Darth Vader on Dagobah.
