SCENE:
Ben has scared away the Tusken Raiders, and is gathering Luke and the droids for
transport back to his house.
EVENT:
During the attack, one of Threepio's arms falls off. His left arm. However, when we
see Luke pick up the severed arm, it appears to be Threepio's right arm.

SCENE:
Ben and Luke are gathering up the dismembered Threepio.
EVENT:
Luke is on the right of the screen, helping Ben to pick up Threepio. If you look
just below the severed shoulder on Threepio as he is being picked up, there are a
few split seconds where you can see Anthony Daniels' (the actor portraying
Threepio) arm bent back behind his body, trying to stay out of sight.

Is Threepio On Or Off?

|
|
| |
|
SCENE:
Luke, Ben and the droids are in Ben's hut and Ben is telling Luke of his father.
EVENT:
Threepio requests that he be powered off if he is not going to be needed, and Luke
complies. But when Ben brings out Anakin's lightsaber to show Luke, when he powers
it on, you can see Threepio noticeably moving from the actor breathing inside
the suit.

The Disappearing Wall Hanging
|
0h 32m 01s
0h 32m 23s SE
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
SCENE:
Just after Ben gets out Anakin's lightsaber.
EVENT:
There is a "shawl" hanging on the wall which temporarily disappears, and then
reappears in Obi Wan's house. It looks like a medium-brown macrame blanket. It is
hanging on the left side of the plaster arch in the house. Notice it casts a shadow
that sticks out to the left of the shadow cast by the arch, and just below the
circular panel with the five lights on it. Right after Ben says "This is the weapon
of a Jedi Knight . . .," the shawl disappears. After Luke turns off his saber, it is back.

Choppy Lightsaber
|
0h 32m 05s
0h 32m 27s SE
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
SCENE:
Any scene where a lightsaber is ignited or retracted.
EVENT:
During every scene featuring lightsabers in Star Wars IV: A New Hope, when a
lightsaber is ignited or retracted, the picture jumps around and becomes very
choppy. This is because the special effects had not been developed for this very
well. What you are seeing is the film being stopped, the actors trying to remain
perfectly still, while the lightsaber hilt is replaced for a "lit" lightsaber,
which, during filming, was a stick placed in the lightsaber hilt.

Nice Reflection
|
0h 32m 13s
0h 32m 35s SE
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
SCENE:
Luke is playing with his new lightsaber.
EVENT:
After Luke turns on the lightsaber, he swings it around. Watch Threepio on the left
of the screen, and you can see the reflection of Luke's saber as he swings it. The
blooper is that the reflection is of the solid stick, and not the coloured light
that it should be.

They Shouldn't Move

SCENE:
In Ben Kenobi's house when Artoo is playing the holographic message of Leia.
EVENT:
You'll notice the small table that Ben and Luke are sitting around, and Artoo is
playing the message onto. Before the hologram begins, when we see the table, there
appears to be two small objects resembling salt and pepper shakers, as well as a
bowl or small kettle. When the hologram begins, and the camera's angle changes, the
bowl disappears, and even the shakers appear to have moved, albeit subtly. When
the hologram disappears, the bowl returns to the table.
