Jen used the Force to watch the original :)
They're in the Death Star now. Obi-wan just bumped into Darth. I have a vivid memory of the first time seeing that scene in the theater as a kid trying to figure out who would win. I said to myself, "Obi-wan can't win because then the villain would be dead and the movie would be over. But Darth can't win. . .can he?" That was a shock!

[SNIP]
Mark Hamill (MH):(appears on studio monitor)
Uh, it's Mark Hamill here.
Space Ghost (SG):
Whoa! Look who's here, young people! It's none other than Duke Fartknocker!
Moltar (M):
Luke Skywalker!
SG:
Luke Skytopper of the popular "Space War" science fiction mega-empire franchise.
MH:
Uh, I think it's much more along the lines of a fairy tale than it is straightforward science fiction.
SG:
Whatever, professor. How's Chewwy?
MH:
Chewwy? Well, you know...
SG:
(laughs) You and me both!
MH:
(stares back)
SG:
But seriously, Mark... (very quietly) was it scary working with Lord Vader?
M:
(making Darth Vader breathing noises)
MH:
James Earl Jones is just such a gifted person, and-
Zorak (Z):
Prowse.
SG:
Eh?
Z:
David Prowse. He played Vader in the movie version, not Jones.
MH:
(laughs) Hey, I said a dirty word.
Z:
Oh, you did, pal!
M:
David Prowse! Are you joking? If this is a joke, I'm not laughing.
Z:
Prowse is the true Lord Vader!
M:
Prowse? Blpblpblp! He was a figurehead! It is Jones who is the true Vader!
Z:
Answer me this, Moltar: who patrolled the galleys of the Death Star?
M:
The ewoks!
SG:
(laughs)
MH:
(laughs)
Z:
Don't patronize me, bantha fodder!
M:
Well, if you consulted your handbook, you would know it was the storm troopers.
Z:
Yes, of course, but who led them, Moltar? Huh? Who led 'em? Refresh my memory on this one, if you please!
M:
(silent)
Z:
Would that be Pr... Pr.. Pr.. Pro-w-w-w-w-wse?
M:
Prowse, but he-
Z:
Exactly!
M:
But-
Z:
Exactly, Moltar! That's exactly what I thought!
SG:
Hey, what do you fellas think of those Ghostbusters?
Z:
(stares back)
SG:
You think they'd scare me because I'm, you know, I'm a ghost.
MH:
(stares back)
SG:
I mean, hey, Zorak, who ya gonna call?
Z:
I'm gonna call you an idiot.
SG:
What!
Z:
You heard me! Mouth breather!
("Star Wars" type music begins playing in background)
Voice (V):
Trust in your feelings, Tad. Use the powerbands!
SG:
(blast Zorak with destructo ray; music ends)
SG:
(to Mark) Wouldn't be interested in a new career as a sidekick, would you?
MH:
Well, you know, I, uh, it beats Ed McMahon.
SG:
I must warn you, you would be required to laugh at the outrageously hilarious antics of a talk show in outer space!
MH:
(in Ed McMahon voice) Ho ho ho ho, yes! (normal voice) I can do that.
SG:
I like your attitude, Hamill. Come in Monday for paperwork.
MH:
(in Ed McMahon voice) Ho ho ho ho, yes!
SG:
(laughs) Whoa, save some for the convention, buddy!
MH:
(in Ed McMahon voice) Ho ho ho ho, yes!
SG:
(stares back)
MH:
(clears his throat)
SG:
So, what do you do at these conventions? Do you, say, show how you ate breakfast on Tattooine? Is it Tattooine?
MH:
Oh, me eating cereal would be (makes slurping sounds through his hands)
SG:
Hmmm, impressive.
M:
This is just sad.
(Monitor shows huge block of impossible to read but possibly French text)
SG:
That's amazing, Mark. Would you bring your imaginary bowl of cereal to my convention?
MH:
That'd be great, if I'm, um, in your galaxy, I'll stop on by.
SG:
Great! Then I'll see you at "Space Ghost Con '97".
MH:
Thank you so much for having me. (image fades from monitor)
Z:
I don't know, he sounded iffy.
SG:
That's not the Luke Skytopper I know!
Z:
You don't know Luke Skywalker!
SG:
Can you ever really know a man, Zorak? (syrupy music swells in background) I mean, sure, you can know what he does, where he lives, the way his hair smells in the morning after a brief rain... (music stops) Wait a second! I've got to buy supplies for (begin echo effect) "Space Ghost Con '97"! (end echo) (flies off to office supply store, enters by crashing through ceiling) What a selection! You don't have to be a superhero to appreciate these super-savings!
M:
(to Mark, on control room monitor) (impersonating James Earl Jones) "This is CNN."
MH:
(laughs)
M:
Oh, and, uh, "Luke, I am your father."
MH:
(laughs)
M:
Did you get to sign my helmet yet? Uh, "son"?
MH:
Yeah, I signed it.
M:
It was great having you at our "Sci-Fi Con", man.
MH:
Thanks so much.
M:
You're not, really going to "Space Ghost Con", are you?
MH:
No, no, no, I was, I was workin' and I have another job after this, actually.
