If you’ve ever found yourself facepalming or scratching your head in a Star Wars movie, it was probably at one of these moments.
Star Wars is a franchise with wild ups and downs. After the original trilogy came out, the franchise was hailed as an impact moment on cinema as a whole and looked to as iconic by those who grew up watching the films. Since then, the franchise has been anything but consistent with the creator himself, George Lucas, going back to even his original work to insert changes that received a mixed reception from fans. While there are parts of both the prequel and sequel trilogy that many people love, their reception was undeniably more mixed than the original trilogy’s.
The franchise has had its highs and lows, along with some just plain confusing decisions, it is one that many people still look back to fondly. This isn’t here to take away from how anybody feels about Star Wars but more of as an article to look back on some of the series’ mistakes and hopefully be able to laugh about them.
The clips really do speak for themselves. Without further ado, here are our top ten most infamous moments in Star Wars.
