Question: What is your favorite overdramatic Star Wars "NO!" (v2.noooo)

Current Poll Results:
50%
  TPM - Obi-Wan when Qui-Gon bites it (48 votes)
2%
  AOTC - Qui-Gon's odd little voiceover (2 votes)
13%
  ROTS - you know which part (13 votes)
6%
  ANH - Luke when Obi-Wan bites it (6 votes)
28%
  ESB - who's your daddy? (27 votes)
Total Votes: 96 (Days Left: 29)

I decided to finally fix this thread and start from scratch, a mere 14 months after ROTS.

(1) Added ROTS's little slip-in of the line.
(2) Removed ROTJ's, as it's "NEVER" Luke shouts, not "No!"


For me, TPM takes it. Ewan was the only one able to really sell the 'noooo' and make it seem real to me.

The Fireplace scene in AOTC. It's the only scene in the whole SAGA I can't watch. I fast-foward through it every time. I know it's not as dramatic as what's mentioned in the pole but I know it's very important. Anakin is professing his love to Padme. What can be more dramatic than Vader telling Luke, "I'm your Father?" The dialouge just makes me cringe. I know it's Shakespearian but it seems out of place.

^ More to the point, the fireplace scene doesn't contain a "NOOOO"... confused

Sorry, I picked Luke in ANH. Of all the choices I felt Luke had the most emotion. Ben at the time was the closest to a father he had and to see him die in front of him was extremely emotional. He was just learning about the Force and his Father and then to have his mentor die in front of him was so tramatic. He named his first son after Ben, so obviously 30 years later the impact of Ben's death was still there.

TPM's
with RotS as a close second mischief
AotC's means a lot, but the delivery is meh and it's not even Liam
ANH's is good
and Luke's face in TESB's is too funny to be the greatest tongue

TPM's is the most believable and appropriate, so it gets my vote.

TPM - Obi-Wan when Qui-Gon bites it

What everyone has said about it is true. You can also still feel the "Noooooo" on Obi-Wan's breath in the following fight, which gives it even more depth.
