Trivia

This is in the Special Edition of The Empire Strikes Back. Darth Vader returns to his Star Destroyer (just after the Millennium Falcon retrieves Luke from underneath Cloud City). The shot that is used to show Vader walking down the shuttle ramp and into the Shuttle Bay is from Return of the Jedi (different angle) when he enters the Death Star at the beginning. You can see Moff Jerjerod just before the end of the shot. See more...

Mistake Continuity: When the Empire ship shoots asteroids in the asteroid field, the first one explodes before the laser even hits it.

Mistake Revealing: When Luke runs into Vader again after being sucked out the window, as they are fighting in the control room, watch closely: Vader's lightsabre hits the wall a couple of times, but the explosions are not where the sabre touches the wall.

Mistake Continuity: When Luke uses the Force to lift a rock, there are different rocks in the wideshot and the close-up, and the distance between the rocks on the ground changes between the two shots.

Mistake Continuity: When Vader addresses the bounty hunters, Piett says, "Bounty hunters-We don't need their scum.", and starts walking towards a corner. In the next shot, he is already at that corner.

Mistake Continuity: Viewed from inside, the hotel where Leia, Han and Chewbacca are in Cloud City has a flat glass roof, but viewed from outside, it is flat with sloped edges.

Mistake Continuity: When Han attempts to shoot Vader, Vader deflects the bolts into the walls. As he says, "We would be honored if you would join us," you can see burn marks by the door and on the wall to the left. Two shots later, the burn mark by the door has changed shape and size, and in the last shot of the scene, the other one has disappeared.

Mistake Revealing: When the medical droid tests Luke's mechanical hand at the end of the film, his thumb moves before the "muscle."

Mistake Continuity: When the officers on Hoth are discussing that the shield must be shut, Leia is standing in front of a spaceship. Immediately, she is several feet back leaning against the spaceship.

Mistake Continuity: When the stormtroopers push Leia into the cell in Cloud City, she is wearing a completely different outfit from when she was taken captive.

Mistake Continuity: When Luke crash lands on Dagobah, the view through his cockpit is crystal clear. But when the canopy pops open, the glass is dark tinted.

Mistake Revealing: When the Millenium Falcon fakes hitting the Star Destroyer, half of the sky is gray and the other half is black.

Mistake Continuity: Widescreen version: When Luke and Vader are fighting in the carbon-freezing chamber, as Vader says, "Only your hatred can destroy me.", the hose hanging from the ceiling behind Luke is pointed straight down, but in the previous shot, it was bent. This has nothing to do with camera angles - watch the smoke coming from it, it changes direction as well.

Mistake Continuity: Leia and Han become annoyed with C3PO's chattering, and Leia turns him off. However, if you watch him in the background, you can see his body move as he breathes.

Mistake Continuity: When Luke and Vader are fighting in the carbon-freezing-chamber, Vader says, " You have learned much, young one." Their light sabres are held in different angles between this shot and the previous and following shot.

Mistake Continuity: During the first scene in the lightsabre duel, Luke is holding his lightsabre in different angles between shots, depending on the camera angle.

Mistake Revealing: Before Lando warns the people of Cloud City that the Empire has taken control of the city, Leia shoots a stormtrooper. The burn mark can be seen on the troopers armour before the laser beam hits him.

Mistake Continuity: When Han punches Lando, Lando's cape stays on his back, but in the following shots, it's folded over his arm., before he puts it back on again.

Mistake Continuity: Just after the Falcon leaves the hangar on Hoth, we see Luke watching the Falcon as it rises up into the sky. Look closely at Luke's head - he is looking at a point ahead of where the Falcon actually is.

Mistake Other: In the scene when the Falcon speeds away from Hoth just as Darth Vader steps out, watch carefully as the Falcon exits the hangar. You will notice that a very small spot of the Falcon is visible through the roof of the hangar as the Falcon exits and flies upwards.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In the Hoth sequence, after the asteroid hits near Luke, you can clearly see the boom mike in Luke's goggles on his forehead.
