Why didn't we get the see the reshoot of the scene!


I was waiting and they didn't show it. Through all that work i should've loved to see it!

They weren't allowed to show it.

Possible bonus featurette on Blu-Ray release?

This is so stupid. The entire movie was building up to this, and then they left it out -- and they didn't even explain it in the movie.

What a letdown. This movie should have been a short "where are they now" thing, maybe 40 minutes long.

I get it and I don't. They could show Prowes in costume, in make up, entering the sound stange, but not the scene. What's the difference, Mark Hamill's likeness?

They provided Vader's likeness as they prepared for the scene. Guess I don't understand how copy rights work. Unless this guy is gonna pull a Lucas and have a re-release of that scene in another project to bring in more dough.

Then he shouldn't have made it the core premise of his stupid movie. It was terrible.

It's unfortunate, but I'm happy for Mr. Prowse that the makers of this documentary at least let him have the opportunity to play the scene he was originally robbed of and was shown to a limited audience. Also, I'm glad he was vindicated for his "alleged" spoilers to the press. Much praise to Mrs. Prowse for sticking by him all these years through his obsession of this character!

It's a shame, but it probably has to do with copyright. They couldn't show a recreation of an iconic scene in a film made for profit.
