I was watching a bit of Empire the other night on Sky Movies and it was the bit where Luke was blocking Vaders Sabre on that gantry prior to getting his hand lopped off
At one point Vaders sabre hit the metal railing and it made a CLANG!

now i love that clang as much as i love the famous scene that follows
then i watched the bit where the Falcon goes into Hyperspace and Piett stares in pissed off disbelief and realised how much i love that look on his face too
so ive opened a thread to celebrate the lesser moments in the OT
a facial expression,a minor comment - UTINI! or a minor background character like this guy

61). In ESB - on the executor, when Vader is talking to the three holograms of imperials...one of them cuts out as they get nailed by an asteroid...sweet. (Can't believe how many times I saw that scene without noticing that).

Tangible God
34) Lando's seemingly lack of importance in his undercover role. I mean, what did he do that was so important as to be infiltrated into Jabba's palace? I know there's a back story in the books, but any simple movie watcher won't get it.

31) The music played in ROTJ just before Luke cuts Vaders hand off.

Rampant ox
10. "You may fire when ready". In fact, Grand Moff Tarkin in general.

jollyjim311
9. When we see Luke for the first time in ROTJ, choking the two gammorean guards. I know it's from ROTJ, but it was just plain cool. Luke was now a badass Jedi Knight (except, you know, technically).

vintageSW77
8) The Gonk Droid


GONK!

General G
7) The fact that the ladder thatn Luke uses to get into his X-Wing to go to Dagobah disappears, don't know if it has been fixed by the new version or not

queeq
6) Sound of spy on Tatooine in ANH

vintageSW77
1) The 20th century fox fanfare then POW!

Hairs on the back of your neck and in the cinema a disguised tear
