Whats the deal with the cave scene in ESB?
The part where luke goes into the cave and sees darth then cuts his head off revealing lukes face in darths helmet.
i understand the symbolism, but how did it happen? was it visuals sent through the force, was he meditating and searching deep inside himself finding something interesting?
Also.......
when luke lands on degobah and says to R2 that he feels like hes seen it before, does this mean that he had visited there when he was a kid? or maybe padme gave birth to him there......
what do you guys think, and do you think that it will be answered in EP3?
read star wars infinities: a new hope. it is the only source that shows what would have happened if luke succeeded in the cave.

if I recall correctly what happens is that luke doesn't encounter vader, instead he encounters the images of Padme, Shmi, Anakin, Palpatine, and many others, learning the depths of his father's fall and the conspiracey of the Clone Wars and rise of the sith. his vision concludes with an apparition of Darth Maul stating that "at last we will have our revenge"

Yoda chose Dagobah for that very reason when he went into hiding. The dark side power was so strong there from the death of that Dark Jedi that it masked Yoda's presence. Who knows, it could very well be Count Dooku that Yoda chases after and kills on that planet.

Darth Vader: If you only knew the power of the Dark Side. Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father.
Luke: He told me enough. He told me you killed him.
Darth Vader: No. I am your father.
Luke: No. That's not true. That's impossible.
Darth Vader: Search your feelings you know it to be true.
Luke: Nooooo. Nooooo.
had luke been knowledgable of the light side, the cave would have revealed the truth to him. the truth of his origins and the sith. since there was still much darkness within him, the cave sent him a warning

read the infinities, what he pulls on Vader in ESB is absolutely aw inspiring in one of the most psychological star wars scenes ever.
