I always thought (before I seen ROTS) Darth Vader was a character who, because he was evil and twisted, was mutilated intentionly to get into his suit. Sort of like an initiation into the Sith, abeit a very painful and pointless one.
When I saw ROTS, it made more sense to me then because I didn't think anyone would voluntary want to have to wear the suit and breathing apparatus. But I enjoyed the mystery of not knowing why he was like that.

...when i first saw it in ROTS (my very first Star Wars movie - the very first one i actually understood xD) , I finally understood what that weird looking thing on top of my friend's dad's cabinet is - darth vader's helmet.
also, I was thinking - Poor Anakin. Ack. Ouch. That thing must be heavy. He looks menacingly scary. Awesome.
First film i saw was Empire Strikes Back, i was about 5, and it didn't interest me one bit, watched half of it and then got bored. Little did i realise that it would be one of the favourite movie franchises...i wasn't even alive when the original trilogy had come out lol
I saw Darth Vader mainly in pictures then I finally saw Star Wars and I was awe struck be Vader then I had I mean still have a facsination with Things vader. I have pics, Movies and Figures and I still love to collect old rare pics of Vader. I draw him and soon will be starting on my second version of his outift.

Very cool. I remember when I first saw SW in the 90s upon seeing Vader I thought to myself "That is the guy I see on all those commercials!" It was from the 1997 re-release.
