10 Most Cringeworthy Onscreen Kisses In The History Of Movies
1. Mark Hamill And Carrie Fischer - The Empire Strikes Back
Why, George? Why did you make this happen? Was it something we said? Something we did? Or are you just one of those sadists who likes to watch the world you created burn to the ground all around you?
To make scruffy, "nerf herder" Han Solo jealous, Leia unexpectedly plants a big fat one on Luke. When their far too lengthy kiss is over, Luke puts his hands behind his head and soaks in the hot action he just got from his own bloodline. Seriously, the guy looks like he's receiving oral pleasures from the head cheerleader after scoring the game-winning touchdown for his high school football team.
It's awkward even without the yet-to-be-discovered family secret.
Lucas has hinted that the moments of incest between Luke and Leia were accidental, and that he hadn't yet considered making them siblings when he was writing Empire Strikes Back. Hopefully that's true.
But even so, it's a little strange that George Lucas made about a hundred changes to the original trilogy (that nobody wanted) when he re-released the Special Edition set, but he left in that unfortunate make-out session between these siblings.
