Star Wars: Ranking Every Space Battle Worst To Best
9. Han And Luke Tie Fighter Battle - Episode IV
"Great kid, now don't get cocky", a brilliant line in what is still on the finest battles in the whole saga, despite it coming all the way back in Episode IV.
Han and Luke are on top form as they battle the Empire's tie-fighters in deep space. It's a great scene and comes just after we've seen Obi-Wan meet his end at the hands of Darth Vader.
Little does Luke know at the time, but Obi-Wan has gone for the sole reason to allow young Skywalker to fulfil his destiny in the end.
The battle itself is a simple enough one. Millennium Falcon against Tie Fighter, with nothing but good old fashioned space blasters and deflector shields to work with.
