Star Wars: The WORST Scene In Every Skywalker Saga Film

8. The Empire Strikes Back: The Wampa Attack

Picking the worst scene from The Empire Strikes Back is like trying to pick which bite of an incredible meal was just a little bit less tasty than the others. There is no truly bad moment in this entire film but, for the purposes of this list, there has to be a loser and this scene from the opening Hoth sequence is the unfortunate pick.

While it’s certainly a fun series of events, Luke Skywalker getting kidnapped by a giant snow bear and lopping its arm off only really serves as a distraction from the main issue of the Empire’s impending attack on the rebel base. It also gives him a vision of Obi-Wan that tells him to go to Dagobah, but this could probably have been communicated more succinctly as well.

As said before, this is far from being even an average scene, but it is definitely the section of the movie that could be cut out without losing very much at all. Still, where would we be without all of those Wampa plushies?
