Necessary?

Is this really a necessary page? Especially since this is pretty much covered by the list of Star Wars changes page. Kuralyov 14:54, 16 Oct 2005 (UTC)

  • It's a different enough topic to warrant a separate page. The changes page discusses differences between releases, while this page also cover scenes which appeared in screenplays, storyboards, novels, etc. that never appeared in any release. I agree that this needs a lot of cleanup though. — Silly Dan 21:07, 16 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Crazy Yoda?

Can someone verify this. I have a feeling its Supershadow crap about Yoda farting...Redemption 15:02, 9 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Title

Current title sounds like this sort of cut scene ("a sequence in a video game over which one has no control") and not scenes cut from a movie. Change name to "Scenes cut from Star Wars"? --RMF 02:06, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

  • Good point. Go for the move. — Silly Dan 02:07, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Original Trilogy

Does LucasFilms have any plans to release the cut scenes from the original trilogy anytime in the future, or is there any other way to view them currently? - Danik Kreldin 02:10, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Cut scenes from each film

After compiling info on cut scenes from Ep IV it's going to need a page per movie.

Created a whole buch of stub artcles - anyone want to take them up?

Ep IV article is up already. Unsigned comment by Protocoldroid (talk • contribs)

Availability

Where can I get the OT deleted scenes?... Are there in any DVD? If anyone know, please tell me!! Klow 19:35, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

I don't think they're available legit, Klow Katana Geldar 11:22, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Padmé and Obi-Wan in ROTS

There is a scene in ROTS where Obi-Wan and Padmé have a conversation. The scene was filmed (and rendered) but not included on the DVD. Why isn't this there? It's where she's wearing the green dress I think. Katana Geldar 11:22, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Luke and Ben Spend the Night at Bestine?

This is in the ANH section of this page, but no link, reference or anything. I've never, ever heard of it. Mistake? Unsigned comment by DarthNub (talk • contribs)

  • I assume this question was asked around 2008. The weird thing is that this page is the first thing brought up when searching for the scene, and not much else. The only thing that halfway corroborates its existence is the fact that in the Disney canon book Star Wars: Complete Locations, it's apparently mentioned that Luke and Ben spent a night in a city called Bestine. Also, in the transcripts of the fourth draft and revised fourth draft of Star Wars I've found online, there are some missing scenes between when Luke agrees to go to Alderaan and when they arrive at Mos Eisley, where in the final film it just goes straight from the one scene to the other. And in the revised rough draft, Luke lies to a stormtrooper claiming to be from Bestine, the context indicating it's a town on Tatooine even though the same draft also had Biggs's mention of Bestine, which implied Bestine was a planet. This supposed deleted scene is pretty tantalizing. Terminimal (talk) 06:14, January 9, 2019 (UTC)

Boba Fett Surviving

It's not true that Lucas filmed a scene of Boba Fett surviving the pit. Lucas clearly says this in the commentary on the BluRay of RoTJ.

"I had contemplated putting in an extra shot where he climbs out of the hole, but figured it doesn't quite fit, in the end." Unsigned comment by 82.107.240.161 (talk • contribs)

Photo, but no description

There's a photo from a cut scene of Han Solo in the Cantina with a woman, but what this scene is is not discussed in the article. 68.146.52.234 21:42, April 16, 2015 (UTC)

Jedi Temple Scenes

I've noticed that in one video from a Star Wars youtube channel there are deleted scenes. Can anyone tell me where they're from? Here's the link at the time I copied:

Canon vs Legends

Why are some of the characters' names linked as Legends? Because all of this happened before George Lucas sold Star Wars to Disney? Is it okay if I relink them all as Canon? --Retro Reed (talk) 22:23, December 21, 2018 (UTC)

  • Yes, it is a Canon page. But note that some characters exist only in Legends. OOM 224 (talk) 12:18, January 9, 2019 (UTC)

Page renaming

I propose that this page be renamed "Content cut from Star Wars" or "Unused Star Wars content" as this list covers more than just cut scenes, such as alternate takes and dialogues. SavagePanda845 (Talk) 20:59, 1 March 2021 (UTC)

The Rise of Skywalker Deleted Scenes

Can anyone add a new section dedicated to documenting the deleted scenes found in both novelisations for The Rise of Skywalker please? Motleycat74 (talk) 16:05, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

  • There aren't any deleted scenes in The Rise of Skywalker. This is only for everything seen on screen, not anything exclusive to novels. --Rocket Retro Reed (talk) 18:05, 12 December 2021 (UTC)

Splitting up the article

Given the length of this article, would it make sense to split up into a page for each film? This main article could be kept, listing links to the individual pages. --JMM (talk) 13:47, 13 December 2022 (UTC)

  • I don't think there is any need for that, it's quite manageable as it is, and I think it's pretty neat for users to not have to navigate between several pages if they want to research cut scenes. NanoLuukeCloning Facility 06:15, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
    • Yes, and I added scroll boxes to some of the longer sections to cut down on the length of the page. --JMM (talk) 12:57, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Rename to Content Cut from Star Wars

A lot of what's mentioned in the article aren't necessarily full scenes that were cut, but rather small snippets. I feel it would be more inclusive to replace "scenes" with "content" in the article name. SavagePanda845 (Talk) 20:40, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

I just realized I already made a post here saying the same thing. My point still stands. SavagePanda845 (Talk) 20:41, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
  • I think you might have a case, but I would advise trying to raise the issue over in a Senate Hall post to reach more editors and reach a soft concenssus (meaning without the need of a CT vote). NanoLuukeCloning Facility 13:56, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Mustafar duel

There's some footage from the deleted Duel on Mustafar that's not on this page and I think they should be added. Also, the deleted footage of the duel should be typed in order. Unsigned comment by Mariojack1 (talk • contribs)

Scene where Stormtroopers swing over gap and are shot?

Hi, I remember a deleted scene mentioned in the Episode IV section involving Luke, Han, Leia and Chewie being trapped behind a blast door in a room with a circular pit. R2 is trying to open the door from the other side while Stormtroopers are swinging over the pit and are blasted. I remember it mentioning that it was supposedly on the Behind the Magic CD ROM, but that was never confirmed. Was this taken down because it was disproven? This supposed scene has puzzled me for a while. Unsigned comment by CZFan1 (talk • contribs)
