13 Severed Hands

I (Qui) just learned this random fact. In all 6 Star Wars movies, 13 hands/arms were chopped or pulled off!!!!

TPM:
No hands were chopped off. I'm sorry.
AotC:
Obi-Wan cuts off a random persons hand
Anakin gets his hand cut off by Dooku.
RotS:
Dooku gets BOTH of his hands cut off!
General Grievous gets two of his hands cut off!
Mace gets his arm cut off by Anakin
Obi-Wan cuts off Anakins hand! (Thats twice for Anakin now)
ANH:
Threepio gets his arm pulled off!
Obi cuts off someone elses arm in a bar.
ESB:
The snow beast gets his arm chopped off by Luke.
And of course, Luke gets his hand cut off by his Father. (Duh)
RotJ:
And finally, Luke gets his revenge by chopping off Darth Vaders hand only to find that both of them have a robotic hand. Like father like son!

And if you combine the books and the comics and the movies, Vader/Anakin gets his hand chopped off NO LESS THAN 5 TIMES!!!

Its making me realize how....well...violent Star Wars is. At least its not gory, like at least they don't show it all. (THANK GOD because i CANNOT AND REPEAT CANNOT handle goryness.)

Have a nice day! And tomorrow, Padme post!! :DDDD

    That's slightly disturbing, but I didn't realize how gory it is either... You're right, at least they don't show it, I don't think I could handle it.

    I actually think I could handle it. Eh, actually, no. I take that back. I don't think I could either. LOL

    Cutting off hands is a Jedi tradition, apparently.

    I did notice that. I should write a real post about that and the possible reasons why! It would probably turn into a conspiracy theory.

    Amaranthine: Cutting of hands actually is the preferred method of stopping your enemies- the other immediate option is their heads, an action strongly discouraged by the Jedi Council. :) Somewhere on Wookiepdeia there's an article about the technique, in various forms of lightsaber combat... just in case you want to know more.
