On the DVD release they've added a thump when he hits it.*Luke's line in Star Wars "I can't see a thing in this helmet" was not scripted. Mark Hamill said this to Harrison Ford when he thought the cameras had stopped rolling, but the filmmakers decided to leave the line in.*Episode III - Revenge of the Sith: In the scene where Anakin arrives on Mustafar and tells R2-D2 to stay with the ship, he pulls the hood of his robe over his head with two organic hands. His right hand should be mechanical.*When Finn, Poe, Rey and C-3PO visit the festival in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the 42 year interval is a reference to the 42 years between A New Hope and The Rise of Skywalker.*The Force Awakens: While Poe leads the aerial assault on the oscillator, in the closeups of Poe and other X-wing fighter pilots, note the cockpit windows at the pilots' left and right have identical marks and scratches in their individual X-wings.
