I was watching the battle on DVD in slow motion, and I noticed something. What looks like Luke hitting Vader's right shoulder actually is something different. Luke actually misses the shoulder, and hits Vader's neck. In one frame, the lightsaber actually looks like it's going through his neck. I guess it all happens so fast that when you see the pyro going off on Vader's shoulder, you assume that Luke hit the shoulder.

Nice observation.

The emotional intensity of the take was too good to not edit in post?

Isn't that the scene where they were filming with small shafts on the sabers?

Probably to fix it in post, it would have made it so the saber was bent..

I'd have to watch it again.

Looks like he's hitting him on the shoulder to me.
