NO ONE SAID BEING A BAD GUY WOULD BE EASY.

Loyal, focused, and dedicated, Imperial and First Order stormtroopers, drivers, pilots serve their masters well. However, not every engagement goes that smoothly. Here’s a look at five spectacular bad-guy demises.

1. Wookiee rage, The Force Awakens

Han Solo is dead, killed by his estranged son, Kylo Ren on Starkiller Base. Solo’s longtime friend and co-pilot Chewbacca explodes with grief and anger, shooting Kylo and blasting First Order stormtroopers as they close in. And before anyone expects, Chewie thumbs a detonator, tearing the huge installation apart. As Rey and Finn recoil in shock, a trooper is hit by the fiery blast and flips over the barrier. It’s a long way down — something of a running theme for this list, as you’ll soon see.

2. Long way down, Return of the Jedi

The Battle of Endor is not going well. Han, Chewie, Leia, and the rebel commandoes have been captured. Things look distinctly bad for our heroes and increasingly sunny for the forces of the Empire. Enter the Ewoks, who rapidly turn the tide of the ground battle. Chewbacca and two furry companions swing (with the Wookiee emitting a familiar chant) on to the top hatch of a passing AT-ST and quickly toss one driver to the ground, while the second is battered into submission. The lesson: Wookiees and Ewoks make a pretty good team. Don’t mess with them.

Fun fact: The two AT-ST drivers were played by director Richard Marquand and producer Robert Watts. Watts is still the only Star Wars performer to have his character named directly after him.
