Here we’ve gathered a few iconic movie characters and the increasingly bizarre ways in which they were brought back to life. Some of them faked their deaths, others have amnesia. Some were resurrected through science, others through magic.

When Spock died from radiation poisoning at the end of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, it looked like the end of the road for Starfleet’s favorite Vulcan. But, fortunately, circumstances were just right for Spock to be resurrected in the sequel, appropriately titled Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. Just before he died, Spock transferred his soul into the body of Dr. McCoy, and after his death, his body landed on a planet conveniently formed by the mysterious Genesis device. The planet uses Spock’s DNA to bring his mindless body back to life and rapidly age it, and the Enterprise’s crew reunites it with Spock’s soul on his home planet Vulcan. The first thing he remembers is how he called Captain Kirk “Jim.”

George Lucas’ Star Wars trilogy — especially the first film — is one of the most notorious examples of a director going a little too hard re-editing his own vision. Between painting over lots of the charmingly retro effects with computer generated imagery to replacing whole characters with CGI, Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope looks very little like it did when it was first released in theaters in 1977. One change even sparked a decades-long fight in the fan community: in the original theatrical cut, Han Solo shoots bounty hunter Greedo under the table during their confrontation in the Mos Eisley cantina, but in the 1997 special edition Lucas re-edited the scene to show Greedo shooting at Han first, and missing. Fans preferred the original scene, which showed Han’s ruthlessness and street smarts — traits that would be softened over time as he took up the cause of the Rebellion.
