* ''Franchise/StarWars'': Combining ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'' and ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'', Luke Skywalker directly encounters Darth Vader three times: the first time in Cloud City, the second time on Endor (where Luke fails to redeem Vader and is instead taken to the Emperor), and the third in the Emperor's throne room. The two never get close enough in ''Film/ANewHope'' for it to count.

Luke is outskilled by Vader in the first encounter (he even loses a hand) and gets captured at the end of the second, but he finally defeats him (but also saves him from the Dark Side) in the third. The two never get close enough in ''Film/ANewHope'' for it to count.
