Man, if I was Vader I think I'd just pull a Grievous and have my brain and favorite guts stuffed into a jar, throw away the rest, and get a sick robot body.

Full-on robo body means no more connection to the Force, though.

Thats why you keep the guts and stuff, and I mean hes stronger now than he was when he had his whole body anyway so clearly he has some wiggle room. Chop a few more pieces off, he'd probably still be stronger than 99% of the galaxy

 Seriously. Two people in one show being able to survive a lightsaber to the gut without much of an explanation is ridiculous.

The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some would consider to be unnatural. Like first aid training, interstellar teleportation... Honestly, apart from the insane megalomania, the dark side clearly seems to be more useful and powerful. Yoda was full of poo poo, gimme dat red lightsaber, yo.

That DICK! posted:TLJ has the most going for it if you're looking at it from a critical perspective, which you shouldn't, because it was a bridging film for an objectively terrible trilogy series that took every opportunity to burn its own bridge. so when you walked into rise of skywalker you should have known they weren't gonna somehow deliver a good third act sequel that would have redeemed the trilogy as a whole. there was nothing to get mad about, just see a couple lightsabers, eat your popcorn, and enjoy the utter loving disaster-spectacle before you. stuff like palpatine coming back in fortnite, christ powers' rey, snoke in the jar etc. etc made me hoot and holler and laugh. Exactly this. My first gut reaction to TLJ was to describe it as a "disjointed mess." The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I got. It remains the only movie I have ever given 1/10 stars on IMDB. By the time I saw TLJ, I just wanted it all to be over. Somehow the Emperor came back? Sure. Whatever, gently caress it, that's fine. Oh, cool, giant waves like Nazarre, Portugal, that's cool. I like surfing. Is this Endor? Who the gently caress cares. Credits and music. Sigh of relief.

Kinda annoyed how rubbish Vader’s lava fortress looks in this compared to in Rogue One. There it felt expansive, and he had attendants. But here it’s one very small room with a single chair that manages to make Vader look small and uncomfortable. I think that it’s the armrests being too high that does it. He’s like a small child in an armchair, and he’s having to lean forward a bit too and he just lacks menace. Add some shaky handcam cinematography on top and it’s like a videogame cutscene from the FMV era. Also, him have a little desktop equivalent of the hologram space phone is okay in some circumstances, but even in ESB it was shown that he has a giant one he kneels in front of when talking to the emperor. It’s just not correct for him to chat with Reva and Palpatine on the same device. In ESB it’s the small one for the fleet commanders only. I know this sounds like the pettiest of nitpicks on some level, but they did just sit Vader down on a chair that doesn’t fit him and got him to have a conversation with nothing and managed to have it look like poo poo and go against the existing established way of doing things because they were too cheap to build a second room for the Mustafar set and… I dunno, it bothers me.

Aunt Beru pulls out a fuckin assault rifle, then Sheev Palpatine personally shows up to say "everything that happened here was really loving stupid, and we will never speak of it again". The hard pivot to comedy was a bold choice, but probably the best redemption of the series. Spookydonut posted:That starship chase was almost as loving stupid as tlj That's obviously deliberate.

teagone posted:The amount of rocks that Obi-Wan was chucking at Vader was pretty comical. It did make me laugh. Just absurd. Straight up poo poo out of Elden Ring, the Meteorite of Astel, along with Obi-Wan rolling around to dodge.   Necrothatcher posted:"I'll check the Dune Sea!" I also "loved" how quick he got there. We've been shown that hyperspace can take some time but this planet was nearby and Obi-Wan lands an hour or so after Luke took off. I thought for sure we'd see Tuskens since Owen drops the line that there are warnings of them raiding again.gently caress. What a dumb finale to all this. OH we learned why Owen limps, NEAT (echos of "just Han..." "Han.... Soloooo" *groan*). And they just yoink one of the biggest scenes from Rebels when Ahsoka slashes Vader's helmet. That had more impact then whatever garbage this was. I was pretty scared for Luke there - wow, such tension!!!! Imagine the balls on them to have actually killed him and then it's Filoni and Hidalgo sitting in a chair, in a white room telling you to gently caress yourself this is thew NU-Star Wars ala that Matrix game with the Wachowski siblings.  About the only saving grace was seeing Qui-Gon at the end. This should have just stayed on Tatooine with Obi-Wan dealing with poo poo there and an episode or two learning something from Qui-Gon. Meh.

Speaking of early 1990s computer games, the first shot of the Emperor's hologram looked terrible. It looks like only his mouth and left hand are moving, the rest is standing pixel-perfect still.

This entire scene is so good. The reveal of the Mustafar fortress, the glimpse of Vader in the bacta tank to show his life is constant agony, the door opening to cast a massive Vader shadow standing next to a quaking tiny Crennic who is usually fearless. It's 3.5 minutes and does more to explain the internal Imperial power struggles and then Vader's place it than 6 episodes of this latest show. Rogue One remains the best thing to ever come out of this franchise. It is the best Star War.
