my gripe with star wars

[skylark]

<< RagingBitch, how about I kill your mom, but spare your father's life? Can I be redeemed because I didn't kill your father? I didn't think so.

I have to agree with Jhu on this one. >>



what kind of ridiculous looney logic is that? you are taking Vader character out of context. Vader was the highest ranking officer in the Empire, only the Emperor was above him. He was the law, he wasn't your average shmuck off the street bounded by justice and criminal laws.

<< Ewoks were so cute. >>

i concur.

here's what pisses me off: The Starwars special edition sucks. We all shouldve known that Episode 1 was gonna bite the big one after seeing all of the lame CG implemented into the old classics. George lucas's creative mind flourishes on a low budged----now that he has total control over the production because he is using his own money, he seems to think more along the lines of &quot;sellability' than producing something that can live up to the starwars title.

Dont let this become a huge argument over whether or not Episode 1 was good or bad---just accept that the movies sucked, end of story. No argument there, right?

i think he was a little more then just the right hand man. isn't he next in line if the emperor dies?

 

[Electric Amish]

He reconciles with his son before he dies.

amish

 

[jhu]

so i guess we don't have to put all those ss guards on trial if they repent?

 

[Aihyah]

dunno, but i thought the cg retouched/remastered sound of the 1st 3 movies was a huge improvement. ever watch how ghetto the films were originally? was also kewl that i got to see them again in the theater ieww!..... course eps 1 still was a major dissapointment.

 

[syzygy]

the cg additions were aweful and they presaged lucas' lousy judgement
to come with the phantom menace. they were needless, added nothing to
the narrative, and looked unreal. the digitally remastered appearance
and sound were definite improvements

ace31216, it's Darth Vader, not Dark Vader.
Who said he wasn't punished? He died too quick. Maybe he's living it out in Star Wars purgatory.

BTW, I hope they release the original trilogy on DVD sometime in my lifetime...
