One of my favorite JEJ scenes was in Conan when he morphed into a GIANT SNAKE. I mean, I know he's black and all, but that was a HUGE SNAKE!

He's actually brilliant and was ruined by that scene.
I think the Burger King commercials ruined JEJ and Vader

2) What is ytmnd? I know it's a domain, but what does it stand for?

I was so immersed in the movie (grief and such) that I didn't find anything wrong with it (I didn't think about it). To me it felt ok. Not great, not terrible.

because it's a horrible piece of writing, a horrible piece of directing, and a horrible piece of acting.

clear enough for you?

Because that "noooooo" is the cheesiest, most cliched floorwipe cinema has ever seen.

Rewrite the scene like this:

All the equipment and droids in the room implode, as in the movie, and then Vader lets out a mechanized, animalistic scream, no articulation, just raw emotion whilst STRAINING against, but not breaking, is bonds.

I mean a good damn scream, halfway to a roar - got some deepness to it, the kind of sound you'd make whilst changing into a werewolf.

Much better.

That's the way it is in the script.
