The Soundtrack upload is currently at 26%, there's another 480 some tracks left to upload.

No.

The Visual Dictionaries, Guidebooks, Reference Books, etc do not get officially scanned 99% of the time.

We'll have to wait for them to be scanned by someone who's willing to basically destroy their copy, since you have to remove the pages from the binding to scan them

There used to be several dedicated scanners for stuff, but they haven't been heard from in ages.

>you will never lick her plates clean

I don't understand why people are upset that Rey used the mind trick. It was basically her Obi-Wan moment, like when Luke learned to connect with the Force while blinded. Blame Adam Driver. He gave her the experience of connecting with another using the Force where she figured out how to turn the connection against him. Then with nothing else to lose she, eventually, managed to create a connection of her own to a Stormtrooper. His will was weak enough that she popped some commands into his head.

>>78343187
It would explain a lot if she were both an autist and the inbred daughter of Luke and Leia.

>>78342966

At this point is probably infamous. It wouldn't surprise me if he was first order enemy #1.

A traitor storm trooper who not only gave the Skywalker map to the rebels, but injured kyle Ren, tossed phasma in rhe trash and showed them how to blow up the starkiller. Oh, they're coming for him.

>>78343204
I think it would have worked better if she heard Kanata's voice in her head first or there was some kind of indication of her growing connection with the Force other than "do it more calmer". It's also, as far as I'm aware, a pretty high level Jedi technique right? I mean Ezra couldn't do it.

That being said, it's not like she didn't try three times and didn't immediately get it

Welp, I tried giving Clone Wars another shot (later season episodes), but it's just not doing anything for me.
They have no feeling for pacing, the dialogue is stilted and wooden...there's just no real feeling behind it. Everything just runs down like a...well, script. Doesn't feel natural.
Plus the designs are just butt-ugly. Not even season 3's upgraded graphics can help with that.
Rewatched Rebels' "Stealth Strike" afterwards. Still so much better.

>>78343051
>>78343104
I just feel horribly alienated now that everybody is parading Episode 7 as being better than the entire prequel trilogy.

>>78343187

A bored teenager putting on a helmet and imagining leaving her shithole planet must obviously be an autist.

Her independent lifestyle and fast friendship with BB8, Finn, and her ingenuity piloting the Millennium Falcon: all classic signs of autism.

Crying a lot because she misses er family and is desperate for them to return? Autism. Having psychic visions when touching a lightsaber? Autism. Pretending to eat what is obviously romanesco broccoli on a fuji apple? Autism.

>>78343149
Their helmets are able to ID nametags of friendly troopers, so I wouldn't be surprised if they could scan Finn and instantly know who he is. It's definitely possible.

How exactly was it better than the entire prequel trilogy combined?

I'm glad we're on the same page here

>>78343204

I think a lot of people thought it was unreasonable that she would even know what a mind trick is, even though it seems that a lot of people not connected with the Jedi know what it is. It's almost THE thing people know about Jedi, like how almost everyone has the idea that vampires turn into bats, so it's not unreasonable to believe she would try it once she learned she was strong with the Force. Also brainwashed storm troopers is probably the easiest practice target you could have for force manipulation.

> It's also, as far as I'm aware, a pretty high level Jedi technique right?

It's kind of hard to define what is a "high level" force technique because your ability in the force completely is dependent on how much faith you give back to it.

Both Luke and Ezra classically have a lot of doubt both with themselves and with the force, which is why they are shown to struggle so much.

Rey appears to have an almost child like wonder with the idea of the Force. She knew and recognized all of the stories and characters from the original trilogy, and living alone on a outer rim planet it's probably stories like that that kept her going. Having one of her heroes like Han Solo tell her that the Force is as real as it gets it probably all she needs to fully believe in the power of the Force. You'll notice in the movie that she never struggled with what the Force could or could not do, but with what she could do. So once she overcame her own fears and trusted in the Force, she's shown to be very powerful indeed.

>>78343246
Ezra excels at connecting with others using the Force. It's his special bridging power he acquired through being a Bridger.

Seriously. Connecting with Kanan before he even saw him, controlling the momma fyrnock, using a Loth-Cat as a droid assassin. He hasn't been taught the mind trick but his ability to connect is phenomenal. His only problem with using it initially was his fear of connecting to others, which was getting in his way. According to the Recon this ability to connect will become a larger part of his character later in the season.

Why does he wear the mask?

>>78343322
You want people to go beat for beat with each aspect of the prequels?

If I could just sum it up, I thought the acting was great on all characters, the fighting was fantastic, the humor was on point, the characters in general were all likable and I actually am interested in the villain. At no point was I feeling bored by the film. These are all things I wouldn't say about the prequels.

It's nowhere near as good as ANH or TESB but it stands up to the OT and at the least is tied with ROTJ

>>78343321
There's going to be a hell of a lot of Kylo Ren cosplayers

>>78343388
>Why does he wear the mask?
Cause he wants to be cool

>>78343354
Yeah it is. Is MCU-tier garbage that panders to the lowest common denominator.

The costumes are shit, the action is dull and the practical effects are trash. The plot isn't even worth talking about because it's a remake of ANH.

Anyone else feel like they found the perfect style of lightsaber fights in TFA?

Ignoring any arguments about the plausibility of Rey defeating Kylo, I feel like they found the perfect halfway point between the slow and deliberate samurai style fights of the Originals and the fast acrobatic martial arts style of the Prequels.

>>78343354
Are you saying ROTJ is worse than the prequels?

>>78343300
Some Clone Trooper episodes and a bit of Asokah, Season 3.

>>78343260
It's too early to say. TFA met the lowest expectations while ROTS was a concluding chapter after two disappointing at best films. Let's see the whole sequel trilogy first.

>>78343388

>>78343420
I adored the fighting in TFA. I really want to see what they do with two people that are actually trained at fighting

>>78343430
I hate how popular that opinion has become. People dwell on the 22 minutes of ewok screen time but forget the remaining 100 something minutes is top fucking tier.

Anybody questioning why people like VII more than the prequels must first think about why III is generally widely considered to be the best one despite it having some of the same problems of the first two

>>78343344
She doesn't have to know what the mind trick is any more than Anakin understood where his resources were coming from or Ezra his ability to jump and sometimes receive flashes of precognition. Rey had someone forcibly and Forcibly connect to her mind and learned how to push back and use that channel. Since she knew that forming these connections was possible she tried and eventually managed to initiate one on her own. Instead of interrogating she pushed commands into his thoughts.

It's not much different than Luke purposefully turning off his targeting computer to recreate the moment against the remote where the Force alone guided his actions. Rey managed to recreate something she was shown was possible and used it to command the weak willed. She had no idea how difficult it was supposed to be, so she had no pre-doubts about whether she could do it or not. She was also desperate and had nothing to lose which surely helped.

You'll note that this didn't unlock the mind trick ability for her otherwise she would have used it on those Stormtroopers rushing down the corridor. She can't, yet, wave her hand and control people.

>>78343389
Okay, I guess my main issue is that people are now trying to pretend the prequels didn't exist, and if somebody mentions them they just tell them how shit it was.

It's episode 7, made thirty years after the originals, there was always gonna be references.

>The costumes are shit, the action is dull and the practical effects are trash. The plot isn't even worth talking about because it's a remake of ANH.

The costumes are distinct and vibrant, the action is solid, the lightsaber fights in particular were excellent, the last third did pull too heavily from ANH, but all the groundwork laid before with the new characters is promising.

>>78343461
>People dwell on the 22 minutes of ewok screen time

That being said, I don't think I've seen anybody say ROTJ is worse than the prequels, just the least good OT movie which is sort of understandable

Which are generally ruined with the many things people dislike about them.

Also, what good characters? The only likable character in the PT is Obi-Wan. Maybe Sheev. Unless you're talking about expanded material which is also where people get this idea that Dooku is actually a good character.

I adored how none of the major villains died in this film. The Prequels suffered heavily from having to rotate their villains every time. People complain that Phasma didn't do anything but at she's got two more movies to make up for that which is more than can be said for characters like Maul.

>The final fight is arguably the best in the franchise.

The fight in RotS could have been the best if it wasn't completely spoiled by the over abundance of CG bullshit constantly flooding the screen. Any emotion and tension that the fight started or ended with was completely absent when they were fighting each other on service droids or making parting blows at each other while swinging from cables. The only thing that kept that gave that scene any sort of depth or drama was John Williams' music and Ewan McGregor's acting.

Season 3 is just when the series gets it's huge boost in quality. George pumps more money into it, and the plots get darker. It's also a popular idea that the clone trooper episodes are the best, especially the ones in Seasons Four and Six.

I'd encourage you to follow this guide if your so inclined. I'll also throw out a few of my favorites.

S3E18-20: The Jedi and Clones infiltrate a prison to recover secret information held by captured Republic soldiers. Introduces Tarkin into TCW.

S4E7-10: Darkness of Umbara. Space Vietnam. Clone centric episode and one of the darkest plots in the series.

S5 E1, 14-16: Darth Maul has returned, and takes over Mandalore and BTFO's Kenobi. Bretty gud.

S5 E18-20: Ahsoka is framed for bombing the Jedi temple, and this follows her emotional quest to uncover the truth.

S6 E1-4: Order 66 Arc. Fives uncovers a conspiracy surrounding the clones, the Jedi, and the Chancellor. Very great arc.

Are you sure you're not confusing "TCW fixed a lot of the problems of the prequels" with "We like the prequels"

What's some good SW material that contains or is centered around General Grievous?

>>78343616

when did this great divide happen in movies, where some people dont want long fight scenes and others do.

Personally I think if were going to build up a protagonist and antagonist, give them a powerful set of combat abilities that are visually impressive during the course of one or more movies, and then have them clash at the end...I would like it to be a lengthy visually engaging battle....and when I see folks complaining about it i want their opinions away from my future movies...go watch other genres

>>78343693
This circlejerk of a general changes it's mind almost every day, so you should forgive him for being confused.

So are we doing that thing where people think they know what they're talking about when they whine about the Prequels using too much CG, then everyone whips out the actual footage and behind-the-scenes stuff showing that, they didn't?
Again?

>>78343651
>>78343653
If they were actually fighting the whole time, you know like they were at the beginning and doing actual cool shit like when they did the double Force Push or when Anakin kicks Obi's face in, it would have been worthwhile.

However, once the lava starts going crazy, it's completely fucked because it stops being a fight and more of a CG spectacle.

Also FROM MY POINT OF VIEW THE JEDI ARE EVIL is just the worst.

>>78343696
There's a comic simply called General Grievous in which he murders Jedi for four issues

Well if no one else is going to post it, have a list anon

Honestly, I do reccomend just working your way through it, especially if you are watching Rebels. Plus, for all its flaws this series is one of the best things to claw its way out of the Prequels.

Also, this list does not contain the half season that got made after the cancelation or the books/comics/proto-episodes that got made out of finished scripts that we're going to be used in later seasons. I recommend checking out the finished episodes from season 6 if you watch nothing else. The other Legacy stuff is up to you depending on what you like/can stand from the series.

You can hear stories of people realizing they fucking hated it halfway through the opening night.

Just because a bunch of fanboys gave it 10/10 on IMDB the night it came out doesn't mean everybody loved it.

Please stop this meme. Please, I am at the end of my rope. Just because they move faster and make more use of their powers because of the superior SFX and younger actors does not make a Jedi into a fucking anime character.

People in the OT just moved fucking slowly and awkwardly because Vader's actor was in a big ass heavy suit and Obi Wan was like 60. There was nothing majestic in their movements or their "choreography" it was two slow people hitting each other with a stick. It was Kirk vs the Gorn Captain with slightly more money.

>>78343588
Does seem like someone is pushing the whole prequel trolling to start shit.

Personally I found it interesting how the Prequels and this new Sequel (only one movie in yet so can't obviously be judged as a whole) were in some ways opposites of the spectrum.

The Prequels excelled at world building, creating an atmospheric setting. Even if you hated the stories it's hard to argue the effort that went into creating the look and feel.

TFA was plot point driven and formed an apparently more compelling story than trade dispute blockades turned invasions of an otherwise peaceful world. At the same time it does a really shitty job of showing the scope and scale of the galaxy wide conflict thirty years later. We aren't really shown the disposition of the players in the galaxy or what is actually at stake. It treats it's plot as so generic that it will be accepted without any backstory. Empire is now First Order, There's a Resistance who apparently only use X-Wings and for some reason only have a single base that for some reason is staffed with Leia and Ackbar. There's also a Republic which may or may not be dead right now, who the fuck knows. The destruction of Alderaan had more build up and emotional weight than, what was it, the Hosnian System? But at least we saw brief snippets of people freaking out before they died. I guess TFA suffers a bit for rehashing the major plot points of it's story from the OT. They sum up the threat by saying, "Here's the old Death Star, and now hear is the super more gigantic new doom planet!" I may have sneezed and missed it but I can't remember them ever saying that the Starkiller Base planet is mobile, which it would have to be otherwise it would have burned up the last of it's ammunition after eating an entire sun.

Basically the Prequels suffered from story while TFA was more compelling, however TFA suffers more when you actually start picking it apart and analyzing it's components. There's actually a lot less.

>>78343878

>it was two slow people hitting each other with a stick. It was Kirk vs the Gorn Captain with slightly more money.
And what was wrong with that? It felt more grounded and every hit thus had weight to it.

>>78343878

Besides, they got a master swordsman to do the stunts for Vader in V and VI.

>>78343790
>The style of Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan vs. Maul was more in line with how the fight should have gone down and that was three guys

The Darth Maul fight probably was the best fight scene in the prequels. I only don't remember it as fondly because it's constantly interrupted by Anakin accidentally winning the day.

>Qui Gon and Obi Wan barely able to keep up with a Sith Lord
>Limited space to maneuver and take advantage of their superior numbers
>Obi Wan gets separated and we have to watch with him as Qui Gon faces Darth Maul alone now

>Qui Gon cut down

No stupid gimmicks like lava surfing or cable swinging, just martial arts and good pacing.

There's no passion in an overly choreographed fight, dummy.

The best fights in cinema are the ones that feel brutal and emotional. Obviously they're not "realistic" since that'd be "guy goes down in one punch" or "guy gets his face slammed into a knee over and over again" but they at least try to pretend they're not doing a wacky dance with swords.

Kylo's fight with Rey was something I liked because with some exceptions he actually looked like he was trying to KILL Rey without any bullshit flipping.

The prequels suffered from bad acting, characters who nobody could really identify with, humor that was misplaced and a very very boring backdrop of a story. You see people joke about "finally a scrolling text/plotline not about trad routes" but that sort of thing is really boring. At least compared to the OT which really was space adventures

I'll give you worldbuilding but a lot of that worldbuilding comes with the things that the PT gave life to, not the movies in as of themselves

So i just saw TFA and it was pretty good
But like a lot of people i was super disapointed by Phasma's role in the movie
Much like boba fett she looked cool but didn't really do anything, got humiliated and taken out too easily
Now the same could be said of boba fett but he sort of recovered
It took alot of adventures that didn't always make sense for people to forget he was hit by a blind man and ate by a sand vagina
And people still bring that up
But that was all wacky EU stuff and phasma is confirmed to be appearing in the next movie and they probably realized that they wasted her in the tfa and give her a more prominent role, if they're not dummies that is
So she'll have to do some "baddass" or "cool" thing in the next one and while there are a lot of things she could do i propose one simple thing that would utterly wipe that humiliation away and let her have some sort of revenge not involving killing off a main character:
Have her sexually assault Rey

Pretty much. The prequels had a lot of interesting new worlds and lore that had not been seen in the saga before, but TFA had organic and likable characters.

I think an ideal lightsaber fight has emotion, purpose, and character portrayed though the choreography.

The prequel fights had good purpose and character (we must defeat this Sith and we are well trained in using a lightsaber) but no emotion. Obi-wan doesn't fight like he's mad or determined or anything after Qui-gon bites it, he just kinda goes back to fighting.

The original trilogy had all three in every fight except maybe the first one with Darth and Ben. I really need to see the new movie again to get a better feeling, but I think it did all three pretty well.

I'm not against flashy choreography as long as it makes sense

>>78344143

I thought ROTS was the worst of the prequels, actually. Anakin force-chokes his wife (which is what he was trying to prevent), but then she dies an hour later from having her neck mildly squeezed? Or did she somehow will herself to death in an hour, even though she's got kids? Not to mention Grievous and Dooku having such unimpressive fight scenes. AOTC had that shitty love story, and TPM had Jar-Jar, but they also at least had Darth Maul and Jango Fett. ROTS was just a murky mess.

Doesn't change the fact that the prequel duels have absolutely no emotional weight behind them. Just compare something like Dooku vs. Yoda/Anakin/Obi-Wan to the duel from Empire of Jedi. It's nonsense. Also, the arena scene on Genosis with the 6 gorillion Jedi is terrible.

Man, was there one good thing about Attack of the Clones? Say what you will about TPM but at least it had Duel of the Fates.

>>78344020
The movies set the stage of the Clone Wars across a galaxy with many different and exotic alien locales filled with distinctive armies with distinctive equipment.

Anyone else find the ships in TFA were pretty bland outside the carbon copies from the OT? The Resistance has a flying brick with Leia in it, while the First Order uses flatbread skiffs.

TFA also had plenty of "quirky" humor moments that are no doubt hit and miss depending on the individual.

Right, things we do not see in the movies. But we do read a lot about in expanded materials

What TFA did right: Characters, dialogue, tone, use of CGI and practical effects, simple plot and not too much exposition, fast pacing (a bit too fast though) and casting + acting
Also, no ewoks, gungans or other stupid shit to pander to children.

Having internal conflict is now "emo"? But yeah, Rey was fairly boring .Finn and Poe were great though.

>>78344307
I really want to say it's the best ever, but I think Luke vs. Vader Round 2 is the perfect combination of choreography, scenery and purpose. Three things I think make up a good lightsaber fight.

So I'll just say it's really good. The Finn part of the fight was good too

The Prequels had force-sensitives at the peak of their power. They used the Force like pre-cog, allowing for instantaneous strikes.

They're fully trained in the Force, so flips and speed make sense.

If anything, the weighted feel of the OT makes no damn sense, mainly because lightsabers are nearly weightless (besides the hilt). There's no need for the long and swings Luke and Vader employ, as lightsabers don't build momentum.

They should act more like fencing if anything. Quick thrusts and strikes, with equally fluid movements guided by the Force.

Better than the prequels, but worse than the Originals. The fight itself was great, it was simple and not over-done. But it didn't feel as climactic or important than I think it should have.

Yeah, but Star Wars is supposed to have incredibly advanced technology. They can't prevent a death in childbirth?

>>78344285
Maul was menacing, had good fight scenes, and managed to communicate a lot with just stares and his animalistic pacing. Having Padme go "We'll take the long way" when Maul showed up told you everything you needed to know about Maul.

It's been on break for a few weeks, anon.

And they did this last season as well. A lot of shows do this. The Walking Dead, the biggest drama show on TV, does this and still pulls in millions.

>Obi-wan doesn't fight like he's mad or determined or anything after Qui-gon bites it, he just kinda goes back to fighting.

Are you kidding? He may not go full Luke(since he's had more training) but he does have anger on his face and fights more fiercely and more determined when the duel resumes.Obi-Wan goes back to his training and doesn't give in to his anger like Luke did. He gets control of himself.

>>78344264
>Dooku vs. Yoda/Anakin/Obi-Wan

That duel wasn't about emotional weight though, like Anakin vs. Obi-Wan or Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon vs Darth Maul. They weren't fighting for some emotional reason. They were trying to stop Dooku from escaping so that they could end the war before it really got started.

I don't see how the arena scene with a couple hundred Jedi is terrible.


And yes, other than the bad Padme x Anakin romance scenes in some parts of the film(mostly the scenes on Naboo and Geonosis), it's good.

>Right, things we do not see in the movies. But we do read a lot about in expanded materials
So Geonosis, Utapau, Christophsis, Felucia and others were never seen in the movies? The clone army and their gear and the droid army and their gear weren't in the movie?

>There is not a single character in TFA that give the same kind of vitrolic reaction as Jar Jar. Or 3PO on a B1s head
No, instead we have "The dastardly chrome plated Phasma! Now crushed into cube form after being made Chewie's bitch" and "Tasu Leech, that guy you may have bought a figure of who was in the movie for like two seconds!" And so many others. Sarco Plank was sure important in this movie, right?

They may not be comedic but there sure were a lot of characters they built up in the pre-release months that were wasted or non-existence potential.

Anybody got a link to the full soundtrack?

>>78344327
I can't, you're absolutely correct.

>>78344333
It is when you throw temper tantrums and blame daddy instead of dealing with it like a man. I agree with you on Finn and Poe though, I'd have preferred one of them to be the lead.

>>78344377
He was pretty good in Clones, I thought. He brawls with Obi-Wan (the guy that killed Darth Maul and defeats Anakin for the first time) man-to-man and in space, shoots that one Jedi that attacked Dooku, and is pretty menacing. Sure Mace Windu takes him out quickly, but Mace is Yoda-tier and Jango had just gotten trampled by a space-rhino.

>>78344452
Why?

>>78344430
You heard it hear folks.
If a character has any amount of internal struggle, they're emo.
Obviously we should also declare that if a character is fallible they're a weak character.

Well first of all, we know Phasma's coming back for the sequels. Also,I don't remember any of those guys being in the posters/trailers whatever.

More importantly, I don't see how being disappointed a side character didn't have enough screentime is equivalent to overly misplaced humor 0 people like

>literally crawling in his skin

Not sure what point you're trying to make. Haven't read the EU. And Kylo was refreshing because he wasn't a Vader clone. He was a dark side user pulled by the light. He wasn't some invincible badass. It was nice.

Boba's costume and gun are better but Jango gets way more characterization in the actual films.

Speaking of guns, I went to the Star Wars exhibit in NYC and got a bunch of Blaster pictures.

Unfortunately they're on my brother's phone and considering the amount of secret fetish bullshit I'm pretty sure he has on there, it's unlikely that he'll just let me borrow it for a little while to transfer files.

>>78344307
By far the best staged lightsaber fight. It looks gritty, realistic and more intense than any fight we've seen in Star Wars before, but the end of the fight was anticlimactic
The TFA duels were fast and visually impressive like the PT fights, but also intense, emotional and brutal like the OT fights.

>>78344480

[citation needed]

Pretty sure nothing was ever said about Kylo turning to the dark side because Han and Leia didn't love him. In fact, all we know is that Snoke turned him to the dark side.

>>78344480
Weird.
I don't remember Kylo doing that, or acting like that at all.

>>78344482
I'm saying he is crawling in his skin his wounds they will not heal. You know the quintessential emo song. And no evil because genetics characters are always awful

>>78344400
>They can't prevent a death in childbirth?
Padme didn't die from the childbirth itself, though. The droid said everything was going normal but Padme had no will to live afterwards. No medicine can prevent that, and in her case it would have been cruel to force her to stay alive.

>>78344480

Christ, not every duel needs to leave it's audience in tears.

ANH's duel sure as hell didn't. Neither did Luke's fight in the cave.

All of the fights are shown within the context of fighter competency.

>Prequels - An entire galaxy's worth of force-sensitive fighters. Why would they NOT be elaborate as hell?
>OT - The fighters are either old or crippled. Slow, visually unappealing, but important fights.
>TFA - The art of lightening combat is coming back, leads to combat which is a fusion of PT and OT.

Now that Star Wars is a comedy series, will we be getting a live-action family sitcom? Or rather, how soon will we get it?

More exposition was needed though. The plot about Kylo and a map to find Luke was fine but for some reason there was Death Star 3 and some planets blew up and no one cared about it much.

Jar Jar wasn't made for the adults, he was made for the kids, so unsurprisingly kids took to his antics better than adults. Rather like the ewoks. Whether you can conceive it or not your claim of "0 people" is flat out wrong.

What does Phasma coming back mean when you don't know how she'll be used? Jar Jar came back, after all. Also marketing was far more extensive than just trailers and posters (though Phasma was prominently displayed in the posters). The marketing blitz involved a lot of these characters who turned out to have little to no real presence in the movies. There is a difference between not receiving any large backstory on the Naboo Minister or Padme's personal guard, but there are characters the marketing pointed people to who ended up being nothing. You fixate on the humor instead of wasted character potential, which is the real point. Jar Jar could be said to have had too much screen time for too little actual impact, to the point where he detracted from the story. Others, and you can find them in this thread, were looking for characters that Disney/Lucasfilm had pushed on us who ended up being no significance or even any real presence in the film. In this case it isn't over exposure but under exposure. Both can lead to disappointment. You're building up Jar Jar as far more important because he is, to you, a figure of universal disgust. Okay. But the point wasn't universal but disappointment.

I really wish there was a look into all the corporations in Star Wars that act behind the scenes of the movies and everything else. Things like Sienar, BlasTech, Banking Clan, etc. It would be cool to see how they rationalize making weapons for the Empire and First Order, despite knowing what they are used for.

>>78344658

Luke's vision duel on Dagobah was at least interesting. As a viewer we had now idea what the fuck was going on and when Vader's "head" exploded shit got real. The duel at the end of AotC didn't have to have emotional weight, but it could have least been exciting. I especially had the part where Anakin gets the two lightsabers and prances around like a retard only for him just to literally stand stock still 20 seconds later so Dooku can cut his arm off. I could go into the Yoda stuff but it can really be summed up by saying it was unintentionally hilarious, especially's Yoda's battle cry.

>YEAAARGH

Yes, they had a practical set for the actors to stand on to end the scene. What's your point? It doesn't handwave the giant oceans of CGI, eye raping lava and the giant CGI towers where Obi-Wan and Anakin had their comical duel. The bit where they were swinging on ropes like Tarzan seriously didn't make you giggle a little?

>>78344770
Not gonna lie, that Yoda scream did spoil that fight. Lucas got on a weird kick about adding "dramatic" cries, the weirdest being Luke falling down the cloud city shaft using the Emperor's scream, of all things.

It's almost as if all the duels have context.
They were going up against Dooku, who was a well-respected and highly skilled Jedi master.

The whole fucking point of the fight was to emphasize how inexperienced and hotheaded Anakin was. That and the fact that they had to try and stop Dooku before he escaped.

Yoda was also added in to show how outclassed Doily himself was.

>>78344822

Horrid movie. Opening cluster fuck battle a complete bore. Nonsensical plot. Having the emperor and Yoda flipping around like retards instead of being mystical. Still using Jar Jar in a movie. Terrible romance between Padme and Anakin. Anakin and Obi fight hopping around on little robots for 30 minutes. Nooo!!

Do you know any kids that liked JarJar?

I was 9 when TPM came out and I know I didn't. TCW was a thing. Do you know any modern day kids that liked him? I don't think he succeeded in any capacity
