St. Jimmy Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Yeah, it would have been wicked to see him fight a decent battle vs. the emperor and Anakin. you could see his cool sabre-style compared to theirs and it would have delveloped Anakin a little more.

=DEATH STAR= Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 And another thing: when Anakin leap to kill Obi-Wan on Mustafar, don't you think that he could have 'forseen' what Obi was going to do? I mean it was a huge swing, in a way like a bat, and Anakin leap like 4 feet off the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Char Ell Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 ^^^ Obi-Wan had the high ground , reminded Anakin/Vader of this fact, and advised him not to try it no less. Anakin jumped a lot higher than 4 feet during the last moments he had with his 3 remaining natural appendages, otherwise he would have jumped right into Obi-Wan. Basically Anakin/Vader arrogantly overestimated his new darkside abilities and paid a heavy price. I liked Episodes 1-3. I think George Lucas used much the same formula as he did with the OT. I think many people's complaints about the PT stem from the fact that they were a lot younger when they saw the OT and don't take into account the fact that their tastes in movies changed between 1987 and 1999.

PoiuyWired Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Well, I do think the Palpy ganking scene is a bit cheesy. Sure he is powerful, lot more powerful then the jedi masters save Mace, but you would think them jedis would at least be able to block a few hits before going down. I mean even a lucky morgukai have a chance of blocking a hit or two, not to mention jedi masters. And yes, Mace make funny faces before he die... As for Love Scene, if they can't do it nice, then keep it short. Long bad scenes have adverse effect to the whole story. Its like, if you can't have a good line, just don't say it. I find that a few of the scenes would look/work better if you can mute the dialogue, leaving just the music. In regards to the "blood or gore" statement that was made, I don't wanna sound like a nerd, but it's kind of hard to show actual blood because when a laser goes through flesh it cauterizes(spelling?). For those few that aren't sure what this means, it means that a wound it closed by super-heating the flesh. This prevents bleeding...yea...sorry for that rant. That does not prevent people from crushed by random objects, or blown into pieces, or half molten by turbo-laser, or... you get the picture.

Commander Obi-Wan Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I liked the prequels. He may have made a mistake on some of te characters and scenes, but he still did a good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So having a big heavy thing on top of you now makes you burst into pieces? Since when? Usually when someone is pinned down by a heavy thing, they get mad bruises, but don't bleed like they got shot.

Nedak Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share Posted July 20, 2006 Yes of course but somthing sharp had to atleast give him a gash on his leg. And right after he 'woke up' he got up and started walking, like nothing happend; took on Grevious,ect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And right after he 'woke up' he got up and started walking, like nothing happend; took on Grevious,ect. Which shows that no real damage was done. He was knocked out for a while. That's about it. No point in showing blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grrrrrrrrrr7 Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 ............Anakin and Obi-Wan make their way through the Federation Cruiser, fighting through an army of droids. Meanwhile, R2-D2 aids Obi-Wan and Anakin from the hangar bay while simultaneously fending off a pair of super battle droids. The Jedi reach the room where Count Dooku is holding Chancellor Palpatine captive. A lightsaber battle ensues, with the two Jedi teaming up against Dooku. During the battle, Obi-Wan is rendered unconscious when Dooku uses the Force to hold him in mid-air, then hurls him against a wall................ (From a Wookieepedia article, you can find it here) Sorry it doesn't give all the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoiuyWired Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 ... maybe Obi was having wet dreams about his dead girlfriend all night long... OR, maybe cause he got flicking force choked and slammed around the ship. I think the second one makes the most sense. Then again I know there is also the theory of Palpy helping out indirectly, but think its more of a fanon than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrawn3.14 Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 Another thing why couldn't Dooku sense that Sidious was going to betray him? I mean in the book for ROTS, Mace could sense everything that a padawan or fellow master was trying to hide from him by reaching out with the force. And when Yoda and Sidious are battling in the Senate Rotunda, Yoda should have tryed to use the force sooner. All he did was jump from place to place, dodging thing hurled at him. I think he's powerful enough to block and hurl them back at Sidious. (He did this ONCE) If the chancellor of the Republic Who is also a Sith Lord can hide this fact when the jedi temple is on the same planet, It would make sense that he can conceal his deception which he wasn't really planning (either outcome in the duel would have been beneficial to him) from a single sith lord.

Thrawn3.14 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 What? I'm trying to say that if Palpatine can lie to the Entire republic (Jedi Included), It shoud be relatively simple for him to conceal his deception. In the duel, either outcome Anikan or Dooku being victorious, would have benefitted Sidious. The duel was essentially a test, the victor would obviously be more powerful than the other, ensuring Sidous the most powerful of the two as his apprentice. Had Dooku been victorious, the only Jedi capable of destroying Sidious, would be eliminated. Had Anikan won, the events seen in ROTS would have unfolded as we saw. Depending on your interpretation of the prophesy of the chosen one, Only one outcome would be benificial as Anikan was the only one able to bring balance to the force through the destruction of the jedi order.

aner21 Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 There was another think that really p*ssed me of in the prequels. In the OT Obi-Wan states that if the Emperor ever found out about Anakins children they would be hunted down without any mercy. However in the PT he uses that fact to lure him to the darkside. So before he knew and afterwards he didn't??? What about Leia knowing her mother and Luke not knowing? Was she born with her eyes open an Luke with his closed? Of course you can say she remembered her adoptive mother but Luke clearly states "your real mother". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
