Star Wars: Ep. III tidbit

[Lil' Bitch 0]

The only way I'm going to enjoy Episode III is seeing the Jedi Knights getting brutally slaughtered after Chancellor Palpatine betrays the Republic and takes over.

 

Along with Jar Jar finally meeting his end (much to the rejoicing of many Star Wars fans)

 

Also with Amidala hopefully dying to causing Anakin to snap big time (worse than when he snapped when his mom died) and don the black suit with the classic breathing.

 

I could've cared less about Attack of The Clones, the movie was concentrated on the lovey dovey stuff with Anakin/Amidala/ Fuck that!

Right. Since Anakin and Padme looked into each others' eyes and immediately decided to fuck and have kids. As much as people hated it, the love story HAD to be done to build up the story. The only thing that brought it down was the acting and corny lines.

[Guest Spaceman Spiff]

On sheer storytelling merit, I think THX 1137 might have been the best story he's told, and the best movie he's made

Isn't it "THX 1138"?

 

The reason ESB was so great was that Lucas had a director who would stand up to Lucas (Marquand). McCallum is basically a yes-man for Lucas, and thus the story telling has been sub-par.

 

The only character to be handled perfectly so far in the prequels (IMO) has been Palpatine.

[Guest Retro Rob]

If you forget about the love crap from Ep II, it really wasn't that bad. I liked all of the Obi Wan scenes as well as the War and Yoda's fight.

[Guest evenflowDDT]

I want Jar Jar to survive, and then have Lucas digitally edit him into the original trilogy when he releases them to DVD. I love that little guy. His idiotic happenstance and racial character brings much laughter and is easily the most entertaining thing about the first two films.

 

As for "we already know how it's going to end!" ... do you think that time will actually have the movies played as a whole sextilogy? I doubt it. Everyone and their mother has seen the original trilogy first, and they'll show their kids these films first, so the "series" will always exist as two disjointed trilogies. So Lucas can and should do whatever the fuck he wants, I don't give a rat's ass about this trilogy, and I only give a rat's tail about the first one.

 

Let the man play with his toys. After all, who needs plot when you've got computers?

[Guest Sakura]

Kazuya Mishima was thrown into a volcano and is alive and well.

 

Of course he's an uber pimp who would beat the crap out of Vader.

[Guest Scarlet Pimpernel]

Agreed. The jedi get wiped out, anakin kills most of them, the emperor takes full power yadda yadda, but they end with obi-wan knocking anakin into a volanco or whatever injuries him into needing the vader gear, takes the twins, and badda bing episode 4 is set up with a happy ending that works.

And while all this is happening, we can have the official hamsterdance song playing in the background.

[Guest Prototype450]

I think what should make Anakin snap is the death of Amidala. It could be the final nail in the coffin or helmet (for lack of a better term). But it wouldn't work because of some dialouge from Leia in ROTJ as I believe someone said in the first page.

 

JAR JAR should die though. He could sacrifice himself so Yoda or Obi Wan can escape. It would make us JAR Jar haters happy

Mattdotcom didn't double post.

 

*Waves hand*

 

You may move along.

[Guest Mattdotcom]

Couldn't Leia be referring to her stepmother, though? That's what I've always thought.

[Guest Spaceman Spiff]

Then why would Luke ask Leia about her mother in ROTJ if it was only her step-mother?

[Guest El Satanico]

Well we can just go into Return of the Jedi and rewrite that dialoge.[/Lucas mode]

[Guest Mattdotcom]

I'm not following you, Spiff. I'm assuming that Leia never knew she was adopted and Luke didn't know his real mother was dead.

[Guest Big McLargeHuge]

We also have to keep in mind that Vader doesn't seem to know that he has a daughter (Leia).

 

Lucas wrote himself into a corner.

 

And I really don't want a happy ending in Episode 3. Have Anakin don the Vader gear, standing next to the Emporer while Obi-Wan hands Luke off to this Uncle Owen on Tatooine. I'll be happy. And yeah, I think Padme's death should make Anakin snap. If it's done by Dooku, you've got the perfect situation for him to become Palpatine's apprentice.

[Guest Spaceman Spiff]

I'm not following you, Spiff. I'm assuming that Leia never knew she was adopted and Luke didn't know his real mother was dead.

Considering the circumstances (Luke just learning Leia is his sister) and Leia's response ("beautiful" but "sad"), I thought it was pretty clear they were referring to their birth mother.

Amidala most likely won't die in the third film, do to rumors that Natilie Portman was informed shortly after filming of AOTC wrapped about how Lucas was going to have her film a special "epilogue" scene involving her character's final fate when filming of the next film started that would be retro-actively inserted into ROTJ when Return... gets released onto DVD.

 

This came about alongside the rumor that Lucas was also going to fuck with the ending of ROTJ in terms of the Jedi's final salute to Luke by way of digitally inserting the bulk of the cast of the Prequals as ghosts alongside Vader, Kenobi, and Yoda...

[Guest The Hamburglar]

All I want to see in this film is Palpatine go into full-on Emperor mode and fuck shit up. He's supposed to be the most powerful bastard around, so I want to see him fry some good guys. A Palpatine - Yoda fight would rock my balls.

Bwahahahahaha! But Luke wouldn't even know who those guys are! Thank God I'm not a Star Wars fan, so I can just sit back and laugh at that wacky George Lucas and his obsession with re-editing his own films with the magic computer machines.

Don't even speak of such things. My mind can't process such an awesome display of shite-wrecking by two of the major, major players in the Sandbox de Lucas.

[Guest Prototype450]

How come Palpatine just doesn't kill all the Jedi himself since he's "One bad fucker"? I mean if i had all that power i'd start waxin people left and right.

 

Well, then again this is comin from someone who got killed by a one armed man. Then again that one armed man Was Darth Fuckin Vader.

 

Ahhh, I'm just ranting.

[Guest Spaceman Spiff]

Palpy likes to keep it on the down-low, yo.

 

"Hard to see, the dark side is." If he goes out frying Jedi left & right, somebody's bound to catch on sooner or later.

[Guest Prototype450]

By the time they catch on wouldn't he have killed most of the Jedi by then?

Just guessing. im sure Obi wan would've had to shove a lightsaber up his ass.

Yes... let the Emperor challenge Yoda do a duel of the mastuhs... and then have Yoda go into ass whooping mode and proclaim that the Emperor bring it.

[Guest SP-1]

Hell. Forget story. An hour and a half of a globe-trotting Yoda/Palpatine battle would rock my socks off just fine.

LOL @ Palpatine going around doing random Jedi fryings with his electric zaps of death.
