Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (12/16/16) *SPOILERS*

[jye4ever]

Every child of every ILM employee getting exactly one cringeworthy line in the PT >>>>> "I know."

AOTC is so bad I don't even remember a single extra character from Coruscant after Anakin crashes that bounty hunters speeder.

Ok fine, I remember the death sticks guy.


Then there was this

Judging by Jye's posts and frequency, I bet any money he's watching Attack of the Clones right now.

[RIDDICK]

Damn, gonna be honest that looks pretty comfy Jye. Episode II kinda fits the tranquillity I see in that room. You might be onto something.

Take a new pic when Jango gets beheaded and it'll be perfect.

So Vader holding back on Luke during their fight was because he was already conflicted?

If he was conflicted why didn't he just say "Now Luke, attack the Emperor with me!"

Vader had already turned at that point. Vader turned the moment he found out he had a son (a few months after ANH).

The stuff with bringing Luke to the Emperor is a game Vader and Palps are playing.

Palps has no interest in turning Luke. Palps via his Sith power can see that Luke will in some way kill him. When he meets him and senses his abilities he realizes his vision of his own demise is trivial because Luke isn't very powerful. Palps basically pretends to be interested in seducing Luke when in reality all he wants is to kill him and in the process test Vader's loyalty once more - given that Vader's been acting up for some time.

From Vader's angle, the situation is ****ed. He fears the old man and fears for his son so he has to play this awful game of passive aggressiveness where he has to pretend a third Sith would be a welcome addition to the current hierarchy. In reality Vader is just buying time for Luke throughout the whole scene. He lets Luke beat him in the "fight" deeming that the best case scenario here is that Palps will kill Vader and will let Luke live because he'd become a replacement for him.

Thankfully, Palps gets tired of playing games and starts frying Luke - showing Vader the scenario he always wanted: one where he can save his son and kill the monster he's hated serving for 22 years by sacrificing himself.

I've always loved that Anakin's most important moments in life have been those where he is forced to make a choice most would cower from making. In ROTS, it first happens with Mace and Palps. If he allows Mace to kill Palps (which was staged as Palps was completely in control) Padme will die since only Palps knows how to stop people from dying. He ultimately makes the wrong decision. In ROTJ he's right back in that moment where if he allows Palps to kill Luke his only glimmer of hope will die and Vader has no intention of going back to a life of emptiness serving a monster. He ultimately makes the right decision.

I was ripping it when it came out last year. I wasn't paying $70 bucks for three maps and gameplay that we inferior to BF and BF2 for the PS2.


But when Best Buy had it on sale last week with all the DLC, expansion packs, maps, planets and new characters for $20 bucks, I had to spring. I'm getting my ass kicked online.

Hear, hear!

12 years later - still the best and most cinematic SW multiplayer experience.

Leia and her BS that she remembered her mom being sad...unless Bail told her about her mom which is highly possible.

So Vader holding back on Luke during their fight was because he was already conflicted?

Always thought Leia meant Mrs Breha Organa...maybe sad because she never had her own child.....had to settle for the child of an evil child killer.

Yes, Vader was Holding back.....by the time he has to really fight back....Luke is enraged and way more powerful than Vader.

BTW the way I had to make this gif.......No one had this series....couldnt believe it.

 

[Star Puffs]

Ugh. That diner scene in AOTC is the most clichéd and out-of-place element in the entire Star Wars canon.

Sounds like some of the stuff in Episode VIII could out-do it.

 

[jye4ever]

Ugh. All of AOTC is the most clichéd and out-of-place element in the entire Star Wars canon.
