5. My name means "Dark Father" in German... where's my kid?
Pankoki - 5/24/2005 6:56 PM Well I thought the movie was pretty darn good and it closed the trilogy smoothly and nicely. Maybe I'm simple minded? *looks at that statement* No I am not, so let me ellaborate. Anakin was a self conceited brat that if he didn't get it his way he would be whining, can you honestly say you would find this trait in another actor choice? I doubt it, both of them look like whiny brats to me. Now, I think its fair to say that Lucas has an obscene amount of gold and his ideas are scrutnized by a large staff of wannabe Star Wars fans when they come out of his nobwocket. And thus I am fairly certain that all your complaints about accuracy or plot survival were analyzed and scrutinized by him. Ultimately he made a director and writer decision to leave certain things out, or leave certain things in. Of course the story is going to be different from 30 years ago. IT HAS BEEN 30 YEARS!! Do you honestly expect the man to remain the same in that time? His literally skills obviously morphed in that time as well, whether for good or bad, they did. Its his blooming story if he wants to have midichlorians or any other weird method of whatever, its how he envisions his world. When you come up with the next star wars then I'll make sure to remind you this when you make an writer's call. Truthfully the same argument that springs everytime an old series is brought forth into this century's technology is kinda silly. A lot of things have changed for worse or better and the mere fact that now you get to see further more of the writer had in his mind is simply amazing. Whether you like the outcome or not. But I guess I'm simple minded cause I thought the whole story and movie were great. Ah well. I get to enjoy it and you don't
Pankoki - 5/24/2005 9:41 PM ((Never would I take it as personal attack)) As far as the Jedi being stabbed in the back. Well they were stabbed in the back, remember before they were fighting robots and were at the ready, this time they were unprepared and trusting of these humanoid. Personally I see no problem with that, the fact that the real nasty Jedi survived was good enough for me. Anakin was tainted and corrupted. He was beyond any control of his emotions and lost to the dark side. He was clouded and simply had no idea what he was doing. His reaction was simply out of idiocy. Heh... like I said, conceited brat.

ZeroVega - 5/24/2005 9:43 PM I'd still think that the Jedi would have been able to sense that something was amiss as the bad dudes were getting ready to kill them, but you make a fair point that they were killed by trusted people.
