Agent ONE Posted October 5, 2010 Posted October 5, 2010 ???? :blink: :blink: Dude, I have seen the movie, Jarjar lives... Where is that video from? Maybe I have been living in a cave or something. Quote
taksraven Posted October 5, 2010 Posted October 5, 2010 Dude, I have seen the movie, Jarjar lives... Where is that video from? Maybe I have been living in a cave or something. Soz bro, I thought for a second that you might not understand the whole "Everybody hates Jar-Jar" thing. Fair enough. The video I posted was from a cutscene and somebody else other than Lucasfilm had edited it to make it look like Jar Jar dies..... Taksraven Quote

Keith Posted October 5, 2010 Posted October 5, 2010 (edited) Far more wasted than Darth Maul, was Qui Gon Jin. He should have been in all 3 movies, culminating in Anakin sitting back as Palpatine killed him (would have been far more meaningful than Mace Windu dying), resulting in Anakin's final turn to the darkside. Also, if "anyone" was going to be edited into Jedi, it should have been QGJ. Edited October 5, 2010 by Keith Quote

If he wanted a death in the first impact to show that things were dangerous, we all know who should have died..... Taksraven Quote
Black Valkyrie Posted October 5, 2010 Posted October 5, 2010 Nice way to finish off Jarjar. As for SW in 3D not really interested, better to make new series like the CW but in the original trilogy time line. Quote
derex3592 Posted October 5, 2010 Posted October 5, 2010 As a life long SW fan, I'm gonna go with PASS on the 3-D stuff. I'm just not into it. I think it's a passing fad. Maybe I'm wrong. Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted October 5, 2010 Posted October 5, 2010 Meh, I'm already not interested in 3D. Quote
Vepariga Posted October 5, 2010 Posted October 5, 2010 I'll decide when its out, side note,that jarjar deleted scene was awesome. i love the scream then boom haha. Quote
Uxi Posted October 6, 2010 Posted October 6, 2010 I'll probably go to the movies just for the whole environment again, but doubt I'll buy any 3D Blu-ray until I get a 3DTV. Quote

Also, if "anyone" was going to be edited into Jedi, it should have been QGJ. Qui Gon should have been Anakin's father. He finds Anakin and begins to train him as a Jedi as a way to right a past wrong (for knocking up Mama Skywalker). It would have given their relationship some resonance and also a reason for Obi Wan to take up Anakin's training. Would have been interesting having him in other movies, maybe killed in Ep. 1, but appearing in the other two prequels as a Force ghost to Anakin, the way Obi Wan was for Luke. The "virgin birth/Darth Plageus" idea, like most of what's in the prequels, makes no sense. Quote

SilentCrossHairs Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 Will pass. Lucas needs to make a whole new trilogy. Focusing on Han and Leias kids. Quote
jenius Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 I actually like that Anakin is either Sidius or his master's son. Roofy's are strong with the darkside. Was that even implied though? I thought Lucas was just picking common historical tropes and wedging them into Star Wars... "Hmm, what haven't I wedged in yet? Oh yeah, virgin birth!" I even thought it was mentioned that a convergence of midichlorians (spew) could cause a virgin birth. The implication in both cases is that there was no darkside father to Anakin (although that's obviously a cooler story so I could see why people would prefer that). Quote

The implication in both cases is that there was no darkside father to Anakin (although that's obviously a cooler story so I could see why people would prefer that). Sith spells it out clearly enough for me. Palpetine's little opera side chat with Anakin (imo) is his confession of involvement/known involvement in Anakin's birth. Either Plageus or Sideus set forth to make the ultimate apprentice, and succeeded. Factor in Shmi's ability to take a Tuskan Raider gang bang & still greet Anakin with a smile, and it's not hard to imagine Plageus or Sideus picking her at random to be their baby's mama. Tatooine itself is a great environment to raise a strong force user. Harsh climate, adverse conditions, pod racing. It ensure's that initial developement would either provide a strong individual, or kill off a weak one. Edited January 5, 2011 by Keith Quote
Dobber Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 I got to say, I never took that scene as you described it, but....wow, that is pretty cool. I may be the only one here but the Clone Wars series is really letting me appreciate episode III much more. The fleshed out backgrounds for the characters really does make me feel for them much more in the movie, particularly Anakin. Chris Quote

The fleshed out backgrounds for the characters really does make me feel for them much more in the movie, particularly Anakin. Yeah, I hear you. It's cool seeing Anakin being so close to R2 in the Clone Wars series. Even risking his life or his team to save R2. That really was his droid since Attack of the Clones. He often treats R2 like his best friend or like a great dog, that will stay by your side, relying on him for a lot. If they keep this up, it may actually make the trench run scene in A New Hope harder to watch when he as Vader, blows away R2. Quote

Just who made it possible for Chewbacca to put 3PO's parts back together in prison? Edited January 6, 2011 by Keith Quote
Dobber Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 I also liked how Vader prevented Fett from shooting Chewie.....since when does Vader give a poo about a Wookie? Or maybe he didn't want his creation (3P0) from being hit. Chris Quote

Or maybe he didn't want his creation (3P0) from being hit. Chris Yeah, I always thought that it was Vader keeping Fett on a leash. Vader also knew that Luke would be getting visions of what was going and maybe if he saw his friends being *killed* in the future it would have been trickier to lead Luke into the trap. And maybe Vader had plans to enjoy killing the likes of Chewie in the future himself. If there was a bounty on Han you would have thought there would have been one on Chewbacca, especially since Jabba seems so happy to receive him in ROTJ. Quote
Vepariga Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Vader had other plans for the wookie and leia. probably to keep as a back up plan for the turning of luke. Quote
big F Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 So with this new way of looking at it, Luke kills Vader, Vader kills, Sidious/Palpatine. So Son kills Dad who kills his dad, Nice family, good job Luke has no kids eh! Quote

BeyondTheGrave Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Blu-ray Not sure if they'll be the original theatrical release or the special editions. Quote
jenius Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 I don't want to Poo-poo the "Sidious or Plaegus is Anakin's father" theory too much 'cause I like it but that scene shows Sidious lying to Anakin so it's not very solid evidence. Remember later in the movie Anakin's like "Sweet, I'm evil, you implied I could save people from dying, let's do this!" and Sidious is like "Oh, about that... maybe we'll get there some day." He's just feeding Anakin old wive's tales to convince Anakin to join the dark side. Quote
taksraven Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Blu-ray Not sure if they'll be the original theatrical release or the special editions. Probably another variation on the Special Edition. Ol' George can't help himself. But the big question really is: Original Version - Han fires first. First Special Edition: Han fires second Second Special Edition: They both fire at the same time Blu-Ray Edition: I dunno, they kiss and make up?? Quote

myk Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 I'd wager 3P0, Vader don't give a sh!t 'bout no kids or Wookies. I killed them. I killed them all. They're dead, every single one of them. And not just the men, but the women and the children, too. They're like animals, and I slaughtered them like animals. I hate them! Favorite part of the movie, lol... Quote
Keith Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) Pre-ordered like a muthaf^ck! Edited January 7, 2011 by Keith Quote
big F Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Only problem is that Luke did not kill Vader, Vader killed himself chucking ol grumpy face down the energy thingamajob. Luke may have not directly given the killer blow but he certainly messed up Vader beyond economical repair, on hand missing and life support a bit messed up wheezing and stuff, Palpatine was just an accessory to the fact. Either way the whole saga just ends there as next scenes are all just the teddy bears picnic and who ho !!! lets party etc. Quote
