EbylHusker Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 But I thought ... I see, so you've resorted to defending the movies by trolling with semantics. Got it. When you actually want to start talking about the movies again instead of trolling, let me know. Quote Link to comment

EbylHusker Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Um, if you're going to claim I said something, you might want to actually make sure all the quotes you use are things I've posted... So now the question is - was that dishonesty intentional or accidental? Quote Link to comment

Army_Allen Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I done goofed is all. Ebyl and Ulty both were posting similar stuff about their hatred one right after the other and I mixed up their posts when I looked at who posted what. So apologies for that. Ulty is the one I am quoting in that regard then. Quote Link to comment
Hoosker Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 To Anyone Defending the Prequels... Please do me and everyone else a favor and answer this: How does Yoda using a lightsaber NOT completely ruin his character and, in turn, the entire mythology of the saga? During the ending of Episode II: Attack of the Clones, we see Yoda pull out a lightsaber during his duel with Count Whoever. He has to jump all around the room and do all sorts of acrobatic things just to keep up because he's so much smaller. He has a handicap based on his size when his character should be above that sort of thing. "Size matters not. Look at me! Judge me by my size, do you?" Complete contradiction right there. Correct me if I'm wrong, but what made Yoda so magical in Empire was that you didn't expect this tiny creature to be a Jedi master. We all had this image of who Yoda was or what he might look like based on what we assume a "great warrior" to look like. By making Yoda a little guy, they were illustrating that the Force was something beyond the physical. This is only one of the many things I could criticize about the prequels. I believe it to be the most convincing proof that the prequels were not only bad movies on their own, but were damaging to the original trilogy as well. That's what you're upset about? You know he's embracing the force when he's jumping right? Every Jedi could do those moves and Yoda is no exception. Why not use his size to his advantage there? He was also younger in the prequels and more nimble in that span of 30-40 years I'm assuming. So that's gotta be taken into account. Quote Link to comment

zoogs Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I compiled the pictures since the article just had the group shot. John Boyega Daisy Ridley (Jaina Solo?) Adam Driver as what I can only assume is Jar Jar Binks Oscar Isaac as the guy that stares at people and asks them, 'What the hell, man.' Andy Serkis Domhnall Gleeson as Faramir Max von Sydow as Obviously The Villain Mark Hamill as Bill Belichick Harrison Ford as Liam Neeson Carrie Fisher 3 Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 Hamill is looking rough. Quote Link to comment
NUinID Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Hamill is looking rough. Hamill's face was really messed up in his accident between the first 2 movies. That is why they added the scene with the yeti like creature in the cave. That way they could explain the change in his appearance. Quote Link to comment
