Star Wars: Episode VII **NO SPOILERS**

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?

Which Of those quotes didnt you say?

 
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.

 
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.

Did you delete it? I don't see any of my silly rant quoted in your posts.
