well, i think that the “so this is how liberty dies - with thunderous applause” moment in RotS is absolutely amazing, for example.
lol. She’s just stating the obvious.
It might’ve work if she had just said, “so this is how liberty dies.” Period.
well, i disagree. i think it’s a good line accompanied by a great score and a pretty good delivery by portman.
I agree. It’s a standout moment in the prequels to me. If the Senate hadn’t been made out to seem nearly as stupid, and the deception of Palpatine over the Senate was done more gracefully, than the moment would have had more power.
But it is a great moment on its own. A great line with great music and one awesome looking shot to cap everyting off (Seeing Palpatine raise his hands from behind).
