Yoda, for example. We all knew who Yoda was. We knew the character. Kershner knew the character. Lucas didn't. In Lucas' head, Yoda is a CG frog with a lightsabre, always up for a fight and who talks in ridiculous sentences. He is dumb, violent and has relations with wookies.

You notice how when Lucas writes for Yoda EVERYTHING he says is backwards? I hate it. In the OT he only talks that way perodically.

Backwards: "Looking? Found someone you have I would say?"

Normal: "I cannot teach him. They boy has no patients."
"Much anger in him. Like his father."
"No, no he is too old. Too old to begin the training."
"Will he finish what he begins?"
"You must feel the force around you."

Backwards: "Yes, yes. To Obi-Wan you listen."
"Told you did I. Reckless is he. Now, maters are worse."

About 2/3rds of his dialogue is normal. In the PT, I dare you to find a line he says normally. God I hate the way he was in those shitty movies.

You have to admit, though, that George snuck it in pretty sneakily. I guess it's because Yoda had a relatively minor role in TPM. But by the time they got to the Clone War at the end of AOTC, that's when it really started to go down the toilets. It sounded like one of those pullstring dolls that had been left out in the rain. "To the forward command center, take me!"?! "Around the survivors a perimeter create!"?! What the hell was that shit? And it got worse in Sith with, "A prophecy that misread could have been." It took me several seconds to figure out what the hell he was saying!

I'll take your dare to find a normal line of dialogue in the PT. I give up. You win.
