We have all laid out our misgivings about the Fredo Corleone of the OT, one Return of the Jedi. Here's another:

Can we discuss the scene where EV-9D9 is torturing a droid? What the hell is this scene doing in this movie? It's ridiculous, first of all; second of all, what is with all the changes in tone during the Tattooine portion of the film? 3PO and R2 playing comedy, then slave girls in chains, then a burping frog, then one creature eating another, then Han and Luke swapping vaudeville, then torturing droids....WTF??

It's not that the droid torture scene is disturbing as much as it is bizarre. This movie can't decide if it's trying to appeal to adults or kids, failing rather badly at both until reaching a genuinely good climax in the Throne Room.

Tortured droids. Discuss.
