Revenge of the Sith. Kinda dull sometimes. I had a thought watching it last night.
Just imagine this. Palpy and Anakin are watching the opera. A servant brings Palpy a drink, offers one to Anakin, who is going to refuse but a look from Palpy makes him reconsider and he takes it. They are both having a drink throughout the scene.
No new dialogue. No new special effects. Just a little bit of business that:
- reinforces the subtext of the scene, serving as a kind of metaphor
- give the actors something to do other than stare at eachother.
- give the audience something to see other than bad greenscreen compositing.
Gah, hearing all the awesome ways the prequels could have been better makes them all that more difficult to watch! They definitely needed more stuff like that.
