"That sounds fair. Hey cool, we could have several of these type OT.com awards! " ____________________________________ good idea adam! Now is anyone voting for this award...or nominating themselves....??????
Dont get too attached to him kid..one day when your all grown up ..and I have more money ..I'm replacing him with a CGI version, or taking out of the movie all together. sorry kid..I have a VISION!
"OK, Anakin came back BREIFLY at the end of RotJ to talk to and save his son. Darth Vader even said a little while before that Anakin had no meaning for him" by Marioxb ____________________________________________________________ Came back from what..I dont buy this split personailty wrap for Vader. Sometimes good people get mixed up in a cult and do bad things and then one day they see the light. Vader was in denial of his life as Anakin. I dont think he was seperate from that idenitity. His life as Anakin and eventual deformity made him claim he had no relationship to Anakin.
Anakin even as a child and teen had dark elements to his personality, when he took on the lifestyle in the shadows of the emperor he just let those dark elements rule his life.I dont think he stepped outside of himself when he commited those acts against the galaxy, it was just a part of who he had become.
When someone is born special or extrodinary in some way there is usually a fine line between genius, or hero, and a pyscho-path. I think thats clearly Anakin/Vader. Some people are tempted by evil and over come it, some embrace it, I dont think thats nessecarily Dissociative Idenitity Disorder.
"What would you have him do? Have Luke, etc. wandering around the Death Star, and then cut to a little musical number with Yoda on Dagobah, singing, "Stayin' Alive" just so you know that he's... alive?"
"That's exactly the problem, though. It's not "a trilogy" anymore. It's parts 4, 5, and 6 of a complete saga. Yoda is not introduced in ESB, he's introduced in TPM. Because of that, having him in ANH actually makes more sense, as it would let you know that yes, after 20 years, the old jedi is still around. "
I agree ... It makes sense and thats the problem for me... unfortunately the new movies are made and now the old ones are being "corrected" to match the new ones. I just liked them the way they were to start with. I loved the idea of presequels just not at the expense of the original films.
I dont like the idea of inserting Yoda in ANH.. Ive always felt yoda's entrance into the saga was so magical..and thats the THING about the OT ..Its 100% MOVIE MAGIC..and I feel thats something that cant be reproduced or forced into a movie, it just happens....You know the chills you get while watching legendary films in a montage, for me thats the OT, in its originality. Since the prequels.. the struggle with making eveything flow and produce continuity kills some of the magic for me. I just enjoy the OT as the OT. It was perfect in my opinon before it was tweaked.
Starwars is so rare in the fact that most of the public accepts the fact that the Lucas can go in and change his film becux he isnt satisfied.. but MOST directors/writers/producers arent satisfied with their films but it would be a total sin to change a classic like Citizen Kane or Casablanca, granted starwars isnt equal on a acting scale as those films, but its a modern classic like those are classics..the OT are modern classics and in my opinion altering them in any way past upgrading the audio and clarity of the film is wrong.
ok heres my 2 cents.. 6 discs... 1 thru 3 prequels ...no changes on one side, flip the disc..updates and special features 4 thru 6 OT ...original star wars films on one side...special editions and special features
at least this way ..we have the OPTION to view starwars the way we enjoy it, and it might give the newer generation of fans a chance to view the OT unaltered.
I assume the show, if it happens, will be told by the driods.... BEST CASE SCENERIO: In the ROTS - ANH timeline we COULD get a decent show about Vaders conquest of the galaxy, although I dont see that actually happening. We couldnt get that lucky.
WORST CASE SCENERIO: Ewok village style show
IVE GOT A FEELING: I just got a feeling that the show is going to be made at which ever planet or place is cheapest to recreate.
