In-universe, the story of Luke redeeming his father (who was basically space Satan) was super fucking impressive, and spread far and wide. They talk about this in TLJ.
Also, from a story point of view, the smaller more emotional climax of him redeeming space Hitler is far more cathartic and interesting as an audience (at least to me).
If Luke replaced Wedge in the final battle and blew up the core of the Death Star, he may have made a more apparent strategic difference, but his arc from the whiny farmboy in the first movie would be incomplete. He wouldn’t have used any of his new skills or anything he learned as a character if he just blew up the place.
If I was gonna change anything about the Luke stuff in the movie, I would have made the Emperor actually tempt him a little, because nothing he offers actually truly budges Luke.
Is there a list somewhere of the best silent films?
Do any of them pair well with Dark Side of the Moon?
Not cool. Too soon.
The comedy police is here! Hide the memes!!!
I fundamentally disagree with virtually everything you believe about Luke, but I respect your right to that opinion. It’s just… so completely alien to me? Like… I never read the character like that???
One… two… three Dooku’s! Ah ah ah…
If they fit the tone of the scene, I don’t see why not.
I’ve got an Executioner Storm Trooper. I really want a Rey or Luke figure.
I’ve been looking forward to this!
Aw, shucks.
The gang infiltrates the Imperial Capital!
That is insanely impressive. Great job!
I mean, it’s not wrong.
Here’s a hot take (and only my opinion): the soundtrack is only as memorable/effective as the movie it is a part of. The OT’s soundtracks are leagues better than the prequels partly because of the associations I have to the movie. Listening to ‘Luke and Leia’ reminds me of those characters that I love, while listening to ‘Across the Stars’ makes me feel almost nothing.
Recently I’ve gotten into a real weight loss kick and I’ve lost 10 pounds. 30 to go!
Yeah, but you’re leaving out the nonreligious population.
Furthermore, the ‘Skywalker Saga’ can only continue with a Skywalker. As we’ve been told in TLJ, there is only one still alive and I’m betting he doesn’t survive the next film.
Leia’s alive too.
Rian’s trilogy is definitely not gonna star ‘Temiri Blagg’.
Y’know, I know not wanting to see the movie is stupid and irrational, but I don’t care. Nothing you say can change my mind.
For all two minutes of his screentime in the trilogy, I really like Wedge.
^ That was a great read.
I must have hit pretty close to the mark to get you riled up like that.
Looks really really good. Would you consider releasing the color graded versions ???
A 1080p 25GB mkv version of the colour graded version will be uploaded soon for anyone that wants it.
Yeah, attack of the clones makes TFA look like complete trash, lol
to be fair imo it does
