This was a related video

Has a funny top comment

LegalFuhrer Youtubed:

Mother,? I got a girlfriend!

TOO BAD

SHE'S

A GUY

Anyway, um this one was pretty bad:

Padme: "It's only because, I'm so in love."
Anakin: "No, *little laugh* no, it's because, I'm so in love with you."
Padme: "So love has blinded you?"
Anakin: *nervous laugh* "Well, that's not exactly what I meant."
Padme: "But it's probably true."

^Uh-huh. This is a total mess.

The Techo Union EEEOOOHHHEEEEEHHOOHHEEOOEEOEEHHH

Yeah, that's pretty awful.

"Anakin!" (spoken by Padme as she hugs him after the fight with Dooku).

Bear with me here, and correct me if I'm wrong. The Jedi aren't supposed to get attached. Padme runs up and hugs Anakin (and ignores Obi-Wan) right in front of both Obi-Wan and fracking Yoda! And yet they aren't suspicious.

Grrrrr....

Of course, this is from the novels which nobody on this site considers worthwhile, but in Ep. II Obi-Wan actually strongly suspects and voices his concerns to Mace Windu when Anakin is assigned to protect Padme. Mace tells him it's a part of his growth and testing to keep his emotions in check. In the novel for Ep. III, Obi-Wan states that he knew all along that they were involved, and not just when he states, "Anakin is the father, isn't he?" But what's that worth to you?

As for staying on topic..."Get 'im, Dad! Get 'im!"

It still doesn't make it at all better.

Jedi thought PT 101: "When you have a Senator your organization is hired to protect from assassination. Simply put a Jedi in training on the case. To test if they'll break the no romantic relationship rule! Two for one deal! Yes a horny Jedi teen we've trained to use mind control and, an attractive young diplomat alone together!!!"

I sometimes expect them to get upset or even "angry", but that is still within the boundaries of "discussion".

It only becomes trolling when the actual expressed position is dishonest and faked, rather than being genuine.

There's crap in the ROTS fight, no question. But the PR fight is very simplistic. Basically guy turns around and shoots other guy. Where is the comparison?

That's exactly my point I posted a power ranger fight that is pretty damn simplistic. The original posts I quoted assumed if the fights were more like power rangers it'd automatically be worse then "overly flashy and didn't have much logic to them". Well I just posted fights to the contrary.

TV's Frink said:
And anyway, my specific comment re: Transformers was with regard to your comment that there are over 700 episodes and thus there must be some quality involved. I just don't see that argument here.

Fine if you don't want to read the rest of my previous post or, attempt to watch any of the other clips. You seem fixated on this one line of my post. I'll just post some pictures here. You hypothetically have the power to save one planet. I'll post the worst conditions I can find of each planet that's been invaded.

In each one I'm showing you the effects on the non-soldier non-hero characters in the story. What each one showed the average every day person has to deal with. Which planet would you save? Which one makes you believe that the people are dying without the hero characters help?

I watched the first clip and thought it was terrible. Bad music, bad acting, and some seriously awful costumes (especially the dog).

This thread is about the fights. I was comparing the fights specifically. Yes there's better music and, costumes in the prequels I won't deny that. However, what do you think about the comparison of that fight to the ROTS fight right below it?

TMBTM said:

Frink wanted to say that quantity does not mean quality. A reply to your power rangers quote.

At least that's how I understand it.

While I agree quantity does not mean quality. It also means that even something done with most people behind it trying hard could fall down to ridiculousness with so much done. I mean even Star Trek has the Voyager Threshold episode. Hell someone non-Star Wars fan but, curious might watch Jar Jar clips because, they heard somewhere that the writer/director/creator guy said "Jar Jar's the key to this(Star Wars)." Assume that's all Star Wars is about and, decide not to waste their time with actually watching any full Star Wars movie.

If you actually watch at the very least the first clip I posted there's an assassination attempt and, a power ranger battle in 3:11(as in that's all you have to watch a little over 3 minutes is the full clip) of the clip. I ask you to compare that to the ROTS clip I posted and, the assassination attempt on Padme in AOTC. Tell me truthfully which one seems more realistic?

Power Rangers has over 700 episodes. You honestly think there's no way that there's zero quality in there?

Bay's Transformers has over 2 movies.

And that's related to my post how? Did you actually watch any of the clips I posted or, did you just stop reading there? Again what does Bay's Transformers have anything to do with what I posted?

Frankly regardless of your opinion of the Adam West tv show I think every Batman fan today owes it respect. Why? Because without it the Batman comics would've been cancelled in the 60s!!! So, no "killing joke", no Burton films, no Nolan films, no animated series. NONE of that without Adam West tv show!!!!

http://www.tv.com/batman-1966/show/713/summary.html

Batman creator, Bob Kane, noted that this series saved the Batman comic series from cancellation when the show revived the character's popularity. Despite this, most comic fans despised this series for stereotyping superheroes and comics as campy nonsense. Furthermore, soon after the show was canceled, the character's comic series took on a dark and deadly serious tone that was reminiscent of the original comics in the late 1930's as a reaction to the TV show's light touch.

what bothers me is the OT duels at least had a sense of realism to them where the PT was nothing more than 2 hr long power ranger episodes.

ChainsawAsh said:

2 hour long Power Ranger episodes? I don't think so.

They were overly flashy and didn't have much logic to them, I agree with that. A Jedi should be able to hold his own in a duel while conserving as much energy as possible, which would be accomplished by only striking or defending when necessary. Doing unnecessary flips and twirls ruins that, and makes the Jedi look ridiculous.

But Power Rangers? Come on.

...Ya'll say that like it's automatically a bad thing. I'll leave you to your opinions so long as you hear me out.

Power Rangers has over 700 episodes. You honestly think there's no way that there's zero quality in there? Frankly I think that the Star Wars prequels fights/dialogue sometimes loose against Power Rangers episodes.

I'll let footage speak for itself.

Similar context: A friend is bad battling against the good friend. With Dialog.

Power Rangers fight scene as it appears in the actual episode
Anakin vs. Obiwan ROTS: FAN EDITED TO BE SHORTER AND, TO CUT OUT THE YODA/PALPATINE FIGHT!

Side by side. If you haven't watched ROTS recently check out the clip for a more accurate comparison. Now honestly and, objectively which fight is more unbelievable?

Unfair you say? It's just a Power Rangers clip against a Star Wars Prequel clip in similar story contexts. Okay maybe I was a bit unfair multi-million dollar Star Wars movie production clip against low budget Power Rangers clip. Yes, Star Wars does deserve to have more help. {/sarcasm} So here ya go an entire 20 some minute Power Rangers eppy. Campared to a random Star Wars prequel clip. Only similarities you're supposed to feel scared for the characters and, it's a dark interior.

Random Power Rangers episode pt. 1
Random Power Rangers episode pt. 2
Random Power Rangers episode pt. 3
Star Wars AOTC clip with dialogue this time NO fan edit!!!

In terms of fighting which of the above was better?

Unfair, you say again? I chose to show you gun battles vs. melee battles? They're not comparable you say? *sigh* Fine. Hear ya go Power Rangers with super powers vs. a Star Wars prequel hardly powers using clip.

Power Rangers as it appears in episode
Star Wars ROTS fan edited

Though from a story context point of view there not comparable at all. A more comparable from story perspective fight in Power Rangers is here:

Lord Zedd vs. Tommy

To be honest the ONLY reason Palpatine stood a damn chance in that battle is because, the lightsaber can cut through steel like butter. He also has the power of the dark side clouding his apposition. Zedd just has an unreliable staff with no dark side mind clouding abilities. Palpatine is visibly tired otherwise. Zedd not so much. Hell take a look at the damn dialogue!

Power Rangers-
Tommy: *does some 'Hiyas'* "Okay Zedd, I'm ready for ya'!"
Zedd: "I'm far more powerful then you could ever handle White ranger!"
Tommy: *slight laugh* "We'll just have to see about that. Now won't we?"
Zedd: "Are those 'Hiyas' really necessary? Here I'll do some (mockingly) 'Ooo Ooo'. Come and, get me."

Star Wars-
Palpatine: "No, no, no, you will die!" *lightning shoot*
"He's a traitor!"
Windu: "He is the traitor uh!"
Palpatine: "I have the power to save Padme's life. You must choose!"

To me the Star Wars dialogue makes Anakin a complete moron and, Windu & Palpatine sound like children fighting over a toy. Meanwhile, the Power Rangers dialogue is far more natural and, actually makes sense! I mean one has some guy that just said "you will die" trying to play a victim while he's using a Sith trait of force lightning on a jedi knight. The other has a villian mocking the sounds the hero is making.

And, hell what about consequences to the War in the Galaxy? As plinkett pointed out there's not much. Meanwhile, in Power Rangers here's an instance of the world being occupied and, in shambles. Versus Naboo being invaded with the trade federation.

Power Rangers
Star Wars Occupied Naboo

In the Star Wars clip I want you to find a single indication that the general Naboo populace are not free to just sit at home in a nice cozy bed and, just watch tv. Are the droids invading or, visiting? Remember we're meant to believe these people are dying like, now and, stuff.

Meanwhile, in Power Rangers you see destroyed building debris, populace being pushed around, people are dirty, starving, need to create fire for heat at night. They spend what might be their last days alive sleeping in the scattered debris. Some are also injured. They try to stand up for themselves and, GET SHOT AT! Where is ANY of that in the Star Wars prequels??!! The regular populace in the prequels are mostly just going about there daily routine.

Yes there is some outrages stuff that does happen in Power Rangers. However considering they had an entire season taking place in a future where some 90% of Earth is dead.(clip) The survivors are forced to live in a protective dome. If the Star Wars prequels actually were more like Power Rangers I think they'd be a lot better... Course I could be wrong. Two guys fighting around lava... Expertly jumping to a 4 foot round platform in a river of lava, one guy jumping some 200 feet at least to do so... Only protected by cloth robes... Telling the guy able to jump some 200 feet escaping a lava fall that "It's over! I have the high ground" when standing just 4 feet higher... Yeah, all that could be way more realistic then the Power Rangers clip I posted of Dru just taking a gun and, shooting Sky.

I'm just saying hear me out on this one and, actually watch the posted clips side by side.

Why do I never put things where I'll be able to find them again?

Sometimes, within seconds of last using the TV remote, I have such little idea where it is that it takes me full-on minutes to find it again.

I think the last subconscious thought to go through my brain is- "Well, I'll never need this thing again!" *wub-wub-wub-sound-as-it-soars-over-my-shoulder-into-the-ether"

I've realized it's far more sinister than this!

I think that my subconscious now_self actually has a deep hatred of my future_self and does everything he can to subvert his actions.

NS: Hehheheh... Future_Self will never find the remote, if I hide it from him!
FS: Of course I will! Because I am the future you, I know everything you know!
NS: True! But if I don't pay the slightest bit of attention to where I put the remote, then you won't know BECAUSE I don't know!
FS: NOoooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo!
NS: Muwahahahahahahahahaaa!
FS: I'll get you for this!
NS: You can't, because by the time you exist, I'll be long gone!
FS: You Bas****!
NS: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAALLLL UUUUULLLLLLLLLLTTTTTTIIIIIMMMMMMMMAAAAAATTTTTTTEEEEEEEEE PPPPPPPPPPPPOOOOOOOOWWWWWWEEEEERRRRRR!
FS: Remote! Remote! Come in, TV remote! Argh, WHERE COULD IT BE?!?!?
NS: YOU'LL NEVER FIND IT! Buwhahahahahaha!

I'm not sure why now_self hates future_self so much. Maybe it's because now_self is mad that he doesn't have time to watch TV right now and future_self will.
