Han Solo should've been the main character of the original trilogy. Harrison Ford is way cooler than Mark Hamill. When they first board the Millennium Falcon, Han should've turned to Luke, put his hand on his face and pushed him down the loading ramp. Then the door closes behind him and he says "Smell ya later, farm boy". Then the Millennium Falcon peels out and blows dust in Luke's face, and Han goes off to rescue the princess.

ROTJ is one of the weaker films in the series. OT sanctity be damned; a really good fight scene (Luke vs. Emperor + Vader) doesn't make for a good movie (Maul vs. Jinn + Kenobi proves it).

Best fight scene in the series, and best space battle in the series, best aliens in the series(Jabbas Palace). The Ewok fight is alright if you look at it in way of they were only distractions really. Eventually the Empire was going to overwhelm Han and Leia at the bunker. They were never going to be able to get in and Chewie was the real savior when he stole the AT-ST.

Return of the Jedi would've been better as either two movies or cutting out the first half entirely and not having Solo at all. of course they were obliged to. e: also the ewoks thing is fine as more of a "they were surprised and it broke unit cohesion" vs" they all loving died to tiny rodents" the movie makes it pretty clear the empire got it's poo poo together eventually but it was to late, they broke into the back door bunker (the real stupidity was having a back door) SRQ fucked around with this message at 09:17 on Apr 20, 2020 |

They kind of lose Han's character in ROTJ. He's no longer really the Han from the first two, he's ONLY there to make sarcastic, know-it-all quips. He's not a whole character anymore.

This is 100% Harrison Ford collecting his paycheck and thinking, "Man I can't wait to get this over with, I'm a megastar now, I don't have to be playing second fiddle to friggin' Mark Hamil anymore, yeesh."

Darth Vader sucked at his job. Lost the data tapes. Lost or fought to a draw in in some capacity in every conflict he's seen in. Even as Anakin he sucks unless he's fighting alongside someone better than he is or he's fighting things remarkably underclassed against him like sand people or literally defenseless children. You'd think the Emperor would notice his track record, "clouded by the darkside" or not and realize that he's batting like < .100 even by the time he asks him to try and get him Luke, which presumably is why he got and kept Vader as his apprentice in the first place (assuming the Emperor can somewhat see the future or what have you). So he fails at that too in the worst way possible as well, over-all he sucks at everything, even the whole "bringing balance to the force" crap doesn't work for him. Overall the guy won a pod-race.

Atton is an awful Han Solo wannabe and his grand exit in the cut ending is eye-rollingly bad (which I suppose is why it got cut, but someone still bothered to write and record that dialogue anyway) and I'm glad he's dead.

LOTR supplanted Star Wars as the best Star Wars, complete with its own lovely prequel trilogy that is still somehow better than the actual Star Wars prequels Disney's project to turn Star Wars into MCU #2 probably would have been saved by a two-hour movie of Emperor Sheev being the Senate.

the republic was probably hosed and heading for a civil war even if the "sith grand plan" wasn't a thing. episode 1 is the "best" prequel even though it feels like the climaxes of like 5 or 6 movies stitched together and it doesn't work. AOC and ROJ are both the worst on different levels. the Sequel trillogy is a mixed bag and it sucks that they never did poo poo with finn because i liked him in 7 and than he does jack poo poo in the other two. 8 has some cool ideas/concepts/scenes but much like the prequels it either fucks them up or favors themes over story. that being said i like sad broken luke and i like the whole kylo/rey/snoke poo poo and parts of the finn/rose thing. 9 was giant thrown together mess because JJ was trying to pull an ENDGAME with no material and pissed away the good stuff from 8. it also misses what made 7 fun/good. also the retconing of kylo doing bad poo poo is dumb but it does have some ok/good moments.

How would they have a B wing without a letter B? Also the X wing is one of the laziest designs in space cinema. Its just an airplane, but in space, with added wings so it looks more spacey

He did play a key role in keeping the emperor alive against Sam Jackson, which allowed the emperor to genocide the jedi down to two people. So two sith, two jedi, looks like balance to me. Now why the jedi, who were thousands strong and were an integral part of galactic governance, would ever want to be balanced with the sith, a reclusive order limited to two people at a time, is beyond me

The funeral scenes were all wrong. There should have been a song by something like thrid eye blind, they should have happened in the middle of the movie, and there should have been like scenes of characters talking and being real. Everyone should be dressed in earth funeral clothes. They should hold it at a presbetyrian church

FuturePastNow posted:Then why is there a B-Wing, huh? The B-wing is named as part of the series that gave us A-Wings and X-wings, all of which use galactic standard nomenclature from their alphabet and are localized using the roman alphabet when you view star wars. B isnt cannon, how many times do I have to say this???
