Natalie Portman's character wasn't even a protagonist. Just a bunch of damsel in distress crap.

Girl nerds want some superheroes too.

She kicked some rear end in AotC (I refuse to spell out the name).

It would be hilarious and awesome if Marcia Lucas did a "fan" edit.

she did and it was called "Star Wars" :smugdog: (I realize we're talking about the prequels but still ZING!)

The cartoon miniseries or the CGI one? They're both good, though the former is more like one of those artsy anthologies you sometimes see comic book types in. Mace Windu punches a robot army to death. It rules.

I like to believe the Droids just outright hosed something up during the pregnancy and decided to just state she died to cover their rear end.

Is it possible Palpatine hosed with the droid so it killed her (keeping the kids though just in case he needs to replace Vader at a later date)?

I mean, my policy is "don't think too hard about this poo poo, Lucas sure didn't" and your interpretation is hilarious and I'll probably think about it if I ever watch those awful movies again, but it's a possible retcon, what with the emperor getting all giggly when Vader finds out.

If someone can fix the music by making it something not garbage and turn up the noises that aren't someone's garage band, I will buy them a forums upgrade of their choice, so :toxx: me.

Not only that, but their observations are all accurate - cutting to the heart of what Star Wars is about. But then they retreat from their conclusions with a weak fart.

The unresolved issue of droid slavery is the same as the unresolved issue of Chewie not getting a medal. The idea that Vader was the hero all along, dying to free the droids, is the true meaning of the six films.

Yes, Vader wanted to free the droids alright... free them up to work in the spice mines! :unsmigghh:

I assumed it was Tattoine until someone pointed it out to me today. Like, Geonosis is arid as well but was very visually distinct from Tattoine. I'm probably just nitpicking, but Jakku seems like some pretty :effort: poo poo

I don't know, I'm sort of glad they don't just go back to Tattoine every time they want a shithole planet to visit. It gets old after the billionth appearance.

I agree that Tattoine can go rot because it's in every one but ESB, I just don't see how Not-Tattoine is an improvement. :shrug:

I don't think one version of Yoda is objectively better than the other, the problem is just that they don't look like the same character. If you were used to one, the other would look jarring. It would be like replaced Homer Simpson with the weird photo - realistic Homer from that photoshop.

I wouldn't go that far. At best it'd be like using Mr. Sparkle instead, at worst like CGI Homer from, what was that, a Treehouse of Horror?
