People only liked Vader because of visuals as well. At least at first. Well combined with his voice.

Lightning Lord posted:I think it's more what a hit Darth Vader and Darth Maul were in terms of merchandising. They were expecting that trend to just repeat. And to their credit, Ren was somewhat popular. It's just that "Vader fanboy villain" has its limits, and Rey and Fin were just inherently way more interesting.

John Boyega was pretty fantastic. Daisy Ridley was flat in pretty much every one of her scenes and Adam Driver is just terrible.

We'll sort of its Jedi robe armor. Which makes sense as we only see him wearing that during his backstory, which involves a war.

Both Revans and RENs designs get the job they are trying to do done, keeping their identities secret until the plot calls them to be revealed, but not much else.

Maybe you'll like Revan's design better removed from ancient graphics.

In the second KOTOR game, all these characters pontificate on how Revan was such a classic legend, but then all the fans fully bought into it, and now Revan has his own sub-fandom nearly as annoying as the one that thinks the MANDOS are at least as important to the storyline as the Jedi and the Sith.

Mumm-Ra: obviously the best, and the Mummies Alive! get some credit for trying. Are there any good mummy-based superhero characters? N'kantu just kind of blandly exists, so I'm hoping for others.

Is Ozymandias from Marvel a mummy? He's sort of a stone crypt person. For that matter Apocalypse is sort of mummy-ish.

I wonder if those fans saw him in TOR, where it's revealed he's a scraggly bearded pale dork and you can loot his pants after you kill him in a boss fight. God drat did TOR suck.
