Agree with you there. Luke in a cold sweat and hiding both physically and mentally while Vader monologues, then "If you will not turn to the Dark Side....then perhaps SHE WILL," Luke going rage-mode... Definitely the most intense part for me. The lighting, direction, and music all came together perfectly. |
I think a lot of people dismiss RoTJ due to Ewoks. They be like "I hate Ewoks, therefore it sucks". But it has so many wonderful, powerful moments like that final fight against Vader. The whole original trilogy are borderline magical in their pacing. Lucas may have been out of practice and shotty when it came to making the prequels (it had been about 20 years since he last directed a movie), but with the OT he was in his prime and he knew how time things just perfectly to give them the most dramatic effect possible. Where the Force Awakens there was so much hastiness, and chucking of information here and there and all over with no regard to their importance. It just lacked that beautiful timing.
| Soundwave said: The worst part of The Force Awakens is the one sequence that feels most reminscent of the prequels and would right at home in any of the prequels ... the Raathjar sequence or whatever it was with those CGI monsters .... ugh. Thankfully it was over in like 8 minutes and had Harrison Ford's steady hand to get us through it. Ford is FANTASTIC in The Force Awakens by the way. |
Eh, it's not CGI that is evil, Maz and Snoke were far more amazing than ANY of the shakey puppets they used. I just don't think CGI is good for the sets which was the prequels major problem, but for creatures, please do, even if it is just used in a hybrid manner to enhance the puppets Prometheus style.
