| StarOcean said: No way Revenge of the Sith is less than TFA. I call bullshit on that. And same goes for RotJ over RotS |
RoTS still has a lot of clunk dialogue and terrible acting ... case in point it's the only Star Wars movie that somehow manages to embarass Darth Vader.
The whole Anakin Skywalker "turn to the Dark Side" is pretty fucking stupid and weak dramatically too because it's hillariously rushed (largely because Lucas so poorly wrote the previous two films):
Anakin's "Bad Day"
8 AM - Good Guy
11 AM - Good Guy
2:30 PM - Good Guy, feeling good after lunch
4:30 PM - Uh oh, Palpatinez teh Sith Lord!
6:30 PM - AW FUCK IT! GUESS IMMA GONNA HAVE TO KILL A BUNCH OF KIDS NOW
lol, c'mon Lucas.
Jedi is underrated in many ways IMO, the Emperor/Vader/Luke scenes are better than anything else in the Star Wars saga and yes that includes even the best scenes from Empire.
"Sister ... so you have a twin sister ..." is the most delciously evil line in all the Star Wars movies, you can almost see Vader smile underneath his mask and the Emperor is such a wonderful, unnerving embodiment of the Dark Side. Think about what they did in ROTJ for a second ... they create a character who instantly has street cred as someone waaaaay more evil than even Darth Vader. None of the new Star Wars movies (not even TFA or Rogue One) can come close to claiming anything like that.
