Yeah, 8:30 AM - Wake Up, Have Breakfast with Padme, Cuddle and Argue Over Who Loves Each Other The Most. 1:30 PM - Mess Around With R2 6:30 PM - DEAR GOD, I'M KNEE DEEP IN MURDERED YOUNGLINGS. lol. They had *three* movies to tell this story and this is what they come up with. The prequels biggest sin actually is just the general tone I think. None of it works as a "drama", from the very get go it feels like a cartoon and that tone continues through all three movies. Never once is there a character that feels like a remotely real human being, it's all just a live action cartoon with 2 dimensonal characters that have zero personality. To counter that, the CGI characters are all bufoons with "personality" turned up to 11. So you have human characters with no personality and cartoon CG characters that are annoying or silly all constantly. It's a terrible mix, you can't take the prequels seriously. I didn't like everything in The Last Jedi but simple things like Luke pausing to say "Where's Han?" and how that scene is acted/shot feels 100000x more real. When Luke sees Leia and she says "I changed my hair" and it makes Luke smirk, real people actually talk and joke like that, prequels had none of that. When Rey says "You had father! Who gave a damn about you!", again that works. There's some actual human emotion behind that. Star Wars is general is really reliant on the charisma of Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, and even Mark Hamil. Remove that and you got problems. |
In the moments before he finally turns to the dark side, he contributed to a jedi master's death by not striking down that sith. That broke the camel's back so to speak. He sides with the sith to save his wife and he goes all in. So yes, it makes sense how he was killing jedi kids not that long after. Again he killed a whole village of sand people including the kids, women, and old people over his mom's death. He was being groomed to fall to the dark side by a sith lord since he was a kid. Of course, he was gonna flip out worse when his wife's life was on the line. it wasn't something that happen in a span of a few hours.
