^I can buy that reasoning. I can see Luke holding onto the force as a burden of sorts to try to prevent the Sith again and then like you said, there's another disturbance in the force.
Definitely. Too much emphasis on showing off all of the bells and whistles just took away from the character focus that made the OT classic.
that is the reason the prequels were bad though, too much effort was spent on showing off the new tech that they didnt put any effort into developing likeable multidimentional characters or coherent story[thread="512239"] [/thread]
I actually like the space battle at the beginning of ROTS. But I do understand that part of the reason for that was so he could show off/push the technology. In the grand scheme of things, people needed to see that in order to appreciate these simpler ones.
like you spend millions of hours behind computers creating these space battles but you cant take the 1-2 hours at the writers desk to think of a better way for anakin to seduce padme other than talking about sand in a monotone voice?
in the OG movies the lightsaber battles had meaning behind them, every duel felt like the fate of the universe depended on who came out on top. prequel lightsaber battles other than darth maul are all meaningless showmanship, just a people that no one cares about fighting for a cause no one actually understands.
Definitely. Too much emphasis on showing off all of the bells and whistles just took away from the character focus that made the OT classic.
