See…that's the thing, the only thing I that was a little weird is that I know the actor is dead. I didn't see anything wrong with it at all. I honestly thought it was fantastic, as a stand-in probably would have pulled me out of it in a way that stand-ins for other characters didn't, just because his features are so…
It's not the emotion that's the problem, though, it's letting that emotion drive you, which is Anakin's big issue. Obi-Wan is pretty grumpy, but when decision time comes around he's typically pretty cool to the point of being cold. Of course, that all varies. Clone Wars has very inconsistent writing. Rebels does…
The memory tends to add a dramatic pause before 'disturbing' but watch it again. He leans in with this great conversational body language and gives the line very casually. He's just mocking the guy.
The trick is that he specifically states that the Emperor has dissolved the "Imperial Senate" right after an officer says that the Rebellion is gaining sympathy there. Of this he says "The last vestiges of the Old Republic have been swept away" but the relationship between the Imperial Senate and the Old Republic is…
Yeah, but also that the Emperor himself was responsible for forming the Alliance, which is eye-rollingly bad. It turns his one-off moment of overconfidence in RotJ into a recurring character flaw, and that just doesn't fit with how perfectly all his other plans went off.
Weird. I might have mentally merged your post with another, because you're clearly being sarcastic and I responded as though you were serious. Sorry for the confusion!
I went in expecting Tarkin to be awful, and thought he was great instead.
I figured from the scene in ANH where she grabs Han's blaster and mows down Stormtroopers showed she's been plenty hands-on for some time now. Besides, ANH essentially says her ship was at the battle and had the plans beamed to it, so having it not be there would have been weirder.
Mon Mothma had already been recast, essentially. She was cast for Revenge of the Sith, but her scenes were cut. She's such a dead ringer, they went with it.
"Some day you're gonna be wrong, I just hope I'm there to see it."
Vader said he summoned Krennic. I thought he did, at least, because I was wondering who in their right mind goes to Vader for help and isn't already Tarkin himself, but then Vader seems to say that he summoned Krennic to re-assign him to rooting out the intelligence leaks.
It was "Forced"
I'm not following the logic of never being allowed to kill off all your characters if you can't do it better than Saving Private Ryan.
The place where the cowl meets his chestplate didn't fit right. That was bothering me too. Like the cowl was slightly too big, so there was a gap. I couldn't stop staring at it in his casual scenes because it was distracting.
Dude, some guy starts mocking his supposed magical powers so he uses his quite real magical powers to choke him and then says "I find your lack of faith disturbing" in the most casual offhand way ever. It is absolutely a quip, gets laughs from audiences, and no amount of nostalgic retro-badass vision will change the…
I feel like it was used at the end of AOTC to point out to anyone too slow to follow that the Republic and the Empire are the same political entity. That actually used to be a common question about the original trilogy "How did the Empire conquer the Republic?" because for the longest time the answer "It didn't, the…
He never saw the tape, otherwise he'd have just pulled it away with the Force like he did all the trooper's blasters. He was trying to stop the Corvette from launching, not chasing the plans themselves. He probably thought the plans were already on it.
Why is this so confusing to people? In Rogue One he knows the plans are on the ship and can't have gone anywhere else yet, so he needs to work as quickly as possible to stop them from leaving…hence full-speed murder.
I think he sounds a bit off in both, but not enough to bother me. He also sounds really different in the insert scenes in the special edition blu rays. I assume it's age, but also wouldn't put it past Lucas having lost the original mix settings for his voice.
