Om at hade Star Wars

Nu har jeg priset Star Wars flere gange herinde, tiden er vist komme til at belyse hvorfor så mange hader Star Wars. Der er en masse grunde her, som er underholdende at læse uanset om du er fan eller ej.

Er du ikke fan kan du sidde og nikke og le for dig selv. Er du fan kan du finde hullerne i argumenterne, dem er der nemlig også en del af.

Men, indrømmet, der er en del sjove sandheder. Lad os snuppe én fra hver film:

Fra Episode 1
“You’ll never get me onto a starship!”
C-3P0 says this during the movie. You see, it’s funny because we know that he will spend a great deal of time on a starship during the later trilogy. Oh Lucas you scamp. The joke of making lame jokes about things that we know are going to happen just never gets old. Bravo!

Fra episode 2
Representative Jar Jar Binks
Apparently the reason that this Galactic Republic has stood for 1,000 years is because of the great rules they have in place. One such rule is that if you don’t feel like going to the Senate you can just have your completely unqualified fool of a friend just fill in for you and decide the fate of the entire Galaxy.

Fra Episode 3
1.) Anakin tells Padmé: “You… are so… beautiful.”
Cringe Factor: 5 out of 10

2.) Padme responds with: “It’s only because I’m so in love.”
Cringe Factor: 7 out of 10

3.) Anakin laughs and says, “No, it’s because I’m so in love with you.”
Cringe Factor: 5 out of 10

4.) Padme (joking): “So love has blinded you?”
Cringe Factor: 7 out of 10

5.) Anakin (laughing): “Well that’s not exactly what I meant.”
Cringe Factor: 6 out of 10
Confusion Factor: 8 out of 10

6.) Padme: “It’s probably true.”
Cringe Factor: 4 out of 10
Confusion Factor: 10 out of 10

Fra Episode 4
Han Solo Greedo shoots First At the Same Time
I know, the Greedo thing has been done to death, but the latest development in Greedo’s death scene complicates the debate enough that it warrants further discussion. It is only through a frame-by-frame viewing that you can truly figure out what is going on but it appears that both Solo and Greedo are shooting at the exact same time, at least too close together for either shot to be in reaction to the other.

Fra Episode 5
[..] EMPEROR PALPATINE:We have a new enemy, the young rebel who destroyed the death star. I have no doubt this boy is the offspring of Anakin Skywalker.

DARTH VADER:How is that possible?

“How is that possible?” How is that possible? We are told in the opening scroll and throughout the entire movie that it is a relentless pursuit of Luke Skywalker that is driving Vader. Vader even says: “That is the system. And I’m sure Skywalker is with them.” If he doesn’t think that Luke is his son then who does he think Luke is? Does Vader remember his original name? Is he just really dumb? Why would he be in pursuit of Luke Skywalker if he thought that the surname they share was just a funny coincidence?

Episode 6
Boba Fonzarelli
In an unending effort to make Boba Fett seem cooler than he is, Lucasfilm chose to add a scene to Return of the Jedi where Boba Fett is seen flirting with the female backup singers of Max Rebo’s band. He gently tickles one of their chins before making his way over to help Jabba deal with Boushh (Princess Leia in disguise). Here’s a thought. If they wanted Boba Fett to be more kickass, instead of adding a scene to show him being playful with some ladies, how about removing the scene where he dies because a blind Han Solo accidentally bumped into him?

Jeg morede mig, og der er masser af flere hvor de kommer fra. God fornøjelse.
