Lord Darth Hunter Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Lando does an incredible job of disguising himself as a guard, infiltrating Jabba's palace and getting free reign of the place. Then does absolutely nothing with it to the point where he's the one who had to be rescued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filthy Jawa Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Well, he is just a cape-wearing bureaucrat at that point. I know for my nine-year-old self seeing RotJ, Lando being with the Rebellion was a bit of a surprise. I think I'd forgotten that he'd helped them at the end of ESB. I mostly just remembered Chewie throttling him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tex Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Bad news for Boba Fett fans. After all the hype he's gonna die in the first half hour by accident. Then the sand thing that eats him is going to burp. I swear I'm not making this shit up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANA-kin Skywalker Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Lando does an incredible job of disguising himself as a guard, infiltrating Jabba's palace and getting free reign of the place. Then does absolutely nothing with it to the point where he's the one who had to be rescued....by a blind Han Solo who should have NO reason to like or trust Lando. As far as Han's concerned, one moment Lando sold his ass out and froze him like Walt Disney, then when he wakes up they are immediately BFFs again. I don't care how much time actually passed between the movies, because since Han was frozen, he and Lando were enemies what must've felt like only minutes ago to Han.

Driver Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 BUT CHEWIE EXPLAINED IT TO HIM Darth Vader takes his helmet off and it's not the guy who plays the body or the voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Darth Hunter Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Yes, when they stuck Han in the same cell as Chewbacca, Chewie was able to catch Han up on everything that happened after he was frozen.During their lighstaber duel Vader throws all kinds of objects at Luke and then shoves him out a window.

Lord Darth Hunter Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Unmasked Vader is being played by a 78-year-old man even though Anakin is supposed to be considerably younger than Obi Wan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filthy Jawa Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Now that I'm older, I really don't get why they did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyrian Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Maybe something to do with the bad feeling towards Prowse behind the scenes? I'm sure I read somewhere that they filmed the unmasking scene on the quiet with Prowse kept well away from the set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 I never had a problem with that. What struck me the most, being a comic book nerd, was that the actor was actually named Sebastion Shaw. So yeah, spoiler alert, Sebastion Shaw is Darth Vader and the Footlose guy will eventually be Sebastion Shaw in an X Men movie that takes place before any of us were born and will not be Darth Vader, six degrees be damned.

Filthy Jawa Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Sorry, I didn't mean I don't get why they didn't use Prowse...I assume they just thought he wasn't right (similarly to how they didn't use his voice). I don't get why they went with someone so old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Darth Hunter Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 I agree. I don't understand the thought process in casting someone who was not only way older than the man playing Obi Wan, but also almost twice as old as the man playing the Emperor!

Kyrian Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 My own personal take on it is that they went with the same reason why they had Palpatine look so ravaged - Vader under the mask looked like a little old man not only for the sympathy value for when his mask is taken off, but also to show just how damaging extended use of the dark side can be. Under the mask, he's grey, with deep circles round his eyes, with massive old scars, but also very old looking. It's a comment on what the dark side does to you just as much as the way Palpatine looks (and also the way Sate Pestage and the other advisors with the Emperor in ROTJ look as well, they're all old looking and with sunken eyes and gaunt features).

Filthy Jawa Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 I'll go with that. Good explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Darth Hunter Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I figured he was pale white with sunken eyes with deep circles because of the mask itself. His face hadn't seen sunlight since the scene in ROTS when he and Padme concurrently watch the sun set on Coruscant. Once he turned to the dark side he never saw the sun with his own eyes again. Padme saw daylight one more day and then she died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevil Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Anakin should look older than Obi-Wan. He's essentially been on a life support machine for twenty years and he's been corrupted by the dark side. Good casting choice IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Darth Hunter Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 The Emperor is a shriveled old man who needs a cane to walk around. THIS is the guy who reigns supreme in the galaxy and makes the scary, bad ass Vader kneel at his feet??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANA-kin Skywalker Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Well, back then Vader was just a suitably powerful villain. Lucas hadn't written Anakin to be space Jesus yet, so at that time you bought the fact the emperor was more powerful in the force. Now...well it literally feels like the stories were written backwards with continuity be damned. The way PT Anakin was written was way more powerful than OT Vader was.
