Vader! Oh the things they could do with him and modern movie magic

--- Quote from: Zappit on 15 Nov 2012, 18:40 ---They're planning on bringing Vader back. After getting roasted by Palpatine, will he be double robot? Retconning that whole force ghost of Anakin might be tricky, though.

I will admit, if they show Vader in more elaborate light saber fights, as a flash of black armor, that would make it worth it. Vader's supposed to be the biggest badass in the universe, but in the original trilogy, the costume limited movement too much, as his fighting was stiff. Those limitations don't really apply anymore with the technology available now.

--- End quote ---

Bear in mind as well that Darth Vader lost three limbs, was horribly burnt in the fight with Obi Wan and locked into what was essentially a life support machine, pumped up to the midiclorians with painkillers. I doubt anyone would be that great a fighter after that.

Actually, I think the RedLetterMedia review of Phantom Menace explains very well why the shitty old lightsaber duels were better in every possible way.

In fact, here is the proper video that includes the critique. The section on the lightsaber fights start at around the 6:00 mark

Well said, by George! 

Lupercal:
I love the RLM reviews. They may ruin the movie for your but by gum, they're pretty bang on.

"What's wrong with your faaace?"

As for Vader returning - yeah, although the first time he was left near a volcano, this time he was actually burnt in a pyre. There is probably no coming back as deadly force ash (unless you're going to be invisible and ground all flights off of Endor, lololol). Plus, a lot of his schematics must've been blown up in both Death Stars and the Super Star Destroyer (which, as it happens, also crashes into the Death Star).
He might be considered an "integral" part of the franchise, I also consider him a "dead" part of the franchise.

Every time I hear about a new Star Wars article something else crazy is happening. Welcome to the next three years, everyone.
