Thanks for that... if you scroll down the forum a little bit, one of the users has a VERY alluring avatar.


Oh... you meant look at the pictures of the duel between Anakin and Dooku?

[Chefelf]

The avatars on that forum are out of control! One of them was 196 x 260 pixels!

As for the duel: Great. A complete rehash (or prehash) of the duel in ROTJ. I should have known.

It's just so damn predictable. It looks exactly like RotJ. Why does Lucas insist on being an idiot? Please George, it could be done in so many other interesting ways. Bet you anything we'll get to hear another wookie Tarzan yell during the battle on Kashyyyk.

I like this idea of how Anakin starts to go down the darkside. Also, if you lighten your gamma you can see that both of dookus hands are cut off.

[Sagacity]

Great. Another "mirror". Somebody needs to break these mirrors; we'd all be better for it.

[Vwing]

I actually like it. It's not exactly like ROTJ, it's different angles, but it does parallel, which is something we all knew he was going to do anyway. And disregarding parallels, the shots themselves look cool. Remember, even though we're prequel bashers, we have to try to stay objective, and not just bash everything that has the Episode III name on it. The pictures look very good, and it looks like Lucas heeded people's complaints about ROTJ and made the space battle outside more of a battle and less of a congolmeration of lights.

On a sad note: If you're that interested in seeing these pics and this scene, the Videogame preview has been out, and it, as a preview, is better than the movie preview, which is sad. It has all that scene and other crap from the movie. Its available over there at star shit dot com

Which avatar is the "alluring" one? There are a couple that could be deemed "alluring".

I don't like the look of this "duel". It looks like a rehash of the quick, crappy duel from Episode 2 (remember how Anakin just stood there for a moment with his arm outstretched as if he were waiting for the lightsaber to come down on it?)

Lord Aquaman, how could yo come to that conclusion after seeing darkened pictures that are not in motion?

Some guy had an avatar with some very well endowed girl, just barely covering up her assets.


And...

Wow... I didn't realise that Dooku had both his hands cut off. As if Lucas wasn't rehashing enough.

Why does he always have characters getting their hands cut off in the prequels? I could handle Vader getting his hand cut off in Return of the Jedi because it nicely mirrored the duel in The Empire Strikes Back. But in the prequels, it's just getting too damn repetitive.

Why not have a character slash his lightsabre down low, taking his opponent by surprise, and taking both his legs out below the knees?

Just a thought.

That happens in the OBi wan and Anakin duel. O and by the way this scene isn't the defining moment where Anakin becomes Darth Vader, Anakin is still a jedi after this. The scene where he goes to the darkside is where Mace confronts Palpatine and he must choose who to help.

Odd...

Although I'm pleased to see that the below the knee hack will be incorporated into the film. That's something at least.

[Paladin]

Those screen shots aren't exactly exciting me... they really DO look like ROTJ. Especially with Palpatine sitting on the throne and watching the two battle their way to death.

Frankly, I don't think that Episode III is going to be all that entertaining. I hope it isn't that bad, because I intend to watch it all, and I don't want to leave the cinema prematurely.

Why does everyone have to have half their limbs hacked off in every duel, for God's sake? It's starting to sound like the Black Knight scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
