  1. In Topic: Emergency Powers to Palpatine

    I still think by far the dumbest part of Ep. II is the idea that the Senate would rather make Palpatine an Emperor right off the bat, than approve the damn clone army. Yes of course this is incredibly believable if you think that count Dooku is right and Palpatine is controlling the entire senate, sure of course. But come on, if palpatine was using so much power wouldn't the jedi feel it? The force now seems to have an on / off switch, the Jedi can't use the force any more, so i guess the sith must have found the damn switch. Yoda states in the scene with Samuel L. Jackson (never can remember his jedi name) that their ability to use the force has diminished. Then how can Yoda lift a 4 ton piece of metal, and do all the other things? I mean, if the force is some cell parasite of some kind, how can you stop having it, you can't, did they somehow dissapear. If Lucas had left the Force as a mystical thing, then you could explain it, but with the med. explanation, it's just toooooo horrible. Lucas keeps messing up and trying to fix it by putting things in that are considered cool, like the yoda fight sequence, but these things do wonders to mess up the saga.

    I think what everybody is missing here is that Lucas is simply pissy about the fact that many authors out there who have contributed wonderfully to the SW universe (Timothy Zahn and Barbera Hambley, to name a few) have proven to be far better writers than he himself ever did. Which is ironic, considering that each author had to sign an agreement to stick close to the stringent guidelines that GL himself set up concerning SW. The last two prequels are, in fact, a really sad attempt to compete with the actual talent that is out there. One more thing; SW is no longer really "his." It is ours: yours, mine, everybody's. He gave those exclusive rights up long ago when he agreed to have others expand upon his universe. And they have done a far better job than he could have ever hoped to do. So, in effect, he has not really trashed and bastardized in the worst way, his story; he has trashed all of ours. :angry: :angry: :angry:
