What do you think about Palpatine's shapeshift?

Thanks for the Han Solo info!

Question: Why does using Force Lightning deform and age Palpatine?

Canyarion · 05-31-2005, 04:55 PM

Yes, you asked that and I anwered, now I want response! Please understand, people.

I thought that Episode III was really good overall. I think that it tied in very well to ANH, but I do agree with Link1130 in that they should have split this one up and showed more of Anakin as Darth Vader. I also thought that Anakin kneeled down before Palpatine way too quickly, even as it was happening....I was just like...wait...just a second ago you were against him..and now you're kneeling to him. Too bad he didn't see Palpatine battaling with Mace Windu, with lightsaber, because when he came onto the scene, Windu had Palpatine cornered, making him seem weak..and in trouble..and making Windu seem like the bad guy.

Also, I thought that the part where Palpatine put on that Act 66...well I know that's not the correct name, but when he put that into effect..it was really...REALLY emotional. It was really awful seeing all of the Jedi go down like that, and whoever mentioned John Williams going overboard was right, because without that music the effect would not have been as strong. And then..the younglings...even I said...."oh my god, the children?" I was really shocked..and that just showed how dark Anakin had become. It was sad and very powerful. It was weird when only Yoda and Obi-Wan were the only two Jedi left...even though that's how it always was in IV - VI..I just wasn't used to there only being two Jedi. Revenge of the Sith really put into perspective what the true situation in IV - VI was. When I watch the original trilogy from now on, I will see how great the conflict truly is, and I know that the second Death Star being blown up will be even more powerful, and when Darth Vader leaves the dark side in the end. I was very pleased with Revenge of the Sith.

I'm probably wrong but I thought it happened because Windu reflected the lightning off of his lightsaber.

I'll say it again: I thought he lost his 'faked shape'. The ugly man was his true shape (as you could already see in ep. 1 and 2). Palpatine was just some mask thingy.

Found a humourous cartoon.
Anakin Loves Padme

EDIT: Found another sweet one, rather long though.

Anyway, it seems that my theory wasn't true.

Other pointed to the fact that Sidious isn't as ugly in ep1&2.

I think it's one of those plastic ones that stay in all that well.

Though I do find it odd that two of summer's biggest movies stars heroes who witness the death or are around the death of their loved one. They go thrugh some suffering. And don black costumes to exact revenge and well scare the heck out of people.

*SPOILERS*

Finally saw the movie last night...

...and I really liked it. Ewan McGregor was REALLY good...his exchange with Anakin near the end of the movie was really well done.

'You were the CHOSEN one!!!'

His reaction to finding out that it was Anakin who betrayed the Jedi was pulled off amazingly well. Him saving Padme and fighting Anakin, it just sets up the original Obi Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader characters perfectly.

Sidius was super evil...and that's what I wanted. He seemed snake-like in persuading Anakin to join him...almost like he had him under a spell. I loved how he enjoyed watching Anakin kill Dooku...he was like "yes, kill this pathetic bastard and REPLACE HIM!"

The movie revolved around the transformation of Anakin Skywalker, probably the most crucial and important aspect of the Star Wars universe...so Episode III was an important one. And it ended being the best of the first 3 episodes by FAR...I would consider it the 3rd best of all of the 6...behind ESB and ANH.

Finally saw the movie in my school theatre this afternoon, free ticket couldn't pass it up.

Anyhow I thought the movie was decent, nothing realy special but not the biggest fan of the series in general.

I thought the action was great, but the pacing just felt weird and the movie was all over the place. The acting was ok but eh.

And honestly, I felt that Anakin was a friggin idiot in the movie, but thats just me.
