Palpatine bending Mace Windu's lightsaber blade - yes or no? (The movie)

So here is a gif and a video of the movie:

We see that the tip of Mace's blade wavers back and worth. Those on Sidious' side argue that because only the tip was moving, that would mean the blade was being contorted. Those on the opposing side have offered the counter-argument that Mace was actually moving his hand in a small circle, creating the illusion that the blade was wobbling. Personally, I don't see it no matter how hard I look, and I certainly don't see the fountain of the blade moving, only the tip.

To settle this once and for all, we'd need a scene-by-scene deconstruction of every pixel on-screen. I am not that good at editing, so I'd ask someone else to do it instead - to settle this hotly-debated topic for good.

That was more of a joke pointing out how idiotic this argument was, lmfao.

Seems it missed the mark for some people (i.e. you).

He's not. The fact you think he is shows how stupid this argument is, though.

That's what you're saying now. laughing out loud

And no, this thing was mentioned afterwards, as a response to you. You brought that up just to find a way to have Vitiate bend lightsaber blades like Palpatine did, because you were upset that Vitiate's Lightning wasn't as powerful. thumb up

My dude, you can go through every post I ever made, and I never once recognized Palpatine bending back a lightsaber as impressive.

Not even during a short phase. Not once. thumb up

The point of the Vitiate scene was to show how idiotic it was. LeGenD took my post and made it serious in an argument, twisting original intent.

Now quit the shit or I'll have to start handing out Ls.

So using idiotic evidence that doesn't actually show the same thing is supposed to show that a feat isn't impressive? lmfao

Take your L, please.

Was the same thing. Literal no distinction between what I showed and this bullshit in this thread.

Actually, one might actually say the lightsaber did bend vs Vitiate. Sidious? Lmfao nah.

Here's your first L:

I imagine I'll give you like ten more before you realize you're making a scene unprovoked.

Why was theri ever an argument here. The blade is clearly bent in the movie and this is explicitly backed up by the junior novelization

We were talking about the novel scene and not the film clip, you pillock. When people brought up the novel sequence where Palpatine bent Mace's blade, you panicked and tried to find a similar instance for Valk and you came out with that. laughing out loud There was nothing to do with the instance described in this thread.

I wasn't trying to make a scene, just reminiscing of another funny experience. Too bad you couldn't swallow your pride and got offended. So you're the one who caused the scene. smile
