This is more to do with the pedantic nitpicking of anything non-OT, epidemic among the crustier members of the SW community, pally.
I did.
But you rather stuck your foot in it by completely missing my point here. Not that I didn't expect it though, I imagine at the first mention of "EU" the #triggering occurs and you mash the keyboard in automatic.
However, to avoid repeating myself ad nauseam, how about you give reading it another go.
Right, so what your saying is that if Vader had diced up the rebels with a pair of stormtroopers at his back, the scene would be A'OK?
Forgive me if I fail to see what use they could have been.
The opening to Revenge of the Sith in which the character of Anakin is established, quite, in which he (almost) single-handedly boards an enemy cruiser, rescues the Chancellor then lands the thing on the planet's surface. Seemed like a pretty hands on guy to me...
Don't pretend you don't find it endearing.
He has enough to do all the aforementioned bar gripping the Falcon, in regards to which I supposed he can be let off on. But he could have gotten their a little faster don't you think man?
His end goal was to put Luke into a carbonite pit and mail him to the Emperor, none of additional fluff was necessary to achieve that, rather he should have just ambushed the f*cker and tossed him in the pit. But I agree, it was instead drawn out in this manner for the purpose of generating effect for the viewer, just like it was in Rogue One.
I disagree. The purpose of the scene was to demonstrate the menace of Vader and contrast that against the hope represented by Leia, and it did that, in rather a blunt way but an effective way nonetheless, and, in my opinion, provided both an effective segway into ANH and a suitable dramatic send-off to a climatic third act.
I couldn't help but chuckle here given most of your points thus far have revolved around the movies failing to rhyme.
That's not what I'm trying to do at all dear, rather I'm attempting to highlight how you are nitpicking - these elements didn't detract from the OT and they don't detract from Rogue One either. Vader stands stood in the dark corner of the room in ESB to look cool and generate an atmosphere, nothing more, Vader never ran in the OT because he'd look dumb doing it, nothing more, Vader didn't use TK when he really should of in the OT because plot, and who really cares? Not a viewer whose sufficiently engaged in the scene to not bother sparing the mental energy picking apart the problems in a movie about space wizards.
See above. And to add, Vader is a mean and violent guy yeah, welcome to 1977?

Yeah I don't care to respond to any of that. The kid's talking like a shithead tryhard, and I don't want to just repeat myself over and over again.

It was also cool when Maul got cut in half by a padawan. And when he begged Sidious for mercy. Oh, and when he got thrown off a cliff by Kanan. And there's also that time he was killed by Kenobi in less than 3 seconds. I just can't decide which one was my favorite

Now it's my turn. I love that despite falling hundreds of feet and being cut in half he lived. I loved that the next time he came into direct conflict with Sidious he wasn't intimidated at all. I loved that he blinded Kanan. I loved that he died as a true Sith wallowing in his own lust for vengeance and selfishness.
Why stop there. I love when Anakin got all misty eyed when his whore mother was killed. I loved when Kenobi beat him and he laid there screaming I Hate you like a big baby. I loved when his whore wife died and that's the whole reason for him becoming a Sith. I loved when Kanan knocked him on his ass with a force push. I loved when Hera out schooled in as a pilot. I loved when Tano ****ed his helmet up. I loved when Palpatine lied to him and told him that Anakin killed her. I also loved when Luke absolutely crushed him in combat in Rotj. I loved when he pussed out on the dark side at the end revealing himself just to be a pretender Sith.
Maul died a true Sith whereas Vader died a traitor to the Sith.
Wrong, Maul died a pathetic loser. Vader died a hero, killing the most powerful Sith Lord in history and saving his son. I wouldn't expect you to understand that though

Maul died a true Sith whereas Vader died a traitor to the Sith. He jumped ship and was mentally weak. His son brought him back. The second time in his life he abandoned his code. Maul died a warrior in combat Vader died a traitor who attacked an old man when his back was turned while torturing Vader's son Luke.
