grevious

Grievous was the living embodiment of George Lucas masturbating.

Seriously, apart from relieving Lucas' tension, Grievous was such a peripheral and inconsequential character.

I thought GG would have been a total badass but he came across as a kind of bumbling joke figure and didn't really act very evil at all.

in cartoons jedi run from him
#
in film mace says gg is a coward and he was running away from ob1

Grevious was too much of an idiot. And did they really need another droid-like guy? Droids are so annoying...

Remember that concept sketch of what he looked like before the droidification? If he stayed like that it would have been cool.

What episode three needed was a badass pirate!

He was cool in The Labrynth Of Evil novel and in the Clone Wars cartoons, and a total puss in Ep.3. Supposedly (as mentioned above) because of what Mace did to him at the end of the Clone Wars series.
I would have been fine with him being omitted and a little more screen time given to the Dooku duel, which was too quick and basically just tossed aside a relatively cool bad guy that had already been established in the previous movie.

gg wasnt running from obi, he was running from the army that obi brought with him. for the only non-force user to wield lightsabers and fairly well, i'm impressed he would take on a jedi alone when he had a squadran standing around. one think i dont get is why obi would jump into a bee hive alone like that, if all the droids would have opened fire, he would have been a gonner. gg was unique and cool even if you dont follow eu so you could understand who the hell this guy was.

Ya, I think he's more powerful in the Cartoon, but maybe he's weaker because Mace Windu did that force crush on greivous' chest, maybe that's why he was a little weaker.

Or maybe it's 'cause the cartoon is EU and not canon...

yeah good point . general grevious called him a bold one so ob1 probaly always did stuff like that

No, silly... Obi-Wan knew the droids wouldn't kill him because he had to survive because he's in Episode IV. Duh.

Obi Wan seemed to enjoy doing things that may not necessarily have been considered all that smart. Look at him when they get on Grevious' ship. Obi Wan says he senses a trap, Anakin asks what they should do and he gets this wicked grin on his face and says "Spring the Trap!"

GG was a war genius a "general" no doubt but generals follow orders too...anyways as far as voting on poll how can you not say GG was not cool the way he handles lightsabers......that was cool

WHY WAS HE COUGHING THEN?

And why did Windu say that Grevious is a coward and will keep running and hiding like he did in the cartoon.

use brain 🙂

It doesn't matter why he coughs, or why he's a coward...

yeah, and TOTALLY not overseen by Lucas.....and it DOESN'T make the connection between AoTC and RoTS.....nope....not one bit....cause it's EU which is translation for "We Hate". Love the logic 👆

It DOES connect AOTC and ROTS, but it's not in the film, therefore it is EU, therefore it is not canon.

Sorry... I just refuse to believe that one should have to watch a cartoon or read a book in order to understand a film. That's plain stupid.

The films are completely seperate from EU.

If grevous pulled the
stunts he did in the clone wars

he`d beat the crap out of
obi wan

if grevous pulled all of his sunts
in the clone wars cartoon he`d beat
the crap out of obi wan

I understand that, and yeah, the movies ARE separate from the Eu universe, but the EU universe sometimes complements them, adding where there should have been stuff in the movies. As for the "not needing to watch a cartoon or read a book in order to understand a film" thing, that's your opinion. I think i was 10 when i realized how movies were commercial crap that took a book, made a script out of it and either left out INCREDIBLY awesome or important parts of it, or got the story wrong, or changed stuff to make it more "appealing" to the targeted audience, etc. etc. If you enjoy reading as much as i do, you'll almost ALWAYS get a nasty churn in your stomach when you hear there's a movie being made after a book you like/love. However, this is SW....and therefore this whole thing may not apply seeing as how usually the movies are made by the books, but in this case it's the other way around.
