The lava spray is huge when that tower fell in, it was like a rain shower. If even one droplet hit you then your clothes would go up in flames--e.g. limbless Anakin-- Yet the two of them somehow evaded EVERY single droplet of molten rock that was flying down around them?
The force fields man, they showed that.
And Force fields or not, they should still have felt the heat all around them, including trying to run off that collapsed tower.
I also thought the videogame shit with Obi-Wan and Ani riding the robots over the lava was f*cking stupid.
It looked fake as hell, with them both standing rigidly on the platforms, especially Anakin. I bet Hayden thought he was just shooting a good old fight, and Lucas forgot to tell him that "Oh, by the way, you're hurtling along about five feet above the lava balancing on a droid no bigger than a manhole cover".
No emotion, or atmosphere, just stupid.
So my WTF moments would be the "Will to live" and "Super Mario Lava Land" bits.
My biggest wtf moment was when Anakin turned into Vader...wow..
Kidding 😛, my biggest wtf moment was why Anakin was so weak. He was a capable enough fighter, but he couldn't see for himself, right from wrong. Even tho, yeah, he wanted to save padme, he should have thought "What does killing younglings have to do with saving my wife", I was just so dissapointed in him. I was hoping his fall would've been more of a struggle, but he just let palpitine manipulate him without any second thoughts. It's just stupid of him.

It's James earl Jones fault for the No! thing. Poor bastard, he's usually good at what he does.
Actually, I think that is Lucas' fault. I think he wanted it to be sort of "strange" for numerous reasons. It paid homage to the style of some of the movies Lucas grew up with and it was intentional that Vader be awkward and imperfect in his voice because he had just been placed in the suit. I don't believe he would have mastery of the tone of his mechanical voice yet... especially when he is emotionally disturbed.
