Dude, you complain about DE, Luke and Nihilus/Vitiate/Hord/Old Republic feats being ridiculous way more than me. AND that it breaks suspension of disbelief for a muggle to fight or beat a Force user. I was expecting you to wholeheartedly agree.The Force is cooler as more mystical and subtle than as FORCE SMASH ALL THE THINGS!
God, puke.
I do agree. I just find it ironic coming from you. But you probably mean you want the movie characters to be low key.
Originally posted by ares834See I disagree. In fact, I think Vaderhavin his potential cut actually contradict the OT what with Yoda's "luminous beings" speech and the fact that Jedi are "far more powerful" when they have no bodies at all.
I mean the narrative of the OT. The story was that Vader wanted Luke so they could overthrow the Emperor together. If Anakin didn't lose potential however, then he should either already be more powerful than Sidious by the OT (probable), or have enough confidence in himself to surpass Sidious all by himself in the next few years.
But yes in terms of actualized power there's no narrative issue with OT Vader being more powerful than ROTS Anakin.
