Vader in Rogue One

Except when they need to eventually need to, yeah. 👆

Yup. It's one of those that are kinda 'yaayyy' when you see them. And then when you think about it, it's kinda dumb. Why?

It was allright... but on a second and third viewing it's a little thrown in there. And yeah: Vader can Force grab laser guns, Force throw people to the ceiling but he cannot use the Force to pul the disc from a soldier's hand as he did with Solo's gun in ESB? He's not very smart.

The way i see it is that he gets stronger as time goes on . I think he was still suffering from being burned in roguh one.

Based on ?

It's not really that complicated. It's just one of those stupid movie moments where someone didn't do something they should/could have because it would have ruined the plot. Obviously Vader wasn't going to get the plans because it wouldn't fit with the story. But it's stupid because he should have been able to

So we look at his failure. Details matter not excuses.

Just sayin

Thats a good point plus vader getting his hands on the plans means no hope for rebellion and luke does not get to blow up the death star in ANH
its simple

His failure led to the start of ANH. He wasn't up against overwhelming odds either. He was up against scared pansies.

We can just go with the fact that Legends did the whole DS plans thing much better. 🙂

Did it?

It did yes, instead of the plans being in a single location, it was split into pieces in several locations which was then transmitted to Polis Massa and the Tantive IV, which then a copy of the plans they had was transmitted to the Tantive IV while 501st had secured the original plans, an actual transmission mind you, not some dumb hard physical data piece. Which then the whole opening scene happened with ANH.

There were many different versions of how it happened in the EU. It was an absolute mess.

I only recall the one, but better than having all of your eggs in one basket and having the advantage, only for it to be taken away anyhow. At least before, the plans were broken up and sent out separate and different locations before coming together, so it'd be rather difficult to get.

Vader's scene still cool though.

"Don't act so surprised, your highness; you weren't on any mercy mission this time. Several transmission were beamed to this ship by rebel spies. I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you."

YouTube video

Remember when it was that simple? When it seemed like Vader was some clever enforcer who knew how to suss out a problem? And how the contemptuous familiarity between Vader and Leia made it seem like they've met before and had been playing this game a while, but this time he finally caught her red-handed?

Nah f*ck that! We need an entire, over-complicated movie about this!

Oh I am sure we will at some point....many many such movies actually.

😎

We're gonna get an entire Forest Whitaker spin-off. And an Andor spin off. And... huh. I've already forgotten all the other new characters in the film. I'm not even 100% sure his name is Andor.

F*ck I'm already fatigued from these things.

Don't watch the movies then?

That is good point. But still, I agree with Lucien. For some reason they find it necessary to continuously fiddle with the stories we know. Instead of working on NEW movies, NEW content, NEW adventures.

That is what SW once was: NEW, GROUNDBREAKING... It's not been that way since ROTJ.
