Iyo not mine. Vader in the end died a hero sohe was a misguided and used villain. He was someone you pitied since we see how utterly broken and used by his old master he truly was. Voldemort scared an entire world of fictional wizards who all had the same skill sets. How utterly amazing is that feat, truly. In Star Wars less than one percent have access to the force so it is easier to stand out with those capabilities.

At the end of the day the Sith Lords of the Ot would fear a confrontation with the darkest wizard of all time, Voldemort.

Ps. Your opinion is rather terrible tbh.

Oh looky you liked the first film better that wolves thought was trash so that supports my opinions vary stance.
Iyo not mine. Grindelwald will never have the impact nor even be considered the darkest wizard of his own franchise. You are free to enjoy the queer dark wizard but make no mistake he is the weakling Voldemort forces to tell him the location of the elder wand.

I thought they both were let downs not just the first one.

As I said you just did not care for the films but you are in the minority. Opinions varied and the films were a massive success. I proved my stance but in the end you did not care for the films which is fine. I loved the later films. The company made the right choice as a business to split the films.

No, I just gave you a verbal lashing. You took it like Snape took it from Voldemort.

It is. Fb was a train wreck and did not turn a profit. Your tantrums are childish. I enjoy your sobbing.

As far as movies alone go, HP > Star Wars. More mature themes, deeper characters. Original Trilogy was just a spark that started the fire, honestly it's hard to defend characters quality and plot maturity to HP, lol.

On the other hand, as far as their universes go, I much prefer SW due to insane scale and having basically everything possible, drama, comedy, mature, dark things, lighthearted comedy stuff, epic adventures, politics. SW expanded universe is greater to me since it has every shade possible, like an alternate unvierse literally.

Movies alone, yeah, HP trumps.

Hilarious thing was you had Star Wars fanboys arguing Star Wars was more adult than Potter. Idiots and deluded fanboys of the highest order. Bart you and I are objective and can be reasonable. It is ok for Potter to be more mature than Wars but the insecure manbabies cannot stand it and have to pout.

Potter won. Hands down.

No, it made him redeemable. He redeemed himself like a truly conflicted weak villain. There was nothing in Voldemort to redeem. He rejected his humanity entirely and was far more evil than lukewarm Vader.
Due to the time it came out but that does not make it better. The films pale in comparison acting wise to Potter. It is not even close. In the first film the acting is atrocious and while it gets better is nowhere close to Potter quality.
The emperor was just a guy who showed up at the end with no real backstory. You can pretend they delved inti him but they did not. A 2d guy.
No, it is not close and Potter is by far meant for an older audience than Star Wars and the 12 years Lucas designed it for.
Voldemort>Sidious or Vader. Not even close.

Ya know what other "Big Bad" has been "Redeemed" before?

....yep.

Thanos has layers but he still is a villain unlike Vader at his core. Vaser was manipulated by his old terribly postured master Sidious.

Keep to the topic.

Ok. For Old Vorty.... there is really only 1 thing that is MEMORABLE about him.....and that is this....

quanchi112 Disney

You did not care for the dark wizard that is fine. I think he is truly the greatest dark wizard of all time. None of the original Star Wars villains did anything for me personally. Weak, effeminate villains.

Volde also rode around on a guys back and got blowed up when he TRIED to kill a baby.

Lol!

Funny stuff.

Context. The idea he murdered a babys parents and her death created a magical protection is one great explanation provided and spawned one of the greatest movie franchises of all time. A deep series in which we saw kids grow into their roles before our very eyes. A truly evil villain whose explanation makes complete sense as to why he is so friendless and despicable. Great time to be alive as a nerd.

Overly Simplyfied and Childish Concepts handled quickly and messily.

Movies are made SOLELY for Kids.

Nah, that was Star Wars though. Silly when you watch them now to think they were for a mature audience. Just kid films but fantasy wise touched something in that time frame that still lives on due to Disney.

Nah, you can continue to ignore the ratings, the creators own statements but this is the very reason you will not only fail here but every aspect of your life your emotions. If you enjoy Star Wars better that is fine but to lie and pretend Star Wars for a more mature audience than Harry Potter you are just being an idiot.
