Not to mention the scene a few second later where he's holding the guy by the neck, and then even later, "tweaking" Capt. Needa's attitude. I wanted to be Vader's pal. Yeah--and you are totally correct about the morons in the Jedi councel.
These are the best and the brightest, and yet they have no idea that Palpatine was Sidious? Or that Anakin was banging Padme? They deserved being hunted down. I just wish they'd been tortured a little more. ;-)
I've said this before, I will say this again. Any planet that would elect a teenage girl as their queen deserves a little guidance. Dummies, pure and simple. The Sith were a good thing.
FEARED THE WORST?!!! YOU DUMB-**** A WHOLE PLANET WAS JUST DESTROYED AND BILLIONS OF PEOPLE KILLED. It don't get much worse than that, ***-wipe.
If you want to get a good laugh, get the DVD of "A New Hope" with Lucas's commentary. Go to the scene where the rebel commander is running a briefing about how to destroy the Death Star. Now run the scene with Lucas's commentary playing over the dialog and look for Han Solo's reaction to the dribble that Lucas is spouting.
One of the other things I loved about Vader in the first trilogy was that he never rushed anywhere. Same measured tread, same implacable purpose. Seemed to have lost the impulsiveness and 'hot' anger of his youth, replaced it more with the will he shows after crawling up from the lava. He radiated overwhelming, but controlled power, demonstrating his devolpment as a Sith.My favorite scene in Jedi was his talk with Luke on Endor. You could sense his weariness, and his realization that after all the years, he didn't control the Dark Side, it was controlling him.
