September 29, 2004Star Wars Trilogy DVD ReviewThis was on Slashdot this morning and is quite good. It is a massive review of the new Star Wars dvds that just came out. Well worth a read if you are a Star Wars fan. I especially liked the section labeled Why Darth Vader Is The Hands-Down Most Fearsome Movie Villain of All Time:
He will walk straight into the sites of ferocious battles, just minutes after they've been settled. Be it Hoth or Princess Leia's ship, the guy is not afraid to get his hands dirty and bat clean-up.
He can wear a cape and still inspire fear and dread. He can alter a deal multiple times on Billy Dee Williams. He'll slice off his son's right arm, throw appliances at him, then watch him plummet down a giant hole, all while undiplomatically breaking some big family news. The guy will leap into a TIE fighter himself and enter the heat of interstellar battle, flanked by only a couple of pilots, who, as the records show, have an excellent chance of flying into each other. |
