Lightsabers in trouble

[Darth Tepes]

Ok, now this would make sense since a synth crystal of a DS adept would have been forged by a malicious will. But simultaneously Luke's green crystal was synth as well, and then later in the comics he had a shoto with a red crystal.
You can sit with me.
I think the biggest reason why Disney gets thrown under the bus is because the timing of their acquisition of Lucasfilm coincides with the Star Wars purge and the subsequent age of suck. NTM, Disney has a long tenure of being associated with magic, and that is exactly the way the new canon is being sold: "We can't come up with a good plot or explanation of a plot device, so we're just going to label it as space magic."

For me, the more Mysticism the better, but I can see why their "Its magic" explanation would be irksome.  Indeed it does mesh with the mess of the lore they have made.  But, like I said, the Lore Decisions are being made by people that were making them 20 years ago.  They just can do what they want now.

Fortunately my Sith Lord is +20 doesn't-give-a-#@%& and casts middle finger of disapproval.

<cringe> Quoting TLJ? How desperate are you?

Desperate? No. It just so happened that there was a quote from a SW movie that fit exactly what needed to be said, so I used it. I could've just as easily said "That is the most inaccurate statement I have ever read".

I wouldn't mind the "SPACE MAGIC!!!!" thing if it was used OCCASIONALLY, but they're playing that card a bit too often, IMO.

It also so happens to be from the worst and most pretentious SW movie to have ever been released. Why else do you think they had to use that awful line twice? But then I wouldn't expect you to understand why there is no right or wrong.

Its amazing how in three sentences I can both agree and disagree with you.

I'm good like that.

I do have to agree that the choreography in the throne room was horrible, but what bugged me most was that it looked like they plunked the chair down by the blue screen(or whatever colour they were using) and forgot to put in the digital walls. The whole thing was just annoying to look at and I would say it took me out of the moment but I found it hard to get into the moment with either of the new movies.

I may be mistaken, but I think i saw some behind the scenes footage that showed that being a practical set with no green/blue screen. I agree that whatever they did still looked super fake and dumb.

It was using that solid red background...it really made the scene look fake

I thought the red were giant curtains, because after the fight there were huge windows. Only saw twice and really wasn't paying any attention.

They were... Rey burned them when she threw one of the Guards burning weapons into them.  Should have not been a solid color though.  Some black or gold or purple would have fit and broken up the blandness
