[QUOTE=Dancin' Man]I thought it was lame how Palpatine seemed to randomly select the name Vader. I wish there was more reason behind the name.

'Tender - this is nothing like Agalloch. If that's what you expect, prepare to be very disappointed.[/QUOTE]
I will agree with the first thing you said there. I would have liked to know why he picked Vader, instead of just randomly saying it.

I just got back from a Big Pretty and the Red Rockets concert, and it was incredible. You guys should really check this band out.

I wish they had Vader playing in the background when the name was chosen. That would've added major cool factor in my mind. Imagine, an audio cameo.

That's a decent idea, but it wouldn't have fit the movie at all.

I think Anakin's transition to the dark side was overall just too short. I actually expected for it to happen earlier in the movie.

His mental breakdown happened slowly throughout the whole time.

Since we are on the subject of Star Wars, who else thought that General Grievous was a total badass? I sure did.

Bad[size=2]a[/size]ss?

He was the worst character in the whole freakin' movie, pal, and one of the worst movie characters of all time, period.

A hunched-over four-armed coughing droid with a Jamaican accent? So cool :rolleyes:

Am I the only one who thought that Samuel L. Jackson should have played a main villain?

Probably. I thought he just shouldn't have been there.

I meant the actual fall to the Dark Side, I was expecting him to fall earlier and have a longer tranistion.

EDIT: I thought Grevious was an absolute coward. Although I saw the Animated Clone Wars Pt. 1 yesterday and he was a little less cowarly than in the movie.

Am I the only one who thinks Samuel L. Jackson should never be in another movie?

Well I just thought that he looked cool when he whipped out four lightsabers, that's all.

Samuel L. Jackson would have made a cool bad guy, but I thought he did a decent job as Mace Windu.

He's a terrible actor, I don't know how he gets so many parts.

Guh?

You ever seen Pulp Fiction?

Name me one actor who could pull of Jules Winfield. I dare ya. I double-dog dare ya, muthafu[size=2]cka[/size].

I meant to mention that he should have stopped after Pulp Fiction, but I re-worded my sentence and left it out.

[QUOTE]He's a terrible actor.[/QUOTE]

C'mon, what about Stacks Edwards? He owned that role :cool:

He does make a few crummy movies (Changing Lanes comes immediately into mind, S.W.A.T and Deep Blue Sea are in there too) more watchable.

And I think he's much, much better than Denzel Washington

But that's just my opinion.

Never seen that one. Most of the movies I've seen him in, his performance is laughable.

In terms of acting skill, I would say that Samuel L. Jackson and Denzel Washington are about equal.

...how's it taste, mutha****a!!!!! :thumb:

Bah, what do you know. You probably like faggy actors anyway :angry:

And to Samuel L.'s credit, he hasn't starred in a movie nearly as atrocious as Remember The Titans.

[QUOTE=Illmatic]Bah, what do you know. You probably like faggy actors anyway :angry:[/QUOTE]
Deep Blue Sea was so amateur it was laughable. No one can redeem himself in my eyes after that. When he got eaten by the shark during his big lecture, it was extremely relivieng because I was cringing more with every line he said.

If you don't like Samuel L. Jackson, make sure to watch Deep Blue Sea ;)

What's Denzel Washington got to do with it?

Deep Blue Sea was still much, much better than Remember The Titans

You're kidding, right?

I didn't like either of those movies, actually. Deep Blue Sea was just all around lame and I've seen Remember the Titans too many times against my will. I've lost my liking for both of them.

Hell no.

Deep Blue Sea was a horrible movie, but as you said, it's laughable.

Remember The Titans was a horrible movie, but it's infuriating, patronizing sh[size=2]it[/size] with the most implausible football and non-football scenes in any serious sports movie.

Okay, but I thought John Q. was an extremely powerful movie. I've never been moved by anything from Samuel L. Also, Manchurian Candidate was a brilliant movie in my opinion.

Samuel L. Jackson in XXX: State of the Union

'nough said.

I think you're coming off a bit harsh on Remember the Titans. It's not that bad.

I never saw John Q.

The Manchurian Candidate was a really unnecessary remake...it was a dud IMO.

Training Day was good, but nothing Samuel L. couldn't do.

Malcolm X was good and I don't think Samuel L. could pull it off.

[QUOTE=Metal_Head]I think you're coming off a bit harsh on Remember the Titans. It's not that bad.[/QUOTE]

Yes it is.

Are you kidding me? Samuel couldn't pull of Training Day if his life depended on it. That was a great, believable performance. Nothing Samuel L. does is believable to me.

So you're saying Samuel L. couldn't play a corrupt cop living on the edge?

Hah.

It would be like Pacino doing a De Niro role: He'd do it well in a different way.

Not with that much charisma, realism, and power, no.

He'd still do it well.

On the flip side, no way does Denzel pull off Jules in Pulp Fiction.

Why don't we start talking about better actors now?

In my mind, they're different types of actors....how did the comparison come up anyway?
