Chefelf.com Night Life: Sieve Boy - Viewing Profile

I watched TPM last week and wanted to point out some Jedi Council foolishness that had not been covered previously, here is the script from the first Jedi Council scene:

QUI-GON: ...my only conclusion can be that it was a Sith Lord.

MACE WINDU: A Sith Lord?!?

KI-ADI: Impossible! The Sith have been extinct for a millenium.

YODA: The very Republic is threatened, if involved the Sith are.

MACE WINDU: I do not believe they could have returned without us knowing.

YODA: Hard to see, the dark side is. Discover who this assassin is, we must.

KI-ADI: I sense he will reveal himself again.

MACE WINDU: This attack was with purpose, that is clear, and I agree the Queen is the target.

YODA With this Naboo queen you must stay, Qui-Gon. Protect her.

MACE WINDU We will use all our resources here to unravel this mystery and discover the identity of your attacker... May the Force be with you.


So let's think about the reactions here... Mace flips out, Ki-Adi is in doubt, Yoda is fearful, Mace is arrogant, Yoda points out that Mace is an idiot, Ki-Adi = Captain Obvious. Then later on there's a scene once again with the Jedi Council in which Mace says this:

MACE WINDU Go with the Queen to Naboo and discover the identity of the dark warrior. That is the clue we need to unravel the mystery of the Sith.

So now it is the Sith? You don't know the assassin's identity and neither does anyone else on the Jedi Council, but there's a "mystery of the Sith" to unravel. We all know this script was terrible but using speculation and implication as a plot device in such a way is pretty shallow. Also Mace goes from wanting the Queen protected to wanting the Jedi to use her as bait it seems, or else how does he know that the assassin will be there or that their idetity would be discovered? Nonsensical George Lucas bullshit if you ask me.

I'm back again, kinda. I usually use this site as a reference in pointing out how crappy the Star Wars PT is, Chef Elf's "Reasons to hate Star Wars" are something I'm quite fond of and love to share with others. For whatever reason I've been on a Star Wars kick in 2012 so I've been lurking on this site often.

I hope GL reads this post, FU buddy! Keep putting out shit interations of your shit movies so I can be reminded of how much I hate them, TPM 3D flopped and I'm happy because of it.

Someone will probably shoot me for saying this but I'm pissed that Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles was cancelled. It was one of the most popular and profitable shows on TV. I thought the writing was very creative, even though much of it was spun far away from the original 2 movie storylines. Still it was incredibly entertaining AFAIC.

I haven't posted here for nearly two years, I lurk every now and then but I think I'll be jumping back into discussions more often now.

Understood, yet I view that as more of an excuse rather than a means of progression. Liberals are all for political and economic progression, are they not? Making attempts to find reason in not doing what you know could provide change is that which I define cowardice and ignorace. I'm not attempting to offend anyone, at the same time to sit on the sidelines and not at least support something which could better yourself and your life... I find to be hypocracy in anyone who labels themself as "liberal."
