That Happy song destroyed his career, and for good reason.

More like it revived his career, along with Get Lucky and Blurred Lines in 2013. Before that, his last hit single was in 2006 (Money Maker for Ludacris). He's helped produced a few smaller hits after 2013, too, and was a judge on The Voice for a while (isn't he still one? Lol)

He was never a huge superstar, anyway. Sure, he was more out there than most producers and songwriters, but he's always mainly worked behind-the-scenes.

It's APE juice

Bland boost to win gameplay
Bastardized "classic Sonic" gameplay

It's a surprise that Generations was ever well-received

His choice. Fuck the corporate machine and all, but rules are rules

They're still milking this crappy old game?

"Zack Snyder is a good director"

Counterpoint: *points to BvS*

Can you blame WB for not trusting him with Justice League? Like, the Snyder cut is literally 4 fucking hours lol you can't release that in theaters

wat do

Shitty films?

Flopic

She has to ask me.

His real name is Clarence

Too focused on topping MCU to make good films?

This guy's a gangster?

TC had to bump this because no one cared lol

So it flopped twice as a movie and now it's flopping as a game? Kek

Unfunny comic relief vs. Boring Mary Sue

On one hand, Jar Jar is the pointless character

On the other hand, we're basically only subjected to him for one movie. Rey is shoved down our throats for three particularly unnecessary movies

As awful as Jar Jar is, the sequel trilogy is more unnecessary than the prequels

Rey is a great character.

No

If so powerful you are, why leave

Oh, that song. I've heard it here and there, but never knew who sung it, or cared.

I don't think that's what most people remember Blurred Lines for.

bruh the song sounds exactly like marvin gaye got to give it up lol people pointed it out and marvin gaye family sued then robin thicke and Pharrell lost XD fucking rekt

Yoda!

remember when he and robin thicke had to pay marvin gaye family millions for ripping off one of marvin gaye songs on blurred lines

did he settle the lawsuit with chad hugo (the other member of the neptunes) yet

Killed three Jedi who came to arrest him
Has full control of the courts
Can literally shoot lightning out of his hands
Both Anakin and Mace know he's guilty af

"He needs to stand trial" LOL

He could help the rebels just fine while still hiding. Or did you miss the part of the very first ever Star Wars movie being about the Empire trying find the "hidden rebel base"?

Which they did.

As mentioned, there was no evidence Obi-Wan had any trouble providing for himself.

Bro was literally wearing the same clothes for decades LOL

And if Obi-Wan needed child support - well, as already mentioned several times, the Rebellion exists; they would happily pay Obi-Wan more than enough to look after Luke in return for him helping them.

Then they'd know where he was and could be interrogated into spilling the beans

Which alone should have immediately disqualified them from being his guardians.

Not Kenobi's fault.

And yet even criminals like Cassian Andor and Han Solo didn't seem to have any difficulty moving around in public.

Han literally got his ass caught and turned into carbonite LOL

He sits on Dagobah and stays there until he dies.

Only place he could hide his tremendous presence.

When Luke comes along, he refuses to train him at first, concluding he is too old and too dangerous due to his anger

Only because Luke was being a brat.

And Obi-Wan is no different. After Luke comes across him by happenstance, he trains him for a few days, then fucking dies, with his grand contributions to the rebel cause being one disabled tractor beam and an untrained Force-sensitive recruit.

If he trained Luke earlier, then the Empire would have sensed Luke on Tatooine.

I will, however, freely admit that I have not watched the prequels

Clearly.

Cool. So what's your explanation for why he couldn't be chilling on Dantooine again?

The rebel base there was literally evacuated because they were found out.

Nice fanon

It's canon.

Dantooine

Discovered and evacuated

Alderaan

Nuked

You don't need to argue this point any further, you've already proven I'm right.

"I don't know how human relationships work" is all you had to say.

The characters and story prove you wrong. "Waah waah the prequels suck" Cope.

Bro posted six times in a row lol

not as bad as what Luke went through.

"Not as bad" he said, dismissing what it's like to watch your surrogate family die.

Just admit you're wrong and call it a day. No need to embarrass yourself with all these obsessive walls of text.

so suggesting he was "close" to those children is more than a bit of a stretch.

He was heartbroken to find them dead, hence choking when he described it to Padme so yes he was attached to those kids.

He had known Padme for 13 years and risked his life protecting her, so she was someone who mattered to him. Next.

There were, based on AotC, dozens if not hundreds of Jedi in the order; based on sheer numbers, it's unlikely that Obi-Wan was particularly close to most of them.

But Luke was ''close'' to most people on the resistance lol cap

They were literally leading proto-stormtroopers, dude.

They weren't stormtroopers.

Hence why I say, there were no "good guys" or "bad guys" in that war

The Jedi were the good guys. Stay in denial.

He fought Dooku alongside Anakin

"I didn't watch the movie" is all you had to say.

I neither know nor care about any EU rematches

Says the guy who brought up Rogue One, an Elseworlds spinoff.

EU's pretty much fair game by your book.

Calling General Helicopter "as dangerous as a Sith" (i.e. the guys who can see the future and shoot lighting from their hands)

Anakin and Maul can shoot lightning? Maul can see into the future? LOL

nearly killed fighting Darth Vader

Vader was never trying to kill him, next.

none of Obi-Wan's other brushes with danger in the PT so much as injure him.

"Luke's life is harder because he's an idiot who gets himself hurt more often" XD

they were summoned because Jedi were respected as fair mediators and diplomats

They're summoned so they can intimate the opposing party into a truce. "Diplomats were skilled negotiators and wore their lightsaber as a reminder of their strength and authority", in other words, "stop fighting or else I'm gonna lightsaber your ass" LOL they wouldn't bring their lightsabers if they weren't gonna use them

Although the movie doesn't specify, I'm 99% certain that Obi-Wan and Anakin were not sent out for pest control and that this event was ancillary to whatever else it was they were doing at the time.

Something else that was dangerous, of course. You don't just end up in a nest of bloodthirsty animals

Obi-Wan disagrees.

More shit that didn't happen. Keep lying your ass off.

Yeah, I give old man vibes because I happen to be one.

Not surprised.

*EVERYONE* who works for the rebellion is a wanted man by definition

Bail wasn't yet a wanted man and he was in the rebellion. You're not wanted if your involvement is secret.

That's the argument you implied from your reply.

No, you just have bad comprehension skills. Case in point

you think it was a tiny movement right up until it suddenly became the entity we see in Rogue One.

next

helping guide the Alliance from behind the scenes would have been just as valuable, if not moreso.

Pointless.

had the Empire come calling at Tatooine and/or Dagobah.

The Empire was never going to come calling at them. Hiding in a rebel base is asking for trouble.

Luke enrolling in the Imperial Academy and, oh, wait, hold on a second...

Canceled his application. Next.

I wouldn't be surprised if the bodies of the dead Masters were already cleaned/removed before Anakin even showed up.

They couldn't have been when Palpatine was busy fighting Windu. No one else was shown to be in the building.

wackyteen posted...

Tusken Raiders are very much sentient and very much capable of advanced thought and understanding.

Yet it doesn't occur to them that killing everyone else maybe isn't the right thing to do.

wackyteen posted...

They just had their own society and rules.

Animalistic, barbaric society and rules.

wackyteen posted...

Imagine one of the uncontacted tribes left in the world that attack all who come near.

Shmi didn't come near them. They abducted and tortured her to death.

RetuenOfDevsman posted...

So you believe he should be executed on suspicion, ok.

He had just killed three Jedi who came to arrest him, so it's not only suspicion anymore.

Turducken posted...

Some of the men were complicit. So that means kill 'em all.

All of the men were complicit. And the ones who didn't kill Shmi still killed other humans.

Turducken posted...

The women didn't stop them (those who even knew about it, and considering how Shmi was treated I doubt the women are in a position TO stop it). So that means kill 'em all?

The women hate humans, too.

Turducken posted...

The children might one day do something bad.

The kids hate humans, too, and are already being trained to kill humans. So this isn't a "might", it's a guarantee.

Turducken posted...

This feels like the equivalent of a vigilante kicking down your door and gunning you and your family down (and then continuing on to everyone else in the neighborhood) because the guy four houses away has a girl chained up in his basement.

It's more like the equivalent of killing everyone in the neighborhood for being savage killers after a group of them kill your family. Even the ones who didn't kill your family are still pieces of shit.

And it's still not the same thing because the Tusken Raiders aren't humans. They are basically animals who know how to use weapons. Padme has heard them described as "animals" and "mindless vicious monsters", so she doesn't feel very sorry for them.

Turducken posted...

And Padme's like "Eh, these things happen."

They do. Anakin was a teenager who just watched his mother die after being abducted and tortured by a tribe of savages. What he did wasn't right but it was understandable given his grief and he already expressed remorse for his actions. It was still unwise to marry him given all of his emotional problems and the fact he's a Jedi, but she already loved him beforehand and she didn't think he'd do something like this again.

Mibahlzitch posted...

Wow, Scotty, not cool

That doesn't mean it's okay to kill them, but being human herself, Padme won't give a shit about a race that kills humans

Turducken posted...

There's no way you can reasonably hold everyone that lived there accountable for Shmi's death.

All of the men who live there kill humans. They literally 29 who tried to rescuing Shmi.
The women let the men do this.
The children are trained to kill humans.

And remember, the Tusken Raiders aren't even humans. They're basically a race of savage Wookies.

Scotty!

If you sexy and you know it clap your hands

What you think of

birds go baaaaaa
goats go chirp

Both awful fanfic characters

But still better than Bulma

I don't understand why anyone ever thought C3PO was funny

he's basically the original Jar Jar

And cats went moo'd and cows meow'd

They really just don't pay attention to the story lol

DD_Divine posted...

and padme still married him. Yea he murdered sand people and not just the men but the women and children but I can fix him tee hee

@DD_Divine The Sand "People" were savages who kidnapped and tortured his mother to death. They're not even human beings; they're a species that hates and kills humans regularly. The women let the men do these things and the children are trained to kill humans. Although it wasn't right for Anakin to kill them, Padme has no reason to feel sorry for them. Furthermore, she was already in love with him beforehand.

^Says the one who spends all day defending the sequel trilogy and attacking anyone who criticizes them on this board. Take your advice.

Because they were consumed with shame and guilt, obviously.

OBI-WAN: I will take the child and watch over him. Master Yoda, do you think Anakin's twins will be able to defeat Darth Sidious?
YODA: Strong the Force runs, in the Skywalker line. Hope, we can . . . Done, it is. Until the time is right, disappear we will.

You didn't pay attention to the film.

You don't need to guess at this, either, the movies flat-out state it.

What the movies flat-out state, actually, is, "until the time is right, disappear we will".

If anyone finds out Luke's last name is "Skywalker", he's in even more trouble.

That wasn't up to Obi-Wan. No one is looking for the Lars family, anyway, so it doesn't really matter what Luke's last name is.

What's the name of the planet Leia tells Tarkin the rebel base is on to try and save Alderaan?

Not my fault you lumped it in with Ach-Too, which only existed in the sequel trilogy.

Secondly, the sequels are absolutely fair game for this discussion, because you're taking issue with how Luke was portrayed as of TLJ.

If TLJ's flaws can only be explained by random bullshit TLJ made up, then they can't really be explained at all.

Again, you should probably watch the movies before participating in these discussions.

Couldn't care less about a spin-off movie made in 2016, anyway.

Lah'Mu didn't exist pre-Disney. If the post-Disney films retcon the story to make Obi-Wan and Yoda look stupid, then they're just shitty films.

No one says Yoda needs to go do the grocery shopping; he can stay out in the wilds, training the young Jedi, while Obi-Wan handles any commerce that needs to happen.

Yoda's presence is so powerful that he'd be sensed on Tatooine. Dagobah was the only place he wouldn't be detected due to its high concentration of dark side energy.

The reality is, they did have options to both assist the Rebellion and/or train Luke and/or Leia should they have actually wanted to make a difference in the galaxy and not while away their days in self-imposed exile.

Yoda needs to hide somewhere remote so his powerful presence won't be detected.
Luke and Leia need to be separated to lessen the chances of their presence being detected.
That means Obi-Wan could have only trained one of them, which he can't do as he needs to hide in the outskirts that are unsafe for kids.

That said, there's plenty of work for Obi-Wan to do that isn't, "Fight Vader one-on-one."

The only people with any chance of beating the Empire are Luke and Leia. He needs to stay hidden for their sake, not throw his life away helping a futile resistance.

That said, you just admitted that Anakin and Obi-Wan had a rocky relationship, so you've pretty much conceded the point here and I see no point in torturing this sidebar any further.

Just because two people have a rocky relationship doesn't mean they don't care about each other. You ought to learn how human relationships work.

Obi-Wan and Anakin's relationship was love-hate, which is typical of any family. By Revenge of the Sith, they've become like brothers who mutually respect each other as equals and it's only after Anakin turns evil that their relationship goes to Hell.

Based on what? Your interpretation?

Based on what they say and show in the films. I've posted lines and clips showing this, but you want to dismiss all of them because they don't line up with your own false interpretation. They risk their lives for each other. They praise and show respect for each other. They vouch for each other. They wouldn't be doing these things if they didn't care about each other. How much you hate the prequels is irrelevant. Obi-Wan's tears after defeating Anakin were genuine.

Again, someone disagreeing with you doesn't make their argument "bad faith"

There is no "disagreeing" with cold, hard facts. Just denial, which is indeed bad faith.

Hate with the intensity that Kylo had only comes from familiarity.

Yeah, no, you can intensely hate people you were never close to.

you're now arguing against an in-universe character

Says the one arguing against Anakin and Obi-Wan by claiming they weren't close. In other words, pot calling the kettle and black. You're a hypocrite and a liar.
