When they gave Yoda a lightsaber for the first time. Most iconic character ruined.

Thank you. I see so many people say this was one of the best scenes of the prequels, but I can still remember my stunned disappointment when I saw it in theaters.

Yoda is supposed to be this great sage who is so powerful he never cared about violence or fighting skills. But lolnope, turns out he can actually fight, and when he does he looks like a monkey who did a rail of coke then grabbed onto a glowstick.

People stood up and cheered in my theater for that.

That’s kind of when I stopped caring what other people think about movies.

There are two kinds of star wars fans.

First kind: cares about consistency of plot and character

Second kind: dude it’s all a fantasy, why do you care so much lol, hey look laser sword go buzz lol

That’s why i don’t go to theatres anymore. People really need to be superfans and excited and show their excitement and be more excited than other people.
I saw some videos where people freaked the fuck out while watching engame, and people were so happy to be there for it. To me it looked like an absolute painful experience.
