Besides, the title alone should indicate this is Darth Vader. Or maybe the movie will open up all dramatic like with Anakin and Obi-Wan fighting their last fight before ANH, and(according to AU) Anakin will plunge into the volcano below, his body be destroyed, andshortly after, the Emperor will take him in. But, over all, this is a movie about Darth Vader, not some little slave kid, or some stupid actor who doesn't know how to act.

And if you have a better explanation for why James Earl Jones is on the casting list, then tell us now.[/Edit]

I haven't watched the clone wars miniseries on cartoon newtork. But from the end of the second movie i thought it was pretty clear Anakin(happy, I spelt it right) hadn't joined the sith yet(correct me if im wrong but i thought only the sith had darth in there names) so he can't be darth vader yet, and i dont think the third movie will start of directly with them fighting, Lucus will have to build up to them fighting.

Edit: The only reason i can think of for James Earl Jones being on the cast list is they are planing on having him later in the film, and not right at the beginning, also explain to me this http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0121766/fullcredits why are they still listing Anakin on the cast list if he is already darth vader.

No, no, Anakin hasn't gone to the dark side YET. He has just really gotten the taint of the dark side in him. This is really apparent in the Clone Wars mini-series, his arrogance when he was going after the sith girl. And he killed her pretty good at the end (with her red lightsabres no less), letting his anger and rage take over his better judgement.

Anakin becomes Darth Vader in Episode 3, at the beginning he'll still seemingly be on the side of the Jedi, but in the movie he will be totally swayed over. I'm guessing that Anakin will 'die' in the movie, fall off a cliff or something. He won't actually die, but for literary purposes, that will be when he becomes Darth Vader, when his former life is dead.

Having played Jedi Academy (and having a friend who is obsessed with the JK series), I can prouldy say that JA is in no way at all like a one-player MMORPG. There are very light RPG elements, but there's nothing massive about the game and it isn't THAT non-linear. Also: the goal is much more well-defined than in any MMORPG. There's just really not much in common with an action-RPG-lite title like Jedi Academy and any MMORPG.

Thank you Hamelin, i knew he couldn't have gone to the dark side yet, even in the cartoon.

Hamelin 07-28-2004 01:55 PM

Yeah, he's just getting really pissy and mean.

Sithdarth 07-28-2004 02:00 PM

That and he is begining to chanlenge Obi Won's authority. He listens less and less. That and he thinks he is god's gift to the Jedi and Obi Won is holding him back.

Sidenote: I'm not the starwars fanboy my name would suggest. There is a story behind this name but it's a little long and of topic for here.

KotOR would make an awesome movie. God DAMN that game is brilliant.

MasterOfMagic 07-28-2004 04:05 PM

As soemone said in another thread, games like that have too many variables to translate into a movie very well. They'd have to pick some, and that would piss some people off b/c they liked it another way.

Lockeownzj00 07-28-2004 04:27 PM

Oh I'm tired of hearing that. It's an excuse to not do work. It is SO easy to do something like that. Of course they'd have to choose one set of paths, but you have to do that in the game too! In the game you can't see 'all the paths' so you wouldn't in the movie either!

They would probably choose from the moderately-good-to-holy path for the movie, but if they're really shooting for variety and are willing to create a new genre of movies, they could always make the 'good' path movie and the 'evil' path movie.

Still, even if there were only one, it would translate fine, I tell you.

MasterOfMagic 07-28-2004 04:30 PM

If you think so. But I think they'd go for starting out good, ending up evil. Leaves room for a sequel. That or do the two movie idea.
