FP keeps deleting the video once I preview it. Fixed it.

Oh man, Mike's subtle [sp]"I want to shoot myself" gesture[/sp] at 5:20 is fucking beautiful Jesus the EU really, really got out of hand.

Emperor Palpatine Surgical Reconstruction Center

Vader is suffering.

the page on darth vaders suit is bigger than the page on "the empire strikes back" on wookieepedia [editline]1st January 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=minilandstan;49430669]Vader is suffering.[/QUOTE] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weZosGF-xvM[/media]

Goddamned budgetary restraints.

[QUOTE=minilandstan;49430669]Vader is suffering.[/QUOTE] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0ffCICQ-bU[/media] Pretty much.

Seriously, what kind of turbo nerd writes serial numbers for vaders suit?

[QUOTE=Cmx;49431270]Seriously, what kind of turbo nerd writes serial numbers for vaders suit?[/QUOTE] Doesn't that imply that there's more than one suit?

And people wonder why I'm fine with Disney wiping the EU clean. Jesus though, is Palpatine a dog, so easily distracted by shiny things?

Yes, that's what Vader wished he could do.

Mike's voice quivering while struggling not to laugh gives me strength

I like how they skipped the plastic surgery. Plastic surgery is an elective procedure, empire insurance don't cover that shit

Ironically, all the best parts of the EU are the things that are set so far in the past that they have literally no connection to the movies except for the basic setting.

[QUOTE=Garrot;49431299]Doesn't that imply that there's more than one suit?[/QUOTE] Maybe all empire equipment has serial numbers, his suit being numbered just like any generic piece of equipment would be.

[QUOTE=Ardosos;49432447]Maybe all empire equipment has serial numbers, his suit being numbered just like any generic piece of equipment would be.[/QUOTE] It wouldn't surprise me if they have some emergency backup suits for Vader

"The guy just can't catch a break."

See, this is why fans should never, ever be given any sort of creative control over the subject of their fandom...

The EU is full of utterly retarded bullshit, but on the other hand the good parts of it are like, the sole saving grace of the prequel movies. The films are horrible, but the universe is so fun to work with. Shit like Republic Commando and the cartoon and all that.

Also, the team from Republic Commando are canon since they appeared in the Clone Wars TV series.
