Star Wars Memes

I'm not gonna argue there weren't some overreaches in the special editions. The creature stuff was probably too much though I did love the starfighter shots.

This though I'm pretty much fine with these days. The way I see it Vader almost never saw himself without the mask since he needed it to live outside that special chamber that had no mirrors in it I could see. So once he came back to the light and became a force ghost why wouldn't he project the image of himself as Anakin that he knew best? Obi-wan and Yoda had many years to get used to their old bodies and so naturally would project them, but Anakin essentially stopped existing when he woke up in the suit, so of course he goes back to that when he gets rid of it.

Just be thankful they didn't have deepfake technology back then or they absolutely would have swapped his face into the mask removal scene.

Luke never saw his father except in that one moment where he took the helmet off. And the "thing" behind the mask didn't look like Sebastian Shaw as force ghost either.

Watchers from the prequel generation (like me) recognize Hayden, but I didn't know who the fuck that old dude was when he appeared when I was 10 and when they haven't replaced him yet.

I mean, hows he going to recognize him either way? Not like he raised Luke at all.

When Obiwan died his clothes fell to the ground, so shouldn’t his ghost be naked?

To be fair, this was changed so that the AUDIENCE could know who it was.

For example, the 1980s movie Firefox takes place mostly in Soviet Russia, but everyone speaks English. This was done so the audience could clearly understand what was being said and what is happening. There are instances where it is simply assumed that if that particular situation was real, the characters would actually be speaking in Russian and not English.

For Star Wars, the audience could only assume the mysterious third Force Ghost was Anakin, but could have been confused as to who it was if they were not paying close attention or if they had missed some parts of the movie. After the prequels released, it could have been more confusing to leave it that way since the original actor looks nothing like an aged Hayden, so the actor was changed. There also could have been a likeness or royalty deal that needed to be renegotiated and it may have been faster/cheaper/better to simply have Hayden instead.

As adult Vader it shows he had turned to the light side

As Anakin before he turned evil it shows he never redeemed himself

Why would he recognize him like this, Vader was burnt beyond recognition and never looked like the man on the left ever in his entire life

He Force Knew. Duh.

Are the Younglings in Force heaven too?

Would they recognize Anakin? 😏

Suspends disbelief to accept magical space wizards that can mind rape you if you're not careful enough.

Different looking ghost...... aww hell no!
