Because Dooku always loses to the big, popular villains, usually in round 2 (if he even gets that far). I wouldn't matter if it was Kylo, Vader, or Boba, I just want to see him win against one of the heavy hitters. Granted, this is Kylo's first tournament but we all know he's going to be one of the heavy hitters.

Han and Yoda. It's not even a question.

Personally I prefer Luke over Han and Yoda already got a win so I'd rather see Ahsoka get past him, but it's going to be Han and Yoda. They both tend to steamroll the tournament until they meet up against someone who's also a powerhouse (such as Obi-Wan).

of course not, but he's got a ways to go. He's not fully on villain material. They sabotage him in several ways to make him seem ineffectual and unstable. And they did this all on purpose.

Why? To make it feel believable that Han could get through to his son and convert him back to the Light. They wanted Kylo Ren to seem vulnerable and human, struggling against his inner darkness.

I agree with the second part of your post, but not with your premise. Kylo having flaws isn't "sabotage" or removing him of having a "villain status." Instead, his inner conflict is what makes him more fascinating to me. I don't need my villains to be 100% menacing. Villains are antagonists, that's the only condition they have to fulfil.

Okay, can someone explain this to me?
Everyone always goes on about the sabers needing 'weight', I don't get it.
It's a plasma-sword, what 'weight' does it need to feel like it can kill shit?
Sabers have always felt deadly, more so when they're flying around incredibly fast.
>>
>>81005602
You're not getting this.

The idea is that they HAD to make him like he wasn't a straight up villain. This has nothing to do with degree of menace. This has to do with making you question whether he truly IS a villain. That's what lets you think maybe he can be converted within the movie hew as introduced without having to go the longer route with Vader, who himself himself only started showing signs at the end of ESB and his villainy was starting to crack around the edges at several points in ROTJ. But that's how you treat someone who is established as a true villain. Kylo Ren was set up as a kind of Schrödinger's villain by the mid movie where he might or might not be a true villain depending on how much sympathy you feel or how unstable you feel he is. This is, at least, what was attempted to make Han's try at redeeming Ben make sense. It/s why he didn't just keep his mask on the entire movie as some anon's wish they did. He had to be revealed as human, appear vulnerable. You had to see him react as Rey pushed his button about Vader after turning his own mind link against him, etc etc
>>
I really like the TFA saber duels. There was a certain weightiness to them and there was a better impression that the combatants were aiming to kill, as opposed to say, prequel dancing and "Old man and crippled cyborg awkwardly shuffle about".I still love all the OT and PT duels. Bespin is fantastic.

It should still have resistance with the air.

No, it makes them seem like sparklers because they rarely land on a person with all those missed swings. It becomes choreography rather than a fight.
>>
>>81005689
Kylo Ren wasn't killing people, he was throwing a hissy fit like his mom just grounded him to his room with no supper so he starts trashing the place. Meanwhile his mom Hux is like, "Whatever, you're the one who has to live in that filth.I don't give a fuck."

I agree with your point, just not with your wording. To me, it wasn't a question of whether he would become a villain of a hero. He was clearly a villain. It wasn't like when Luke was getting seduced; it was like an Anakin post-Episode III; he had already fallen. I felt he had more similarities with Vader in Jedi, in the brisk of coming back. It was accentuated and intensified, that's all, but he was still a villain. I agree that they made him human to sell the Han scene, I just think a Sith can be human too.

Shouldn't a lightsaber be something on the order of 3-6 pounds and concentrated entirely at the hilt? It's a tube of metal with crystal inside. Whatever prop would emulate that (wooden staff that's hollow after the hilt, maybe?) would do the best at producing the same feel as that.

Not really. I mean in the duel between Maul, Obi-wan, and Qui-gon, the first portion just feels incredibly floaty. It's only when Obi-wan and Maul are going at it alone that they feel like they're going for kill strikes for most of the swings.

I rather liked the Duel between Anakin and Obi-wan because it was at least consistently fast enough, whereas whenever Dooku's onscreen there's some conspicuously slow movements, or when Sidious has his duel although I don't really mind that one just because it's funny.

>>81006031
Well I don't think it's a matter of being both a villain and a hero at the same time since Kylo Ren didn't do anything heroic. It was more about being a villain, because he most certain did villainous things, while at the same time seeming like someone who was merely duped. It's the duality that's important. The closest he came to revealing a better nature was mentioning his continuing struggle against the Light within him. This set him up as someone whose heart just wasn't in it, whose good side couldn't be said to be dead as you could about Vader pre-ESB's revelation to Luke.

They built on this with the notion that he was corrupted, seduced. That this isn't who Ben truly is, or who he truly wants to be inside.

The interesting thing is what did he really mean on the bridge when talking to Han? Was he really wavering and about to join them? Did the sun being snuffed out, covering them both in shadow seem like a sign to him that he had to remain in darkness?

I'm not sure. I never read the script, but it has some insights like it does say that he believes Han when told that Snoke is using him for his power and will ultimately destroy him when his usefulness is over.

Whether that tidbit is canon or not, I've got no clue. I haven't read the novelization either to see if they even carried it into the book.

That didn't happen in the movie and wasn't shown in the vision Rey had. We actually don't know what went down at Luke's Jedi Order, only what is alleged.

At most the visual dictionary talks about this as how Ben earned his name Kylo Ren, but I'm personal cautious with information like this. Kylo Ren's past, like Rey's, is still clouded within the movies and the production staff are fully capable of lying if they plan some revelatory twist like, "Luke, I am your father."

Does Anakin even have functioning tear ducts at that point? Or emotions beyond anger? Isn't Rebels-era Vader before he settles down and realizes there's more to life than self-loathing, regret, and devotion to the emperor?
>>
The great thing about Kylo is he is already embracing the Dark Side.

In the prequels we had Anakin be a whiny bitch about stuff, but he kept having to hold himself back. Then I felt we missed out on his transition to becoming more stoic, more of the Vader we know from the originals.

Kylo is a whiny brat, but he has absolutely no problem smashing things and nobody is going to tell him he can't. We also have an opportunity to see him grow as a character.

>>81006493
That's not the way it works, is it? Vader was corrupted by Sidious and the Dark Side twisted everything up inside him, inverted the man he was into a monster, but even redeeming at the end didn't erase what he'd done. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Even after saving his son and killing the Emperor Anakins' legacy as Vader lives on still, now worshiped by Kylo Ren if not the rest of the Knights of Ren and the First Order itself.

Ben, even if the victim of brainwashing, still has to account for his actions. It wouldn't erase them.

But yes he, like Anakin, could still be a victim in this.

Sith are full of hate, anger, and greed. He can't let himself die. The fires burning in him are hotter than what happened to him on Mustafar and wouldn't let him die then. He's a broken man, but Obi-Wan was wrong in saying he's more machine. A mere machine cannot feel the way he does.

In order to die he'd have to be able to let go, shut down who he is inside, and he can't. So yeah despite the damage to his suit the big reason he died on the Death Star is that he was finally willing to let himself go. Which, coincidentally yet totally not, is one of the key steps in becoming a Force Ghost. Acceptance and letting go. There's more to it than that but it's a big one and the real reason the Sith can never do it. They will cling desperately to their lives, clawing for every last second even as they die.

What difference does it make? We've seen duels between unskilled family members. Of course it's going to be personal. Luke's dueling his father. The prequels are the same way. It's different because the combatants are actually highly skilled.

That's not the way the Sith work. Anakin seemingly lost everything, everyone that matters, but he still has one last mission. To secure the galaxy, by Force.

Read Lords of the Sith for a decent insight into Vader

Basically he doesn't feel like a cripple when his armor is sealed. He feels whole again. His anger and hate give him drive and focus.

All he cares about is bringing order and security to the galaxy, even if he has to do so by stepping over piles of corpses.

When Luke rejects what he is, is suitably horrified by it that he'd attempt suicide by falling down the Bespin shaft, who he is begins to crack and weaken. He can't even muster the anger to murder someone after the Falcon, which Piett swore was sabotaged, jumps away. It's the beginning of the end for him and it only gets worse.

Wait a minute so Ben actually didn't go join Luke's Jedi academy? I think I have an idea of what happened between Snoke and Ben. I think Leia kind of felt he had the force in him, but for whatever reason instead of sending Ben to Luke's academy she sent him to train as a prince with Snoke. You know, the kind of life the children of royalty live. Learning how to be polite, how to talk to politicians, how to have fancy dinner parties and whatnot. Snoke was probably one of the people who taught Kylo how to be a prince and he secretly taught him about the dark side.

I kinda felt it the opposite direction. When he lost everything, he essentially just became a more exaggerated and brutal version of the Jedi. No possessions, no attachments. He almost literally had nothing other than what he kept on him. Then he finds out he has a son. And thus, the more Sith like urges spark in him. He starts to desire power. Power other than the Force. Power over any and all, and all for himself instead of for the sake of order.
