He's a cyborg. Basically pre-Vader, but shitty. And besides, why hype him up as some nig that killed some jedi and kept their sabers when you give him such a shit fight.

>muh light saber twirl
>hands get chopped off in under a minute

You're right he shouldn't be much of a match for a jedi, but the thing is that they made him seem like he was, but fucked up his fight sequence to pants on head retarded levels.

What the fuck? The sabers in Grievous' right hands are Anakin and Luke's.

For being the first pg 13 star wars movie it has by far the most kid parts in it that makes jar jar tame in comparison. Just pay attention to all the droid dialog in the opening scene.

Anakin actually looked pretty scary in some shots. It's too bad the image was ruined every time he talked.
>>
>>64203375
probably so they matched the replica toys better.
>>
>>64203305

It's a shitty jumbled mess that doesn't make sense unless you were an 8 year old (like me) that watched The Clone Wars animated series, which was far better than anything we got in the movie.

Fuck, there were fun space adventures in the animated shit and we got to see Anakin be a dick about not getting the renown and power that he wanted. That makes sense, rather than a vague promise about preserving life that Sheev managed to fuck everything up with.

I guess he could have done worse.

>>64203656
Obi-Wan wasn't just some scrub Jedi, though. He was one of the best the order had. Besides, the Clone Wars cartoon (the original) explained it pretty well. GG only killed Jedi when they were tired, scared and intimidated.
>>
>>64203899

big brother
>>
>>64203477
In the 2d cartoon Dooku told Grievous that he needed surprise, fear, and intimidation when fighting the jedi. If he lacked any of those Grievous would lose. That made sense because if a Jedi was able to calmly focus enough then they could target Grievous, but otherwise he would overwhelm them quickly.

Also in the EU (rip) he had other enhancements such as legs that could magnetically anchor himself to the ground to counter-act forcepushing.
>>
>>64203899
No, that's why Obi-Wan failed with Anakin. He saw Kenobi as more of a big brother than a father, which is why he didn't respect or listen to him.

I actually like the idea and character of General Greivous

Strong general and fighter and was trained in lightsaber combat and not the spiritual element of the force. He makes up for having no magic by having more swords and having robot strength and being able to do movements impossible for a humanoid. Gets bested by a jedi because he didn't have the force and was basically only trained to fence.

Unfortunately he was used as coughy villian man and to have a 20 minute laser stick fight

pfft, try harder next time

Surely it would have been better to have the light sabers be part of his body.
Better yet why not just a giant light sabers that moves itself

Why was YODA so worried about Grievous, enough to tell ALL OTHER JEDI to stay away, if all he can do is suck and die?

>>64204002
Yeah, it sucked.

because Yoda is a little bitch nigga

Obi Wan rekt GG because he was a master of Form III lightsaber combat.

No I certainly did not. But I was expecting it to be cool because I had seen this...

Or even better:

If Obi-Wan can sneak up on Grievous while riding a neon colored, loudly squawking dinosaur, why couldn't a group of clone troopers just snipe him from a safe distance?

>>64203899
>>64203974
he was his father figure.
sheev is playing off his disillusionment.
this is the entire story.

I don't recall Yoda being scared of him. I mean, he sent only 1 Jedi after him, Yoda clearly thought GG was a bitch.

Lucas is a hack.

Luke is a c.u.c.k.o.l.d, the whole film was about him, yet they didn't even give him a single line to say.

Biggest c.u.c.k character in the history of cinema, a reflection of its audience.

also since he isnt a force user it kind of de-elevated the uniqueness of lightsabers for me

The big Grievous mistake that no one talks about is that they didn't get a professional actor to perform his voice. The voice of Grievous is Matthew Wood, a Lucasfilm engineer. If you listen to the Grievous lines in III, they're totally stilted. The emphasis on words is all wrong, and it's totally unemotional. If they got an actual actor it would've been better, but hey, maybe not, even seasoned Shakespearean actors can't do anything with this material.

It is kinda cool but i've always been an autist for lightsabers and noticed even in the cinema that the two hilt in his left hands are obi wan and lukes lightsabers. A lazy mistake that made obi wan and lukes lightsabers generic designs in the canon.

It was a good fight and I love anything with Obi Wan so fuck it.

I always assumed the only reason jedi and sith fight each other with lightsticks is because they can block each others force bullshit. The fight against non-force user should be over in a second as jedi destroys their brain/heart/whatever with a flick on a finger. Not that this problem didn't exist in OT, where master Luke still gets himself captured and nearly killed like a fucking idiot
