>Luke, did I ever tell you about the time I was one of the most respected actors in the world, performing in renowned films such as Kind Hearts and Coronets, The Bridge on the River Kwai and A Passage to India? I even got an Oscar and a Knighthood in recognition for my talent and excellence. Then, while I was between shooting masterpieces with David Lean, a nerd named George Lucas begged me to play a samurai wizard from space in his sci-fi/fantasy flick. I took it to be nice, even though it meant saying lines such as "Only a master of evil Darth". Somehow, despite Lucas's bungling, it was a huge success and he roped me into appearing in the two equally idiotic sequels. I didn’t want to, but my code of honor as British gentleman and an actor prevented me from leaving a project unfinished. Now that's those movies are the only thing people remember me for. When you search my name on Google Images, the first result is from a website called “Wookiepedia”. My legacy is ruined forever thanks to Lucas. He was a good friend.

Basically, it's just Lucas's cheesy writing showing. People bash the prequels for their dialogue, but he originals had their moments too. The only difference is that the originals had people on the team working with Lucas giving criticism while the prequels was full of nothing but Yes men.

At this point, Darth was just his name and not a title for Sith

MANCHILDRENS BTFO

I wonder what Guiness would say if he knew that manchildrens of today aren't satisfied with childrens comics or Star Wars... that they watch My Little Pony, a cartoon meant for little girls.

RIP in peace obi wanna tokie, glad you never saw what this world has become.

It's funny that he was okay with the movie before it became a cultural icon that people would obsess over.

Do these Star Wars autists freak out if they are in the hospital and someone says "Good work, Doctor" ?

Or are they just idiots?

Holy shit it's true.

Alec hated Star Wars but he was the only one to actually believe in it that for pay he wanted a cut of the profits. He made a shit load of money off of this garbage.

He made plenty of sense. He's saying that calling him "Darth" isn't different than calling your doctor "doctor."

bridge on the river kwai for me, mainly because it was my grandfathers favourite movie
>>
>>64717278
This story always just makes me think that Alec Guinness was a closed-minded, cruel, inconsiderate kind of man.

His "legacy," such as it is, was pointless -- what really mattered was the faith and goodwill that sprung up in the wake of Star Wars' cultural impact. As a serious actor, he was meaningless, just another thespian in a long line of thespians. As Obi-Wan Kenobi, he became great, immortal, larger-than-life. Rather than embrace this, because he couldn't (he was too small a man to do so,) he instead opted to break a young boy's heart, and generally act like a cunt about it.

He wasn't. He was trying to help that kid. Too bad the Mom couldn't see that.
>>
>>64720013
I don't see the issue with this, he wasn't even trying to say Star Wars was terrible and no one should watch it, he was just expressing that he found it concerning that people would be OBSESSED with a movie, which is unhealthy no matter which movie it is.

how is trying to help a kid out being a cunt? seeing a movie that many times is fucking retarded even for an adult

"When we last met, I was but the learner. Now, *I* am the master."

" Only a master of evil, Darth."

Obi-Wan is saying that Vader has fully mastered being evil but is not a true master of the force. This is evidenced in the following statement from Obi-Wan:

"If you kill me, I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine."

Obi-Wan, by becoming a force ghost, shed his corporeal body and became a luminous being. This enabled him to assist Luke to make that one-in-a-million shot that destroyed the Death Star.
