In the book this scene felt so much better. I do think it’s filmed terribly.

It’s weird for me the amount that voted on the first option, with all the flaws of this movie.

I agree with this.Strat wrote:I loved that she did such a thing. She is a skywalker. She's in tune with the force. She sensed such things during Empire and ROTJ. Makes perfect sense to me in a survival situation she was able to harness such power.
I loved it but I hated how it looked. I thought it looked cheap. Too CGI.

I coined the phrase space Mary poppins. To my shame.
It should have been a beautiful powerful scene. But it does look just wrong.

My biggest beef with heavily CGI'd scenes like that is they can never get the lighting right.

Agree 100%. I find that you can judge the degree of darkness and corruption in someone's soul by how they react to that scene... ::backs aways from thread::durdencommatyler wrote:I do.

I wish I'd been more active during your LOST reviews. I feel like we could have had some great conversations.
