Someone typed this into google and ended up at my site, so let me help.
Emperor Palpatine, who is like John Bracewell, asks Luke, who is like Daniel Vettori, to kill Darth Vader, who is like Stehpen Fleming, so Luke (Daniel), can be Palpatine’s apprentice (Bracewell’s captain).
Ok thats where the NZ references cease to make sense.
Luke decides not to kill Vader cause of the whole father thing, Palpatine being a bit dodgy, and he’s a bit of a pansy.
So Palpatine tries to kill Luke, but Vader likes Luke, so he intervenes.
He throws Palpatine into a core reactor type Sci Fi thingy, but Palpatine attacks him with the lighting special effect and Darth gets mortally wounded.
There is just enough time for him to remove his helmet and for Bert Newton to say goodbye.
It’s touching, camp, and a little stupid.
Also we were all disappointed to find out the coolest guy on screen ever was in fact, a middle aged white guy.
Wouldn’t it have been easier if Emperor Ruddock, I mean Palpatine, just had two apprentices?
I never worked out quite what Temuera Morrison was doing mixed up in all of that.
MF, Always two there are, a master and an apprentice. LB, Yeah cause Temuera Morrison always picks quality films. Speed 2.At least he got to be Jango Fett.
It was hilarious, his accent was so out of place. Still, different system, different accent I suppose. And his little Kiwi kid! Heh heh. It’s even funnier that they redid all Boba Fett’s dialogue in the originals to be consistent.
Well I’m glad you paid attention to the Phantom Menace.But they were the Empire, surely they could make and break the rules?
That was what was cool about the empire though, that they only needed 2 dudes to bring down the system. None of this training little brats nonsesne, one dude, who has anger issues and one old dude good with the lightning.
If they’d just let Temuera Morrison play Jake the Muss it would’ve been so much better.
Yeah he was great in what becomes of the broken hearted.
