Donnie Yen was a Hong Kong cliche in that movie, and his fight scenes were absurdly unrealistic. I'm talking about within the scope & context of Star Wars realism. It was stupid. Repeated viewings have ameliorated my indignation a bit. It wasn't the core of the character, but the execution and his stylings that infuriated me. Donnie Yen himself was responsible for a lot of this bullshit getting added in. His character wasn't even fucking blind in the original script. His influence on this is as unwelcome to me as Samuel L. Jackson's influence on the Mace Windu character (ex. the purple extra-long lightsaber).Donnie Yen was fucking awesome in that movie. It showed you don't need a light saber to be a bad ass force user.
How salty are you going to be when Mara Jade and her light whip show up?
Mara Jade is old EU. If she shows up, I won't be mad, I'll be confused as fucking hell.
