tl;dr, Darth Vader is like Frankenstein's monster. Satisfied, gentlemen? Only except instead of living while hated by society and attempting to define his purpose in life he had a position of some considerable political and military power and killed rebels.

So yeah.

So he's not like Frankenstein's monster at all, but instead the scene has parallels to the Frankenstein movies that are meant to symbolically signify Anakin's transformation into a monster/Darth Vader?

Well that is too complex and too dark for children

As "New Disney" we are instead going to replace that scene with THREE comical sidekicks.

In fact our new movie is C3PO, Jar Jar, and a jive talking Ewok having adventures.

Why would you use an ewok over a jawa.

Because Disney loves fuzzy animals and comic relief characters.

I mean... why else would there be three comic relief sidekicks in Princess and the Frog otherwise?

I loved that movie until the animal sidekicks showed up.

Grr...

For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

I feel the urge to punch something for some reason. Perhaps it's the endless parade of slippery slope fallacies and people who think that they're valid points.

Hey MaximumZero, if you're around, can you teach me the ways of facepunching?

   Until we get something else from the people now in charge of SW everything beyond the fact that there will most likely be movies 7, 8, and 9 is flights of fancy on our part. Its all slippery when you have no facts to work with as you can only go on the past IE, they had this so they did that, and apply it to the current situation. Also because it is Disney who do have a reputation for making what is now easier to call a Disney movie I think the fears behind our points are valid.

Actually I was bringing up the movie "Princess and the Frog" only replacing "three comedy sidekicks" with annoying Starwars characters plus inventing one more.

I don't know what Disney films you've been watching, but in mine the bad guy dies. Usually by falling off a cliff.

It couldn't of got any worse! Vader was like Fucking Frankenstein at the end of episode 3!]
In case you haven't already been corrected, you mean he was like Frankenstein's Monster, right?

(If you have, I'll may edit in some other comment that needs making onto this post.)

We've already derailed in that direction, so edit away.

Would have done, but you replied, so... now, what was I going to replace it with?

First of all the words "male midwife", in answer to one post, then I had something else to say, instead, when I decided that wasn't good enough.

No, that doesn't work now either...

I think that this could be a good thing.

First: Kathleen Kennedy will be in charge, which is a good sign.
Second: George Lucas will not be in charge, which is an even better sign.
Third: Not all of Disney is Pixar/the animation department.
Fourth: Disney has a good record of going hands off on their new acquisitions.
Fifth: Is the possibility of revolving directors/writers. Joss Whedon and Brad Bird anyone?
Sixth: No new edits of the original films!
Seventh: Ok, so maybe it does end up sucking. Three words: Red Letter Media. Tell your friends.

Basically I don't think they can make it worse. Which means, if we go in expecting the prequels we can't be disappointed, and we may be pleasantly surprised.
