Get this woman to host celebration
ОтветитьThis video is fantastic! The ending of Revenge of the Sith and the tragedy of the breaking down of Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan's relationship is one of the greatest tragedies in the history of cinema.
ОтветитьGeorge Lucas was on another level, especially when I hear the interpretation of the marvelous Camille Paglia, who thinks on a completely different wavelength than I do; particularly the artistic aesthetic, the progression of the compassion of men towards children, etc. I don't think I've ever heard a Star Wars fan this passionate about these images, these themes and properties, and make it so convincing!!!
ОтветитьThis is almost impossible to watch with all the stuttering, "ehhh"s, "you know"s..... recap anyone?
ОтветитьDisney wishes they can hold a candle to Lucas's legacy in terms of societal impact and fruits reaped. MCU is merely a shameless cash grab and the sequels are a steaming pile of shit.
ОтветитьThis aged so well
ОтветитьAnd then they ruined it all by making Obi wan.
ОтветитьStar Wars going to Disney is like Anakin going to Palpatine.
ОтветитьOh man i miss those Spike TV star wars reruns
ОтветитьIt's unfortunate the finished product looks like a computer cartoon.
ОтветитьWalter White: “you’re goddamn right”
ОтветитьIf only everybody knew that Spielberg actually directed most of the finale.
ОтветитьWow. I love Camille's enthusiasm. ROTS, despite its faults, is an amazing picture--my favorite of the Star Wars saga.
ОтветитьStrong father figures! Strong male figures! Yes!
ОтветитьThis was put so well
ОтветитьI've only been able to ever finish it twice. If you can draw enjoyment from it, do that, but the second you claim that it's a good movie or a good Star Wars movie, well...
ОтветитьIt’s a joy to watch such a respected figure in the arts celebrate one of my all time favorite films, flawed as it may be. It is utterly insane that this movie was made. To this day there has still been nothing like it - the ambition and scale is untouchable.
Cameron continues to push the technical envelope but the inventiveness, imagination and complexity is owned by Lucas still.
His Star Wars films are imperfect because there’s just nothing else like them, period. Perfection is developed over time, iteration and repetition - there’s no chance for it when something is so incredibly new and bold. Therefor such polish should not be expected or used as a lens of judgement against such a mind bogglingly intricate and novel tapestry.
The opening scene of Revenge of the Sith alone is all the evidence needed, let alone the rest. The prequels can be really hokey at times, sure, but my god do they still stand alone as a testament to the vast reaches of the imagination, even from one person. Just incredibly inspiring.
Clearly she hasn't seen the finale of The Lord of the Rings, but otherwise I completely agree.
ОтветитьThis is where the fun begins
Ответитьdid she stutter? yes, but she wasn't wrong.
ОтветитьWhat if you like the empire though??😅
ОтветитьIn 1993, Paglia signed a manifesto supporting NAMBLA, a pederasty and pedophilia advocacy organization.[80][81] In 1994, Paglia supported lowering the legal age of consent to 14. She noted in a 1995 interview with pro-pedophile activist Bill Andriette, "I fail to see what is wrong with erotic fondling with any age."[82][83] In a 1997 Salon column, Paglia expressed the view that male pedophilia correlates with the heights of a civilization, stating "I have repeatedly protested the lynch-mob hysteria that dogs the issue of man-boy love. In Sexual Personae, I argued that male pedophilia is intricately intertwined with the cardinal moments of Western civilization."[81] Paglia noted in several interviews, as well as Sexual Personae, that she supports the legalization of certain forms of child pornography.[84][85][82]
ОтветитьROTS is so amazing I'm glad that there's such a vocal love for it. I genuinely think it's an amazing film, I think it perfects the overly dramatic acting style that George was going for. It's got the least overly goofy stuff, the music is my favorite of the saga, and it's a film that gets better as I rewatch it.
ОтветитьI would really want to know exactly to which film, play or whatever form of storytelling she was referring when she said 30 years, I want to see the thing that was as powerful as revenge of the sith, please if someone knows let me know
ОтветитьObi-wan handed off the baby Luke to Beru, not Owen, at the end.
ОтветитьWho’s here after seeing this on So Uncivilized
ОтветитьWhile I totally love Revenge of the Sith and I agree with her that it's an incredibly compelling movie, I would strongly disagree with her statement that no other work of art in any medium in the last 30 years is comparable to it. I mean, RotS is great and all, but it's not the be-all/end-all work of art in modern times.
ОтветитьThe thing with the prequels is that all their problems are surface level things. The underlying structure of them, the symbolism and the imagery, the subtleties of the editing, all of that stuff, was rock solid. Was Jar Jar a little cringe at times? Sure. Was the dialogue wooden? Sure. But the moments where there was no dialogue, where the only thing Lucas could do was show rather than tell, the prequels absolutely hit it out of the park.
ОтветитьI saw ROS in theaters when I was 9 years old, at that age I was already a complete nerd. I had seen the original, loved the prequels, and the scene that always stuck with me to this day was the birth of Darth Vader side by side with the death of Padme. Masterful filmmaking, and she's right there will never be anything as epic as the finale ROS.
ОтветитьLucas........ I'm sorry.
Ответитьwhat a beautiful response
ОтветитьAgree
ОтветитьFinally.. I’ve felt so isolated. I was like why am I the only one that cries during the fight if good and evil. The integrity obiwan has to fight someone he practically raised. Not sure why people hated the prequels. I agree, so artistic.
ОтветитьCamille OP, rito pls nref.
I've met only two women somewhat close to this level in my entire life. One was very old and the other about 10 years younger than me but was very ugly. Camille Paglia was cute when she was young but she's a staunch lesbian. RIP.
Wow
ОтветитьThe least dramatic person loving drama ❤️
ОтветитьCamille is the only person I've ever seen (or 'heard', that is) who approaches the swiftness-of-speech deployed by my own real-life Mother
ОтветитьNot a crossover I ever expected. Camille Paglia and Star Wars. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
ОтветитьAgree
Now, 4 years later: RotS or Endgame?
Bravo.
ОтветитьWhen you hear someone asking a question about Star Wars in a humanities festival, of all things, the immediate picture that comes to mind is of snobby art critics thumbing their noses up and poohing in disgust at such low brow things, and then this happens. It's certainly not a thing I would have ever expected to see but it's very refreshing.
ОтветитьI love this, Revenge of the Sith is truly a great piece of cinema, I do think it has its flaws in dialogue and maybe pacing but the emotion in that movie and the amount of tone and symbolism it has with its storytelling truly makes it one of the most beautiful and tragic pieces of cinema history
Ответить😭😭😭Such a beautiful thing to say
Ответить"I fail to see what is wrong with erotic fondling with any age." - Camille Pagila
ОтветитьI agree!!!!!!!!!
Ответитьjesus camille I agree with you but lay off the amphetamine salts so you can finish a fucking thought on stage
ОтветитьOmg she almost got me at tears 😭
ОтветитьPERFECT! She Nailed it!
ОтветитьThe feminist pedo is a prequel apologist, no surprise here.
