My Favorite Star Wars Moments (1-10)

Here's my top Ten.....may the force be with you.....
             I.      Obi Wan defeats Darth Vader- This is the #1 moment, well I’m actually referring to the entire duel which was beautifully done in Revenge of the Sith. A suit-less Darth Vader goes at Obi Wan Kenobi, a powerful Jedi master. Obi wan owned General Grievous but this proves that Anakin/Vader was a much tougher opponent. At the duel’s conclusion Obi gets the high ground and dares his adversary to still fight him. Anakin does, and pays for it dearly, losing another arm and both his legs….and on top of that he is burned very badly at the foot of a mustafar lava river….talk about a bad day. Obi Wan is disgusted but clearly does not want to kill Anakin, he simply lets the force decide….some 19 years later Vader gets his revenge…..EPIC DUEL!


          II.      Anakin throws the Emperor to his death- I absolutely love this moment…it’s almost enough to bring me to tears….Darth Vader finally died and Anakin came back. He realized that Palpatine had basically ruined his life, or maybe he already knew that….but he wasn’t about to let Palpatine kill his son with Force lighting. Anyways this is such an awesome moment. Anakin saved his son’s life at the cost of his own. Hence the name Return of THE jedi.


       III.      Luke finds out that Darth is his father- Yeah its not #1, but it made my top 3 so stuff it lol. Like most of the people who saw Empire Strikes Back I was absolutely blown away by this revelation. After all Luke’s motivation for being a jedi knight was to avenge the death of his father Anakin by the hands of Lord Vader. What Luke finds out that Obi wan kinda sort of lied to him. Oh wait yea I forgot “what I told you was true, from certain point of view”-Obi Wan lol.

       IV.      Mace Windu is killed by Palpatine- Okay before seeing the movie, I knew(and im sure all of you knew) that Mace was going to die….and yes the powerful Jedi Master got the best death. There’s been a lot of discussion about this moment. I think that Windu beat him…but It’s obvious that Palpatine/Darth Sidious was going to put his faith in Anakin to back him up. If Anakin weren’t there I think Sidious would have fled.

          V.      The blowing up of the 2nd Death Star- This was a pretty epic moment. The rebels complicated plan finally succeeds and they get fighters to go into the core of unfinished Death Star. Of course the Millenium Falcon’s narrow escape makes this a hell of a moment. Lando: “YEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAA!”

       VI.      Darth Sidious fights Yoda- An epic battle that was actually for the future of the galaxy, yet noone really saw it happen. Yoda and Sidious fight in the Galactic Senate building. Sidious throws the Senate platforms at Yoda, showing that he really doesn’t care about the Senate at all. Yoda makes him lose his lightsaber(which is not shown) but the clever Sith Lord makes it a duel of the force…which apparently Yoda couldn’t win.

    VII.      Anakin turns to the darkside- Okay you’re probably wondering why this isn’t higher up. Well truth be told its an epic moment, and that’s what I’m putting as #6, the moment right after Mace Windu’s death. The scene has excellent dialogue. You could tell that Palpatine had been waiting for this moment for a long time.



 VIII.      Hoth Battle- This battle is epic. It’s just filled with great dialogue, but of course the action is what makes the scene. Its really just a beat down by the Imperial army. The rebels really didn’t have much chance here. Vader leads the assault into the Rebel base after its defenses are torn to shreds..


       IX.      The duel between Yoda and Count Dooku- This duel was funny. Noone expected Yoda to be a great duelist although that would only have made sense. Yoda holds his own, but Dooku escaped by putting a pillar over the injured bodies of Anakin and Obi wan. I have no doubt that Yoda was going to win the duel if it weren’t for that.

          X.      When Luke sees Anakin’s apparition in ROTJ- This was a major surprise. But then again it wasn’t. Anakin appears beside Obi and Yoda. In the remake version you see a young Anakin as opposed to the old Anakin. It’s a touching moment to see Anakin finally at peace. Luke sure seemed please no matter which version you watch.

Album Review: Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign-Vultures 1

 This album review is way overdue. I've had a long time to sit with the album....I really liked it at first but it hasn't really aged as well as other Kanye projects. Kanye's lyricism has taken a noticeable decline. I mean hes not horrible but alot of these bars are bad or tasteless. Ty Dolla $ign on the other hand does a great job on pretty much every track. The production though, as with most Kanye albums is really good.   Some of it was reminiscent of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy or Yeezus. There are a few guest spots and most are well used. Hearing Kanye's daughter, North West, on "Talking"is cute. Freddie Gibbs steals the show on the hilarious "Back to Me". "Carnival" is a certified hit which features Playboi Carti & Rich the Kid. Overall most of these songs are good but I cant say this really adds much to Kanye's illustrious discography. Lyrics 19 Beats 23 Depth 22 Tilt 21 Verdict 85

Album Review: Kid Cudi-Insano (regular version)

 I gotta admit I didn't like this album that much when I first heard it over half a year ago. I've heard that Kid Cudi doesn't exactly play to his strengths....that's partly true. I do like his rapping here tho. Honestly most songs here kinda blend together....."Keep Bouncin'" is really hype....and it gets the album off to a good start. "At The Party" with Pharrell Williams and Travis Scott may be my favorite song. "Wow" with A$AP Rocky is another highlight. Overall tho I feel this album tries too hard to be trendy. Cudi needed to put more of his pain into it. I mean a happy Cudi album isn't a bad thing but it really seems odd to me. You're not getting alot of singing or hums here know what I mean? However the production I found to be very good. Cudi is one of my favorite rappers like top 20 and I guess this will do for 2024. Lyrics 20 Beats 23 Depth 21 Tilt 21 Verdict 85

Video Game Review: Jedi Survivor

 About a week ago or so I beat Star Wars Jedi Survivor. Im so happy I got a chance to play it cause they put it on PS4....yes I sadly as of early 2025 do not have a PS5 yet. But anyways I thought the game was considerable improvement over Jedi Fallen Order in most ways.  The game is set a few years after the end of the first game. One thing I like is you keep all your Jedi techniques from the first game Jedi Fallen Order. You can force push and pull and double jump right from the jump. Early in the game you also get access to a new lighstaber form dual wield. In this game there are 5 lightsaber forms. Single is good in any situation but not the best for ideal situations. I think double bladed has good defense but low range. Dual wield is fast but has low defense. Later on you get access to a blaster form which has great range. Then there's the Cross-guard which is Kylo Ren's lightsaber form...its slow in this game but has high damage and defense to it. The enemy variety in the...
