      I ain't going to lie. That whole portion of the dialogue gave me flash backs of military service. But to be fair, once you have at least two soldiers you are supposed to figure out who is in charge and then come up with some plan of action. Even if that means a five hour long "take 5".

      I mean, the purpose of stormtrooper armor is to disperse energy. It knocks the guy out and saves his life and lets his buddies keep going without spending precious time administering first aid.
      So in reality, their armor is pretty good.

Also the commander was probably hit by a grenade or artillery because when you see him, he’s half the man he used to be.

    • @kennyroberson5726
      @kennyroberson5726 Před rokem +18

      the only thing that kept distracting me from this not being live action was that the armor definitely was made from the action figures. you can tell from how the "mouth" of the armor isnt painted perfectly to the groove in the helmet and the other aspects that should make depth were also painted on. Again though thats because these models were more than likely made from photoprinting the toy and not being hand made models and textures.

    Man- the part where he's just staring at him while he describes how the armor is blaster proof- priceless. With the helmets on you have no ability to show the face which makes it near impossible to have characters communicate through body language like that but- it worked perfectly. The blank look of the storm troopers helmet just naturally lends itself to that "Are you an idiot?" kind of expression- Still- that's not easy to pull off- this is extremely well done- and not just from a technical standpoint. The writing, the way you instantly just know both characters, the way they are able to express emotion even with a helmet covering their face, right down to the voices- it all works seamlessly. And the comedic timing is spot on. Very well done.
