8. lol Yeah, I've got nothing to defend that scene at all. Just awful. It should have been Leia's death scene.

I think part of KOTOR's purity is its irrelevance to the main story. It's set thousands of years before the movies so it's allowed to do whatever it wants. The first KOTOR is easily regarded as possibly the best SW game and one of the best RPGs period. Unfortunately nothing in the KOTOR catalog compares to the original KOTOR itself, the sequel wound up rushed so the ending is a complete mess that damn near ruins the entire game for me, and then TOR is just ehhh (MMOs are not an ideal way to deliver a story). The old KOTOR comics were pretty good but they felt like background noise compared to the fate-of-the-galaxy stuff we're used to, I really enjoyed the run but I wasn't finding out anything like "oh this how Coruscant got built." So all in all it is perfectly fine if you or anyone wants to dismiss KOTOR because it stands almost completely apart from all other SW.


If Leia had seriously died that freaking early in the movie I imagine fans would be more pissed at that than they are amused at her recovery. The scene could have been done better but without it we would never have gotten a Leia/Luke reunion. I'd rather have some silliness and keep Leia around for the rest of this movie than just have the movie say "remember that Carrie died? She's not in the movie anymore."
