I think TPM looks the best of the prequels because there are actual, like, sets and practical effects. I know AotC and RotS have them is well but everything feels so fake and CGI.

I'm kind of shocked to find out that Palpatine's office in AotC was a full set, b/c honestly it looks like wallpaper in the movie.

The crazy thing I learned a while back is that the Naboo cruisers are real models, and they're completely covered in CGI to get the reflections right.

It is genuinely weird that so many people complain about the CGI in the prequels but seem to think that the sequels were made using mostly practical techniques. TRoS is loaded w/CGI. And a lot of it doesn't look good. The final battle is a giant mess compared to RotJ.

Exegol feels *incredibly* CGI, nothing like a real place at all Which isn't necessarily bad, it's supposed to feel like a surreal nightmare It's just a very clichéd nightmare

Were the Sith audience/crowd meant to be actual, still living, beings? Because I was going with surreal nightmare and interpreted them as the legion of sith ghosts residing in Palps but most people I've seen talk about them as though they're real

No, they were defintely supposed to be real, living beings. Not sure if they were human under the robes or not. I guess they've just been Sithing it out on the edge of space for decades w/o anybody noticing. There'll probably be a badly drawn comics miniseries explaining it all

I like my interpretation more. Which completely checks out with it being wrong

I thought you couldn't be a ghost if you were a Sith. The Force doesn't let you merge with it. I guess either way Pablo Hidalgo will have a lot of explaining to do.

Sith ghosts have been a thing for a long long time in the EU, it goes back at least to the spirit of Exar Kun in the 90s Jedi Academy books

They just follow different rules - by their selfish nature they can't just exist within the Force and appear wherever and do whatever, they're bound to living people (or haunted objects and locations) they have to possess to act in the world
