Rogue One and TOS actors

He put his back out doing all that stuff in Rogue One, hence being a lot less nimble in A New Hope

Excellent, King Danny, excellent! Thing I never understood about Darth Vader and his suit which kept him alive was how in Rogue One he was able to have a bath without his costume?

It's a Bacta Tank, not a bath. Healing stuff, like they plunked Luke in on Hoth after his run-in with Chompy the Snowman.

 

[johnnybear]

Yes I know it was a nutrient, healing chemical bath or the like but I would have thought that he was unable to remove his helmet or suit because they were his life support systems!
JB

 

[CorporalCaptain]

Let's put it this way. If you are dependent upon a life support system to survive, then you can safely remove your life support system if you are immediately immersed in... another.

 

[johnnybear]

Okay I get you but I thought his lungs had been replaced? No jumping into a bath is going to explain that faux pas! His suit I mean having the equipment inside it to allow his breathing!

[Maurice]

Oh for Pete's sake, just Google "Vader bacta tank" and voila. Still on a respirator.

 

[johnnybear]

Creepy to say the least!

[F. King Daniel]

Bath Vader

 

[Lieut. Arex]

an experiment would be interesting but it would only make sense in a "Clone wars"/Rebels type project the synthetic Leia was fine for the short bit of screen time it had, carrying a feature is another matter as is a series meant to stand alongside the previous ones

If they have the technology to put Nicholas Cage's face on anyone , I'm sure they can do Shatner .
