No, no it is not. You missed the entire point of that post. The flow of the battle down to the visual similarities and the order at which things happened was basically identical. Stop being so obtuse.

You can eye-roll all you want. The idea of a bubble shield didn't originate with PM. The idea of energy shields didn't originate there either. The battle itself, the setup, and the execution were completely different. You cherry-picked the tiniest of similarities to support a narrative that doesn't exist.


Okay bud. You don't want to see it, that's fine. The visual and thematic similarities are there. You want to get hyper specific in order to claim they aren't the same, you do you. The meme exists because people caught on to the similarities.

Your definition of "identical" is what's obtuse. You can't just say "they had two similar defensive items and had to engage each other" and call it identical.

You want to force it. That's cool.

The fact that you don't get the difference between something be similar and being copied is the whole crux of this thread. You seem to think that it's so similar that the ONLY logical conclusion was the Russo's we're like "let's do it like PM".

That scene is based on old military style fighting. Not star wars lol. If the shields were wood and the dome was a wall you wouldn't say shite.
