"i am a jedi like my father before me"

yeah but its all ruined and over now.. we collectively need to just get over it and let it go, its finished and its not coming back.

then take a bath retard

great written

it was written even greater by the million other storytellers who told it before george lucas was ever born

He got his ass kicked every time until the third movie.

such a great written character

Even written correctly that sentence would be embarrassing. Stop watching Starshit.

EUslop

Yes, because a Jedi droid, Han Solo fighting a space otter and Chewbacca getting killed by a moon are so kino. Fuck off dude.

Mark Hamill is one of those guys you can tell is reciting a line AKA a bad actor
He's probably about 5% as good at acting as sayyyy Tom Cruse is

so be it, Jedi

cant fix what is kino

EU slop

great written

hahahhahahahaha

based jess poster

He's kind of a whiner/douche in ANH, actually

can't appreciate Luuke

probably doesn't even know about Luuuke

ngmi

great written character

ESL or just retarded?

I love how the Force and Jedi in the OT was not about muh heckin super powers but the attempt to actualize oneself and the moral good. The greatest Jedi understood the highest power one could achieve was letting go of the physical and desire and understanding everything is transitory yet connected, and that to become a Master didn't mean unlocking Force Lightning Mk.3, it meant truly comprehending that power is not physical and that oneself is part of a greater whole. Even fucking Palpatine understood that, since he mocks Luke for relying on his sword.

Luke became a Jedi not when he beat Vader but when he threw his weapon away and gave Vader the choice to kill him or not. Luke's victory wasn't blowing the emperor up by throwing him into a reactor, it was redeeming his father through his own acceptance of his mortality and letting go of the physical.

Of course the midwits that eventually became the Star Wars fandom can't even comprehend any of this. They just like Star Wars because muh laser sword and anime jump fights.

Yep. the rest isn't canon

True. That's why abandoned all fanbases long time ago.

it boggles my mind how disney took the OT's trio of well-written, ontologically good and inspiring heroes and completely fucked them

han goes from a deadbeat smuggler to... a deadbeat smuggler who fucking dies

leia goes from a leader of the rebellion to... a leader of the rebellion who fucking dies

both are actually divorced because divorce is cool and a real life thing and therefore makes them deeper characters

luke goes from the saviour of the galaxy to some deabeat on an island who dies from thinking too hard

this is how the force is best understood imo, not as a vehicle for wacky superpowers (although that can be cool) but as a direct manifestation of good vs evil, enlightenment vs cravenness, like real life religions in a sense. I like the way andor briefly touches on this aspect of it personally in season 2, with the force healer.

I read the EU as it happened when I was in elementary/middle school. I remember crying while reading that Jacen was fighting and killing Mara. If Luke was truly a Gary Stu, he would've been able to prevent Mara's death. If he was truly a Gary Stu, he would've killed Jacen aboard the Anakin Solo in their first fight. If he was truly a Gary Stu, he would've been able to rematch and kill Jacen without risking a fall to the dark side, and not had to force Jaina to do it.

He tried to warn us.

if he really believed in his own words he wouldn't have taken the paycheck
