armed brainwashed child soldiers
ALL the younglings had lightsabers

Oh the times, they are a changing

Only in that Jedi Outcast mod

Wish Vader and Anakin were two separate characters as originally intended. It was such an ass pull never added up. Oh, well he saved his son so that makes up for all people her murdered like an entire planet

I mean it's a pretty Christian story I guess? Luke was literally the only person who could forgive Anakin for all the evil shit he did. Even in the book force Anakin shows up to Leia and she's like "no fuck you". Dunno if Luke ever found out his dad murdered a room full of children though.

He spent 20 years in a torturous gimp suit as the brain broke bitch of a guy who almost literally gloats that he tricked him thinking his wife and kids died BECAUSE of him. Vader is a piece of shit, but the due was suffering 24/7/365 on space time.

Looks fine considering half his body got burned to a crisp

A CIS LORD?

Lucas is all over map on that stuff. One hand he compares Vader to a type of Heinrich Himmler to Emperors Hitler. Then all about Salvation. However if he planed on that I don’t think he’d had Vader be part of entire planet of millions of people getting blown out of existence

Anakin having a miserable life and being corrupted is one thing, it's just when George put this shot in it goes so overboard that I guess only Like could forgive him. Pretty funny how in the ST Anakin's lightsaber is treated as some sacred object when it was the Youngling Slayer 2000

I am now several years older than Darth Vader and Homer Simpson.

GEORGE LUCAS RAPED OUR CHILDHOOD

i'm not old i'm 37

Outrageous rebel lies. What's next? Alderaan was unarmed and peaceful? Your pitiful conspiracy theories have been debunked by experts and historians galaxy wide.

Lucas is all style and zero substance. There was absolutely no groundwork to Anakin losing his shit so much he’d murder kids in cold blood. Lucas put it in because “yah, look how evil he is now.”

Luuke

Lord Vader was simply defending himself from Jedi child soldiers.

Luke knows he's done WORSE. This is just the most visceral but Vader has had a hand in the murder of millions. But that's the thing with Redemption and Forgiveness, there isn't really too far so long as those involved are genuinely repentant and forgiving.

/Thread

in this case its not the biggest issue since he got burnt and stuck in a suit that is painful to wear almost 24/7, you would certainly age like shit under those conditions

there was a time when the Vong and Luuke were the only bad things about Star Wars

Fucking hell

I mean Anakin literally killed the most evil guy in the galaxy who was the cause of all that shit. He did somewhat redeem himself.

He came from a time where you smoked ciga from dusk to dawn, sunscreen didn't exist yet and it was considered cool to be out in the sun all day, so yeah, not entirely unsurprising

Nah the old EU had tons of retarded shit like Palpatine clones and invincible mini death stars. People routinely made fun of it.

extragalactic threat that justified every horrific thing the empire ever did as them trying desperately to prepare for invasion they knew was coming eventually

new republic violently shitting itself and freaking out since they do not have anything even resembling a security apparatus capable of repelling the vong

immediately lose billions of lives they are incapable of protecting in the most horrific torturous un-deaths imaginable

all ex-rebellion leaders realising what gigantic retards they are for not seeing the bigger picture of why a united and powerful humanity to protect the galaxy was utterly necessary

The Vong were a great plot twist.

oh sorry..
300 TRILLION deaths thanks to the new republic being worthless. Trillion. Wew lad, nice job rebels!!

Emps was constructing death stars at breakneck pace to fight those assholes since he knew they were coming.

Very cool plot IMO, poorly executed ofc but the implications from the storytelling perspective were absolutely peak.

At least it wasn't "canon" and you could just cherry pick Legends

extraglatic threat that justified every horrific thing the empire ever did as them trying to desperately to prepare for invasion they knew was coming eventually

except that along makes it a shit tier plot twist, because the empire was never made to be some le morally guy dudes, they were just power hungry retards willing to dick over others for the sake of power, made worse by the fact despite having the perfect propoganda tool for some reason they never once stated they were a thing, the vong is pretty much a hack writer who wanted to turn star wars into le grimdark setting while missing the point, best I can say is I would prefer that over disney wars buts that like say you would rather have fire piss than living with stage four giga cancer across your entire body

nope it was a great plot twist

why would the empire be building these clunky death stars as weapons of terror? you can kill a planet with a single star destroyer bombarding it for a couple weeks, so why something so extreme unless there was a specific threat it was designed to counter

-

and why would the upper echelon of imperial leadership want anyone to know a killer alien invasion was coming? it would mean mass chaos and migration

anyways I think it was a great plot since it highlights the problems with a galaxy wide power vacuum and weak leadership in the face of ultimate crisis

why would they

because then they could far more easily justify said actions, also migrate where, they are literally stuck in said place, and again it goes against what the empire was presented as especially in the movies, the vong are a prime example of le subversion for the sake of it, that helped to create shit like TLJ

So he had luke when he was 5 or what?
