Anakin Skywalker has ALWAYS been Anakin Skywalker.
What I mean by that is I see a large volume of fans in RL and on Reddit that treat Anakin/Vader as two separate beings. This idea that "Vader was inside" or "Anakin is inside Vader" when the reality is that they are the same being.
I am not talking about folks engaging in conversations about the duality of the force within Anakin. Or when folks use Anakin vs Vader as a shorthand for talking about events within the context of said event.
I am talking about folks that literally think that Vader and Anakin are NOT the same being. Folks that say things like "Anakin would never 'X'", when the reality is that Anakin is inside the suit calling the shots, even after donning his Sith name. Yes, most of the Star Wars galaxy thinks Anakin is dead but WE aren't in that galaxy. We as fans know that Anakin is/was alive post Clone Wars. We know who is under the armor.
We even see in the Marvel comics, the Light and Dark sides within Anakin post "transformation". They aren't two separate beings vying for power. It's one being, Anakin, at war with the light and darkness within himself.
It seems to be the general consensus that Jedi turned Sith like Anakin, Dooku, Revan and Jacen Solo are generally stronger as Sith than those who were trained as Sith from the beginning like Maul, Malgus etc. Is this true? and If yes why?
The Mortis Gods were depicted as finale, with Baylan supposedly looking after them. Some of you said Abeloth will come. I think that Ezra and Lothal temple will be in the answer with thr Bendu. I disliked most of Disney series, including Ahsoka, but i loved Rebels and curious about Ezra return and the ones clip.
Ezra has really plenty of potentials to becone great in the force and he got that chance when he gone exiled. Especially in Ahsoka he said he no longer needed a lightsaber, but then we see him using it and even crafted a blue one. He has so much potential and time to meditate and practice with the force in exile. Kinda a waste
What future animated Star Wars projects would you like to see outside of the era between Ep III and Ep IV?
I personally would love to see some adventures between Ep IV and V. While rewatching Rebels, it occurred to me that it'd be pretty easy to have a scene showing Luke training using some of the general recordings Anakin made for lightsaber techniques. I would love to see something like this where Luke builds a respect for Anakin and idolizes him, making the "I am your father" reveal and eventual redemption even more impactful.
I know this question probably has been asked and I went through these posts to find it but home come when someone gets stabbed they don't slide down onto the lightsaber cutting them in half or at least how doesn't it cut them more than just the one hole?
It was during the Jedi Purge, so for 12 hours, all Jedi crimes were legal!
As a reminder, these are his last words;
"Brother. I'm an unworthy apprentice. I'm not like you. I never was."
At first, it sounds like he regretted never reaching the level of his brother. But could he also be revealing a truth that he may have been ashamed of? That his physique and his force sensitivity was given to him by the Night Sisters instead of being naturally gifted unlike Maul?
I could be wrong since I haven't watched all episodes of TCW. So for all I know, Maul might have found out sooner.
Any thoughts?
For those that are planning on going, When? I'm seeing tickets for May 3rd but also showtimes on May 4th. I want to go when more people are going to be there, so what's the General (Grievous) vibe
I found these unopened pack while going through my room. Any info on them would be nice.
I'm not saying this will happen, but I'd be pretty surprised if The Bad Batch didn't at least let Omega meet Boba. After all, Daniel Logan returned to voice a Clone cadet in an earlier episode and it makes sense to have Omega discover her genetic brother at least once. I could maybe see Clone Force 99 letting Omega go with him for her safety, or providing a surprise escape from them off Mount Tantiss. But this does feel like wishful thinking, especially if the finale doesn't go over 30 minutes. What do you guys think?
I love starwars so much; the epic story, the cool battles with laser weapons, interesting crestures and characters. However, I am ceaslessly amazed by the amount of plot holes in it. Any other film/franchise would topple with the errors that starwars has but somehow it gets away with them. Creating this paradox of overlooking the holes.
Eg: Jedi's can force heal, but thats why Anakin turned to the dark side. To heal Padmé.
The Darth JarJar theory which has been all but confirmed by Matt Lucas in an interview and they decided to change direction because of fear for fans opinions. So just change a major plot line last minute , creating holes.
Darth Vader didnt recognise C3P0 and R2D2 in the empire strikes back.
Rey.
Again in Empire Strikes back; ObiWan says Yoda trained him. The in Phantom Menace Quai Gon Jin is introduced. (Love Quai-Gon and liam neeson was fantastic. But still, plot hole.)
The list continues.
What is the biggest plot hole you have FORCED (pun intended) yourself to overlook to continue enjoying the franchise?
Please explain it to someone that doesn't know Star wars, I naturally watched all the movies the mandalorian and boba Fett, I know a bit of the lore but not much, I just started survivor and it's incredible, I really do not know why I haven't played before
Hi, Im looking for a star wars video game where I can destroy the death star in an x wing. Any recommendations? (can be on pc or console)
From 1-6 only. So many dank memes
To give some needed context, I’m writing a story and in that story, my main villain is planning an attack on an Imperial Planet, let’s say Alderaan, and his method of attack is to use the aging remains of several Separatist war ships. Munificents, Recuscants, Lucerhulks, etc. The ships are being operated by a droid crew, but the fleet itself is not so big that it could take over the planet, but big enough to gain attention.
I just wanted to double check to see how probable a scenario like this could be during the reign of the empire, about 5-3 BBY. I know that during this time, many Separatist ships would have been dismantled and scrapped, no doubt the same for the droids. All I’m asking is it feasible for something like this to happen or capable of happening?
I like how Nemik sought to match the Empire's political power and military might by underlining the limitless frontier of the Rebellion, and how a random act of insurrection can send shockwaves across this frontier that stretches across the galaxy. No moment of defiance is too small to make a difference against the tyranny of the Empire.
Nemik is the perfect ideologue against the Empire, but I wonder how well he would fare as an ideologue for a galaxy after the fall of the Empire. He speaks of freedom being spontaneous and occurring without instruction, but how can this be harnessed for a New Republic that would have to walk the tightrope between freedom and authority (as we saw in The Mandalorian and Ahsoka)? How can freedom towards positive ends flourish if authority is brittle and one single thing can break the siege? If Nemik was still alive by the time of the New Republic, would he rebel against it, though it might be the best defence against the Imperial Remnants, or defend it, possibly sacrificing his principles in the process?
This has been on my mind for a while so I'd like to hear what you think.
Seen at my local grocery store.
I’m probably getting Anakin and Obi-Wan in a separate tattoo so who do y’all think would be best?
