Analyzing Evil: Darth Vader From Star Wars 

Man you are freakin awesome! Can't wait to see it! 👍🏾👍🏾🥇

Awesome! Do you think you might get into other TV fictional villains such as Gus Fring, Killer Bob (Twin Peaks), Negan, Joffrey or Ben Linus?

YEAAAAAAAH.

@@remainprofane7732 accurate.

I never really considered Vader evil even when I was a kid. I just viewed him as a guy just doing his job, albeit a rather unpleasant one. I mean, when running a galaxy-wide community, one needs a very firm grip on things.

@@Vigriff Vader definitely saw himself as that, too. He saw himself as someone who was carrying out his duties as the Emperor’s enforcer. Still, he knew that it didn’t excuse what he did and it’s pretty clear that he regrets turning to the Dark Side, especially the things he had to do in order to become a part of it.

@Anonymus X Meh, 😑. A guy with daddy issues because his daddy found a new favourite, is old hap. 😏😆

When you said "He was turned into an attack dog". Man, that....wow... I couldnt have said it better. Bravo

Poisened by immortallity, no more, no less, he is. He takes it for shure, and he rejects it. A lonesome of time, so many stars, so many galaxies, would anyone understand him?

The exact reverse of that quote could actually apply to the entire Jedi order. Something like: “The more one seeks to force destiny down one path, the more likely it is to take another”. They tried so hard to force Anakin to be the perfect Jedi, to change who he was as a person, that they actually managed to alienate him and push him away at every turn by ignoring his emotional needs, and finally led him to destroy the order itself. They created their own monster.

@@tommyl.dayandtherunaways820 Yes. They brought the end of the order without realizing it. Most died, while others survived to witness the rise of the Empire.

Totally agree. Similar to the Édipo tragedy: is to trying to avoid your curse, that you became the cursed itself.

"it's like poetry, it rhymes"

Bro king fu panda lowkey dropped absolute gems worth of quotes. One I always remember is “the future is a mystery, the past is history, but today is a gift and that is why it is called the present”

Wow...that's sad.

the dude literally impaled himself to kill the maul clone, and he cites himself as being the thing he hates giving him the strength to kill maul that's pretty metal.

Sums up Vader well. He hates the Jedi, hates Palpatine, and even hated the Sith and the entire galaxy, but he also hated himself the most. ROTS novelization also sums up his thought process when he discovered padme died.

you made me find this story it was so good !

And contemplate suicide almost daily.

In Legends my man was so fuckin broken; power wise and mentally...

I believe that's still in Canon like a lot of the stuff he does in the Vader comics ultimately just comes back to show that he was just a Broken Man

you forgot watching cooking videos on RU-vid and drinking himself (whisky) to sleep!

@@melonboi927 It's not. Canon Vader doesn't feel remorse or regret for his actions. As Lords of the Sith and the 2017 comics clarified, he felt fully justified in his actions to subjugate the Republic and destroy the Jedi. Anakin is the one who believed he needed to atone and wanted to die as penance for his crimes, but Vader's hate and will to live were too strong to overcome until Luke came into the picture.

Which was a lie. Vader loved himself more than anything, which was why he sacrificed everything so he alone could live.

@@BattleshipAgincourt lol

@@BattleshipAgincourt ??

@@BattleshipAgincourt Uh, Darth Sidious is next episode.

PROXY: "Ugh. I hate being him." Starkiller: "I think he does too."

altho it wasnt obi wan's fault, he wasn't supposed to be anakin's father figure, it was qui gon, killed on palpatine's orders who was, and he would have saved him from falling in my opinion. Anakin would never have needed a palpatine in his life.

​@Zaemoncho I was about to say the same thing

​@@Zaemoncho😊😊

​@@Zaemoncho And it's precisely why I have and always will view Qui-Gon's death as the most impactful death in the Star Wars universe, as when Qui-Gon died at Maul's hand on Naboo, that sealed the fate of the entire galaxy and especially Anakin, the Chosen One. Might be why the music that played during their duel in the Phantom Menace was titled "Duel of the Fates".

@@Zaemoncho I call bullshit here. It very much was Obi-Wan's fault. Had he used that force speedboost they had used to escape the destroyer droids earlier, he would have been there to keep Qui-Gon from being killed.

That's pretty sweet

@@KaminoKatie yeah, I think it was the author's attempt at showing the Skywalker in Vader, that his humanity wasn't totally lost to the dark side, and it's nice to see.

Ohhhh that story yeah i love that one!

@@mariosgamingmemechannel2033 it's one of my favorite legends Vader stories that I wish was canon

@@yadavragbir1208 Khan Maykr was the easiest fight ever.

Look at little Doom junior… gonna cry?

Oof

And also one of the cruelest movie villains of all time that I felt sympathy for and cried when he died because under all of that hatred was still a loving father.

Vader sacrificed all of his evil plans to save his son. Thanos sacrificed his daughter to save all of his evil plans.

And a mentor that lost his student

​​@@nont18411Thanos's plans were stupid and didn't make any sort of sense whatsoever .How long does he think that it would take for the universal population to reach the pre-snap levels ? No more than a few decades or atleast a 100 years at best .He himself is a being 1500 years old ,to him a century would have seemed like a decade or even less .Why doesn't he double or increase the amount of food or resources in the universe exponentially ? With the power of infinity stones he could destroy and reduce the universe to its individual atoms and recreate everything all by himself .He literally could create and destroy entire universes with thr infinity stones and yet he chooses the path of mass genocide .It really is only poor writing and it isn't anything deep ,his original goals were to get the intentions of his romantic interest 'Death' to take notice of him in the comics and it wasn't anything more than that .If he truly gave a shit about the universe and life he would have opted for much better and less genocidal ways . Whereas Vader's plans were only made in desperation to be with his son ,the last bastion and symbol of his wife ,Luke was all that was left of Padme in the galaxy .There was anything that he wouldn't do to be by his side .At the end he was so far gone that only his son could have reached Anakin and redeemed him

EXCELLENT WORK. THE VILE EYE 👁‍🗨 DARTH VADER TRAGIC AND THE MOST EVIL 😈

I always thought the British grammar construction of the line "I'll not leave you here" was so strange, being acted by a Californian, written by a Californian and a Floridian.

@@lwrncschmchr right? I was in middle school the last time someone used the word I’ll and not in the same sentence. Probably in a literature book.

Something interesting happens if you combine the 2 Prophecies of the Sith and Jedi which IMO is the same prophecy but incomplete with specific parts only give to the Optimistic POV of the recipient. The Prophecy of the Chosen One and the Sith'ari: A Chosen One shall come, born of no father, The Sith'ari will be free of limits, The Sith'ari will lead the Sith and destroy them, The Sith'ari will raise the Sith from death and make them stronger than before, and through him will ultimate balance in the Force be restored.

@@lwrncschmchr They are humans of the past its not weird

Someone should have told this quote to the Jedi Council much could have been avoided.

@@olliegodfrey482 They were told multiple times over several iterations during millennia of arrogance. During Jolee's time specifically, Vrook wouldn't hear anything of it and just accused everyone he could of falling to the Dark Side despite there being no trace of darkness on anyone he came into contact with. Once it got to the time of the prequels, Qui-Gon spent his entire life preaching this message to a deaf council and was forced to remain at a level of a Jedi Knight because of it. It's part of the reason Obi-Wan is canonically so strong - he was trained by someone who was stronger than most of the masters, ostracized along with Qui-Gon and was kept from advancing to the title of Jedi Knight until he was already stronger than almost every other Knight in the order.

Yes! Attachment to Padme didn't lead to his fall, the Jedi's bizarre and perverse way of life and total lack of empathy for a child not born into their system, combined with a brutally difficult life, combined with an evil man's machinations are what turned him. He deserves responsibility for his awful choices, no doubt, but attachment didn't break him, it saved him. Luke's recognition of this, and choice to embrace it, was a clear rebuke to the Jedi of old. The message of those 6 films, to me, is that the rejection of love leads to corruption, and embracing it heals what is broken.

I would like to add, He wasn't just a slave to the Sith, he was a slave to his anger, fear, and hatred.

Future (and as in this case, past future) slavery is the worst. _"The danger of the past was that men became slaves. The danger of the future is that men may become robots."_ -Erich Fromm

@@Nicholas_Chen_ who’s there?

@@senatorsheevpalpatine3712 It's the police ma'am.

Mace was right. Palpatine started a war and played both sides which amounted to millions of deaths and galactic wide destruction. He manipulated anakin since he was a child and did it again against Mace.

@@Jalenlane93 True, but maybe if Mace struck to the Jedi code and followed the rules instead of proving himself a hypocrite, Anikin would not have lost faith in the Jedi and stuck with them.

​@@Jalenlane93 point being mace windu confirmed palpatine was right even if he used the information manipulativly. When push came to shove the jedi were hypocrites and even the most devout would break their code if pushed. Had mace simply acted like a jedi in that moment palpatine wouldve been undone and the empire never rises

@UnholyWrath3277 Mace is still human at the end of the day he made a mistake. Palpatine caused a war, which resulted in galactic wide damage and millions of deaths. He is the ultimate evil, and Mace just witnessed him kill 3 other jedi.

@@Jalenlane93 it was a mistake. It just happened to be the most hypocritical and overall worst mistake of his life

Vader is the force's golden goose

This how people with borderline personality disorder struggle throughout their life.

i actually never even thought of that

I can see the psychological aspects of Anakin/Darth Vader. But I think he had spiritual problems too. Something the Jedi couldn't help him with. The loss of his limbs must've been a spiritual battle long after the wounds had healed. Darth Vader commited many evil deeds, when he imersed himself more and more in the dark side of the force.

I think Obi-Wan would, or thought that he would, but he felt very ashamed of that thought. That was the real tragedy. He truly loved Anakin but he was ashamed because loving him went agains the JC, so he never told Anakin, perhaps assuming that he knew anyway, while Anakin needed words and reafirmation due to his tragic past as a slave. This is taken from the ROTS novel, I don't care if Disney denies it is canon, I love that novel and it give us a lot of insight into the characters

@@AnzuBrief It's an amazing book

I think that is part of the theme of Star Wars once you get in the Original Trilogy. Luke going to Cloud City was the RIGHT course of action but was against everything the old Jedi stood for. Luke, by his actions, changes Obi-Wan and Yodi as well. I think by the end of ROTJ, they are starting to see how flawed the old order was. Luke was destined to start a new and better Jedi order that embraces positive feelings such as love when used in the right capacity. The Sequels kind of hint at this but ruin it with the entire Kylo Ren story. Sequels were kind of a disaster so I don't consider them cannon anymore.

@@AnzuBrief books based on the movies are canon, EU books are not

@@andrewft31 The Revenge of the Sith novelization is still Legends unfortunately. It was made with the Clone Wars Multimedia Project, The Clone Wars' predecessor, in mind (which is also unfortunately, Legends)

Yeah imagine the knowledge he knows of all the events that took place

his memory was wiped though, so he could not reveal the past

@@user-fe7iw6sd7x I believe it was C3PO that got his memory wiped post-Clone Wars, but R2D2 retained his memory

R2 was one of the biggest heros thruout the whole series.

At the same time, he’s the most vulgar too

Absolutely. Vader terrified me as a little 9-year-old girl in a dark theatre in 1977, & 45 years later he still scares me.

Exactly, even in Love. Ying Yang. Good in everything. Bad in everything. Its a perfect balance, but u can only choose one side. And that is the hardest and most vital decision of all

The right people didn't or couldn't help him.

@Taramafor Haikido Luke was only able to help Vader because he was biologically his family. The feelings that they had with each other were only possible due to two things that were similar between them: same upbring as a Jedi and blood bond. Leia, for example, was already too imerse into the Rebel's ideology to have a strong bond with Vader enough to bring him back, Luke wasn't.

@@reubenmorris487 Yes, but in their actions or lack of, his friends were already "helping" him to turn to the dark side. For example, you can feel Anakin's disappointment when he realizes how limited Yoda's knowledge is regarding his issues, even though he is the most powerful Jedi in the universe. Palpatine, on the other hand, pushed all Anakin's right buttons to look more mature than Yoda. A Sith proving to be more mature than a Jedi through the comprehension of Anakin.

Super honorable the way he murdered those children with extremely little hesitation

Nice analysis.

and from Obi-wan, Anakin lost his legs

@@Vizgar Okay. I laughed. I hate myself for it, but I wish I'd thought of that one.

And from his unborn child, Anakin lost his hope. However that hope came back in a unexpected way only to save him.

Beautiful summation of a complicated character.

Yeah, no one was able to make those lines work. It wasn’t Christensen fault that Lucas couldn’t write good dialogue.

He's an amazing physical actor, love his intimidating looks when he becomes Darth Vader. Kinda makes me wish for a live action "what if?" Type scenario, with Hayden Christensen as Vader post Mustafar, sans the suit

Exactly. Even though Vader is very intelligent and has a sophisticated way of speaking, he’s also kind of a man of few words and a lot of action. Vader can be polite, but he’s mostly very blunt. Which makes sense given he’s mostly a military man. He doesn’t feel the need to mince words or prattle.

Yeah. He knows that his actions resulted in his downfall and the horrible life he lives as Darth Vader, but believes he’s gone too far to turn back.

"What can you POSSIBLY hate enough to destroy me??" "Myself."

Yup Vader is man of self loathing

He’s a tragic villain because he literally had nightmares that he would lose everything but it’s too late for him because it was his fear that drove it into it happening

I’d rather have Anakin / Vader’s Empire compared to the Jedi .

Agreed. Anakin comments twice how Obi Wan is the closest thing to his father during Attack of the Clones, but it’s clear from the beginning to the end that it was more of an older brother looking after an orphaned boy due to a promise to his father rather than a direct choice. Obi Wan wasn’t ready for an apprentice and Anakin quickly latched on to Palpatine as a praising Father figure. Qui Gon was the perfect Jedi and the perfect one to train Anakin😔👌rip

This is so true. I will add, Obi Wan was fairly young himself. So he was practically given an adopted little brother to raise, while basically being a kid himself. Obi Wan did the best he could with what he knew.

Unfortunately Palpatine eventually filled that father roll.

@@danthemancushecan well so did mace windu you would think that anakin would dislike him but in truth the case is diffrent he actually looked up to him and yoda in a way it was what palpatine said when he meant about making a choice mace windu was everthing anakin wanted to be someone who controls his inner darkness and channels it and powerful enough to defeat palpatine or choose the dark side ov er it he did it for padme and you know how that turned out,

You cheeky little..... I love this comment so much x)

See. You got it right.

Internalized oppression, like what Fanon wrote about

Actually he ended up freeing everyone.

Ironically the empire outlawed slave rings

The galaxy was free and prosperous under empirical rule….

ArchDemonDemiurge, Wow! FABULOUS. Who wrote this? This is phenomenally deep and well written. There's a whole theory of the psychology of being evil implied and suggested, touched upon ...introduced... and opened up here. (When I was planning to go to grad school, one of the areas of focus I was seriously considering was Theories of Evil. Not out of a fascination with evil so much as a desire to bolster or Fortify good. THIS passage would be an EXCELLENT Example of a theory of the psychological causes of Evil and the psychological / subjective Experience of being evil. The Psychology Of Evil. How better to promote good than to understand what causes Evil. And if the Evil suffer from what they've become-- what better warning against the lure of evil. Or the power of evil to capture a soul unawares--in that flash of rage or selfishness.) Take action based on only your own self interest. Only your own feelings. You would even kill the one you love most. Becauyes in the moment that you're consumed by the dark side-hyphen-you love no 1 but yourself. Then the moment is over and now you are doomed with no 1 left but yourself. Let the shadow, I'm thinking this corresponds very well to the Union idea the shadow, Is the only thing left in existence that understands you and forgive you. Your own shadow is all you have left. The only companion. That! Is! Deep! If it were poorly written it would still be deep. But this was very well written! Beautiful. …So?... I need to know who wrote this…!…

@@judeannethecandorchannel2153 it's from the revenge of the sith novelisation, I believe it was written by Matthew Stover

@@SebasTian58323 Wow! I was just coming here to revise my comment. --The stuff about my ideas for great school should be near the end. But hey Thank You! The is the Second long passage from the Novelization that I've heard that's Knocked Me Out with how unique and well written it is. (The first one was...~"the dark side is always there, under the your chair, under the table at which you sit, under your bed sheets." That last image Scares me. It is eery. Like the monster under the bed. But it's the evil that will wrap around you when you slip under your sheets. 😬😬 Erry and even frightening. After that... it's in the sun light; it's under your feet... What intense images. In other words-- we're Surrounded by our capacity for evil. *That's*--damn. I would hate to view my reality that way. But it might be true--!?-- So I know the author is A Good Writer. But like I said above-- this passage isn't just good writing, it suggests a whole chain of ideas about How you turn evil, Why you turn evil, What it feels like to be evil, and what allows you to stay evil. (You think you have nothing left but your own dark side to understand and comfort you.) Wow! I've never read a Novelization. And I'm not really reading these days-- which is kind of shameful cuz I'm a writer. But of late I'm too much of beleaguered Cyborg to read! Instead I'm rubbing this phone with my finger so the time (swift typing I mean) 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️😄🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️. But This Novelization would obviously be one to read! Maybe I should buy it and leave it on a side table calling to me to "unplug and read an amazing book!" 🤭😄 Anyway--THANK YOU. What an amazing passage. And very thoughtful of you to answer my question.

@@orarinnsnorrason4614 Anakin had a choice to balance the force in solitude as shown in the CG Clone Wars series but if he didn’t then the universe would have a darker future.

They really did.

That was light..

Anakin to Yoda: "I'm afraid of someone I love dying" "fuckin get over it dude" Anakin to Palpatine: "I'm afraid of someone I love dying" "I've heard of ways to save people from death, wanna find it?" gee what side is someone going to choose?

@@NYG5" yes but at what cost anakin you're a good person don't do this." Padme amidala

Even then Anakin still did his duty and told Mace Windu that Palpatine was a Sith Lord, who immediately went on to exclude Anakin from the arrest even though being close to Palpatine he might have aided in resolving things peacefully and then decided to for no reason arbitrarily execute Palpatine completely disregarding Anakin’s pleas.

But if the Jedi weren't so dogmatic, there would have been no need for Anakin in the first place. He's a tool of the Force, remember? If there is no need to correct the Path of the Jedi then there is no need for Darth Vader thus Anakin would never have been born.

You can blame Yoda for that. Yet another of his many many failings.

That's probably one of the reasons Luke's New Jedi Order wasn't structured exactly like the Old Jedi Order. He wanted to learn from the mistakes of his forefathers, to which he did.

@@danielgiovanniello7217 The Jedi were too extreme, much like the Sith....two sides of the same coin.

@Dustin W Great analysis. The only way to achieve true balance is to embrace the dark as well as the light. The dark side isn't evil, it's evil people using it for their own lust for power.

What comic is this?

@@Domainz77 It's a Legends comic (Star Wars Tales #9) where a Dark Side cult made a doppelganger of Darth Maul who Vader fought. Vader was off-balanced in the beginning, but quickly overcame the vastly inferior Sith. The fake Maul taunted him with the quote the OP typed out, and Vader responded thusly.

If the comic was produced by Marvel its canon since Disney also owns marvel.

@@ReckOne559 I mean, yeah, but Disney has retconned a couple comics I believe (feel free to correct me if I’m wrong)

He seems to have multiple personalities

He feared and hated slavery/slavers instead of loving those who opposed it and tried to destroy slavery instead of supporting freedom. That, I believe, was his mistake.

George Lucas had nothing to do with the vast majority of stories that Vader appears in.

Eh he uses that to cover his lust for power. He always craved power but he at one point genuinely believed in the teachings of the Jedi and republic.

@Aquarium Gravel You are literally killing children? What do you mean how much do you "really love them".

To be fair, Anakin did kill children. So I can see why Obi-Wan left him to burn.

While both Yoda and Obi-Wan saw Vader as irredeemable by the time of RotJ, your claim that they hoped Luke would kill Vader without knowing the truth is wrong as shown by RotJ: Luke: "Unfortunate that I know the truth?" Yoda:"No! Unfortunate that you rushed to face him... that incomplete was your training. Not ready for the burden were you."

Still my favorite

I want to see vile eye cover Johan to see what he would say about the character

Masked man ?

I was not expecting to see you here bro

Me too ☺️

I hate Anakin/Vader to the core cause he murdered those innocent kids in cold blooded & he picked a old man(the Emperor) over his own wife which is so bad as a husband where he could of have pick her instead, And even he force choked his pregnant🤰 wife with their twins & that’s why I don’t feel sorry for Anakin/Vader whatsoever, Vader/Anakin is not a tragic character that other people think he is cause he chose the dark side by his own free will like he was not mind control, I am glad that Vader/Anakin ended up becoming the Emperor bitch ass slave for over 20 years until Luke free his bitch ass from his sugar daddy/master.

@@baileygilbert4766 Well Sidious killed his entire family for fun and didn't give it a second thought. Anakin was tormented by his actions even while he was Vader. And you can see by the look on his face before he's about to kill the Younglings he was not having a good time, he was following orders. He picked the emperor because he thought that would save her and when he thought she was dead, he went all-in with the emperor. Don't get me wrong Vader was an evil fuck but he was not pure evil, Sidious was pure evil. Taking over a galaxy for the purpose of inflicting suffering on trillions for personal enjoyment is pure evil.

Chaotic vs Lawful Evil

Evil is evil, greater, lesser...you know the rest.

In terms of just the film itself he does turn pretty quickly, which is what some people have an issue with. However, you have to take into account the overall story of the previous two films to see what Lucas was going for in building up to Anakin's fall.

@@Darthpsychonis Yeah most people don't seem to look into the context of the first two films, or sometimes even ROTS, when they don't mention how Anakin's views on the Jedi, goverment, and other things included his turn as well. Not just Padme's death.

@Taramafor Haikido Oooookay......

Totally agreed. Anakin's story which included the massacre of the tuskens shouldn't be overlooked.

@@chriswilson3126 Still the Tusken's did torture his mother and for what reason? They weren't civilized people like Mandalorian seems to show them as being. I wonder what the reason was for them taking her, tying her up and doing whatever they did because she has a lot of lacerations. I'm not saying how Anakin killed them was right but I feel like it wasn't unjustified. It's interesting to think about and then think about other heroes who have gone on revenge massacres.

Vader is the force's golden goose after all

“Hello everyone” 😂

The fact it synced with the saber igniting too is even better lmao

His Fallen Order cameo is one of his best appearances imho. He just straight up murders the final boss you just spent an hour and buckets of sweat and blood beating 2 seconds in, then throws a jedi master away with a flick of his wrist. If you even try running, you're insta killed.

Where are those transmissions you intercepted WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH THOSE PLANS?

You mean choking a terrorist to the galactic empire?

@@gamingwhacka1782 mmmmmmmm right you are, failed to quote I have....

Fine it is

Wy am I hearing Yoda??? Force ghost

Ah, yes🤣 "Hello everyone" "OPEN FIRE!" "Guys, no I'm just saying hell-oh, fuck it"

I've been so waiting on this.

@@redstaplerguyforlifepastpr5763 yeah me too.

Sad most people don't know cause it's "Star wars"

Me: (*snorts and pulls Cheetos dust stained one piece suit off of my bruised body* ) Babe wha- (*looks at the screen and the warmth in my cheeks slowly returns*) (*I slam my face into the screen*)

That makes the scene during The Empire Strikes Back all the more impactful long term.

yes, the older i get the more i understand villians, i no longer have those rosy color glass of a child anymore

yes because our planer is increasingly evil and controlled by tyrants that make us do things that are bad in order to survive

The impending sorrow of age begets regret; as it ever was, so too, can calcify to bone. Beware the shards.

Definitely.

I broke in middle school. I am constantly finding myself thinking of increasingly dark thoughts. The only thing keeping me grounded is my family. I don’t know where I’d be if I lost them.

Right and her leaving just set it I'm stone when they denied him being a master man I shocked he didn't quit too

Wrong, we are told exactly why he falls to the dark side in RotS: "I will do whatever you ask." "Just help me save Padmé's life. I can't live without her." Anakin falls because he decides to be selfish.

@@Fark2005 Yeah, only a Sith deals in absolutes, and THAT is why you're wrong ;)

@@RogueBoyScout I'm NEVER wrong ;P

@@Fark2005 The prequels make it seem quite sudden, but in the Clone Wars it's clearly a long and slow descent into the dark side.

Theres more than one way to skin a gundaark, just because Aniken turned evil doesn't mean that was the only path possible. Maybe he was actually meant to take Yoda's place? Someone claiming they need knowledge of both sides of the force is really just using that as an excuse to be evil, for their own reasons.

Perhaps people use their fear of something they don’t understand as an excuse for inaction under the guise of some superior sense of morality. Immersing yourself in evil is dangerous- likewise choosing to remain entirely ignorant of your opposition to place yourself higher on the totem pole is equally dangerous.

What a load of Crap!

Bro went crazy on that

I don’t think Kylo ren has enough of a character to analyze

@@jaybatt4507 No it's pretty spot on. Though I could care less about Kylo.

But then the movie wouldn't happen. lol

@@JadeDelphi Have you watched Marvel What If?

Late comment, but there's Star Wars Infinities, three stories, each a What If for the Original Trilogy. First one is "What if the Death Star didn't blow up?" Second is "What if Luke actually died on Hoth?" I...do not know what the third one is. But that's the closest to Star Wars What If that I know of. I don't think the two I read were very good but hey you might like 'em.

I very much want to, I might try and squeeze it in next month. But no promises.

Agreed.

@@TheVileEye Thank you for even thinking about doing it.

@@TheVileEye Even if you have to take a while to do it, I think its the sort of project that ought be done.

@@TheVileEye take all the time you need for it. Your work is amazing

I do.
