Did he ever feel any remorse for killing all those people?
>>214355382these movies are made for kids. don't think, just buy toys, lil Jimmy
>>214355382He was just following orders.
>>214355382>starslopgrow up

>>214355382Nazis are not people.
>>214355382They were CIS wh*te males so no
USA killed something like 200k civilians in the Iraq war and nobody seems to care. Israel is doing a genocide right now and....... nobody seem to care. I really doubt people change much just because it's a space war.
>>214355382he was fighting a war, they were trying to kill him and all his allies
Those were people? I thought they were robots.
>>214355488>USA killed something like 200k civilians in the Iraq warLiteral massacres or collateral damage?>Israel is doing a genocide right nowHamas could surrender today and Israel would have no just reason for bombing the place where the enemy combatants live
>>214355488
>>214355382After the Death Star just massacred billions and was about to do it again? Why?
>>214355488>Israel is doing a genocide right now and....... nobody seem to care.>t.
Darth Vader's redemption doesn't work in a world where Christianity doesn't exist.The reason why we are able to have our sins forgiven is because Jesus spilled his own blood to cover our transgressions, as long as we repent.Vader may regret the atrocities he commited, but he cannot atone for his murders on his own, he cannot redeem himself just by saying "sorry". That's like committing genocide, and at your trial you say "sorry" to the judge. Is the judge going to let you go scott free? No, that is why Vader needs to believe in the Son of God so that JEHOVAH can extend his mercy upon him.
>>214355524who are you guys trying to convince at this point? yourselves i guess lol i hope you get paid by the post
>>214355488>Israel is doing a genocide right now Why do palestinians care if they're supposed to go to heaven with 72 virgins when they die?
>>214355382The death star just blew up a whole planet filled with civilians and shit. In comparison, the death star is purely a military battlestation.
Do you think there might have been any children on the death star when it blew up? I mean it was the size of the moon and the storm troopers weren't clones they probably had families. There were women on board too, chances are atleast one of them got knocked up on the death star. I'm just gonna say it Luke probably killed atleast a handful of children.
>>214355406Actually when it came out there were no toys, and it took a year for toys to start tricking out.
>>214355557Yeah, nobody cares except for very few mohamedan homosexuals from western colleges
>>214355604>implying the empire would allow wives and children of stormtroopers to live on the death star, their most valuable military asset
>>214355604Definitely in legends lore
>>214355654The gaslighting doesn't work anymore moshe.
>>214355382Live by the blaster, die by the blaster
>>214355559That was actually one of the things that ruined the prequels. Once they dropped the mystical/religious stuff for things like mediclorians, it took away what made the OT special.
>>214355488You triggered the IDF
>>214355437>>214355459>>214355472I'm glad that you are going to die unloved and alone

>>214355559>Darth Vader's redemption doesn't work in a world without desert bullshitLmao sure.>our transgressions I never sinned in my life.

>>214355961>I never sinned in my life.What's your BMI?
>>214355488you know that the most funny thing is. Western liberals care more than other muslims, making them the ultimate cucks.
>>214355988Exactly what I want it to be. What does your desert demon says about 'BMI' in your desert bullshit book?
>>214355961Yes you do. We all fall short of the glory of God. That is why Jesus came. To take upon himself the wrath of his Father that we deserve. But if we reject him, then we will undergo the everlasting punishment that we merit.Since none of this exists in the Star Wars universe, Vader must receive the penalty: everlasting death.
>>214355661You don't think the largest space craft in the entire galaxy would have more than one use? It could've been used as some kinda of ferry or a repair station for smaller imperial ships. Just saying, there were more thqn likely a couple ofnkids in board at the very least.
>>214356108>Just saying, there were more thqn likely a couple ofnkids in board at the very least.Who the fuck cares, anon. If you take a kid on a aircraft carrier while it goes on combat mission, ifs your fucking fault if it dies. How do you think this works? The empire giving Yavin a call like "Yeah, we want to murder you all, but please dont fight back :))) "
>>214356032>Exactly what I want it to be.Gluttony is a sin, fatty.
>>214356079>Yes you doNo, I don't. Nice subscriptions racket your desert demon runs there.

>>214356414>confirmed desert swarthoidOof.
>>214355472>They were CIS wh*te malesActually the remnants of the CIS were with the rebels
How is Israel committing a genocide?
No... because they were going to blow up Yavin 4 like a minute later when the laser got in range.
>>214355382I know i wouldnt. Get fucked

Did Tarkin feel bad after eradicating 2 billion Alderaanians about 9 hours earlier?
>>214355382Of course not. If it had been an immoral act, The Force wouldn't have worked in the first place.

>>214358123So are the brits supposed to be sad about the fag cleaning toilets on the Bismark, right after they sunk the Hood?
>>214358123How is that my problem again? Shouldnt have taken a job at the military. Should have stayed home. Rest in piss.
>>214357697>this one picture is better than anything that Disney has presented since 2012How did this happen?

>>214355382>jUsT kIlL yUr dAD bRoYoda & Ben were real bastards, and Luke rejects them too in the Throne Room.
>>214355382The first thing you do in conflict is dehumanize your opponent; they're either too evil to let live or too destructive to remain in society. You can see it in our current political climate right now. Both sides dehumanize each other to absurd degrees, it's like children arguing on the playground most of the time... it's embarrassing to witness.
>>214358388Darth Vader wasn't Luke's dad and the emphasis on their genetic relationship as their primary motivations ruins their respective characters.
>>214358171>>214358224>hasn't seen Clerksfucking zoomers I swear
>>214358507So Uncle Owen was his daddy? He sure got over his dad's death pretty quickly. And Aunt Beru's rape and murder too
>>214355382I've never heard it addressed. Probably not in the short term. But in the long term he became a recluse drinking green tiddy milk and getting beat up by untrained girls, so possibly.>>214357016>>214355472They were not CIS/former CIS, most Imperials were humans from core worlds, and there was anti-alien sentiment in imperial institutions, hence why most of the imperials we see are human. The rebels deliberately didn't work with CIS remnants because of the separatist associations, they were an alliance to restore the republic and didn't want to taint it with separatism, and the bad reputation of the CIS.>>214355488It's a star wars thread so this is fiction, da jewz can't hurt you here, glad I could help lil buddy
>>214355382>Jedi>feelThose sociopaths never mourn those they murder. Loss and the grief one feels at it is the realm the Sith inhabit.
>>214355604>I'm just gonna say it Luke probably killed atleast a handful of children.like dad, like son
>>214358554Yeah, that shit was weird. I mean his reminscing against the sunset is the best shot in the entire franchise, but it was kinda weird he never even references them later as he matures.Whatever. It's a poorly written, stitched together trilogy with the illusion of continuity and character development.
>>214358565>But in the long term he became a recluse drinking green tiddy milk and getting beat up by untrained girlsAnon, disney fan fiction isnt canon
>>214357697his Force Speed (TM) was on cooldown
>>214358641Look anon I obviously also prefer the version where he married a smoking hot redhead and fights a hot bitch with a lightsaber whip. But in the long run, nobody will remember or care about that material.
>>214358733>>214358641You're both kind of right. It's true that the EU doesn't matter anymore outside of pretending that it's more like an alternate timeline. But the way the fanbase instantly forgot about the sequel trilogy and majorly pretends that it never happened shouldn't be ignored either. The Disney execs must know about the sentiment among fans, otherwise they wouldn't completely ignore the sequels for the last 5 years and wouldn't "delay indefinitely" the Rey solo movie. Delayed indefinitely is a corpospeak for cancelled when they don't want to outright say it.
I rewatched ANH the other night, the de-mastered version.It is a good movie. Not really much beyond that. Star Wars became this big as a franchise 100% because of Lucas' insanely whorish marketing and due to the video games.
>>214358665>h-he's fast!
I wouldn't feel guilty in Luke's place. The Death Star was going to destroy Yavin VI and everyone on it. Negotiating with the empire was not possible. Surrender would not spare the lives of the people on Yavin IV. They did not have enough time to evacuate before the Death Star appeared. The Empire had already destroyed a planet full of innocent people for no other reason than to punish political dissent from the planet's leadership and to demonstrate their ruthlessness. Thus we can safely assume the rebels had every right to feel their destruction was immanent, and that if they did nothing they would all perish much the same way the people of Alderaan did. So their choices were clearly two main options: first, they could do nothing and meekly accept annihilation. Second, they could resist and try to prevent their destruction by incapacitating the death star, or destroying it. The death star was a fortress filled with imperial soldiers and bristling with weapons, and despite having the plans to the death star the rebels could find only one weakness in its defenses which if exploited would cause the entire station to explode.Therefore the only way to survive was to destroy their enemies in turn. Perhaps a pacifist would've been content to simply let the empire destroy him instead of destroying in order to survive, but Luke was not a pacifist and neither am I. I will kill if doing so will preserve my life.Now, even given all of this above, Luke was not the one who made the decision to destroy the death star and condemn its millions of staff and garrison soldiers to death. That decision was made by the rebels' leadership, without consulting Luke's opinion on the matter, and he was simply handed orders for the ensuing battle for all of their lives. During the course of the battle, it was pure chance (or Force destiny w/e) that led to Luke being the one to take the fatal shot that destroyed the death star and everyone in it. If not him, another might've done it.
>>214358873This happened with the prequels as well though. Boomers rejected them, but children attached to the supplemental material, which kept the franchise profitable. The issue is nobody under like 40 is emotionally attached to the EU. So it's completely dead, while the sequel era is just undesirable. Right now they're trying to pivot people onto new settings in the universe, like kotor did with video games in the 2000's.
>>214355524>Literal massacres or collateral damage?Collateral damage. The initial military campaign in Iraq was a massive carpet bombing campaign that totally destroyed the Iraqi military, along with a lot of Iraq's civilian infrastructure, and the civilians along with it. Those who did not die in the immediate carnage died from the shortages of food, water, and medical treatment that followed.
The Last Jedi was a shitty movie, but a natural progression for Luke Skywalker's character. People who thought he was going to be some wise sage who rode off into the sunset are political idealists who missed 100% of the subtext of Return of the Jedi.
>>214359161>Right now they're trying to pivot people onto new settings in the universe, like kotorBecause at least the prequels had some interesting ideas even though those ideas were presented in shitty, cringy way with Lucas being an autist who can't write actual human dialogue and doesn't understand the flow of a dialogue. And at least the prequels had a vision and creativity behind it. Meanwhile, the sequel trilogy is a bonafire atrocity with nothing memorable about it, it doesn't even have a good meme collection except "REEEEEY", "Somehow Palpatine returned" and "They fly now". And even then, those memes only exist to remind people of how shitty the sequels were.
>>214358388I really don't get the latter angle that the Jedi were always doing the right thing when the original trilogy ended with everything going well because Luke listens to literally none of the other force users in 6
>>214358873When Disney bought Star Wars there was no danger of the franchise losing relevance because Lucas had done such a good job marketing to kids. Namely, to boys. With the prequels and video games in the early 00s Lucas had purchased another 20 or so years of cultural clout for Star Wars and another crop of lifelong fans. Lucas was content to mainly target men and boys because they had proven over decades to be loyal and lucrative supporters. Disney, however, saw these lifelong supporters and the appeal to young boys as baked-in and not something they had to actively maintain or work for. They took it for granted that they had the male audience, and believed they could do whatever they wanted to the franchise to win over girls without scaring men and boys off the reservation. So now Star Wars has a problem that Lucas had solved 20 years ago: it's no longer appealing to kids, not even boys, who were its mainstay 20 years ago. Far from growing the audience, Disney has caused the future of Star Wars to be uncertain. They have no crop of boys who will grow into lifelong fans. In 20 years there might not be any more fans of Star Wars than there are right now, in fact there might be less. Disney's main concern right now is how to win back kids, and that means how to win back boys. But Disney does not have a good track record with winning a male audience. That is the whole reason they bought Star Wars in the first place.
>>214359489Not really sure it's one way or the other. On the one hand, the Jedi got fucked by doing what they were doing, on the other Luke sells out his friends and the population of the galaxy for the chance at... redeeming some random mass murderer... huh? Then he just kind of acts like a detached weirdo staring at his imaginary "friends" and seems unable to relate to his actual friends and celebrate their victory (emphasis on theirs, because he did nothing) the same way he did in A New Hope.Call me crazy but I get the impression that using the force at all while simultaneously gaining power and celebrity just turns you into a creepy asshole, regardless of which side of the cult you fall on.
>>214359526The leftist woke Disney execs seem to miss how boys and girls work entirely. They want SW to appeal to girls, but they either too ideologically compromised or just plain stupid to realize that the core audience for SW will always be boys, and those girls that the universe appeals to would've become fans in any case. It's just simple reality that boys and girls tend to connect with different things and even though some girls like Star Wars, but the core audience is male and will always be male. Ironically, by alienating their core male audience, Disney also risk alienating that female minority of fans who are fans of the universe without being pandered to.
>>214359829The goal was to demoralize boys and take away their heroic cultural icons
>>214355382>>214358577He didn't like that he caused so much death, but knows that it had to be done.Luke, at least in the EU, is pretty pragmatic about killing: redeem those you can, but eliminate any that would threaten innocents.
>>214359438I like the prequel setting and think the story is good, just executed poorly on screen. Lucas got to overindulge himself and be an eccentric billionaire. And the feature film trilogy format didn't line up with the scope of the story. But he's a boomer so it's all he knew and the big miniseries format hadn't taken off yet. I agree the sequels suck and there's no potential there. Nobody's ever going to give a fuck about Rey. But they're not going to scrap that setting over it. If anything they will just leave it alone until they make something people like in that era and it gets the ahsoka tano treatment.
>>214358388The point is they were wrong, and it's why Luke is a better Jedi than them

>>214360132>I like the prequel setting and think the story is good, just executed poorly on screenI've recently rewatched some of the prequel scenes and have come to the same conclusion. It could've been a truly brilliantly made story in the hands of a solid, competent director and a good screenwriter. Unfortunately, Lucas is infamous for being an idea guy, not the execution guy and has to be checked constantly by people who surround him, he can't be left to be surrounded by yes-men which was what happened with the prequels.I'd kill to see the prequels story as an Andor-style political thriller.>>214360254But the racism possibilities are so endlessHuman females...uh, disgusting - said the male human.
>>214358123The Clerks cartoon has this argument.
>>214360289Chudwin's Law.
>>214355382I swear to God, in the very first Battlefront II trailer, there was a scene of the Stormtrooper lady pointing a gun at Luke and yelling at him that a million people died on the Death Star. Luke just solemnly said 'I know'.Luke is connected to life, and a compassionate person. The weight of what he did was terrible, but he chose to take that weight to prevent greater loss.
>>214361203>million people died on the Death Starwhat did they eat?
>>214355524>where the enemy combatants liveLike the entire strip? Kek
>>214355459I agree! national socialists are not people and neither are any other type of socialist. have a nice day!

>>214358636Lucas never envisioned Vader to be Luke's father or Leia to be Luke's sibling. Leia kissing Luke proves it. Lucas later made it as such because he was subverting expectations and also desperately trying to make SW more profound and grown up. He didn't want to be only remembered as a peddler of children's toys.
