>THE MAIN ANTAGONIST IS DEAD SO NOW EVERYTHING IS GRAVY LOLThis happens a lot in movies but, like, would the war in Ukraine suddenly end if somebody iced Putin, for example?
>>216523011It's because writers are hacks.
>>216523011Yes because russia is a cult personality dictatorship, so putin dying would he heavy blow to kremlin narrative>>216523445Kys
>>216523011Putin, no. Now Netanyoohoo?

>>216523011>would the war in Ukraine suddenly end if somebody iced Putinprobably
It probably would. Whoever his successor would be would instantly try to end the war, normalize diplomatic relations and throw Putin under the bus and say it was all his fault, in order to save face for their country being unable to finish a 3 day special military operation that after 4 years or however long they're up to now.
>>216523487You should probably refrain from having opinions on things.
>>216523639You should probably fist your own ass
>>216523011Yet chuddies seethed at the First Order being in control in the sequels….
Dramatically simplified explanations are preferable to realistic analysis because audiences are dumb and explaining how a government as large, complex and bureaucratic as the galactic empire wouldn't suddenly collapse with the death of one guy.Maybe in ages past, when the government was essentially a guy and his household, this could be true, but it's entirely context dependent.
>>216523639But he's right. CNN and Fox News told me so
It wasn't just the Emperor though. It was a massive military fuck up.The second Death Star got blown up along with all the senior personnel. An entire Super Star Destroyer was destroyed by a single A-Wing destroying into the command center.That's on top of the first Death Star getting blown up along it with all its experienced personnel.Vader was force choking high ranking officers to death for minor fuck ups in Empire Strikes Back.That loss of experience is eventually going to become an insurmountable hurtle.
It makes sense in the context of "Palpatine IS the government", because there's not even the pretext of parliament/the senate by the end of Episode IV, so presumably all the factions that make up the Galactic Empire make like a ceramic bowl that's been dropped and shatters into pieces because they're all grabbing power for themselves
>>216523011given how governments like Putins tend to wait until dear leader is on deaths door until they fully announce a successor, it would certainly cause enough political chaos, but then you have the problem of nation with a bunch of nukes might face a civil war which is the true nightmare scenario
The only thing keeping the military brass in line is the fear of Palpatine and Vader. Palpatine was so overconfident that he didn't even name a successor until he thought he could groom Luke into a new Emperor.
>>216523011Probably
>>216523612The people sucking off putin aren't dead and they choose who would replace him. So basically nuke Israel.
