The Solo kid being named Ben has always (meaning less than 2 years) hinted at Luke's heavy involvement in his life from the beginning. He's been under a lot of pressure his whole life

Yaws posted:Boba Fett? He hardly qualifies. You're applying decades worth of fan service to him. Qualifies for what? Do you have dementia? You were trying to make a point that Pulpatine had a "notably undignified" death. I don't know what fan service has to do with anything. Did fans demand Boba Fett stumble into Goatse.cx?

When I was a kid I thought Yoda was a human being and that's just what a human being would look like if they were so good with the Force that they lived to be 900 years old. I also thought the Emperor since we get to see him in person Return of the Jedi was like a few hundred years old.

Davros1 posted:Anyone else annoyed that Han and Leia named their son after: "Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope" - someone who had never met Obi-Wan? I mean there's a plot hole there due to the first film being written before things like "Obi-Wan had spend Luke and Leia's entire life on Tatooine," but evidently at some point he met Leia or something.

Palpatine was in the middle of literally toasting the movie's main hero and Jesus character, and got interrupted when the single most impressive supervillain ever had a faceturn and Gorilla Pressed him down a bottomless pit in a storm of lightning. Undignified my rear end.

Much love, SMG, but calling Palpatine "cool" is a sign you've officially lost touch with what "cool" is.

On the other hand, Sheev "I am the Senate" Palpatine is easily the most well-known and loved character in all of star wars

Especially given that she leads with "years ago you served my father in the clone wars and he begs you to help him again". That always made me assume that not only had Leia not ever met him, Bail hadn't actually seen him in person since that last scene of RotS

The Star Wars radio drama (posted in this thread) and Rogue One are of various levels of canon and relevance to a movie made in 1977, but the former has a few scenes in the royal court of Alderaan where Bail is telling Leia to find and recruit Kenobi, a Jedi he used to know. Obviously, it doesn't add much to what is shown in Leia's video in the movie, but it seems like she doesn't know him personally, just has been briefed on him. On the other hand, when Luke busts her out of jail, he says he came with *Ben* Kenobi, and she yells "BEN KENOBI?!" and is totally with it. I always thought that was a bit of a mistake in writing, but thinking about it now, my head canon says that she is reacting in a "what the gently caress have you guys done, you brought the wrong Kenobi"

Would make sense; that's when the first full trailer premiered for TFA, along with tickets going on sale. Incidentally, a goon from this thread alerted me when tickets went up a little early and I got mine before all the ticketing websites went to poo poo and all. If the same happens this year, I'll be rewarding whoever makes sure I get get tickets with some kind of forums upgrade. Because Star Wars is very important to me.

I just can't buy that a mal-adjusted goon would grow up to be a Galactic rear end in a top hat who tortures his daughter and cuts off his sons hand. Anakin should have been more like Issac Hayes in shaft imho.

Palpatine is really good in Return of the Jedi. Absolutely iconic performance. It's really the perfect voice anything, like say, reading What Happened in, for example. You abdicated your responsibility as a citizen at the worst possible time! \
