Beeez posted:It's also worth noting that Vader doesn't actually kill a subordinate until he finds out Luke is around. While it could have happened off-screen before that point, I've always thought it was a sign of his greater emotional investment in his mission in Empire in comparison to the original, and in contrast to his sense of resignation in Return. I'm pretty sure it's the other way around. The first time he doesn't kill a subordinate for failure is at the end of TESB with Piett, and that's because he's so distracted by his emotional investment in Luke. It's a major turning point. On the commentary I believe either Lucas or Kershner specifically state that this is his "C-3PO disassembled" moment, where the person he was is completely blasted apart and he's left to pick up the pieces and try to put himself back together.

I never knew how badly I needed to see someone reading Force power levels off a clipboard to a crowd. There are a lot of people in Star Wars who should be walking around with clipboards. Also I thought Star Tours closed but I guess I'm way behind on the times and they just replaced it with an updated one. NOT MY STAR TOURS.

thrawn527 posted:The new canon explanation is that Tarkin and Vader are both semi-equal and basically both "second" in command to the Emperor, just over different aspects of the Empire. Tarkin was lead man in charge of the Death Star, so his command took precedence there. Tarkin dying is one of the main reasons Vader has near complete control of the Empire in ESB. There is no more check on his power, other than the Emperor, who remains largely "hands off". I always took it as Vader being Palpatine's muscle more than anything. He was a pit-bull on a leash to be aimed at problems that required his particular abilities. Dealing with politics and bureaucracy wasn't one of them. So he's instructed to back Tarkin up, to be the visible and intimidating face of the Emperor when he couldn't be present.

Ror posted:Also I thought Star Tours closed but I guess I'm way behind on the times and they just replaced it with an updated one. NOT MY STAR TOURS. They update it periodically. There's sequences in it based on TFA. For being an old motion simulator, it's pretty good. That actually is one thing I look forward to at the new Star Wars park. The new Avatar ride is loving dope, and I imagine they've got something even better cooking for Star Wars land.

Clearly Rey has some reason to seek out Luke, wouldn't having someone there to question her motives be a good thing? It feels kind of like the writers weren't sure how to cap off Finn's arc or his friendship with Rey so they just kind of punted.

Beeez posted:I mean that he never does that in A New Hope. So he kills his subordinates when he's obsessed with meeting Luke, but then once he actually does and fails to join forces with him he no longer has that rage. He tries to choke Motti to death and only stops because Tarkin tells him to. He also chokes Captain Antilles to death at the beginning. Darth Vader doesn't need angst about a long-lost son to want to go around angrily choking people to death. Dude's just a strangler, it's his natural state of being. It's also worth noting that finding out that he has a son isn't even the event that really screws him up emotionally. It affects him a little bit, but he's actually very quickly able to assimilate this new knowledge into his identity as Darth Vader. "So I have a son? Great. I can take advantage of his attachment to me to recruit him over to my side and use his power to help me overthrow the Emperor. Then I can finally be the Emperor!" His offer of ruling the galaxy as father and son is a cynical ploy. The thing that really blasts him apart, identity-wise, is the fact that he fails to turn Luke--that Luke chooses to commit suicide rather than join him, and then manages to escape with his friends. None of that fits with the worldview he's constructed for himself as Vader, and he doesn't know how to process it. That's the first time a real crack in the armor starts to show.

Yeah, Rian asking JJ to swap R2 and BB was if nothing else correcting a really dumb mistake. I hope all the Rey and Luke island training is intercut with R2 slowly but surely getting up the stairs, and when he finally gets to the huts, it's time for them to go. R2 sighs and looks at the camera. Iris wipe.
