I love the Original Flavor Vader. Like, subsequent stuff made him ridiculous by giving him a backstory and world building and shit and I love it, but just imagine

He’s the Emperor’s goth Space Rasputin who you all have to let hang around, even though he’s really killing the vibe, has absolutely no real authority over any of you (Tarkin is the one giving the orders!), and likes to spew vague threatening mantras while you try to strategize and shit. None of you know where he comes from, Darth may or may not be his real name, and that religion he likes to lecture you about is Extremely Illegal

So one day you tell him his esoteric dying faith–that, like, two old men and a twink from Desert Bumblefuck still take seriously–is old, weird, and not as powerful as your fash wetdream planet-destroying laser–and also kinda useless, dude, it hasn’t exactly fixed that Rebel Problem you have going on

Unfortunately, he is also a seven-foot-tall laser-sword-wielding robot wizard of death, so in response to this, he gets mad and chokes you out with his mind

Your other boss (Tarkin, is Probably In Charge) treats this like it’s normal and tells both of you to play nice while you make sure your trachea is intact and The Magic Death Cyborg sulks in the corner because he wasn’t allowed to murder the non-believer

Jedis being illegal actually is not mentioned in original recipe star wars so it’s not even that his religion is illegal from that perspective he’s just like if the dude who still believes in Zeus was right that Zeus is real

The fact that that is the most concrete example that the Force is real in the first movie too is inspired. Everything else could plausibly be explained as mind-over-body shenanigans, even Obi-Wan’s dodgy bullshit, but Vader getting ticked off at his coworker committing a micro-aggression and treating his neck like a soggy towel? No explaining that away. That’s just straight up magic.

Flawless decision. No notes.

The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural, such as being able to shut up that annoying guy in the work meeting.

I often think about the first time that I met you. […] It was immediately apparent to me that I was meeting someone truly special and not just as an actor but as a person and that I was meeting a friend. A friend who would later go on to chop off both my legs and leave me for dead on the side of a volcano but I guess I kinda had that coming. — Hayden Christensen

the difference in personality between the three droids I love in star wars is so funny

Bd-1: Sweet, loving,helpful cal needs anything he comes a running

R2: “Anakin that dumbass told me to go get something but he’s a fucking idiot so i’m going to do it my way and save his ass”

Chopper: Hera put me in timeout because I killed a ship full of people >:( she hates me.

 clone wars constantly yo-yos between “no matter how fair the government claims it is, it will always become corrupt by corporate greed” to “check out this cool spaceship” to  “companies are willing to sell potentially dangerous resources to a desperate population if it means more profit” to “this space wizard just threw a rock with their mind and cut it in half with a laser sword how sick is that"  and I think that’s wonderful

this one episode starts with a monologue about how criminals  exploit the fear of the masses during wartime for personal gain and then it immediately cuts to C3P0 planning a brunch

I still can’t believe they went from this in Attack of the Clones (2002) to this in The Acolyte (2024) even though they’re both portraying Mirialan Jedi Masters.

Vernestra looks like they just slapped some green make-up and some eyeliner dots on the actress and called it a day. It’s awful, especially since she has so many close-ups. Twenty-two years ago they made Luminara look like an actual humanoid alien, with beautiful details in both costume and make-up. Even though she's basically a background character, she looks so much more natural as a Jedi.
