Does that version of Darth Vader pull out a Lightbelt to spank Luke for disobeying him?

    It was jut a light tap on his hand to teach him to not pick his nose.

    Anyway that didn't end well...

    I need the kids here to hear me now and belieeb me latah - Lucas had no idea he was going to make Luke & Leia siblings; as to whether Vader was somebody's father (yes German yes) - maybe

    After Star Wars blew up bigly, he ran back to the drawing board and squeezed out the first ever cinematic trilogy (that anyone who isn't a film buff knows of). That was all "fine" and "well".

    Until Phantom Menace. Oof. People. We had a problem. Then . . . Disney.

    Okay that's it. Here's the deal: There is ONE Star Wars movie (it was not called "A New Hope" FFS). That's all. The rest is fan fiction. Period. Yeah it's fun, sure have a good time but when you get to the fucking midichlorians or what the fuck ever - fuggedaboudit.

    I'd say Empire was fine because all details of how Vader was his father were missing so there's nothing to complain about. It only went downhill with Return of the Jedi. Making Leia his sister was bad for continuity. Then it went off a cliff with the prequels.

    Sometimes fan fiction takes an idea and does a better job, expanding it, fills in gaps, or simply goes places the author didn't even think of. Some can stray too far from the core but still have some valid contributions. Some take a single line and tell their own exceptional story.
