As a former Walmart employee I can say we used to get iPads straight from our supplier, shrink wrapped and everything, that would have rocks in them. Sometimes they just come like that b/c someone at the shipping center or factories are stealing them.

You. You're the reason foreigners don't like Americans. You are the ugly stereotype.

What a logically fallacy. That’s not even close to the same thing. Just because you found an unrelated image on the internet doesn’t suddenly make you “correct”. Nice try.

The Soviet Union gave this medal to “Mother Heroines” that gave birth to 10 or more children between 1944 and the collapse in 1991.

It gradually changed as the Empire arose between the prequel and old trilogy. The clones aged quite fast compared to normal. You see this in both the Canon Clone Wars show and Rebels. Main clone characters during the Clone Wars were in their 60s before the OT events begun. The Empire outlawed cloning and replaced the…

Depending on whether Vader’s levels of self-awareness are growing, he may be more interested in driving a wedge between Luke and Obi-Wan than drawing his son to him. It echoes Sidious driving a similar wedge between Anakin and the Jedi.

I thought so too... but if he remembers Luke’s (now) prior accusation that Vader killed his father it it safe to say Vader is bringing up bc he has surmised Obi-Wan was a lying liar who has lied to Luke about who killed Anakin. I just realized while typing this that Obi-Wan killed the man who was Anakin! From a…

Again the not well though out midichlorians, by makng the force biological versus metaphysical, limits Vader’s mastery of it because he becomes more machine than man. I guess the fact Vader of the OT is that badass even at severely reduced capacity is still impressive though.

yeah, that idea never quite gelled for me, Palpatine seems every bit the master, but just that sinister drip he spoke with when talking about Plageuis, it just felt like not only did he kill him, to take his secret, but really enjoyed it too.

True. But at least (for the most part) they were driven, whereas the Jedi Order just sat on its collective ass, and allowed the galaxy to slip away.

I *think* Lords of the Sith came out as part of the new canon. It alludes to it, with Vader at one point considering letting Palpatine die and Palpatine praising him for it. Also, at one point they briefly cross blades and Palpatine asks something like “has it finally come to this?”

Dooku was most likely only taken as his apprentice after Darth Maul’s supposed death, it’s just that Dooku had already been a Jedi for roughly 70 years so there wasn’t much training necessary for him to become a powerful Sith Lord, but yeah, some cooperation probably would’ve allowed the Sith to be even stronger than…

I can’t remember if that series of books is still canon. But yes, previously he killed his master, Darth Plagous, around when he became Supreme Chancellor in episode two. I never really liked this time line though.

That was the whole point of the Bane legacy...to keep the Sith under the radar.

Well there are only two at one time so it's part of the plan. The apprentice finally kills the master, then he or she takes a new apprentice and the cycle continues.

The Rule of Two

It actually makes the encounter in Jedi make MORE sense. How does Vader learn who blew up the Death Star? How does he know that kid is training to be a Jedi already when he talks to the Emperor? So on and so on.

Not really. This can still be their new canon first face to face encounter without wrecking the scene from Empire. The dialogue in the scene is as follows:

Luke: You killed my father.
Vader: I’ve killed very many fathers. You’ll have to be more specific.

Later in the fight Luke confirms he was on the Death Star and that…

It’s only canon until someone new comes along and says everything you just read was nonsense, and we are starting a new canon. And in poetic justice I hope that person will be the force ghost of Kevin j Anderson
