An individual, flawed as any other human, acknowledges his mistakes in a candid and self excoriating manner. Vows to avoid making same mistake. Victim of said mistakes forgives him.

The reaction you’re getting isn’t because people think you’re bragging, it’s because you are taking on a higher level of moral aggrievement towards Harmon than the actual victim is.

I thought the WAY that he threw it was bad though. Like it was just too jokey rather than mournfully/anguished/guilt-ridden like he should’ve actually felt at seeing it.

The Emperor borrowed from the mythos of evil sorcerer/priest/warlock with his character design. He was one dimensional but he was good at it.

Did they show/mention his parents failing him?

Ummm... Skywalkers aren’t difficult to turn though. Palpatine did it by telling some absolute bs story about Padme dying and then giving the most obvious impression of Mephistopheles in Faust that anyone could give. (Granted that was to a kid who CLEARLY had unresolved PTSD from growing up in slavery that the Jedi’s…

He’s just full on anarchist at this point. He bought into the whole “the past must die” mentality too much and Snoke didn’t realise that he was also part of that past.

What was amazing about it? Just out of curiosity. Like I don’t care about a lot of the criticisms, but it’s just not exciting and epic the way a star wars movie should be. Half the characters are stuck in bottle episodes and the only ones who are able to leave go on a really pointless mission to space monaco (btw I’ll…

Not sure if this is satire dude. Obi Wan dies the exact same way - he vanishes when Vader strikes him. So Luke vanishing makes sense.

The problem with the “I’ll hold” bit is that it just makes Hux look like a buffoon. We need baddies to be formidable to make the goodies good. Now it’s just the good guys trying to beat a bunch of incompetents.

Nope. Phantom Menace still has the best lightsaber fight. Can’t beat that phenomenal music in that final scene.

Which parts of it did you like? The addition of tonally off quips? The utter emasculation of all of the remaining bad guys? Abrams won’t have to work to return the arc to Return of the Jedi 2.0, he’ll have to work to put together enough of a storyline to justify a third movie. In fact Johnson left him with so little…

Now you’re nitpicking. You probably have to give us your definition of socialism so we can answer the question properly. Because for most of us socialism = social democracy. Whereas it seems like for you socialism = communism?

Could you explain how the small scale high tech manufacturing that is growing in the US will help anyone but the factory owners? The manufacturing that is coming back is NOT bringing back the manufacturing jobs that were lost in the first wave of off-shoring.

Ummm... isn’t this the same woman who admitted to actions against her sister that would amount to molestation but didn’t show any remorse for her actions?

 That sounds like 3rd hand information.

It kind of IS part of the problem though. I was involved with a healthy relationships/anti sexual assault high school program where they spent so much time getting the kids to identify which behaviors were sexual harassment/assault that they didn’t have time to teach these teenage boys and girls how to actually…

It’s good man. Probably not quite as good as the trailer makes out, but it hits it’s marks.

I mean you’re kidding if you think drilling for oil is consensual aren’t you?

To be fair, that was okay banter between them. I mean they’re horrible horrible creatures who masquerade as human beings, but that was vaguely amusing.
