Can you please changed this article’s title to “Former Community Writer Megan Ganz Calls Out Dan Harmon for Verbal Abuse”? Because this is 2018, and saying the word “misconduct” when thinking of a man automatically leads one to assuming it’s sexual, and I fear this may be intentional in order to generate clicks.

I think you’re in the minority only in that his impressions are often fairly masterful.

I know that I’m a minority in the minority on this one, but I don’t really find Jay all that funny. I think he’s coasted on some pretty middling impressions, and his stand-up is weak. I hope he finds something that works better than this.

Plus, even if you buy that Luke just had a moment of weakness and wouldn’t have really killed Ben...that’s still a huge issue for Luke’s characterization.

100% agree with this.

Not that I overly care about whateve Luke should be doing, but I think the negative comparison is that Obi-wan and yoda were hermits because they were under an incredible threat of total annihilation. They had to become lone exiles to save themselves. Not to mention that even in exile, they were still keeping busy…

Ok, have it your way. Obiwan and Yoda are never shown to have the impulse to MURDER THEIR PADWANS IN THEIR SLEEP.

Hmm, none of the shit you just mentioned is in the definition of the word try.

Well, that’s what I would call it. Feel free to create your own version of events as it suits you and call it whatever you like.

No, it doesn’t. “I tried, but i just couldn’t bring myself to pull the trigger.” is what you might say if Luke was holding a gun.

Right, i forgot about the part where he makes a pro and con list with his lightsaber lit. Although that scene would fit in well in a movie based around a slow-speed chase.

Right, now contract that to Yoda and Obi-wan who are giving their padawans chances to back down after they’ve completely turned evil and done some pretty terrible things. EVEN THEN, they don’t attack first. It’s a pretty significant difference.

If I go into your room, I take out a gun, I cock it, and then I realize its wrong and immoral, even if it is what’s best for everyone, I would say “I tried to kill him, but I couldn’t do it.”

In both versions he activates his light saber and cocks it back. In bens he swings, in Lukes, he pauses and lowers it.

Considered implies no decision was made, and he took no action toward killing Ben, but we know thats not true.

So, his activating of the lightsaber was not an intentional act? You’re saying it activated by accident? Or, as you saying he activated his lightsaber for the purpose of killing Ben?

Anything less is the worst kind of puerile fairy tale.

That’s actually the #1 dictionary definition of try. Your version of try is called “i made this shit up”. EVEN THEN. Even then, in your “i make up what words mean” version, you said “actually taking an action”, which he fucking does! Like, you know, activating your lightsaber and cocking it back for a swing, might be…

Try: make an attempt or effort to do something.

The movie is mediocre. The people that are calling it amazing are blinded by the fact that its a Star Wars film and the people calling it terrible are blinded by the fact that its a Star Wars film.
