Wait Lord Tobias, do you even like Star Wars?

He obviously doesn’t like the OT, so I have no idea why he’s here.
Oh, I know. Because he thinks his opinion is “edgy” and “different” and may cause a ruckus.
It’s none of those things.

Let us not pretend that darth vader becoming Luke’s father was a good idea…it was not
Ah, but it was. That is one of the many story points that makes TESB the best of the films. Kersher was known for his character oriented stories and that was the main reason Lucas hired him to direct. He pulled all the emotion he could out of the script and in my mind it is only exceeded in the saga by the Luke/Vader/Palpatine scenes on the Death Star. From the ranking thread, the majority of OT members feel TESB is the best of all the films. That seems to carry over to the public at large as well. So you are really arguing against the trend to complain about what most consider the best movie and the most the most iconic line from that movie. Back in 1980, most of us couldn’t believe that it was true. It blew us away and it was awesome.
