Star Wars: This is The Way

[Bralia]

I swear to fucking Christ if one more person gets resurrected in Star Wars "canon", I'm going to genuinely want to blow people away. Please let people stay dead, this pseudo-immortality that everybody and their mother seems to be getting is fucking insanity.

Another one of my griefs.

No one stays dead except Uncle Ben.

Ok but listen we need to have Mace Windu be an asshole to Darth Vader.

ngl, I wanna see force ghost Anakin in the Ahsoka series, just once. Just a reconciliation.

Why so he can die again?
I would agree if its some sort of vision that would be cool but other than that I think that would just be ...overkill.

Or or, hear me out here, Obi Wan AND Anakin appear to Ahsoka. We gotta get that power trio back together.

Also I am still a little sad we never saw Ahsoka and Obi Wan reunite after Order 66.

No one stays dead except Uncle Ben.

What if we brought him back just to kill him again?

You'd be Scarlet Witch.

Well, there was this one time an Uncle Ben from like another reality showed up and they killed him. That's pretty close.

Is this in response to a specific character being resurrected or just the general trend? Like I only known Boba and Palpatine but they were brought back in the Expanded Universe long before Disney did that so it's nothing original.

[The Imperial Reach]

Nah, he means more like what Vitiate did for +1,000 years.



Vitiate did it.



C'mon guys, Vitiate.

Vitiate is no longer cannon.

So?

Morph into Alec Guiness, Ewen MacGregor has not. So who do you get go play him?

I mean Anakin showed up looking like Hayden Christensen so I dont see why Ob Wan could not show up as Ewen MacGregor. But CGI could also be used.

Replacing Sebastian Shaw who was only ever in that scene (wasn't even the guy who played Unmasked Vader) is a lot easier than replacing the guy who played Obi-Wan for 3 movies. Plus in Rebels they used the Alec Guiness template

So I just learned that Anakin was one of the voices that talked to Rey at the end of RoS. You'd think he could have talked his Grandson out of not erroneously turning to the Dark side.

You can’t tell teenagers shit.

I've learned that you can so long as you actually sit and talk it out with them.


All he had to do was pop in and say "Woah take it from me, this path reeks of mustafarian bacon. Go back to your uncle don't listen to this wack job."

A specific person I don't want to mention so I don't ruin possible future spoilers. I saw a theory and I hated it.

I've never really been happy with it since Darth Maul. Though, amusingly, I could actually be turned around on that one, I saw a bunch of Clone Wars show clips that impressed me enough that I want to finally give the show a chance and watch it.

I still believe that Anakin should have appeared to Kylo instead of that Han vision.

I agree

Hot take: Anakin didn't deserve redemption, or Jedi heaven.

sure, but thats not how the force ghost thing works

It's not that far off tbh. It's the kinda like Star Wars version of accepting Jesus as your lord and saviour on your deathbed.

Not really? There's no paradise afterlife for Force users. Everything that dies becomes one with the Force, except those corrupted by the Dark Side. They don't get an afterlife; they cease to be entirely. Vader's commitment to the Dark Side began to wane after he discovered he had a son, and he finally broke free from that corruption thus cheating oblivion. Being a Force user, this also meant he could project himself into the realm of the living - but only if he absolutely needed to (i.e. had unfinished business)

Whether you think that's fair or not is irrelevant. It's not really a reward. Maybe his soul deserved to be obliterated, maybe not. Regardless there is no "Jedi Heaven". Everything becomes one with the Force in the end (except anything immersed in the Dark Side) but only Force-users can project themselves in the realm of the living. As the Force is essentially the invisible fabric of the universe and flows through everything--living and dead--then it's more like he became sentient matter than a proper afterlife.

The Heaven and Hell dichotomy doesn't translate well into the nature of the Force. Good people don't get eternal paradise and bad people don't get eternal suffering. People, in general, become the background static of existence with only the ones who were magic space wizards being able to visit life if they're too restless to stay at peace and anything that is a product of the Dark Side or was corrupted by it is basically erased from existence entirely.

Vader cheated obliteration by severing the hold the Dark Side had over him. That means he gets to be a Force ghost.
