>Darth Vader, the most famous cinema villain ever, is a fucking retarded dipshit who kills kids for pussy
Why does anyone here like this shit?
Because it's good.
>>64404282
because Darth Vader was cool before the prequels
>>64404282
Darth Vader was never cool. He was an emotional wreck in the OT and is one in the PT. The robot voice just hides it.
>>64404282
Because he kills kids for pussy.

>Darth Vader was never cool
this is reddit friends
>>64404486
>implying he wasn't swag as fuck with a killer sense of humor in ESB
he's only a wreck in RotJ because his love for his son is weakening his resolve
>>64404533
Darth Vader is moe.
>>64404282
DV/Anakin just loves his wife/family a lot.
>>64404533
Originally he was just the cuck sidekick of Tarkin, basically. A total gimp.
His popularity is based on the exact same thing as Boba Fett's - he happened to look cool and have an air of mystery about him because his face was behind a mask.
>>64404687
loves her so much he force chokes her
>>64404700
>Vader acquiesces to Tarkin saying "Vader release him" and Leia makes a joke about Tarkin holding Vader's leash
>this means he's just Tarkin's sidekick even though Vader is actually the one doing most of the ordering around in the movie
and you know, he does tons of cool stuff, especially in Empire Strikes Back. Boba Fett is a glorified extra
the portrayal of vader as a powerful but troubled young jedi wasnt that badly done
>>64404808
>wasnt that badly done
It was terrible, are you high? The writing was literally made for 7 year olds.
>>64404831
>The writing was literally made by a 7 year old.
Fix'd
>>64404282
They weren't kids, they were younglings.
The prequels had shit writing.
>>64404486
> an emotional wreck in the OT
Admit it, you grew up with the specialized versions of the OT
>>64404764
Generally one someone refers to you as "on someone's leash" it means you're someone's lap dog
>>64404831
Sure the dialogue is sjitty but honestly everything else about Anakin is fine. People need to realize that a character can be good without being likeable. Anakin's personality totally makes sense within the context of the story.

fuck you nigger

The same can be said for every Star Wars film.
>>64405029
She was just trying to quip at him, which obviously had no effect on him.
Vader stopped being intimidating with all the merchandising and star wars sets at disney before then.
>>64404486
>Darth Vader was never cool
child.
>>64404486
He was a loser in the OT
>no one took him seriously
>get ordered around by Tarkin
>Leia made fun of him and called him a dog
>couldn't save the Death Star
>throws temper tantrums at ever moment and kills more of his men than actual enemies
>flips on his own mantle
>even Boba Fett doesn't respect him
>laughing stock of the imperial army
>Sheev makes fun of him and would be ok with replacing him with Luke
>>64404700
>His popularity is based on the exact same thing as Boba Fett's - he happened to look cool and have an air of mystery about him because his face was behind a mask.
You've never watched the OT have you?
>>64405167
"The movies are for children" is a backpedal that George did when people didn't like Phantom Menace.
if he really intended the prequels to be solely children's movies he wouldn't have made them about taxation of trade routes and political subterfuge. It's like Tommy Wiseau retroactively claiming the Room is a black comedy
>>64404707
>you ever love somebody so much, they can barely breath when you wit 'em...
>>64405276
>>64404707
That was his key character flaw.
Anakin impulsively lashes out horribly when he's at an emotional breaking point. Remember what he told you about his mother and the sand-people?
>>64405429
>entirety of character's rationalization for all the terrible things he does is love
>does something so retarded and hamfisted that it makes him look like a fucking idiot and nullifies all that past buildup and reasoning
all because WE WANNA SEE HIM DO A CHOKE!!!
>>64405167
Yes, exactly!
>>64405276
>if he really intended the prequels to be solely children's movies he wouldn't have made them about taxation of trade routes and political subterfuge
THIS

The idea is that by the end of the movie he wasn't doing it for love but for blind ambition. It's was established in the originals that getting involved with the Dark Side is a rapid downward spiral.
>>64404282
>>Darth Vader, the most famous cinema villain ever, is a fucking retarded dipshit who kills kids for pussy
spotted the plebbitor who hasn't seen star wars until last year when big bang theory told her it was hip and mainstream
>>64404282
Thats pretty much the whole point of the movies. He was emotionally manipulated by the dark side, thats literally the entire point of the star wars story, the dark side corrupts the weak and makes them stronger.
>>64406357
>thats literally the entire point of the star wars story
No it literally isn't.
>>64406357
>OT: Luke gives into the Dark Side, making him beat Vader before giving it up
>PT: Anakin gives into the Dark Side, making him murder kids, choke his wife etc
So basically the PT ruined the concept by making it stupid as hell.
>>64406357
>the dark side corrupts the weak and makes them stronger.
No the point is the dark side/evil corrups people by tricking them they will become stronger, but they actually get weaker.
>>64404282
Kylo Ren is better. He kills kids (his classmates, to be more precise) because he wants to be as cool as grandpa, who killed kids for pussy.
>TFA better than the prequels
>>64404282
Prequals aren't canon. No character who kills children could be redeemed.
