Wish the cell phone could capture it. Could see the craters on it. Coming up over the horizon was crystal clear. Was awesome

Anyone see the meme's that point out that Yoda and Obi-Wan were both able to block force lightning, but neither warned Luke about it before he fought the Emperor?

Dicks.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

The burned body teaches best.

Let him get zapped a few times. That'll learn the whiny impatient little shit not to walk off before we're finished with him.

He left class early, remember? I think Force Lightning blocking was going to be covered the next semester.

Obviously, Yoda's talking out of his head, here. He's about 37.8 seconds from being dead. He's just telling this asshole that's come to ruin his dying by whining about his daddy what he wants to hear so he'll leave him the fuck alone.

This video kind of highlights what a genius Lucas was when he made the original movie. Those characters are amazing.

I think there is a great argument for R2-D2 being the greatest Star Wars character created. I mean, what level of genius did it take to create an insanely beloved character out of a beeping trashcan? Had anything like that ever happened before? TFA did great stuff with BB-8, but the concept wouldn't have even existed without R2.

BB-8 used to be R2-D2.

Well Lucas' master plan was the to have R2 dictating the whole story 100 years after the fact and having seen it all. So he may have made himself look like the hero and embellished a bit. But the whole saga is to be viewed through the eyes of R2.

He knows everything that happened doesn't tell Luke or Obi Wan what he knows. Doesn't tell them anything at all.
To his enduring credit this was actually Lucas' plan from the get go.

I think I would have voted for Kylo Ren, but I am reluctant to support someone whose Arc is not completed. Given the larger shadow he casts I probably would go for Vader, despite the fact that Smaug would CLEARLY kick his ass in a fight.
