​@Imperial Death Trooper DT-725 Speaking of things that don't make sense... Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, I have one final thing I want you to consider. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense! Why would a Wookiee, an 8-foot-tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor, with a bunch of 2-foot-tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! Look at me. I'm a lawyer defending a major record company, and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you're in that jury room deliberatin' and conjugatin' the Emancipation Proclamation, does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, it does not make sense! If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.

There actually is a reason for vader being on the dark side. The Jedi left his mother in slavery and the first time he sees his mother in ten years is the last.

[@MasquedMocha]

Not to mention, it was the Jedi who chose to leave her on Tatooine when they easily could've freed her, and several others if they really wanted to. The Jedi claim to be morally good. They claim to be loyal to The Republic as well. The Republic allegedly outlawed slavery. And yet, they constantly turn a blind eye to it. The only time the empire appears to use slave labor, however, is with the Wookies. The Wookies who can't speak and don't wear pants. Clearly, they aren't people, they're animals. The empire are the good guys, and the Jedi are not.

[@enderdrane]

@@MasquedMocha i heard from another comment that the wookies were actually paid lol Idk tho, havent watched it yet. (Dont ask why, i never get the time)

[@Bepisipeb]

According to the novelization, Shmi Skywalker did not want to leave Tatooine as she fell in love with Cliegg Lars, got her freedom and wanted Anakin to be away from her so that he can fulfill the destiny that the Jedi told her about. Padme tried to look for her at some point but couldn’t find her as Watto’s shop moved elsewhere and Shmi was living in the middle of nowhere. If she came to Coruscant, Palpatine would probably kill her to try and get Anakin to fall to the dark side.

Thats what bounty hunters indeed are. Darth Vader is just giving job for these bounty hunters and Darth Vader said he will pay a lot for the bounty hunter who catches Millenium Falcon and brings them alive. So of course the bounty hunters listen then, when the empire itself has the most money in the entire galaxy, so they can pay you a lot, if you do what they want you to do.

[@chriswood1210]

Ok let's be real. Anakin was a weak willed person, who let his attachments get the best of him. His mother. He killed all the sandpeople. And he probably liked that too. Then he fell in love and married, something Palpatine used to his advantage. "Only I can save the ones you love" and Anakin fell for it hook line and sinker. Now I won't deny the fear and anger. But with proper training, he would have been passed all that. But Anakin was weak willed and did what he wanted. Yoda lasted 900 years without attachments like wives, children or some other mortal trivial thing to interfere with his training.

Luke showed you can be a jedi with attachments, but yoda already knew that it was possible. He had an entire archive of past jedi that had attachments. But most of the time he saw they fell to the dark side so yoda tried to create an order that focused only on the light side of the force itself. The only real corruption of the jedi was that they were just as flawed as any other person. But unlike most other groups of people, when the jedi faced annihilation, most of the survivors were younglings and padawns. Most masters fought and died to keep their order and younger generation safe. They failed because they were naive and massively underestimated the sith, not because they were malicious corrupted villans. Overall Yoda raised an incredible generation of people that wanted nothing but the best for people. Its truly a shame, they were neither ready or prepared for the disaster called Sidious. Had they been even slightly more careful, it would have been sidious to meet his end. Overall though, im not agreeing with yoda's order, but Im more so concluding it under innocent naiveity. Yoda truly meant well and raised people that meant well. He just didnt properly prepare his students for the coming darkness and his order wasnt robust enough to wistand it.

The Republic didnt agree with the Jedi in having to murder off a species and causing war over what was seen as a religious dispute.

Palpatine in expanded universe had plans for a truly dark side imbued empire down the line. His Dark Empire emerged and fought the galaxy after his rebirth (sounds familiar?). And it featured slews of examples of Sith sorcery. Thrawn hated the Death Star and considered it pointless which can tell you that from the point of fighting the Yuuzhan Vong it would not have been that viable.

The novelization of A New Hope is even more supportive of this argument with the Empire’s focus on saving lives on Leia’s ship. Vader specifically orders that civilian survivors be left alive and only questioned, and we get to see a very interesting dichotomy just before Leia is captured. We see the thoughts of the Stormtrooper who leads the group, excited to take her in alive. To simply stun her, receive a promotion, and return home a rich man to provide for his family. Then we hear the incredibly painful process of Leia’s blaster going through his helmet and melting his brain, after he would have merely stunned her.

[@ferrumbruti167]

@Vice Admiral Buizel Bedwell A compelling argument Jim Huss ENT and also Vice Admiral Buizel Bedwell but there is something to consider. 1: While the Galactic Empire is indeed a government on intent seeks to bring peace and order to the galaxy? It discriminates non humans. In essence the Galactic Empire is really nothing more than the Third Reich, and while they too were a government, genocidal cleansing of those they deemed as, "non pure" meant ghettos, concentration camps, and finally gas chambers. Even until this day this argument is a core argument that we find very common about atrocities in human rights. So if we are to take this into account? Is the Empire good? Because aliens that are not human in this case? With the exception of Thrawn are indeed inferior leaving other regions like the Outer Rim Territories to become the new slums leaving the Core Worlds to just human? Yeah....frankly another example exist today between the rich living lap of luxury and the poor forced to suffer in the regions beyond cities..... North Korea. So in turn I hate to say it but yeah.....Suck it..... 2: WMDs to keep the "populace" in line. Again WMDs could be considered a means of fear to bring about order. Sure the Atomic Bomb ended WWII? But THAT same counter argument incited ALSO a Cold War between the United States of America, and also the Soviet Union. A "Cold War" that on more than one occasion could have become both hot, and meant the death of lives and various civilization. In turn fear as a means of control is NEVER the best example and like any fear means eventually "apthathy" toward the oppressor. Again gas on Jews in the Holocaust? Gas used on Kurds? Chemical weapons used in Syria? You call those good examples? Negative on that argument. Hate again only breeds hate, or anguish, in that case war, and in time could be good? Or worse than the power already in line. If atrocities were allowed not only would the galaxy in the Star Wars Universe reach a Dark Age..... Oh wait, LOLZ, it is in the middle of a Dark Age...... THE MOTHER FUCKING DARK AGE OF THE SITH, OMFG FUCKIING BRILLIANT! SUCK IT! 3: The Empire Was Never A Monarchy But Self Proclaimed Leadership Manipulated By Propaganda Again I hear this a lot as for those that support the Empire, and sure yeah the Tantive IV might be an Imperial Ship? Oh wait it was a Diplomatic Ship of the Aderaanian Government! FUCKING BRILLIANT! See this is what you have to look at here, the Tantive IV was a ship from Alderaan, in other words a ship of the "State" this argument is pretty much debunked by definition if you will the Empire would be considered as "Federal or Higher Central Power" and Alderaan being "State, City State, or Providence". Now depending on the fact if Alderaaan is considered to be allowed autonomous is one thing or another. But IF SO; well then this is more of an argument of jurisdiction. Sure the Empire MIGHT have been collecting data back stolen on oh a Corvette "owned" by Alderaan? AND the Empire DOES have control of the galaxy? BUT! The thing to look at here the Tantive IV was pursued technically in "International Space" or in this case one Tattooine. Which MEANS the Outer Rim Territories are considered more really as a region "outside" the control of the Empire and ALSO contested and yes this is canon by the "Hutts". So in other words yes while the droids, the data were on an Alderaanian Corvette? Not saying it isn't Corelllian Corvette, but YES none the less a Corvette from "Alderaan". Thus in turn the Emperor could bitch all he wants and use force to seize it? But again he would be in political terms breaking "International Space" seizing a Corvette in space he does not own! So again to do this what does he do? He takes over Tattooine? To bring peace and order to the Empire? So already a Corvette shot over a planet he does not own? Violates jurisdiction, out of fit Vader captures or destroys those on board, okay genocide if you will. Then after that to make an example brings Leia to the bridge of Palpatine's and the Empire's Big Ball to Jizzmak all over Alderaan..... Oh excuse me.......destroy lives on Alderaan. So we have already in this lets look at it this way. A: Pursuing a vessel in International or Intergalactic Space. B: Invading or Forced Entry on a ship outside of it's jurisdiction. C: Maybe genocide to hide the events. D: Invasion of a planet to find droids. Uh yeah......sure their good I know someone else that did the same thing! Naepolian, and Hitler, OMFG THAT'S FUCKING BRILLIANT! So already an "Empire" committed violations already on an Intergalactic scale to justify itself would be considered laughable. But I digress.....LETS SHIT FEST ABOUT THE EMPIRE'S CLAIM TO POWER! >:D First what do we have, an invasion of Naboo. Jedi sent, and yeah shit goes wrong. To justify things Sidious, "not in power" sends an assassin oh I'm sorry "apprentice" to keep the Trade Federation in line, kill the jedi with Padame who is queen at this time. Wow opposition going to kill a noble through assassination. That's ALSO a form of treason. DUH! After that manipulates events through kickstarting a civil war in II, followed by manipulate an individual through political intrigue to become his apprentice, AFTER he manipulated events to come into power as "Chancellor". Finally in turn after winning the war, turn and kill a peace keeping force sworn to protect the republic. Manipulate it's Senate, proclaim himself Emperor as ruler for life, and only in the end institute "absolute power" not even through "divine right" unless you consider the Sith, a thank you very much! Yeah now when there is a rebellion? He's doing the right thing? Yeah two words, Adolph Hitler. Ring a bell? So there you go as Padme says it, "So this is how Liberty dies, with thunderous applause." Link below..... kzbin.info/www/bejne/maGTZ2yPlLVgb68 So allow me to counteract that now. First as a KZbinr I declare my divine youtube right to speak.... Put my barrel in your mouth and suck it! >:D After that I justify it by saying that divine right allowed me and not a damn thing you can do about it. >:P After that no only do I do that?

The whole theory of Stormtroopers being bad shots has always had one major flaw. If they hit the targets that they're shooting at, then these movies wouldn't be very long. The people that they're shooting at have 12 inch thick plot armor protecting them. When they shoot at people when set to stun, or when they shoot at droids, they hit. Plus the one that shot Leia in Jedi, that was a hell of a shot. The clearing between the bunker and the forest was quite large, and the angle would have put Leia sideways with only a bit of her arm sticking out around the corner. Where it hit her arm is right on line with her heart, if her arm hadn't been in the way she'd be dead.

[@berrymckokinger9317]

But like...he was asked if it was a fast ship? That implies travelling a set distance in less time comparatively to some other commonly known referenced time. Any ship could do the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs if they were lucky like Han. Basically he avoids the question because Han is in fact mentally disabled and doesn't understand Obi-Wan's strange words.

[@daanverhoeven5494]

@@berrymckokinger9317 no, because to fly close enough to the black holes to do it in less then 12 parsecs without being sucked in your ship needs a lot of power, which also makes it a fast ship

[@berrymckokinger9317]

@@daanverhoeven5494 well we both know how Han made "a lot of power" now don't we? Which again, almost any ship could theoretically do, since we've already thrown out most laws of physics at this point.

Definition Gaming you do know, if Obi-Wan told the truth then Luke would prob be screwed lol

[@TheSpyBaby]

In what way do you think he would be screwed? I guess you could argue that Vader would know there would be no chance he would side with him and he would have killed him in ep5 but that didn't stop Vader from saving him in ep6. Or Luke would have stayed to finish his training and all his friends die, lol. I'm probably missing something very key.

[@cjluksch3859]

Definition Gaming don’t forget the empire killed Luke’s family

[@TheSpyBaby]

The empire wouldn't order soldiers to kill the only 2 known people who are aware of where the droids' location. That is a stupid move that a genius like Vader or the Emperor would never order. This was simply a war crime committed by the storm troopers without the knowledge of their superiors. The actions of a few rogues don't make the whole peace loving empire evil.

@@inchantor1536 HAVEN'T YOU SEEN THE NEWEST MOVIE? It was a shortcut. The normal and the safe way of the kessel run is 18 parsecs. Han went through the dangerous way because the Empire forces were blocking the normal and the safe way. He lost the satellite antenna on the dangerous way and wrecked the Millenium Falcon very badly. He was on a shorter way that was only 12 parsecs long. You are haters, not fans. You should launch yourselves to the moon. I'm apologizing my bad English. I'm from Finland.
