Yazarogi 09/08/18 10:04:49 PM #13:	Spoilers ahead. It wasn't as bad as everyone makes it out to be, I'm always flabbergasted when people act surprised that a Skywalker had the darkside (through fear) take over him. Anakin when he foresaw Padme's death, Luke when he foresaw Kylo Ren becoming a pawn of the Dark Side as well, and now Kylo himself, turning to the darkside in the first place. Another thing that pisses me off is when people bitch about Leia (obviously force sensitive since she mentioned in in RotJ 30 fucking years ago) using her force powers to bring her back to the ship. Mother fucking Plo Koon was fighting droids in the vacuum of space... FIGHTING... in the VACUUM of space, in Clone Wars which is confirmed CANON mind you. So why is it so fucking crazy to assume Leia wasn't honing her force powers in her own way for the last 20 years in universe? Cry more losers, the movie wasn't as shit as they make it out to be. They are the same people that have to literally anomalously bully an actress for portraying a character on screen, they did the same thing to both Jake Lloyd (who snapped eventually from it) and Hayden Christensen. I'm pretty sure a small amount (not all if you've read her biographies) of some of the mental shit Carrie Fisher was going through back in the day was a result of crazy ass fans also. --- "There will be nothing to show that we were ever here... but stardust." - Pinbacker <cite>Yazarogi posted [p:908377037] in I finally ...
