God you’re right, he looks like a mall goth version of himself.
Which is honestly the most Anakin thing, if you think about it.

That’s what happens when your idea of discipline is a slap on the wrist.

I need the kids here to hear me now and belieeb me latah - Lucas had no idea he was going to make Luke & Leia siblings; as to whether Vader was somebody’s father (yes German yes) - maybe
After Star Wars blew up bigly, he ran back to the drawing board and squeezed out the first ever cinematic trilogy (that anyone who isn’t a film buff knows of). That was all “fine” and “well”.
Until Phantom Menace. Oof. People. We had a problem. Then . . . Disney.
Okay that’s it. Here’s the deal: There is ONE Star Wars movie (it was not called “A New Hope” FFS). That’s all. The rest is fan fiction. Period. Yeah it’s fun, sure have a good time but when you get to the fucking midichlorians or what the fuck ever - fuggedaboudit.
Sometimes fan fiction takes an idea and does a better job, expanding it, fills in gaps, or simply goes places the author didn't even think of. Some can stray too far from the core but still have some valid contributions. Some take a single line and tell their own exceptional story.

I’d say Empire was fine because all details of how Vader was his father were missing so there’s nothing to complain about. It only went downhill with Return of the Jedi. Making Leia his sister was bad for continuity. Then it went off a cliff with the prequels.

Does that version of Darth Vader pull out a Lightbelt to spank Luke for disobeying him?
It was jut a light tap on his hand to teach him to not pick his nose.
Anyway that didn’t end well…

They were convinced enough it wasn’t that good that the sequel was supposed to be a budget film.
Great book!
It’s Dutch, not German.

Well. There we go then.
Fan fiction… from the creator? Okay.
“Hey do you like Star Wars?”
“I’m a huge Star Wars fan! So no.”
I mean . . .
