this dude was really the big bad in 3 straight trilogies.

this is why star wars is not on the level of lord of the rings, or even harry potter....stories with ONE author and a clear vision from start to finish. Star wars was a grab bag of asspulls, hare brained ideas and power struggles between creative directors

First two trilogies had a clear story to tell, even if the prequels could have used a better editor. That last trilogy though, I pretend that shyt doesn’t exist, because they had no idea what they were doing.

All of that boils down to Disney. Disney’s stock in trade is happily ever after fairytales, and that’s not what Star Wars is.

Star Wars is a legacy product with a philosophical, morality-based core and a universal, multigenerational appeal. It’s rooted in the tropes you’d see in old adventure serials, coupled with thousands of years worth of mythology and storytelling traditions.

One of the keys to storytelling is the hero’s journey, which is something that Disney and all these new-millennium fanfic writers running Hollywood today have no concept of. You saw what happened to Marvel after these people got too involved.

The prequels have their faults but at least there was a clear vision behind it, and we knew what story they wanted to tell.

And that story wasn’t a happily ever after fairy tale.

It was the story of a hero’s journey.
It was a story about overcoming adversity.
It was a story about good versus evil, and adventure.
It was a war story.
It was a story about the fall of a government and the rise of a regime.
It was a story about redemption.

None of which are Disney’s stock-in-trade.

Homie smooching on his sister was worse than a "fault" breh

I always thought the rule of 2 was stupid because it limited the number of Sith characters in the stories.

The Sith are self destructive by nature. Limiting the number of them to 2 at a time actually ensured the survival of their doctrine. Everytime you have too many Sith around at one time they end up fighting destructive civil wars... every single time.

And it was awesome in Clone Wars when they had Maul and his brother, Dooku, Ventress, and Palpatine running around doing Sith Lord fukkery at the same damn time.

I agree, but they all had intentions on eventually stabbing each other in the back. They would have destroyed each other before too long.

Nxgga that was their fault. nobody was stopping them nxggas from training harder.

Even Yoda thought the Sith were long gone and training to fight them was probably like asking them to fight the Easter Bunny...

The biggest threat were battle droids at that time...

Not cotdamn ninja assassins!!!
