Yeah, seriously. :::/// I... frankly really question the writing there, 'cause Leia has her flaws, but that particular one doesn't sound like something she'd do. Like, I imagine "Leia" + "some creepo wannabe-Sith screwing with her kid's mind" and I can't really picture any outcome but "Leia gets EVERYONE together to try to END the creep." (Which could still end in failure, but like. I just cannot see her hiding that.)
I thought about it, and you know what? It's really hard to imagine General Leia Organa Solo hesitating to bring something up out of fear that she'd be disbelieved or not taken seriously. Novelizations for movies sometimes get written without access to the full or final script, don't they? I think I could buy some kind of active interference on the part of Snoke or his agents to prevent Leia from bringing that to Han's attention, though.
I mean, there's a lot of ways they could change it so I'd buy that she knew about what was happening to Ben before he flipped out (they couldn't do anything because they couldn't figure out where it was coming from, for instance), but none of them include hiding it from Han for no reason.
iYou know what I hate. Midi-chlorians. I liked it in the originals where if you believe in the force, that made you a sith or a jedi. Me personally, I prefer the dark side.
Yeah, I was just looking around and i found it. So I thought to share it with you. But I like the Palpatine one. Which is funny because Vader uses a lightsaber, but the Emperor doesn't mind, but when Luke shows up with one, WEAPON OF A JEDI!!
I always sort of assumed he was talking about that one specifically, not lightsabers in general. Vader's is red, which makes it the weapon of a Sith, because Force-users are color-coded for your convenience. :::PPP
Yeah, but what about yellow? I'm a hard core star wars fan, so I look up this stuff whenever i have nothing else better to do. I read that yellow stands for the color of fear (And no, I'm not going off of green lantern logic) so shouldn't it be considered a weapon of the sith since the sith work off darkness which is one of the top 5 most common fears? Maybe I am reading too much into this.
For those of you who remember Darth'ness Dementia Raven Way from a few weeks back... the thrilling sequel. Also re: Yoda being surprised about Vader being Luke's father... IDK, I assume Obiwan told him what physically happened to Anakin, I'd be pretty damn surprised that the guy is still alive and kicking enough ass to be a Sith myself.
I am sorry for the massive debate about to happen, but me and my friend need a closure towards this. Are Luke, Han, Leia, etc. even aliens? They look human but they are from different planets. That is one definition of an alien, a creature from another planet. I say that they are aliens. and to prove my point, The Doctor is alien, but he looks human, so why not Leia and Luke?
Since Star Wars happened a long time ago, I would think the question would be: are we aliens? Because we look like Luke and Leia, but they're from different planets, presenting the possibility that humanity originated in a galaxy far far away and that we're the descendants of some poor space-farers who got stuck here and lost all their technology somehow. Or maybe it was on purpose, I don't know. Space Amish, anyone? More seriously: leaving aside midichlorians, the human-looking characters in Star Wars don't have anything that distinguishes them from us, like the Doctor's two hearts and so on, but since they didn't originate on Earth, I guess that makes them aliens?
Read an article somewhere that statistically evolutionarily speaking, -vertebrate quadru/biped -forward facing sensory apparatuses -eating-and-breathing apparatuses front and center -internal support structure -large, heavily protected braincase/central nervous system And a bunch of other "human" traits are the traits best suited for our environment (obviously) so any species with human-or-better success on a planet that is ALSO suitable for human populations would have aliens that at least vaguely resemble humans and that sci-fi "lizard people" or whatever aren't necessarily unreasonable because statistics + environment. Look at how many Earth species fit that criteria. We're looking for "Earthlike" planets where Earthling species could survive. Chances are, there's already an "Earthlike" dominant species there. Except they're lizards. Or EVERYONE went back into the ocean and cetaceans are the dominant species and built Space Atlantis. BOTH ARE PROBABLE BECAUSE SPACE IS NEARLY INFINITE AND THERE IS NO STATISTICAL WAY WE'RE ALONE AND THAT'S GREAT *excited wheezing*
Exactly what I'm saying. When I hear long time ago, I think of the Roman Empire, and I don't think Caesar was making rockets in his spare time. You know I can get behind that. I love science, and i can agree to that. We already discovered life on Mars, so who is to say we are not alone?

I wonder, what do people think about the headcanon that Hux is somehow related to Palpatine? I'm on my phone so I can't find it right now, but there's official illustrations of young Palpatine, and he looks strikingly similar.
Well he is canon son of Commandant Brendol Hux from the originals/Clone Wars so... (Which I thought was a great touch because YAY EVERYBODY'S KIDS ARE HERE!) Edit: He got his Dad's cheekbones ehehehe
