Good job

A great example of why this channel is different from all the rest. Even if this had nothing to do with the star wars universe, your writing would be elegant, and your sense of narrative structure, pace, dialogue and description would produce something original and compelling. In fact, I hope you will find time to write something longer for publication.

So interesting history. now makes it all over Anakin's story better.

“ The dark is generous. Its first gift is concealment: our true faces lie in the dark beneath our skins, our true hearts remain shadowed deeper still. But the greatest concealment lies not in protecting our secret truths, but in hiding from the truths of others. The dark protects us from what we dare not know. Its second gift is comforting illusion: the ease of gentle dreams in night’s embrace, the beauty that imagination brings to what would repel in the day’s harsh light. But the greatest of its comforts is the illusion that dark is temporary: that every night brings a new day. Because it’s the day that is temporary. Day is the illusion. Its third gift is the light itself: as days are defined by the nights that divide them, as stars are defined by the infinite black through which they wheel, the dark embraces the light, and brings it forth from the center of its own self. With each victory of the light, it is the dark that wins.” -- Matthew Stover, 2005

Indeed! It is the Dark that holds the light. Perhaps a philosophy of a Gray Jedi or pehaps someone else. In the end, the Dark is there. But it can also be used to produce a good aura about you.

The dark is generous and it is patient and it always wins - but in the heart of its strength lies its weakness: one lone candle is enough to hold it back. Love is more than a candle. Love can ignite the stars. -- Matthew Stover,2005 ,Revenge of the Sith

What was Sidious plan to present Anakin after the purge? Having him hidden underneath the suit meant that no one asked why Anakin was different from the other Jedi.

beside star wars was never deep, it was a very popular summer blockbuster it was shallow as fuck with some deeper themes thrown into the mix and said themes were only explored enough for the story when needed. the OT is a super simplistic trilogy and there is nothing wrong with that

@SithReign

Sorry I got to this so late. It's really time-consuming to do the subtitles, so this is the best I can do for now: the script. Fear was a necessary component in destroying the Jedi and burning away the putrefying vestiges of the Republic. But first, I had to create that fear - fear of revolution, of destruction, and of death. I had to create a war on a massive scale. My apprentice Count Dooku rallied star systems to his banner, inflaming passions among Rim citizens who had long felt neglected by the co---re. This naturally deepened the fears of Core residents, who clamored for protection like brush-kits mewling for their mothers. The clone army I had prepared was met with applause and relief. And so began the Clone Wars. It did not matter at all that I dictated orders to the Separatists through my apprentice. Nor that every Republic victory was followed with a carefully planned defeat. The benefits of the false war were countless. From the clone army came a battle fleet and an arsenal of new mechanized weapons of war. Overnight, the Republic had a class of military elites who swore their loyalty to the Supreme Chancellor. The Senators had feared that being painted as disloyal would make them unelectable, so they supported measures to dismantle all checks on centralized power. On the opposite side, the Trade Federation, the Commerce Guild, and other corporate conglomerates joined together to safeguard their profits. They unknowingly pledged their allegiance to the Sith. The Jedi did not want war, but they had little choice. They had to join the fight lest they face public scorn. There on the front lines, my war struck down my enemies and shredded their morals until they were on the brink of the dark side. The Jedi were never the true heroes. I saw to that by manipulating the Holonet. The people were led to fear the Jedi’s arrogance and strange power. By crafting the news, the clone troopers and their noble chancellor became the fearless heroes of the Republic. When the time came for the Jedi to be eliminated, the public did not mourn them. When the Senate learned that the Jedi had attempted a coup and needed to be exterminated, they responded with absolute certainty. And when the people saw smoke rising from the Jedi Temple, they felt relief. --------------- Darth Sidious had had most of his beloved Sith statues and ancient bas-reliefs removed from his ruined chambers in the Senate Office Building, where four Jedi had lost their lives and one had been converted to the dark side. Relocated to the throne room, the statues had been placed on the dais, the scuptures mounted on the long walls. Swiveling his throne, Sidious gazed at them now. As some Jedi had feared from the start, Anakin had been ripe for conversion when Qui-Gon Jinn had first brought him to the Temple, and for well over a decade all of Sidious’s plans for the boy had unfolded without incident. But even Sidious hadn’t foreseen Anakin’s defeat by Obi-Wan Kenobi on Mustafar. Anakin had still been between worlds then, and vulnerable. The failure to defeat his former Master had worked to prolong that vulnerability. Sidious recalled the desperate return trip to Coruscant; recalled using all his powers, and all the potions and devices contained in his medkit, to minister to Anakin’s hopelessly blistered body and truncated limbs. He recalled thinking: What if Anakin should die? How many years would he have had to search for an apprentice even half as powerful in the Force, let alone one created by the Force itself to restore balance, by allowing the dark side to percolate fully to the surface after a millennium of being stifled? None would be found. Sidious would have had to discover a way to compel midichlorians to do his bidding, and bring into being one as powerful as Anakin. As it was, Sidious and a host of medical droids had merely restored Anakin to life, which- while no small feat- was a far cry from returning someone from death. For thousands of years, the ability to survive death had been pursued by Sith and Jedi alike, and no one had been successful at discovering the secret. Beings had been saved from dying, but no one had cheated death. The most powerful of the ancient Sith Lords had known the secret, but it had been lost or, rather, misplaced. Now that the galaxy was his to rule, there was nothing to prevent Sidious, too, from unlocking that mystery. Then he and his crippled apprentice might hold sway over the galaxy for ten thousand years, and live eternally. If they didn’t kill each other first. In large part because Padmé Amidala had died. Sidious had deliberately brought her and Anakin together three years earlier, both to rid the Senate of her vote against the Military Creation Act and to put temptation in Anakin’s path. Following the murder of Anakin’s mother, Anakin had secretly married Padmé. When he had learned of the marriage, Sidious knew for certain that Anakin’s pathological attachment to her would eventually supply the means for completing his conversion to the dark side. Anakin’s fears for her, in actuality and in visions- and especially after Padmé had become pregnant- had been heightened by keeping him far from her. Then it simply had been a matter of unmasking the Jedi for the hypocrites that they were, sacrificing Dooku to Anakin’s rage, and promising Anakin that Padmé could be saved from death … The latter, an exaggeration necessary for Anakin’s turn from what the Jedi called right thinking; for opening his eyes to his true calling. But such was the way of the Force. It provided opportunities, and one needed only to be ready to seize them. Not for the first time Sidious wondered what might have happened had Anakin not killed Padmé on Mustafar. For all she loved him, she never would have understood or forgiven Anakin’s action at the Jedi Temple. In fact, that was one of the reasons Sidious had sent him there. Clone troopers could have dealt with the instructors and younglings, but Anakin’s presence was essential in order to cement his allegiance to the Sith, and, more important, to seal Padmé’s fate. Even if she had survived Mustafar, their love would have died- Padmé might even have lost the will to live- and their child would have become Sidious’s and Vader’s to raise. Might that child have been the first member of a new Sith order of thousands or millions? Hardly. The idea of a Sith order was a corruption of the intent of the ancient Dark Lords. Fortunately, Darth Bane had understood that, and had insisted that only in rare instances should there exist more than two lords, Master and apprentice, at any given time. But two were necessary for the perpetuation of the Sith order. And so it fell to Sidious to complete Vader’s convalescence. As Emperor Palpatine, he had no need to reveal his Sith training and mastery to anyone, and for the moment Vader was his crimson blade. Let the galaxy think what it would of Vader: fallen Jedi, surfaced Sith, political enforcer … It scarcely mattered, since fear would ultimately bring and keep everyone in line. Yes, Vader was not precisely what he had bargained for. Vader’s legs and arms were artificial, and he would never be able to summon lightning or leap about like the Jedi had been fond of doing. His dark side training was just beginning. But Sith power resided not in the flesh but in the will. Self-restraint was praised by the Jedi only because they didn’t know the power of the dark side. Vader’s real weaknesses were psychological rather than physical, and for Vader to overcome them he would need to be driven deeper into himself, to confront all his choices and his disappointments. Powered by treachery, the Sith Master- apprentice relationship was always a dangerous game. Trust was encouraged even while being sabotaged; loyalty was demanded even while betrayal was prized; suspicion was nourished even while honesty was praised. In some sense, it was survival of the fittest. Fundamental to Vader’s growth was the desire to overthrow his Master. Had Vader killed Obi-Wan on Mustafar, he might have attempted to kill Sidious, as well. In fact, Sidious would have been surprised if Anakin hadn’t made an attempt. Now, however, incapable of so much as breathing on his own, Vader could not rise to the challenge, and Sidious understood that he would need to do everything in his power to shake Vader out of his despair, and reawaken the incredible power within him. Even at Sidious’s own peril …

So, I was listening to Outbound Flight on the way into work this morning and something about Palpy's plans doesn't quite track. How did no one in the galaxy after order 66 realize that Sidious was Palpatine? I mean yeah he sicked Vader on the Dim-moidinas, and his other to apprentices got axed And most of the Jedi. But there were plenty of other people who had to have dealt with him. in Sidious form. No way in hell there isn't someone out there some where spreading the news that your new emperor is a sith lord. AKA rebellious jedi that he just spent his inaugural address saying were the root of all evil. And then there's the pure stupidity of much of what he did there after. Calling his space sphere a "death" star???? Da fuck? Death troopers? Yeah, that's not totally fucking obvious or anything. And the names of his naval star destroyers? Come on dude why not just call yourself the evil empire that'll kill your ass if you step out of line and get it over with.
