>Lord Vader, I find it highly inappropriate for you to bring up religion during a meeting.

There are three thousand lifeforce energy fields on record, Lord Vader, but I'm sure yours is the real one.

>>211796275 (OP)
why does he have Gushers fruit snacks on his uniform?

Vader should have known the unsaid rule of not bringing up politics or religion in the work place. Admiral Motti was right.

>>211796275 (OP)
>insulting his superior
classic rookie mistake

Vader goes from fucking with a reddit atheist to murdering his subordinates left and right for every little thing over two movies.

>>211796275 (OP)
>Cool it with the anti-semitic remarks.

>>211796719
Almost like his life got a bit more stressful in between movies.

>>211796275 (OP)
Motti is my guy, wish he was in more.

>>211796275 (OP)
The Death Star isn't the ultimate power in the universe though. At the moment, in current canon, its the Holdo Maneuver.

>>211796719
Well the Death Star blew up under his watch and he found out he had a son

>>211796957
i think he always knew he had twins but he never knew what happened to them. it was such a haze being vader king of the imperial empire that he could never really focus efforts on finding them. but when he came close to them he could sense it through the force

>>211797209

>Your entire office is festooned with Buddhist prayer flags you hypocritical fuck

>>211796275 (OP)
The Galactic Empire was built on Jedu-Sithanic values

>>211799386
This

>>211796719
Vader would have killed Motti then and there if Tarkin hadn't stopped him.

>>211799320
Yeah, he isn't using those crosses in a Buddhist context.

>>211796275 (OP)
To be fair what has the force actually done that’s stronger than destroying the planet

>>211796719
Tarkin was one of literally two people in the galaxy who could stop him if he felt like killing someone, and even then that was out of personal respect rather than obligation.

>>211801354
Ideologies are the reason the planet blew up in the first place, you dumb fuck.

>>211796333
Do you not? What do you do when you crave a Gusher?

>>211796503
Ahkshully, Vader isn't formally part of the navy. He's like the dietary advisor of the President, if the President were some wrinkly old space monk.

>>211802670
He's effectively a Commissar, meaning he can do whatever the fuck he wants provided he doesn't piss off someone with more clout than him.
Since that pool is Tarkin and the Emperor, mouthing off is a really stupid idea.

>>211796719
He was under a lot of stress in Empire. The Death Star thing didn't bother him too much, but people kept fucking up in a personal matter to him.

>>211796719
I mean... The super weapon they were working on for 14;years blew up and the second one they were constructing had to be rebuilt because of a flaw, tarkin was the only one besides the emperor who could check him, he found out the emperor lied to him and his children were alive, and own son blew up the death star and he was tortured for failing. I mean he's uhhh pissed

>>211801354
Destroying the Death Star

>Hurr the Death Star is insignificant compared to the power of The Book of Mormon
>See how fuckin' cringe that sounds, dude?

>>211796719
first off, Ep 5 takes place like 4 years after ep 4
second off, the Emperor was pitting Tarkin and Vader against each other to see who would be his new #2. With Tarkin Dead, Vader basically had carte blanche to do whatever he wanted so long as the Emperor had no issue with it

>>211796275 (OP)
>thought Vader was a cool badass villain when I was a kid
>rewatch the movies as an adult and realize he was a glorified battered housewife
Motti did nothing wrong

>>211803580
Vader has always been a manchild yeah

>say you don't believe in person's religion
>person provides concrete evidence to convince you
Vader is what religious people should aspire to be

>>211799320
Yeah but he didn’t drag it to the meeting

>>211796719
He does have an arc...

>>211803283
i've never seen anyone choke a bitch with the boom of mormon tho

>>211807075
Motti never denied the force's existence, just its uselessness in finding the rebel base or the stolen plans.

>>211808083
While choking, he should have struggled out, "Still doesn't disprove my point!"

>>211808852
kek

>>211796333
> Lozenges for after Vader chokes them.
> Pens to write shit down.

So everyone just accepted that the Jedi needed to be purged and just believed Sheev at face value?

Weird that only Bail and Padme are close to the Jedi when there are tens of thousands of senators in the Republic

>>211813055
They were unapproachable though weren’t they? I was under the impression a majority were out in the war.

>>211813055
Palps had also turned them into military targets. They were the hyper-competent, extremely dangerous generals in this devastating war. And after the assassination attempt mere hours after the heads of the confederacy fell it becomes a little more believable that the general population sees them as dangerous power grubbers.

>>211796936
>ultimate power in the universe is holodomor
space famine?

>>211801354
Nihilus did some stuff if we wanna count legends.

>>211796719
He's a reddit moderator.

>>211801090
Gonk.

Why was everyone acting like the Jedi were some long-forgotten myth when half the people in that room were old enough to personally remember the Republic and the Jedi order? It was less than 20 years ago.

>>211817206
There were only about 10,000 Jedi during the Prequels to look after a galaxy with trillions and trillions of people in it. Statistically you are very unlikely to ever encounter one, much less see one do something cool and combine that with state propaganda diminishing them into a bunch of schizos that tried to overthrow the government with claims that the Chancellor was part of an satanic cult that manipulated all the galaxy's corporations and both sides of the war to consolidate power and allow him the freedom to consume all the Twi'lek child adrenochrome he wanted and live forever on a spooky throne.

>>211817617
the people who were recruited into the empire's upper ranks were definitely aware of the Jedi and were surely educated about them in whatever military academy they attended. I bet most of them even directly interacted with the Jedi, since they were probably part of the republic's military management and were just carried over when it was reorganized into the imperial army or whatever.

>>211817206
I really don't see how anyone ever supposedly acted like this, the OT never implied it and Luke is a young man whose father was a renowned Jedi Knight, very recent. Motti says "ancient religion" because that's what it is, he doesn't mean that it hasn't been practiced since antiquity. Christianity is an ancient religion too.

>>211817206
I always thought it was strong arm propaganda. Our media rewrites modern events all the time.

>>211817206
My cousin on Corellia is currently serving a life-sentence in some Imperial prison on Dathomir, just because he said the word "Jedi" in some cantina. It is safer to just pretend the Jedi never existed

>>211796331
They're literally all the same one under different interpretations.

>>211796719
He was such a bitch in 6

>>211796333
Because that movie is from 1977 and was shot on crappy film. It was shown in theaters on 1970s / 1960s projectors that was streched to fit on a 40 foot screen, so people wouldn't notice the fruit snacks on his uniform.

Wasn't this society well known to be founded by a wizard that fought a little green thing for total power of all these humans? Wasn't it all recorded on holofilm?
