Luke Skywalker

Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope

Hey guys. It's been awhile since I made my last post, but I made a meme that Mark Hamill who was known for playing Luke Skywalker is the same actor who is going to play The Flying Dutchman in the new SpongeBob movie.

In case anyone you didn't know.

I Made it with colored pencils

If Qui Gon lived or if Obi Wan used Force Speed whatever it’s called

He looks great with Green maybe because he’s this guy father

Title is in the question, for those of you who've played Jedi Academy.

Now admittedly in the past, I did find this character kind of unlikeable and rather frustrating at times. But then as time went on, I guess my perception of him had changed and I realize that....he's not suppose to be the character people expect in Star Wars.

When people think of Jedi, they don't think of anything like how Rosh acts. But I feel like this is what people miss, in that Rosh is basically how an actual person would be...he really, really wants to be a Jedi right? Well so do a lot of people.

You know Rosh is excited, he's hyped up and he's clearly nervous about it and so tries to strike up a friend with Jaden Korr, who of course we play....but honestly let's be real, he's not how a person would realistically act. Like the average person. Rosh in his excitement to become a Jedi, doesn't really think clearly and tries to 'beat' Jaden, when that's not what a Jedi is all about.

Come to think of it, I think Rosh sort of mirrors Desann in a manner of speaking from Jedi Outcast. Rosh thinks he's being sort of held back, that his training isn't progressing fast enough....and then when he finally sees the opportunity to try and prove himself, well he immediately folds under the pressure, surrendering and falling to the Dark Side to gain more power.

Honestly this I feel is how many people would end up, so of course by the end Rosh learns a lesson, growing from said experiences and Luke Skywalker feels that he could still become a great Jedi Knight by the end of the game.

But anyway these are just my thoughts on the character, is he the best, most well written character? No, but I feel like the hate for him is overblown.

So what do you folks think? Am I onto something?

It's still as awesome as I remember it.

God I love Star Wars Cosplaying. I also got an epic Luke Skywalker Action Figure!

One of the many reasons I love Chelli Aphra, archaeology PhD dropout: she got Luke Skywalker into a tux! 😎

When I saw The Empire Strikes Back in recent times, I discovered something that I had never noticed as a kid, nor a teenager. I notice that the film has a couple of early signs that Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker is Luke's father.

Meaning the film hinted that Darth Vader is his father, as I mentioned throughout the first half of the original Star Wars trilogy.

These parts were early signs of the latter, even before we got a shocking twist scene with Luke and Darth Vader when Luke was defeated.

1.

In Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope, after Luke and Owen had an argument over Obi-Wan's whereabouts, Beru states that Luke was not just a father, but rather had too much of his father in him.

This scene marks the early signs of Vader's father twist in The Empire Strikes Back began.

2.

At Obi-Wan's home, Luke asks if he had fought in the Clone Wars, to which he confirms indeed that he was once a Jedi Knight with his "father". He said that his "father" used to be a "pupil of mine" until he turned evil, before concluding that he betrayed and murdered his father, foreshadowing Luke's wrong answer to Vader. However, he did not tell him that Darth Vader was his father.

3.

At the conversation scene with Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine, Palpatine reveals that the new emeny, Luke Skywalker, who is the "son of Skywalker", and tells Vader that he must not become a Jedi.

4.

During Luke and Yoda's chat at his house, Yoda says, "For Jedi was he. Powerful Jedi." Luke responded, "How could you know my father? You don't even know who I am."

5.

After Luke Skywalker defeats the hallucination of Darth Vader in the Dark Side cave, a decapitation head of Vader bursts, revealing Luke Skywalker on the inside, and an obvious hint for Luke and Vader's relationship.

So overall, I believe I found two scene with hidden spots that Darth Vader is Luke's father. What do you think?

If any more to come, let me know the comments.
