Clone Wars, S1

[Hound of UIster]

Then why does the Emperor need the Death Star to blow up planets?

Same reason why he needs Vader or Tarkin or the Stormtroopers or all those Star Destroyers so he doesn't have to do these things personally.

If Sidious was anything, he was a delegator

Not if he expects people to watch the movies in numerical order.

It's too late for me, then; I saw them in release order. I'm pretty sure he expected a lot of the TPM audience to be made up of people who had seen the OT. But if the same implication were to come later in the viewing order rather than earlier, it wouldn't ultimately make any difference, because it would still be in there.

The "cannot" comes from the fact that a ten year old is not a moral actor. That's not arbitrary, that's the way human beings are. I didn't invent the way human beings develop a moral sense as they grow, or the fact that ten year olds don't have the same moral discernment as they do at 20, so there's no sense complaining to me about it. I'm just pointing it out as an obvious fact.

That's all irrelevant. The point is that he's going to remember Mace shitting on him when he's older. It doesn't depend on whether or not he has a sufficient quality of "moral discernment" or whatever. I'm not talking about a fall to the dark side here.

If he thought that, he was wrong.

I don't know... these lines sound a lot like certain aspects of drug addiction to me:

If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will...

You don't know the power of the dark side. I must obey my master.
