What's in your 'head canon?'

I don't see Rey turning to The Dark Side either, but I do see Ben turning back to The Light.

Turning to "The Dark Side"? Turning back to "The Light"? WTF?? Why can't people just say "good" and "evil" anymore? Why do they insist upon clinging to these color metaphors as if they are the only phrases that can be used to indicate someone's moral compass?


Darkness is not always an indicator of evil or anything negative. Light is not always an indicator of good or anything good. But apparently, a lot of people are unaware of this . . . especially these days.

Umm, you do realize this is Star Wars we're talking about, where the Dark Side and Light Side have been talked about since the series started, and are very specific things?

Um, this is a concept present throughout the Star Wars saga, and is Anakin's whole tale?

When did that become a bad thing?

Yeah, the dark side of the force is not some euphemism, it's a literal, measurable thing. It shoots lighting at people...
