does anyone here like star wars?
I've recently become a little obsessed with the Star Wars universe. I'd love to hear about everyone's favorite characters, favorite plotlines, hot takes and more (please don't spoil for TCW/Rebels because I've just started it but everything else is fair game. I haven't seen the sequels but don't really plan on watching them).

Yes, I do.

This is for the first 6 movies.

DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU WANT SPOILERS

Cool.

So, the Rebels are not the good guys, in the Star Wars Universe. In my second time through them, I have notived several things that prove this point.

When the Empire tested the Death Star, they picked a very low-population planet.

The Rebels have random names for their ships, so that people will attack them, whereas the Empire has the Death Star, and the Star Destroyers, that drive people away from the ships.

The Death Star wasn't a high priority endeavour. They had it on hold for something like 10 years. Instead of creating an instrument of death, they took care of their empire.

"The Sith will rule again! And there will be peace." The Rebels took this broadcast, an shortened it to the first bit, to make it seem like they wanted war.

The Empire was actually a Democracy! If you notice, during the counsel meeting, there are ambassadors for a lot of places. They voted on things, they weren't threatened at all.

The Rebels attacked unprovoked, all the time, and the Empire only attacked in the last movie (I think).

That's all I can think of, at the moment. This post will only grow.
