    I never trust critics.
    It's basically a job where you're paid to be an ******* to other people's work. I'm fine with people having their own opinions and writing reviews and posting them on the web or publishing them, that's fine. There are great analyses to be read about many pieces of cinema and other forms of art, and people take different stances and approach it from their own profession. But I was never impressed by someone who's only job is to watch other people's work then write **** about it from the comfort of his own home.

    That would basically be like me giving lip to Julius Caesar because I'm really good at playing Rome Total War.

    Edit: Gotta star out the whole word.

    There's nothing wrong with that at all... hell, I'd love to have a job like it.

    So how is everybody today? I'm fine...other than the fact that for a while I was stuck outside during a tornado/crazy storm and legit had to be dragged inside some random restaurant in order to be safe (the reason I was outside is my sister's fault. I blame her). I also now know that the combination of tons of rain and heavy wind is not a good combination when they are being thrown at you at mass speeds. Oh well. Don't worry I'm fine not that you guys cared. ;)

    That would just be mean to Darth Vader, rubbing it in his face like that.
    Luke: "I care."

    Darth Vader is dead... so yeah, I don't think it matters to him.

    Yeah, I guess that's possible... what with his self-loathing and everything. :p

    He wouldn't. Take away his arms and legs and ability to breathe and I guarantee he'd hate you. I can almost hear him hollering it...

    Pretty sure Vader would come across almost exactly like the Black Knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. He'd still think he could kick your @$$.

    The reveal scene in ESB would have gone much differently if that were true. Luke takes a chunk out of Vader's arm and, instead of going mad and lopping off Luke's hand, he simply says it's only a flesh wound. Luke would never have found out the truth under those circumstances.

    Great minds think alike?

    No, Luke still would have found out the truth. Vader wanted Luke with him to overtake the emperor and rule the galaxy as father and son. Either way he wasn't going to kill Luke right there.

    I had a conversation with my friend, that led me to making my first, only (and probably the best ever) demotivational:
