May the Fourth be with those issues!
SHEEV Palpatine is cool AF. FatBurt said so on Post #72.
Force Skype! isn't awful. Lordban contradicted himself on Post #172.
Overpowered Grogu isn't OP. Lordban stole that one from Darth Punk on Post #179.
The dumb assassination plot with a bug in AOTC is actually brilliant. Lady_Belligerent said so on Post #186.
Palpatine in TROS is the best thing in the whole 9 episodes! Jedi_Sith_Smuggler_Droid said so on Post #196. Darth Tunick tried to disagree, but Superwatto would not have it.
Everybody wise knew Leia was Luke's sister all along. Leia becoming Luke's sister is as it should be. Jedi_Sith_Smuggler_Droid said so on Post #282.
Not killing Han off in TESB or ROTJ apparently wasn't a missed opportunity. Also, Sauntaero remembered Luke and Leia are siblings by Post #287.
Lady_Belligerent didn't really have an opinion over Yoda meeting Chewbacca, but Jedimarine asked, and she answered on Post #311.
The entire B plot of TLJ isn't awful. Jedi Knight Fett said so on Post #329. It would be mean of me to say what I think about that statement xD
Including comedy is never awful. Sauntaero reminded us all of this tenet of True Wisdom on Post #340.
Greedo shooting first is the natural order of things. Come on, Han Solo is the good guy. At least according to Jedi_Sith_Smuggler_Droid, who said so on Post #346.
Sorry, Wocky. I know you think Not explaining Sifo-Dyas is quite awful, but enough people differed, until Lordban did the vulture thing on Post #365.
Darth Punk correctly pointed out that it is wrong to say The Whole Culture Is One Big Helmet on Post #385. The whole culture is plot armor.
Not signing Gennedy Tartakovsky for LFL animation was a sensible choice, as Darth Smurf reminded us on Post #411. By the way, who?
Shooting all of ROTJ in Cali to save money is an excellent way, and Jabba-wocky wisely pointed it out. If only it hadn't taken until Post #457...
I have a bad feeling about this, Lady_Belligerent said so on Post #478.
This is a rebellion, right? Well, I rebel! said Darth Punk on Post #510, unlike Jyn Erso herself.
I don't like sand, said Lady_Belligerent on Post #511, somehow ruling sand as not awful in the process.
A New Hope re-released as Episode IV is how it was always meant to be. Jedimarine said so on Post #550. Maybe they are George Lucas in disguise!
Ewok movies, Ewok cartoons, Ewoks! Lady_Belligerent wants all of them! Send them to her at Post #559.
The invention of the motion picture was proudly defended. Lordban arrived in the La Ciotat train station on Post #587.
Not shooting the ST in 1999 wasn't the worst that could have happened. Lordban said so on Post #631.
Jango Fett is dumb isn't awful, said Jedimarine on Post #649, cutting the grass underneath Darth Punk's feat. Vulture! the worst of them said.
Han's nanosecond-precision-piloting in TFA is the mark he has in common with the greatest geeks and gamers, like perhaps Jedi_Sith_Smuggler_Droid, who twitched exactly right on time for this elimination on Post #691.
Of course it's Jabba-wocky who asserted once and for all that Inserting Jabba in ANH isn't awful on Post #695. Who else?
Shmi's death is a natural part of life. Lady_Belligerent invited us to rejoice for her joining the Force on Post #742.
Rule with RESPECT? Lady_Belligerent has no respect. Look at Post #752 for proof.
Are you an angel? Of course Lordban isn't. See Post #825 for further information.
Jar Jar stepping in Bantha poodoo is just a harmless joke. No, actually, it stinks, Darth Punk, no matter what you had to say on the matter on Post #840.
Lady_Belligerent explained for us all the Prophecy/Chosen One/Virgin Birth Nonsense on Post #851. Maybe she had a hand in it!
Lady_Belligerent no theenks Jar Jar is awful. Sheesa bombard heesa greatestmost evar on Post #872.
Lordban thinks Removing the Wookiee army from the OT was the right call, according to Post #889. Seriously, in an era of practical effects, do you even realize how much hair would have to be cleaned off clothing and stages?
It certainly isn't an issue that Rey is OP. Why did Lordban even bother bring it up if he was going to take it down on Post #907?

As of Post #912.

 

Maclunky -4

If funny stuff isn't bad, we can't penalize the funniest moment of the whole saga.

EDIT: To be clear, funny stuff is terrible, but the wisdom of the crowd prevails. And anyway, this is the best funny thing so it should lose this contest to all the other incidents of humor in the saga.
