/starwars/ - Star Wars

but the rebels are supposed to represent america, while the empire is england.

Honestly had the Empire been symbolic for, say, the Latin American rightist juntas, they would have been better. It would have been actually thought provoking. It's not like they weren't the foremost among nations to being another Nazi Germany, at least in terms of sheer political and religious mass murder. At least it would have been fun to bring it up around Reagan and other people who were pushing for the same policies of oppression there.

Guatamala, probably the worst of them (which is saying something) was also IIRC where the outer Yavin Base part was filmed.

Yeah, the freaking REBEL FREEDOM FIGHTERS BAND'S HQ WAS BASED IN NEW NAZI-LAND.

The Empire's uniforms and ships are way cooler than the Rebels. That's all that matters.

>An Empire

>Good

possibly

>Empire ruled by the Sith

FFFUUUUUUUCK NO.

>Hey lets create a DEATH STAR and blow a planet up just because we're edgy and about unlimited power for its own sake, because blowing up an entire planet is completely reasonable and it definitely won't look like an overreaction to almost everybody ever in this case, what could go wrong? It's not like the rebels just stole our death star plans and this won't just fuel their efforts even more, oh wait they did and it will? Shit

Empire should have hired better PR people and told old Sheev about a thing called the Streisand effect

>>8550

Maybe had the Empire not been ruled by literally evil incarnate.

Embed would have been interesting though.

>>8588

holy shit

>>8588

What about the high ground?

>>8623

fuck yo high ground, fool.

>>8588

I want to see this, in a comic, in a film, in a FUCKING HAPPY MEAL JUST ANYWHERE

>>8588

I want this….

>>8550

11

then I turned 16 and realized that was wrong.

Nope. Retards can't be the good guys, Blowing up Alderaan, the "entire of Legion best troops" falling over a lame trick and surrending the shield generator that easily, the stupidity of the Death II's laser operators (Come on, wasting fire on corvettes while the rebel flagship was there?)

>>8708

lol wut

the ds2 was constantly wiping out mon cal cruisers, not corvettes

>>8711

This; how long has it been since you've seen RotJ?

>>8588

Hitler dubs.

I want that ending. ;_;

>>8555

Nice trips, but I think Lucas said that the Empire was Western colonialism or some hippy shit. So by that logic the Rebels were Viet Cong.

>>8646

>He is too dangerous to be kept alive!" Said by who, regarding whom?

Has complete control of the administrative and juridical wings of the Republic

Went full-on Julius Caesar with the whole "abolish the senate make me dictator-for-life"

Jedi purge

Communisation of the economy

His government instituted apartheid on non-humans

Citizen rights were slashed

But no no, keep doing your "deep" analysis on why the Jedi are the equivalent of the Sith and your autistic McEdge reasoning on why the Dark Side is best side

>>8550

>/pol/-tier starwars memes

Go away

>>8830

Shut up xenophile. Aliens and humans should not mix.

>>8893

not that they can, anyways

>>8893

Twi'lek women were made for mixing though.

>>8830

Autocracy > democracy. This should be obvious by now. Masses should never have the handle of power- beyond the sword of damocles.

A reminder Luke killed thousands of people when he destroyed the Death Star

That was genocide

>>8907

I bet the Death Star had millions on it. It was the size of a moon.

>>8908

dunno if this is considered canon anymore but wookieepedia states there was a total of almost 2 million people on the death star at all times.

that includes crew: Imperial Navy and Army (342,953) and Stormtroopers (25,984)

>>8555

The empire is the USA, the rebels are the CSA, the confederate states that rebel against the union. Darth Vader freed all the slaves, just like Lincoln. Mon Mothma is a stand in for Jefferson Davis. Many copperheads died bringing us this information.
