yea i might need a nap after all this excitement. 😖leep: i promise that ill keep all my debates(with you at least) on a SW level.
So with that said, i think when he taps into the darkside, its just so strong and he's so strong WITH it, that it just eats away at him, like OB1 said in TPM, the form symbiant circle, (did i type that right?) he feeds off the darkside, and the darkside feeds off him, and in a way, making them both stronger.
k, I'm confused. They feed off each other & yet makes him deformed? If they do form a symbiant circle, wouldn't it be for mutual gain & not cause harm? I get that it feeds him 'spritually' so to speak, but why the defromity then? And what negative impact would he have on the force in this symbiosis?

see, i think the opposite.
the line that clues me in is "i'll be able to stop people from dying"
darth vader is a man who SHOULD be dead, but is kept alive by (imho) a combination of cyborg parts and usage of the dark side. i believe that line was put in there as a hint to the effect of the dark side...that through using it, one can cheat death. so perhaps sidious is not deformed, but just a really really really old walking talking breathing corpse...an abomination.
through EU and video games we are led to believe just the opposite, that using the darkside is what corrupts the body, so that would lead to the conclusion that the dark side shortens the life span, right? in canon though, we see no proof of this EU darkside corruption theory.
another thought:
anakin in ep6 looks like an old man with horrible battle scars and no hair. other than that, there is NOTHING deformed about him. after 25+ years of being evil...should he not be deformed as well?
well bilbo...what i meant was, we all know that Sidious/Palps gets his power from the darkside of the force, right? well what im saying is the force is feeding off of him to make itself stronger and recycle it back to him and vice versa, but since its taking it out of him, it causes him to look the way he does, BUT at the same time, it allows him to stay alive while being that old, deformed, decayed or however we can describe him, when it would probably kill the average joe.
I dint know if i explained that right or made it more confusing, but in essence, kind of like how Moses aged 30 - 40 years just by seeing a fraction of gods power, but at the same time, Moses was gaining all his "powers" from god, even though if he would have stayed longer or seen "more" of God, it would have killed him...know what im saying?
then i say we raid skywalker ranch and make him make-up answers if he doesnt already have them. but yea, i bet we'll have a lot of quetions. I know this has nothing to do with this particular thred but, I think th efirst time we see chewy, it should be when Han helps save him, thus showing how chewy ows him a life-debt. just my opinion
