"He Could Even Keep the Ones He Cared About From Dying"

I'm still waiting for competent!Luke. If they're going to go into another all-out Galactic shindig for the metaphysical rule of the Galaxy, Luke should step up and wreck some assholes before he gets taken out. I'd like an attack on the Sith homeplanet itself. (Note: am current only to the point where Luke is beating up Rancors on Dathomir.)

oh true. he didn't even have two arms... They neutered him the second they had luke pin him in his chair for the length of a conversation.... In that single moment we realized the ONLY thing keeping this series alive was LUke's misguided morality.

take that back. He had 2 hands at the end after getting his third hand cut off by Jaina in her first assault.

I think they should have had Mara kill him, and then do Mara Jade&Ben vs Dark!Luke.

Now that would have been tragedy.

they started well. I liked where Caedus didn't actually mean to do the evil things. his torment over his "sacrifice" (which since when does a sith have to make a sacrifice... none of the rest of them ever had to....) it was the second he killed mara and was rewarded with magical powers that the whole thing went downhill. can you say RPG LEVEL UP?

Thats nothing. I just finished Battlestar Galactica. On that show you need love to get pregnant and people trip out seeing angels once an episode. Good show though.

I have it on good faith that the individual in question argues with the less enlightened folk at another forum about the necessity of limiting Luke Skywalker's power through ways beyond writer's fiat.

link?
Edit: I don't mind writer fiat. It's a necessary evil. I just don't like incompetence. If they had let Luke buckle down and actually kill the goddamn kid we'd be having amuch different convo.

Why would Luke go dark? Jacen wasn't that awesome.

Oy.. Welcome back Gideon.

I don't understand the concept of "necessary evil". If it's necessary, how can it be evil?

I take it the individual in question probably believes that since Luke doesn't use his awesome (oh yes, his awesome powers) powers in every situation, that he doesn't really possess them? : ) I think that is probably what the individual would say.

I am more of the opinion that they have tied luke into a moral corner where he believes using the force to create pure carnage is wrong.

Oh, btw, what does the individual in question think of the fact that now Luke has killed 2 abeloths, but she keeps coming back for more? (like your mom did last night)?

I actually know some of those people in RL... And NO! I, truejedi (who would be Jedi GrandMaster if Raz ever freaking came back) am the true hub of Luke fans. Myself. By myself. And trucelent is my minion.

There were some major halucinations going down in that boy's eyeball. He saw Allana being evil, Luke being evil, and at some point a lightsaber was getting...........MAD DUNKS

Darth Malgus novel comes out in 2 days. I hope it doesn't suck.

Isn't that one of the central tenants of the Jedi? A Jedi uses the Force for defence, to protect, but never to attack. Stuff like that?

I'm sure the individual in question believes that a holistic examination of Luke's powers reveals that he's not some sort of untouchable demi- god, but that's not exactly the point of the topic that he was discussing.

There are those who believe that Luke should be some unstoppable superwarrior. The individual in question believes that this would be foolish, which is why you hardly ever see that Luke.

The individual in question is not impressed with Abeloth, and doesn't think Luke really is impressed with her either.

ohmigosh. literally LMFAO. hurry, he is escaping from aboves. you have to turn it turnwise.

aHEM. Sorry about that. What I meant is that writer fiat is necessary to prevent power creep; Luke's status presently is like Windex: he can fix every problem. Figuring out a reason for him to hold back/refrain is important. It's just that being incompetent sucks, because then we get things like Sith Cyborg Lady dueling him to a standstill. BLUH BLUH INCONSISTENT

i am profiling this comic. And i have never profiled anything. ever.
