Can any thinking person
leave the theater believing that the United States is the Rebel Alliance and
not the Empire? I write this as a Mac-owning American who has shopped at Whole
Foods at least four times in his life. In other words, I am awake but careless.
Why does the Empire want
to control the universe? Is it based on our acceptance that they are simply
evil people? I think so. But evil is a pop culture fantasy. Why not just make
it about money or fear or loneliness.
Why should storm
troopers bother with their armor if it cannot protect them from a simple
blaster?
Reddit:
“Not everyone can afford a blaster, and a lot of underground
thugs and stuff have projectile-based weapons, which the armor is effective
against. Also a weapon of psychological terror.”

Me: “Did everyone really
need to die at the end of Rogue One?”
Vicky: “It seemed more
accurate given that it’s a Death Star.”
