Do you think blowing up a planet is worst than a bit of cannibalism?

There's this list of the top 100 cinema villains and Hannibal Lecter was number 1 while Darth Vader was number 3!!!! With Norman bloody Bates as number 2. I mean what did Hannibal do but eat a few lads and Norman? Please, oh sure he had a few screws loose but Vader blew up a planet, tortured his own daughter and helped kill his own pregnant wife and there was all those children. Even without all the other stuff, PLANETCIDE!!! A whole planet, billions of people and fluffy little animals!!!

@Allelse Well a good lawyer would argue he did not order the destruction of Alderaan and as for Padme, poor script aside, she was alive once he choked her and she just gave up on life (As she was no longer needed in the plot) but if we're talking war crimes, Vader if he had survived the Death Star, he would have been the trial of the century

@Reaverwolf They didn't even take what George had in mind for the sequels, they asked him to give them some written ideas he had and they ignored it. And yeah they ignored the expanded stuff which there is a ton of. Even if they wanted to use their own writers, they could have taken the other material and used it as a basis. And the emperor surviving by just somehow surviving? At least in the expanded it's got to do with soul moving into a clone body, I think, I don't remember so much anymore, I read most of it when I was a teenager.

@Allelse The Emperor coming back was from the Dark Horse comic book series, Dark Empire, which was never one of my favourites, but bringing him back in the last Disney movie was so dumb and just showed how they had painted themselves into a corner.

I think I have dark Empire on audio somewhere as well as the original radio plays

Well maybe in Vader's defence - Tarkin ordered the destruction of Alderaan / he did not know Leia was his daughter / And Padme died due to piss poor script writing 🤣

@Reaverwolf Hehe Oh I see!!! Devil's advocate over here. Well then he's an accessory to plantcide which is bound to still be a pretty long prison term, and true he didn't know, but still!!! Torturing somebody with that big black floaty thing. And his wife? Well I said helped kill his own wife, I mean who chokes their HUGELY pregnant wife like that.
