Musings on Vader

One man's love for Darth Vader, from MSNBC.com

"The purity ends with "Empire." The planets stay pure (desert, ice, swamp, forest), but light (Luke) and dark (Darth) are forever intertwined. Back then I was against it, and felt betrayed by George Lucas. I was a whiny teenager myself who craved absolutes. As an adult I appreciate the revelation. Luke's dilemma is every boy's dilemma. You mean my father's not a great man? You mean my father's a dick? You mean I might become like him? Purity is for children, and first films."
All I can say is, "Word."

By the way -- it's not just boys who wonder this.
