Darth Sidious

>Darth Sidious

Bravo Lucas. Very subtle.

Why not just go ahead and name him Mr. Evil Badguy?

Sleazebaggino

Darth Icky

Lucas a cunt

Lucas has never been subtle

Daily reminder that Darth Vader is a play on the words "Dark Invader"

>character suddenly turns evil
>makes sure this is clear by making him kill little children for no reason

some great character names you missed are Commander Nefarious, Captain I'm a Bad Guy, and Admiral Bone-to-pick

the point was to eradicate the jedi so there would be no possible power or retaliation afterwards. the kids could grow up and rekt shit

>Vader

Vader is Dutch for Father.

Don't forget Luke Starkiller.... BECAUSE HE KILLS THE DEATH STAR.
wait

Pure coincidence famalam

Which is unironically a complete coincidence

lucas is not subtle at all. Darth vader literally translates to "dark father"

And Vader was no one's father when Lucas wrote the original Star Wars, what's your point?

I don't get it.

What do you guys think of prequel memes?

>Darth Sidious
>Dart Tyranus
>Darth Maul

does Maul mean anything or is the only name that isn't obvious?

maul
môl
verb

1.
wound (a person or animal) by scratching and tearing.

Pretty great

S'good

...

I'm unironically beginning to love r/prequelmemes

Ha

Narcissa Malfoy. Bravo

It's "Vater", you faggot and germans don't even pronounce V the same way as english-speakers, it sounds more like F.

>Dutch=German
?

say what you want about plinkett but his reviews perfectly encapsulate what is so wrong with the prequels

Sorry, I misread.

He's a sith retard, everyone's supposed to know he's evil

Pretty sure he was just fucking with people when he suggested Icky.

His name is Sheev though

The dumb thing about the prequels is that they're prequels. Literally everything is already spoiled by virtue of a superior trilogy that predates these shitty new movies by like a quarter of a century.
Who the fuck cares why vader is in the suit? It doesn't matter. Its a visual metaphor. As soon as they introduce "senator palpatine" who fucking cares, you already know hes the emperor and behind it all. We dont need three dumb, boring movies to tell us what we already know with a bunch of details that don't really matter and actively subvert what made the originals resonate.

STFU It could have been worse.

He could've been named Darth Icky

I always wondered why Lucas even bother to give him a sith name instead of just referring to him as the Dark Lord of the Sith before being exposed as Palpatine.

>Sheev
>evil
How to spot OT plebs

Was have the Dutch got to do with star wars?

>Insidious = bad
>Sidious = good

What was Lucas REALLY trying to tell us?

Nobody likes the Dutch

...

Sidious doesn't come from insidious, it's from "side" and "hideous", I.e. his side (the dark side) is hideous. Quite poetic actually, Shakespearean almost.

>Implying the prequels aren't a literal figurative dutch oven

>Murders his entire family
>Start a galaxy-wide war that kills millions just so he can create the Empire
>Intentaionaly lengthen the war

Totally not a bad guy
