Everyone (rightly) gives JK shit for her names, but George Lucas was just like "I will give the evil guy who's secretly the protagonists father the name 'Dark Dad-guy!'"
There's a very clear distinction here between jowling kowling rowling doing it out of ignorance and spite and George Lucas' doing it out of ignorance and admiration
Well yes, Lucas is a much less shitty human than JK, I figured that went without saying around here.
Sure, but Lucas has a lot of fucked up views. Like check out his views on pedophilia as expressed when discussing Indiana Jones
Do I have to?
You don't, they're pretty much exactly what you fear
Yeah people will sometimes say the prequels are "for kids" but it makes a lot more sense if you imagine it was written by a child.
