Favorite Star Wars character?
- Thread starter Bor Gullet

Vader/Anakin,
Used to not like the Anakin half of the character, but the animated shows fixed that.
Clone Wars Anakin plus Vader is perfection.
Luke is close 2nd and was my favorite prior to the Clone Wars.
Revan 3rd.

Dexter Jettster is pretty cool too.
He knows about super assassin shit and makes a mean cup o' joe.
He should have gotten the solo movie.

Almost voted for her but I just like Vader too much. It's fucking Vader man. The most iconic villain in fiction right there.
I'm not a diehard Star Wars fan but it's probably Kylo Ren for me, there are layers and emotions in that character and that performance that have a substance that these movies hadn't really gotten to before. I don't think there's a better show of acting in any of these movies than what Driver does in TFA and especially TLJ.
Easily Kylo Ren for me, a complex character with compelling struggles, that has a perfect mix of being vulnerable and being badass/scary. Easily a character that could have gone terribly wrong with the wrong actor but Adam Driver's performance is breathtaking.
Palpatine or Luke would come second and third. Palpatine just dominates what few scenes he is in, while Luke has extremely satisfying ends to his character arcs that are among my favorite moments in all of cinema.

Darth Plagueis
I've been digging into Legends lately and I've found myself absolutely fascinated by the character of Plagueis . Should Disney go forward with a Bane or Revan series, I hope to see his story told as well. I think it heighten my appreciation of Episode 1. Certainly did for me.
Some of my favorite lightsaber duels are becoming the ones told in the audiobooks. This exert takes place after a meeting with Plagueis (as Hego Damask) attended with his Banking Clan. An intruder has broken into the perimeter and it turns out that it is actually a second apprentice his former master trained to assassinate him. It's a cool moment you don't see in the movies, where it's darkside vs darkside and I recommend anyone interested to take a listen. (Especially fans Ep.3)
The scene is the first 13 minutes.

Before the prequels it was Yoda. After the prequels he's close to my least favorite.
But my headcanon is that nothing after the OT is real, so Yoda.
Naw, what's been seen can't be unseen. Fuck it, it's Leia now. But I didn't watch The Last Jedi. Maybe there's something in there to ruin her, too.

Palpatine. What's with the dumb name jokes though? Give one of the best villains of all time some dignity.
Runner up is Vader. Not Anakin, they're different.

As much flack as the prequels rightfully get, it's fucking amazing how much they were able to do with Palpatine. A 4d chess mastermind, played by an actor who delights in chewing scenery, who actually wins by the end? Marvelous.
He comes back...
And tries to intimidate someone with his lightsaber through a hologram. What a fucking cornball.
