One of mine must be Vader slaughtering his way through the Rebel Ship at the end of
#RogueOne. It shows Vader's immense power, both with the force and a lightsabre, + the fear among the Rebels and their brave dedication to the Alliance. Vader and Anakin become one in this scene1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

I found that moment to be incredibly indulgent and relishing in his power instead of making him scary. You can tell because the whole audience clapped in thunderous applause. For the bad guy. Murdering the good guys. How that can be a favorite moment speaks to it. Its bargaining.

Also, I realize I'm being harsh on this. But I am doing so for a reason because I think it's everything problematic about the adult way we think of this franchise in indulgent terms.

Hey man, everyone loves
#StarWars for their own reasons! It's by no means the best scene ever, but it made a bad-ass character even more bad-ass! I'm a Prequels lover as well, so I live for anything where a lightsaber is involved!1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Look, I understand it's only a movie, etc. etc. But what I'm saying is I think those reasons are genuinely crappy and finding Vader to be "badass" is a huge problem. It's like watching Walter White and being like "man he's so badass!" it's indulgent. And shitty. And immoral.

And I'll put it this way, I'm not casting this so much on you and your reaction, i cast it upon the movie for catering to that.
