So, SCinemax has been playing the Stars Wars epic and I was watching Return when this thought popped into my head, What would Luke's Darth name be? Not Darth Skywalker ... that would hab been Anakin's name.So, what do you think it would have been? There was Darth MaulDarth Geritol (that CHEESE-BALL old guy)Darth Sidius (sp?) So ... any ideas?

I don't know if it's just me, but the whole "'Darth' is actually a title" deal seemed kind of ridiculous.  "Darth Vader" is clearly his name in the first 3 films.But, in the spirit of the spit, Luke would have been "Darth Whinesalotbutstilllessthenmypussyofafather."

It would have to reflect his personality as a Sith.Palpatine was Sidious because he was a sneaky bastard planning everything right under the Jedi's nose.Darth Maul was just an angry guy that Mauled things. "Dooku" was a Tyrant, obviously making his Darth Tyranus. And Annakin eventually went on with the emperor to invade the worlds of the Republic.

And this is an alien culture, so perhaps Darth is his first name, but it's also the name all Sith are given when they become a Sith (Was there any mention of the word Sith before 1999?)I think this whole Darth concept is the least retarded thing Lucas has introduced to ruin Star Wars.

Darth Brooks and Dartha Stewart were both fantastic.Bravo to you.I think ObiWan telling Luke that Anakin was betrayed by Darth always meant the internal struggle.Unless Lucas has ever revealed anything different on a documentary or on one of the DVDs why would we think he changed it after Star Wars ?I have no problem with the idea that Darth is a title more so than his name.After all Peter Cushing's actual title was Grand Moff Tarkin but didnt they also refere t him as General Tarkin or Governor Tarkin ?Its space and it was a long time ago in a galaxy far far away so who knows what those crazy foreigners were thinking.I did catch some of Phantom Menance the other day and I'm still disgusted by the cartoonish nature and pandering to characters in the earlier movies.Its been debated everywhere that the Jar Jar Binks character was truly awful.It could very well be the worst character, or at least in the top 10, in the history of cinema.The 2nd and 3rd films didnt seem to be nearly as childish ( but they did suck just as bad ).As far as the characters I thought it was lame to put a mini-Greedo, the Sand People, Rhyee-Eyees ( the thing that looked like a calf with 3 eyes ) and those kinda references as " cameos ".

Nobody.It was an open and shut case.Another perspective on whether you use his whole name or not is addressing a police officer.You can say either Officer Tank-Nutts or Officer while his co-workers/superiors could get away with calling him just Tank-Nutts.

i think its similar to medieval times when knights would become sir whatever his name is, and you had barons and lords, etcthere are even times in the movies where he's referred to as lord vaderas for as the sith name being used in the first trilogy(4,5,6) without watching the whole trilogy again i cant recall any mentions of itthought obi won may have said it when he first meets luke and brings him back to his palce but he doesnt but it raised two questions1. obi brings out the lightsaber and says your father wanted you to have it when you were old enough, but we see that doesnt happen2. why would obi call him a jedi named darth vader, when he was a jedi he was anakin it wasnt until he became a sith that he got the name darth vader, i know its done to let the audience know what hes talking about but in the scheme of things it doesnt make sense

Obviously he doesn't want to reveal to him that he is his father. Whether or not he planned on telling him eventually is up in the air, but it's irrelevant to this conversation. He can't just be like, "Here's your father's old lightsaber. Oh, by the way, he's the most unbelievably evil person in the Universe who betrayed and exterminated almost all the Jedi, and now you, farmboy, have to go kill him." Remember, Obi and Yoda's intentions were for Luke to kill Vader, not turn him back. He had to want to destroy Vader, easiest way to instill that drive in Luke? Tell him he betrayed and murdered his father. I mean it is the truth, from a certain point of view.

They were showing the originals in a row again last night.At times Grand Moff Tarkin was tougher on Vader than the Emperor.Tarkin barks at him as Vader a few times.When the Emperor gets off the shuttle in Jedi he tells Vader " rise my friend " while Vader's kneeling.There's a great scene when Lando gets the Falcon to jump to hyperspace right at the end of Empire, before the Star Destroyer can use it's tractor beam, and Vader walks out kinda pissed.The one commander guy surely thought he was gonna get killed and as Vader walks out there's a guy just standing there messing with some speak and spell thing and he kinda looks over his shoulder and has a look of relief on his face.Also a scene in Empire when Luke slashed Vader w/ the lightsaber and Vader just yells out in pain and there's really no damage to Vader's suit.OK every other time a saber hits something it cuts it clean so why is Vder's shoulder any different ?And dont give me any shit that his suit is special because that doesnt work in Jedi.

If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."That's the great part about it.  What drove annakin to the dark side, the immortality that the emperor promised him, was found through the light.
