Am I the only one who doesn’t like how the Insomniac Spider-Man games make the villains look sympathetic? Like, I hate that!
"Luke proved that attachment was a good thing and that the Jedi were all dogmatic and wrong"
is a take that fundamentally misunderstands both Luke as a character and the entire point behind Star Wars and the Jedi religion.
Luke didn't act out of attachment. If he did he would have killed Palpatine and Vader in a desperate attempt to save his friends.
Let's actually compare this to mister attachment aka Anakin, shall we.
If Anakin was in a position where some guy (for example Dooku) was responsible for Padmé, Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, Rex etc. being in current life threatening danger, he would have killed that man and anyone who stood in his way. If there was another guy claiming to be his father that might have thrown him off for a bit but in pure rage and terror of what might happen to the people he loves he would have 10000% killed him, father or not (he literally tries to kill his surrogate father / brother out of attachment and greed and later succeeds IN THE MOVIES).
Luke however chooses AGAINST acting out of attachment. He doesn't let his fear for his loved ones control him. The literal moment he crashes out and eventually almost kills Vader is when Vader mentions Leia. His attachment to her led him to react with rage in a desperate attempt to protect her but then he realizes that that's WRONG. That he's playing into Palpatine's hands and giving himself over to the dark side, so he stops. He chooses not to become what Anakin let himself be turned into.
Luke's motivation for saving Vader is not attachment - it's compassion.
Attachment is to act on behalf of yourself. Attachment is choosing your own feelings over what the people you love would want. Attachment is sacrificing everything your wife stood for, choking her to unconsciousness because she doesn't react the way you want her to and trying to kill your own brother out of greed and jealousy. Attachment is selfish love - love that is about YOU and not the people around you.
Compassion is SELFESS love. Compassion is choosing others over yourself. Compassion is valuing the ideals and wants of the people you love - not just wanting to keep them by your side at all cost. Compassion is tossing away your lightsaber and letting yourself get tortured and almost killed because you REFUSE to act out of attachment and let anyone be hurt but yourself. Compassion is also to sacrifice yourself to save your child even though it gains you neither a better future nor him staying in your life.
Luke's compassion motivated Anakin to act out of compassion as well. That's what the movie is about, guys.
And I will once again point out what a lot of people seem to miss: Luke does actually at one point accept that he cannot save Vader
"Then my father is truly dead"
When Luke and Vader meet on Endor he tries to get Vader to leave with him, Vader rejects Luke's offer and turns him over to the Emperor, at that point Luke's plan is no longer "turn Vader", the plan is "distract these sith long enough for the strike team to take out the shield and the fleet to destroy the death star along with me and the sith"
When Sidious reveals it all to be a trap for the Rebels, Luke panics and acts in fear trying to kill Sidious (that's attachment), initiating the duel between him in Vader
It's only during that duel that Luke senses Vader's conflict, his hesitation and reluctance to kill Luke, an angle Luke can work at, so he refocuses, Luke directs his efforts at Vader, and in doing so he also lets go of his friends, he trusts that they will handle the shield, imperial fleet, and death star
Side note but related to this: attachments aren't just being possessive and unwilling to let go of people, it's not trusting them to do things themselves, it's doing everything for them because you're to afraid to let them do anything, that's what Luke did when he attacked Sidious, he didn’t even give the Rebels a chance to handle the situation, he let his fears take hold and did the thing Sidious wanted him to do
Also, as a reminder, Anakin killed children just after losing his mother, so this idea that the Jedi forced him to hide his emotions and that this is the reason for his attitude is false. Anakin became a mass murderer before discussing the loss of his mother with the Jedi. And no, Padme and his mother weren't the only presents for him. Just because Padme is Anakin's enabler doesn't mean that those ready to judge him if necessary weren't there for him. The Jedi cared about him before he had them slaughtered. Obi Wan did not fail Anakin. The Jedi didn't fail Anakin. Anakin is just a piece of shit.
"Anakin fell because Obi-Wan is a bad teacher/wasnt ready to be a teacher" is bullshit, Anakin knows and understands Jedi teachings, he can explain them to non-Jedi and teach them to a Padawan
But also this just misunderstands how teaching works
Teaching is not programming you don't just input the information in and the students follow it forever, there's choice here, the student needs to listen and apply what they've learned
Also there's the fact that 99% of Palpatine's "manipulations" of Anakin are just him saying "do the opposite of what the Jedi teach"

Why do I get the feeling Avengers: Doomsday is going to create a huge influx of Doctor Doom apologists?
There are two kinds of people in this world; Those who can hear this photo, and those who can't.
The Jedi never say "you are not allowed to feel any emotion", dead horse beaten
But with that established, let's actually look at what they do say
The Jedi are always saying is "let go of your feelings" (or something to that effect)
An important distinction, as none of that ever says something to the effect of "never feel anything", quite the opposite in fact, as to let go of an emotion you need to experience it first
The answer is of course in the wording, "let go" is another way of saying "let it pass", do not dwell on it, do not become stuck in those emotions, they are temporary, but they do linger and cling when you choose to allow them, thus you must make the choice to let those feelings go
Dear Marvel fans,
If anybody has been reading Avengers: Armageddon lately, it has this one character that has earned my scorn and detest: Renata Riani.
She's Red Hulk's personal UN stooge who demonizes superheroes, blaming them for everything wrong with the world, all while aiding and abetting Red Hulk's madness in conquering Latveria and is now about to conquer Symkaria.
Am I the only one tired of these hero-haters in the Marvel Universe?
The way people talk about the Jedi being "outdated", this underlying assumption that they "obviously" need to get with the times, change completely, abandon everything that is their culture, it is uncomfortably similar to how I see antisemites talk about Judaism

Unlike what a lot of fans would have you think, the biggest example of “corrupt Jedi” we get in the prequels is Anakin Skywalker himself

I would like to express my condolences to Andor fans.
Personally, I'm not a fan of Andor, due to the grimdark tone and moral relativism. But, I do respect your admiring of the show. It's just too bad Andor takes place in the same timeline where all roads leads to this nonsense:
