The Power to Save Padme


Umm, Anakin didn't anyone teach you Force Healing at the Jedi Academy?

Rey knew it. Ben Solo knew it too! And I guess Obi-Wan did as well, if he used it to heal Luke from the sandpeople attack.

Anakin could have saved poor Shmi on Tatooine, and he didn't even have to follow Palpatine's teachings to save Padme later on.

I know, right? Force healing could have changed the trajectory of the entire saga.

I haven't seen the film yet. Do they actually use Jedi powers to heal people or bring them back from the dead? That is just crazy. And what kind of lesson does that teach the viewers? The OT had important characters die, and that was something Luke and the others had to learn to accept, kind of like in real life. Death is presented now as something with no consequence.

reply

They do. Rey uses the Force to heal Kylo Ren after she strikes him with a lightsaber. When Rey is near death at the end, Kylo uses his remaining lifeforce to revive her.

Sounds lame.

reply

No, of course you haven't.

Isn't it wonderful watching people break canon sometimes and not others?

reply

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise?

reply

Not from a Jedi...

reply

Yeah, it was mentioned as a Dark Side thing. I hate this Trilogy even more now! LOL

reply

Yeah, the Disney Trilogy sucks even more for you now, eh?

reply

And I still havent watched Last Jedi! (Won't ever)
