Repost from Risa@startrek

As a millennial, the Trek VS Wars debates always confused me. Star Trek is philosophy and political science class in a scifi, flavor of the week format. And Star Wars is fantasy in a science fiction setting. Why can’t we all just love them for what they are?

Here we see Deeana Troi poking fun at how quickly a couple retcons about family and the force sort of ruin the first half of a New Hope. If Luke could call out to Leia at the end of ESB then how did Vader not know here?

    I mean, you low key hit the nail on the head.

    In Vader sucks at noticing obvious things because nothing was planned and everything got reconned as they went along. For forty-five years.

    It’s absolutely shocking that the time-warped remnant of Vader can find his own face, let alone sense a force-sensitive daughter that wouldn’t exist for years and wouldn’t make sense for decades.
