General Star Wars Discussion

"A good question, for another time."

Aka, Star Wars's modus operandi.

The thing is, that groundwork has been around for a long, long time. The movies though didn't set it up nor explain it. All it needed were a couple of lines from Snoke or someone about "Project Necromancer" or something in VII or VIII. This is why I am a proponent of new Special Editions for all of the films. Just adding a tiny bit of gap-filler would smooth things out.

Now, personally, it doesn't bother me that much when Star Wars doesn't make sense - it never really has. Still, it would go a long way to quelling a lot of the complaints.

But does it tell the story of how he got that perfect hair and how it stays perfect, even under the helmet? That's what we really need to know!

I'm guessing he uses the force. He discovered some dark side force thingy that makes his hair stay perfect.

Also his mom was an actual princess. I'm betting that house was well-stocked with quality hair care products.

Yes to the home he grew up in being well stocked with hair care products, but I think you have the wrong parent based on the fact that of all the insults, the only one Han reacted to and denied was scruffy-looking. Fan theory based on nothing more than pure speculation (and the OT is from the 1970s and 1980s) Han has a hair care routine, we just never saw it.

Look, we all know the master of hair-care products is Uncle Chewie - He's got the good stuff!

I guess the better question is--how could Ben not have had amazing hair, being surrounded as he was by so many good influences??

He’s a Dapper Dan man!

Don’t forget Uncle Lando!

Don’t forget Uncle Lando!

Probably also where he learned to charm the ladies!

That's a totally valid point. I can't believe I missed that completely obvious source.

It's wild to me that Disney leans into something Lucas tried to ensure was never seen again.

Well, every dog has its day. Honestly, it's not like there weren't some good ideas in the special, it's just the overall production that is pretty bad. I don't have a problem with taking those ideas and polishing them up.
