One thing I never quite figured out, I know that Anakin Skywalker is Luke's father, but who is Anakin's father?

wordfairy on 2015-05-13 20:46:30
Yoda! xD

Annamariah on 2015-07-10 03:18:45
Wasn't Anakin supposed to have been the product of an immaculate conception by the midi-chlorians? So his father would be the Force itself.

LurkerSmurf on 2016-04-10 11:19:12
Yeah, I always had a problem with George Lucas making Anakin the evil Jesus.

Well I never pushed monty's behind and feel that he owes me thanks also for not violating his behindhood in the first place.

JD_1947 on 2014-12-28 02:02:53
