Liam Neeson recently brought up something that’s been on my mind for a long time too — the way Qui-Gon Jinn died in The Phantom Menace. If you’ve ever rewatched that final fight with Darth Maul and thought, “Wait, that’s it?” — you’re definitely not alone. “Hardly a Master Jedi” In a recent interview with …
When Darth Vader first emerged in the Imperial military structure, he didn’t arrive with titles, medals, or polite introductions.
