The absence of a father and early separation from his mother set the stage for his later developmental issues, the authors noted, and violent, dissociative events, such as when he kills a tribe of Tuskans in blind revenge, precipitated his turn to the Dark Side.
Stupid, wussy analysis like this is why the French keep getting their asses kicked in every war...
It could only be a government sponsored study that would even bother with psycho analyzing a fictional character...
“I find their lack of belief...disturbing.”
Who did they get their funding from - The SyFy Channel?
He was a complex man with a soft side as well...
I’d challenge anyone to get burned up in a river of lava after getting dismembered by a lightsaber and having the strength to carry on afterward. I’m sure such a thing can’t be mentally healthy either.
Liberals don’t like the concept of evil, because they believe that socialism will solve the ills of human society.
They are reading way too much into a fictional character in a script written by a man who has very little conception of continuity, believable dialogue or logical plotlines....
I would just mention to the French that the inability to determine what’s reality and what’s fiction is a pretty serious mental disability too.

The socialistic French, who are responsible for the secularization of Europe, are just the right group to propose this kind of nonsense. Ignoring, in their deliberate deconstructionist way, the intent of comic book good v. evil, they plod on psychoanalyzing behavior as if anyone really cares. Yet there is always the American acolyte who sees his opportunity to get his 15 minutes on the tail of his French counterpart as does this fellow Bender in the article. Sure he doesn’t buy the French mental schtick about Darth Vader but he does think that the film character may have a personality disorder. Good grief, this is a fictional movie character not one from Shakespeare. The only reason that this film gets such credibility is that, in my opinion, the mythologist, Joseph Campbell made such a big deal about it in one of his books. Of course, using movie characters immediately makes your analysis outdated because the shelf life of their impact is less than a year. Anyhow, the French, according to a book I just read with the eponymous title, are “Our Oldest Enemy”. Best to remember that in every circumstance.
He got over his mental illness when he joined the dark side. I mean, come on. Who in their right mind would want to be some pansy-@ss jedi thingy when they could be an bad@ss dictator with shiny black armor?
They do know Darth Vader isn’t real don’t they? What a bunch of BS.
Darth Vader was a fictional character in a movie.
Typical anti-Sith propaganda. Proves the Jedi didn’t go extinct. They went into mental health, where they could still sit around, and endlessly discuss things without getting anything done.
If there was ever a group who embodied the Yoda rule “Do not try, do”, it’s the Sith [and Vader].
It’s all just envy for the most successful Conservative SMALL sized government in history. It doesn’t get smaller than two guys running the galaxy.
And Vader? He would have plugged the oil leak with the head of BP. Literally. Kim Jong Il would have felt the squeeze [and I’m not talking sanctions] long ago. The Mullahs would have been in an Imperial trash compacter faster than you can say ‘light speed’. And Jar Jar Obozo? Back on Naboo.

Fiction. That is what these “experts” deal in. Off with their heads.
