Why did Kylo Ren turn evil?

Because he thought it was the fastest way to get laid?

This could be a useful analysis, if the screenwriter felt this way and made an effort to express this viewpoint on society’s decline.

However, it is far more likely that the character is the way he is because of bad writing and someone’s desire for a certain character arc, whether or not such an arc made any sense.

Because we need a setup for Star Wars Episodes 8 and 9?

Well that whole bit about the famous characters pretty much says it all, no?

He turned evil because all it takes to turn evil in the Star Wars universe is to have any emotion whatsoever.

Supposedly to be on the light side you have to be a detached emotionless robot.

Stub your toe, get angry just once and it is red lightsabers and black masks for the rest of your life....

With parents as busy as Leia & Hans its easy to see why the son got interested in the dark side. It is powerful while the parents were weak.

I haven’t seen it, nor intend to until it’s on netflix or $4.99 in the bargain DVD bin, but my question is this. The original Death Star was the size of a small moon. The new one is the size of the planet. Why isn’t it called the Death...Supernova? Or Death Globular Cluster? Something bigger?

Star Wars?
Is that when Charlie Sheen and Nicolas Cage duke it out over a parking space?

The spoilers don’t matter because the movie is so lame.

I made a special effort to see it with my father who saw the first one with me back in 1977.

God, what an embarrassment.

This new movie is a complete joke.

Don’t waste your time people.

This new Star Wars is nothing but a complete compitulation to political correctness.

It is utterly worthless as art. It is nothing but political propaganda.

I apologized to my dad afterwards.

Kilo (Ben) was apparently upset at the microaggression of being sent off the Jedi school to learn about the force...

*sigh*

You will not see any white males in future Star Wars as Jedi. This was PC overload.

The whole movie suffered from a lack of masculinity.

Why? Because he had bad parents. The mom happily was a well paid sexy tart the last time we saw her and now bitches people wanted about 1/4 less of her on screen 32 years later, and dad apears to have hardly been around, possibly doing his best to stay away from mom.
