Anakin Skywalker: just how mentally screwed-up was he, anyway?

[thewayne]

Psychiatrists study just what was wrong with Anie throughout the three movies. Pretty screwed-up little puppy he was. Narcissism, can't control his anger, issues with Obiwan, etc.

As for the 30-year-old Star Wars series, "We're probably lucky nobody has started analyzing the lightsabers as phallic symbols," said clinical psychologist Kaufman. "Come to think of it, someone probably has."

Honey, you're no true fan. You would've realized that...hmm, the first time a psychological discussion of the series was brought up, if not while watching. Seriously, a sword that grows from its hilt and she didn't think it was phallic for the first thirty years? *eyeroll*
