    Falling down a hole is not the same as being blasted by the super death ray gruesome murderizer 5000 and palpatine wasn’t a puddle of blood on the floor. Jedi literally have a technique called Slow Descent where they use the force to prevent injury from falling at great heights. Palpatine was the second most powerful force user next to Anakin at the time he was alive. He was more than powerful enough to levitate himself and he was still alive when he fell down into the hole.

    Also darth vader could have dragged himself to an escape pod. The guy had a cybernetic life support system. It could have restarted his heart seconds after Luke left him on the floor.

    All in all the original trilogy gave deliberately gray area endings to two of the most iconic villains in cinema.

      Bro he literally exploded to death and then a fusion reactor powering a moon sized space station blew up the ashes.

      He’s a goddamn space wizard he didn’t need his body to survive, he just possessed a clone body and the 9th movie sucked so hard they thought audiences couldnt understand that evil space wizards can do evil space wizard shit.

      Tbf to them, we’re having to have this conversation for some dumb reason.
