Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers for ‘The Acolyte’ Episode 5. Star Wars has some fairly iconic lines, but one that’s always stuck out to me is the way Darth Sidious (Ian McDiarmid) describes the Dark Side of the Force inStar Wars: Revenge of the Sith: “The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.” He was more or less saying thatthe Dark Side lends itself to some frightening visuals....
