Force Awakens hits $600M, Anakin cameo cut

She never opens the package, and we never see the eventual recipient, but based on contextual clues, fans are fairly certain that the package was the charred remains of Vader’s helmet, and the recipient was Kylo Ren. You see, in the lead up to ‘The Force Awakens, ‘ Disney/Lucasfilm released a number of comics, short stories and novels, all part of a campaign known as the “Road to ‘The Force Awakens.’ ” The mystery that might have been answered during this period has to do with how Kyle Ren aka Ben Solo managed to get ahold Darth Vader’s helmet. But it’s well worth those extra 90 seconds if you’ve been hungry for more Kylo Ren backstory. One of the things he said was director J.J. Abrams’ decision to take off the eyes from the mask, making it instead into one whole tinted eyepiece.

By now it’s no spoiler, Anakin Skywalker met his demise as Darth Vader in the Star Wars series.

In The Perfect Weapon, Bazine is hired by a mysterious client to retrieve a mysterious package from the room of a former stormtrooper who fought at the Battle of Endor (depicted in Return of the Jedi). Still, it’s as plausible an explanation as any we’ve heard so far. As we now know, however, that’s not the case, and Kylo Ren managed to track that bad boy down and build a creepy shrine to his dead grandpa.

Perhaps one of the funniest posts came on the same day as the amusing social media poster wrote: ‘when Darth Vader changed his name i bet they were jerks about it too people are small like that’.

It was Obi Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) who was instead brought back in “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and not Anakin Skywalker. I mean, just look at this guy.

Do you buy this Kylo Ren Darth Vader helmet explanation, or would you like to put forth a theory of your own?
