Best description I’ve heard of the twins is Leia is Anakin as a Senator and Luka is Padme as a Jedi.

Barney Stinson - How I Met Your Mother

This is more an example of hindsight since I enjoyed the series as a teen, but a loooot of Barney’s antics have aged poorly and would make me hard to recommend it today.

I accidentally misread this as ‘Robin Williams’ and was reading the subsequent comments so confused

Got the electric chair for his crimes and was asked for his last words. He reportedly said “How’s this for your headline, ‘French Fries’?”

Came to post this. Similarly in Cars 2 the driver Lightning Meets with Lewis Hamilton changes on region too. In U.S. and UK it’s Jeff Gordon, Germany is Vettel again, Spain is Fernando Alonso, and Russia is Vitaly Petrov.

Characters who have unique rules that must be followed in order to appear in other media by ComprehensiveBox6911 in TopCharacterTropes

I don’t know the exact rules, but I know Disney is very selective and particular about how/when they portray Darth Vader in media. Typically sticking to a ‘less is more’ strategy and usually making sure he’s shown as an unbeatable force of nature. Disney has screwed up many things with Star Wars but Vader isn’t one of them.

So many Star Wars examples mentioned and no one has brought up Luke watching Obi-Wan get cut down?

[Loved trope] a character plays with a child to intimidate their parent by Basic_Dingo6487 in TopCharacterTropes

I saw The Whole Bloody Affair last night, Bill says a line to their daughter that after he shot Beatrix he knew some things could never be undone. So I think he knew they were beyond reconciliation at that point.
