We can always hope that the pattern of "one comic ends, another takes it's place" happens again with Kanan.

You guys do realize girls enter puberty faster than boys, right? And Leia has lived a pampered life as a Princess while Ezra was a street rat? Ezra probably wasn't even eating every day, and likely never had a good healthy meal that often. Probably stunted his growth. Leia's just one of those people that can pass for an adult in their mid-to-late teens due to their genes.

Besides, Leia's always looked on the old side. She was 19 in ANH.

>>78910738

No one told the Stormtroopers they have one built into their blaster rifles.

>>78911312
It's pretty good so far.

The fact that Leia's face is slightly elongated and plumper can be attributed to the shows stylization. It's not supposed to be a perfect 1:1 live action translation. Look at Obi-Wan for example in Rebels style.

>>78911443
They don't exactly travel very fast either, so even less momentum.

>>78911451
Which makes Phasma's even funnier because even with the added stock, it still has the folding one on there. Whoever was handling the designs probably didn't understand what all that junk under the barrel was supposed to be.

>>78911464
If they're going to waste our time going back to Lothal and to get a cameo of a very important main character from the OT, then they could have tried to make her look like Leia just a little bit. Honestly, if I wasn't told this was Princess Leia herself, I would have thought this was maybe Governor Pryce or some older senator from that planet.

She looks like Leia to me. Just in the shows style. Just like Vader does even though his mask looks like the McQuarrie concept art. Or Obi-Wan'a hologram even though he isn't a 1:1 copy of Ewan. Or how Tie fighter wings are slightly stubbier. Or how Stormtroopers have bigger helmets. Or how the bridge of Star Destroyers are slightly taller than in the films. It's all about stylization, m8.

>>78911734

>The other thing that is exciting is that we worked with the Lucasfilm story team to make sure that our Hyperspace Mountain experience had its place in the Star Wars timeline and canon. One of the things you’ll hear from Admiral Ackbar is that we’re going to investigate a Star Destroyer near the planet Jakku , so our battle that is taking place is the Battle of Jakku, which we can see the aftermath of in all the Episode VII trailers. You can see the ground battle in Star Wars Battlefront, we’re just telling the space portion of that battle story.

That... Is interesting.

>>78912356
I'm sure they will. We need to know how this happened, it's pretty damn important if you ask me.

>>78910987

I like that they acknowledge their existence.

Still, if I had control of star wars I would've made it so the Republic always had the V-shaped ships.

>>78912356
Hyperspace Mountain's pretty much the lead-up taking the rest of the battle we know of into account. Considering the riders role as a recon team investigating the Imp presence on Jakku and how you and the X-Wing Squadron escort blow up one Star Destroyer before bolting back to base, we're why the Imps send fucking everything over there and how Jakku became such a shitstorm.

>>78912488
These missions are conveniently small, and the chumps that were fucking with Bespin didn't seem to be that much of a big deal.

I suspect I am about to have the Empire target me though...

>>78912474
Are you running Best reward missions? With only a small pr above it is the only time the game is hard

>>78912422
Honestly I don't like any of them (though Ansel Elgort does have a passing resemblance to Ford when he smiles)

>>78912532
What if our only hope is through Wendig now? Empire's End most definitely will show the Battle of Jakku, especially since it made a big point to introduce the Ravager in Aftermath.

>>78912604
I have a very strong suspicion that Wendig is going to cover the rest of the battle. I hope he has taken the criticism into account and it going to make his next books better, but honestly, I am not going in with high expectations.

>>78911200
>i don't get why people think puberty hits after that.

It's different for everyone.

Back in high school we had girls who looked like adults at age 16, while some others are still skinny and small-breasted as if they are 13 year olds, despite being near 30.

I'd rather they just not do a young Han movie

>>78912601
Ya I'm in the same boat, with a couple more or less ruining solo for me (teller, elgort)

I heard Rami Malek was in the running and I was on that hype train if only because it would be totally absurd

Can someone put Leia's rebels model next to Padme's TCW model?

>>78912667
What's your ability setup? It can help a lot with tougher missions. I'm a bitch for the game, been meaning to do a dump from all the crews lore, the devs have subtly brought a lot from EU back into canon

>>78912673
Yeah, I don't want this either. A major part of the appeal of Han is Ford's performance, and the character on his own isn't quite as interesting without it, even if they do get someone who can mimic him. Though I guess if we HAVE to have a young Han, I'd rather it be Ingruber. I have no idea why any of these other guys are even being considered.

Your Ability set up is decent but once you get you Tier 2 content you need more Rank 2 abilities to keep up,I would recommend switching to Roll rather than grenade as Survivability > Damage.

Its very mediocre. Poorly written. Nothing BAD happens in the book. But nothing much happens at all. It's easily the most boring book in all of Canon so far.

It's pretty much entirely set up for the sequel.

>>78913178
>That sounds horrible. How bad is Aftermath? Is it worth buying?
It's only useful for what it brings into the new canon (as books should be). It is literally not worth actually reading to learn this stuff, though, because it's written so horribly. If you really must read through it, spring for the audiobook in the OP (after some link hopping). Or, just look online to see if any kind soul summarized the important stuff. Absolutely don't buy it; rent it from a Library if you want a physical copy.

>>78913038
Kileko(a popular comics ripper I am regularly in contact with via Kaskus, and Indonesian forum I accidentally discovered one day) bought extra copies of USW, AEYNTK, and The Visual dictionary to debind and scan, but it turns out his printer's scanner is too small should he even debind them. He doesn't have the time, know-how, or funds to make a DIY scanner and aligning the scans would be a pain in he ass, so he's going to continue to investigate other options. Don't expect them any time soon.

No he doesn't. He may have witch hunted that one reviewer but he never claimed all the hate was from homophobia. Not that it makes his book any better, though. Still the worst of the new canon writing-wise.

You’re the fucking Empire, man. You’re the shitty, oppressive, totalitarian Empire. If you can imagine a world where Luke Skywalker would be irritated that there were gay people around him, you completely missed the point of Star Wars. It’s like trying to picture Jesus kicking lepers in the throat instead of curing them. Stop being the Empire. Join the Rebel Alliance. We have love and inclusion and great music and cute droids.

She gets so blinded by her bloodlust that she leaves her teenage son to go rescue him instead, steals a TIE Fighter, and then shits herself when she realizes that her Rebel buddies are shooting at her because she is in a fucking TIE.

Interesting, I never noticed that.

I still think it'd be an interesting look for Jedi though, or just something similar to what Anakin wears and what Luke wears in RotJ.

Yeah, you could tell they only brought him back because they needed someone to focus on during the final dogfight.

see i read it as intentionally abrupt, at least the death. it was meant to happen suddenly and without control. and i kinda liked that part because of how it portrayed the dark side. how suddenly everything in the force became clearer and focused how his power swelled as he rode his rage.
though i will concede that the fallout from her death is swelled on enough. i mean yeah luke felt sad and learned the lesson of remembering the happy times and not letting her death fuel nevative emotions. but like, she was a rebel. she trained people. she was the daughter of a huge biolab owner who specifically danced with the empire to keep his daughter safe so she could be a rebel. what was his reaction?

>>78916144
There was a big "Where's Rey?" thing on social media protesting the lack of Rey merchandise (with special attention to Rey not having a player piece in the latest Star Wars Monopoly).

Turns out the lack of Rey stuff was just due to it not being shipped (Black Series Rey has started hitting stores in more numbers these last few days), but they got Monopoly to say they'd include a Rey piece in a later edition.

So... their victory was getting Rey added to Monopoly.

Way ahead of you man, hopefully these can be helpful to wookiepedia or whatever is handling canon these days

>>78916054
>>78916055
>>78916068

He's not canon, this makes me a sad meatbag.

>>78916144
Where to start with this...

TFA Monopoly comes out in September, doesn't have Rey as a player token, movie comes out, some brat gets pissed that Rey's not in Monopoly and writes a letter about it, Hasbro responds that they didn't want to spoil the movie by having her in the game, letter and Hasbro response goes viral with the sjws and that stupid wheresrey thing and gender equality goes full swing, Hasbro eventually caves in and plans to add Rey in an updated TFA Monopoly later this year.

And as an added bonus, JJAbrams also got pissed over Ray not being in Monopoly.

>>78916273
How does a character existing spoil the movie?

>>78916144
TFA based Monopoly game omitted Rey, people called BS, she gets put in.
i mean is it really "muh SJW" when Rey IS a Main Character and has almost no merch presence?

>>78916208
Thank you based Anon

>>78916382
She has almost no merch presence because accessories would spoil a pretty major TFA plot point.

>>78916354
I never understood that either.

Also, after this wheresrey hoopla went all through hoops sjws were starting to notice that a Rey toy figure wasn't as readily available on the toy shelves, along with not even being included in some multi-character packs that pair off TFA's heroes and villains, with Finn being the rival to Kylo Ren so that the initial impression was Finn was the real main protagonist before the film came out.

Blah, blah, blah, more sjw tears about toy inequality, big eyes, big eyes

>>78916208
Holy shit nice. I'm going to save and look through all these.

>>78916382
>>78916427
They have a point, but the lack of Rey stuff comes down to timing rather than actual scarcity. Hasbro's distribution has always been shit.

>>78916208

Guh, calling Rey a Mary Sue probably now triggers SJWs, she really is a double-edged sword

Could always chalk it up to stylistic differences. I mean, Weequay and Klatoonians in TCW didn't exactly look perfectly like the ones in RotJ.

He's a whiny movie director who blames all his failures on the studios thinking he can do no wrong and that his movies are pure genius. He got a super forced 5 minutes of fame when fox paid RedLetterMedia an absurd amount to interview him and to let him be in a Best of the Worst episode. Sadly while there was some fantastic movies in that episode, Max almost ruined that episode by being really fuckin annoying through the whole thing.

On a side note, Amazon's got the cover art for the Tales From A Galaxy Far, Far Away book up on their listing now and it has the subtitle "Aliens, Volume One". I'm kind of hoping for a whole series of short story collections similar to the old Tales books. It'd be neat to have Tales Of The Resistance and Tales Of The First Order too. I'd love some more info on the Knights of Ren and such especially.

Funny, he must've been cut early or something, cause I've been reading the novelisation and Zuvio wasn't in the Jakku part at all.

Meanwhile Leia is getting a bunch more "screentime" in the novel.

>>78917814
Yeah, now that we know she was supposed to have a different introduction, it explains why her actual introduction on Takodana felt kind of understated. Within the context of the earlier cut, it really is just "here's Leia again."

How would dudes like Vader and Sideous fare in an older era where Sith where more commonplace than it was during their time? A lot of weird shit back then.

I'm not sure who said -- either Lucas or Disney -- but they mentioned that good ol Sheev was the most powerful Sith Lord to date (Vader was top-tier too, but not so much). But it's kind of hard to gauge their capabilities through the old trilogy alone, and this new canon isn't that far along to say either. A lot of the shit I see during the KOTOR era looked too sporadic and wild, a lot of power being brandished; dudes who eat planets, achieved immortality through the will/hatred alone.

Is it me or does that getup also remind anyone else of Mara's desert gear?

Thank you all for the bits of discussion and whatnot for the past little bit. It's helped me to stay awake and really draw for the first time since I moved to Alaska. I've been working on a sketch of Sidon Ithano tonight and got really into it, despite feeling exhausted right now. I'll post a scan (once we get the scanner set up and running) later, if anyone's interested.

His run on Green Hornet was great too.

>>78917933
I think that Vader and Sidious would fare pretty well against any Sith from that era. Thanks to the nature of the Rule of Two, it's a safe assumption that they had all the knowledge/power of those old Sith and more built up over time up to that point, making them individually extremely powerful, probably more so than many of those Sith put together.

At least here I keep seeing the opposite: people being immensely triggered by the claim that Rey isn't a Mary Sue or talks about her as having any competence or skills that make sense because of how she grew up on Jakku. They go full on

What's this?

>>78910985
Then why is Sabine sounded younger compared to her? Heck even Hera and TCW Padme sounded even younger. Best explantion would is she probably a smoker.

>>78918593
Comm? Translator? Or probably where she hides her weed

>>78910664
Weird how people keep saying she looks too old therefore it sucks. The style is simplistic enough, it's always lacked details, however she hardly looks thirty. Even if she did look older than she should, frankly that would hardly be bad. In fact if Bail played his cards right he could use it to disguise how old Leia really is. That way he didn't just adopt a baby at the end of the Clone Wars that might be linked to his close and very pregnant friend Padme. If the Emperor or Vader ever sensed something strange it would help ease their suspicions.

So there was a lot of marketing about how TFA "used real props and practiucal effects"... I'm sorry but I have a few questions:

1. Did putting in "real" stuff really matter to movie's quality?
2. Aren't complaints about "too much CGI" nothing more than misguided nostalgia for practical effects anyway?
3. Isn't it likely that Disney is just going to phase the practical effects out as they go along anyway?

>>78919371
TFA was "we can do it oldschool with the best of them". The next movie (Rogue One) is literally "we can take this property in a direction you haven't seen it go before in cinema". Disney's making a few statements here.

>>78919371
>1+2
It was mainly a marketing ploy to attract nostaglistic fans that hated the prequel films CGI. That's really about it. I havent seen TFA yet but I assume there is an equal balance of puppetry and CGI like the PT. It's made to look "realer".
>3
Most likely yes. TFA was playing it safe it seems but they're probably going to phase it out more and more. Especially with the anthology films.

>>78910581
God I detest this show. I want to smack that kid in the face until I can't feel my hand.

>>78919371
I don't know, I really liked knowing that BB8 was a real thing and not just something thrown together with CGI.

That being said the puppetry in a lot of scenes was pretty bad.

>>78919371
I think a lot of it was that Lucas was rather over-dependent on CGI in the prequels. To the point there were vast scenes where the actors were basically on green or blue soundstages with the backdrop being added in post-production.

Whereas in TFA CGI was used primarily where it was needed, not just because they could.

Yeah, it's them reusing models. They've done that to her model even when she was still alive in the series.

No if you cant do cgi well. Look at TFA compared with the PT or at TLOTR compared to The Hobbit trilogy. The formers were visually a lot better than the latters

>>78919604
Someone brought the game up on /tg/ a couple of days ago, though.

>>78916111
I'm just fine with them adding Rey to monopoly. It's the fact that they're pissed about her action figures not coming out until now that bothers me. It's like they don't understand Disney didn't want to slap Rey with a lightsaber on the field until after the film was out for a bit.

>>78919647
Yeah, because that was such a big fucking shocker. I mean Vader being Luke's father one thing, but who saw the main character being a Jedi?

>>78919647
They could have just not released her with a lightsaber, though? She's primarily associated with her staff in all the other marketing materials. They could have just given her that. Maybe release a 'Rey with Lightsaber' later on?

Seems more like it was less aimed at the Prequels, since they had to do a little blitz about how the Prequels used real sets, miniatures, matte paintings, etc, than a jab at the trend to go fully digital. Does anyone remember the bitching on /co/ about Superman's CGI cape?

The Prequels suffer from a misconception about how much computer generated assets they actually used, down to people still complaining that certain scenes looked like they were from video games...when they complaining about background paintings and model cities/alien planets. The primary flaw was that the technology to integrate the source footage of actors and models, etc, doesn't stand up to modern effects. For instance there seems to have been something of a quantum leap in post-production digital lighting to match background and actors so they appear to be in the same location.

>>78919616
>don't use a new medium and therefore improving it with greater understanding on how it can be applied and updated, ignore it until it magically improves randomly
You're insane, you realize that right?
How the fuck do you think cgi improved? People learn in its ins and outs, applying that information to updating its capabilities, etc
They have to use it to improve it you stupid fuck.

Hard truth, there are good reasons practical effects are largely considered obsolete, they eat up the budget and rarely allow for impressive shots.

Not the same ship. I'll wait till the Databank says anything.

>>78919712
The problem is that in most movies it is shot in a way to give the scene depth. The prequels were shot dead on with a two camera shoot, as if they were shooting a play.

>>78920224
More dynamic camera work may, MAY, have helped to disguise the technical limitations of that day, but I doubt it would be to the degree that people would stop complaining about how the effects haven't stood the test of time.

>>78920224
Yeah...look at some of the behind-the-scenes stuff of George sat on his ass directing people on green or blue soundstages. It feels like he used CGI as a crutch, instead of how earlier in his career it was a tool to tell the story.

>>78919712

For instance there seems to have been something of a quantum leap in post-production digital lighting to match background and actors so they appear to be in the same location.

There are scenes in AOTC in particular where the actors are completely surrounded by greenscreen with no sets whatsoever, causing a lack of immersion.

Obi-Wan on Kamino walking through the halls, numerous shots within the Jedi temple, and Padme on the droid conveyor belt are particularly egregious.

>>78920304
>have helped to disguise the technical limitations of that day, but I doubt it would be to the degree that people would stop complaining about how the effects haven't stood the test of time.

Lucas should have used more physical sets.

If his scripts had been tighter, he could have reused and redressed locations to save money like every other films does.

Having read Lucas's first draft for The Star Wars, I can say the Prequels read about the same way, with lots of redundant scenes, too many location changes, too many character entering and exiting without established goals.

>>78919542
This is bullshit because it was the early 2000s

I can assure you there was no flick that looked ANYTHING like Star Wars did at the time

>>78920438
What you are talking about is exactly what the post you replied to was mentioning. Those large green screens were replaced with footage taken from physical models or in the case of that Jedi Temple hallway a matte painting.

Regardless of "lack of immersion" the Prequels were by no means the only film to have used massive green screens, not back then and certainly not now. With the advent of 3D films it is in some ways becoming worse. Ask Sir Ian McKellen.

No argument. Still you can pick your moment of movie magic, even relatively mundane scenes, and there is almost certainly a green screen behind it.

>>78920717

Lucas poorly applied the technology he championed.

>>78920818
Lucas fully believed that the reason people went to Star Wars movies was because of the spectical and and special effects, so he made it a goal to have as much of it as he could.

That being said, something being a model and not CGI doesn't mean it's not a shitty special effect.

>>78920818
More like the technology they pioneered. If you follow how the effects of each Prequel movie was achieved you can track a good deal of the evolution of modern digital techniques. Even as critically panned as Jar Jar was at the time he was heralded as a major milestone in special effects, same as the droid army.

True. Sometimes the CGI over "practical" was just more practical. Same reason they did it for Maz in the new movie. Still not sure about Snoke, though, that seemed like it could have been achieved without CGI. But if you hire Andy Serkis I guess you feel you're wasting him. It would be like hiring Ray Park for Maul and not having him do any fancy flips or spinning.

>>78919371
>Did putting in "real" stuff really matter to movie's quality?

Yes. The practical effetcts made the movie feel more real and it really enhanced the setting. It looks and feels liek the OT and I love it.

>2. Aren't complaints about "too much CGI" nothing more than misguided nostalgia for practical effects anyway?

No, because CGI ages like milk, even "good CGI".

>Isn't it likely that Disney is just going to phase the practical effects out as they go along anyway?

Depends entirely on the director. Both Abrams and Johnson perfer practical effects, even though it's a lot easier to just use CGI wherever you can.

>>78921065
>True. Sometimes the CGI over "practical" was just more practical. Same reason they did it for Maz in the new movie.

The actual reason, revealed in the concept art book, is that her final design came too late in production to be designed as a puppet.

JJ wanted her to look like his old film mentor dressed as a fortune teller. They dropped the veil and sequins, but kept the old goggle-eyed lady.

god I hate Stevenson. and she was just awarded Comics Person of the Year or something, even though her writing isn't that great and she is kind of nasty to other people who see things differently.

also she went on this big rant a while back about why she hated Interstellar and how its not a good movie (because she says so?). shes not really in a position to lecture others on having a negative view of Rey.

>>78921192
That seems odd given how she was a major (relatively) character and they had plenty of time to create all kinds of minor, on-screen for a split second characters, both puppet and suit.

>>78921613

They just didn't have her design locked down.

Kylo Ren's helmet was also a late choice. Originally and for a long time he was a samurai Darth Vader impersonator.

The storm troopers were locked-in early.

I believe you, but it's still a weird thing to hold to the last minute. CGI design and rendering is no quick work either, though or course it has less logistical issues.
