>Are we streaming the new Rebels episode tonight?

Yes we are!

What better way to revisit Rebels after the holiday but by watching the S2 episodes again?

RIGHT NOW, we're streaming episodes 1-4, 7-9 until the premier of Episode 10: A Princess on Lothal.

>When does the stream start?
RIGHT NOW, IN PROGRESS, ETC. SEE ABOVE

>When will the new episode be streamed?
When it airs at 6 PM PST/ 9PM EST.

>Why are you skipping episodes 5-6?
They are IMO the most boring episodes, and also time reasons, I'd like to end the episodes close to the time of the premier. If I planned this earlier, I would have played everything..

>Where is this stream?

>>79165697
No kidding. The implication that the original script for Episode 8 was going to be more about a pair of new characters instead of Rey, Finn, Poe, and Kylo Ren and they're only now refocusing on those TFA characters is troubling to say the least. That's not how you do a trilogy, that's for sure

>>
>>79165667
The explanation I've heard for why makes some sense. They want to focus on the characters already introduced rather than any new ones. Unfortunately whatever else TFA did for Star Wars, it really didn't do much to establish the new mains. At least Poe is getting a comic series about his past (and at least he's still alive to have a future, given he originally died in TFA's script). Rey's backstory is almost completely non-existent to the fact that they're still playing coy with her last name. Finn, well, more of a blank slate given he was a cookie cutter soldier of the Not!Empire who managed to break his "programming".
>>
>>79165824

Is Pablo involved in the movies? Or can these directors do whatever the hell they want?
>>
>>79165779
I think he meant undo the "damage" they made of the story in TFA?
>>
>>79165851
So you're saying Finn is a black Rex?
>>
>>79165873
He's only involved when they ask him if what they want to do will fit into the canon.
>>
>>79165873
He was poking fun at people worried about the writing. It's a small part of the reasons why it was moved. Also Avatar 2 comes out two weeks later.
>>
>>79165873
They all come together for the sake of brand consistency. Filoni even sat in on some of their story sessions (and stole, whoops, I mean borrowed some concept art that just happened to get misplaced under his cowboy hat).

And we've had at least some tweets from Pablo explaining (or rather hand waving) some of the movies issues.

The film delayed so they can edit the script is the best case outcome, the alternative is them rushing to production with an undercooked script, and having to chop up the film in the editing room or do reshoots.
>>
>>79165880
No? At least not to the extent that anyone (that we know about) helped him become a real boy instead of just another child soldier. His backstory is more about not wanting to fight, at least for the side he was born to serve, and then falling in love at first sight.

Up to the individual to decide if that was at first sight of Poe or Rey.

I will eat my hat if Avatar 2 actually comes out then. Or ever for that matter. There's no traction on that bejnv made at all aside from Cameron's assertion that he's written the scripts for 5 Avatar sequels.
>>
>>79165962
What IS a bit odd is sure JJ and Kasden had to take over script writing after the original guy was removed from the project (or left?) but I wonder why they didn't remain on the same page.

Also a bit curious given JJ's friend, who had a part in the movie, is on record saying JJ read the script for VIII and supposedly fell in love so hard he's kicking himself for not directing the next movie.
>>
>>79166018

Cameron has done stranger things. He really does have the money to start it whenever he wants.

The real test will be to see what Zoe Saldana's schedule is like.

Pablo is part of the Lucasfilm Story Group, which oversee all Canon media, including the movies, to make sure it all fits.

Kathleen Kennedy and JJ are in charge of the general story, they and the directors have as much freedom as they need, UNLESS something contradicts Canon. Kathleen pretty much hired the LSG to make sure they don't fuck up. They're her nerdy safety net.

Michael Arndt was adapting George Lucas's story.

Fin was Sam, the son of Han & Leia, a junker who crashes onto Jakku, meets, Kira (Rey), etc etc.

They were gonna fight the Jedi Killer, a star-eating sith who killed young Jedi and was looking for the secret Jedi training school.

JJ changed Sam into a deserting storm trooper and added John Doe (Poe Dameron)

The basic outline for 7,8, and 9 has been around since 2012, before even JJ was onboard.

It's the specifics that are the hard part.
>>
>>79166146
That's why it's odd.
>>
>>79166237
We know it was before JJ, that's the thing. He and Kasden apparently made changes sufficient enough to justify a shift in the rest of the sequels. But why is it only happening now? Why didn't they know ahead of time and already have this worked out?

Interesting questions, and we may never know the real reason.
>>
>>79166105
Well that sucks.
>>
>>79166237
That's because it was George Lucas' outline and they had about a million people go through and make their own additions and changes over the years leading up to the finalized script for TFA. The fact that Episode 8 is just now getting rewrites and was delayed when they were supposed to start filming within the month is odd to say the least. Especially since both Rian and J.J. have talked at length about how they worked together closely to get the story to work for Episode 8 already.

Honestly? Their attention might have been on TFA and Rogue One.

>Why didn't they know ahead of time and already have this worked out?

It might have looked good on paper to expanded the cast even more, only to realize they needed to tighten up the script.
>>
>>79166341
The simplest answer might be the closest one to the truth, which is that they saw how much money TFA made in December and will probably have all future Star Wars movies come out in December. Summer is getting crowded with a new blockbuster coming out every other week.

The only guy talking about the rewrites was Jeff Sneider from The Wrap and he's been wrong about stuff before. He was 95% sure the new Spiderman wouldn't be white.

http://comicbook.com/2015/02/21/rumor-spider-man-likely-wont-be-white-nor-will-he-be-peter-parke/
>>
>>79166441
I wonder if maybe they wanted to see how the audience reacted to TFA before solidifying plans for Episode VIII.

What I mean is they wanted to see exactly how the public felt so they could focus on what people want to see or potentially damage control what didn't work. So far I don't think there is any major damage control. The worst is that it was a bit too much of a rehash of ANH. No clue if the whole Rey "mary sue" thing is a big deal as far as the public is concerned, but I doubt it. That sounds like something we deal with here and probably "the tumblrs". Can't say about the latter, never bothered to go there. Supposedly they have some decent pron at least?
>>
>>79166398
>That's because it was George Lucas' outline and they had about a million people go through and make their own additions and changes over the years leading up to the finalized script for TFA.

The timeline provided suggests JJ was actually making relatively huge changes during production.

Both Maz Kanata and Kylo Ren's design were made relatively close to the movie starting.

>The fact that Episode 8 is just now getting rewrites and was delayed when they were supposed to start filming within the month is odd to say the least. Especially since both Rian and J.J. have talked at length about how they worked together closely to get the story to work for Episode 8 already

The average script for a movie will change by at least a third during shooting.

And for the sake of avoiding hysterics, the rumored rewrites involving cutting down secondary characters and developing main characters, all of which sounds like a good idea.

>>79166618
Not worldwide. It could still be Titanic's worldwide and get the #2 spot.
>>
>>79166586

The weirdest part is why they came to the problem of under-utilizing the main characters in the first place. The whole point of TFA was to introduce us to these new characters, why would they shove them to the side in Ep. VIII to focus on entirely different ones?
>>
>>79166655
Yeah

Looks like it's underperforming in China? Huh.
>>
>>79166586
I definitely don't disagree that it's good that these rewrites are refocusing the story back on the main TFA characters, but I just find it baffling that they needed to make that change to begin with. It makes it sound like the film was going to be practically unrelated and doing its own thing, which makes no sense as part of a trilogy. And gives the impression that they were expecting Finn, Rey, Poe, and Kylo Ren to not be popular enough to keep using.

I'm guessing that since Poe was originally not intended to survive, he's been the big change.

Quite a lot of people bitch about Rey being a Mary Sue, because well, she is and it doesn't escape notice. I've seen it all over. Also a lot of people hating on Kylo Ren because they didn't get the character and somehow missed how powerful and badass he is despite not being meant to be the second coming of Vader. Anybody who says he's "whiny" falls in this camp of idiots.

I loved TFA and all but JJ's directing style leaves a lot of dirty fingerprints and garish workmarks. I lost count of the lens flares after the first sequence, and the editing/sound mix took a noticeable step down. Most people will remember that short film that went viral a while ago about the kid making a movie with Star Wars action figures in his backyard, and at the end the kid is revealed as a young JJ Abrams. I feel that portrayal is very close to the truth of what TFA felt like - action figures in a sandbox.

Storywise, I think it did both too much in some areas and not enough in others. On one hand, there's all kinds of stuff that happens offscreen that really should have just been the subject of the movie in the first place. On the other hand, the galactic conflict is virtually identical to the Rebels vs Empire situation with little justification. And I agree with the general consensus of the narrative being way too similar to A New Hope.

These things don't really bother me that much while I'm watching the movie. Honestly my least favorite aspect of TFA is the fact that over 30 years removed from Return of the Jedi and they're STILL flying X-Wings and TIE fighters.

Of course it's easier to pick out little things you didn't like when the rest of the movie was so enjoyable. Poe Dameron immediately cracked my Top 5 favorite characters list, and I never cared more about Luke Skywalker than I did when I saw him unhood himself at the end. But overall I'm glad JJ and Kasdan are taking a hike so that Episode 8 can delve into more original and lore-heavy territory.
>>
>>79165035
Damn, those double ended lightsabers are powerfully retarded. They make Maul's look practical by comparison.
>>
>>79166895
It is obviously Finn and Rey to the end. Neither he nor Poe are gay and the only interaction that Rey even has with Poe is in the book. Rey practically confesses her love to Finn in the book when they find each other on Starkiller.
>>
>>79167062
Funny how you say "they" and not "we'.

I wonder why that is.
>>
>>79166969
I've found that the people who believe Rey is a mary sue are hating because they didn't get the character and missed how the Force has always been pure hax.

But, you know, people are free to believe what they want. The only thing that was annoying about it is how we kept getting into the same arguments about it here for thread after thread.

How do you guys think will Rogue One deal with " A lot of Bothan's died to get this information". Personally i would prefer if they make 20 Bothan's with practical effects and put them all together in ship, then have a imperial ship blow them all up in the middle of the movie, that way we can concentrate with the main crew instead of those ugly wolf like aliens.

Her mistake with the door controls actually saved Han.

Her rejection of the lightsaber actually let her help destroy Star Killer Base.

She wasn't.

Constantly wanted to go back to Jakku. Fled Maz Kanata's offer and get herself KO'd by Kylo Ren.

>Her mistake with the door controls actually saved Han.

Still a mistake, didn't explicitly save Han.

>Her rejection of the lightsaber actually let her help destroy Star Killer Base.

It did not. Her being captured was a massive problem.

She was basically young Luke, a person Han had warmed up to.
>>
>>79168997
>She didn't have a flaw the entire movie.

Didn't know her way around a gun, was obsessed with going back to Jakku, and refused to admit that whoever left her there wasn't coming back. Han would've been fine without her unleashing the rathtar on everybody and potentially getting Finn killed, and in general her approach to mechanical is to brute force it (which works with junk like the MF, but her aptitude with mechanics is clearly based around what you can find scavenging).

Just finished watching Season 1 to discuss the Series with you all. So far is a pretty good childrens cartoon honestly. The characters are funny and the plot good. I don't understand why some of you criticize it. Its good for what it is but if you want a serious plot for each episode then you are asking too much, this is a kids show after all, i'am not old so i can see why some Manchildren can get trigger with this show.

Denial to the Call to Adventure isn't a flaw.

Getting KO'd by Kylo Ren in the woods after fleeing Maz Kanata directly lead to Han Solo reuniting with Leia, and his decision to take the Falcon to Starkillerbase where he tried to reason with his son.

I think it's because some compare it to The Clone Wars series, which pushed a lot of boundaries in terms of content and violence.

Rebels plays it safe, probably due to some mandate by Disney, but it's still entertaining and spins a good yarn with Star Wars lore.

>These...aren't really very much of character flaws.

She's desperately afraid of being abandoned. She cries about it. She runs away and gets caught.

>Luke and Anakin were whiny bitches who constantly needed help.

Luke is mostly a witness in ANH, its only his piloting skills that really save the day.

9-year-old Anakin Skywalker destroys a Droid Control Ship, killing thousands, and achieves a devastating military victory that saves all of Naboo, by accident.

>In comparison, Rey is completely self sufficient with hardly any flaws.

Hardly any is not an absence. And let's be real, TFA was not a character study for anybody except Kylo.

>Being sad about family leaving isn't a flaw.

Clinging to the past is.

>There was literally one fucking moment of her hesitating in the hero's journey and it didn't even matter because Kylo showed up two seconds later and negated it.

Negated? Her choices lead to Han being killed.

>>79169909
No, most people like Rey. But that's because plebs always like boring characters. Particularly stronk women who have almost no flaws, which is what feminists want for some reason instead of complex, fleshed out characters.

Kylo and Finn were 20x more complex than Rey (not that that's saying much). But they were both relatively liked. Kylo surprisingly isn't full on panned by normies, which I wasn't expecting. He gets his share of hate but I was surprised at how many people seemed to like him in the end.

Maybe it's because it felt more like he put Han Solo out of his misery than murdered him. Glad Harrison Ford can finally wash his hands of all this, since he dislikes it so much.

Being afraid of being abandoned isn't really a character flaw, and it only serves to hurt others in that she ran away that one time. But Kylo probably would have gone after her anyways even if she hadn't, and likely succeeded.

Her getting KO'd was completely turned around when she managed to beat Kylo at his own game despite no training. Her flaws are already incredibly weak, but the few she displays are reversed to a crazy extent by all the things she can do.

I don't hate Rey, but there's a reason a lot of people are gunning for her to nearly go dark side. She needs a real struggle to be an interesting character.

>>79168997
>Were you really?
Yep.
>It was fine with her being 10X the most powerful Force user we've seen, but her never failing and Han loving her was too much
She really wasn't 10X the most powerful Force user in the least. After she acquires the saber at the end (it's not like the saber that was calling to her wasn't going to not choose her; how does a saber do that? Through the Force like everything else) her stance was half-hearted at best. Then we see her running like hell until cornered. It was only when Kylo Ren mentions showing her the ways of The Force that she mouths the words back at him. Then she closes her eyes like Maz told her to do and let the Force be her guide. It was her "Use the Force" Obi-Wan style moment. Afterward her attacks were hardly the most skillful we've ever seen. It was raw Force only. She predicted attacks and countered when she could. Given Kylo Ren was wounded and a conflicted mess after killing his dad he wasn't exactly the most challenging foe. He still requires training and he wasn't at his best.

As for Han's reaction to her, not sure why that would bother anyone. Han in this movie is a much kinder version. He doesn't snark at people too badly, and even took Finn a bit under his wing. He comes off as a fatherly figure to them both, but certainly more so to Rey. That's a major theme in the movie. Han is a wounded father. Was Rey a surrogate? Maybe. Or maybe he even knows who she really is, which is something they were very coy about. Especially when Maz asks who Rey is and they cut away. There is a very strong implication that there is more going on than the audience knows. Or maybe not. We'll find out next film, and if we don't that'll be some major bullshit.

Can I understand your view? Sure. I don't agree with it but I can understand people not liking her. We each have a different certain point of view on her. I just didn't see anything majorly movie breaking with her.

What I disliked the most about The Force unleashed is that Sheev was going to execute Bail Organa and Mon Mothma but they escape.

Obviously Han feels a connection with her because she's likely connected to or related to Luke. I thought this was obvious. Same with Kylo, who clearly knew her at some point. I wouldn't count their loving her as a Mary Sue trait so much as a product of plot convenience and hinting at her past.

Still think she's too close to a Mary Sue for comfort, though. Just not in that aspect.

You're arguing a hypothetical, which is meaningless. What if Han & Chewie stopped by earth and smoked weed? What is Finn shit on the floor? What if Poe kissed Kylo full on the mouth?

>Her getting KO'd was completely turned around when she managed to beat Kylo at his own game despite no training. Her flaws are already incredibly weak, but the few she displays are reversed to a crazy extent by all the things she can do.

She uses the Force. She literally used the Force. She learned the mind trick from Kylo's weakass mindprobe.

i really hope rey is no way connected to any current character.

im hoping sheev left a massive power vacuum in the force from killing most of the jedi and then him self getting canned.

so force users are popping up every where, new born babies, adults, children and the old are getting random force powers.

Rey was presented as a victim all along, not a flawed character. Her convenient incredible force power surpasses even Luke and Anakin. She was too strong too quickly. Maybe it would have been better if Kylo had been portrayed as weak in the Force but he wasn't. The opposite, in fact, until the end of the movie.

The reverse mind probe I actually didn't mind. I figure Kylo wasn't used to having someone be able to push back. Her getting that mind trick down on James Bond stormtrooper so fast was going too far.

It is, which may be why it is misdirection.

Unlikely misdirection but sometimes they do stupid things while trying to be clever. For myself I think they need a new generation of heroic Skywalkers. But maybe those two female roles are Luke's kids? Twin girls? If they ever were, which might be why they had a bigger part, that's likely changing with the rewrite.

I'm not 100% on her being related to Luke but her being a former student of his is a given at this point. The novelization all but confirms that Kylo knew her. Mindwipe seems to be pretty much canon too, considering how the novel describes the barrier Kylo runs into when trying to mind probe her.

>>79170611
That was actually some enjoyable irony. When Finn wants to get the hell out she tries to pull him back, not wanting to see him leave.

Then she does the exact same fucking thing to Maz and resists people telling her almost exactly what she said to Finn, to the extent that Maz sort of rolls her sunken eyes.

Is that an inconsistency? Bad writing? People can say so, but it's very much a human reaction. We're often pretty hypocritical without realizing it, especially once we get emotional.

>Episode 8 delayed 7 months
>being rewritten so filming is delayed

Honestly, it doesn't look like a filming delay to me. It's that they realized the five months they'd given themselves between Rogue One and Episode VIII were just too short for proper turnaround time in marketing and merchandising. Why? Because they'd have to start marketing for Episode VIII essentially simultaneously with final push for Rogue One and confuse the audience. Factor in a two month theatrical run and you'd be left with barely three months between movies. Disney can do that with Marvel movies, but they have a much, much smaller marketing push than Star Wars. The change in schedule gives added time to the production, yes (and I do think they were cutting that a little close), but it's mostly marketing that's the concern.

Some people think it was in a way. He overreacted to the attack, expending quite a bit of power when he could have just deflected the shot.

Does this matter? Not on the face of it, no. But it become something in his character when we later see him overreacting to problems, usually at the expense of the furniture around him. It even plays out in a way to his final duel in the movie. We've seen anons claiming Kylo Ren couldn't have been hurt because he was swinging his blade so effortlessly. Setting aside the blood splatter and his stopping to punch his own side while fighting Finn his swings aren't so much effortless as they are over-exaggerated. He's fighting VERY sloppy and first Finn and, later when she uses the Force, Rey use this to their advantage to wound him.

Whether all of this is truly connected, well, I could be overstating the matter. But it's how I see it. Individually I'd still say each matter holds true.

I will say it is absolutely insane how in the movie the X-Wings at Maz's castle not only dominated in the air but actually wiped out the ground forces. Just flying at those speeds and still being able to pick out individual troopers and shoot them perfectly, it was crazy.

And Poe likely did all that without an Astromech, since he was lacking BB-8. Poe obviously has the Force.

Using the Force to accurately make a shot with a ship-borne torpedo when one is already a skilled pilot isn't as hard to believe than Rey's 'close eyes for ten seconds and briefly become a lightsaber master' in TFA.


I'm pretty sure that if in their attempts to make girl-Luke, the fact that they didn't keep the whiny faggot bits of his persona did more harm than good to some people's perception of Rey.

He'd already been established as skilled in flying small craft, mainly his T-16 Skyhopper. Even so, he barely scraped by in the dogfight, mostly because all of the other fighters were seen as bigger threats, and when they finally got around to him, they would have killed him dead as well if Han hadn't rescued him at the last minute.

Making the shot was a matter of faith. It was all timing. It's not really an advanced technique, "letting go" and allowing the Force to guide you is the first thing you ever have to do, and it took him the entire movie to really understand it. It was, also, entirely passive. It was about Luke NOT being the hero who does everything because he's awesome, it was about Luke being a small part of something out of his control.

At first she was, but she'd fought him before while fleeing. Can't fault her for being that cautious/nervous around him.

Luke being a whiny faggot made him human. But it'd be too much of a repeat on Rey, and Kylo fills that particular Skywalker quota.

Yep. Luke did that when Artoo was shot in ANH. They mostly handle power distribution and sensors. They can also technically, I think, tap into flight and weapons systems. We haven't seen that with an X-Wing but they've flown Jedi fighters before. Hell, Chopper can fly the Phantom from his droid socket. Whether they actually help the pilot during combat, yeah, probably not. I guess it's possible.
>>
>>79171158
>Making the shot was a matter of faith. It was all timing. It's not really an advanced technique, "letting go" and allowing the Force to guide you is the first thing you ever have to do, and it took him the entire movie to really understand it. It was, also, entirely passive. It was about Luke NOT being the hero who does everything because he's awesome, it was about Luke being a small part of something out of his control.

Isn't that basically what happened to Rey? She stopped denying the Force, let it in and with it combined pulled off something she otherwise couldn't have.

What character arc? They've already thrown away the chance for her to have a typical hero arc. If anything Kylo's on that path, but the villain version. I really have no clue what they plan to do with her. My fear is that they'll just keep making her stronger with no real backtracking and struggle.

The switch up of Rey and Kylo for a portion of the trilogy is the only idea I can think of that would be new and cool. Rey would have to go back to being a hero at the end, of course, so fits aren't thrown. At least it'd be something different though.

>>
>>79171296
I'm not talking about the mindtrick. I'm talking about the lightsaber battle with Kylo at the end.

Luke had pulled off trick shots before, but the odds were against him. With the force, he guided the torpedo. Here, the Force guided Rey's lightsaber. That's what I felt when I got that scene.

She does the mind trick after Kylo tried to mindprobe her, during which she very quickly learned Kylo has a severe inferiority complex about Darth Vader.

I've seen people blame Kasdan for that but TFA suffers from a lot of the BS regarding time and scale that the Trek movies had. Hell the end of the movie looks like it only took 9 seconds for them to hop from the Resistance Base to Luke.
>>
>>79171296
Even if she had training as a child, it'd be all of five years of it at most. Not enough that she'd be that strong without working at it.

Should have had her counter Ren's mind thing, had her maybe be strong enough only to hold the Stormtrooper still until Finn and Han saved her, and enough to push Kylo back at the end before the planet split between them but not enough to fully beat him. That would have been enough to establish her Force talent without going overboard.

Not that, her controlling that Stormtrooper. That seems like it'd be a really fucking hard technique for a new Force user. Nevermind how she even knew she could do that. Kylo had never displayed that particular skill in front of her.
>>
>>79171415
Is the Mindtrick a huge deal? Kylo Ren invades her mind twice, second time she manages to flip it on him. Afterwards she makes several attempts to make a connection. And honestly when she did she became almost creepy robotic. Like the Force taking over.

I've seen people bitch about her pulling the saber despite Kylo Ren being better trained and she never saw it, but again if the Force wanted her to have the weapon as it had been calling to her, there's no way it would have chosen Kylo over her.

Still letting the Force be her guide isn't something she can rely on all the time. Definitely comes off as very rough, in severe need of training.

Yeah, it is. Kylo is incredibly strong in the force and he still had to learn the normal way (at luke's academy and under snoke).

The movie isn't even consistent with itself.
>>
>>79171501
I trust Rian with Kylo a lot. Seems like a character up his alley. I hope he does something good with the piece of bland whitebread that is Rey.

My biggest hope is that Finn's Stormtrooper brainwashing background is explored more. He was given one of the most unique origins in the series and it hardly seems to affect him at all so far. You don't just separate from years upon years of brainwashing that easily.
>>
>>79171384

>implying that much thought is going into the background development

>>79171417

Exactly.

Anybody who has been paying attention saw the writing on the wall for how Episode VII was going to turn out at least since JJ came on board (more broadly Disney's official statement about the Lucasfilm purchase portended the shittyness to come, but I digress). His directorial sensibilities in Star Trek clearly indicated that his vision for Star Wars would ultimately be governed by his virginal juvenile experience of the OT: all the flash, none of the substance. I'm absolutely not going to blame Kasdan, because we know perfectly well how a Star Wars movie unfolds when it's under his control.
>>
>>79171417
What did you wanted it to last forever to get to Luke?
>>
>>79171540
the force was different then, once light ruled the force, then darkness ruled the force.

no ones left to rule the force in TFA, hence the catchy name
>>
>>79171458
I don't think I would like this. I'd prefer Rey and Finn, but honestly I don't really ship any of the new characters at this point. Haven't seen enough of them
>>
>>79171540
Ezra has issues connecting with other people. It's a stated hangup. He CAN do it but has problems.

Considering when he lost control of his emotions and summoned a giant momma fyrnock, it seems like Kanan is deliberately withholding the mind trick from the kid's teachings. Can't say I blame him.

At any rate it is a skill Padawans learn. Ahsoka did. It's not the most difficult by far, but it is one the Jedi tend to only pass on when they trust their student. Considering it's the ability to fuck directly with someone else's brain (if they're weak minded enough) you can see why.

When we saw Rey using the Force both times it was when she had no choice but to try.
>>
>>79171493

Mind tricking people like that always came off as an advanced technique to me. And I always imagined influencing the mind to be a more subtle and refined use of the Force than pushing or pulling things, but obviously that has no bearing on the reality since it's what I personally feel.

Still, to support why I think that, Luke never used a mind trick until Episode VI, whereas he learned physical manipulation stuff in V.

And in the prequels, only Qui-gon did it in Episode I, Obi-wan only did it in Episode II, when he was a Master.

I don't mind the bit with the lightsaber so much since they seem to be pushing the Force as a semi-sentient thing that can briefly take over when you call on it as far as TFA goes. The Mind trick felt more off to me.

Honestly, it feels like they just wanted a mind trick scene in the movie and JJ said 'wait I got an idea we can do it like this' one day.
>>
>>79171458
I'd be fine with this. Rey and Finn had zero romantic chemistry. Fuck it was almost in the negatives.

I suspect she'll stay single like Luke did.

I have a feeling that episode 8 was meant to be told largely in flashbacks with young Ben, young Rey (although they'd keep that hidden for a bit somehow), and young other kid.
Probably to show a start of darkness and to show new characters if they really thought the new leads wouldn't be popular.

That's why I wish she'd only be able to just hold the Stormtrooper still or something like that so Han and Finn could save her instead of full on mindjacking him. That would still have been really impressive and not as ridiculously conveniently OP.

Finn fills Han's narrative space to Rey's Luke. They're not going to get together.
>>
>>79171602
Doesn't have to last forever. The suggestion of the passage of time is most often accomplished in Star Wars via unconventional screen wipes.

And it's just one example. The Falcon's arrive at Starkiller is timed to the second of Han finishing his explanation. Poe's "fleet" of X-Wings jump out of lightspeed the moment they hear the shield is down as if they were somehow parked in hyperspace waiting for that exact moment.

>>
>>79171750
Maybe not so much focus but new characters were going to play a much larger role. This is being scaled back (according to what people are saying).

The "odd reason" appears to be them rewriting the script based on how people reacted to TFA. They specifically waited to see how the movie played out before making sure the new script capitalizes on what worked, and presumably try to fix what didn't.
>>
>>79171720
Yeah VII's timing was incredibly off and far too quick. It was a huge mistake when trying to jump back into a series known for good portrayals of a vast universe. Ruined the atmosphere.

What are you talking about man? The only time Force-Sensitives were hunted was when the Empire was around.
>>
>>79171750
Maybe it was just that they were going to take some characters in different directions before they realized how popular they were and decided to rewrite them more satisfying arcs to please the masses. Not necessarily that the sequel would focus on new characters.

Somehow I can see them focusing on entirely new people while Rey and Kylo do their respective Rocky training montages, though. That would have been stupid as hell.

Apparently in-universe she didn't. 16-17 is usually when a person's voice "settles" after puberty. After that voices don't change, barring incidents, until we start to get much older.

What CAN change how a person sounds is experience. It's how they present themselves. Leia could conceivably at this time, given she's ~15 if not 16 (the passage of time in the show isn't very clearly marked), sound very much like her ANH self. She's already taking on responsibility and has the manners of her station and duties as a princess, coupled with her work in the senate.

should the jedi council hate me just because i want to be free?

I don't think they find Boyega unattractive, but they don't seem to find him sexy. Adam Driver isn't hot but he has this weird magnetism to him. Plus he's tall and built. Everyone thinks Oscar Isaac is hot.
>>
>>79172328
It's retroactively hilarious in the sense of how often the newer materials point out how visions can be misleading. Luke and Leia felt a strong attraction for each other, even love.

Unfortunately they misread the signs leaving the Force going, "Oh, oh shit, I didn't mean - oh god, put your pants back on! NOOOOOOOOO!"
>>
>>79172381
I wonder why grey jedi aren't more of a thing.

>>79172328

Pottery Barn never planned ahead. Vader was never meant to be Luke's dad, Luke and Leia were never emant to be siblings, etc.

Read Splinter of the Mind's Eye to jjust understand how little Lucas thought ahead. That book becomes ten times more hilarious once you realize it was a proposed sequel to ANH.

Yes. You can find it in the archive since it already fell off page 10.

>>79172407
I wonder if they're trying to rehash this for Rey and Kylo. There's weird sexual tension on Kylo's part which could be him mistaking his connection with Rey for romantic attraction like Luke and Leia did.

The Dark Side is not something you mix in lightly. To give into temptation invites addiction and corruption.

As per Lucas' view of the Force, there was no straddling the line.

I have to say I prefer AT-ATs going down a little easier to ship-sized cannons and ESPECIALLY missiles/torpedoes.

They made them wayyyyyy too tough in this.(And Kanan's lightsaber way too strong.

Really? Was it a reworked script?
>>
>>79172469
but the freedom to do so is important, the freedom the jedi took away.

they locked all knowledge of the dark side away and fought it back as hard as they could
>>
>>79172480
No, 3P0 has been filling that role. Why do you think he got a new arm?
>>
>>79172544
I think the plan was if ANH bombed the story could continue in book form
>>
>>79172509

Nah, it was good that the AT-ATs were more resistant.

>>79172580

Oh, that might sound familiar.
>>
>>79172544
>Really? Was it a reworked script?

It was Lucas' Plan B low budget alternative sequel to Star Wars if it did just okay at the box office.

So Han & Chewie were written out because Ford didn't have a contract for more, most of it takes place on one planet.
>>
>>79172289
Speaking of Hux, I can't figure out what the hell they want to do with that character.
>>
>>79172419
I'd say basing it on SofME is misleading given they cut Han out in addition to limited and simplifying things considerably since it was intended as the low-budget sequel in case the first movie didn't do so well.

Luke and Leia getting together could, therefore, just be the result of ditching Han. It also doesn't mean Lucas still wasn't planning on having them be siblings. It's possible.
>>
>>79172509
Vader also took down an AT-AT in the Marvel Star Wars comic using his lightsaber when rebels hijacked it.
>>
>>79172509
Lightsaber blades can't melt durasteel beams!

This was obviously an inside job. There are reports on the holonet the "lightsaber" in question was actually used by a STORMTROOPER. Read between the lines, people! All the evidence is there!
>>
>>79172612

None of that means that Lucas didn't envision the relationships as they unfolded in the OT though. It just means he planned for alternate contingencies.

Obviously the one he wanted is what turned up in the actual movies.
>>
>>79171953

Noticed that too, Leia's return also seemed kind of weird.

>>79172664
Then again giving how often he changes his mind it's possible one day he was at his typewriter stroking his beard and said. "Luke. L-U-K-E. Leia. L-E-I-A. My god, they both have four letters! And start with L! They must be twins!"

And thus pottery was born.
>>
>>79172614
I'll bet $20 that the first thing Kylo does upon returning from his training is force choke Hux to death when Hux tries to banter like before. Just to show an increase in his "Vaderness".

>>79172245
>a fair sized chunk
Luke calls her hologram beautiful, gets two kisses (one for luck, and one specifically to try and piss off Han) and then there's literally zero attraction after that.

Even Luke's rescue of her in ANH reads more like a kid living out his fantasy to be a hero, rather than any real attraction to the "princess"
>>
>>79172614
He's a fanatical military leader, like Tarkin but way more unhinged. I think he's going to go full suicide bunker in the end after how much conviction and hate were spewing out of him in that speech he gave.
>>
>>79172614
He's Kylo's foil in a few ways so far. Maybe they'll continue with that if Kylo goes down the route of further confliction.
>>
>>79172469
Grey jedi doesn't really mean "50/50 force user". The archetypal examples were all firmly on the light side, they just thought the order needed to pull the stick out of its ass.
>>
>>79172745
"fair sized" doesn't mean it dominated the entire movie but the romantic angles? Certainly all over ESB and again in Return. It all leads up to >>79172459

Yeah. Death Star II was not complete four years after the old one was destroyed. Starkiller Base has at most 31 years. Maybe less depending on how long they took to decide to build it.

Or perhaps more, if the Empire had started on it before Endor.

Yeah, it was basically Lucas' escape chute in case ANH bombed. It was written as being eithr VERY low-budget or a TV movie,w hich is why the entire story takes place in the jungle with no other locations.

It's a fascinating story to read, it's like seeing a half-formed painting or sculpture. All these bizarre ideas Lucas had about The Force and these characters glued together into this one story.

Yeah, the senate was always an orgy of corruption. Ironically, the senate became a comparatively good thing during the Empire because even though the corruption was still there, the senate still existing meant that good senators could still use that power to stop or at least stall the Empire's efforts to buttfuck the galaxy.

If it had started that way, sure. But no, they went out of their way to hide her past, with JJ pointing out that they wouldn't' say her last name for a reason.
