New rebels episode has Quarrie working on the prototype with Hera so they can get through a blockade.

If its a tribute to McQuarrie then I'm okay with it

Ugh, I'm sick of this entry-level fandom pandering.

Are they going to meet every fucking character in the franchise?

>>77355189
Well its basically an engine with 3 cannons, a rack of torpedoes, and a cockpit glued to it, especially in the first concept art. I can't exactly blame you.

And they've gone on record saying that Quarrie is a direct reference to mister McQuarrie. If you look at their B-wing its probably the best marriage between the original McQuarrie concept art and the original I've ever seen. I love that they made the central section look more like an engine without overblowing it.

You know what's weird, why is Kallus only commanding Arquitens cruisers, rather than regular Star Destroyers? Are other higher ups acknowledging his failures?

>>77355386
Kallus keeps failing, but he got promoted. The Empire is strange.

>>77355295
>Are they going to meet every fucking character in the franchise?
I hope not, I'm not a fan of that and would rather new shows be their own thing.

>entry-level fandom pandering
Not many people know who Ralpg McQuarrie even is, so it isn't 'entry level pandering'.

>>77355426
Sometimes you promote people to keep a better eye on them.

>>77355501
And it's not like they are going to say "Hey, your name sounds familiar, I heard he was a cool guy!" when Quarrie introduces himself.

>>77355426
Not really

During the Battle of Stalingrad, General Friedrich Paulus was promoted to field marshal after losing a key battle, by Hitler himself over the radio.

Hitler exclaimed that "No German field marshal had ever been captured alive."

Kallus will either succeed with his promotion, or die.

>>77355189
Personally I don't like them. I mean yeah, superior firepower and survivability and all that but it just looks ugly. Plus it has a spinning cockpit. A concept so ridiculous that the lore of a setting with laserswords that cut through everything and planet destroying battle stations has to point out it's a design flaw.

>>77355189
I'm really hoping this first Hera episode turns out good. I feel like I've got the gist of Kanan and Ezra at this point.

>>77355501

I mean entry-level fandom pandering as in any fan watching Rebels will get to see "obscure" characters show up because apparently they're just going to shove everyone into the show.

It felt natural in TCW, the characters had a reason to appear in most episodes, they were focal in the episodes.

Now it's like "Hey, remember DARTH VADER? WOW HE'S IN THE SHOW!"

"Remember LANDO? LOOK, HERE HE IS"

It's dumb. If you're not going to do something cool with the characters that justify their insertion, then don't.

Vader showing up and doing literally nothing other than look incompetent is fucking shameful.

Really? Vader, the Jedi-Purger, Sith Lord and second most powerful figure in the entire Empire couldn't kill a fucking Padawan and his under-trained Master?

Can I get a poll going? Answer as few or many questions you want?

I spend so much time with you awesome guys, but I don't know anything about any of you.

>>77355694
Vader got a hit in on Kanan and nearly decapitated Ezra with his own lightsaber. Most of the battle seemed to be Vader just toying with them, since I'm sure there are few Jedi left willing to fight Vader at this point in time. He also showed up because of the bigger plot going on with Lothal; you know, the whole Kyber Crystal mining operation that forced Tarkin's attention to the planet?

The Lando point I will agree with, though. At least they are showing his impact on the crew after his episode, with Ezra claiming to be him with Hondo.

>>77355694
Did you even watch the show?

Vader was after the Rebellion so he let them go. He then followed them, wrecked the Rebellion's shit and fucked off because he has better things to do then personally kill every half trained Jedi in the galaxy. Let the Inquisitors do their job.

Did you miss the parts where Vader orchestrated everything in siege of lothal? The very same parts that made it obvious that he's the one person in the show who's got his shit completely together?

Or that part where he deliberately didn't kill said padawan and under-trained master so they could lead him to a rebel fleet? Which he then killed literally by himself?

Not him, but there is one part of his and Kanan's "fight" where Vaders got him by the neck, completely disarmed with no incoming threats and instead of cutting him in half, leaving an angry untrained padawan open to dark side influencing, he fucking throws him and every time I see it I just think "WHY?"

I mean Kanan didn't need to be alive to follow the rebels and find out where the fleet was. But I guess Vader didn't know who was calling the shots 100% so I guess it's not that bad.

Actually kind of makes sense when you start thinking about it. Vader has no idea who the leader is and what their system of leadership is like. It makes sense to assume Kanan is the leader, as he is a jedi, and for all Vader knows Kanan is the only one who knows the location of the rebel base's current location. Best to play it safe in that sort of scenario and keep everyone who could have information alive.

I didn't mind Lando showing up in Rebels, but then again I never exposed myself to much Lando-stuff in the Old EU, so I always wondered what he 'd be up to.
I enjoyed it.

What I kind of don't like is how both the Story Group and the fans have to go out of their way to focus on the Inquisitor's power-levels. It's stupid, it detracts from the story, and it adds nothing.

He could still have done all of that, and killed the Jedi. He only needed the other rebels to escape.

There was literally no reason to not kill Ezra and Kanan. If he just wanted them to lead him to the rebellion, he wouldn't even need to show up and do battle with them.

It was clearly more of a case of "Welp, they escaped, but at least my plan is still valid."

Meaning they'll be going to important places, no guarantee on the rest of the schmucks. Also hitting them too hard could break morale and result in them abandoning the war altogether.

If they killed Ezra and Kanan, do you honestly thing Hera would have been in the right mind to even go back to the rebel base? Or any of the Ghost crew?

Vader let them go to fulfill a purpose, and it succeeded. He found a large Rebel Fleet and destroyed a command ship, it's fighter squadrons and most of the personnel within, thus crippling them a great deal.

>>77356695
He would have gotten them all too if not for commander fuck up.

>>77356756

>>77356756

Tales was the fucking shit; really amazing.

>>77356658
Only if they do the most cleche things with them. Like use them to over throw vader, or he tries to turn them to the dark side. What if the character only finds out well after Vader's death? They are living their lives, force free, then they have kids of their own. They are struggling with life like every other sentient and then some force abilities start to show up. The family doesn't know anything but they do what they can. The Jedi show up and the family allows the kid to go in for training. They are a perfectly normal student. Then they are sent out to do jedi stuff and nothing crazy or outlandish happens. They get old, retire from the jedi order to raise a family and then die of old age without having ever killed in anger or fallen to the dark side. And then, out of fucking nowhere Nothing happens. There is no twist, no prophesy, no grand war that demands the character's attention. They live a life free of tropes.

Better?

Years ago my friend preached that communism would be our salvation. He even got one of Mao's Little Red Books and everything.

Coon is a racist slur for black people. Though I've also heard it applied to poor white swamp people in Louisiana, but that might be a weird local variation. Coon ass probably makes it a compound word thus a different slur.

Canon is an energy field created by all true things. It surrounds the stories and penetrates them; it binds the stories together.

As such it's pretty important. If you don't like it, hide it, but whining about it is fairly screwy.

I just got done reading Tales of the Jedi for the first time. Great series of comics, really enjoyed it...but it left wondering the following: why the fuck would anyone let a Cathar become a Jedi? Between Sylvar and Juhani I'm now convinced that all of them, or at least the females of the species, are just psychopaths that fly into murderous rages at the drop of a hat. I mean, they probably make great dark siders, but why would any Jedi take that risk?

Coon ass is a separate term from just coon, yes. With the actual reasoning behind a mystery, two most common attempts to explain it being that Cajuns are even lower than niggers or that it's a bastardization of the word connasse (dirty prostitute)

>>77359544
Is connasse french derived? Because if so then that's it. That is very Louisiana.

It IS a slur specifically related to Cajuns and not just white trash, so yes that's the most likely answer.

Well Disney is playing us to get our money, otherwise they wouldn't have shelled out billions for the franchise, but for fools is situational and probably not true here.

Do you have any real thoughts to offer on the subject? Do you have any opinions that are your own about anything actually said in the video, especially as it relates to Star Wars: The Force Awakens?

>>77361268

Sum it up and I'll give my opinion. I'm watching a movie.

>>77360803
>in 15 years
Nope. Movie every year until 2027 IIRC and that's just what they have planned out. Those won't all be side stories.

communism hasn't ever been achieved. socialism has been achieved in varying capacities, but imperfectly, and in a pre-digital time where distribution and solving the calculation problem would have been immensely more difficult, with inferior technology arising almost entirely from societies that were less advanced than the capitalist nations that continually fought and sabotaged them, combined with influence from the USSR that itself was malformed from its birth. the failure of a concept in practice thus far does not mean that the concept itself is inherently wrong, or else we all should have given up on "democracy" a long time ago.

>>77361267
i was asked a question and i answered it, even noted that it wasn't probably the right sort of thread to talk about it but i answered it nonetheless to be polite. this whole thread has barely been star wars related but more about the people who post in the threads. contribute something to get it back on track or get over it.

>>77361095
He's absolutely right, but at the same time I don't believe the hype machine really has as much a role in whether something is a hit or not. Mass market feedback definitely has a role in deciding the image of a particular brand of media compared to individual mixed opinions, but in cases where something has prior expectations or a legacy to live up to while introducing bigger, "better" things, chalking it all down to "hype" doesn't really cut it in my mind. It's something else, but I can't put my finger on it.

That said, he sounds like a bit of an overly rational cautionary about everything, so it's hard to imagine him enjoying things if he hates the idea of getting excited for things

The video isn't going anywhere. Just come back after your movie.

It's okay to be anticipating a movie, but the Star Wars hype is far too much. That Force Friday thing was total nonsense. The movie sold out showings two months before it's even out? At that point, it's not even about the movie anymore. It's about being apart of the hype crowd.

>>77361341
I'm still debating whether or not I should get the movie marathon ticket. I haven't seen the OT in theaters yet and this may be my last chance to do so unless they decide to do the same with the other two movies in the new trilogy. I just want to complete the circle, having been able to see the Prequels in theaters, at least.

>>77361341

But what's wrong with that? Hype culture makes things even more enjoyable. It's honestly the best part about capeshit films. Avengers and The Dark Knight Rises were amazing midnight experiences.

Participating in culture is just a wonderful feeling. That's why we're all here in this thread.

>>77361341
>the Star Wars hype is far too much

Only Star Wars can have this kind of hype. It's a multi-generational thing that's been around for almost 40 years and you wonder why it's selling out showings?

>>77361318
>but in cases where something has prior expectations or a legacy to live up to while introducing bigger, "better" things, chalking it all down to "hype" doesn't really cut it in my mind.

I think that actually gives creators license to be lazy. Especially in video games. There was a hype frenzy when Star Wars Battlefront was announced, but now everything we know about it is very disappointing. Halo 5 as well. As long as people are buying it day one, you don't have to make it that great.

It's just like Hulk Hogan said to the cruiserweights back in WCW. "Why do you guys work so hard? We've already got their money!"

>>77361291

Communism is a pipe dream because it is LITERALLY impossible to get rid of social classes.

I intend to. Not saying you need to do what I do. Just trying to have a discussion.

>>77361404
>Hype culture makes things even more enjoyable.

Often times it makes you mad that you spent money on something that didn't live up to the hype. I definitely had buyer's remorse after paying IMAX midnight prices when The Dark Knight Rises came out.

>>77361401

Do it anon. Who knows when we'll ever see the OT in theaters again. That's why I'm doing it.

>>77361404
Disney shill detected

So what's going on in the thread right now ?

>>77361401
But you've already seen the movies.

>>77361442

I'm actually a really easy critic and get swept up in hype so I can't say I really experience that. I feel for you though anon. Shit must suck rising so high only to be brought down so low.

It's alright. But it's definitely not something she's going to keep to. Wouldn't mind seeing her in appropo Jedi robes once she readily assumes her destiny

Finn too, if he does end up being Force sensitive as I feel it'd be unfair to have his being the posterboy for the lightsaber as a red herring, even though all marketing so far seems to suggest that Rey indeed is the one who will awaken to the Force, and Finn is just using the lightsaber as a means to defend himself against Kylo

>>77361401
>>77361448
I personally feel like the price is too asinine to even warrant the thought. $60 for 20 straight hours of Star Wars? Highway robbery and major burnout if I'm going alone.

>>77361406
But that just sets the movie up to not live up to the hype.

Realistically, the movie has all the ingredients to be mediocre to good if you don't think about it too hard. But like the guy in the video says, all the marketing is designed to hit us in the nostalgia. To get guaranteed butts in seats.

Gamemaster may be an Imperial Hand.

>>77361448
Another issue that seems to have come up, is the issue of blackout dates at work. I don't know how I'm going to reconcile taking off work during the busiest period of the year because I want to watch Star Wars all day. Not to mention the announcement of advance ticket sales came a little too late into the schedule, so I'm not even sure if I can schedule off. I can only hope my boss will be understanding, as he knows my love for Star Wars - he gave me his recent issue of Wired magazine chronicling the rise of ILM and the special effects industry

>>77361459
True, but I've not seen them in theaters, with the works and the audience to share in my euphoria. I can pop them into my Xbox and watch them any old day, but to view them in theaters is an experience I've put at the top of my bucket list.

>>77361483

don't be a poorfag anon

>>77361460
It's not good to get swept up in hype and The Dark Knight Rises is a perfect example of it.

I know a lot of people who walked out of the theater thinking 'wow that was good' but the next day, after thinking about it, realized the movie made no sense and was shit. And there is no incentive to craft a better film because of hype. You'll see the movie no matter what because it gets hyped up.

I'm not saying don't see the movie. I'm seeing the movie. But I'm not getting in line at Toys R Us at 8pm for a midnight release of a kid's toy with 5poa. You wouldn't believe how many people were there for that around here. Cleaned out every store in a 45 mile radius.

>>77361488
And? I don't understand the argument. It's literally a product that Disney need's too see a huge return on.

>>77361524
>True, but I've not seen them in theaters, with the works and the audience to share in my euphoria. I can pop them into my Xbox and watch them any old day, but to view them in theaters is an experience I've put at the top of my bucket list.

I can assure you, it's an experience you will not be telling your grandchildren about.

>>77361488

It's Star Wars. It's not going to be Citizen Kane. Star Wars as a series is average. And as much as nobody ever wants to admit it most BLOCKBUSTERS aren't irredeemable shit. They're average.

>>77361552
What does that have to do with the movie being good?

>>77361291

You okay, anon, you okay

>these republicanons or neolibtards think that the USSR is an example of the failure of communism

>communism requires the abolition of private property and the resulting levelling of elitism

>the USSR was a dictator and his stable of elites controlling private property

Nope

one day, a true communist experiment shall occur

>>77361566
I never understood this argument. It's okay for it to be shit because it's a blockbuster.

Is there any reason in particular you feel blockbusters should not be good?

>>77361483
There's that too, yes. I'd only been made aware of the price a couple days ago. There's also the fact that the theaters closest to me are about an hour and a half away in both directions. I really want to do it, but time and money are just those things I need to think about now.

I can handle the marathon itself - I've done it every summer up till now and it's really not that exhaustive so long as you actually enjoy what you're watching. I'm gonna feel bad for all those who just straight hate the Prequels and would rather sit them out. That's literally half of their money wasted on what they understandably feel was a wasted Trilogy(even if I don't share the sentiment).

>>77361419

>>77361548

Eh Star Wars isn't even really about the quality. People just love the universe. People out there own Jar Jar merch.

Force Friday shit really came out of nowhere even still though. Like I was buying Disney Infinity shit the day before and Toys R Us employees started telling me about it and I had no idea what it was. Then I hear about it the next day and how huge of a thing it was.

Now, sure, what with having watched it at home ad nasuem. I'm a couple decades too late on that front. But still, it's something I'd like to do, even if I missed out on its being a mindblowing, once in a lifetime life-changing experience. Is that so much to ask?

You see though, based on how the force works in the new canon, it can't "awaken" in someone who already has it. It's always with them as soon as they are born and it always affects their lives in some way.

And the incredibly accurate MSW spoilers suggest that Rey uses the force multiple times without big hoopla even before she takes on Kylo with Finn.

>>77361483
I guarantee you that you're better off just firing up the DVD player and ordering some pizza with close friends.

$60 to see a bunch of movies you've already seen and probably own in theaters? That's hype train in effect. I wouldn't think people who actually read Star Wars comics and novels and watch the kids cartoons would be THAT starved for Star Wars like some kind of casual.

>>77361586

Never said that. I'm saying most blockbusters are competently made films. They don't break the mold but they're not the fucking Room or some Sci-Fi original.

But our culture only looks at what it popular and in the spotlight. Which is why Call of Duty and Star Wars prequels can be considered the shittiest things to come out of their respective industries despite the fact that they're average at worst.

Nobody talks about the 2/10s and the 3/10s.

7/10 - shit
8/10 - average
9/10 - good
10/10 - paid off

>>77361630

I keep telling you people, the Force Awakens in FINN, Rey starts out force-sensitive.. Finn gains his Force-sensitivity by being chosen by the Force or some shit.

>>77361620

Do it. It really is an experience everyone should have. Star Wars really is meant to be seen on the big screen.

>>77361609
>Eh Star Wars isn't even really about the quality.

You may think so, but that's not true. The original Star Wars movies blew the roof off of the filmmaking world at the time. They were innovative and literally changed the film industry. They were good.

>>77361630
From Maz's dialogue in the trailers, it seems like Rey's been deaf to the midichloriansForce within her, kind of like how Ezra'd been before linking up with Kanan, and chalking up his instinctual use of the Force to sheer luck. That, or she's suppressing it out of not wanting to deal with the baggage.

>>77361675

No it is literally impossible because somebody still has to run the damn thing. It's not anarchy. And the people running it will always be higher than the people who are run.

And even in this alleged land of perfect equality social circles would still crop up and push others out until it became another hierarchy even if it was independent from government.

Communism is a great idea but it requires everything running on a robotic level that's just impossible because people are emotional.

>>77361648
That's likely. But it's honestly hard to say, none of us having actually seen or heard anything to confirm it. The marketing (and MSW spoilers) have been very shifty on that front

And as was said, that's a problem. There is no incentive to do better because they hype it up and put on Burger King bags so you'll go see it no matter what.

Why deliver quality when they've already got your money?

Maz dialogue suggests that she's closed herself off from the Force, not that it needs to be awakened in her. And even then according to MSW, and confirmed by trailers, she says that the saber belongs with Finn.
