>and that the story of Star Wars was about Anakin Skywalker and all that stuff that got wrapped up in ROTJ. You don't really need to know what happened next because the important thing is that the prophecy was fulfilled.

Which is obviously made up shit because, as we all know, Darth Vader was just a henchman in the first Star Wars movie. The story was never really about him, at least not before the prequels made him seem more important than he actually was. You could argue that Star Wars has always been about the Skywalker family though, but it's pretty much confirmed that either Rey or Kylo or both of them are going to be related to Luke Skywalker in some way, so it looks like a natural continuation to me.

>Disney's sequel trilogy seems like a bonus story in a way, and that's just reinforced to me by the big bad being a brand new character who's only "aware" of the previous events.

Every single part of the Star Wars franchise except for ANH has been a "bonus story" in a way. TESB for example was just as "unnecessary" as TFA. The Death Star was destroyed and the Empire lost. No reason to continue the story, right? But if George hadn't continued it, then Star Wars would've "died" long ago and most things that got us interested about the franchise would've never been established.

I don't know what's harder to believe: That TCW died for Rebels, or that the same people who made that are working on it. It's not just that it doesn't measure up in animation. The writing is lackluster as well.

>“Supreme Leader Snoke is quite an enigmatic character, and strangely vulnerable at the same time as being quite powerful,” Serkis says.
it fits plagueis character

>“Obviously he has a huge agenda. He has suffered a lot of damage. As I said, there is a strange vulnerability to him, which belies his true agenda, I suppose.”
it absolutely fits as he suffered an assassination attempt from Kek Sidious, it should've messed his physical body up pretty badly. His true agenda was all the time to let plagueis make an empire and then for plagueis to take over the empire when kek sidious got killed, maybe it expands even further, I guess we'll have too wait and see.

fits plagueis character


>If Snoke is a “damaged” character, that raises the question: Did his wounds come from the clash between the Rebellion and the Empire, seen in the original Star Wars trilogy? Serkis hesitates here, but then says he believes Snoke was outside of that conflict.
nothing to add

>>77414422
It sounds like you haven't read much into George's various drafts and treatments for Star Wars. Pretty much all the important aspects of the prequels stem from those, and the general story of the prequels is summarized in the prologue of the 76 novelization.

My point is the ideas of the prequels come from the same wellspring that gave us the original Star Wars, before George elected to expand it. They're all unused concepts and ideas. The original movie itself may not have covered all that much about the old republic but George was always very concerned about the fall of the republic and the rise of the empire, and that's why he made the prequels instead of sequels, because he believed that the fall of the republic and the Jedi was far more important to the overall saga he wanted to tell than a sequel trilogy. And given the ideas presented in his early drafts it shows.

The ideas of Disney's sequels appear to be entirely made up. That's not a bad thing and it doesn't mean they will be bad movies. In fact I'm quite excited for them. I'm just saying that as far the big overtones are concerned, I agree with George's assertion that the story was effectively wrapped up with episode 6. Right now (and it could very well change) I just don't see episode 7 adding to those big thematic ideas in a meaningful way. It's basically just affirming that yeah, life went on after the credits rolled in Jedi.

It was boring, and you could easily assume what was going to happen when the 30 second promo was shown. Even if you haven't watched it, you could see the writing on the wall after three minutes of watching the episode and knowing how the other episodes previously ended.
>>
>>77414570

I don't think there's a lot of whining in the threads; I do think there's a lot of defensive fanboysim from people who can't accept something they like being criticized.

Every time we have someone pointing out a negative aspect from the show, or from a specific episode, we get this horde of people going "No one's forcing you to watch it!" or "Why can't you just accept things!".

This is toxic as hell, and that's what escalates these criticisms into full scale sperging that derails the entire thread.

Like I think yesterday, or two days I ago, some people argued that Sabine felt out of place in the Star Wars universe, and then the people defending her went fucking ape shit, like they were personally offended by it or something.

I think a lot of people in these threads are young and new to the series, and they might feel very passionate about all this, but they have to understand that this is a 40 year old franchise, and opinions and taste will diverge greatly from fan to fan.

>This is toxic as hell, and that's what escalates these criticisms into full scale sperging that derails the entire thread

You could also say that full-scale sperging is what causes people to be so defensive in the first place though. When people have stuck with the show and accepted Sabine as a part of Star Wars, and somebody comes in and starts sperging out about how she doesn't fit for a bunch of arbitrary, poorly-thought out reasons, that may cause a similarly fiery reaction, especially since most people in these threads have been dealing with that same type of ignorant half-trolling for a year now. And that's just for Rebels. TCW bitching has gone on even longer.

We haven't seen the full scope of the battlefield yet anon. It isn't just that small patch of sky over a small area of Jakku's surface.
>>
>>77414736

Sure, that happens too. I'm just saying that I see discussions spring much more frequently because of people going "shut up and accept this!" than from people whining about irrelevant stuff.
>>
>>77414778
And I see the opposite happen more than people saying "shut up and accept this." And I've been here for years.
>>
>>77414772
Well, we know from Lost Stars that Ree poises her ISD straight down at the planet to avoid capture. Her ISD is destroyed, as it should be, from this attempt. Most of the other ISD's in the area look like they crashed in a skidding kind of matter.

I'm pretty sure that's the one, plus Disney has been keen on connecting all their 'Road to the Force Awakens' material, so I don't see why there is any doubt here.

This actually kinda bothered me. In the Battlefront map there are multiple falling out of the sky durring the battle, but we never hear about them in the book. I wonder if the devs just didn't pay attention or something.
Plus, the battle is going on in the game AFTER the ship already crashed, but in the book I feel like its implied the battle ended by the time they are rescued from the escape pod

I would argue that's highly subjective. For instance, you can know that something is bound to happen but not the way, the why, or the when, and thus experience heightened suspense and anxiety as the story trucks toward its inevitable conclusion.

Not that I'm defending the asshole who didn't use spoiler tags though.

I don't even dislike the prequels but that death scene was so fucking awful. How did they ever okay that arms up death flail.

How much do you "zoom out" on the details in the prequels to make them acceptable? I doubt anyone has problems with the basic premise of "Anakin and Obi-Wan's relationship and Sheev's plan".

Uh, I can't really zoom out on them. Their faults are too obvious. I can delight in some of the action setpieces, the Separatists, and every scene Sheev's in, but I don't have a good suspension of disbelief for the films anymore.

Since the Death Star lasers were made from Kyber Crystals, as were lightsabers, could a bunch of lightsabers manage to stop a firing?

>>77415859
Assuming you're not just super autistic...

Why? It doesn't sound much different from Korriban and seems to be exactly the same in every other respect.

The name itself is a lot less stupid than most names Lucas came up with.
>>
>>77415883
Literally the plot of Rebels s1
>>
>>77415762
I meant in a plot-concept kind of way, with different levels of detail, the actual movie plot being the most detailed, increasing levels of vagueness being in between, and the basic premise being the least detailed. For example, you could be okay with the actual Anakin-Padme plot, the same plot but differently written, the same premise but different execution, or not accept it at all and want something else entirely (Padme not existing and someone else being Luke's mother with all the other implications that brings)
>>
>>77415668
What in the world could have possibly given you that nonsense idea?
>>
>>77415898
It's not as a good a name as Korriban. The previous name sounded fearsome and powerful, Moraband is just... meh.
>>
>>77415883
>>77415907
And the unfinished Utapau arc from TCW.
>>
>>77415859
Same. It's a pointless change to something we knew for years.
>>77415848
It could be stopped with one lightsaber. Just start cutting up the machinery holding the crystals together before it fires. That's all just regular metal. I mean, it'll take a while to get to each laser in the complex, but still.
>>
>>77415859
Jorge believes use of the letter K in sci-fi words is cliche.
>>
>>77415898
I guarantee you that you wouldn't have an opinion on the name if it never changed. You're just jerking off the new canon once again.

It's a totally unnecessary change. It doesn't mean something different, it doesn't sound better, it's just a change for the sake of a change.
>>
>>77415848
Someone draw Mogo with a lightsaber deflecting the Death Star beam.
>>
>>77415911
Oh, well, I think the plot could've been a lot better. The movies skip around the endgame point of getting Palpatine on the throne, killing off the Jedi and putting Vader in a suit. There are a ton of ways to accomplish those goals better than the prequels handled themselves.

As for all the personal relationships, those were fine. They just needed better writing for the actors to work with. I personally think Padme should've been rewritten from the ground up. Perfect and righteous queen of a utopian democratic world under siege by evil, the only person in the galaxy actively trying to do the right thing, beautiful and good in every way, and angel just as Anakin guessed she was. I'd trade all of that in just to have a sympathetic character with real depth to be Luke and Leia's mom.

So is it now

So is the Blade (B) Wing now the first one to have a designation outside of just a letter?

Way to put words in my mouth. I asked why he had a problem with it as it's hardly a significant change.

I prefer the name Korriban but I'm not getting butthurt on the internet about it.

The only thing I can imagine to see this happening is that one DBZ special from forever ago. Bardock and some other Saiyans try to blast Frieza to death in space, but Frieza just uses his own energy attack to wipe them and the homeworld out. I would guess that what the lightsaber can't physically block of the laser would still just go around and wipe out everything in it's path.

Rebels has been getting mostly positive buzz though.
>>
>>77416465
He probably sees it as an exact repeat for all the negative reception TCW got in its first two seasons. Remember the overwhelming hatred of the movie when it came out?

But many viewers eventually came to like TCW and plenty of people regard it even better than the prequels. And now that we lost it, we're back to hating the new face of the franchise. I just hope Rebels manages to do the same thing TCW did and grow into something beloved.

The TCW movie and the first season were total dogshit. Rebels isn't as good as the later TCW seasons (yet), but it started out better than TCW did.
>>
So I always wanted to ask this, which Clone Wars campaign did you guys like best? The 2002-2005 one or the one centered around the TV show?

I'm conflicted on this one but I think I like the old one better than the new canon one.

It's hard to explain, but if you liked the Umbara arc in TCW than you would've liked the first Clone Wars campaign since most battles and arcs were like that more.

The war just felt more violent and Grievous, Dooku and co. felt more threatening.

Though I will the canon one has more personality and characters that you end upone caring about more
>>
>>77416604
Right, so Rebels is in good shape so far.
>>
>>77416538
The movie still sucks as does season 1
I hope Rebels can reach Season 5 quality faster than TCW did
>>
>>77416627
You mean Genndywars? Eh, not enough character development compared to TCW. The battles were so grand and epic, so dense with droids and clones while the Jedi steamrolled everything in their path with newfound superpowers. I don't like it as much as I used to. It's still a brilliant artsy masterpiece by Tartakovsky, but I greatly prefer TCW to the old show.
>>
>>77416627
I like both. Some of the edginess of the first push, like all the stupid Quinlan Vos bullshit that infected the comics, kind of annoyed me. But there were plenty of annoying moments in the 3D cartoon as well. Never read any of the comics or novels produced during the 3D cartoon though.

>>77416692
I think he means in general. There's a pretty distinct divide between the Clone Wars content produced between AOTC and ROTS and the content produced circa the 3D cartoon.
>>
>>77416627
I like the original better, it felt grittier and more real. Remember Jabiim? Yeah.

Like this anon said >>77416725 I mean the whole multimedia Clone Wars project that Lucasfilm did between 2002-2005.

Genndywars was part of the project, but then you had games, comics and novels that covered the war as well.

>>77416782
oh yeah, I definitely remember Jabiim.

Another thing I kind of miss from the old Clone Wars project was that when it showed the Republic getting its ass kicked, it REALLY showed getting their ass kicked.

The Jedi were also shown to lose their way in a more realistic way than they did in the show.

I also liked how they found about Syfo Dyas late into the war but Sheev launched the Battle of Coruscant to distract them.

I kind of didn't like that in TCW the Jedi found out that the Sith created the clone army a whole 1 (or was it 2?) year before the war ended.

It makes them look dumber than usual

I wish Rebels pushed more multi episode story arcs and tried different genres like TCW did.

Like, you have this HUGE universe to explore, forget the imperials for a bit. This good guys foiling the bad guys' plans shit is getting way too samey.

TCW developed its stories further than "Republic vs. CIS"; gimme more outer rim adventures, Black Sun mercenaries, Twi'Lek internal clan intrigue, gambling in Nar Shaddaa with Devaronians, infiltrating Hutt family palaces to steal shit, helping exiled Jedi bring down dark cults seeking powerful artifacts in forgotten temples, I don't know, it's such a huge universe and so many possibilities, yet the show makes it seem so small, empty and bland.

Man, if there has been one thing that really makes me feel let down about rebels, it's the music. It's just so clunky and obtrusive at all the wrong times.
Either the dialogue or the acting comes a neat second though.
I get what they're doing here, it's a Sergio Leone reference, the problem is that it just comes out of nowhere and lacks any of the tension that actually makes the scenes work, thanks to that little trilly flute in the back there.
I know no one is going to draw their gun because the character was just introduced. As a film buff, this erks me.

I'd honestly prefer him to stay the way he is.

Reintroducing him would simply encourage yet more cheap knock offs that keep cropping up, rather than encouraging people to come up with their own ideas on how to make villainous droids memorable.
One of the things I like about Chopper is that they managed to make a crazy sociopathtic droid that doesn't just shamelessly ape HK

>>77417603
Do I really have to explain this to you? I made a joke to show that Kasdan and Abrams wouldn't care about a character like Plagueis who was just mentioned in one scene. General audiences don't know that character and a twist like that would be needlessly convoluted and confusing to almost everyone. It would be bad storytelling, but I don't expect Plagueisfags to understand that.

I consider both it and the second season to be useless. Back when it first started I tried to get into it and was appalled at the wasted potential. I thought it was another cash grab move by Lucas to push the franchise onto the only generation he could appeal to any more; small children. Even now I just don't rate them as worth the time spent watching them, and would recommend anyone wanting to watch to just go straight into season 3.
I dropped it hard back then and didn't pick it back up until after the show had been cancelled, which I maintain was the best course of action.
And, yes, I do think the Malevolence, Ryloth and Clone arcs were shit television.

When they pull the Venator up on its side so the droid ships can only fire at the bottom while they launch all their fighters protected by the bulk of the mothership.

I can't even have a discussion with people about how the exploding Star System bullshit makes no sense, because even Super Novas expand only at 8 miles per second, so it would literally take weeks before an exploding sun would have any effect on its own planets, which is a pathetically slow reaction in the Star Wars universe where the republic can probably evacuate the entire fucking solar system in that time.

What I wanna know is who thought this was a good idea. This is like everything wrong with modern film franchises. This is shaping up to be a rehash of IV with a BIGGER Death Star, a hip young DIVERSE cast that all the young folk can relate to, and your old favorites back for fanservice.

But the chances of the movie being good are slim. The only people I see expecting it to be great are the people saying 'but it's Star Wars'.

Which is fine, it doesn't need to be the best movie ever, but if you think it's going to be an honest to Force great film, you're deluding yourself.

I expected something NEW. Something different. Back when the sequel trilogy wasn't even put to paper Jorge said it was gonna be at least a hundred years after ROTJ.

You won't get that with a lot of fans, and Star Wars is so big it's hard to get it overall. The last time that happened was the OT. If I remember right the reviews for the OT weren't the best, but public enjoyment won. It's why movies are like they are today.

Man Jorge says all kinds of shit. Back in the 80s he joked about doing the sequels when the main cast was in their 70s. Thing is Lucas has never had a definitive idea for the sequels, which is precisely why he did the prequels first instead. He already had real ideas for those.

A lot of people here seem triggered by the idea of a SW animu but I wouldn't mind it. I feel like an adaptation like the mangas would be kind of a waste of time, I'd rather watch something original. Maybe set in the Old Republic era for some badass Jedi on Sith action?

As is explained whenever this is brought up. hyperspace lanes are a thing in SW. You always come out of hyperspace in the same place.

You also don't blockade with slow ships so that when they come out of hyperspace you can match their movements to prevent them from just "going around".

>>77421132
As mentioned earlier, blockades are positioned right at the exit point of a hyperspace lane. You can't "approach from the top" because you exit right in front of them. Even if you were to jump in somewhere else, ships can just move to intercept you by the time you'd get close enough to the planet.

Here is the situation set up between The Resistance and The First Order for The Force Awakens.

Empire is in fact dead and the New Rupublic rules most of the galaxy. The Imperial remnant becomes The First Order and holds desperately onto the small portion of the galaxy that they hold. The New Republic doesn't want to fight any more wars so they decide to grant them their small portion of the galaxy and be done with it.

The Resistance are filled with people that live in both the First Order territories and those that are from the New Republic and disagree with allowing them to be. They try to get the senate to listen but they don't fucking give a damn, so they're left no choice but to attack the First Order and liberate the territories themselves.

The End

So I initially thought the Hondo episode was sort of funny but on a rewatch it's really sad.

Like this guy was once on top of the underground world to the point where Jedi and Sith came to him but then now he's got like no friends at all, nobody to talk to, a bounty on his head and literally running broke. He has nobody to talk to and nobody who cares about him. It's an episode about an old guy still trying to be the same old badass as he was before but desperately needing someone to be his friend

The fact that a standalone Solo movie is confirmed instead should be enough evidence that Fett is not going to headline a movie.

It's funny cause that's one of the things I like about the prequels. I thought George was very successful with his visual pottery. It kept everything feeling like Star Wars but allowed him to craft a sort of mirror of the OT with its own distinct attributes as well.

I recognize I am in a minority here but it always rubs me the wrong way that Star Wars fans just want everything to stay the same.

Well see, I think the prequels are kind of a mess, but you can kind of see how they were an extension of Lucas's style and sense of creativity, as childish as it often was. The planets for instance.

In the original trilogy you had
>Desert planet
>Ice planet
>Gloomy swamp planet
>city-in-the-clouds planet
>forest moon

A trend the prequels continued with
>City planet
>oceans-through-the-entire-planet planet
>volcanic planet
>rainy ocean planet
>(tell me if I missed anything)

So what do we see in this new movie?
>Desert planet
>Ice planet
>snowy forest planet that looks a lot like forest-moon

This is exactly what I was worried about when I heard JJ was taking over. The man doesn't have an inventive bone in his body. He takes concepts from other things, and rarely improves on them in very meaningful ways, often simply serving them up straight or just mashing up in slightly new ways. As a filmmaker I find him to be usually technically competent but creatively boring.

They control a rich section of the Galaxy and have the man-power and strength to create a Planet sized Death Star that can apparently kill entire star systems, and have a functioning Army and Navy. Saying they're too small to become a threat is what got the New Republic in this mess they're in now.

Not at all, the prequels felt totally different. Part of what made the OT so enjoyable was the fact that the heroes were underdogs, so we wanted them to succeed against this powerful Empire.

>It's pretty annoying how the "fans" here think people want the films to be copies of the original films and not simply wonderful adventures with heart and soul like them

But too often people think those things have to go hand and hand. And the OT is great, and there are plenty of spinoffs, so I don't think people should hate on the prequels solely for trying something different.

>something we didn't really experience with the prequels despite their attempts due to the poor dialogue, awful emotional displays and absurd character interactions

Well I would argue that the prequels are supposed to be rather bleak, with heavily flawed, hypocritical characters. I mean it's basically a tragedy, all the major players are fools played against each other by Palpatine. So you can't really tell the story and have that underdog heart and soul of the OT (Phantom Menace is closest to that). They're two different stories.

At the same time, I won't argue that in many ways George failed to deliver on his vision for the prequels. They have bad dialogue, ramshod editing, and The Phantom Menace is particularly convoluted. But I still appreciate what he was going for, and he always wanted to do it even back in the 70s.

>>77423471
>The prequels lacked tension since the enemy forces were weaker than the republic and they were never really depicted as a real threat anyway

There is no tension in the war itself because the war is a sham engineered to cripple the republic and destroy the Jedi.

>>77423406

>>77423423
I just want them to be good Star Wars films, that's it. I don't want copies of the OT.

Also, 90% of the dialogue in the prequels is no worse than the OT, the emotional displays(I'm assuming you're referring to Anakin) were actually pretty accurate for someone who's been told to repress their emotions for 10 years straight since age 9. I didn't find any of the character interactions absurd either, at least no worse than the OT.

Now the 2 dimensional area of, oh let's pick the middle, a diameter 150,000 light years would be...70,685,834,705.77 square-light-years.

When does 415 sextillion ever come up in your day to day life? It's almost a meaningless number at that point.

Is this bait? You're practically saying "I was disappointed the prequels told a different story than the originals, and I'm glad JJ is going to tell the same story again." Of course a series about the fall of a Republic isn't going to have an underdog feel. It's going to have a feeling of something being corrupted or falling into the dark oppressive state the Empire had established at the beginning of "Star Wars". The prequels were often poorly acted, with misjudged use of special effects, and laughable fanservice elements, but your argument seems to boil down to a criticism based on "Not muh Star Wars."

The idea is that tech boomed to a point where it more or less can't expand further without bankrupting people and that this state of development has been around for so long that so many alternative technological trees have emerged that others have been lost completely for various cultural/financial/practical reasons and become lost technologies.

You must be very young or joking. None of the other Jedi act in such embarrassing fashion as Anakin, the reason he acts the way he does is because he's got emotional issues that the Jedi surely helped. Had he been left on Tatooine he would have grown to be a thug.

And Jedi are only supposed to make sure their emotions don't cloud their judgment, not turn them off completely.

Keep watching. If you really care so much about him, things do get better for him before they get much worse towards the end. He finds his purpose, only to realize that his own interests and well being weren't exactly in line with those of his final Master, turning him back into a sympathetic character in his final moments. Savage's journey is about finding purpose, only to be dragged by the collar at every turn he makes, getting into battles way out of his depth and not exactly of his choosing or . It's kind of what you're in for when you involve yourself with the Sith, knowingly or otherwise. And that's what makes him interesting, silly name aside.

>but your argument seems to boil down to a criticism based on "Not muh Star Wars."

And that's basically my problem with the Plinkett reviews and the shadow they've cast over this fandom. They're funny as shit, and Mike makes some good points. When he's right he's right, and I won't disagree. But too often he strays into nitpicking or criticizing things based on what he thinks Star Wars is and at those times it kind of comes across as "not muh Star Wars."

I have a theory that this is a view commonly held by people for whom the OT was a really big influence in their childhood. But my dad for instance was a grown man when the OT came out and he didn't hate the prequels. The bad acting and writing, sure, but not the art direction or the story. He actually really liked those aspects. The royal starship and the podracers were among his favorite Star Wars vessels. And he was a huge Star Wars fan, he used the movies frequently as material in his classes.

Anyway I just worry sometimes that the subjective aspects of Plinkett's reviews have been taken as gospel by some of his viewers.

"Empty"
There's gas clouds of almost random composition, fields of asteroids that could each have as much of one element as there is on an entire planet (the bigger ones at least, there's possibly asteroids in our solar system with more gold or silicon than we have on earth), there's powerful energies of who fucking knows radiating from god knows where, dark matter, dark energy, charged solar particles fluttering around, et fucking cetera. Space is as empty as the ocean. It only looks empty, there's more inane and insane shit going on than the average person would ever care to know about. Thank goodness this site ain't exactly for them.

Any director who isn't completely braindead would come up with an original story instead of ripping basically everything from the OT.

Let's go over some facts with you.

They're countless TINY PEOPLE (essentially) that live inside you and tell you what the Force wants because you can't possibly know without them, they're also the TINY PEOPLE responsible for creating all life.

And the reason they're called TINY PEOPLE is that...get this...THEY'RE ALL FULLY SAPIENT, YEP, THEY'RE ESSENTIALLY A WORLD OF PEOPLE LIVING IN YOUR CELLS THAT LITERALLY TALK TO YOU, NOT FIGURATIVELY, THEY HAVE CONVERSATIONS WITH THEMSELVES AND YOU

It's stupid. Which is why JJ has essentially removed them completely and they make no mention in the films. They're dumb and you're dumb for liking hem.

They are bad because they were totally unnecessary. Lucas created them to establish how much potential Anakin has without having to show it to the audience instead. It's just bad writing.

I don't really think it's good, even if you do realize Midichlorians aren't the force. I can understand the desire to explain why Luke being Anakin's son is significant for his ability to use the force, but that doesn't have to be explained with space-germs in his body that sound like mitochondria and make it so that he is able to use the force. In the original Star Wars, it seemed more like the force was just there, and you could tap into it if you had faith in it, and really intended to use it. What seemed to separate Luke's ability to use it and Han's lack seemed more about mindset than biology. The Prequels then went and said, "nope, you can be a jedi if you've got the special jedi germs."

Nah, I mean, you see how Anakin is strong in the Force because he's a 9 year old mechanical prodigy and the only human who can podrace.

I like the OT but I love the prequels. Mostly because the OT feels to small-scale to me. The prequels really upped the ante by showing us so much more of the galaxy.

>>77424087
Well when you describe it like that of course it's going to sound stupid.

Let's use the actual canon description instead.

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Midi-chlorian/Canon

>Midi-chlorians are microscopic, intelligent lifeforms that live within the cells of all living beings. The Force speaks through the midi-chlorians, allowing certain beings to use the Force if they are sensitive enough to its powers. Midi-chlorian counts, used to determine a being's potential in the Force, could be tested by examining a subject's blood. The highest known midi-chlorian count—over 20,000—belonged to Anakin Skywalker, the Chosen One who was believed to have been conceived by the midi-chlorians.

>According to legend, midi-chlorians originated on a planet in the heart of the galaxy, from which life was also said to have emerged. The midi-chlorians played a role in eternal consciousness; as all living beings generated the Living Force, it fed into the Cosmic Force and communicated through the midi-chlorians, allowing a being who had the knowledge to manifest themselves after death.

>>77424132
>In the original Star Wars, it seemed more like the force was just there, and you could tap into it if you had faith in it, and really intended to use it.
That was never a thing. Fans just assumed that was how it work, but none of the OT implies that anyone can use the Force.

Luke literally says it's biological in RotJ when he talks about how the Force is strong in his family.

The prequels only established that there was a way to test for Force sensitivity in cases where it's not entirely clear, like Anakin.

Lucas himself said that everyone can use the force back then.

That's like saying you can't believe people like Star Wars more than The Odyssey because The Odyssey came first.

>If it isn't your favourite set of SW works you can't really call yourself a fan.
You can't call yourself a fan because you like one part of a franchise better than the other? There are people who prefer the EU to the films. There are people who think KotOR is better than the OT. They're still fans because they still like Star Wars.

>>77424385
That never made it into the films though. In the entirety of the OT, nothing implies or states that anyone can learn to use The Force. RotJ directly states it's a biological thing.

It was quite obviously an abandoned idea of Lucas's. Just like the idea that lightsabers were heavy when that never was shown in the films, since luke was able to turn it on and hold it easily in Ben's hut.

>>77424345
But he's saying that if you're a Star Wars fan (not just some dumbass who saw Attack of the Clones in the theater years ago as a kid) that likes the prequels it's very unlikely that you'll hate the OT, in fact you probably like the OT more. Doesn't mean you can't find things to like about the prequels and it certainly doesn't help that OT diehards never want to have a real discussion, they just want to repeat the same vague statements about quality and flame anyone who says the slightest positive thing about the prequels. It's really quite childish.

I can't tell if you're being serious or not but a snob could easily apply this to the OT as well. In fact I'm sure Alec Guinness said something similar.

Point is it's all relative.

>>77424385
I sort of agree, I like that it seemed to be an introspective thing you had to unlock, it reflected real-world practices of attaining enlightenment.

However, when you remember that nothing in Star Wars happens by accident, from a certain point of view you could say that anyone who learns to use the Force was meant to, and thus had it inside them all along.

>It was his fucking name, not a title. I think it showed a severe lack of creativity to slap Darth onto everything. I'm hoping it's gone forever.
Vader was always a "Dark Lord of the Sith". It's perfectly fine to turn Darth into a title, especially since ANH is the only film to ever really imply it was his name.

>Black Lightsabers
you mean one black lightsaber that was ancient and could easily be the only one of its kind?

Except they're not. Everything Star Wars is: an homage to the old planetary romances, a space opera, science fantasy, the hero's journey. All of it is best exemplified in the OT.

If they do not like the OT best then they are not fans of Star Wars, they are fans of something similar to Star Wars but not quite the real thing.

In Star Wars, it is though. It's exactly like that.

If anyone can use the Force then why was Luke so important?

Why didn't Obi-Wan and Yoda start a new secret Jedi academy?

Why didn't Obi-Wan start training Han and Chewbacca?

Why didn't Obi-Wan or Yoda tell Luke at some point that anyone can learn with enough training, instead of talking privately about how they have one other hope?

The OT is not as airtight as some people think.

No, there is a certain level of quality that exists within film.

There's a reason that only the original trilogy was deemed to be worth preserving in the national film registry and not the prequel trilogy, if you would stop being so stubborn and defensive you could open up your mind.

How can you possibly be defending the garbage films that shat out that insanely awful interaction between Kenobi and Anakin at the end of Ep 3? Just...wow, that shit is EMBARRASSING TO WATCH. Anakin shouts whole bunch of fucking nonsense that can't possibly be believed...not even by himself! Yet it still happens.

People that aren't into fiction at all and aren't fanboys of even the smallest magnitude or caliber have enjoyed the original trilogy. People that even HATE such fantasy have fallen in love with it and consider it to be a tribute to what the heights of filmmaking can be.

All that isn't the prequels, that's for certain.
>>
>>77424768
And there are still people who hated the OT, such as Alec Guinness. People who would apply this very quote about the prequels to the OT:

Anon, I hate to break it to you, but this isn't 1983 anymore. Star Wars isn't just 3 films and some subpar merchandise from Kenner.

This is 2015. Star Wars is a 6 film franchise(with more on the way) with hundreds of books, dozens of games, hundreds of comics, and merchandise everywhere.

The force is strong in Luke. Stronger than in anyone else probably. That doesn't mean that Han couldn't learn the ways of the force too.
The problem with the force being completely hereditary is that it is a very depressing concept and doesn't fit with Yoda's and Obi Wan's explanation of the force being "everywhere, even between the land and the ship" and "binding the whole galaxy together". Everyone should have the potential to use the force, not just some special snowflakes.

Lucas had a vision. He made six films based off of it. All six are Star Wars. He completely botched the execution of the prequels but the vision survived which is why a lot of the prequel
era stuff is so great.

Those hundreds of books etc no longer exist because they were not consistent with the vision, in fact they were all over the fucking place. The nucanon is explicity designed to keep things consistent, with each other and with the essence of Star Wars.

The Force is in everyone. Not everyone can use it though. It's very simple.

In fact, the reference to it being hereditary/only some are force sensitive is mentioned twice.

When Yoda is dying, he tells Luke that The Force runs strong in his family.

Luke later repeats this to Leia when revealing he's her sister.

>>77424846
No it's not. In our world, anyone can learn a skill as long as they put the effort into it and aren't missing limbs, mentally disabled, or otherwise not a healthy human being.

In Star Wars, The Force is a magical power that, with training, can allow people who are sensitive to its powers to do extraordinary things. It is in every living and nonliving thing, it surrounds, penetrates, and binds the galaxy together.

You know he didn't have a choice, right? You weren't allowed to just go and present yourself at court because you though you could write well for them.

I don't see how you guys like the OT so much, you can tell how stuff is models and even sort of see the wires of stuff. At least the effects in the PT are all CG and high tech. Also the lightsaber fights are way cooler than in the OT

Prequels where different types of movies to the OT. GL once said "Never make the same film twice" Hence why the prequels aren't the copy paste OT fanboys wanted. The dialogue is just as cardboard as the OT sometimes awkward but it matters little because it's supposed to feel like a golden age pulp sci fi fairytale with cheesy dialogue and unrealistic romance. People just don't get this. It's great escapism and I love the way george tried to capture classic cinema, especially in episode two with a shitload of movie references a film buff like me loves. The prequels are movies movies. And so are the originals. I love them both for that warts and all.

My biggest complaint with REBELS is that they didnt have slightly different TIE Fighters and Stormtrooper outfits. Like somewhere between Ep III Clone Troopers and Ep IV Stormtroopers. To give it it's own visual identity

Like the TIE Fighters and Stormtroopers we see in ANH are actually the most recent cutting edge, top of the line Empire technology
