New update on the Databank:

"The Z-6 Jetpack was the preferred jetpack of Mandalorian commandos across the galaxy, from the more organized sects like Death Watch to the outliers on the fringe, like Jango Fett and Boba Fett."

Jango and Boba are Mandalorians again. Now everyone can stop worrying. And by "everyone", I mean no one.

Against what Lucas/Filoni said, and what Pablo tweeted just weeks ago? Nah, just seems like someone overlooked poor wording.

For one thing, Jango and Boba aren't Mandalorian commandos, a commando is a special forces soldier. The Fett's aren't in any kind of military group, they're just Bounty Hunters.

I'll fess up and admit I am wrong if the upcoming Concord Dawn episode changes anything though, but I am honestly not holding my breath.

Snoke could be human who got deformed by meddling with the dark side.

No, not necessarily. Neither Dooku nor Kylo Ren looked deformed. Snoke was probably badly injured by someone, but he's probably not human.

As someone who has never watched this series I have a few questions, if some anon would be so kind as to answer:

1) is it any good at all? I love Star Wars but have an autistic disgust for the prequels. If this could somehow convince me to actually give a shit about Anakin, boy that'd be great.

2) So does the alien chick die? I mean she has to die, right? Otherwise, in TFA, Luke being the last jedi is totally pointless. But also, isn't she the protagonist? So how are they supposed to kill her?

>>
>>79037353
Well I will agree that even in the rough you can still find diamonds. Even the worst episodes offer something. Meebur Gascon brought us Gregor, Clone Bromando. The Artoo/Threepio adventures in diversion gave us poor Wolff's headache over droids and some people really liked that magic fairy frog lady. And they murdered that one meebur gascon sized thing.
And at the very least the worst can actually make you appreciate the good even more.

But then the purpose of the chart is to whittle it down to the generally accepted gems because there are some people who refuse to watch anything else. That's who the chart was made for. People who would never watch it all (especially if it's a Jar Jar episode).

During Return of the Jedi Darth Vader talks about Obi-wan trying to turn him back to the light side because there is good in him.
Nothing like that happened in Revenge of the Sith.

There is some room to have Obi-wan/Vader scenes in rebels.
>>
>>79037647
That's not what this conversation is about and you know it. Aside from Tarkin's or Yoda's words about the Jedi being completely extinct, there is no logical reason why they wouldn't have been in the OT to help Luke and the Rebellion if Ahsoka, Kanan and Ezra were still alive during Luke's training. On the contrary, there is no reason to keep them alive. It would just be forced fanservice, like keeping Han alive would've been only to give us a later reunion. It wouldn't be good storytelling.

>>79037759
>Nothing like that happened in Revenge of the Sith.
Exactly as it did here? No, but that doesn't mean Obi-Wan didn't try to talk some sense into him multiple times throughout their encounter on Mustafar. You really need to learn how to examine dialogue. Not everything needs to be literal.
>>
>>79037647
Her root training is still a strong Jedi foundation and she certainly still affiliates with them. And at this point you can self-identify with the Jedi. It means very little. There is no Order, no Council, not even any temples left that aren't abandoned (except for apparently this one with some kind of Jedi cultist dudes). It's Filoni's main point on Luke being called the Last of the Jedi. He's the only one left with two direct links to the Order, chosen by fate, the Force, and the Grand Master of the old Order.

Not really arguing with you, more curious in exploring this situation. Seems that now that TFA is out the periphery materials will start exploring some of its foundation. One of these, I suspect, will be a broader exploration of the Force, including ancient aspects, which we've seen and will see more of in Rebels, and modern interpretations. Namely the way the Rebel Alliance says, "May the Force be with you/us". It makes sense that facing such a massive, unrelenting foe as the Empire certain Rebels who know the Jedi exist still trust in the Force, while others just need to believe there is something mystical backing them up, giving them an edge over their enemies. Times may be rough now but it will see them to deliverance, even by miracle.

I suspect the comics may start to explore this, especially this Church of the Force that existed as an underground faith during the Dark Times of the Empire. I wonder what this church does. Do they wear necklaces bearing the symbol of the Jedi Order secreted on their person and kiss them before battle?

I don't fully agree with those people, but it does seem kind of convenient that Disney lined them all up to not be true Jedi. Just seems a bit too calculated.
>>
>>79037885
So pure assumptions, I see.
>>
>>79037908
No one is saying the scene is writen well but theres some pretty obvious subtext of Obi-wan trying one last time to turn Anakin back.
>>
>>79037882
They wear the guard masks and yellow blades, but no clue. The Jedi Temple guards, after all, had their own foundation in ancient traditions/dress of the Jedi Order. These can look like them and not be survivors from the temple. Hell, they might not even have any connection to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Imagine a remote temple still in operation, sequestered from the rest of the galaxy for hundreds or even thousands of years until discovered by the Rebels. That's a possibility, at least.

At any rate the temple guard were already very, ahem, cult like. Their masks hide their identity as they are considered as sacrificing their own interest in self in favor of the Order. It's considered quite an honorable profession, the ultimate symbol, in some ways, of devotion to the Order. "Cult" is an unflattering word for it, but that's rather what it would look like to outsiders. They take the notion of service to the whole over self much farther than the other Jedi.
>>
>>79037966
Might as well back some of that up with a source in case anyone wants to know:

http://www.starwars.com/databank/jedi-temple-guard
>>
>>79037966
I would like to know why they were gone when Vader sweeped the temple.
>>
>>79037908
No one's saying Obi-Wan did a good job of it, but it is there. You just decided to skip over every other piece of dialogue where he's trying to reason with Anakin - though much of it is chastisement.
>>
>>79038016
They could have been guarding outpost temples. The Jedi used to use satellite temples, like those on Lothal, so that Jedi would have places of worship (they can mediate anywhere but temples are founded on areas exceptionally strong in the Force which amplify the experience), camaraderie, or access to kyber crystals.

The fact that this temple was overlooked by the Empire is odd. Maybe that lends credence to the idea that these are a splinter group that even the main Jedi forgot about, or these are Jedi who retreated from active temples to ancient, forgotten ones. Maybe they built a new temple for themselves. Or maybe they are survivors of the Jedi who have rededicated themselves to some ancient, martial form that finds it's same roots in the philosophy behind the Temple Guard. Maybe when they Jedi were at war with the Sith, before the reorganization of the Republic 10000 years ago (mentioned in some detail in the Tarkin novel) the Jedi's more militaristic incarnation appeared very much like the temple guard. That would be interesting. After the supposed ancient defeat of the Sith the Jedi rededicated themselves to peacekeeping, foreswearing their warrior days against the Sith.
>>
>>79037936
>>79038030
Vader thinks Obi-Wan was there to kill him and he drew his lightsaber first then cut him to pieces.

20+ years later how does that change into him remembering Obi-wan saying things like "I feel the good in you, the conflict." and acting like Luke?
>>
>>79038016
Seems it's mostly a practical thing, too, and a clever one. Showing Jedi wearing face concealing masks means they can show a large number of different potential characters without having to design and animate individuals. It's basically Jedi version of Clone or Stormtroopers.

Seeing how poorly they designed Yoda...I really hope that Yoda is somehow a placeholder but it probably isn't.

I wonder why Luke seems surprised when Vader orders the search for Luke's companions. Surely he knew that his bluff about being alone wouldn't be believed. Was it because Vader asked that they be brought before him rather than summarily executed?

Might not even be what Vader said but maybe something Luke felt. When he said he sensed the conflict in his father, maybe this was one of those times if he sensed Vader's reluctance towards wholesale slaughter. It's possible, at least. Vader does seem changed after ESB. He doesn't murder Piett or even threaten him after the latter swore the Falcon was disabled. He went very easy on the dude overseeing the Death Star's construction, using the Emperor as a threat over any threats of his own.

I'm not sure if it is the "most" emotional scene in Star Wars, but I certainly think Han's death scene is the best emotional scene in the franchise. Many characters have been killed off in Star Wars and killing off the "mentor character" in the first part of a trilogy is like a tradition, but Han Solo was one of the most beloved characters in Star Wars and now we saw him being killed by his own son. The scene had probably the best acting in all of Star Wars, the cinematography and the subtlety were amazing and Kylo's "Thank you" was just the perfect icing on the cake. This scene will certainly become iconic and Kylo's deed will haunt him for the rest of his life, no matter what's going to happen to him in the future.

Other than that, I'd say the burning homestead in ANH, "I am your father", Luke almost killing Vader in ROTJ and the funeral pyre on Endor were also very emotional scenes. Then there are Obi Wan's "You were my brother" on Mustafar and Fives's death, if we want to include prequel content too.

It's been talked about before, at some excessive length. Sadly a lot of the archives of these threads seem to have been lost when the old archive shat its pants. I seem to recall the old archiver saying he'd lost months worth of threads even with backups.

Anyway some of the highlights I recall is that they wouldn't have sent Kanan or Ezra or especially Ahsoka anywhere near Endor. Even Luke was risky as he said when he was sure he and Vader were sensing each other. There's no reason the Ghost couldn't have participated in the later space battle, just off camera, or since it's such a big galaxy with so many imperial targets they could have had other business.

My personal favorite Bad End scenario is that the Rebels actually do survive to the OT. They follow through a separate mission to save the children of the Force from the Empire and train them in secret for the time when Luke can defeat Vader and the Emperor. They set up a new secret temple in the one place where it can be protected by their greatest supporter ... Bail Antilles and Alderaan. Just a few extra voices crying out in terror and suddenly silenced.

But even if they do survive, say the above scenario happens only they are on a more remote location, maybe another ancient, forgotten temple, they'd still get Bad Ended by Kylo Ren.

Pottery, irony, whatever.

>Surely he knew that his bluff about being alone wouldn't be believed. Was it because Vader asked that they be brought before him rather than summarily executed?

No, it's rooted in the previous movie and the Emperor's comment upon his arrival at the Death Star II:

"And now I sense you wish to continue your search for young Skywalker."

From there on, much of Vader and Palpatine's dialogue revolves around whether or not Luke will come to them. Luke senses Vader aboard the Executor upon their arrival on Endor, saying that he was endangering the mission and shouldn't have come. As long as he stayed on Endor, he was endangering the group and the mission. Luke went to Vader knowing that Vader was only really there for him. Vader's saying to bring the rest of Luke's friends to him was obviously passing Luke's bluff, but it was also returning the Empire to its mission onworld. A Rebel strike team had penetrated the shield and landed on Endor and were still unaccounted for. They were a risk so long as they were free to roam

I think VII's soundtrack suffered a bit from the different orchestra, but it was still very good. I didn't like it when I watched the movie for the first time, but now I think at least Rey's and Kylo's theme are worthy additions the the rest of the saga score.
Kylo's theme gives off some fallen angel vibes which I think is perfect for a conflicted villain and a dark Jedi.

VII's soundtrack is MUCH better on repeat viewings. I was surprised how much more impressive it sounded after being initially underwhelmed too. The main problem is that it doesn't have any truly unique, instantly catchy themes like the prequels had, apart from Rey and Kylo's themes, of course. It complements the movie well, but it just didn't have that edge to put it over to greatness.

The whole duel sequence or the energy fields/generator pit duels at the end? If the former, I feel Duel of the Fates contributes a critical piece to the whole there. Without it, the duel just wouldn't work as well. Arresting still, but you'll always feel as if something is missing. George was perhaps the perfect collaborator when it concerned John Williams.

The silent generator pit sequence was perfect, though, just with that ghostly ambiance.

You say that but you have no idea. Wait for the Filoni cartoon set in the TFA era where Lando discovers his "brother" on a junk world locked in a cyborg exoskeleton and takes him back to Leia so she can return his sanity. Then together they decide to rule the galaxy as Smuggler and Gambler.

Anyone who thinks Ahsoka will die in Rebels better prepare their anus for maximum firepower when Darth Felon'i and his dark cowboy hat give us a new cartoon set after the fall of Luke's order that has old Master Tano leading a scrappy group of surviving padawans against the naughty First Order.

After all, there were people who swore she had to die in TCWs since she didn't show up in Episode III. Gird your colon, you're going to feel like the sarlacc has had it's way with you for a thousand years when Filoni is done with you.

Because it's the easiest and frankly cheapest way to drag Obi-Wan into Rebels. Maybe even Luke too if Maul senses that the boy is somehow important to Kenobi. As long as Luke doesn't know who rescued him exactly (something that happened in the comics) they're fine.

Of course there is nothing to suggest Luke and Obi-Wan never met before ANH. In fact Luke recognizes him. Maybe from the stories, maybe he actually saw him. As long as the acquaintance isn't too deep and certainly no training.

It's still debatable. Dooku had only been using the dark side for ten or so years, and Kylo probably less than that. And there's always the theory that Sheev's face had already been degrading, he was just using some force trick to hold it together (which is why the lightning didn't melt Luke's face). And he would've likely taught Dooku that trick.

There are other characters like Talzin that are a little more sketchy, but if Snoke was using the dark side during the Clone Wars, then that's a good 50 years of evil. I can buy that rotting your flesh over such a long period a lot more than Bioware's "I kicked a puppy, now my face has instant-villain-herpes."

Are you retarded? its common knowledge that Luke knew Ben his whole life. Obi Wan was there to watch over him and with Luke always going off on his own on Tatooine, im sure he met with Ben and heard stories plenty of times

The difference is that Aksoka's death in TCW would've basically come out of nowhere. She would've died because of order 66, not because her personal arc would've required her to die.
Now they're building up her death scene as the final conclusion to her character arc similar to what Abrams did with Han Solo in VII. It's her destiny to confront her old master and we all know how this is likely going to end.

Not sure about some of the ideas people have regarding the Rebels cast or any surviving Jedi in the OT era. Does Leia knowing of other Jedi matter? Not really, she knew about Obi-Wan after all. That was the reason she went to Tatooine.

As far as the comics are concerned they won't interfere with the ongoing cartoon, so you'll never really have any more than vague references at best. Aftermath mentioning that Wedge was recruited into the Alliance by Fulcrum, for instance. Or probably just a rebel group since the Alliance as a collective organization doesn't even exist yet in Rebels.

Meanwhile Obi-Wan and Yoda won't mention any other Jedi to Luke because they aren't part of his path. Luke is supposed to allow for the Return of the Jedi after he faces Vader alone. Even they weren't going to help Luke in his last trial. In the latest comic Obi-Wan even used his ghost whispering to Luke prior to ESB to tell him that it was too soon for him to be dicking around in ancient Jedi Temples. Ghost Obi-Wan and Yoda (and technically Qui-Gon) are all on their own time table as their own part in Luke's destiny. Luke isn't mean to become some kind of proxy Jedi General and his training is meant to come at very certain times.

And frankly even in Rebels it's clear that neither Kanan nor Ezra expect Ahsoka to do more than be an ally. Rex stepped in on the boy's training, but Ahsoka is leaving them to their own devices - for now.

If there are ever any interactions during the OT between Luke and the Rebels we'll probably never know, and we certainly won't know until Filoni is ready to tell us. And Filoni barely says any secrets, not even to those people working with him. Just ask Freddie Prinze.

Well it's clear you've never read the comics or even watched ANH. Luke knows OF Ben, we don't know that the know each other and Ben didn't even share any secrets of Luke's past until after the sand people attack. In the comics he rescues Luke after the boy refuses to put up with thugs sent by Jabba to collect "water tithes" and Luke doesn't know who saved him. Later on we're supposed to get more insights from Kenobi's journal that details why Uncle Owen won't let Luke be trained and refuses to even let the two interact. Owen doesn't want Luke anywhere near Kenobi.

Obi-Wan was Luke's secret guardian his entire life and did things for Luke that are only being discovered now after Ben is dead. Luke, however, is more pissed that the journals don't share any Jedi secrets or training.

>>

Filoni expressed possibilities, anon. He does not share his secrets, however. Take nothing for granted.

The largest thing protecting the Rebels is that they are on DisneyXD where things can't get too violent.

They won't do a kid's show with a Dark Side ending as canon.

That's not how it works. The Jedi ones do die. Hera, Sabine, Zeb, and Chopper could very well live and it would contradict nothing. But Ahsoka, Kanan, and Ezra will not. Yoda knows of Kanan and Ezra, he would not say what he says to Luke if they yet lived. Not would Leia call Obi-Wan her only hope. It's not complicated and there's only one way about it.
>>
>>79040198

>Yoda knows of Kanan and Ezra, he would not say what he says to Luke if they yet lived.
Yoda tells Luke what he fells Luke needs to know. He didn't tell Luke about his sister or father right away either.

Put it this way, Yoda knowing about Ezra and that the boy has his own problems actually makes it unlikely Yoda will throw him anywhere near Luke's destiny. Luke had enough shit going on and one helluva challenge in his future that ultimately he had to face alone. Remember that there was at least one other Jedi when Luke faced Vader in ESB, Yoda himself, but Yoda stayed out of it and barely anybody questioned a much more seasoned and powerful Jedi Master is staying out of things.

There is no reason for their paths to converge. As for Obi-Wan and Leia, her dad sent her after a high level member of the old Jedi Council during what they knew was their darkest hour against the Death Star. He easily trumps Ahsoka, Kanan, and Ezra in terms of providing hope against such a trial.

As it turned out there was an even greater New Hope that neither Leia nor Bail knew about who saved the day.
>>
>>79039917

I figured it was because Kenan had a more complete training than Ahsoka and as such, it would end with him teaching her if she started talking Anakin philosophy out of her ass.

That's not how it will go and you know it. They are weak as fuck, but that's beside the point. By the time ANH begins, it will be 5 or so years later, which means they wouldn't necessarily be weak anymore and very experienced with rescue missions in Imperial ships I might add. Which means they're dead.

>>79040295
Ahsoka has more complete training than Kanan. She was Anakin Skywalker's own padawan through much of the Clone Wars. Kanan got a crash course at the very end, then stopped using his Jedi powers for years as he had to abandon what he was as Caleb and truly become Kanan.

Ahsoka, however, has expressed that she feels that he is more Jedi than she is at the moment. Whether this is in terms of old rules, since last we know she was kicked out of the Order, or something to do with the separate path she is on. Who knows. Filoni works in mysterious ways.

No. Stop grasping at straws. You're being more autistic than bible thumpers trying to turn what's written in the bible into "interpretation" when there's no room for it. Yoda told Luke the truth. He didn't need to know about his father and sister, it was dangerous knowledge, but there was no lie in telling him that he was the last Jedi.

>>79040333

No, they don't breath in space, anon. We've seen several on camera asphyxiations, even clone/stormtroopers who have backup oxygen takes for ~twenty minutes are still ultimately vulnerable to vacuum. The Stormtroopers even have their own space equipment for duty outside of ships/space stations.

The clones didn't seem to care when Anakin and Ahsoka got them killed by the dozen. I doubt the rebels give a fuck when Ahsoka sends a hundred of them to die wherever.

Most every episode of TCW that had Jedi outside of Anakin and Ahsoka went over jedi philosophy to some extent. The genosis arch with Barris and Luminara, the episode with Sinube, the arch with Aayla, the Krell episodes, Any time Plo shared screen time with Ahsoka and many of Obi-Wan's appearances.

The fact that most of the series is the retard show: starring lightsabers, anakin, ahsoka and a bunch of jobbers might have fucked with your perception of things.

Didn't the old EU have Maul going after young Luke? Or was that someone else?

Maybe. Shattered Empire showed that Naboo was completely demilitarized by the Empire, though, so I can't imagine they would ever be protected by anything other than standard TIE fighters and other Imperial ships, which forbid unique ornamentation or paint jobs by regulations.

Of course he missed the old stash of Naboo fighters left over from The Phantom Menace which still manage to kick TIE Fighter ass.

My theory is Snoke is strong enough with the dark side that he is capable of a superpowered version of force heal, and can survive wounds that should kill him 10 times over including powerful explosions and fires. I'm waiting for the heroes to fight him and gawk when someone runs a lightsaber through him to no effect.
>>
>>79041317
I get the impression that it's meant to be like he's basically this ancient, rotting corpse yet somehow still alive. Like the dark side is all that's keeping him from death, similar to Darth Sion. His skin is icy white like the color of a dead person's after their blood drains away.

Uprising would've been amazing if it had been a true Diablo style PC game. It is hampered by extreme repetition, no variety, and all the other cancerous sins of a mobile game and as a result isn't fun to play because the grind is too absurd and the gameplay too simple. It's motivated by greed, not the desire to be a good game, and it shows. Galaxy of Heroes is better because it is a mobile game that isn't pretending to be more and is more respectful of the player's time.

It's surprising how hopefully the TCWs ended considering it was about to enter Episode III. The series finale on CN wasn't planned as the series ending until the Disney sale but however bittersweet it ended with Ahsoka leaving, walking down the stairs in nearly the same shot that Anakin would later walk up them during Operation Knightfall. As Ahsoka left the sky was apparently late evening, showing that she left before "nightfall".

The actual ending they managed in season 6 on Netflix somehow ended on an even more hopeful note and reiteration that through the coming darkness they must never lose hope. It took over twenty years for that hope to present itself but it still happened.

Vader is the endgame for doing the achievements, I play it on my lunch at work and get most of my shit done. I bought 2,800 shards when Kylo Ren was being touted big, and I got a Resistance Pilot and character shards, I was fucking fuming.

Galactic War is the dream when you have enough characters, you can just auto every match and complete them all in about 10 minutes and get ~400K a day.

What I found interesting about Snoke is that he acts kinda like a father figure to Kylo and Hux. Sheev has always been an asshole to his apprentices and servants, but the First Order leadership looks almost like a dark side family.

>Are inquisitors Sith too?
To be fair, the inquisitors aren't trained as sith. Ahsoka and Kanan were trained as Jedi. They just didn't finish. But the inquisitors know shit about the sith religion, while Ahsoka and Kanan know a lot of jedi teachings. As such they are incredibly dangerous to Sheev and Vader.

Obi-Wan and Yoda, powerful jedi masters, survived as long as they did by disappearing. Ahsoka had disappeared too, but now, she, Kanan, and Ezra are operating out in the open and the hammer is coming down.

A better counter example would be Maul, who was actually trained as a sith. And who yes, I fully expect to die regardless of any "but I'm not a sith anymore" shenanigans as the prophecy must be fulfilled.

Yeah, shit fucking sucks that Kathleen Kennedy, Carrie Fisher, and Disney have gone full feminazi and purged that outfit from all merchandising and condemned it as being worse than Hitler or some shit.

I wonder if one of the reasons Rey is so good with the Falcon is because it's considered so old. A lot of their tech has upgraded after the Empire and the newest ball droids don't even have attached heads, it's all wireless with completely sealed bodies to avoid dust and particulates gumming up their inner workings. For instance when the Falcon loses power briefly Rey starts to tell him how to fix it and then he suddenly seems to remember it himself. Something between old age and not having been around the Falcon for a long time.

That and, let's be perfectly honest, Han and Chewie's track record with repairing the Falcon was never all that great. They even played it for laughs several times in ESB with tools falling on Han's head and Han stealing Threepio's repair instructions pretending they were obvious all along.

One of the things I liked in TFA was Old Han's kinder side was standing out. OT Han could dismiss others, Luke as a farm boy, Leia as a snobbish princess. Instead when Rey shows her relative ignorance/naiveté over how green worlds can be he doesn't belittle her. He also gives Finn some sound advice on women. He's much less prickly or standoffish (at least after his initial intent to just jettison the two in a pod) and just generally fatherly, but in a wounded sense that becomes clear.

It's a nice touch and development of his character.

According to Pablo the cosmic Force is on siesta until Finn and Rey wake it up. Qui-Gon acts like the living Force is the moment so does this mean that the ability of even Snoke and Ren to sense the past and future are stunted? Even owning Vader's helmet it may not be possible for him to sense anything of what Vader really was.

Also not sure what the cosmic Force being asleep means for the ghosts.

It's possible. The dynamic of the Cosmic and Living Force intrigue me greatly, but it turns out the more we find out about it, the more questions seem to open up. Very interesting.

>Also not sure what the cosmic Force being asleep means for the ghosts.
Force Ghosts are as they are because they exist in the Living Force. They manage to retain their identities after death by rejecting the collective oblivion of the Cosmic Force in favor of being a part of the Living Force and thus on the living plane. Unfortunately, the relationship of the Living and Cosmic Force seems to be one of symbiosis:

>All that surrounds us is the foundation of life, the birthplace of what your science calls midi-chlorians, the foundation of what connects the Living Force and the Cosmic Force. When a living thing dies, all is removed. Life passes from the Living Force into the Cosmic Force and becomes one with it. One powers the other. One is renewed by the other.

So the Cosmic Force powers the Living Force, which in turn renews the Cosmic Force. The Jedi are taught to use the Living Force, whereas the Sith and any other Dark Side dedicants fuck with that balance by exploiting the Dark Side of the Living Force, which while part of the Force, is not the true nature of the Force, which exempts it from the natural cycle. With the Jedi [still] gone, the Dark Side remains the dominant Force in the galaxy, albeit at a much weaker scale compared to when the Sith ruled the galaxy. Regardless, because the Living Force is not in use, the more fantastic phenomena that is usually granted by its usage (Force Ghosts, looking into the past and future), are stunted. You can still use the powers, sense people's presence, and your consciousness can still pass into the Cosmic Force, but you shouldn't expect to become part of the great equation in the moving of someone's destiny any time soon. It's a guess.

God, this is exactly what I've been hoping for when it comes to the Force, I'm so tingly

I don't think Carrie hates it actually, she may have said some things in the past but keep in mind she's bipolar and has gone back forth about allot of things in her comments over the years.

As for the scene I don't think it was bad honestly. It made sense in the context of the movie and she rescues herself for gods sake, the OT never made Leia out to be helpless.

That said I can understand Disney not wanting to sell that as a toy to kids but to condemn that part of the movie is beyond retarded. It was not sexist at all.

I agree. I saw TFA for the second time last night, you hit the nail on the head.

>Rey is almost certainly lukes kid, too much hinting and implications going for it
>Snoke's music isn't the same as the opera scene music from episode 3, there's no deep voiced background vocals, and the tone is a bit different. He also has very thin fuzzy patches of hair, ruling out him being a muun
Everything else felt better this time around. Less feelings of "oh this is stolen from x-scene from x-movie", but maybe that just comes with multiple viewings. Rey didn't feel too op, at least not for a Star Wars protagonist.
>>
>>79043860
Seems largely intimidation, yeah. Maybe also for some self-psychological ploy, a distancing of yourself and your emotions from your actions. Dooku and Sheev were very much about making their real face into a mask. Both were the diplomatic, urbane old men of their respective sides but total monsters beneath the surface.

Maul is an unknown, really, because we don't really know what the plans for him were in the Clone Wars although he knew about them as far back as TPM when he "died". The old TCW threads had some speculation that he would never have been the public face of the CIS as Dooku was and could be. Maul's role was played out by himself when he made his criminal empire. He would rule from the shadows using weak minded and corruptible proxies. Frankly it fits. It's just hard to imagine Darth Maul's face as being accepted as the face of freedom from Republic oppression and corruption. Possible, I guess. Dooku was certainly a good second replacement.

>>
>>79043992
First of all, Caedus should have won. Second, Jaina only became a shit character because of Mary Sue syndrome that cranked up to 11 out of nowhere mostly because of Karen Traviss but then continued with other writers who wildly differed in their writing and characterization of her. Just look at the Fate of the Jedi series. She's like a completely different character every other book and entirely unlikable throughout. It's unintentionally bipolar as fuck.

Maybe dressing nice for a high class location in the galaxy. Something slinky but not as revealing as a slave bikini.

Everyone all dressed up nice and getting a sense of the atmosphere of rich leisure in the setting before the blasters all draw and sabers come out.

Seems more like the ghosts are cosmic Force. They become one with the Force just as everyone else but they can retain their sentience. This seems to be why they are outside of the bounds of normal time and space. Qui-Gon existed where they were the past and future were all the same. He also showed that they can manipulate the real world, as he levitated objects next to Yoda, but they are still limited in how much they can interfere. They seem bound, whether by actual limitations or just by principals, from interfering too much or in too hands-on ways. They're like the will of the Force itself, they can aid events but people still have free will. Events must be decided by the living even if the dead can offer guidance. The Force can call to Rey in Maz's castle but she's free to say, "Augh, fuck that, I'm going back to my lice filled hovel on Jakku!"

As for the living and cosmic, Jedi and Sith use both, and something the younger ones struggle in finding a balance between them. You have to remain mindful of the living, the now, and through it connect with people and events surrounding you, but the cosmic tends to be more spiritual since it is beyond the material universe. It's how they can sense the future and past, seems to be where their visions come from as opposed to their "spider sense" for attacks or when major shit happens like Alderaan exploding which comes through the living Force.

Not 100% sure, of course. It's all pretty wild. Plus I don't think anyone can say whether the ghosts, even if part of the cosmic, were limited when the cosmic went dormant since they have wills of their own. At the very least Obi-Wan definitely spoke to Rey in her vision so they are definitely still active. Somewhat.

>>79044140
Lost Stars has one where Leia shows up for a guest appearance.
There's also a high class thing in Dark Disciple for Dooku that Ventress and Vos crash.
>>
>>79043969
Hell Leia's first act after being rescued on the Death Star was to rescue her rescuers. Similarly Rey freed herself but there is no indication that she could have found a ship to get off Starkiller Base, especially when Ren hunting her. She got lucky that Han's presence suddenly distracted him.

I think Sheev always planned to replace Maul or at least he never intended him for any public position.

Either Sheev would have killed Maul himself for Dooku or he would have kept them both in different roles.

You rock, anon. Good to see we can still have serious discussions that don't turn into shit slinging.

I wonder how ghosts even work. Thinking about it thanks to the OT fans took them for granted but then it turns out they're still one of the biggest mysteries in Star Wars and the Force. Even season six didn't really go into details about the actual process leaving it offscreen for qui-gon's training of Yoda. I think all we know is the Sith can't do it because they're too obsessed with the material world, and one of the major tricks to doing it is knowing yourself, your true self, and then letting go.

People like to live in home, even if that hope turns out to be a lie.

I meant to say this a week ago when I finished rewatching TCWs season 6. Can't say what they'll do now Lucas is gone but the heavy suggestion is that Sidious was outright lying to Anakin. Suddenly Sidious talks about the secrets to saving anyone you care about, the one thing beyond all others that can be used to seduce Anakin? And Sidious kills his master without bothering to learn the secret for himself? In fact Sidious goes from telling Anakin he is the only one who could give Anakin the power to save Padme but when Anakin is corrupted suddenly he says, "We'll find the secret together."

Curious (or not considering poetry is always involved) this very much mirrors Sidious' attempt to break or corrupt Yoda in the very last episode of TCWs. Appearing as Sifo-Dyas he claims he alone can tell Yoda the true identity of the Sith Master, but also that the Sith Master knows the secret Yoda is seeking. Truth is Sidious doesn't know shit about what Yoda is doing on Moraband, he just knows Yoda must be searching for something. Sidious/Sifo-Dyas uses the same, "Join me and together we'll know the secret."

It was all a lie. The Sith can't learn the secret to life after death because the only shown method is beyond them.

He claims that since Kanan and Ahsoka were only Padawan learners they dont count as Jedi and the only "real" Jedi were Knights and Masters.
We haven't argued this hard over a fictional thing since Mass Effect and whether synthetic sentience counts as a soul.
>>
>>79045010

To paraphrase Mr. Plinkett, the main problem was that they made the fights more about the lightsabers than the characters fighting. The stylish combat is cool and all but with a lack of emotional involvement they get boring fast.
>>
>>79045010
Eh, the fights in the PT aren't nearly the worst things about them. They just don't manage to justify all the other horrible things in the movies. If he likes them, it's totally cool. If he likes the characters, dialogue, and plot, I'm sorry, but your father may have shit taste.
>>
>>79043960
So does this mean that Force Ghosts are 'inactive' during TFA?
>>
>>79045089
Kanan is most certainly a Jedi.

Ezra and Ahsoka are in a very greyzone, but I'm sure we'll touch upon that soon enough.

I've got a feeling Ezra is going to be done with the Force Business when Rebels comes to a close.
>>
>>79045089
Remember that when Ahsoka was a padawan, she said she was a Jedi and people called her a Jedi. She was just a student. However, she did -leave- the order, so no, she is not a Jedi.

Kanan was a Jedi, however. And Ezra is his padawan. But now the Jedi Order itself is gone, so it would likely be more appropriate to call them Jedi-in-Exile.
>>
>>79045057

They come across more as a bunch of dancers doing choreography than an actual fight.
>>
>>79045099
He missed that one, then. The lightsabers are an extension of their body. It's the point at which their argument moved beyond mere words to actually trying to kill each other. It was a fight with all their skill, with everything they had, like their attempts to Force push each other that ended up throwing the both across the room. The saber was no less a part of Anakin than his own cyborg hand when he was trying to strangle his best friend and brother.

Whether it worked or not, that's up to the individual, but the intent wasn't even subtle.

This lady explains that, even if you do see the fights as over exaggerated, that's not necessarily a bad thing, it doesn't detract from the artistic merit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaW72ZchK6M

Also, screw it, I like the prequel fights, especially the ones in TPM and RotS. Seeing Jedi in their prime was cool.
>>
>>79044931
No, it's not a lie. It's a lesson. Palpatine told Anakin everything he needed to know about the dark side and he instead heard only the part he wanted about keeping people alive. The power was real, Palpatine may even have known some of it, but it's an ironic story about a man who was so obsessed with finding ways to prolong his life that he failed to see the real danger right underneath his nose. And no amount of power to stay alive past your natural life's length can protect you from a Lightsaber to the back. There's also a strong implication that Anakin was created using that very same power, so it's definitely not a trick. The secret is in the telling. And in that same way, Plagueis IS dead and is not Snoke because it is counter to the point of that story.
>>
>>79045248
>Seeing Jedi in their prime was cool.
This, and this is why I can't wait for the invevitable KOTOR films. 100s of Jedi and Sith fighting each other is gonna look so fucking cool

Not to mention Raktlata Prime on that TFA Galaxy map and Taris showing up in Aftermath. Whatever is happening I think Disney is priming us for either a KOTOR remake or a KOTOR movie adaptation. The Lucas story group has yet to dive into tales of the ancient old Republic and the way I see it is KOTOR, with its big fanfare, is a perfect place to start exploring that era in the nucanon.

Yeah, the way I see it Ezra could probably get away with giving up the Jedi business and live a normal life, but for Ahsoka and Kanan who were raised and trained as Jedi they still count as Jedi even if he's in exile and she had left the order before hand.
Basically if it follows the Jedi philosophy like a Jedi, swings a lightsaber like a Jedi, uses the force like a Jedi, fights for good and just cause like a Jedi, then its clearly a Jedi even if it didn't pass trials.

>and Taris showing up in Aftermath
Taris still exists? I thought that got completely abandoned from restoration after what Malak did to it
>>
>>79045330

I hope so, Kotor really needs it. As good as the games were, they really fucked up the aesthetic by just making it the Prequels but 4000 years earlier.
>>
>>79045330
Also, considering that KOTOR shit has shown up in cross media content (Rebels, TFA, Aftermath) it seems this is a general disney push and not just guerilla war by Kotor fans working on Disney projects to get stuff into canon.
>>
>>79045393
Taris exists, the events of KotOR do not. It was never destroyed.
>>
>>79045261
I don't think there was ever an implication, only a line people connected and turned into a theory they've refused to let go ever since that Snoke could create life with the Force.

There are far stronger implications, rooted in the Prophecy of Balance itself, that it was never the Sith but the Force itself that created Anakin. Given what happens this will always make more sense than Plagueis fucking with his chemistry set and suddenly BOOM a random chick on Tatooine is knocked up in an experiment that ends up boomeranging back and taking out Sidious and the Sith.

Also Sidious outright said that Plagueis could save others, just not himself. Given Sidious never showed this power he either, a. was lying or b.was actually stupid enough to kill his master before learning these secrets.

Then there is the fact that twenty+ years later the only interest/obsession we see Sheev use is his need to solidify his own power. He never makes one overt mention of any life extension research either before he corrupted Anakin or afterward. That's a pretty damn major implication right there.

Something did happen to it though, it's just not been revealed yet. From the wook

Although the city ultimately maintained its status as a major urban world, many of its population resorted to living in makeshift homes, many of which were old shipping containers."

>>79045393
Malak leveled the city but the planet wasn't blown up like Alderaan or something. 3000 years later it could have been nice rebuilt.

We don't know for sure, though. It is only mentioned in passing and no one goes on its surface in the book.

Also, you may be getting Taris mixed up with Telos IV which has never been mentioned in any new Canon materials yet.

Sorry, but you simply missed the point of that whole scene and are just making things up. It's not that complicated, Palpatine didn't make up any of it. The ability that he spoke of is simply not something that can be done easily or quickly, it is likely a ritual similar to what he does in TCW to attack Yoda from across the galaxy. You couldn't use it in a fight to keep yourself from dying because it's not like a Force push or something. It is also very visually telling that he is in fact older than he should naturally be by RotJ. He looks like he's well over 100 years old. It's going over your head if you think that's coincidence.

You're reading into the scene exactly what you want to see and basically succumbing to Sidious' lies just like Anakin did. So good job? You'll make a fine Junior Sith Apprentice.
Sith are known for lies and manipulation. Even their truth telling is manipulation. Just look at Dooku. He tells the Jedi what he knows they won't believe just to rub it in their face.

Also you are contradicting yourself. If Sidious looks so ancient twenty years after the Clone Wars does that in any way suggest that he has the secret to extending life after death or that he's decaying? Because looking over 100 years old by ROTJ hardly lends itself as evidence, and in fact provides a solid counterpoint.

In no way does that contradict it. It's not to make yourself look younger, it's to stay alive well past the point at which you'd naturally die of old age.

You further missed the point because Sidious specifically says he could keep others from dying and even points out the irony that he couldn't prevent his own death. Nothing there implies Plagueis knew how to extend his own life, the only thing we know (if we take Sidious's words as fact) is that Plagueis could cheat death within others.
>>
>>79046015
The way I always saw it, Plagueis DID have a way of cheating death but not for himself, which is why Sidious saw no value in that power and never sought to learn it. In Sidious's mind that power is useful only if he can grant himself immortality, and being able to extend the lives of other people or prevent their deaths is useless to him because he has nobody he needs to keep alive, everyone is expendable and replaceable to him.
>>
>>79046015
>Plagueis could cheat death within others.
Doesn't sound like a very Sith thing to do, unless they're trying to create some form of unkillable army of Force mutated slaves. But frankly droid armies are probably still easier. The Nightsisters could make zombies out of corpses but it's never made clear this in anyway is the actual awakening of the souls of their dead sisters and not outright making Force puppets form dead bodies. They also didn't save the nightsisters from death. I think in the episode (been awhile since I saw it) the zombies were considered a minor annoyance compared to the pressing need for Grievous to hunt down the head of the Nightsisters who was using the Force to attack him. In that case the zombies unfortunately provided the trail for Grievous to find the source.

I think Plagueis probably did want to use it on himself, but he either couldn't figure out how to do that or there's something in the death cheat trick that makes it impossible to use on oneself.
>>
>>79046094
>The way I always saw it, Plagueis DID have a way of cheating death but not for himself, which is why Sidious saw no value in that power and never sought to learn it.
That doesn't really make much sense, though. That sounds like a step in the right direction, and could even be manipulated to your benefit if you could somehow empower someone else to keep YOU alive using that power even if you can't use it on yourself. Someone you've manipulated or seduced into obsessing over you being immortal or imagine some standard horrific experiment where they hook a Force user up to a machine that forces them to use their powers to preserve your life. That sounds like something the Sith would do.

At the very least if it were true it would mean that Plagueis was close to an answer. However Sidious then kills him and proceeds, despite telling Anakin that it's their #1 goal, to do absolutely nothing about. Not in the movies or the comics or the novels. In fact, it's telling that this plot point is dropped once Anakin is turned into Vader. Because Vader has already lost everyone he would have cared to save, thus the lie and manipulation was no longer needed. All that Vader had left was dominating the galaxy and bending it to his will, the way he felt it should have been done all the way back in AOTCs.

This whole "save someone from death" is a plot point that only shows up in Episode III while being conveniently the only thing that could convince Anakin to betray his friends and Order, and it's dropped after Episode III.

Qui-Gon said there are no coincidences with the Force, but at the same time there is nothing that ever suggested the secret was real. Sheev even contradicts himself, telling Anakin that he has the power to save the one Anakin loves to make him attack Windu and then afterward showing he doesn't actually have that power and that it's a secret they can find together. It was just a way to seduce Anakin and a lever to make him obey Sheev's will. When it's no longer needed anymore the entire plot point is dropped.
>>
>>79046221
The Tarkin novel explicitly says that Sheev is obsessed with finding that secret, which is why he leaves Mas Amedda and the others to actually manage the Empire so he can spend all of his time trying to figure out how to become immortal.

In what? The only time it may have come into play with Doctor Cylo's memory imprint technology on duplicate bodies neither Sidious nor Vader show any interest in the technology for live preservation. Hell, making a copy of themselves after the die probably wouldn't be of any interest to Sheev because it would be the copy that survives, not his true self. In the EU it was his own "soul" inhabiting clone bodies, but that isn't how Cylo's technology works.

>>79046291
True, its value is mostly in using it as bait for Anakin, but part of Sidious's MO is using half-truths and not always blatantly lying. That's why I theorized that Plagueis may have come up with something and Sidious might be somewhat truthful about it. This is a way of reconciling the idea that Plagueis learned something, but then Sidious didn't also learn it from him. If he saw no value in the technique, he wouldn't give a damn, but the knowledge that such a thing was possible ended up proving useful in luring his golden boy to his side.

As far as why it's dropped after Episode 3 (which is only partially true since the novels have shown Sidious still trying to figure out how to cheat death, at least for himself), it's a bit of a moot point since after Padme dies, Anakin loses interest in figuring out how to stop others from dying because he now has nobody he'd want to use that power on anyway.

Yeah, not ok with that. It's bad enough that Maul cheated an already definitive death, but if any more characters come back from the dead I'm not having it. Star Wars shouldn't be like a cape comic where death means nothing. It also encourages autists to latch onto theories like "Snoke is Plagueis" despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
>>
>>79046451
Sidious does seem to enjoy using half-truths and obfuscation. When he pretended to be Sifo-Dyas on Moraband he presented Yoda with two lures, first that he knows the true identity of the Sith Lord (truth) and that the Sith Lord knows the secret of what Yoda seeks (false). He used both lures. The scene actually has a fair amount of pottery with Sheev trying to convert Anakin while under attack by Windu. Not 100%, of course, but both were shown as tortured/injured, supposedly weak until they revealed the truth of themselves.

No it doesn't. It does, however, explicitly say that he doesn't give two shits over Plagueis' obsession with "mere immortality".

In the least extreme interpretation of this passage Sidious just wants to dominate the entire galaxy and have everyone bend to his will. The ultimate expression of power over everyone and the ability to make them do whatever he wants. At it's most extreme he wants full blown reality warping powers, becoming a god instead of a mere dark wizard.
>>
>>79046763
His chin's a different shape too.
>>
>>79046720
A car accident ripped off his face. He was a nobody at the time so couldn't afford top-tier surgery. They took from his ear to rebuild his nose, sewed his face back on.

So they had a wampa rip up his face and dropped him into a bacta tank to cover for the damages.

>So they had a wampa rip up his face and dropped him into a bacta tank to cover for the damages.
As it turns out this wasn't actually what happened. He was always scripted to get attack, Mark needing surgery that could be explained by the attack was an amazing coincidence, and something that hadn't occurred to anyone on the crew until people came up with the theory years later.

If he had a way of extending life he wouldn't have needed cloning and body hopping, a process that was already becoming less sucessfull each time because the dark side was eating the clones faster and faster. He also wouldn't have had to play off his"disfigurement" either in rots.
>>
>>79046954
But Anon, the entire show is a Force vision. The final episode reveals it's all been one long daydream in the mind of a dying Caleb Dume, who is about to succumb to his wounds after being shot by clones.

Sheev was like 88 when he died. He just looked even worse because of his injuries from the fight with Windu.
>>
>>79046911
Reality warping may include that but he's not obsessed over completing Plagueis' work to the detriment of all else. It does, however, fit with the idea that he just wants absolute domination with no one able to challenge his will. His reason for making so many super weapons. During TCWs the one time we saw him experimenting on Force sensitive babies his interest had nothing to do with longevity or manipulating midi-chlorians and was actually about turning them into totally obedient slaves whose vision can peer into ever corner of the galaxy so his enemies will have no where to hide.

In essence all we ever see him doing is the standard Sith power grabs and his obsession is over achieving and maintaining his power. Immortality, to the extent others are claiming that Plagueis was ever really onto something, apparently do not bear out. He murdered his master and we've never heard of his immortality plans except they were brought up at just the right time to manipulate Anakin.
>>
>>79046158

In the EU they couldn't become force ghosts, just attach themselves to certain personal objects or holocrons and those were rare cases like Exar Kun.

Even at the height of the Sith they were looking for alternative methods like that zombie lotus shit from Red Harvest.
>>
>>79047192
In other words the Sith were more like liches, their souls bound to their phylacteries. Which is actually pretty cool, in a way, I'm certainly not opposed to it. Sadly Lucas seems to have wanted none of that, not even technologically or ritualistically obtained longevity.

Hey I've just got a question

>>79047243
>when was it when yoda and the jedi learned about the existence of the rule of 2?
We don't know. Probably some dumb Sith down the line got drunk and spilled the beans.

I think the idea is that they knew about Bane and probably a few other Sith that came after him, but thought they had finally gotten them.
>>
>>79047192
The closest we've come so far is Talzin. Might be able to blame Katie Lucas being allowed to do what she wants by her dad, but I can't prove that. Talzin's ability to become incorporeal and wraithlike, possess others and feed off their Living Force until she could manifest her physical body again is as close to cheating death as any Dark Sider we've seen. Nightsisters did all kinds of crazy stuff, though. Materializing matter (apparently), turning invisible, chain lightning with force field, raising undead armies, empowering "normies" with Force powers, creating cybernetic forms out junk (albeit droid parts), and, somehow, restored Darth Maul's sanity. This last one is possibly the power that saved his life at the cost of draining almost all of her powers. Some people consider that she used her powers all the way back in Phantom Menace to save him but was just waiting for the right chance to recover him, but there is no indication in TCWs that she was close to tapped out in her power.
>>
>>79047243
They knew about Bane and killed him. It's also very probable that Bane's decision to create the Rule of Two was while the Sith were betraying each other and close to extinction. This is what allowed the him to survive when the rest perished. The Jedi apparently still caught up to Bane and obviously felt his apprentice died with no chance to pass on the teachings of the Sith. They were obviously wrong.

Personally I always believed that her abilities were more in line with the same things we see from Sith alchemy and Sith sorcery. Yes, she's a Force user, but she's also tapping into other sources of power. Which... Probably makes her the smartest Force user out there. She had an incredible power, and said "Now what -else- can I use?"
>>
>>79047279
It's possible even when the Sith were still a larger force that they travelled in twos, Master and Apprentice. The Dark Side pottery to the Master and Padawan relationship. The pairs, then, fuck up other pairs and themselves in their pursuit of power. The Rule of Two just means there should only be one pair that exists at any one time instead of a bunch of them.

This seems probable, but is merely conjecture. It's based mostly on the fact that both sides as shown in the Prequels relied on Master/Apprentice teaching relationships to pass on knowledge and train new members. Plus imagine if with more than one sith pair. Bribing the apprentice of another group to kill his or her master, or planting false evidence against a Master's apprentice so they fight and thereby leave themselves weak and vulnerable. It would be the politics of the Sith we've seen to chaotic extreme.

The blu-ray DVDs are canon. The novelization can have details that are discarded/ignored/contradicted

Given that the Sith literally started out as Dark Side Jedi, it would make sense for them to have that kind of parallel.

>>79047456
>Is the TFA novelization considered canon?
Yes, but it's dubious, in that it's approved by the LSG, but even Pablo says that it's trumped by the movie in terms of Canon, despite there not really being tiers anymore. Adaptations are never the go-to if a contradiction occurs. Pablo's reasoning for this is, "millions will see a movie, thousands will read the book", so yeah, it's approved, but if future creators ignore all the stuff in the book, dont be surprised.

>Or the ones for the older movies, for that matter?
Nope. Except maybe the newer childrens adaptations of the OT, but again, they're second to the movies.

>About to catch up on TCW in the meantime...didn't care for the movie, but some of the GIFs/webms seem to support it getting better later, so I'll go for it.

True. The blood ritual magic Sidious used allowed him to directly invade Yoda's mind in an effort to destroy the Grand Master from the inside.

It's telling that Sidious never taught Dooku these ancient Sith arts, as Dooku seemed at a loss, and I can't see why he'd teach them to Vader.

Couple that with the fae lady Artoo and Threepio encountered. Her powers would have to be Force derived, even if it's a biological expression rather than something she was taught.

The Force does some weird shit that even the Jedi don't understand. Hell, ghosts were presented as something the Jedi believed were impossible but it turns out there is more in the Living and Cosmic Force than is dreamed of in their philosophy.
>>
>>79047611
If you want to get technical it gets bent, but not officially broken. If Dooku had appointed Ventress as an official Sith, then he'd be breaking it.

Basically it's a loophole.
>>
>>79047641
Same with Inquisitors. They're Junior Deputy Sith in that they work for the Sith and have some tricks, but they don't get any of the good stuff and don't get official Sith status so they don't count. Also they're all scrub-tier compared to the actual Sith.
>>
>>79047611
Grievous was as far from Sith as you could get. He wasn't Force Sensitive, and he only used lightsabers because of his hate for the Jedi - They were trophies.

And, well, we saw what happened with Palpatine thought Asajj was becoming too much like an Apprentice and no longer just an assassin.

Then further in the time line, we have the Inquisitors, who are pretty much the same as Asajj, but known to both Sith - I imagine there was a shadow battle between Palpatine and Vader over who commands their true loyalty.
>>
>>79047611
Which makes sense. They're always keen on making a spare in case the Master or Apprentice dies through accident or injury...or someone proves a superior candidate to either.

Seems ultimately that one of the tests of the Rule of Two is knowing when to replace the other half of the equation.

This also seems to be why the Inquisitors are taught only combat aspects of the Force, as well as the basic techniques for psychological attack, but lack the spiritual connection - thus making them a reduced threat to the Sith. Thus far the two times we've seen Inquisitors bested with no problem have been when the Jedi uses the spiritual aspect. Kanan expresses his calm and tells the Grand Inquisitor he'll show him the strength of the Force, and with a simple maneuver disarms his foe. Ahsoka put her blades down and sat in a meditative pose and used her calm to predict her opponents moves and turn them against the Seventh Sister with ease.

At most Inquisitors seem to have the anger into power bit. Their ability to use the Force as their guide is fairly limited, or at least very much seems to be.
>>
>>79047611
Well, a longer term for the rule would be "Rule of Two and a half", since Bane and Zannah, during the experimental phase of the rule, ran into some issues such as:
>you may have chosen the wrong apprentice
>your apprentice may not be strong enough to kill you and you've just wasted decades turning them into the perfect assassin. So now you're running out of time to train a new one.
>you may die of natural causes or from a Jedi or space monster or something before your apprentice gets the chance, thus cheating them out of the awesome EXP you can provide them.
>as soon as one Sith kills the other, they need a new apprentice to continue the chain.
As such, there's a margin of one or two darksiders that aren't quite yet true Sith that qualify as the "next in line" for apprenticeship as soon as either A) Apprentice kills Master and becomes new Master, needs new Apprentice. Or B) Master kills Apprentice, needs new Apprentice. Zannah took a chance with Set Harth to be the new apprentice after she killed Bane, while Bane took on Cognus as Zannah's replacement in case she failed. Palpatine was much better at this shuffle of apprentices, going from Maul, to Dooku, to Vader, to hopefully Luke in a matter of decades with not much stress while also taking over the galaxy and nearly exterminating the Jedi. So, despite all logic, the system worked decently well.

Okay, thanks. I'm debating whether or not to get it in my quest to consume all the new canon now that it's been condensed. It's interesting that it manages to be dubious without the tiers, but I can also see that considering how many people have to work on things.

And yeah, I don't even have terribly high standards, but the movie definitely felt more like a weak pilot, as I've heard a few people compare it to. I'll give it a go and form more informed opinions.

>Grievous was as far from Sith as you could get
He was trained by Dooku in their combat moves and knows the ways of the Force at least enough in how to combat them, what their weaknesses are. He's also trained in the psychological aspects of weakening foes first.

In other words he has some of the philosophy insofar as it makes him a better killer of the Jedi but none of the actual powers.

Wait, what's the significance of "There's always some truth in legends"
Is that a call back to something?

It's actually been surprisingly smooth (although it's been just 2 years, I'm sure they'll make mistakes eventually)

As for consuming all of Canon, it's not required. A mixed bag really. If you wanna' read it all, you'll probably have a good time, but you can skip non-important stuff.

If I was to suggest a "Essential Canon" list, it's probably the Movies, TCW, and the Main Star Wars comic. They seem to have the most important content regarding Canon so far.

Then I'd throw in the Vader Comic/Rebels as a follow up, and then everything else is optional reading.

But in terms of quality, I highly recommend Lost Stars, Lords of the Sith, and the Lando comic. Those are all, IMO, fantastic.

Where were you when KOTOR was re-canonized?

What's next? Teenage Kyle Katarn showing up?
>>
>>79047874
Yeah, as in lightsaber techniques. Grievous has no Force talent.
>>
>>79047816
>>79047874
He was trained to -fight Jedi-, not to be a Sith.
>>
>>79047874
Just raises the question of whether he knows what the hell the Sith even are or what the difference is. One of the reasons I'm glad they've largely ignored the "I hate Jedi because I don't" have powers" origin story because he'd hate the Jedi...while still being subservient to someone with Force powers.
>>
>>79047919
It's just telling the audience that they're not done picking stuff from the EU to be made canon, and that we will see more EU stuff canonized through Rebels.
>>
>>79047919
I think Yoda said something similar in TCW

>>79047925
We can only hope. Wouldn't he be in the Academy around this time? Maybe we already have.

Yoda says the same thing at the end of the Utapau arc, regarding the use of kyber crystals as WMDs in ancient times. Anakin tells him those stories are just old fairy tales, and Yoda counters with the "there's truth in legends" thing.

>>79047925
Kylo Katarn shows up in Rogue One. He leads the ground assault in finds a light saber presumably kept as a trophy by Vader or some Imperial big wig. Just as he ignites it to show his true power level he gets shot in the face by TK-1138.

No Jedi in Rogue One, after all.
>>
>>79047967
We know the quote, we're saying it doesn't support your claim that Grievous somehow counts as Sith.
>>
>>79047925
Nothing has been recanonized in whole.

If anything deserves it, and there is a benevolent force at work, Shadows of the Empire will get recanonized before anything else does as a whole.
>>
>>79047927
So was Ventress but Dooku took her training too far. Unless you think Grievous was intended as the secret Apprentice Dooku really wanted, then no, he wasn't trained to be a Sith. He would, however, be educated in techniques the Sith would use against Jedi. That's the point. Jedi aren't trained to kill other Jedi. The Sith, however, are.
>>
>>79048010
Oh. I wasn't trying to imply he was a sith.
I must've read >>79047890 out of context.
>>
>>79046581
Actually he goes to a dance in the Vader annual comic.

He kills people.
>>
>>79048010
Did anyone say he counts as Sith? I mean he's Sith aligned but it harkens back to the old debate on how much Grievous knew about the ultimate plot. Greivous knew, for instance, that Sidious was the true power behind Dooku but I don't think we've ever gotten more than that. Well, beyond the Chancellor himself giving Grievous' location up and sacrificing him when his usefulness was done.
>>
>>79048041
Dooku intended Ventress as an apprentice but got caught because he used her as his "assassin" too openly. He should have trained her to hide her teachings better.

Grevious was a blunt instrument. Ventress was his secret apprentice, which he tried to hide in plain sight. Turns out Palpatine pays attention to things that aren't in the shadows, too.
>>
>>79048122
Nevermind I found the post where someone said Dooku trained Grievous implying it was the same way as taking Ventress' training too far.
>>
>>79048207
Ventress was meant to be an assassin. The problem was Sheev could sense her power was disproportionate to their stated plans for her. Because he's Sheev. You don't peeve.

When watching TFA again, during Kylo Ren's first fight with Rey her shots seem to explode against his sword. It seems like he has a hard time deflecting shots. Could be the implication that Rey's pistol was powerful, which the Visual Dictionary states, however I wonder if maybe his cracked crystal and weird shaped blade might be ill-suited to deflections.

Did anyone else notice this? Might indicate why he has trained an ability to hold blaster shots instead of just using his sword. I know he wasn't trying to kill Rey in that scene but still his arms jerked back from her shots like he was struggling against them.
>>
>>79047921
Oh, I meant the novelization being that way. The smoothing out and more achievable goal of finishing it all is why I'd like to dive in.

If I like a series, I tend to look into it's spin-offs and whatnot--the only reason I hadn't already done so with Star Wars was because it used to have hundreds of books on top of everything else. Maybe it'll become that again, but I feel like I have time to be caught up now.

Cool on the info/recs though, I'll be looking forward to 'em!

Grievous could not perform any force power moves, so does this mean he is immune to force powers used against him like the space jews are (Toydarians)? Has there been any hints at Grievous having his own apprentice or underling(s)?
>>
>>79048420
>Has there been any hints at Grievous having his own apprentice or underling(s)?
He has his droids, but other than that he's never had any special minions or any kind of apprentice.
>>
>>79048369
Why didn't he just use his force powers to freeze the blaster bolts mid air like he did in the beginning? Did he forget to watch the matrix before going into battle?
>>
>>79048420
>so does this mean he is immune to force powers used against him like the space jews are (Toydarians)
Toydarians are just resistant to mind tricks. Apparently anyone with a strong enough will can resist them. Either way, that's not actual Force immunity.
>>
>>79048420
He's a fucking sack of organs bolted into a droid body.

>>79048420
his apprentices are the magnaguards

Oh absolutely, with Canon being so young, now is absolutely the best time to jump in.

I read and played stuff from the EU back in the day, but I always felt like there was too much, it was too big for me by the time I started, and I was always left out of the loop. I picked and chose what I thought I would like, but I spent more time reading wookiepedia than reading the books because there was just too much I missed already.

Whereas I actually feel on top of things now and as long as it doesn't get too dumb, I'll probably enjoy keeping up with Star Wars this time around.
>>
>>79048484
Anakin uses mind tricks on several species that are supposedly immune. Chalk it up to being the chosen one.
>>
>>79044618
he'd better have those giant horns he did in the what-if story
>>
>>79048537
In canon?
>>
>>79048420
He's almost certainly immune to the Force Trick by means of his willpower. Some of his "immunity" is through tricks. He can match their strength and speed, or surpass it, with his cybernetic body. His feet have claws that and the ability to magnetize to help him weather Force push. He has a grapnel system in his arm as a means of countering being telekinetically lifted. He can also contort in a number of different ways, even crawl like some kind of insect almost using his hands and multiple arms.

When dueling he of course has his ability to split his two arms into four, attacking from multiple angles and overwhelming his opponents, and then there's spinning. That's a neat trick.

Other than that he has no biological immunities beyond not being weak minded. His brain possibly has cybernetic augmentation as well, but a lot of the old books on the types of alterations done to him are no longer canon.
>>
>>79048488
Is he still a filthy meat bag by HK-47s standards?
>>
>>79048560
Probably, but I'm sure he'd say something about "an admirable effort to correct his natural flaws" or something.
>>
>>79048469
Freezing the bolt seems to have been his instinctive reaction towards being attacked. He could have just blocked the bolt, I'm sure. Didn't he already have his sword ignited since he just killed the old man? But his initial reaction was one of pure brute strength, an overreaction of sheer strength of mind to overpower the blaster bolt. Frankly that's fitting with his character. Extreme overreactions and resorting to powered rages? Check.
>>
>>79048606
I wish we'd have gotten to see it more. Like when Rey is shooting at him or even just on his approach to the forest for her, rather than just freezing her in place.
Imagine a couple pirates taking pot shots and he doesn't even bother looking at them as he walks away while they freeze in air.
>>
New thread---------->>79048644

>>79048717
I was really, really hoping someone would shoot at him and he'd stop the bolt, then send it back at them directly.
