It's not quite as I remember it:

In truth, Darth Vader is gone now. The body Luke eases gently to the floor is Anakin Skywalker.
"Luke, help me take this mask off," Anakin says, no longer booming."
"But you'll die."
"Nothing can stop that now. Just for once let me look on you with my own eyes."

It takes Luke a moment but he soon discovers how the front of Vader's mask can be detached from the helmet and removed. When he does so, the sound of Vader's respirator, already ragged, stops. And now Luke sees for himself the face of his father: scarred and battered into something barely human. And now Anakin sees his son's face: a handsome face creased with concern and, yes, bearing its own battle scars. But at least Anakin sees him not as a Jedi or a warrior or a threat or a mistake, but as his son...and Padme's son.

And Anakin smiles. Not a smile like the Emperor's. Or a crazed grin like Darth Maul's. Not even a smirk like Anakin might have shown Ahsoka back in his Jedi days. But a real smile. The smile that only Padme ever saw.
"Now...go, my son," Anakin struggles to say. "Leave me."
"No. You're coming with me. I can't leave you hear! I've got to save you!"
"You already have, Luke. You were right. You were right about me. Tell your sister...you were right."
"Father...I won't leave you."

Is this how the force works? You just tell it what to do and you jump like 20 feet? Is this how Luke puts the proton missile into the exhaust port and the older Jedi do all the acrobatic stuff?

For the guy who asked in the last thread why "soisoisoisoi" is being used as the onomatopoeia for helicopter noise, as I recall it's from people fucking around with text-to-speech software back in the day.

They fed in the line "MY ROFLCOPTER GOES SOISOISOISOISOISOI" and the program pronounced the "oi" of "soi" the same way the French pronounce the "oi" of "moi", so you get "SWAHSWAHSWAHSWAHSWAH" fast enough to sound like a helicopter rotor.

Lucas might be heavy-handed with his poetry, but Abrams does prose exclusively. There's no art to it. To the extent that he rhymes, he rhymes words with themselves.

Abrams has created a semi-serviceable space action movie, but he's thrown all the opera out of space opera, and that's what's ultimately wrong with TFA. Abrams should try to land a gig doing a revived Doctor Who movie; that might be more his style.

>>81449419

Prequels had atmosphere, but it was different than OT. It wasn't gritty desert guerrillas fighting a cold, heartless power, it was the decay and collapse of a decadent society and its dogmatic but well-meaning protectors. As for discovery - presumably the elements of discovery you're referring to are the explorations of the philosophy and legacy of the missing Jedi Order. Doesn't it bother you even a LITTLE bit that Abrams basically said "ha screw everything Luke did lmao"?
> hey look everyone the order was defeated from within again
> a corruptible edgelord was seduced by a weird smelly old guy and now he's the enforcer of the Empire

I suspect that Bane really didn't do much to create the Rule of Two since it's very likely the Sith were already well established in a Master/Apprentice dynamic. I obviously have nothing to back this up beyond the, as far as I can tell, still canon backstory that the Sith were formed, in part, by Dark Jedi who had a schism from the main Jedi Order in the far past. The Jedi love the Master/Padawan style of on the job training.

Anyway all Bane did was limit it to one pair, which was easy at that point since everyone else was dead. Just as the Jedi Temple on Lothal wants two to open it and it is most definitely NOT a Sith Temple, it wants a Master and Apprentice present. Even pre-Rule of Two it's most logical for Masters and Apprentices to have more trust in each other (but only a fool would have absolute trust). They relied on each other, at least until one sells out the other. It's more a security feature, it seems.

I dunno, just some thoughts on the matter.

I already said it several threads ago. What I mean is in OT and TFa characters care what happens on screen. They react to new things, to situations and such.
Most of the time in PT characters simply dont give a shit what happens around them - Jedi dont give a shit about discovering an underwater city, ObiWan is very serene about whole Kamino thing, barely showing any emotions. I suspect this is more a case of bad directing, since they are capable actors, even CHristensen has genuinely good scenes. In TFA they actually care what happens around them.

This is a case of "business as usual for seasoned, disciplined warrior-diplomats" vs. "i'm a naive desert-dweller and strange things are cool". It wouldn't make sense for the Jedi to be super excited about something that's routine for them.

You do see it in TPM: Young Anakin and Jar Jar display emotion in new places, because they're not used to being in new places. The Jedi and the Queen of Naboo don't because they're supposed to be collected at all times and are less naive about the universe.

I don't know if they'll ever get into any more specifics unless they find a reason to introduce that female Sith Lord fully, which wouldn't be hard if she's still in the holocron Ezra is holding. Hard to believe Kanan is letting him keep a dark artifact like that.

Anyway it could still have the same two force user requirement to open the Lothal Temple did and Maul is merely expressing it in the ways he was taught, which heavily reference the Rule of Two. The way they were describing getting into the temple in the Filoni/Witwer interview it requires a degree of trust, which isn't easy for Sith to come by. Definitely sounds like a security feature. If you were the Sith Lord who made that battle station you'd want to make sure you didn't let it get out of your control! Pity that it wasn't a rival (that we know of) but a malfunction that killed everyone in the area.

The number of Sith present in the battle, the scale of it, seems to exclude the Rule of Two as a possibility, however it could be a Master and an Apprentice and a butt load of Dark Side posers, similar to how Vader and Sidious use the Inquisition.

Yeah, definitely hoping they explore this a bit more. Just not sure how much backstory they can cram into an episode with the temple now behind them. Only way I can figure is if the Holocron gives a massive infodump.

That doesn't help, they still come off as boring. They always have that buisness as usual attitude, If ANH would have Luke as a seasoned general as in the original draft, the audience would be left without a surrogate. It wouldn't be an adventure, just another day. if they don't care what happens, why should we?

It's not that. I read a political manga recently I loved it.It's handled badly, to say the least. And I already said it's more atmosphere than story I care more. A character to sympathize with provides the sense of adventure. That is what lacking.

He referred back to the Tarkin dialogue in ANH, and explains that the Empire abandons the Inquisitorial program eventually.

>>81447099
Ezra mentions to Sabine he needs power cells for his lightsaber, so they still require batteries. No clue about the old EU wearable power supplies, but obviously energy cells by this time in the Star Wars galaxy are crazy powerful while still being small. Also crazy efficient. In nu canon kybers have been shown to amplify the energy applied to them (presumably via the Force) so they do get a big boost of energy.

Of course Ezra has a gunsaber, but we're told he can't use both functions at the same time due to the powerpack being unable to support both. The Malachor cross saber also cut out, but it was so old running out of power was likely the least of it's issues.

I like the variable power modes idea. It obviously takes less power when they're using it as a flashlight in spider or geonosian filled caverns rather than always using the same intensity, but I'm not sure how the sword can tell when it needs to up the juice to cut through metal or deflect a blaster. The extra power would have to amp up so fast as to be roughly instantaneous.

I hope continuing this topic doesn't cause a shitstorm. It was interesting before that one guy spazzed the fuck out and then the whole thing spiraled out of control.

For now, yes. They don't have too much time for self-indulgence. I'm not insulting your idea, I just mean they've been focusing on a massive push of pre-Sequel and OT related material prior to TFA's release. There might be more space now to tell a side story that isn't directly connected to anything, just a fun romp.

At any rate we're getting an Ahsoka novel. She's got the nomad stuff, apparently, and while she doesn't have the rank and title (not entirely sure where she is since we know she was still working with the Jedi and the army around the end of the war) she still lives that life. She just not official. Anyway they might give her a droid buddy. Someone to talk to during her adventures, at least.

He got a couple of episodes that actually delved into his character. As for Sabine, that 'Blood Sisters' episode did nothing in exploring who she was before she joined the Ghost Crew and 'Protector of Concord Dawn' didn't do anything with knowing who she was either, except she forged her own armor and her family was under the name Vizla.

He'll be a mass of conflicting emotions, otherwise known as a teenager, but worse since the Force tends to amplify this shit.

He's angry, he wants revenge, he wants to get stronger, he wants to fight. But all of this covers his fear and his guilt. He was the one who insisted Yoda help them fight, Yoda reluctantly told him where to go, where cosmic events were rushing for a nasty convergence.

The last time we see him, he opened up a Sith Holocron, he's not scared of the Dark Side now and is embracing it. As for what's going to happen to him next season, he's going to escalate the violence and probably kill some innocent people in the process, or worse, hurt someone in the Ghost Crew.

Fun fact that tends to be easily forgotten since we never saw it. According to Stealth Strike Ezra's gunsaber had a kill setting, he just never used anything other than stun. And no surprise, he's a kid. Even when he deflected a stormtrooper's blaster bolt and knocked him down he told the guy, "See? Didn't hurt" (or words to that effect).

With this lightsaber destroyed I won't be surprised if Ezra goes with either something more traditional or something WITHOUT a stun setting. I think he's ready to go dark, if not totally dark side. Not yet anyway.

Nah, that would be Maul. I wouldn't be surprised if there was an episode about potential rebel sympathizers being turned away from their cause thanks to Maul and some new allies of his using terroristic acts and not giving a damn about civilian casualties in order to weaken the Empire.

If anything is going to push Ezra away from the Ghost crew and towards the Dark Side, it is going to be something similar to the fears we saw when he was getting his crystal for his light saber; he's terrified of the idea that his new family doesn't genuinely care about him and is willing to abandon him. I could see a bad misunderstanding leading to something like this.

OMG, yes! Ezra was only willing to trust Maul after finding out that he'd also lost loved ones to the Empire, and he only started to tap into the Dark Side when he prodded him about needing to be less merciful in order to protect his friends. There's no doubt in my mind that Maul was planning on blaming Kanan and Ahsoka's deaths on the Inquisitors for the same reason.

Imagine if something went wrong and Ezra was convinced the Ghost crew abandoned/betrayed him? That would be the PERFECT moment for Maul to jump in and snatch him up.

Identity of Sabine's mother confirmed:
This is Rook Kast, the leader of the Mandalorian supercommandos under Maul (those red-patterned, horned Mandalorian warriors we see in TCW).

Imagine if Ezra is cornered when his allies are forced to retreat?

What if Ezra is captured by the enemy and the crew can't immediately drop everything for a rescue mission?

All of these would be prime moments for Maul to jump in and convince him that the crew of the Ghost didn't really care about him, and to get Ezra to join him.

It's a shame nobody has carried on that tradition, surely we'd have some fun ones. Though I'm worried Hondo now merits an Imperial Prison flick. We never saw him after he was last in their custody, after all. I can't imagine Kallus just let him walk away after they failed to catch the Rebels.

That's actually pretty depressing.

>>81454955
Nope, neither of them was cut.

He was clashing sabers with Starkiller and they were locked and grappling and, well, see for yourself.

Blinded by a lightsaber attack by someone voiced by Sam Witwer is the extent of the comparison. Beyond that different characters, different circumstances, different contact with the blade.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBBMjxnv_Gg#t=254

The actual discussion was about how exactly Kanan was wounded, direct contact or some kind of heat microwaved his face. Threads had talked about it back and forth for awhile, talking about how Kanan's nose survived. Anyway some anon suddenly brought up Kota like he'd been talking about him the entire time, got called out on it, and then shameful drama dominated the thread.

It still exists if you want to look it up, but if into the 4chan archive you go, only sperging will you find. Seriously. Thank fuck it was already autosaging.

Don't lie, I was there, he said he'd been talking about Kota when describing what happens when lightsabers clash and since it's literally the ONLY instance of it happening for the finale to say he's lying is pretty ridiculous of you. You're that SAME guy as last time, aren't you? What the fuck is wrong with you? You really are a "weirdo" huh?

Yeah he didn't sound quite right. I wasn't sure if they had a different voice actor, if it was age, maybe the mask, or it had been too long since he'd done that voice.

Guess it was age.

Still seems weird that he was a member of the resistance but they had no ships. King Lee Char no longer holds the throne - and that's before his work with the Rebellion saving the galaxy. Guy owes his very throne to Ackbar, you'd think he wouldn't mind supporting any cause Ackbar believes in.
>>
Will we ever get an episode that follows vader?
>>
>>81455549
No. It would serve no real purpose and detract from the story of the main characters. Rebels is has a tighter focus than TCWs, so they don't do things on par with suddenly having a Mace Windu/Jar Jar buddy episode.
>>
>>81455329

That's true. It could be anyone in the mask. I can't determine if it's fitting to keep the character and give him an important role at some point to honor the original voice actor, or retire him. Probably just find someone else. I mean it's not like they didn't cast Scorpius as Tarkin in episode III.

Looks like TCWs VA is Artt Butler. I wasn't familiar so I had to look him up to see who else he's voiced

That's what some people have been saying, yeah. I don't think a lot of people really care either way. That guy was in a one-shot whose only point in his favor was surviving nearly getting Sheeved, and he probably won't survive this.

At the very least it's picking up the idea kicked around a lot after the disney sale that we'd start seeing more negative aspects of the Rebellion. The potential Rebel war crimes, the mercenaries, bounty hunters, and pirates who sided with them for the pay or because they had a mutual enemy in the Empire. That really didn't pain out, but this guy is at least full on extremist.

Plus we get to see some of those IG-RM droids enforcers, so that's not too bad.

Can someone explain to me this meme of the rebel fleet being destroyed? I saw nothing of the sort in TFA, in fact I saw no ships whatsoever after Han and Chewie take off in the Falcon with Rey and Finn with the exception of the B-wing transport, TIE fighters, X-wings, and an interior shot of the Finalizer. I was shocked and disgusted by the lack of unique spacecraft for a fucking star wars film.

From what I remember, the Resistance simply had no access to the extant republic fleet or did not have time to muster it for a full fledged assault, but nowhere did I see the destruction of any such fleet occur nor heard it talked about. I recollect no ships whatsoever around Bosnia Prime, only some asteroid shit.
>>
>>81456515
Seems like the Republic fleet being destroyed is based on Hux's speech about destroying their Senate and "cherished fleet", which since we only saw it destroy one system I think made people assume both targets were in the same star system.

I don't know, it was a pretty vague plan Hux laid out in his Hitler speech.
>>
>>81456586
The film is out on Blu Ray, you can get some glorious shots of the worlds and ships being destroyed. People were sharing the pics. They seemed to have at least one Nebulon-B like ship and a few triangular ships too.

Boy that must have been blink and you miss it. Even so that's like a dozen ships, we saw more explosions than that in ANH, is that really supposed to be the entire republic fleet or is it just random ships in orbit?
>>
>>81456893
That's a pretty narrow view of the planet so I wouldn't expect all their ships to be conveniently packed into this one viewable spot for the camera.
>>
>>81456965
That makes for pretty terrible direction then if the intent was to showcase the annihilation of the republic fleet. I suspect that if it wasn't shown in great detail, it wasn't very important.
>>
>>81457031
Like people said, it was in Hux's speech that their primary targets were the Senate and the Republic Fleet and then the remaining systems will bow.

The only way to hope to take out the fleet would be in the initial attack before they either defensively disperse or all show up on your doorstep knocking for some vengeance.

It was enough of an implied implication for people, if that's what you're going for.

The New Republic has a drastically cut military so they don't exactly have many ships to spare anyway.

Aftermath I actually abandoned because I actually felt myself ignoring it as an attempt at self-defense. THAT is a denouncement. It is the literary equivalent of someone eating garbage and throwing it up and then digging back in for seconds. It is the Two Girls One Cup of Star Wars.

This current Ahsoka, i.e. the one under the temple right now, saw a vision of an older Ahsoka when she was on Mortis too. It didn't make her be any more careful around Anakin.

Oi I just realized they had their memory wiped after the Mortis thing so it doesn't matter anyways

>>81459119
He'd find a way.

My favorite was his plan to send Anakin after Obi-Wan. There was no possible way Sheev didn't somehow sense that "Rako Hardeen" was Obi-Wan in disguise, though I suppose...yeah I guess it's possible he just wanted Anakin to kill for revenge, one step closer to the Dark Side. I still prefer the idea he was sending Anakin to unwittingly kill his own friend.

>>81459256
I think the other anon has a point, especially later in the war. Obi-Wan and Anakin still had buddy adventures together now and then but they each could be sent off with their respective armies on different assignments. His Padawan, meanwhile, was almost always at his side since that's how she was meant to learn.

If you meant closer as in who he cares more about, well, he cares about Obi-Wan but he has a same overwhelming need to protect her that is very much like how he reacts with Padme. Some of Anakin's darkest moments has been the things he's done to protect one or the other.

You are correct, good sir. Only Anakin had his mind wiped and only then from the future knowledge of becoming Vader and the Empire.

One of the things I love about TCWs is how they show Anakin hating what he's doomed/destined to become, plus all the aspects that show how Anakin performed key acts that later helped save the galaxy from himself, like helping Yoda escape the Jedi Temple and travel to Dagobah.

The way Bane talked about it in TCW leads to believe that the Rule of Two was something that was very much his creation, not something that he adapted from others, but we don't have much to go on this matter
>>
>>81456148

Although we only saw the Hosnian system's planets being destroyed, for some reason the First Order and the Resistance spoke as though the Republic fleet was also wiped out. Even before the weapon fired, Hux mentioned destroying the fleet.

My guess is that when the planets kerploded, they hit the fleet too. The surviving fleet would have been in disarray, and would have lost most of its authority figures.

Imagine the Imperial Navy at Endor after the Death Star and the Executor were both destroyed. Now imagine it 1000x worse, and you have an idea of just how "chicken with its head cut off" the Republic fleet would be.

Taking credit for others work seems like a Sith thing to do. However I don't think the point was he adapted other's work, merely his big step was limiting them to just one pairing from a dynamic that was already in place. I doubt Sith Master and Apprentice relationships were much different between pre and post Rule of Two. The key with Bane is his reasoning for why they needed to limit themselves to just two true Sith and the philosophies behind that. He surely didn't create the ideas of masters and apprentices or even potentially needing two to open a temple since the Lothal temple was the same way and there were apparently quite a few Sith who fought at Malachor.

Basically he took something that already existed, Master and Apprentice relationships, and said, "We should only have two and no more." The fact that he did this, his reasoning, and the fact that it came damn close to succeeding proves even if the above is true it doesn't diminish his accomplishments.

I think Mothma wanting a reduction of military strength makes sense for her character, but the "let's keep all of our ships in the same place and let's completely ignore the blatant rise of Empire 2.0 and ignore Leia's warnings" is such an idiotic stance for the New Republic.
>>
>>81461374

One of the things that's still not clear to me even after reading about the stuff in the Visual Dictionary is just what kind of scale the First Order is operating on here.

The existence of the Republic and the fact that they "rose from the ashes of the Empire" suggests to me that the First Order is small. Like, if the Republic is the UN, the First Order is MAYBE North Korea or ISIS. So they're terrorists without a whole lot of power on the galactic stage. The First Order also can't be that big if the Republic refuses to engage them directly and instead has this small Resistance do the fighting -- the Republic certainly could drum up the resources to fight on its own, but apparently doesn't think it's worth the trouble. If that's the case, the destruction of something as enormous and involved as Starkiller Base would be a DEVASTATING blow to the First Order -- they'd be reeling for years.

But the tech, resources, and manpower they have, as well as the fact that they seem to have every single small-time hood in the galaxy out hunting a droid and two fugitives within mere hours (if not minutes) of beginning their own hunt for the same, suggests that they're at least equivalent in power to the Republic. It suggests they're not just the Nazis hiding in Brazil, they're a full-fledged superpower in their own right, like the Soviet Union to the Republic's Cold-War-era America. If this is the situation, then they can actually keep fighting despite the loss of Starkiller Base, but it makes you wonder why the Republic sat for 30 years with its thumb up its ass before anyone knew the First Order could destroy planets. What made the Cold War cold was the promise of mutually assured destruction if the USA and USSR actually fought directly, but you don't have the threat of MAD here, so what's the deal?

TL;DR: The First Order flips between terrorist band and evil superpower arbitrarily because shit writing is shit, so who the fuck knows how the FO's doing now?

First Order is little dinky shit.

They're a small faction like the resistance compared to the New Republic. NR didn't wipe them out because they voted to stop going to war and to put an end to the fighting. They ceded them their space, allowing them to have it.
>>
>>81462008
I guarantee you they're too busy arguing in committees, still haven't reformed a proper Senate yet, and most of them blame Leia for provoking First Order hostility.

Aftermath and Shattered Empire show that the fighting kept going for a year or so, but yeah, after Endor it was mostly just a galactic mop-up operation.

>>81461886
I'd love it if 8 had the First Order crippled by the loss of Starkiller Base and all the troops there and had to resort to different tactics instead of trying to act like they're already a full Empire. Have them on the run this time.

But no, I think they're going to go with "First Order was barely phased by this and is still super-powerful, New Republic is basically crippled and the Resistance are once again the scrappy underfunded underdogs" yet again.

Nope, they just weren't in Republic space. They were operating within the First Order's space the whole time during the film. They were deliberately upholding their peace agreement to stall for time so they could get Starkiller ready to fire, they weren't going to break that before they were ready.

>The First Order, a junta that believed themselves to be the successors to the ideals of the Galactic Empire,[7] converted the planet into a base of operations owing to its unique energy-transmitting crystalline deposits,[6] and used it to house a superweapon capable of destroying entire star systems.[5] The superweapon consumed stars as a power source via a method which cut off starlight from the surface, and would move on to a new star system after depleting a particular star.[8]

>The weapon ran on a type of dark energy called "quintessence", which was ubiquitous in the universe, and offered a practically unlimited power source to the First O-

>Building a giant cannon inside of an already-existing planet has to take fewer resources than building a moon-sized space station from scratch
Not really. Look at how much more had to be built, in addition to digging out enough of the planet to do that.

>>81463024

The size comparison in the movie itself shows that just the parts visible from space combined are much bigger than the Death Star.

That's not counting internal sections and other structures that are not visible from space.

Apparently the First Order solved the problem of unlimited energy, could have prospered like never before and taken the galaxy by storm and been heralded as heroes. Instead they just went straight for weaponizing it.

Okay, fair's fair we had atom bombs before reactors but it was hard enough getting the things to catastrophically release all their energy. They didn't even know if the bombs would work until they tested them. Harder to come up with slower releasing, stabilized reaction. Presumably.

But no, they solve the energy crisis and immediately decide, "Well these star things are obsolete, let's just throw them at people."

Or if they just wanted to go the "conquer by force" route they could've used all the time, money and material that went into Starkiller Base to build a huge fleet of ships, maybe enough to make Han's "wtf the Empire can't blow up planets they'd need a shitload of ships with insane amounts of firepower" scenario a reality.

Tarken still gets the gold medal.

I mean *technically* the Death Star gunner does, but Tarkin had him executed so he'd get that medal and another for that guy's widow. Which Tarkin will also keep.

Vader got a sippy cup from the Death Star gift shop. It's in the shape of his own helmet but with, you know, tooka features. That's a thing in Star Wars. It's canon. Read a book, you'll find out. They're called Tookaboos.

According to the visual dictionary her abilities manifested mostly in her iron will. At least that's what Luke believes.

She has it, she can sense shit, not sure about any powers, definitely doesn't wear a lightsaber, but definitely has it. More like adapted to it differently, and by choice. This isn't inherently wrong, we've seen groups that do this. Not sure about the Lasat and the Ashla, but definitely the Dagoyan Masters. They only access it passively in visions and have hardened resistance against mind tricks and the like, but don't have the super jumps or TK or any of that stuff.

I suspect she's got some of the borderline stuff, too, the enhanced reflexes and so on. She seems a pretty fair pilot.

So you mean specific to just that time period and not "now that chopper exists and after all the shit we've seen him do". Fair enough.

Never happen. Snoke doesn't have a dog (suitably magnified) sitting on his lap who occasionally wonders around in holograph form, holo-shiffing Kylo Ren, trying to mount Hux at some point, and when it leaves little holo dookus on the floor making them try to lean it up and laughing as they struggle to move a hologram. Kylo always has to stab at least two walls after this happens just to calm down. Hux just takes it in silent stride.

No, I suspect that was his optic nerves sending signals of sheer agony as they died. Gruesome, but he managed to recover cast enough. I assume Jedi are able to feel pain.

Not sure about the helmet he used, though. Did it have enhanced audio receptors? Would that even work after that many years?

Anyway I imagine he just seems total darkness...except for what the Force shows him. I hope we get to see some "Kanan Force vision" in season 3.

The way the Force works that's surely not true. She's always had it, and it's always been there, helping her out, even if she wasn't aware of it. You can never just turn off the Force, that's impossible. Awareness of the Force only deepens your understanding of just how much if affects your life and the lives of everyone.
>>
>>81466168
Yeah, it's one of those things where when you find out you're actually Force sensitive, you look back at your life and go "I guess that explains a few things"
>>
>>81464510

The movies never suggested that she would be trained. In the new canon, she's Force-sensitive, but never did anything with it. Just wasn't a priority.

Legends had Luke train her for a while, but her political work kept getting in the way and eventually she retired from the whole Jedi thing. Just wasn't working out.
>>
>>81466205
Sadly Leia seems to have chosen to remain largely ignorant of the Force. Maybe she felt it wasn't her world, maybe she just never found time. Maybe she felt she'd be too tempted to Mind Trick some of the douchier Senators.

Mostly I suspect it was because they (JJ and Kasden) wanted her to be ignorant of it so she'd need to send Ben to Luke, causing the death of his Order. If Leia knew the Force she wouldn't need to send Ben. Hell, if Leia knew it she could still defer to Luke as more of an expert in the Dark Side and temptation, but they haven't really touched on that.

It's a bit of a sore point with me I wish they'd clarify.
>>
>>81464847
>The fact they rushed to delete her Ep 8 pic from her twitter with her wearing black robes seems super suspicious.
Apparently they also made the actors on VII wear those robes on the way to the stage, cause they were concerned about people leaking the constumes.
So I really wouldn't put much stock in rumors like that.
>>
>>81466168

Training also makes you able to consciously draw on it.

So while the Force might help her out, it's not like she's causing it to do so. It's more like just having a high-ish Luck stat in Elder Scrolls or Fallout, plus some rather strong intuition. Might be helping her be an effective politician, at that, since she'll have an intuitive sense of what other people are feeling.

Zuvio is a subspecies
>>
>>81466288
They largely did the same thing in the Star Wars expanded universe before the Force Awakens. I don't know I just don't think she'd care all that much about using the force.
>>
>>81466332
Training certainly helps, but the power is still inside you and you can learn to access it on your own. You don't always need a master, though that's a huge aid. Ezra, untrained, had the reflexes, (subconscious) danger sense, and even Force jump after he saw Kanan do it.

A much bigger problem to Leia is she's now an adult and it's harder to open their eyes to a whole new world. Luke was trained late game but, let's be honest, he was such a kid in the first movie. So idealistic and willing to accept the magic of the Force. Even then he had trouble accessing it. Unfortunately he had a lot of Uncle Owen holding him back.

Rey seems to benefit from that childlike state too. She never had parents or a formal education and she's very much like a kid at times, how she eats, wearing the beaten up Rebel pilot helmet. Once she stops being afraid of the Force she accepts the stories, the legends, readily. That certainly helps her out too.

Leia, well, she was raised to think of others. I don't think she had much time to ever really be a child. The few times in her mini we saw her sneak out her dad wasn't pleased. It feels like she'd have a lot of problems, even more than Luke, learning to truly connect with the Force. Her sense of duty, her world, as it were, is firmly in the here and now, the material world, not the spiritual.
>>
>>81466332
>It's more like just having a high-ish Luck stat in Elder Scrolls or Fallout, plus some rather strong intuition.
More than that: whatever you put your mind and effort into doing, the Force sorta trickles into your life and it makes you better at it, makes it easier for you. That exceptionalism makes you stand out.

They talk about it in A New Dawn; Kanan had to keep moving from place to place, taking on whatever work he could for as short as he could, because if he stayed in one place too long and became REALLY good at something, he'd stand out, and that's when the Empire takes notice.

Hell, that exceptionalism that can be found in more than just Leia and her political influence at her young age. Ezra was an expert thief, and some Force intuition could warn him of nearby danger, even if he wasn't aware he was using it. Anakin was an expert with building things and flying, seen from his earliest days in podracing. Rey spent her entire life in the desert surrounded by ruined starships and thugs, so she knows her way around machines and how to defend herself.

It's when you REALIZE what the Force is, and that it can be controlled for your use, that you can start to improve your abilities with it. Or go mad with power or something.
>>
>>81466508

It seemed really weird how readily Rey jumped into using the Force, but I see it as a symptom of a broader problem: everyone in TFA acts like they've already seen the previous movies.

People in the Resistance war room just casually talk about the Death Star once they see Starkiller Base, like it's just a thing everyone knows about. The last time anyone saw a Death Star was 30 goddamn years ago. Poe Dameron was a sperm in his dad's testicles at the time. You'd think some of those other young bucks in the war room would have some sort of confusion about it and not just be like "oh yeah, the Death Star, we all know all about it".

Rey, who's been on Jakku since she was a little girl, with little to no formal education, knows all about Luke Skywalker and Han Solo and Darth Vader. Back in ANH, when Obi-Wan told Luke about Vader, he was talking like Luke would never have heard of Vader before, and Luke acted like it was news to him too. Vader had been a thing for 20 years, but wasn't exactly something the Empire was waving around in public; Senators, like Leia, knew about him because he was part of the government, and the Rebels knew about him because he liked to crash their parties, but the average galactic citizen, at least on the Outer Rim, didn't know who Vader was after twenty years of Vader being part of the Empire. How does Rey know about him to the point that she can spit "you're afraid you'll never be as powerful as Darth Vader!" at Kylo Ren like she knows how powerful Vader was?

I could totally buy people knowing about the Emperor in the TFA era. The Emperor was a major public figure with a huge propaganda presence. But nobody ever mentions him, for some reason. It's all Vader, Death Star, Luke, Han, even though those would be much more easily forgotten by the general public.

Everyone in TFA has seen all the Star Wars movies, and they also know they're in a Star Wars movie right now.
>>
>>81466543
I'm still curious about Zeb and the Ashla. Does it turn out they're another Force Sensitive species and that's why the Emperor wanted them wiped out? Somehow with his staff Zeb successfully guided them. Kanan and Ezra even connected with him via the Force to help. It was all very weird.

Could just be the bo-rifle if it has a kyber or similar crystal. Every being has some degree of Force in them, that and the staff may be enough to ... do it's magic. I guess?
>>
>>81466748
>everyone in TFA acts like they've already seen the previous movies.
In a way everyone in the galaxy has and this must look pretty familiar to historians.

>Poe Dameron was a sperm in his dad's testicles at the time

Poe was already born at that time. Sadly we didn't see the Aftermath of Poe being conceived by his parents in the comic mini.

As for the others, I guess when you're surrounded by living legends you've heard all the stories by now. Hell, everyone learned about the Death Star II when they were told of the Emperor's death. Next thing we know "WEESA FREE!" and people are mosh pitting Stormtroopers over the sides of buildings.

With Rey I think it was more a problem of how RUSHED the pacing in the movie is. I forgive Rey a lot of things because when she tried them she was in a "why not" state. If you've learned you've got the Force and some asshole with a bad haircut keeps trying to Force himself into your head, you might as well push back a bit.
