It's not like Vader is her story. She's her own character. It was her *past* with Anakin that made a confrontation with Vader inevitable. Now that she's tried and failed to redeem him she's actually free from the need for them to meet up again.

When we last saw her she was heading somewhere, suggesting she has a purpose. She feels horrible that she left Anakin, she won't abandon the Rebellion and compound that.

I assume you're just talking about husbando stuff, but we really didn't need more stories of a younger Luke. His character arc was over. It why we really didn't need any sequel to Jedi to begin with, but at least with an older Luke we can explore how he's adapted to his lofty role in Jedi history and his responsibilities as a seasoned mentor.

I really hope he isn't just Obi-Wan or Yoda 2.0 VIII.

Not gonna lie Rebels was not impressing me as was this new Star wars in general but that season 2 end game really captured everything I love about this shit, they knocked it out of the park

It's not even a screw up. You can actually see that just like the rest of the Death Star it's just the framework. It's a metallic lattice, a skeleton, not even fully fleshed out. Why the heck would a fully completed emitter dish already be in place when nothing else on the surface, or the interior for that matter, is done?

For some reason people see a round shape and shout, "OO OO OO! LOOKIT!" but never bothered to actually look closer at what they'd seen. No clue why they thought this was like the Death Star II and despite being half done it must be fully armed and operational. Weapons done, just need to attach the frame and apply the coat of standard Imperial grey paint. Yeah, right.

That's a lack of creativity, though. Ventress was a Sith Assassin, a mini-boss to harass the Jedi so they didn't always have to face Dooku or Grievous and humiliate them by always getting away. Grievous suffered enough from that as it was.

Change her dynamic, take her out of her initial role, and what does she become? Something else. Ultimately dead, but everyone dies even in fiction. Except for Boba Fett, he'll outlive them all as he digests for the next thousand years, and only when he's older than Yoda will he finally pass.

These characters can be whoever they want them to be. You might not see any use, maybe they can. Maybe they can even make it compelling. But if you think Ahsoka was always limited by being necessarily attached to Anakin it's a shame we never saw her further adventures on her own in TCWs unproduced materials. After all, her point to being Anakin's Padawan was him learning to let her go, which we knew he'd have to eventually. So many people thought she died because she wasn't in Episode III. She didn't.

BB-8 must have the most unpractical design of all droids.
I mean, he can't possibly traverse everywhere.
And if he wants to use one of those arms that unlock doors he will have to roll around a bunch to position himself. Sometimes the arm might be under him, or behind him.
He's such a stupid design.

>>81595212
We still have people going "THERE'S GONNA BE BOTHANS IN THIS ONE RIGHT? HEY SAID MANY BOTHANS DIED I WANNA SEE THAT" despite like two years of reminding people that's the second Death Star. Pointing out that they're looking at the ROTS DS wrong isn't going to stop them from flinging shit on mock-outage.

>>81595388
But theories are going to happen anyway. You're blaming Lucas for something idiot fanboys are coming up with.

We've been dealing with that for more than two years. Try decades. Though yes it does come up rather more often these days. Before Rogue One we were dealing with people shouting that if Rebels dealt with the Death Star Filoni would be retconning out the Bothans.

>>81595331
They're going for a gritty spy/espionage type of film. They're might be some lighthearted moments and a ray of hope at the end, but it's not going to be a happy go lucky film. Let's just say, don't get attached to your favorite character, they might not live.

Except Lucas had literally nothing to do with the idea of Plagueis having a staff, so your aphorism is wrong. Lucas did have everything to do with R2D2 belonging to Padme Amidala, the mother of Luke and Leia, and everything to do with C3P0 being built by Anakin, Luke and Leia's father, and how Vader was Anakin, and how Obi-Wan just happened to be on the same planet the stolen Death Star plans wound up landing on, etc etc ad nausem. That kind of asspull convenient connectivity sticks to epics like toilet paper on a trucker's boot.

>>81595632
TRUE ECKS DEE

>>81595589
I wonder how he will be utilized in the next one, if at all.
Will R2 do everything or is there going to be a convenient reason in EP8 too for why he's not around?
Or they will just have Rey do all of the door opening.

>Except Lucas had literally nothing to do with the idea of Plagueis having a staff, so your aphorism is wrong.
He also had nothing to do with the idea of Kylo building BB-8. Both theories rely entirely on the POTTERY meme.

Either way you're blaming him for something he had nothing to do with and getting legit upset about it, as if a fan theory were a real thing. Kylo building BB-8 isn't even a wide enough theory to justify being annoyed with.

I say it doesn't feel like Star Wars because it doesnt have Lucas's signature visuals. It looks like a modern film with a Star Wars theme like TFA.

Not saying it's going to be bad or not good, it's just very clear Lucas is gone from the series.

>>81595405
>That's a lack of creativity, though.
No it isn't. It's being aware of when to call it quits and resolve a story with thematic strength and emotional resonance intact and at their most potent. Some cool shit could be done with her, maybe, sure. But is it warranted? Is there something else about her that we really need to see? Probably not. Ahsoka doesn't need to be another Darth Maul or Boba Fett.

I could be wrong, maybe she'll be back in an interesting way. I really doubt it, though.

>>81595020
Still feels weird. We saw the GI go into a ball of fire, and the Fifth Brother get disemboweled. It feels weird to have him do this offscreen sort of deal when the series hasn't shied from killing its antags onscreen in grody ways.

>>81595781

But I'd love a sequel for Delta Squad, recononize that stuff and let us have a game where they try to find Sev.

>>81595339
Thinking about it, I don't think the Geonosians ever actually expected this thing to destroy planets. Take out some ships with a big gun? Sure. Maybe wipe out cities. Heavily armored, mobile, huge fighter carrying capacity. A base you can move anywhere in the galaxy and lay siege to any world or even entire star systems.

But destroying planets? I doubt it, unless they somehow knew the magic of kyber crystals. I think the Emperor is the one who decided to add that little ingredient to amplify the power of the weapon.

To me there is a difference in creating something to wage conventional warfare and an outright doomsday weapon. But it probably doesn't matter. Show the CIS dbags a weapon that can destroy entire planets and they'd probably clap and cheer. Would Nute Gunray be appalled? Or Wat Tambor? Maybe just in the idea of destroying worlds instead of conquering them and reaping all the riches, the actual spoils of war.

Already mentioned. Without the kyber it could explode ships, probably decimate cities. That's still impressive. Remember the Malevolence with it's massive ion canon? They are familiar with super weapons.

Lucas has gone on record that he's done with Star Wars. He described it as an ex-wife/girlfriend. He can't get close, he has to move on and forward.

Further proof? Watch the premier of TFA. He literally walked away from the interview with Andi.

>>81596113

But that was only because Frank Marshall called him away. Not that it changes that Lucas is done with Star Wars, he made that clear, but just clearing up what actually happened in the red carpet interview.

>>81596130

Why? A giant armored battle station with thousand so surface guns, shields enough to repel enemy fleets, able to carry massive compliments of ships, troops/droids, and all the goodies you need, and also had a big gun.

To them it could basically have been a mobile oppression palace. You can't lay siege against it, you blockade against it. But then star fighters and that one tiny flaw in the plans would no doubt still happen.

>>81596212
That doesn't make sense. Even if they were making a giant non-planet cracking mobile battle station the Republic would still attack them before they could complete it.

At that point, it's only a few steps away from being a planet killer as it is, so I don't see the point in hiding the weapon's true intention from them.

Plus if they're the ones building it and they have the actual plans I don't know how you could hide its purpose from them. The Geonosians knowing the purpose of the Death Star would also justifying silencing them permanently.

Let me ask you this, though: would it make a big difference to the Geonosians if this giant weapon they're building is a planet killer or not?

Not if EA fucks up badly enough to get the company completely gutted. Licensing rights would return to Disney, and they could pick another anti-consumer company to make more shitty cash grabs.

>>81596212
The Republic kicked the shit out of Geonosis a second time for daring to create some ray shielded super tanks. The arc ends with Poggle captured and a queen killed. It doesn't take building a Death Star to get the shit kicked out of them.

That said, recall that Grievous was sent to retrieve a kyber. Was it for the Death Star? Ultimately, yes, but I suppose people can still argue whether the CIS was in the dark as to why they needed the crystal and it was juts something Sidious and/or Dooku ordered Grievous to secure.

I feel sorry for anyone who has had to work with George Lucas in the past seven or eight years, he has become truly insufferable.

He demands more control than anyone would ever be willing to give him. He sells Star Wars to Disney, hands them his treatments for Ep. VII-IX, authorizes three people at Disney to actually look at them then complains when the movie doesn't turn out the way he wants it.

He sunk the Darth Maul game and 1313 on a whim, then hands his whole company over to Disney finally puts Lucasarts out of its misery, then sells the video game rights to EA.

Then again the Emperor had them all killed and got rid of the people that might have known what exactly that station they were building actually was.

There is a rather huge difference between subjugating a planet with a giant battle station and just destroying that planet.

The CIS knowing at all, at the start of the war, about a weapon of that magnitude is a huge issue. Sidious was all about compartmentalization of information. It would be fully in character to trick the Geonosians into creating the very thing he later plans on turning into yet another Sith super weapon without them knowing they're actually creating a planet destroying gun.

But the Geonosians aren't the entire CIS. I can believe regular Separatist citizens and even the senate probably didn't know about it. But having Poggle and the Geonosians not be aware of what it was they were building is kind of stupid.

>>81596663
Have we even seen the Geonosians care about death? Heck, one of them got eaten in front of his coworkers by a nexu and they didn't bat an eye. You're asking why an enemy combatant would care if they built a superweapon that could kill an enemy's entire planet in one shot.

I don't think the CIS or the Geonosians would care at all about neutralizing an enemy with whatever they had in their arsenal.

>>81596854
I don't know if he ever said that but I know he was never attached to direct Rogue One. We still don't know for sure what movie he was working on (the big rumor is Boba Fett) but we do know he wasn't doing Rogue One or Han Solo.

>>81596529
>He demands more control than anyone would ever be willing to give him.
The fact you don't understand why Lucas wanted control over his franchise is unsettling. Do you know the drama between Hollywood and Lucas. Do you recall what happened during the making of ANH and ESB?

Lucas is not some dictator, this Plinkett rumor has to go. Almost everyone that works with him challenges him and his ideas. He wasn't surrounded by "Yes men" during TPM. Everyone was over ambitious and excited that they forgot to double check.

>>81596529
Lucas was the phantom menace the whole time.

>>81595212
>>81595624
Yeah, just like when people started bitching about how powerful Chewie's bowcaster was in TFA, when the one time we saw its effects in the OT it disintegrated a speeder bike with a single hit.

>>81596940
Lucas was the main villain in TFA

>>81596863
Considering how expensive and material heavy the Death Star construction has been shown to be multiple times in canon, I can't see the Geonosians doing it on their own. Especially when their world keeps being conquered by the Republic.

They don't need the average citizen or the Senate, both of whom are repeatedly been shown to be unfortunate dupes, to know. The CIS Council with the resources of the Techno Union, Banking Clans, Trade Federation, etc? Yeah.

Did Luke, Leia and Kylo ever learn about their grand/mother Padme? Wasn't Phasma's armor made out of Padme's ship's hull or some shit? Would Kylo have done that on purpose for her?

>>81596863
>But having Poggle and the Geonosians not be aware of what it was they were building is kind of stupid.
Most of the Empire didn't know what the damn Death Star would do, until the thing actually shot and killed Alderaan. The people working in the battlestation itself didn't know what exactly the Death Star was capable of.

Read Lost Stars for further information.

>>81596933
I refuse to believe no one told him Jar Jar or killing Maul were bad ideas.

>>81596638

But fuck those guys, he made those movies, it's up to him. It's when he fucks with guys like Red Fly Studios and the 1313 Dev team or the even the guys who made the concept art for Star Wars Underworld who LOVE STAR WARS and had been busting their asses trying to do the best job they can that makes him a dick. He is like Anakin Skywalker.

>>81597048
No, it's the chroming from Palpatine's old Naboo transport from when he was a Senator.

>>81596885
They're hive insects. The death of a drone means nothing to them, however we've seen Anakin use Force Choke to torture Poggle into giving over the details on how to defeat the mind control worms. He very much seems to care about his own life, but he's a non-queen leader caste, so maybe that's the difference.

>>81597055
They simply acknowledge that not every stormtrooper is equally badass as every other stormtrooper. They aren't a clone army anymore with the same base physical traits and strict training regimen. You can still have those badasses taking over the Tantive IV, though not without casualties, and you can have the idiot guards who make up the local garrison on a planet.

The Empire was fucking huge and standards were all over the place. The reason we're given why the First Order Stormtroopers are back to being largely badass elites is because the First Order has a much smaller number of them and are forced to rely more on quality control instead of zerg rush tactics.

I recall all of that shit. I recall the studio meddling that kept American Grafitti from being released, and how furious Warner Bros. was with THX-1138 which nearly brought down he and Copalla's own studio, American Zoetrope.

I know what happened when he didn't like what Dale Pollack had written in Lucas' first official biography.

I know about the time he threw out hundreds of completed VFX shots from ILM on RoTJ, the whole crew screaming at him the whole time.

Don't even FUCK with me right now.

Fun thing is, FO troopers are pretty much the same as the OT ones. Guys who miss the heroes for obvious plot armor reasons, but are still portrayed as threatening figures and the main characters take them seriously. They just don't have 30 years of overanalysis and memes on their backs.

Both versions in game are semi auto, I mean I guess the heavy blaster version is "automatic" in the sense that if you hold the mouse button down it will fire continuously but its very slow and its only got like 8-10 shots before overheating, the T21b is like a DMR version of it. ANYWAY, I want pics of it from Rogue One, but I don't know how they get those super high quality screengrabs from a youtube video, they always wind up artifacted for me.

What the actual fuck? No offense, but I seriously cannot for the life of me understand why people would choose canon over this. Maybe for the few inconsistencies here and there and the Vong shit but other than that the EU is fucking amazing. I am convinced that everyone that's into the new canon are either an old EU fan that got bored of the EU, or someone who got into Star Wars when Episode 7 was announced. I don't want to sound like an dick or anything, but it really feels like a situation similar to Silent Hill where you can tell who the newfags are because they're getting into all the shitty new stuff.

Lucas was pretty much a second unit director of RotJ too.

I like some parts of the EU, like the X-Wing series, but I can most definitely understand why the EU was thrown out and truly put in it's own separate universe. There was too many cooks in the kitchen and so many different stories with completely different characters about the same thing.

It's really sad. Back in the day Lucas was just trying to make a movie in accordance with his vision. But things kept getting in his way - producers telling him what to do, actors adding their own bits and pieces, limitations of special effects at the time. He probably felt that when the movie was done it was no longer his movie. In the end studio had the final say, telling him what he can and can't do, and he couldn't resist.

So with the prequels he was the one holding all the leashes, so no one else could. He thought he was bringing peace, freedom and stability to his filmmaking. But what he didn't see was that now he was merely telling others what they can and can't do. He was shoving shit on screen, blinded by his freedom, without thought, and no one could resist him. He would choke EU on a whim by canceling products and contradicting established lore just to prove his power.

No one was safe from his vision.

Luke may have been Lucas' self-insert, but Anakin was his true alter-ego, even if he never realized it himself.

This is the ultimate pottery of Star Wars.

Besides, after that, the scout gets surrounded by a superior number of rebels. What did you expect him to do? Some bullet time shit?

>>81598564
But Kylo isn't really a tortured anti-hero, much less so than Vader.

It's a /tv/ meme where they change movie titles to different languages to make them sound more patrician.

Literally the only good parts of the EU were the Old Republic material, the games, and maybe some of the New Jedi Order stuff.

Not to mention that Canon is still supported and is the universe in which all the new movies and media will be set. It's the only relevant version of Star Wars, you don't get to pick and choose.

>>81598652
Sheev is my sithfu.

>>81598540
Which is why he should've gotten more scenes instead of fucking Jar Jar. And Dooku SHOULD HAVE been in TPM as a good guy who has his doubts about the Order. That way he wouldn't have come out of fucking nowhere in AOTC.

>>81598688
True.

>>81598624
Come on, are you really arguing that the stormtroopers in ROTJ were competent? The stormies in ANH didn't kill Han because they were ordered to let the heroes escape. And yes, Star Wars is usually goofy, but there is a difference between making the villains cannon fodder and making them complete retards like in ROTJ.
I mean how were the rebels able to suprise that trooper at all? Why did the three other guards all leave their post to follow the ewok? It's because "the emperors best troops" were actually the worst in the entire saga.

>>81598603
Not necessary. Having him as a twat right off the bat would've propelled the story a bit more. It's either that or invent an actual story/personality for Maul or a new villain altogether, but I don't see why that's preferable to simply expanding on Dooku to make him actually interesting.

>>81598657
I'm just waiting for it to start getting interesting. For all the shit with the Old EU we got some pretty interesting stories about bounty hunters, Jedi and Sith fighting across the galaxy, nature of the Force, etc, etc. The nuEU is pretty boring so far.

>I have writers block and the experience stopped being fun a long time ago.
>the experience stopped being fun a long time ago.


The best thing to do is to take a breather and ask yourself why writing was fun for you in the first place. I've been there with the writers block or having been too busy with writing due to erratic schedules, but you must always have the reason as to why you're writing in the forefront of your mind at all times. You can love writing for friends or you can just love making the places in your mind a tangible thing.

The story you wrote started out great, it was descriptive and the world sounded like it was an interesting place. The best thing to do is pace yourself and not try and force 2000+ words out of yourself when you can only make 200 or 500 words happen.

>>81598747

>>81598564
No way this is real. Never heard anyone outside these boards say "OT purists".

>>81598298

Star Wars already exists as a complete set. The OT is forever.

Lucas liked the idea of imagining Star Wars as a documentary of a lost time, Rogue One captures some of that verisimilitude being more at the ground level.

>>81598762

I mean, the fact of the matter is that the "official" status of a Star Wars work has no actual bearing on its quality. Lots of the old EU is good, the only problem with it not being canon is that those stories will not be revisited again and can be blatantly overwritten by worse content. The flipside of that is that the good elements are available for reintegration while the bad ones no longer sully the universe. The works aren't affected by the quality of the setting; the opposite is true, which is why EU is bad but EU works can be fantastic, whereas nuCanon is a more consistent and less stupid setting, albeit less varied.

You're right, nuCanon is still very bland, but they've got quite a bit of material going after only a couple of years. It's a decent start.

>>81598683
Why would he need to be a good guy? Just put him in Maul's place as the immediate threat (with other significant alterations to the story). His interactions with Qui-Gon could provide the same insight as an actual downfall subplot in a lot less time. Either way he should've been in TPM, though.

They took it because it was a well established meme (because of ROTJ). I respect Abrams for making them competent again. Phasma was a huge disappointment though.

I don't agree with this. Writers always say "read a lot & write a lot." It can't always be fun. Sometimes it's boring .

Is he an idiot? Kylo Ren is not an anti hero. Han Solo would be one. Even Finn would probably qualify as an anti hero.

>>81598947
Because Lee is too old to fight, and Star Wars needs its fight scenes. Dooku and Maul should've worked together. Maul the brutal Sith Lord who carries out Sheev's orders, Dooku the figurehead manipulated by Sheev.

How was the First Order competent? They were just the same as the Empires forces. Sure, they massacred a village of unarmed civilians, but failed in everything else that was their mission objective. The FO sounds good on paper but, as usual, when the bad guys go against the main characters they get their asses handed to them.

Hopefully the Story Group will help maintain a more consistent level of quality and tone. Of course if the group is full of fuck ups it means everything will be consistently worse.

dont want to spoil but Asoka is actually alive. she is wrecked and devastated but alive. she will also get family and come back later in few years again. the rebellion leaders will keep her out of the Vaders way making him believe she is dead. its in the canon. she got "recovery time" off and then will run some rebel chapters in other areas of empire where vader doesn't show off.

>>81599185
She didn't figure out how to use the blaster on her first try, non-Mary Sue confirmed.

Everyone in the FO is a huge fuck up. Hux couldn't stop the Rebels from blowing up the fucking Planet.

Phasma didn't die for Dark Side like she was supposed to.

Fact: Obi-Wan is the best character in Clone Wars.

>>81599336
If he is, and he very well could be, it would be a smaller role than Mon Mothma's. I'd expect only an epilogue where he Leia is ordered to retrieve the plans and Obi-Wan.

Don't force yourself to write when you can't write, you just end up writing a mess of words you jumbled together to make a deadline you made for yourself that you won't even enjoy.

Write at the pace you feel comfortable with and work up to a gradually higher wordcount when you feel ready.

I had a retractable Qui-Gon's lightsaber with light up when I was a wee lad. The handle was oversized and the blade didn't fully come into it, one part was always outside. My friend had some weird not-quite lightsaber, with a handle like a flashlight, sort of like on the picture, and a yellow blade. We had duels a couple times, but were careful not to hit too hard not to break our sabers.
