Eh, why do people like Rey?

Luke was a great pilot because he spent all of his free time FLYING. Rey is a great pilot... because she used a simulator and has only flown once in her life.

Yeah, I know, the Force and all but that sort of thing really doesn't endear you to the character.

>>84663224
She's a strong woman who need no man! Girls need to be able to project themselves on a main character too!

Even if she's really boring, poorly written and have no flaws.

>>84663224

Because I still found the character and her arc entertaining despite being overpowered.

It's classic pulp storytelling, I can handle the character being hyper-competent if they still work within the context of the narrative. I still, enjoyed John Carter despite him being a gigantic Gary Stu because he worked as the hero in the context of the story.

I didn't dislike Anakin in the Prequels because he was a Gary Stu, I disliked him because Jake Lloyd was a block of wood and Hayden was trying to do his best James Dean impression, which consisted of 2 films of whining about his mom or his girlfriend and pouting.

It all comes down to execution. I liked Rey.

>>84662817
Shit, I might actually go see it then.

>>84662817
I don't believe you. I respect your opinion, but I don't believe you.

>>84663302

Anakin wasn't a gary stu in the prequels, though. He literally screwed up every time because of his lack of focus.

>>84663452

> He literally screwed up every time because of his lack of focus.

Just because the movie kept saying that doesn't mean it was shown on-screen.

>>84663302
>anakin
>gary stu

But he does not save the day, and NEVER is in the good graces of his superiors (the jedi council), and he is constantly told to stop fucking up by Obi-wan.

>>84663471

He went to rescue his master, and was captured. He didn't listen to Obi-wan and got struck with force lightning. And then was soundly defeated and had his arm cut off and needed to be saved by Yoda.

>>84663224
Not all people like storytelling. Even fan fiction makes money nowadays.

>>84663471

You mean the movie in which Anankin fails to rescue his mother, fails to rescue his master, gets hit with force lighning, and finally gets beaten in a duel and de-armed?

Anakin is not a Gary Stu. He fails, a lot, despite his talents.

Rey doesn't fail at anything in TFA.

>>84663452

>gets (rightfully) angry about the council's treatment of him but reacts to it like a child and lets it cloud his mind

>pushes padme away with his assholery
>gets obliterated by Obi-wan due to his overconfidence

Don't confuse being extremely competent (as he should, he's a monster when it comes to the Force) to not making mistakes. He makes plenty of them.

Rey has incredible power and this never backfires on her.

Anakin has incredible power and this is treated realistically, with him letting it go to his head and thinking he's better than everyone.

you now realize that rey would have escaped starkiller base without finn or han coming.

>>84663528
This is why I love Anakin. He's probably the most human character in all of Star Wars.

>>84663528

my post was agreeing with you, my man.

>>84663564
Yep, he's actually treated like a realistic ~20 year old who's incredible power doesn't prevent him from doing stupid stuff with that power. Even in the late clone wars episodes he's still fucking up at times, especially the Rush Clovis arcs.

Rey is hyper competent and has no draw backs, but even worse, there's nothing really interesting about her.

Anakin has competence, but faults to come along with that competence and an interesting characterization.

>>84663582

To see if/how different things are compared to how it was during the Republic and some foreshadowing of the senate's dismantling.

And of course some god-tier Emperor Sheev sleeving the Senate.

No, not that look. He looks fine. I just mean introducing him with basically no backstory so he's basically not even present as a Sith.

Seriously, go to his wiki page. It is padded to hell and back to hide the fact the only thing we know about this dude is he created the Rule of Two. The Legacy section is longer than the actual backstory section.

>>84664382
>It is padded to hell and back to hide the fact the only thing we know about this dude is he created the Rule of Two.

Well, all we got was what was from Yoda's perspective. It's only logical that he wouldn't know everything about Bane other than that he founded the Rule of Two. Maybe, if we're lucky, we'll get a book or something from Sidious' perspective, and maybe it'll shed some light on his predecessors.

So 7 sucked.
Was it in development hell too long or what?

>>84664453
>Was it in development hell too long or what?

Opposite. It's production was rushed as hell. And it detracted heavily from what Lucas had written it to be.

>>84664475
Rushed? Was it not in development for years? Why would you rush the first part of a trilogy that's entire purpose was setting up the rest of the franchise?

>>84664492
To make a quick buck probably.

Even if it was rushed, it was an alright movie, I thought.

From conception to finished product and release? About a year and a couple months, give or take. Every one of the prequels respectively took three years to make. That's why TFA sucked (among a few other big reasons). They didn't take their time with it to make the best film possible like what Lucas did.

They wouldn't have used droids in the first place, ya dingus. The Republic wanted humans from the start.

>Come on now, I think you're giving him a bit too much credit

I'm not. He literally took his time to do what he could, and gave as much time for what everyone else needed to do. The writing may have been not the best, but everything else in the prequels were top notch for the time. George actually cared about what he was doing and wanted to tell a story simply for the sake of entertaining people. He wasn't in it for the money. Disney is. that's why they're pumping out a new Star Wars movie (or more if you count the Anthology flicks) every year. If Disney actually respected the franchise they'd take their fucking time with it.

The Republic at least would be hesitant and it would probably go back to a vote. But I meant more they would not choose droids ever over humans if they were just given a choice without anything having been made.

Our own galaxy is estimated to have from 100 to 400 billion stars in it. (It's really hard to get an accurate count) Even if only a fraction of those meets all the conditions, we're talking a mind-boggling number of systems involved in the Republic/Empire.

I never decided that. We did a Strawpoll, and the vast majority voted that.

We even did a second Strawpoll a while later because a couple people said it shouldn't have a perfect score, and again, the overwhelming majority gave it a 10/10.

I guess people are willing to overlook some of the earlier stuff because of just how much high quality stuff TCW gave us. I mean, there was 100+ episodes, it's perfectly understandable that someone who enjoyed the vast majority of it would vote 10/10. Pretty much everybody in this thread considers it essential Star Wars viewing.

The Republic did. The Separatists didn't. Their worlds built those droids and ships, they ddin't contract out to third parties because the third parties were Separatist members..

>>84665381
That's technically true. Though I also meant that for the most part there were no actual citizens of either side participating in the war. The Republic used a clone army manufactured specifically for this conflict and the Separatists used a droid army. Both sides spent resources creating and funding their armies/war efforts but hardly needed to spend the actual lives of their citizenry.
I just thought it was kind of a strange and funny way to make the conflict more palatable for a wider audience by having the two factions fight with fabricated armies

So I just caught up on the comics. What do you guys think about the new Imperial Commandos? (They are supposed to be the equivalent of IC's, right?)

I thought they were damn awesome, and as soon as I saw the wall-running Jetpack thingy, I realized how much potential they have for some really fun Vidya. (Which of course means, never ever, because no fun allowed at EA's Star Wars division)

>>84665299
Literally everybody except Sheev.

>>84665360
Yeah, I share that sentiment. Even "Bombad Jedi", Jar Jar's solo episode which is often referred to as the worst of TCW, is pretty fun IMO, and a nice brief change of pace from the really good grittier stuff that Season, like the Ryloth/Kit Fisto/Cad Bane episodes.

>>84665460
In that case, you're right. With the notable exceptions of Umbara and Geonosis, the Separatists pretty much only fielded machines while their actual citizenry sat out the fighting. I do remember a lot of the Separatists bitching about how Dooku was running the war seemed to be griefing more about the profit losses and costs in monetary terms as opposed to lives lost like how Padme and the "stop the war" movement in the Republic Senate harped on the suffering of people and money was only ever a factor when it came to clone production costs.

>>84665473
>Imperial Commandos
I feel there are too many of them. Some could be easily combined together.

>>84664535
Why would it be fucked if they want to make money? People won't watch if each film gets worse. FFS, look at Sony's blundering.

Story =/= presentation
Better directing and acting would have made critics laud him for not rehashing the OT and going in new directions.
Now we have exactly that problem, while the directing and acting is better. Rogue One needs to hit it out of the ballpark to show the audience SW can move on from the main saga blueprint.

Why did they turn him into a Vader clone? I know they had his Orbalisk armor as a concept so why not go with that? It's his most well know look.

It didn't suck. It wasn't a masterpiece but normies ate it up.

>>84665774
It's an anthropomorphic representation of Bane's spirit, he may have looked nothing like that while alive; it may have even been only how Yoda imagined he might have looked since Bane died before Yoda was born. There's literally more reason to gripe about Thrawn's design than Bane's.

The same reason why they've already announced a bunch of spin offs despite not a single has been released yet and them releasing Rebels hence why the first season only had roughly 13 episodes.

If you think about it, every other Star Wars film had 3 years inbetween. TFA only had it's director announced just less than 2 years before release. It's bad enough only giving them that amount of time for one film but they had to come up with nearly everything for the whole trilogy during that time. Probably explains why they chose to go with copying the OT route last minute even though their concept art looked like they were going a different direction.

>>84666597

>>84666779
Well, she's a Nightsister, and I'm pretty sure a few of them did have hair, so they can definitely grow it

As for why she kept it shaved, idk, maybe she figured being bald made her look more threatening or something

Not exactly a disaster everyone expected. Audience score reflect ht quality pretty accurately.

Can one of the Twitter anons ask a question to Pablo for me? Maybe one of you could answer though.

What is the canon stance on Vader's movement? LOTS, ESB, ROTJ and the comics imply he's swift and fast but stiff but Rebels has him moving like ANH. I thought ANH got a pass because of Alex doing his own stunts.

>>84667185
In Lords of the Sith, it's explained that with extreme focus, Vader can use Force Speed.

However, for the most part, Vader doesn't NEED to be fast. Almost all the Jedi are gone, and he can Force Choke a bitch a mile away.

So, as simple as it sounds, he is fast when he needs to be, and thus it's completely up to the writer to do whatever they feel necessary in the given scenario/situation.

Rebel's Vader fight with Ahsoka is probably the best look at his peak Lightsaber Dueling abilities, which were still very strong. A lot of powerful thrusts designed to simply overpower his enemy, not dissimilar to Anakin Skywalker. Almost as f they're the same person...

>>84667366

People's opinions change over time. I can almost guarantee that the scores will change after the trilogy is finished.

It's literally made for normies. It doesn't take much to understand it because there isn't a lot to understand to begin with. Star Wars is an exemplary popcorn flick, it's story - a 100% by the book tale of good vs evil (IN SPACE!) and pretending otherwise is nothing short of pretencious.

They should make Chewie or R2 say "I have a bad feeling about this" in Episode VIII. And once enough fans have angrily tweeted about it the writers come out and reveal the truth.

>>84667635
How do you know they haven't said it already in their normal languages?

>>84667609
That's actually a big reason why I think the prequels got the hate they got; cause they tried to deviate from that.

I mean they didn't do it perfectly, but still the films at least TRIED to have some semblance of depth and Shakespearean tragedy.

The Tatooine interlude from Life Debt was much more than I was expecting it to be:

>Malakili goes into depression at losing his rancor
>Jabba's Palace is basically empty less than a year after Jabba died. No Hutt came in to reclaim it for themselves.
>Some random human took Boba's armor for his own use in protecting "Freetown" from crime syndicates
>He and his friend find Malakili wandering the desert in his depression, recruiting him to the town to help raise a young Hutt to use as a puppet for Jabba's Palace
Did they finally remember Rotta the Hutt?

>I was under some sort of impression that her being a Nightsister was more of a cultural thing and not an ethnic thing.

Not anymore. It's actually an ethnic and gender thing.

>Is she not Rattataki?

No, she's Dathomiri.

>I know she's from Dathomir but they also have Zabrak so I thought multiple races must belong to that culture.

They don't. And technically, they don't have Zabraks either. The Dathomiri as a whole are a mix of Humans and Zabraks over generations to a point where they're basically their own species (though the different genders take different traits). So yeah, Ventress and Darth Maul are the same species now.

That's because Jar Jar is the key to everything. Everything happened because Jar Jar gave emergency powers to the Chancellor and that started it all. A character that was the least expected to cause the fall of the Jedi and the rise of the Empire. No wonder normies couldn't pick it up.

Wait why is IJ having aliens in it a bad thing? i never got that. The first three films were based on adventure serials of the 30s, but the 4th one is based in the fifties where aliens took over that paranormal role. It makes perfect sense that there would be aliens. That is such a non-complaint its literally ridiculous. Sure, complain about the fridge scene (it is stupid), but aliens makes no sense to complain about.

Aliens are out of place in a series where each previous installment concentrated on supernatural.

Agreed. Though let's not forget that he was trained to be a Sith Lord. That shit can't be pleasant. Especially if it happened to him as a kid (which I think is the case, otherwise you'd think he had been brought to the Jedi Temple instead).

It's just so quintessential Lucas that he's on record as having written up this massive document, citing professionals, that it is entirely possible, however unlikely, to survive being blown clear of a nuclear blast in a lead lined fridge.

If I recall correctly even Spielberg tried to talk him out of it. It doesn't matter what you can cite showing it's possible if people still have a hard time believing it. Then like a bro Spielberg tried to take the blame.

B. Yes, they're worth a read. Before the EU wipe, easily one the best comic series. Good characters, funny dialogue, and despite being tied into KOTOR they do their own thing too. If you like KOTOR it's even better because it sheds light onto the Revanchist and his crew, especially Malak. If you felt he was one dimensional in KOTOR, this explains him well.

They've both lost a number of steps creatively speaking, but I can still respect them as men.

>RLM "yes men" meme

It really needs to be put to rest.

>>84671643
>RLM

Explain

>>84669816
What make you think they won't

Lucasfilm has an entire animation studio ready and waiting

>>84671643
It's not a meme if it's truth. Lucas removed everyone that ever talked back to him and did so in so public a manner that when he called around looking for directors for episode 1, no one wanted anything to do with him because "job security" around that autist is a myth.

>>84671679
Red Letter Media the place where Plinkett comes from. The popular opinion from the Plinkett reviews is that Lucas was surrounded by yes men. The sad part is he took behind the scenes footage completely out of context to justify his reviews and criticisms. You got people on the internet using them as "proof".

TPM was a very ambitious and massive project. The crew is extremely excited and got a bit over extended. They admit this may have ill effects on the movie but people took their enthusiasm as being controlled by Lucas.

>>84671563
>>84671643
Lucas did have "yes men", but it's not as overblown as people (cough-RLM-cough) have made out.

There was tons of people who worked with him, and agreed with all his decisions, but;

A) Most of them have seen all of Lucas's great movies and at that point believed he could do no wrong (Especially during TPM)

B) Genuinely agreed with most of his ideas. These people worked at Lucasfilm and obviously had a very strong understanding of what Lucas was aiming for.

There is also the semi-common knowledge that Lucas DID go to several other people for help, only to be turned down because they believed he would do great.

And according to Filoni, Lucas will absolutely listen to you if you challenge his ideas, and Filoni got to have his way plenty of times during TCW. So it's possible that if there WAS any doubt in Lucas from his staff, they may have just been intimidated by him. But I don't believe that was a big problem, I think most people were just happy with what Lucas was aiming for and believed it was going great. (Yeah, I know about the clip of the guy looking worried towards the camera, but it was only because he realized Lucas was scribbling on the storyboard with the wrong marker. Lucas numerously realizes that later in the clip, so that guy's "reaction" is often used out of context. I think RLM popularized that.)

>>84671886
Spielberg did in fact help with some sequences in RotS.

I just feel like it was the only scene in the entire movie that had actual tension. Especially with the new kid taking over as the lead role. Thought for a second that it was legit the end of Indy.

I did find the Fridge thing a bit eye-rolling initially, but I sort of forgave it. And then when I found out Lucas put in the effort to conclude that surviving that way was actually possible, it sort of re-validated that the scene was as good as I remembered it.

I was much more upset at the ayy lmao at the end.

Petitioning Disney to just finish it. They're not going to take fan money for anything, nor do they need it. You just need to convince the execs that its something you'd like to see. If successful, you'll get it 10 years from now.

I wonder what, if anything, happened to him when Order 66 went out. Like, would a clone have to receive the transmission from Palpatine issuing the order for it to trigger, or is it just automatic since it's programmed in?

Sheev can't have ordered ten thousand different commanders to kill the Jedi. He probably just did only the High Council personally.

Cut just had a headache. He didn't left his family to kill Jedi... r-right?

It's a combination of factors including being the big boss of Lucasfilm, a certain degree of fan worship from employees, some sycophantism I'm sure, and he obviously doesn't always listen to those people who do tell him no, up to and including his own friends, which leads to Nuke the Fridge.

Not even sure why people think it is a meme, this is hardly something that just happens to just Lucas.

Happy endings are real.

>>84673940
My headcanon is that the clones were built in a way where if Sheev were to activate one of the clone commanders serving with the Jedi council it would then activate a portion of the clones wave after wave. Kind of explains why he only gives Cody the order but Obi-Wan's entire squadron begins firing at him for example.

>Rey doesn't fail at anything in TFA

She accidentally opened the doors on Han and Chewie's ship and released the monsters that endangered everyone's lives, almost getting Finn killed.
Plus maybe it was just me but her rejecting Luke's lightsaber and running away came across a bit... irresponsible? She was just scolding Finn for abandoning their epic space adventure and the minute she was told to do something of seeming importance that spooked her a bit she wanted to call it quits and ran away.

Unlike Anakin, as the anon explained, no-one really calls Rey out on her mistakes though, which only helped contribute to her Mary-Su-ish portrayal. I too have to admit that as far as overpowered characters go, Rey didn't particularly bug me. I liked her chemistry with the other characters too much, especially with Finn.

>>84674616

those monsters saved han and chewie from being killed.

and rejecting luke's lightsaber and running away is not irresponsible, her goal was simply to get off her planet, nothing more.

she was angry that her first friend had lied to her, more than anything.

you are really reaching. she's a mary sue.

>>84674616
>She accidentally opened the doors on Han and Chewie's ship and released the monsters that endangered everyone's lives, almost getting Finn killed.
So she... almost made a mistake with real consequences. Wow.

>>84674616
I don't think I'd call it irresponsible. She lived her whole life with this certainty her family would return for her, even though as Maz pointed out in her heart she already knew it was true. She was admonishing Finn for abandoning something she thought he'd already committed to as the Resistance Fighter it turned out he never was, but Rey kept trying to get back to Jakku repeatedly since leaving the place. She was being consistent to what she thought was important.

Just being handed a sword and told that Destiny has shit it wants you to do, well, people are free to be a bit intimidated and do the, "I didn't sign up for this!" bit. I mean WE the audience knows she's making a huge mistake. Maz's little exasperated sigh was kind of cute, though.

>>84674763
Tell that to poor Finn's ass. You have no idea what that rathtar did to him while dragging him alone. They're plenty fast, fast enough for orifice invasion on the go.

>>84674489
Filoni approved that? Nice.

>>84674879

>>84674489
>no-one really calls Rey out on her mistakes though
That and none of it really has any consequences.
And yeah, you can see she "messes up" a few times, but just minutes after she's solved it, all by herself.

>Released the Rathtars
They dealt with the pirates and she later saved Finn by herself.
>Ran from the Saber and got kidnapped
She single handily escapes the Starkiller base.

>>84675023
But Rey didn't fuck Quinlan Vos..D-did she?

>>84674848

WEDGE BITCH

>>84675023
>She single handily escapes the Starkiller base.
Hardly escaped the base. She ran into her friends while in the base, after all. She got out of Kylo Ren's nobody-expects-the-spanish-massage-chair with help from the Force. The base was on high alert and Kylo Ren had the hangers locked down and guarded. So all Rey had to do to finish escaping on her own was find a ship that wasn't locked down, managed to open the hanger doors, manage not to get shot down by base defenses, manage to not get shot down by scrambled TIEs, hope that her ship even has a hyperdrive, and also somehow know that there is a planetary defense shield that keeps unauthorized ships from passing at anything less than hyperspace.

But yeah she was mostly scot-free, sure.

Also nobody criticized her? Not like Maz looked happy about her running off, which Forced Maz to rely on Finn delivering the saber after Rey flipped off destiny.

You're mistaking things still working out for there actually being no problems in the first place. And it isn't like things really worked out. Han is dead, Finn is in a coma, and Luke, well, he's hopefully not crazy. Or evil.

>>84675103

>>84675642
Some of the news sites are speculation the opposite, that Celebration was a little more bare bones this year than in previous years because they were holding back some stuff for SDCC.

I know at least the toy stuff is being saved for SDCC, don't know about any Rebels/movies stuff. I'd guess comics might have something new since there was basically nothing at the comics panel last weekend.

>>84675571

Yeah, comic news seems likely enough I guess. Maybe the Rogue One trailer we never saw, if there's a panel for that.

>>84675725
Poe wasn't a main focus character like Rey.

>>84675719
Technically they did show a new Rogue One trailer at Celebration... though for some bizarre reason didn't post it online anywhere afterward and even the buzz that the trailer would be shown on that ABC special turned out to be false. It wasn't a particularly great trailer either.

I'd hope they have one ready for SDCC and officially unveil it to the non-Celebration public then, but if they do I know it'll just be the Celebration trailer again, which doesn't have a whole lot of meat in it.

To be fair, Poe's failure to resist Kylo was the reason the First Order knew to look for BB-8, and then he crash lands and completely fails in his mission to retrieve BB-8 and the map pieces and has to have his new stormtrooper buddy, some scavenger, and Han Solo do the job for him. Like he literally just woke up on Jakku and fucked right off.

I think Poe's problem isn't so much that he's overpowered but that there's nothing really compelling about him as a character. He's a hotshot ace pilot in a franchise that's filled to the brim with those, and there isn't anything that really makes him noteworthy as anything beyond "hotshot ace pilot."
