The lesser Inquisitors probably weren't meant to actually fight trained Jedi. Ezra at their first meeting and a little beyond was probably all they were really intended to handle. For the most part they'd find and capture inexperienced force sensitives to bring into Project Harvester, or to kill.

The Grand Inquisitor on the other hand was a Jedi Protector, and more than likely has captured several Jedi knights and masters in the twenty or so years since the end of the Clone Wars.

In truth, they should have had an escalation of the force users. The lesser inquisitors give way to the Grand Inquisitor and then Vader shows up.
I mean do we really fear the weaker people when our hero's been shown to just fucking beat their boss?

That was in no way his fault.
They started making an animated show from scratch and only maybe little experience with making tv shows.
It doesn't help that the film was just four episodes stitched together.
But if you're going by that logic then yes, because stuff like the Umbara Arc could definitely hold up as a decent film.

Back to star wars vidya discussion.
Instead of taking risks and making weird and new concepts for star wars games, the joos play it safe and make no-fun-allowed games. Fucking assholes, they should let smaller companies try to make a star wars game, they have all the money in the world and won't try anything new. Imagine a semi-realistic star wars combat game focused on the gritty and ptsd inducing side of the star wars... wars

An adventure film can be made as family entertainment, what's your point? The OT was just as kid friendly as Rebels, and only marginally less advertised at kids.

Not enough EC material gets these dope fucking posters. I don't know about you guys but there is something about this style of poster that just gets me hyped the fuck up. It does a good job of making something feel important to Star Wars even if it might not be. Pic related is a good example but also look at Shadows of the Empire

If I had any sort of say at Disney, I'd waste some more money on making sure every EC book, video game, comic, etc get an official poster like this. They are just too dope. Imagine how cool one for something like the Vader comic would look. Or even a smaller scale book like Bloodlines

Reminder that Inquisitors were designed as Canaries to alert Vader to real Jedi, and that they were only intended to actually succeed against apprentices and nascent force sensitives.

Since Sheev and Vader weren't dumb enough to create people that might one day be a threat, to then they were trained wrong on purpose as a joke.

>>88908289
Them making her the leader of the mangos would really just be the final nail in the coffin of her ever being a good character. It just checks off all of the cookie-cutter boring character boxes on the list.

7 in the main crew: Hera, Kanan, Ezra, Sabine, Zeb, Chopper, Rex. All of them are good except Sabine, who is a painfully boring non-character with no real effect on anybody else, and who could be killed off without anybody, in universe or in real life, minding that much. We've long since written her off after the time she went with Hera to that wasted fuel station in the first season. We simply don't care what happens to her now, because the only place her character development has to go is up, or stay right in the boring place she is.

Personally I think she could have been salvaged by making her and Ezra get together, but that's two seasons too late for that. That ship has sailed

>>88908485
I don't.

I do agree with the other anon that making Sabine some kind of ruler over Mandalore is probably not going to make her interesting though.

hey I'm not autistic over ships, I'm just saying that the entire first season had Ezra with the hots for Sabine and that was never EVER explored. In season 2 and 3, we still see slight hints of feeling, that are definitely NOT reciprocated. Not because she's not interested, but because she's not a character. She's like a zombie going through the world on autopilot, incapable of responding to the stimuli of other characters. I really don't know what the writers are trying to do with her character because every episode she gets to herself for character development (which is about half the entire series) falls flat for her, even if it fleshes out the entire universe around her empty void of an existence.

There's nothing to explore., Ezra had a crush and the non-character pretty soundly dashed his hopes, pretty much from word one.

You are not trying hard enough.

>>88908485
If you mean why do people hate the old EU mangos even when they're no longer relevant, it's for same reason people still hate furries; a residual hate from a time when they and their fans were the most obnoxious faggots around.

If you're asking why people here hate TCW mangos, then I'd have to ask where you got that impression from, since their arcs were routinely good.

If you're asking why people hate Sabine, it's less hate and more frustration over her character going precisely nowhere in a series where every other member of the crew has seen impressive development from their rather simplistic origins

>>88908638
Generic and shit ranking.

Rankings in general are shit though. I can't rank the movies like that. Each of the movies shines in ways the others don't, I like them for different reasons. Except TFA, but lets not get into that.

Ezra is still trying as of the Skystrike Academy episode and the one with the green mist ghost possession, and possibly as of the new trailer. It's just that she's a non-character. She can't dash his hopes because that would require being a character.

Hating a remake of a movie does not mean you hate the original.

Also there was that hot leglock in the mando supercommandos episode between Ezra and Sabine, but yet again any potential for character development was wasted on what would otherwise be called a Mary Sue if she had any impact on other characters at all. Sabine has all the hallmarks of a mary sue oc yet somehow remains inoffensive. I can't really explain it. I actually like Rey better than her because at least Rey feels like a person, even if a bullshit overpowered one.

I'd say he'd be better classified as schizoid, rather than schizophrenic, given his actions at the start of season 3. Depending on how paranoid he might be he could be schizotypal.

So I've been playing KOTOR for the first time after hearing all the hubbub, and while it's not a bad game at all (even if it has aged horribly), am I the only one who finds it ironic how people gave TFA shit for being criminally derivative yet KOTOR is also the same? I mean, Taris is Alderaan (with upper Taris also being Coruscant), T3-M4 is R2, HK-47 is a murderous 3PO (and there are more 3PO-like protocol droids in the game too), Zaalbar is Chewbacca, Darth Malak is Darth Vader (bald cyborg Sith Lord), Vandar Tokare is Yoda, the Sith Empire is the Galactic Empire, the Star Forge is the Death Star (McGuffin artifacts the bad guys use), the Jedi get BTFO (not as badly as in before ANH but still). Hell, they've even got a sequence similar to the TIE Fighter attack on the Millennium Falcon as a gameplay feature.

Sheesh. I'm surprised they didn't give Calo Nord green Mandalorian armor, or at least a jetpack.

Imagine being Malak in that scene and having to be all like "damn, Bastila, you fuckin' important, all powerful with your meditation and horrific gameplay/story segregation syndrome. I would totally have you as an apprentice, both for your abilities and for the meditation." when all he really wants to do is fuck another Twi'lek dancer in his dressing room. Like seriously imagine having to be Malak and not only sit her in that chair while You flaunt your magnificent lightning in front of her, the in favorable lighting barely highlighting the pure dark side you're channeling and your glorious skin, and just stand there, Monologue after monologue, hour after hour, while you perfected that conversion. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous fucking visage but her haughty attitude as everyone tells her she's SO IMPORTANT and DAMN, BASTILA HAS POWERS LIKE *THAT*?? because they're not the ones who have to stand there and watch her mannish fucking gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been torturing nothing but a healthy diet of Jedi masters and mandalorians and later alleged spinning victims for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the Jedi temple. You've never even seen anything this fucking weak before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her dimpled stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it defiantly at you, smugly assured that believe for a second she can resist you, and to revel in her "powerful (for that is what she calls herself)" ability, the ability she bragged so hard about with Jedi trainers in the previous months. And then she won't Shut the fuck up, and you know you could kill every single person in this Solar system before Revan could put you down, but you stand there and endure, because you're fucking Malak. You're not going to lose your future battles over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

Thing is, Starkiller base feels very Not Star Wars to me. For example, how does the laser split when it comes out of the canon? How does it suck up stars? Why do they call that star a sun? How is it able to suck in a star that is 1000000 times bigger than a planet?

I really did not like Starkiller base. Especially since it took even fewer X-wings to take down something that is even bigger than the death star.

Well i think ultimately they would have finished it to use it like the first one, but as for RotJ it's more used as a trap.
They did make the rebels believe it was unoperational, so i'm pretty sure the unfinished appearance was part of the trap

I have no idea what any of those psychological conditions actually mean, I'm just saying he rapidly and constantly switches between Edgera, Ezra, and Kidra. It's the same struggle between light and dark/pains of war and attempts at normalcy that all other protagonists in the series have. He's just as much Luke or Leia or Han as he is Anakin.

>>88909902
the EU was a contradictory clusterfuck of mostly terrible stories and ideas with a few gems here and there but nowhere near enough to salvage the lot. The new canon ranges from mediocre to semi-decent in terms of non-video content, and pretty damn good with the new movies and shows, but what sets it apart from the old EU is that it's mostly consistent quality (no truly disastrous turds) and has almost none, if any, plot holes or retcon fuckups. The new canon under auspice of the Lucasfilm Story Group is considered to be "real" to "have happened" within the "history" of the Star Wars universe. The old EU is now considered "legends" i.e. bullshit, which could be made up in universe as stories to tell, basically like what star wars is to us in the real world.

>>88909957
None of it's ever going to be 100% consistent so don't worry about it. Rank badges are all over the place, for example and Pablo's noted before that lightsaber forms don't really match what's on-screen most of the time.

Main difference are;

>Creative team is planning head years in advance, and overseeing all media so that it fits together fluidly, to avoid the EU's telltale continuity problems.
>Canon has movies beyond what Lucas made
>Canon has tv media
>Canon has everything officially at an equal level of canon, whereas the EU was never canon.
>Canon has EA with an exclusive Vidya license meaning the EU had a higher quantity of more varied vidya

Story wise, off the top of my head;

>Everything post-RotJ is different except for the general idea that the Empire never quite died with Sheev
>Old Republic Era is mostly mythical and unexplored in Canon, but it's established to look much more ancient, whereas the EU had a more stagnant visual/tech progression.
>Canon is trying to emphasize Vader and Sheev as the pinnacle force wielders (excluding Celestials). This was not the case in the EU.
>Some EU material, due to the nature of how the EU was built, didn't gel well at all with the movies. Many creators didn't understand how the Force worked, for example.
>The Fett's have a huge history and trove of stories in the EU, from their Mandalorian heritage, to Boba's life after escaping the Sarlacc Pit.
>Canonically, they're not even Mandalorians, and Boba is to our knowledge, still in the pit.
>Speaking of Mandalorians, the idea of them all being OC donut steels is now scrapped in favor of Lucas's original concepts of them being militarized supercommandos.
>Shaak Ti is now actually dead, with a proper 100% canon death, rather than the 3-4 "deaths" she had in the EU.
>Rogue One is now the proper 100% canon explanation for the Death Star plans heist, rather than the 9001 explanations in the EU.

Pronouns.

>>88910062
The biggest probably is how the Death Star plans were gotten. Rogue One is the canon version of events, and is for the most part vastly better than every other version in the past EU (of which there were about a million). The Kyle Katarn one was sort of ok but quite silly honestly. Infinitely better than The Force Unleashed one or the junior novelization one.

>>88910062
Empire gets defeated for real only a year after Endor and that's that. FO rises to take their place 29 years later.
Boba Fett is currently "dead" for real.
No clones of Palpatine, he died for real.
Death Star plans were only stolen once by one group of people.
Vader didn't have secret apprentices.
Everything before TPM in Legends never happened, as the only pre-TPM thing we have currently is a flashback in the main SW comic about Yoda.

That isn't something unique to the Star Wars EU, it's just what happens when the number of stories told gets huge. By the time the Han Solo movie comes out Disney's canon will be in the exact same state, if not worse since a lot of the 'canon' stuff is just taken from legends but done worse.

>>88910120
Normally no, but Chuck Wendig is easily the most vile """"""""""author""""""""""" creating Star Wars content. The only unironic legitimate SJW in Star Wars and a giant one at that, who actually thinks Trump voters are the evil white racist empire. Thankfully his faggoty tweets about gay marriage are not in his terribly written books. I should say also that while the actual STORIES in his books aren't that bad, his writing style is as painful to read as Anthony "At Least You're Not" Burch.

>>88908373
>kinda

>>88910062
To answer this anon too>>88910111
The Old Republic is very different too. the Sith Empire destroyed the Republic and fractured the Jedi Order but they only did this once unlike in the EU which happened a few times. The Sith and Jedi used superweapons and ancient lightsabers with ancient style armor. And the galaxy was far less known then. Hypsersace was not as safe or effective.

But other then that, a lot of little stories and characters are wiped clean. I miss a great deal of content but I'm satisfied canon will get to EU expansion levels soon. It's only been a few years so far.

>>88910187
Even if we do end up with some inconsistencies, if the new canon never has to resort to creating a clone to explain why a character has two separate deaths, it would still have a leg up over thw old EU.

>>88910041
To add to your points:
>Darth Bane is still the creator of the Rule of Two but nothing beyond that is known about him.

>>88910120
>>88910086

It's a bit silly and not necessary, but it's not the end of the world.

I find it actually kind of funny that some aliens would want to be referred by their native pronouns, but the connotations that Wendig did it to appeal to his twitter followers is what makes it uncomfortable for readers. It would be ignored by fans, if Wendigs books were actually interesting.

Claudia Grey did similar stuff (hinting multiple genders with aliens. She also hinted to the idea of using body-swap tech to change genders), but the difference is her books were actually great reads, so nobody cared about any minor pandering she did. Her stuff was mostly using pre-existing canon info too. The body-swap tech has existed thanks to TCW, so she just made an offhand nod to it.

Wendig however, literally makes you read this foreign pronoun for an entire chapter. Again, would have been fun and quirky if you didn't get the impression that he literally did it for tumblr goodie points.

When they start pushing multiple genders and pronouns for human characters, then we can panic.

>>88910186
That's the weakest justification against it I've seen yet.

>>88910187
It's unique to the Star Wars EU when it consists of 40 years of hundreds of creators trying to one-up each other creations in the most ridiculous of fashions. There was ZERO coordination between one author or game dev or comic artist to the next, and even less respect between them. Need I remind you of the time Karen Traviss illegally killed off Timothy Zahn's creation Mara Jade because she couldn't stand somebody else's creation getting attention? And I say illegally because Mara Jade was a copyright of Zahn's and was utilized without his permission or even knowledge.

>>88909008

Yes. Study a language other than a gendered one and you'll see. For example Finnish only has a neutral 'he' and 'it'. It is your language you are butchering with those newwords, nothing else.

This is bullshit and you know it. why is it popular here to hate the EU and think everyone agrees with it? You get practical worship of old EU comic book and novels here. if the name Katarn appeared in Rebels next week you guys were sperg the fuck out

>>88910245

>>88910251

>>88909438
Middle management hell. He's the working class Imperial who gets very little recognition for his contributions because Sheev's aristocracy controlled everything. The Empire was thought to be for everyone but it turns out only those already in Sheev's circle reaped the benefits

>>88910274
People have different opinions my dude.

I'm not him. I personally think the EU had tons of good stuff, but a metric mountain of shit too. When the GOOD stuff is made canon, we will get excited, because the majority of us really did enjoy the EU.

But accepting the EU's problems and acknowledging how Canon is rectifying the mistakes of the past, is just being honest with ourselves.

>>88910264
Sate Pestage and Dooku, off the top of my head. Plus there's also Spar, a clone trooper who was made to impersonate Boba Fett as a way of explaining a lot of Boba's contradictory appearances. Cases where Boba is in two places at once or doesn't recognize a character that continuity says he already met are written off as actually being Spar pretending to be Boba.

>>88910264
There's at the very least Dark Empire's sheev clones and LUUKE from the Thrawn Trilogy plus numerous others.

>>88910283
I was under the impression he had initially planned to sue over it but never bothered. Oh well. It still shows off the shameless vindictive spite authors had for others' works that is the hallmark of the EU. Didn't Karen Traviss also kill off those cute force wielding Mormon girls from Courtship of Princess Leia?

>>88910311
please don't give him (you)s

I don't know much about EU Mandalorians but I remember a while back reading in one of these threads that a certain author wrote absolutely horrible, continuity-destroying Mandalorian books. An anon called it the Star Wars equivalent of Metroid: Other M (if you don't know about that, the short of it is that Other M brutally buttfucked canon and had an unbearably bad story and writing that spat in the face of the main character and her legacy). What were these stories and what made them so bad?

>>88909775
One has to admit the suspension of disbelief required for starkiller base is greater than for the death star.

I mean combining lasers can be done via a prism or even in thin air with our technology, so it still makes more sense to have a machine capable of combining lasers in space than a machine capable of shooting a magical laser with a mind of its own capable of dividing up and curving to select targets all on its own after having been fired.

Karen Traviss for one made Mandalorians a mary sue race of homosexual edgelords that were totally better than the black and white moral jedi in every way and totally beat the shit out of the republic all the time.

Personally I'm not bothered by thw improbable splitting laser that homes in on individual planets and more annoyed by the retarded "people can see the explosion across the galaxy because of hyperspace anomalies" bullshit.

>>88910339
The writer you are thinking of is Karen Traviss.

She is a very controversial writer because she had a particular distaste of the Jedi and their teachings, so in her books she made it a point to constantly wank about how great and awesome and powerful the Mandalorians are, and how they could beat the Jedi and shit.

She also helped (not single handedly) popularized the whole army of Boba Fett donut steels idea of the EU mando's

Also somebody correct me if I am wrong, but I remember reading about how she unceremoniously killed Mara Jade in a book without even telling her creator what was happening.

She also wrote a controversial blog post where she rambles about response from Jedi fans, and basically calls them horrible people for disagreeing with her.

Lastly, she ragequit the franchise when Filoni and Lucas ignored her shit when writing the Mandalorians in TCW, and proceeded to go ruin Halo next.

>>88910381
Both. There's at least one gay Mandalorian couple in Traviss's continuity, but it's done in a Wendig-esque smarmy tone because she wants you to look at Mandalorians and think "wow, what a progressive and inclusive society, Mandos truly are the best culture!"

>>88910381
Literally, she made a huge deal about how honorable it was for Mandalorians to get gay married like the Sacred Band of Thebes on steroids in space. She's a fat feminist yaoi fanfic writer and is partly responsible for Boba Fett's power creep though she had the decency not to make him a fudgepacker.

>>88910361
I honestly find it harder to believe that a person can survive being cut in half, falling down a pit, finding a space trash truck for some reason, getting to a trash dump planet and builting his own cybernetic legs than I do that a planet sized machine can blow up a couple of other planets.

>I mean combining lasers can be done via a prism or even in thin air with our technology
But there's no air, or anything out there. The lasers just meet and stop, which doesn't make sense, and then all of them turn to the same direction and go on their way.

For Starkiller's laser you can just say that it was always five beams to begin with, or however many there were I don't remember Star Wars movies put me to sleep after I see them the second time. And that the "homing" was just clever aim using the various gravity wells.

The point is if you're going to see Star Wars you should be leaving any sense of realism or practical at the door.

>>88910429
>Also somebody correct me if I am wrong, but I remember reading about how she unceremoniously killed Mara Jade in a book without even telling her creator what was happening.

Yes that's what happened, I made a post about it a bit ago.

Here's the wookieepedia article:
The decision to kill off Mara Jade Skywalker was made by Lucasfilm for the plot of the novel Legacy of the Force: Sacrifice. The author of Sacrifice, Karen Traviss, stated that it was her idea to have Jade Skywalker die and that she felt obligated to write the scene herself. Traviss further stated that she was a fan of the character and wanted the death of Mara Jade Skywalker to fulfill a larger purpose, and that writing the death scene was difficult for her. As she was writing Jade Skywalker, Traviss said that she wanted to emphasize the importance of Ben to the character, as well as her warrior spirit.[102] In response to Mara Jade Skywalker's death, Shannon McRandle, the model who has portrayed Mara Jade Skywalker on numerous occasions, has stated her displeasure with the events and particularly the cover of Sacrifice.[103] Also, when asked about the issue of Jade Skywalker's death in a writing workshop, Timothy Zahn expressed his displeasure with the decision to kill off the character in Sacrifice. In his comments, he stated that Del Rey not only failed to inform him of the death and he had not heard from them since, but he would still be willing to write another novel about the three Skywalkers.[104]

>>88910443

They didn't really make a big deal of it at all though

>>88910483
Yeah it's confirmed he died on Aldreaan, Leia talks about him a lot in Bloodline.

In fact the book opens with a statue of Bail being erected on Hosnian Prime in his honor.

>>88910483
>Did he die on Alderman?
the last thing we know about him doing is going back to City Council Member.
So it's assumed he was on the planet when it blew the fuck up.

Yoda in season 6 of TCW has a vision of Shaak Ti dying from Anakin stabbing her in the back.

It was a nod to the second deleted death scene she had in RotS (the first being stabbed by Greivous).

It was dubious for a while, because it was just a vision/reference to a deleted scene, but Pablo said last year on twitter that they're going to stick with that for her death.

>>88910636
Same anon you replied to, and I agree too. The Vong only exist because people got sick of the whole Moff Warlord/Generic Sith Conqueror threat in every other post-ROTJ thing and wanted something "new and different".

SW can only really work in two extremes: Good and memorable, or absolute fucking shit.

>…insiders tell The Hollywood Reporter that at least two key scenes are planned for Episode VIII (Dec. 15) and Episode IX (2019): a Leia reunion with Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) and a confrontation with Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), her son who killed Harrison Ford’s Han Solo in 2015’s The Force Awakens.

> Another solution is to use CGI effects; a reduced role could mean Leia would only appear in glimpses. “Rogue One is the road map,” says one Star Wars source, referring to Lucasfilm resurrecting Peter Cushing and making Fisher young again in the current hit.

> “I have no doubt, given some of the recent work I’ve seen, there are filmmakers who will be willing to take up the challenge,” says Michael Fink, an Oscar-winning VFX supervisor who teaches at USC. But, “so far, we have seen moments of success but not full performances.” He says there’s also ethics to weigh: “Should we create additional roles for Princess Leia? I don’t think so.”

As far as I know, he NEVER actually said we wouldn't see Obi-Wan.

He was asked if the show characters would cross paths with Luke and Obi-Wan on Tatooine, and explains that no, Luke's adventure shouldn't start until ANH.

He sneakily worked around the question like the madman he is. I don't recall him ever saying we wouldn't see Obi-Wan again.

HOWEVER, he has admitted in the past that he isn't beyond lying, even just to mess with fans. Remember that these guys are always 2-3 years ahead of us, so sometimes they simply have to avoid some truths to preserve some secrets. It's almost never a case of changing his mind.

>>88910811
I'd rather they just write her out and find another way to do the story.

Though I'm annoyed that this implies Luke and Leia don't meet in 8.

As shameless and undignified as it is I really hope they use her as much as possible in 8 and 9 in order to get it our of their systems and give a proper conclusion to the character and trlogy and then never stoop to such depths again.

>>88910876

>>88910905
nah they'll still focus test new faces to see if they're marketable, I mean who expected Chris Pratt and Chris Evans to be so popular now after their lackluster start in the industry? Anybody that doesn't focus test well only gets to stay in the industry as a puppet model for a CGI face.

>>88910979
not as far as the LSG is concerned

I liked her and all, but it's better this way

>>88910701
Her approach is identical to everything she writes and she has a cadre of blind fans, so it's possible to manipulate her to your advantage, depending on what you're looking for.
She ALWAYS picks a superficial faction and plays them up as the be all end all best in the series (Mandalorians, ONI, Spartan IVs, etc), always shits on whatever was previously the top dog (Jedi/Sith, Spartan IIs, Dr Halsey, etc) and does it with the grace and subtlety of a brick.

343, for example, hired her because they wanted a changing of the guard in their fan base, and she's the absolute best person to alienate and drive off the people that liked the old material and create a tribalistic remainder to lap up the rest.

Being Maul is suffering

>>88911082
Rey Skywalker is probably the case, though. They need to find a Mara replacement.

>>88911114
It'd be better if Obiwan took pity on him and put him out of his misery Of Mice and Men style.

>>88911111
Let's indeed.
Disney will never do alien/human hybrids like that... Gotta have shifty US politics in this somehow.
>would not mind a black woman either, if it wasn't for that odd agenda they have

>>88911123
I used to think she'd be Luke's daughter, but I also get the feeling she and Kylo will end up together. Sure, incest is a Skywalker tradition but I don't think they'd go through with that if they are actual cousins.

>>88911166
I wouldnt mind a black mara jade analogue, even though I do mind explicit agenda pushing, but I'm pretty sure those kids in the clone deserter episode are twilek-human hybrids. There was also the time in TCW during the Ahsoka trial arc that the unwitting suicide bomber alien was vastly different from his human girlfriend.

>>88911114
I honestly hope Maul realizes both he and Kenobi lost everything and so all they do is have a quiet chat after some posturing.

It would be a nice shake up from the Ahsoka/Vader duel.

>>88911212
I actually meant that hybrids won't be in lead roles, but didn't state it. My bad. Disney even avoids aliens, despite Chewie.

>>88911140
>>88911240
I just want him to give Maul a dressing down over the fact that Maul wasted over half his life seething in impotent Rage, while Obi Wan actually got over his issues and moved on.

Oh yeah that pissed me off about Rogue One's diversity cast.

Come on Anon, at least produce a two-seater.

Perhaps I should've specified I meant the looks more than the role itself. The swing-wings of the U-Wing were pretty neat for that, but that's about it for that one.

>Widow
Yeah, I was aware it's basically that. But there's not much else in the largely spaced, twin engine department outside the Y-Wing.

Did the ARCs get any love in TCW?

So was the Imperial character in the Rebels trailer Yularen, Pellaeon or somebody else?

If Maul killed Padme in front of Anakin like he did Satine, how hard would Anakin have chimped out?

>>88911474
Berserk rage and would have probably gotten himself killed.

>>88911459
Almost certainly Yularen because he's an ISB colonel and shows up on the Death Star in ANH.

>>88911457
U-wing = UH-1 Huey helicopter "it aint sheev starts playing"
Y-wing = F-4E Phantom II
A-wing = F-16 Falcon

According to one TCW reference book they're produced by Slayn and Korpil which also did the B-wings, but I have no idea if that's canon any more.

>“I think, maybe this is such a general answer but you know, humanity. Even though it’s very much a blockbuster movie, there was no taking that for granted and that we were forced to be general. There was a lot of plot points that we knew were operating in the first one that we get to explain more in the second one to make both of them make sense. But they do kind of feel socially active to me, and George Lucas originally — a lot of Star Wars was in response to Vietnam and a lot of what I remember talking about with JJ and Rian was this idea of terrorism, and two sides being morally justified to behave however they wanted to to get whatever they thought was absolutely correct.”

We did the 'morally ambiguous' thing already. WAY the fuck better than anything the movies could hope to vomit up at this point. And George had it declare non-canon because he was butthurt that an underfunded and overworked studio of nobodies did his universe better than he did. And Disney, who's even more evil than George, wants to keep the franchise accessible to kids.

So yeah, I'm calling bullshit on any kind of 'moral ambiguity' statements.

Then comes the night.

Honestly, kotor 2 supported the prequels, and people thinking it was about neutrality missed the point.

The whole point was about thinking for yourself and not following dogma, be it light or dark aligned, and that rigid thinking was a death knell.
It pretty much nailed why Sheev was able to win, and how the Jedi made sure he couldn't help but succeed.

The Jedi Masters refused to acknowledge their failings, and so died when their arrogance came back to bite them.
Nihlus and Sion thought they were untouchable due to their powers, and so died when they faced someone who could circumvent them.
Revan and the Exile were both distinguished by their ability to adapt, and considered the most dangerous and powerful Jedi/Sith of the age.

Then, four thousand years later.
The Jedi's rigid standards on emotion caused Anakin directly to fall, leading to the death of their order.
Sheev's ability to roll with the changing balances of power was far more dangerous than his prodigious power with the force.
Sheev thought there was no way anyone could break his conditioning of vader, and so he died.

Maybe. That's the most canon answer I can give. Lucas borrows from myriad religions for his themes so it's impossible for us to say until he or LSG say otherwise. Personally, being Christian, I'd prefer it if he did and that the Force afterlife had a heaven for everybody, not just jedi, and that Force Ghosts is just a benefit that people strong with the Force get.
