We've already seen the new canon Mara Jade.

>>89029047
I just seriously tried to choke my monitor.

Can anyone here confirm if the lightsaber forms from the EU/games are canon since the exclusion of all of the old EU material? Or if there are still forms at all and if so, do we know if they changed them?

>>89029091
Pls no

>>89029100
>trying to force choke someone IRL over the internet

>>89029091
But that is clearly a lesbian
>>89029109
Gone i think, shame i liked the forms

>>89029053
shut up cassian, you should have told her that when you were both alive

>>89029109
The forms are still canon and they're mostly the same. I think the only major difference is that vaapad doesn't have that stupid "you have to tap into the dark side!" aspect to it.

>>89029150
Didn't the first Inquisitor in Rebels say something about Kanan using a particular form too much or something in their first fight?

>>89029150
That's okay, Luke is gay now anyway.

>>89029162
Where has all the forms been mentioned? I know we've had a few, at least, most referenced being Form III.

>>89029152
where are the lewds of Jyn and Cassian?

>>89029182
i thought luke is old

>>89029152
As they were hugging right before the end, Cassian whispered to her I wish I had fucked Bodhi
And she whispered Me too

>>89029109
They're still a thing. Vader and Inky make mention how much Kanan uses Form III

>>89029198
Sometimes he is, sometimes he isn't. Depends on the movie you're watching.

Does anyone have a brief description of the lightsaber forms and what makes them different? I never read EU stuff and only saw them in video games.

Also, did Jedi only master/specialize in one form?

>>89029216
really made me think

>>89029182
Aanakin's training holocron mentions IV or V. So it's safe to assume the majority of them are still a thing.

would tying shock batons together to make shock-nunchuks be possible?

What ABOUT the droid attack on the Wookies?

If 3 Y-Wings are enough to disable a Star Destroyer, what's the point in building anything else?

>only a Sith deals in absolutes
what did Obi Wan mean by this?

>>89029258
All it takes is one ship that has 3 Y-wing's worth of ion bomb dispensers. The point wasn't the Y-wings themselves, but the weapon that they used.

>>89029229
This is what Yoda meant when he said, "...things you will see. Other places. The future…the past. Old friends long gone.”

Every time you watch you're personally using the Force. Despecialized is sadly the Dark Side since they fucked up the brightness.

>>89029258
because it took destroying the shields with X-wings, and heavy losses, before they could deliver their payload. not to mention that the rebels did not have a way to press home the advantage until Raddus had some quick thinking

WW2, which is what space combat in SW is like, even a single direct hit by a torpedo or bomb was a big deal

also narrative speaking, there is not much point in showing all the torps that were stopped by the shield, only the ones that had an effect

>>89029340
It'll be curious to see more about the ion bombs. The Alliance may not have many and I won't be too surprised if we find out a certain band of Rebels helps find those too to equip Gold Squadron. Wouldn't be the first time they've obtained munitions for them.

I have only seen S1 and some of S2 of Rebels so far, but I'm enjoying it. I heard that Wedge appears in later seasons, is this true?
Do we finally get to see some cool starfighter pilot action?
And do we ever get any dangerous TIE pilots/aces? I always thought that would make an interesting recurring villain.

Star Wars lore is going to get completely fucked by Episode 8 if the leaks about the force are true

Why does /co/ have so many aruetiise plebs?

>>89029258
You build x-ray wings to protect the y-wing. And that's about it. Star wars has a pretty clear case of fighter superiority

>>89029395
>about the force
What was in said leaks?

>>89029340
The Y-Wing is an old ass ship by the time of the Rebellion. That's the point I'm trying to make. It wasn't some experimental gunship that fires a fuck-off amount of torpedos, just three junkers that took down a ship of the line.

>>89029368
If the shields were down then why bother with the ion torpedoes? Just fire a single shot at the bridge and kill everyone there.

>>89029395
Star Wars lore was already fucked up when Disney bought it. TFA was a shit show.

>>89029388
Wedge is in one episode only, so far, and he barely does anything.
No.
No, unless you count Vader.

>>89029395

>>89029395
There's no way in Hell those are true.

>extrapolating the entire plot from a leaked picture of a tree

>>89029416
Old-ass ship or not means nothing. They wouldn't have been able to disable the ISD if they didn't have the specific weapon loaded into the guns to do it. Literally any ship could be rebuilt to shoot them.

It would only be an accomplishment if the weapons used to disable the ISD were straight-off-the-line Y-Wing model weapons (they weren't) or the Y-Wings pulled a future-A-wing maneuver and kamikaze into the bridge.

>>89029408

There's also new leaks that the owls we've been seeing in Rebels recently are going to be a major part of the stuff going on over at Ahch-To.

>>89029528
>Rey is born from Luke and whatever woman
>When consciousness is being funneled from the cosmic force into Rey's developing mind, the force chooses the goddess specifically instead of a random mix-and-match of quadrillions of people
She can still physically be born a Skywalker despite having the attributes of something else internally.

Being a fan of the Stormtroopers is suffering.

>>89029571
>>Rey is born from Luke

come on

>>89029428
Rey is going to meet up with Luke, where he will take her to the Force Source, the origin of both the Living and Cosmic Forces, and the origin point of all sentient life. He will explain to her that one day the Tree birthed two humans, a Sister, and a Brother. The Sister was charged with the creation of all subsequent life, while the Brother was made to be her servant. Jealous, the Brother killed his Sister and damaged the Tree. The Sister then birthed the Light Side of the Force as we know it, while the Brother formed the Dark Side. The two reincarnate endlessly, locked in struggle for mastery of the Force and all living things. Rey is the reincarnation and embodiment of the Light Side itself. Snoke is the Dark Side.

Yes, it is LITERALLY Korra.

How well does Rebels portray Thrawn? Do they do him justice?

>>89029590
>Snoke is the Dark Side.
Suddenly the screams of all the people shitposting about the Brother from Mortis being Snoke can be heard

>>89029590
This is stupid enough to be true since Star Wars now a feminist propaganda machine

>>89029612
Mortis was fucking stupid in the first place and I think most people here agree it was a mistake. Why on Earth would they actually want to roll with it?

>>89029596
Either competent or borderline Mary Sue. Your pick.

>>89029590
RIP star wars if this happens.

Does that make Anakin an 'avatar' ? If Snoke existed before the fall of the republic, wouldn't Anakin kill him? Or has JJ now said "LOL PREQUELS AREN'T CANON, WHAT PROPHECY?"

msw has never, ever been wrong

But George's ideas are often dumb if not first passed through the filter of editing. Mortis was one of them.

>>89029715
This is true, they've always been 100000000% correct. Every last word!

>muh force needs to be mysterious forever
No

>>89029714
Any kind of conscious personification of the Force is a dumb decision because characterizing the Force like a pair of warring Greek Gods is totally counter to the mythological base upon which George built the concept. It also drew heavily on the DUDE ANAKIN IS SPACE JESUS LMAO idea which is also stupid

>>89029645
>3 super powerful beings are too powerful, so they go to a force well

I don't see what the issue is. They weren't gods or anything. Anakin was just fulfilling the prophecy on a smaller scale.

>>89029222
There's seven forms of lightsaber combat.

>Form I: Shii-cho/ Way of the Sarlacc/ The Determination Form
The fighting style is described as basic. It's utilized to disarm foes and being unpredictable with your swings. Kit Fisto is probably the most notable person for this style

>Form II: Makashi The Way of the Ysalamiri/ The Contention Form,
This made for lightsaber to lightsaber combat. This is pretty much space fencing. Count Dooku is renknown for his skill with it.

>Form III: Soresu/Way of the Mynock/The Resilience Form

The fighting style made to combat blasters. It's useful for deflecting blaster bolts and having a solid defense. Mace Windu has commented that Obi-Wan is a master of this form.

>Form IV:Ataru, the Way of the Hawk-Bat/The Aggression Form

This an aggressive specializing in 1v1 combat.by utilizing force assisted manuevers. It's flaw lies in confined spaces and prolonged combat. Qui-Gon and Yoda primarily used this form

>Form V:Shien amd Djem/The Way of the Krayt Dragon/The Perseverance Form
This is an aggressive form of fighting uses the oppenents own blows against the,counterattacks and overall physical superiority. This is Anakin's favored form.

>Form: VI:Niman, the Way of the Rancor/the Moderation Form/the Diplomat's Form
This is a hybrid style of fighting. It's primarily focused on basic manuevers and implementing basic force techniques. This fighting style doesn't have any distinct advantages or disadvantages. This is the form usually for double-bladed sabers and dual wielding sabers. Almost anyone decent with it died on the Arena in Genosis though this is the fighting style for the Grand Inquisitor

>Form VII: Vapaad/Juyo /the Way of the Vornskr/ the Ferocity Form
The the Jedi only learn the first six. The seventh is made to kill. The user sacrafices defense for aggression. This leaves some vulnerable for force attacks. Mace Windu made a ariant of it where he taps into the darkside to fuel his attacks.This was also Maul's.

>>89029802
they stated that they were the living personifications of the Force

>>89029665
I mean they completely fucking ignored that the geonosians designed the death star in rogue one, so we kinda know they don't consider the prequels canon anymore.

>>89029782
well, episode 4 and 5, the ones that talk about the force at length, do give the vibe that the force is omnipresent but inscrutable

>>89029827
>he didn't read Catalyst

I want casuals to leave

>>89029825
and sheev claims to know everything.

Just sounds like they were egotistical in their own power.

>>89029857
maybe the death star is a cumulative process, involving hundreds of scientists and engineers, and passed back and forth between designers

>>89029831
the "inscrutable" part was key, in fact it's debatable whether or not the Force has a genuine will/consciousness at all, or if it's just an energy that flows through everything like Ki. giving it a face and a personality is a terrible idea.

>>89029868
Something that wouldn't have started had the Geonosians not made a 3D image of a potential weapon to base research around.

>>89029869
the force "acts through you" so it seems to be able to do its own thing, but you can also command it, so it is possible to make it do things it isnt supposed to

>>89029868
Galen was brought in to work on the superlaser, which was the one thing the Geonosians hadn't entirely figured out.

>>89029691
>Rey
>Jyn
>Aphra
>Phasma
>Han's black wife

Yeah keep denying it.

This leak is real imo, it's Disney's way of pushing the whole "women are always good and men are always evil" shit

>>89029835
Can you blame him?

>>89029868
This is more or less what happened. The Geonosians made the initial designs, but the Empire basically had different research departments fine-tuning different aspects of it. Galen's department was mainly kyber research for the weapon, at least at first. He thought Krennic and the Empire were going to use his research for energy and when he caught on that they were weaponizing it, that's when he fled.

>>89029931
>>Aphra
>>Phasma
But those women are evil.

>>89029935
actually yes, read a fucking book you simpleton

>>89029819
why would confined space and prolonged combat be a weakness of Form IV?

also, didn't Vader have to make a custom form of saber combat to accommodate his suit or something?

>>89029931
>Han's black wife
Wow, this is vintage bait

>>89029935
Yes, considering Catalyst was one of the few good books in canon so far.

Pablo, give me answers you fat fuck. Was the Queen Egg that Klik Klak raises the same queen that was sterile and shitting out battle droids in the vader comic? Or is it a completely seperate one?

>>89029966
To be fair, they knew they wanted the weapon to kyber-based. It wasn't so much that they didn't know what weapon to use and more a case of them factoring a weapon that was theoretically possible but they didn't quite know how to pull it off.

>>89029966
that happens a lot in real life
people come up with a sweet concept, but either the technology isnt good enough, or there is a serious drawback nobody knows how to solve

galen apparently worked on the reactor as well as the laser, so maybe he had figured out how to contain the energy without exploding and then making it explode anyways

I know it would look shitty in film, but there's got to be more the movies can do to capture the mystical, ethereal, primordial aspects of the Force. The idea that "Force powers" don't even begin to tap the full extent of what it means to be connected to the Force. The movies have always made the Force out to be this extraordinary thing, like being mainlined into God himself, and there have to be more ways to show it.

Rewatching The Clone Wars, one thing I really don't like is often Obi Wan gets the shit kicked out of him. It seems like every episode he's in, he gets a beatdown by like 2 guys because he can't fucking hold on to his lightsaber. It's not a good sign when the audience can clearly see how he could easily deal with these encounters he's flat out losing. I guess they didn't want to make the jedi too tough in that show but they really went too far sometimes.

The choreographers clearly have trouble putting jedi in fights without making the jedi fuck up everywhere, but Obi Wan gets it the worst. There's also a pretty pathetic scene in that one episode where they have to protect a group of farmers where Anakin can't even deal with Hondo in a fight.

>>89032415
I'd love a Dooku movie, but I imagine the only way they'd go for it is if they can market it as a Yoda movie and have Dooku as a secondary character rather than the main character

>>89032441
Yeah, Dooku doesn't seem too popular among anyone at Lucasfilm and I think Disney would be wary about making a movie about a character who doesn't have a huge fandom like Han or Boba.

I could see them jumping at the idea of a Yoda movie though, and if we're lucky they'd throw Dooku in. It'd be a good time period for Yoda, too- slightly younger than we've seen him before but not enough to be drastically different, both visually and personality-wise.

So, if the Sith hid in secrecy for over a thousand years using the rule of two, thought extinct by the Republic, what alternative factions would Dark Jedis and other dark side users join and turn to during the 1000 year period? Clearly there are other dark side of the force groups that could be become influential and powerful and be seen as potential successors to the Sith during the power gap era.
What other galactic threats did the Jedi have the face and confront throughout the period?

Or did they literally sit on their lazy asses just meditating and shit for a millennium?

>implying that teachingg a padawan Form VI isn't a death sentence for him when fighting literally fucking anything.

>>89032568
if they gain knowledge from it, and can defend themselves reasonably well against scum and villainy, then it is worth it

the last thing you want is to force your padawan into a form they are not comfortable with, otherwise they will never learn from it

>>89032559
Trying to remember how the Bane trilogy played out but if I remember right, Zanya and Bane would influence some events and try to stay up to date on what's going on in the Republic. The thousand years were also considered a peaceful time so the Sith might have caused some small scale conflicts but they probably spent the majority of that time trying to learn more darkside shit so they could BTFO the Jedi.

If we can stop meming for a second, let's talk for real about lightsaber assisted flying.

How did the creators imagine it would work?
First of all, let's look at the very basics of aviation. When using a propeller, the blades have to be curved in such a way that they catch the wind and force it backwards, thereby pulling the plane forwards.

A propeller made from two cylindrical rods would not be able to pull or push the air, and thus creates no down-draft with which to lift the craft and/or person.
Force powers can push and pull things within limited range, but they cannot (as far as I know) create wind, and even if they could there would be nothing for the wind to catch onto.

Additionally, as the blade of a lightsaber is made up of laser, one has to question how they would be able to catch the wind at all. Granted the kyber crystals produce a very solid state of laser, but the blades have never been shown affected by wind, rather it is the hilt that is pushed from people's hands when this does happen.
So you have a double-bladed lightsaber with a propeller-like configuration, but no way for them to catch wind and create upwards motion.

Even in-universe, there are rules regarding gravity and flight. Sci-fi settings especially need some laws of physics to make us believe spaceships can fly but people can't.
So the question is, why, how and where did this idea even come up?

>>89033011
in cartoon land, spinning flight

>>89033011
>why, how and where did this idea even come up?
Disney's marketing department because they need to sell toys.

In Universe: Vader,Sheev and even Grand Inky didn't expect them to fly with it. They told them that they couldn't be expected to hunt down Jedi until they mastered technique. They made it a group effort and to conjure up some ingenuity with the Force to pull it off. Vader allows them to roam around with helicopter sabers because he finds it amusing

>>89033093

Even more so because that would constitute prolonged unaided flight and that's not possible through the force. Then they might as well just levitate themselves to fly Superman style, if it was possible.

>>89033213
That's just using the Force to push off the ground while the helicopter blade is negating most of your weight. It's a totally legit move.

The move was coined by Anakin after observing Jar Jar. It's called The Farty.

>>89033011
Repulsors. The blades do fuck all. They arent meant as wings.

They just knew that spinning was a good trick so they helicoptered.

»89033011
>How did the creators imagine it would work?
After Vader was defeated by Obi-Wan, Sheev spent years going through the Jedi archives discerning the secret of their power. The sabercopters are the final result of that research - a portable high ground!

Mon Mothma actually bumped into Chopper while filming Rogue One. I hope she checked to make sure she still had her wallet with all her precious Dataries. Those things are total collectors items now.

I like the idea that the Story Group is willing to take the effort to share between productions and I hope we see more of it in the future. The article points out this was their second film since being formed so Rogue One seems to be where they've got their stuff pretty well together.

I hope they share more going on. The sequels are probably a lot harder to do this with, being so much further in the future, however I guess the space owl rumor, if true, shows they're still doing what they can. It'll be interesting to see what they can push.

Don't need her anymore, might as well just have her disappear from the movie, dopety-dopety-doh. Nevermind that the absence heavily implies she dies when she vanishes in the middle of a pitched battle that saw the capture of all the heroes until Poe shows up.

Disregard, I probably confused it with some other shit we measured in the wind tunnel at some point and also thought of all the non-wing shapes around. It's been a while.

My bad. Either way. I wouldn't try to explain the silly shit with science too much.

Sucks that the Hammerhead that took out two Star Destroyers in Rogue One was destroyed. I guess spaceships don't exactly have a reverse (okay some have retro rockets along with stabilizers) and once you've wedged yourself into a Star Destroyer at full sublight you're stuck for the ride.

Still it's one more notch on the movie's depression meter. I guess Phoenix Squad doesn't need to exist as an entity after being rolled into the Alliance so we can't quite count this as a loss for them, but screw that. It's still one of their ships now and it's still a Rebel loss.

Plus I know someone who claims Sato is doomed since Hera is promoted to general, but I can't see that meaning anything if Phoenix just becomes part of the bigger Alliance fleet. I think it's kind of weird she's promoted to an army rank rather than a navy one, given she's a star pilot and all, but whatever, so was Han.

>>89029438
Pretty sure the whole thing with the Force tree and the good girl and evil boy was confirmed fake. It also goes against what we already know about the Force's and life's origin.

I suppose it's possible that maybe Phoenix Squadron grows to handle more than just being a starfleet. 'Till now, the only field group they had was the Ghost crew. Perhaps when the Rebel Alliance is formed and Sato dies, Phoenix Squadron gets an actual soldier branch and thus justifies Hera's promotion to General.

>>89033737
Everyone wants Sato dead. Do we really want Iron Squad kid to step up?

>>89033729

From what I remember, girl and boy discover tree that is the progenitor of the Force. Girl learns to use the Force from the tree. Boy leans to use the Force from girl. Girl and boy grow up, girl teaches more people, boy becomes jealous or someshit and makes the Dark Side. Kills girl. Girl's followers eventually become the Jedi, boy becomes the first Sith. Girl reincarnates every 1000 or so years and Anakin might have been one of her reincarnates but Rey is 100% her reincarnate and has to eliminate the Dark Side to bring peace or some bullshit.

Yeah, it doesn't really mesh with that's been established with how the Force works.

>>89033763
>Everyone wants Sato dead.

Untrue. It's just pretty obvious they're setting him up to die.

>Do we really want Iron Squad kid to step up?

Also forgot to add that the giant tree-stump from the set photos is said tree that created the Force that the girl learned from.


But yeah, the whole thing is complete horseshite.

The Alderaan hat finally redeemed itself in this movie, at the cost of the brave souls who wore it. They took two ISDs with them.

They did it. The long nightmare is finally over. Tantive Trooper hats are finally and officially and canonically cool.

Not a lot of backwards defense.

>>89033778
I don't see where it is 100% incompatible, even though there are individual parts of it that certainly are. The idea of a tree that is somehow connected deeply to the Cosmic Force isn't that much of a stretch, we've got special Force Trees already. Damned if we know what makes them special, exactly.

We also know certain locations are naturally strong in the Force and moreso that some areas actually allow for the spread of Midi-Chlorians, and thus life energy, into the galaxy. And we have places like Jedha said to have been where one of the first civilizations to explored the nature of the Force lived.

Not that I'm trying to defend this. I don't mind it as a legend, a children's story of events that may hold some degree of truth. I don't think it diminishes the nature of the Force. The idea of reincarnation sounds bunko but sure if the Force wanted to I guess it could. If it can cram a baby into Shmi I suppose it could crap out a soul it ate a long time ago in a treehouse far far away. Not really sure what the point would be beyond sound ooooOoOOoOooo mystical and shit. So spoopy.

Frankly what it does to the Jedi and Sith reducing their origins to squabbling kids is fairly shite. But, sure, good enough if it's just, you know, a kids story. "You were my brother, The Sith, I loved you! We were supposed to push each other on the tree swing, not leave the leaves in darkness!" "I HATE YOU!"

Mind you I think the whole rumor is bunk, just analyzing it as an idea.

If this is the new background, I'm kind of done with Star Wars.

And people said the Extended Universe was long in the tooth? Episode 7 was somewhat enjoyable but uninspired, Rogue One was mediocre- but at least the Heir to the Force (Thrawn Saga) was fucking fun and didnt fuck up canon.

What is with writers and having to immediately having to write about the meta-universe itself?You have to blow your load ASAP, and splurge everyone about gods and force phantasms and shit.

Don't talk shit like that about the Hammerhead Corvette.

>>89033950
it goes against what we know of anakins birth( that it was probably plageius doing). Also the sith homeworld cant be moraband if its started with this kid.

I also think lucasfilm is probably terrified to go into detail about what the force is after medchlorians, theres no way they would take that risk and have it backfire on them. Its also way to on the nose given the world right now

Blockade Runners don't do so bad for themselves. Two twin turbolaser turrets and four single turbolaser turrets.

Singles are clearly better protecting the flanks but the twins should do okay as long as the upper doesn't take out the radar dish. I get where you're coming from. If a TIE can ride near to the back engines it'd be hard to target, but ships like the Ghost do fine (even when the Phantom isn't docked which reduces their rear firepower).

At least the canon Hammerheads have a rear gun to match the two on the front.

Yes, it fucking diminishes it.
There's a reason why in horror, you avoid showing the bad guy as long as possible, and why you never reveal his origins as much as possible, or explain his capabilities in detail.

There's a subtlety lost , a mystery lost, when you try to explain how things work, specially if you set it up as a mystery, that's wonderful, and rich and magical. The Force was set up as this great, and amazing thing, that binds us, surrounds us, and that's it. Yes, maybe there's creation myths, somewhere in different cultures, but you could leave that to scholars and not be official canon.

Directly explaining REY to be some Force Goddess reincarnation and then ALSO have to explain the root of all the Force and all existance? It just ruins the elegance and wonder. It's why midichlorians are horrible.

You dont reveal things that ruin the wonder.Sure , you might think it explains the setting, but it just ruins things.

Leave good things alone. Dont break functioning shit.

They've been able to shoot backwards since the very beginning.

If the Force tree shit was true, MSW would be talking about it. But they haven't. It was just some hobby blogger who was a known faker that spread this rumor.

I don't even like the Force tree bullshit, but come on. I'm sure you hated Mortis and the Yoda arc too.

TTT didn't "fuck up canon"? And what about ysalamiri? Besides, of course it didn't mess with the Force, because it didn't even delve in it. TTT was a tremendous achievement in terms of political worldbuiling, but it was awfully unambitious otherwise. The OT trio, aside from Leia, didn't really move anywhere, the Force wasn't explored in any way, and the plot really was centered just on another "warlord of the week wants to restore the Empire" conflict that just happened to have an antagonist who wasn't shit.

So did any Seperatist units end up in the Rebel Alliance? You'd figure the young Rebellion would take any help that they could get. And the Seperatists did have those massive Trade Federation battleships.

>>89034052
No offense but you sound like the people who flipped their shit when they first heard about Midi-Chlorians.

Given we know Luke is looking for the First Jedi Temple ostensibly for secrets which will likely include origins of the Jedi and very probably the Sith, you're going to need to expect some degree of revelation.

Besides, you're overstating this reincarnation bit. Goddess is a bit much. The myth of the eternal hero is as old as the concept as a hero born of a virgin.

Frankly I think reincarnation is unnecessary but then virgin birth for Anakin did too. I just rolled with it.

>>89034104
some did, the separatists were a diverse bunch

>>89034080
I dont doubt that there is something to do with trees, they have been setting that up for a while now with poes birth and luke seeking out the jedi temple tree, but there is a gap from trees to literally the plot from avatar

The ISD isn't on top until it's ready to pull the Tantive into the hanger bay. You can even see the turrets turned all the way around and pointing relatively straight behind to shoot.

>>89034105
people flipping there shit about medichlorians are the reason why they wont go whole hog on the force, to much potential to piss people off

>>89030672
With good actors I think it could actually work. McDiarmid vs CGI Yoda with most of the focus on Coruscant Disaster Movie as the side effects tear the Semate apart?

>>89034155
McDiarmid has said that he would love to return to play The Emperor again.

>>89034102
I personally believe that the 'Warlord of the Week Wants to Restore the Empire", was wonderfully done, and it gave us a villain that was interesting, and not a horrible caricature of a Evil Villain. Thrawn was smart, and was merciful with his soldiers, and not some overgrown hateful baby- and his men loved him.You actually wanted him to win, and became conflicted, because you also wanted Luke and his team to win. There was a lot of conflict going on with Han, and Leia, and so much going on- actual world building, without relying on tired, bullshit magical world development about Gods, midicholorians- we at most got a tease about the Emperor's abilities, and how Ysamiliri could nerf a jedi.

>>89034105
Respectfully, it's shit.
You dont bring back a near dead franchise, and immediately start blowing your load with shit about Gods and Force Goddesses, and World Creations myths and shit. It's Star Wars, not FORCE WARS. I hated the whole virgin birth thing about Anakin too, yo.

I didnt roll with it, though,I chose to call it crap- although, I do like the idea of Darth Plagueis being responsable for Anakin's life.

>>89034134
If that were true they could have just quietly never mentioned them again. TCW laid it out fairly straight and explained the whole mechanics of the dual nature of the Force (Cosmic and Living, that is, not Light and Dark). I can't see the Storygroup feeling any need to hide it, but we'll see.

Besides, it isn't like they weren't fully capable of making goofball decisions as is. Did we really need a super duper third Death Star? It wasn't even nostalgia, they straight up made a clone army out of plot points from the OT. It is certainly possible they could make a new midi-chlorians moment. People are STILL bitching about the Skywalker sword having new powers to summon Rey (I don't know why they don't just think it was the Force). Or Rey. Just Rey. Learning Mind Tricks, kicking trained Force dudes. I'm sure you've noticed the totally friendly discussions about her.

Finally got to watch the Rebels episode.
Did anyone else think that Saw's voice acting, well... bad?

Reminder that Apathy is death.

>>89034188
>You dont bring back a near dead franchise
Yeah, they only hadn't been on the big screen since 2008 and it wasn't like you could go to the store prior to TFA and buy Star Wars bath towels, shirts, mugs, figures, models, Lego sets, key chains, lunch boxes, The Flamethrower, etc.

>>89034104
>So did any Seperatist units end up in the Rebel Alliance?

Doubt it. The rebel alliance's proper name is The Alliance to Restore The Republic. The CIS were out to be separate from (or in some cases, destroy) the Republic. The only kind of folks who were with the CIS joining the rebellion are reprogrammed droids or assholes who were in it for war glory (Grievous and Trench). Die-hard believers of the CIS cause would, I think, very likely NOT side with the rebellion.

Some do. Personally I thought he was fine. Saw doesn't get much older, it's only two years to R1, but by the film he's literally on death's doorstep. Poison has eaten his body and mind. This is still trying to sound like an old man but not like he's about to barf up a lung.

>>89034181
I love that guy, he's old school in a good way.

Heh, if that Rey nonsense is true he and Luke could be hanging out on that island, debating in a civilized manner and both wanting to convince her which way to jump.

I just think that if there going to take risks like that, they wont be in the main movies. To much potential for things to go wrong. If you strike out on your explanation in a mainline film, its going to be really hard to get those non hardcore viewers back, its a lot easier to take those kind of risks in a cartoon that only the really hardcore fans watch
