Luke, did I ever tell you about the time I was one of the most respected actors in the world, performing in renowned films such as Kind Hearts and Coronets, The Bridge on the River Kwai and A Passage to India? I even got an Oscar and a Knighthood in recognition for my talent and excellence. Then, while I was between shooting masterpieces with David Lean, a nerd named George Lucas begged me to play a samurai wizard from space in his sci-fi/fantasy flick. I took it to be nice, even though it meant saying lines such as "Only a master of evil Darth". Somehow, despite Lucas's bungling, it was a huge success and he roped me into appearing in the two equally idiotic sequels. I didn’t want to, but my code of honor as British gentleman and an actor prevented me from leaving a project unfinished. Now that's those movies are the only thing people remember me for. When you search my name on Google Images, the first result is from a website called “Wookiepedia”. My legacy is ruined forever. George Lucas was a bad friend.

Luke, have I ever told you about Trioculus? He was a mutant with 3 eyes, who claimed to be the son of Sheev. Alas, he was but an imposter, for the true son of Sheev was Triclops, also a 3 eyed mutant. What a coincided, eh Luke? They were good friends.

Guys, I'm crying right now.

Just looking at his picture makes me feel something strange inside. I guess you could call it "love". I'm in love with Krennic. I've lost interest in all guys, besides him. Guys who are considered "hot" by the general female population don't cut it for me anymore.

Krennic really is all I think about all day, every day. I really do cry myself to sleep at night thinking about how I'll never be with him. If only he knew I existed in this life, if only he knew my deep profound love for him. I know that will never happen though. That is the thought that makes me so sad when I look at him. I'll never be with him, but I'll continue to love him until the day I die.

Holy fuck I had this book. "The Glove of Darth Vader," right?

He switched from Navy to their Intelligence service. And while he may "just" be a colonel in the ISB he rates his own seat at the Death Star table. He's doing just fine.
>>
>>90232280
Seems that way, or someone offered him a position within ISB and he retired from the navy to take it. It does seem weird to go from admiral to being referred to be a lesser rank, and you can thank Filoni for that: he saw the white uniform on Yularen and assumed he was a grand admiral, so he became an admiral in TCW.
>>
>>90232002
If every one who would prefer a better thread eschewed this one, this one would not last.
>>
>>90232280
Yularen decided to move from the Navy to the ISB(which is basically CIA+FBI). The ISB doesn't have the rank of Fleet Admiral so he now holds the rank of Colonel. And during the course of the Tarkin novel he also becomes Deputy Director of the ISB(second-in-command).

He's doing just fine. Plus, as mentioned in the Recon, he's a stickler for the rules so going in the ISB was a better job for him personally.

I want to try something.


I was born in the early 90s and saw the original films on video, becoming a fan. I saw the prequels as they came out as a kid and initially liked them a lot, and read a lot of EU material like books and comics along with them. However as I got older I realized they had flaws and found the books to be less than satisfactory in content and very dissonant at times, leading to me no longer reading EU stuff.

Eventually I found myself mostly distanced from Star Wars post ROTS and initially treated the Clone Wars CGI cartoon with disinterest, but heard via word of mouth that it improved over time, so I got back into Star Wars with it. When the Disney takeover happened, I was cautious, but followed Rebels because I had grown a decent amount of appreciation for Filoni and co. to see how it went, and I knew that TCW had started rough too.

I watched The Force Awakens and thought that it was a well-made film that played it too safe, but it wasn't horrible or anything, and as such I'm still happy to follow Star Wars as a franchise despite issues or complaints I have with it.

Does this sound normal? Like, are most of you guys like me? Or do you have completely different fandom patterns? I don't really mean like your specific opinions on installments but how you interact with the franchise over time.

I'm sort of like this, only I got super suckered in to the Old Republic period. I grew to adore the Tales of the Jedi comics and the KOTOR games. I still count KOTOR 2 as one of the greatest stories ever told in the Star Wars universe.

My true love is the depths of the Old Republic, in the high drama of clashes between the Jedi, the Sith, the Republic, and the Mandalorians.

This is why I'm honestly pretty triggered at the idea of the Sith never coming back. To me, the Sith are elemental to Star Wars. You can't get rid of them, it's like getting rid of lightsabers or handsome smugglers.

I don't think he minds too much. It's not part of his job, it's his personal account and he's made it clear that the views expressed are solely his own, though certainly he can give us insight into the inner workings of Lucasfilm.

If it bugged him, however, he could stop anytime he wanted.

I never said the OT was perfect, though. I merely left out my opinion on them because the movies had been out for so long and I watched them at such a young age I was likely to be biased, whereas with the PT I was old enough to notice things on my own or be influenced by the criticism of other people. The OT never really gets criticism outside of nerd circles, so it didn't influence me.
>>
Why the fuck does The Son look so much like the Grand Inquisitor?

>>90233069

>>
>>90232805
The PT had similar issues to the OT but it hyperfocused on them.

Cludgy dialogue? Sure, both have it, they're written super awkwardly. But we never got quite so much focus on it as we did in stuff like AotC's romance scenes.
>>
>>90233100

It doesn't, though. When normies talk about Star Wars, when your mother talks about Star Wars, when the talking heads on the morning talk about Star Wars, they don't shit on the OT. If you want criticism of the OT you have to go online and look it up, you don't just run into it normally.

I wish they would do more fun games like Force Unleashed. The gameplay in it is pretty fun, even though the story is lacking.

No. I was born in the early 80s, grew up with the OT and was a bit disappointed with TPM. I liked AOTC a bit better and ROTS a lot better. Then when TCW came out it helped me look at the whole PT in a new perspective. As did Ring Theory. I recently rewatched TPM and loved it. TCW is still pretty underrated. There is so much that can be done with the prequel era, its a shame Disney cancelled it. I think I enjoy the prequel era better that the Enpire era. I think Rebels is okay to good and I really liked Rogue One but TFA was utter shit trash garbage and I don't consider it real Star Wars. In fact I don't think Lucas wanted to sell Lucasfilm. I think Disney or TPTB somehow threatened him and forced him to sell it.

You've failed to refute my post m8.
You don't seem to know what age the characters were in TPM, you seem to have forgotten that he impressed her by winning the podrace, a feat no human was capable of, and worst of all, you've bought into the meme that George is a fuck-up.

The AOTC romance is beautiful.

From the moment I met you, all those years ago, a day hasn't gone by when I haven't thought of you. And now that I'm close to you again, I'm in agony.
The closer I get to you, the worse it gets. The thought of not being with you - I can't breathe.

Once again, it's the difference between a Maroon 5 song, and a Flaming Lips song.
One would write a song with super-mass appeal, and one would write a song based on things they were feeling or dealing with at the time that might not be universally applicable.

George is not making a lowest common denominator film, with a regular romance.
Notice how the scenes are set.
They are alone on an island, having picnics under waterfalls, having dinners together, sitting by a fireplace and bearing their souls.

It's not supposed to be a realistic romance. It's a sensationalized, romanticized story.

The PT are not populist films.

And that dialogue I posted is very unusual in fiction in that it doesn't beat around the bush- you're right, it's almost the opposite of romantic But that's why it works for me, it's intensity.

Most of the action in 2 & 3 is dialled up to eleven, it's very over the top. I don't see that as a bad thing, but it's not the hallmark of an artistic film, it's popcorn stuff.

I like the Prequels less because there's big chunks I always end up skipping through because they're boring. Never felt the need to skip bits in the original trilogy.

ok you cucks does anybody watch Rebels as it airs on Disney XD? while I was suffering through horrible toy commercials there was a sick tv spot for some later episodes in the series (presumably the finale) with the big ass rebel fleet coming out of hyperspace to save the day, did anybody else see that or do you all just spoil it the minute the torrent comes out

I don't think too many of us even get Disney XD. I know I don't.

I don't think we've posted the new T.V. bumper.

The rebel fleet is a pretty healthy one, but not enough to take on ~6 star destroyers. It's gonna be good if it comes to that.

I'm actually thinking Thrawn is going to use Kallus to rally the fleet on Atollon to prepare for the assault on Lothal, and when all of Mon Mothma's ships land, that's when Thrawn strikes.
>>
>>90235268
>do you all just spoil it the minute the torrent comes out
You mean do we all get the episode as soon as we can rather than wait for the airing? This is 4chan, of course we get the pirated version as soon as possible.

But even if we didn't most of us can't watch the TV airing anyway because we don't have Disney XD.

Poe sets out to find Lor San Tekka, then gets sidetracked with a bunch of shit. The villain, Agent Terex, has a decent Bond villain vibe to him and is pretty much the only redeeming factor of the comic.

>Is it worth reading?
Not really. It's kind of aimless and Poe himself is a really boring protagonist. Even Terex's scenes are starting to get tiring.
>>
>>90236040

>>
>>90235982
>le boogeyman meme
>>
>>90236131
The book makes basically no attempt to do much of anything with him as a character. His only traits are being a great pilot and being somewhat witty, so he doesn't stand out at all. He's also a passive participant in the book- he himself doesn't drive the plots at all, most of the book's momentum involves someone else doing something and Poe just kind of reacting. He behaves like a secondary character in his own comic.

Combination of Poe not having any real character to begin with, the writer not caring enough to flesh him out, and possibly Lucasfilm not sharing much information on Poe's character depending on what is/isn't seen from him in TLJ.

>He was an Admiral in the Republic Navy but now he hold s the rank of Colonel? Entirely different rank structures.

It wouldn't be uncommon for someone to address him as admiral- even in real life, people who've achieved a high rank tend to go by that rank, even if their current job gives them a different form of address (like a retired general who becomes a university professor preferring to be addressed as general rather than professor).

I figure Yularen's such a stickler for proper rules that he'd probably correct anyone who calls him admiral, since his current rank is colonel and that's the "correct" way of addressing him despite being a less glamorous title.

The reason why they couldn't just do that has been discussed countless times in different places, including /co/. If you couldn't be bothered to look it up in the nearly 3 years since the EU purge you probably didn't care that much to begin with.

I was willing to give it a chance because I knew that. I knew that "You're being too hard on it, it's not as bad as everyone says. Abrams isn't a hack. They wouldn't let him make retarded design and plot decisions just because."

Swivels. So much green. Mind tricking a fully aware individual.

Like fuck the duel at the end, sure he was hurt. Using the force to influence the mind of a fully aware individual.

>>
>>90241269
I'd rather they last longer than a year, but it's not like the Empire just collapses at Jakku. They're in bad shape after Endor, there's multiple power struggles, and after Jakku the largest contingent of them left for the Unknown Regions. Jakku isn't even the absolute final battle with Imperial forces, just the last major one and the point where everyone realized it was a lost cause.

>>90241305
>A Empire controlling most of the known galaxy couldn't consolidate forces
Keep in mind the Emperor, his top enforcer, and most of the ruling council all died at Endor. There was a massive power vacuum and various admirals, governors and generals all tried to seize power for themselves. A vast empire isn't any good when it's fractured and large sections of it see each other as rivals for power.

In a lot of ways, it's like what happened to the Sith: the in-fighting, combined with having an enemy force that's much more well organized and united (the Jedi and later the rebels/New Republic) leads to their downfall.
>>

>That sounds realistic. A Empire controlling most of the known galaxy couldn't consolidate forces to defend inner holdings or anything. Just belly up.
They were all fanatically following Sheev's orders, which were to make a last stand at Jakku.

Sheev explicitly structured his posthumorous orders to kill the Empire. He was basically an angry shithead flipping the table because he lost, from beyond the grave.

It's not good writing but it's more internally consistent than you're implying.
>>
>>90241390
His Keikaku had lost, so he had to flip the table so hard, no one could pick up the pieces for a very long time.
>>
>>90241345
>'Grey Side of the Force' being made a fully canon thing.
So you got your information about Empire's End from shitposts here, didn't you?

They made that up you fucking idiot.

They didn't do that.
>>
>>90241358
I wish it wasn't so, but they did.

>>90241363
>>90241390
That's all well and good, but there's a huge number of Tarkin-tier sociopaths that would've wanted power for themselves. Its a galaxy-spanning empire, if it was a small interstellar nation then sure, I could see the loyalists destroying it for their Emperor's orders, but it isn't.

Then you're all missing another factor. The Rebellion. There's no way in hell would it be able to force itself to form a New Republic so quickly. At best, you'd get a patchwork for system-nations and the Rebels getting their own Republic consisting of a few idealist worlds, like Dac, Chandrila, etc.

I'll buy this since without Thrawn that's what would've happened.

>much more well organized and united

I don't buy this. The Rebellion was full of alliances of convince that would fall apart as soon as those vying for power stopped having the backing of the Empire. They also didn't have a ton of hardware. How many capitals did they field at Endor?

The rebellion couldn't take control of the galaxy from those warlords feasibly, especially since there would just be councils of them, and power rankings based on what that sector controlled. I don't see Fondor and Kuat turning, especially with how stuck up Kuati are. I can see the shipyards at Sullust turning. Shipyards at Mon Squidman. The Maw doesn't exist I'm assuming. You've still got whatever Golans over Coruscant, which will be kept in peace just like when the Jedi order fell, through force. I can't buy the Empire falling in a year.

>>90241390
>Sheev explicitly structured his posthumorous orders to kill the Empire
Taking what we know from Shattered Empire and the three Aftermath books, it seems he both did and didn't want to kill the Empire. Apparently he set up orders that both gathered people that could be counted on like Sloane so they could regroup and start again while simultaneously fucking over whole planets and killing off weaker or more volatile elements in the Empire.

So basically the Empire being destroyed and then reborn as the First Order was more or less his plan.
>>
>>90241458
Even less can I buy the Rebellion mustering up the strength to become the new galactic superpower. You'd get a lot of Imp Warlords and a lot of independent systems telling the Rebels to go fuck themselves with their New Republic. Idealists in a Galaxy of trillions and trillions would be a minority, not a majority.

I don't think I have "superior tastes" to normies, I think that these people think a ham sandwich is pretty much Ambrosia because they've only eaten what's handed to them. They don't know what they're missing. People have different tastes.

A swivel gun, a shield generator, and a hyperdrive on the fucking TIE fighter misses the entire symbolism of the TIE fighter. Did JJ Abrams never take a second to think about maybe why the TIEs were made like that, and there were other varients?

Meme example to get my meme point across. I don't think I have a special claim on it. I'm talking about shit writing being praised. Not shit plot, not shit characters, shit writing, which is Webding. People can like TFA better than the OT or PT. That's fine. That's why I said it was a 7/10 movie, because there's not a ton wrong with it as a standalone. It's just personally a 3/10.

I mean, sure you had shit like the Vong, LOTF, Abeloth but all that was ignorable and was mostly not included in the video games.

There were loads of games cancelled because of the upcoming reboot. Jedi Knight 4 and 5, an actually good Battlefront, that one Darth Maul game. I lost that full list of cancelled titles.

Now Star Wars is this big pop culture thing and rather than sticking to a niche audience and being good with it, they now pander to every walk of life so they feel represented. And you just can't walk out of your house without people going STAR WARS STAR WARS STAR WARS. This is what happens when you flood a niche hobbie with normies, you have it lose all meaning.

In real life I avoid mentioning I'm a Star Wars fan and I say that I haven't watched the movies much beyond one time and it wasn't fully because I don't want to be a member of the cringe normie crowd that has spawned since the Disney buyout. Nothing more cringe than those Youtube WHOOOAAA OH MY FUCKING GOD reaction videos to SW Trailers.

George had a lot to do with the EU actually. He told them to kill off one of the OT main cast. They decided on Chewie and he okay'd it. He also called for Anakin Solo to die because he didn't want to have any confusion going with the PT going on at the same time.

Yeah, George had his strengths. Broad strokes wise, he could make some really solid characters, even if the execution and details could be a bit off. His worldbuilding was excellent, too.

also lmao @ pedophile rebels autists who think eu is a "shitshow"

the EU is the grandfather of star wars background stories and expanded or alternative continuity. Even lucas liked to read the comics.

you can call it a shitshow if you want, but it is the original, definitive shitshow. It is where the fun begins(tm)

Something like that. They're transferred into the Cosmic Force, where they then become the midichlorians. Their spirits are basically recycled, or mulched, depending on your point of view.

Oh hell yeah. Party guy and Nerd at the Academy, sounds fun.

I find it odd that Krennic partying at the Academy is presented as a negative thing though. When else in your life do you get the chance to party? I wish I had partied more in uni - now I'm 30 and I go to conferences and everyone is just a sad drunk.

I know. I bought the first volume because I found a great variant cover but that's the only reason. Once I read it I said 'nah'. Maybe it'll get better when the movie comes closer.

No, I mean Obi-Wan vs Maul is pure fan service. I can't believe season 3 is ending with these two for some retarded reason.

>>90245527
These are probably he only characters in this universe that I've actively seeked to learn more about.

Saw RO, and then read catalyst. And the second viewing of the film was made even better by it. You know Galen had to tutor Krennic in everything, and it's the only reason he passed his exams.
>>
>>90245529

Maul died on naboo
>>
>>90245529

It'll be a dream sequence or something.

>>90245573
I doubt it. It kills me too because Filoni said he wouldn't do pointless fanservice. What is the point of Maul vs Obi-Wan in Rebels? What relevance does it have to do with Ezra, Kanan, Hera and Phoenix? It feels like a lazy RPG side mission that gets you pumped but when you do it, its pointless and empty.
>>
>>90245573
That image is probably from the vision that sends Ezra off on his own to Tatooine.
>>
>>90245529
>I can't believe season 3 is ending with these two for some retarded reason.

It isn't. Season 3 is ending with Thrawn's assault on Phoenix Squadron's base and it's destruction.

>>90245812
From the holochrons? Ezra just saw Tatooine's twin suns. He didn't see Kenobi.
>>
>>90245769
Once you dump Maul into the GCW era, a confrontation with old Ben is inevitable. Concluding his journey with a final confrontation with his archnemesis is logical.

It's something we have to get out of our system, now that we've reached this point. If there is something to complain about, it's Maul surviving this long for seemingly little reason, period.
>>
>>90245911
Maul coming back was a fucking mistake.
>>
>>90245881
Read the write ups for the last episodes. Ezra is supposed to go off on his own in Twin Suns after seeing a vision of Maul.
>>
>>90245930

It's such a dumb decision, I can't believe they actually went through with it.

And to top it all off they completely changed his character when they brought him back so whats the fucking point.

Just make a new villain.
>>
>>90246062
yes but the battle of atollon is what occurs in the SEASON FINALE, Twin Suns is the episode before that
>>
>>90245930
We all know he was suppose to die in TCW but the show got cancelled. Rebels is a natural way for the writers to put an end to his character and tie up loose ends. I understand why hes still alive. It would be terrible to kill him off in a comic.
>>
>>90244723
Rogue One.
>>
>>90246066
>Just make a new villain.
they did. Kallus was pretty one dimensional evil. Even killing his own men wasn't beneath him.
Genocide on a planetary scale was retconned later and now he's a firendly.

So they kind of needed to fill that void.

I don't think Maul was supposed to be the big bad.
They had their eye on Thrawn from the beginning, though. Kallus was even Chiss at one point.
>>
>>90246066
Something I hope happens with the new trilogy is that we see some actual NEW things that aren't rehashes. The Clone wars had some new things, but that was then and this is now. Hopefully the one off films can satisfy Disney 'nostalgia' quota, allowing 8 and 9 to go into actually new and uncharted territory content wise.

>>90246095
He was a mistake from the beginning. He had some good moments, but really a new character could have done what he did. Bringing back the villain that was split in half was a pretty bad disconnect to begin with.

>>90246085
Obi-wan and Maul are the unexpected help that arrives. They've been fighting all the way from Tatooine aboard the ship they stole from Ezra. They crash into Thrawn's ship, causing enough mayhem for the Rebels to flee. They then escape to the surface, spending the the last half of the last episode fighting across the face of Atollon, while Bendu provides color commentary. That last fight was Ezra's vision.
>>
>>90246140
They had Kallus do a complete 180 turn in character all because he was stuck on a planet with a rebel. Would've been more interesting if he was a double agent that worked for the Empire, one more act of Thrawn's master plan.

Are you? Putin's leadership and Trump's victory proved that the pendulum is swinging back.

Even regular people value those like Alexander the Great, Julius Caeser, Napoleon Bonaparte etc as way more valuable to history than the pacifists. Hell, name a single 'peacemaker' that is known, better yet name some that outweight those big names I just said. Woodrow Wilson? Utter failure.

So what you're basically saying is that Force ghosting is essentially cheating natural law by not assimilating into the Cosmic Force, and that Jedi are all hypocrites for practicing rites in defiance of that law, and yet feel they're qualified to judge Sith for doing the same? Faggots. No wonder the Force abandoned them to destruction so readily.

This is absolutely retarded and speaks volumes about your actual knowledge of history.
>>
>>90232919
The Sith always existed even they forced them into the story in order to just exist, I dont get your point
>>
>>90246911
The war was over actually, it was just about finding Sidious if he was a separate person than Palpatine
>>
>>90246911
Based on Kalani's statement, it should've been impossible for the Republic to win the conflict. But as other anons have stated, the war never ended really. In Legends and both Canon, the CIS continued to fight well after the war was over.
>>
>>90246911
Didn't Kalani say that in the final year of the war the odds were in favor of the CIS because they produced more Droids than the Republic produced clones

That being said it was pretty much over after Dooku and Grievous kicked the bucket. None of the council members was a capable leader. Wat Tambor lost Ryloth, Poggle lost Geonosis, etc.
>>
>>90246952
As-of ROTJ, the Sith are a dead group.
>>
>>90247441
Snoke and Kylo Ren may as well be Sith. They're pretty much the exact same, just missing the title. There is little to no difference from what I can see from the Sith and the Snoke/Kylo group.

Holy shit this thread was terrible.

>So what you're basically saying is that Force ghosting is essentially cheating natural law
No, just pausing it in relation to themselves. Indefinitely. They exist within the Cosmic Force. If you look at it like a river, then Obi-wan, Qui-gon, Yoda and Anakin are just four cunts who learned how to swim, as opposed to everyone else just drifting with the current. Realizing that you're capable of is not disruption of the natural order.

>and that Jedi are all hypocrites for practicing rites in defiance of that law
Four men who happened to have been Jedi =/= every Jedi who's ever lived.

Also, don't forget the Force Priestesses.
>>

>>90247265
This is a tangent but is it ever explained why Ryloth is so special? I mean to warrant the personal attention of major figures in no less than three galactic governments Wat, Windu and Thrawn. Narrative wise it doesn't seem to make much sense.
>>
>>90247500
>There is little to no difference from what I can see from the Sith and the Snoke/Kylo group.

Apart from entire traditions, teachings and skillsets that are completely lost with the deaths of Sidious and Vader.

I guess then that Ahsoka may as well have been a Jedi since there was 'no difference' between her and a Jedi Knight.

No. Ryloth only had one valuable resource. Pic related.

Spice.

>>90247652
Have all Sith holocrons been destroyed? As long as they exist, the tradition exists, the teachings are available, and the skills can be learned.
>>
>>90247652
They might not have the powers sure, but they still act the part of Sith. I mean hell, Kylo aspires to be Vader 2.0, if thats not Sith I don't know what is.

Also yes Ahsoka and Kanan are both Jedi. There's not a single thing that differentiates them from the Jedi. Only thing Ahsoka has is silver lightsabers, thats it.
>>
>>90247830
The Jedi ORDER, the Sith ORDER. Jedi and Sith are organizations, not adjectives describing behavior.
>>
>>90247500
You don't see a difference because we literally don't know anything about Kylo and Snoke in regards to their teachings and how they use the force. If they don't use Sith-specific teachings, then they are just regular dark side users. That's all there is to it.

>>90247830
Snoke isn't trying to be Vader 2.0, or even Palpatine 2.0, only Kylo is. Kylo just wants to be like his grandfather, for whatever reason. That doesn't mean he wants to be 100% Sith.

>Ahsoka
"I'm no Jedi" directly from her own mouth says that she isn't a Jedi anymore.
>>
>>90247830
>There's not a single thing that differentiates them from the Jedi
You mean the fact she actively tries to avenge Anakin's metaphorical death?

>Revenge is not the Jedi way
>I AM NO JEDI
>>
Why did Mandalorians go from Germanic people in TCW to mixed-raced Asians in Rebels.
>>
>>90247830
>but they still act the part of Sith
No, they don't. Ben is trying to act like his grandfather. I could put on a monk outfit and pretend to be a monk but that wouldnt make me a monk. He has no idea of the customs, techniques and traditions of a Sith. He's emulating something he's only seen. That is not being something. We don't even know of Snoke's motivation either.
>>
>>90247830
It seems to take more than just being force sensitive without being a raging ass about it to be a Jedi.
Asoka herself said she wasn't a Jedi in "Shroud of Darkness" when they were about to open the temple.
Kanan it's true, was knighted by someone while tripping there, so he is back in the fold for now.
>>
>>90247947
Not even Star Wars nords are safe from immigration and multiculturalism
>>
>>90247947
You don't possibly believe that all 1,000+ inhabited planets in the Mandalorian system would all be Germanic, do you? Real life doesn't even work that way on one single planet.
>>
>>90247947

>>90248020
I don't have a problem with asian-looking Mandos. It just seems jarring when pretty much all of the Mandalorians we see in TCW looked germanic/Nordic and most had blonde hair even. It would have made more sense to show more of the diversity in TCW too.
>>
>>90248169
Yeah, you know... that city in Russia has a ton of white people, why doesn't China have more white people in it?
>>
>>90248169
Dude, we only saw the main Mandalorian world. We never saw their territories in TCW. That's like assuming all members of the British Empire were white men.

The repetition of the Sith/Jedi conflict is one of the most boring things in all of Star Wars. The story needs to shift to other force user groups, but writers won't take the hint till it happens first in the movies. Revan does seem cool, but more because of his passion and dynamism than because he's part of yet another Jedi/Sith War.

Mandos are cool and are coming along nicely, in a less OP way then Traviss made them. I would like to see them at the full height of their power fighting Revans army

I don't know why people take Kalani's words as face value. Even if he wasn't clearly malfunctioning he couldn't possibly have all the data needed to make such claims.
>>
>>90247710
Where are these Twi'lek pictures from? Are there more like them?

>>90248623
He worked directly with the leader of the CIS. He would have access to classified Sepeartist military infromation. After all he IS a super tactical droid.
>>
>>90248663
He would also need classified Republic military information

>Kalani's words as face value
The creators of the show knew what they were doing by making him state that. If they didnt want the audience to know this information, it would not be in the show. It was to hit home the war was meant to be unwinnable and pointless.

As far as we know? Yes. The Jedi likely confiscated and destroyed every major Sith artifact after the fall of the old Sith Empire.
