I'm done paying hollywood to force political opinions down my throat.

Women are not strong
Women are not heroes
Women are not determined or inspiring

They are verifiably, factually and demonstrably less intelligent, less inspired, less ingenious and less capable than men in almost every field. I am not now nor will I ever swallow the feminist pill of equality because the two genders very simply are not equal.

That is why I didn't like it. Because Rey was the protagonist. I don't want that, I don't need that and I have had enough of Star Wars in my life if that's the way the franchise is going.

Woman can be all of those things. That's why it's only more frustrating that EVERY WOMAN IN STAR WARS IS A STRONG TAKE-NO-PRISONERS ACTION HERO THAT CAN TAKE DOWN 4 ARMORED STORMTROOPERS WITH HER BARE HANDS

It's frustrating. Its unrealistic as fuck. It would be unrealistic even if it was a man.

Hollywood needs to realize it's better to write GOOD female characters instead of STRONG female characters

>>
>>91745885

No, no, friend.

It's not 'good female characters'.

It's 'good characters'.

You don't write good characters, for example, if the fact that someone has a vagina fucks up your ability to write them well.

It's when you get hung up on making a good black or good white or good male or good female that you fuck up.

Because when you force yourself to make someone a point of inspiration because they're 'x' when x is just a part of who they are, that is when you fail.
>>
>>91745911

Why bother making them sterile? They only got other men around, and Jango was apparently asexual anyway.

Official site kinda explains that

As for Starkiller, I'd bet it's some ancient weapon shit Snoke knew of and took advantage of. If it's anything to go by, we know Thrawn was sent to the Empire for a reason, and to the unknown regions by Sheev for a reason.

>>91745855
>Where did the first order get the funds to make starkiller?

My headcanon is that Starkiller Base was an Empire project that was underway that the First Order finished years later.
>>
>>91745919
I half agree with this, but I also think there are a lot of instances where to tell the best story a character DOES need to be a certain gender or race.

As much as I don't like how Rey is written, I think her being a female adds a layer to the trilogy we haven't seen in the ot or pt. 90 percent of what she does wouldn't be as impactful if she was a young man. At least that's just my opinion on her character. There are better, more obvious examples of characters who rely on their gender to tell a story
>>
>>91745911
IIRC they weren't his kids, they were from the wife's previous husband who fucked off before she met the clone.
>>
>>91745956
>>91745944
This could make sense. Especially since there was probably a reason the empire remnants wanted to make their way to the unknown regions. I haven't read the newest aftermath book yet but it seemed like they went in that direction for barely any reason. Maybe they went to prepare starkiller
>>
>>91745959

I do agree that sometimes you have to have a character of a certain gender and/or race.

Their Eyes Were Watching God wouldn't be the same story if the black main character was white.

Mind you, Star Wars didn't need a male or a female protagonist in particular.

But I personally think Rey's actor needs to learn how to emote and that the sudden power gain near the end doesn't make any sense, but what are you gonna do?

It was better than the plots Jake Lloyd and Hayden Christensen were made to act out.
>>
>>91745793
I agree wholeheartedly. You are not gonna convince me that a white woman can outrun a black man. Completely destroyed my suspension of belief

So I just finished Thrawn last night, good read, would recommend to anyone who hasn't. It did the thing I liked in the Plagueis novel and was disappointed they didn't do in the Tarkin novel, it spanned a long time instead of taking place in a few days.

Particularly enjoyed the twist at the end where the battle mentioned in Rebels, where civilian casualties vastly outweighed combatants, was actually caused by Pryce and Thrawn had to take credit. I was on the fence when I realized the book would jump between Pryce and Thrawn but it was neat where, as thing progressed, Thrawn became more humanized and Pryce slowly turned into a monster, different from their outward appearance on Rebels

Imagine how awful that first time seeing a super star destroyer in combat must've been for the rebels.

I KNOW, RIGHT!?

I know shippers are crazy, I'm one of them, but I just cannot fathom how on earth that pairing could possibly work, considering as their last meeting had both parties doing their level best to kill each other.

I bet it's just because they don't want to ship Rey with Finn or Poe (or better yet, both of them at once), the racist shitbags.

Well, there's racism and then there's also the fact that Finn comes across as clearly Rey's inferior physically, technologically, and spiritually in TFA and that may be another reason why people don't want to ship Rey with Finn. That, and for whatever reason, it seems like a lot of Star Wars fans are genuinely scared of romance in the series.

Never stopped anyone before. And anyway, there's nothing to say that Finn can't close the gap on his own, the film shows that he's a great shot with a blaster, and does a pretty decent job with a lightsaber despite not being force-sensitive, when most regular people who try to use one of them end up killing themselves with it. Could easily build off of that.

It's funny, actually, but Finn actually seems more compassionate than Rey. Considering how it's his idea to rescue her from Starkiller. Eh, maybe it's just me.

Personally I prefer the ship with all three of them.

Finn's odd, he's only really compassionate at the end, and even then he would have happily abandoned the mission to stop Starkiller to save Rey instead if Han hadn't yelled at him. Underneath it all, Finn is a hero more by accident than his own design, which kind of makes him the Han of the new trio (that is, the self interested scoundrel who finds friends worth fighting for)
Which kind of makes Poe the Leia, know I think about it. Guess the fangirls will get what they want after all

A question, /swco/,

So if the Plinkett/RLM reviews are the definitive "case against" the prequel films, what is the definitive "case for" them?

Has anyone ever put together something of similar quality, not necessarily in response to Plinkett, but laying out the reasons the prequels should be exonerated?

And I'm not talking about that ring theory stuff.

Personally, I like the PT, even though I know it has many flaws and faults. It's kind of fascinating to me, and I was wondering what, if any, you guys think are the highest quality prequel-apologists.
>>
>>91748466
No of course not since there isn't a definative case to be made. It's one thing to like the prequels but it's another thing to able to defend their shittiness.

Technically, I agree. I hate women, I hate females.
Still doesn't stop me from writing one as the protagonist in my fantasy novel. You know why? Because fantasy women are not despicable. In my fantasy, I don't need to hate women. I can take away the more distasteful qualities from the characters I want, or all of them. I can add a wider variety of weaknesses for female characters if I remove their innate ones. Applies to strengths too. In fantasy, women are superior to real women.

>Telzin is the one who made him the person he is, she'd be the last person to remind him of who he used to be

I'm assuming what Maul refers to is his birth name, so wouldn't his mother call him what she would have named him if she didn't want to remind him of who he used to be, Sidious's apprentice?

>>91749175
Telzin isn't his biological mother, and she was the one who used Nightsister magic to enhance him into the perfect apprentice, similar to what she did with Savage
Savage was primarily trained to be offered either to Sidious or Dooku as a possible apprentice so the Nightsisters wouldn't be cut out of whatever world Dooku and Sidious were building, and in fact cutting the two of them loose is what turns the Sisters against them

The case for them is the plinker reviews, but being viewed with the understanding that there is a difference between actual critiques, and nitpicks.

All of plinkets problems with the prequels boil down to nitpicks and plotholes which do not make or break movies.

Rebuttals are one thing, but I feel like to really give the prequels the best defence the right way to go about it isn't to play catch-up with the preexisting criticisms.
For me, what makes the prequels stand out is their strange ambitions, their deep themes (even if they are a bit undercooked) and an understanding of where Lucas came from as a filmmaker out of the whole American Zoetrope independent filmmaker thing.
I dunno, I just feel like answering back to detractors at best just puts the prequel films back at square one of 'competent, fun, if unremarkable film', which seems to be Plinkett's benchmark, as he constantly makes reference to old adventure seriels and the standard structure of action/fantsy films.

someone explain this siniteen rattataki bullshit to me

if I'm reading a book and someone is mentioned as being a siniteen mercenary, is it a bald, pale rattataki or a brainee type siniteen

EU:
Rattatak native species are the bald people that you can play as in swtor and look somewhat like Ventress (Ventress ironically being the very first Rattataki introduced into canon before being retconned),

but the world also features immigrated species such as Siniteen, Weequay, Zabraks from Iridonia as well as their similar, assimilated/inter-species Dathomirian variants such as Maul or, even Dathomiri themselves such as Ventress (aka hybrid offspring of male dathomiri zabrak and dathomiri-native human females, or in other cases just the pure-blooded human Dathomiri that make up most of the population on Dathomir)

i.e. we have people like Ventress and Maul being native Dathomiri, even though in-universe both are often understandably mistakenly referred to as Maul being just a Zabrak (which is still technically not wrong, it's more of a formal/cultural distinction both in and out of universe when looked at from a wider perspective) or Ventress being referred to as a Rattataki—no biological relation to Rattataki whatsoever, but a completely realistic assumption to make from both in and out of universe perspective nonetheless.

Anyway, back to Rattataki

Canon as it is right now:
Rattatak native species have been changed to Siniteen (The brainiacs). Rattataki is now instead a demonym of the planet's people including, I assume, the original bald dudes (the image that used to be associated with rattataki) as well as the big-brains.

everything else is more or less untouched, incl the general concept of the planet.

Have any ventress-looking rattataki been introduced into canon, then? Do they even exist anymore? And what are they called? Siniteen as well?

kinda curious because it seems as if the old ratattaki image has been cucked in favor of ancient cantina puppets lol

No to both. Rattataki is now just an alternative term for Siniteen.

How do hyperdrive rings work? Do they just stay there in orbit until you use then again? Did only the Jedi have them?

>female siniteen have small brains
>>
>>91749823
From what I recall they are just an external hyperdrive for some ships that don't have them. Read: at the time hyperdrives were probably often too expensive or large to fit on smaller fighters like the fighters the Jedi used.

That said in TCW we see them around a fleet, just floating and waiting for use IIRC.

You probably just dump it in orbit and then rendezvous with it once you need it again.
>>
>>91749823
That seems to be the idea
I think they only used for small fighters like the Jedi Delta Wing which (at the time) were too small for a hyperdrive of their own and would either have to piggy back off a bigger ships drive (as we see A-Wings do in Rebels) or bring their own hyperspace ring to use as a booster
I think the Jedi mostly use them to occasionally free themselves up from relying on a larger transport

so the zabrak + human thing among nightsisters still produce what you might often see among their ranks, what we thought Asajj was, but now Asajj is retconned into a "normal", native dathomirian human female with the usual dathomiri baseline force sensitivity

so nothing changes I guess? Can you differentiate a zabrak human hybrid from someone like ventress from outward appearance alone?

Backstroke always make me think about grammatical structures.

like in English, we say "beat them to death." The verb and the object come together, and then the degree to which you uh, verb, I guess, comes last. In Chinese, you'd attach the intent that your beating is to the death directly to the beating part, which is why when translated back, Grievous ends up saying "batter to death them," which is quite literal.

There's a lot of interesting things, like how occasionally you'll see them mention a "good elephant." In Chinese, "Haoxiang" means "seems like" more or less, but that's written like 好像. Elephant in Chinese is written like 象, but is pronounced the same. So one would reasonably assume "oh, someone's just made a mistake."
But that's weird in and of itself. Typing in Chinese means you'd type in Pinyin, which is the pronunciations of the characters in a roman characters, and for that you'd type "xiang" for both. But chiense software knows to recognize chinese phrases and what have you, which means if you type "haoxiang" in that software, it will always return to you 好像.
This means that the bootleg subtitling was done by: Someone with both a poor grasp of both Chinese and English, going character by character, someone with a poor grasp of Chinese and Technology, entering each character in individually and thus opening themselves up to punching in "good elephant," or, in the most likely case, someone with poor grasp of technology and also didn't care because it's a Chinese bootleg and if you were making bootlegs I doubt you'd care much either

It's good action, there to establish the Rebellion and Empire's standing after the Battle of Yavin. The Alliance itself wasn't explored very much in ANH. We're also catching up with the main characters as well, setting up what's at stake, what their goals are and how close they've become.

>Keep cutting back to falcon with whacky C-3PO lines and Han trying to rape Leia
People like those characters and care about what's going on with them. They wanna know who Leia is gonna end up with because at the time ESB was released, Leia wasn't Luke's sister.

There's a finesse to ESB that is really lost on you.

lmao, you TESB fags are pathetic. Everytime there's a flaw in your movie, you always fall back on the same "W-well in 1980.."

I'm talking now. Right now, in April 2017, TESB is a pointless movie that could be condensed down to half an hour with the amount of filler there is in it. It's only redeeming qualities are it's cinematography and soundtrack.

It is for the most part an entirely hand-drawn animation, it is literally the purest form of kinography, you pleb. And it has absolutely top notch cinematography to boot.

Real talk for a moment,

How much do you think Snips fugured out about Anakin and Padme being together?

At the end of season 5 she says 'she understands' Anakin wanting to leave the order 'more than he knows'.
It seems like Obi-Wan pretty much had it all figured out. And Ahsoka would have spent much more time by Anakin's side throughout their marriage, seeing as Anakin gets married not long before he stops beign Obi-Wan's padawan.
She would've been by his side virtually 24/7 as his apprentice. Presumably she'd have noticed how much time they spend together, how much they (I assume) talk on the space-equivalent of skype?
She can't have been so clueless as notbe in on the secret, can she?

ROTJ has terrible pacing issues though, and in between novels are great for helping tell you bigger more detailed explanations. Also the whole Tatoonie part falls apart when the "biggest baddest" bounty hunter falls into a Sarlacc pit to "die" since the TFA hasn't mentioned anything about him. Also the Ewoks fight makes me with I could have had another Hoth instead.

Star Wars was always a normalfag thing.
The OT were normalfag movies, the PT were normalfag movies and the ST is and will be normalfag movies.
It's the biggest fictional franchise on the planet, Star Wars is exceptionally normal.

Anyone thinking that Star Wars is a secret club they need to protect from outsiders is at total odds with the success and place in pop-culture that the franchise has enjoyed over the last four decades.

Complaining about the number of normies enjoying Star Wars is like complaining about the number of Muslims at a mosque. Star Wars has been the mainstream since 1977.

I'm actually pretty sure that's exactly what George did, though. He built Fett up and then had him die like a chump.

Come to think of it, he does the same to Grievous, as >>91751776 notes. Grievous got built up to hell and then went down like a bitch.

Is it just that George has a strange sense of humor?

That's just an average shot from the prequels

You can see stuff like that much better done in the prequels

>>91751650
really weak


But look, the series did look fascinating and lived up to the prequels when it wanted to, it was pretty artistic and the visual direction was good.

but CW2003 accomplished more in a shorter time period, with less tools and a smaller budget while managing to create its entirely own visual brand within the star wars canon. If you think of each episode having its own unique feel. (1, 2 and 3 have distinct styles just like 4 and 5 for example) CW2003 really had its own thing going on that extended beyond e.g. the use of lighting. Being a cartoon it bent the rules with the action itself and the visual ideas. But you know in a way it's hard to extend that stuff to full length episodes for 6 seasons, it makes you look like a tryhard and could become detracting. TCW and CW really had different goals and neither really lost sight of them too much. I may prefer CW overall but it isn't at all perfect, you can notice that the episodes with more elaborate story in them (like in the later stuff) clearly dipped in quality compared to the episodes with nothing but raw action/movement. But then again to be fair, they were given explicit instructions to not create any meaningful character development. Imo the fact that 2008 tcw wouldn't exist without cw2003 is a testament itself to work. the 2008 series was also a budget show and similarly accomplished more with less, in 3D and on television at that so I don't dismiss it either.

His two, "No's" in ROTJ are more similar to the "No" Anakin says when he betrays windu(that scene shares a lot of visual similarities with the ROTJ scene)

>Snokes Command Ship isn't covered in gold

Not sure if anyone remembers me from a few threads back or cares, but I've finished transcribing all the short stories, and they're roughly formatted. What I've got in the doc:

>All 15 Star Wars Insider stories
>The Perfect Weapon
>Bottleneck
>Mercy Mission
>The Levers of Power

Those last three are all in the Rise of the Empire collection, but I think I'm going to keep them in here because I already have the original hardcovers and now I'll have those too. Plus I think it's cool for them to have their own home. Otherwise, nothing in here has been collected before.

As it stands, it's ~270 pages and nearly 92k words, which is basically novel length. I've got a good bit of final formatting to do, but I think I might try to get this printed before TLJ comes out.

He... he is? Not that I'm against that, but I didn't really think they'd need to resort to that. Like, they could've just got a lanky tall guy in front of a green screen, then blew him up to 8 ft and cg'd his head to look like Snoke.

You can get away with a lot more when you don't have to have closeups of characters or they don't have to emote at all. Jar Jar, for instance, wouldn't have worked as a costume.

>For Star Wars: Episode VIII it appears, at least in part, that Snoke will not be a character generated in a computer. Instead he will be a huge puppet around seven to eight feet tall, taking several people to operate and a man inside a suit to make him walk. Stylistically, it seems as if Snoke may be CGI generated for the holographic communication sequences, but when he has scenes in Episode VIII next to real flesh-and-blood humans like Kylo Ren he will be a practical puppet with facial features operated by the crew.

I'm hoping for that as well, it would fit the 'established' pattern of villains in the new movies
We thought Kylo was going to be some Darth Vader knock off, but the story surprises us with him actually being an in universe Vader wannabe confronted with the fact he really isn't Vader
Krennic was advertised as this huge badass with an awesome cape, but in Rogue One he was a pathetic groveling middle manager trying to push way above his station. Hell his cape even reflected that, as it was treated much worse than the bad ass capes Krennic was blatantly trying to copy
I have high hopes for Snoke being an intentional lightning rod set up by the First Order to trick the Resistance into focusing on him rather than their actual leadership

He's an old TOR era king of the galaxy that the Jedi chased off, explaining his riches and strange aesthetic. It also explains why Kylo has an old Malachor era blade and why he has guards similar to the emperor's.

The twist may be that the old old Jedi were actually worse than he was and just usurped him to rule in his stead.
>>
>>91753686
Is that really a good idea, though? The villains are a huge strength of Star Wars. What would the saga be without Vader, Sheev, Maul, and Dooku? They're a huge chunk of what's cool about the movies. Underwhelming villains seems like a betrayal of that ethos.

I wouldn't say Kylo was underwhelming
Krennic kind of had to be a little to help explain why his name literally never shows up again in the OT, and even then he got closer than any other Imperial to conclusively ending the Rebellion. I'd say he was pretty effective as a villain, just not a series defining monster like Vader

He demolished Finn so completely he's still in a bacta tank when The Last Jedi starts, and Rey only 'won' due to a combination of Chewie putting a bowcaster shot through his stomach (you know, that weapon that had an entire scene dedicated to pointing out how powerful it is?) and her very probably drawing on the Dark Side to get her second wind as his was fading out
The only reason people spout this "he destroyed consoles what a angry baby" bullshit is because they wanted another painfully dull emotionless killing machine, and even then Vader is only that in people's memories not the actual movies

It was painfully obvious foreshadowing, but considering how many people completely missed it or outright ignored that fact anyway I'd have to say it was absolutely necessary for the story. Even with help people just don't connect how far a person flies with how powerful the gun is

No not the foreshadowing, just the scene itself and that whole segment with the "traitor!" guy and stuff

I mean I cant remember if they were part of the same scene but I'd delete both scenes honestly, just awful. But hey, the movie sucked anyway no point nitpicking.

Also this, he didn't want her dead and she clearly wanted to cut his head off. That he still held his own against that kind of aggression is impressive

He wasn't even a deep character at the end of ANH, anon. He was just a scary black-suited dude. We knew literally nothing about him.

not at ANH, ANH isn't Vader's story, nor is ESB OR ROTJ necessarily

prequels are vaders story and in them you get a good idea what went wrong, he's a healthy young dude for the most part but it's not all black and white for him and maybe he faces some of the obstacles in his way in a less than ideal manner but yeah a well meaning guy but ends up crossing the line and fucks up (sure maybe it's his destiny but it makes no difference) and ultimately it's all his own doing and the atrocities he commits.. I mean, he really fucks up and then down the road anh, esb and rotj are the story of his offspring just like 7 8 9 would have been about the 3rd gen skywalker/solo kids (shame we never got a movie about that)

another cool symbolical thing: padme is basically the equivalent of solo in the prequels
>>
>>91754886
>(shame we never got a movie about that)

pretty sure the ST is supposed to be mainly Luke and Ben's story though, with Rey serving as a viewpoint between the two and also serving to let Lucasfilm make movies in the future that aren't strictly Skywalkershit.
>>
>>91754886
>not at ANH, ANH isn't Vader's story, nor is ESB OR ROTJ necessarily
And TFA isn't Kylo's story. So that gets back to the original point.
>>
>>91754954
I wasn't following the original conversation

Kylo sucks as a character the way he kills his dad is a really weak scene, I don't think much of TFA anyway so I have no part in this. TFA is infinities to me
>>
>>91754930
>pretty sure the ST is supposed to be mainly Luke and Ben's story

Yeah I know, I was being sarcastic

but for all I know you're probably reverse-baiting. Anyway, I would have wanted the real 7 8 9 and then disney could have moved on from the skywalkers to whatever they want

>the real 7 8 9
We're getting the real 7, 8 and 9, and so far the Skywalkers have been pretty damn central on both sides. Everyone is looking for Luke, and the primary (or at least most present) villain is Anakin's grandson
Now we have the trailer for 8, with Luke openly discussing the end of the Jedi. I'd say we're on course for the conclusion of the Skywalker saga by 9. Hopefully they'll still be around to be an important family, but not the core of yet another galactic conflict ever again

The security droid that Jyn shoots looks so unprepared. Like it just casually strolls into the fight and isn't even fully ready to use the blaster. Like it just happened pick up the blaster on the way and heard a disturbance so it figured that well, now that it's got a blaster it can go and check it out.

Oh, and N4-PR on the right

>We're getting the real 7, 8 and 9

We're getting whatever constitutes as "something for the fans"

it might be loosely inspired by 7 8 9 but we've been told it's a different direction than what lucas would have done. Lucas himself told it's different. He even has a sense of humour and said "I think it's exactly what the fans have been waiting for", an obvious joke (cynical or not) and a direct response to disneys original statement. Anyway, I want the soap operas George was talking about.

and really, that statement still doesn't make sense to me and I'm surprised people let it slip by so easily.. "something for the fans". Yeah, so give me what lucas would have done, not whatever it is your board of executives think makes up the tastes of a star wars fan. It's that fandom bullshit that shouldn't be allowed to exist. When they came out with that statement, you can basically read it as: "being a star wars fan means that lucas is the enemy wink wink haha yeah we know, we're in the know, we've done are research and it's all backed up by our analytics department. We'll deliver something for the fans don't worry". Of course it doesn't seem like that way, especially now that the damage has done with EP7 out the door. Basically, you're supposed to thank Lucas but we couldn't even use his story treatments.

This one is kinda nice, the lack of random characters and the focus on just the two of them lowers the cringe into just wedding dress fetish.
The art being acceptable also plays a part on it

rogue one is like a standalone movie, it could have been made or it could not have been made and star wars would be no different without it with the exception of dark forces fans at worst

its existence doesn't remedy anything and it doesn't undo EP7 or the ugly, false-modest, ignorant behavior displayed by disney
