What are your guy's honest expectations for The Last Jedi story wise? Will they make rey be the "real" chosen one and anakin was just a false prophet like those leaks suggested?

>>93420681
Honestly they'd be better off dropping the prophecy angle entirely, and if the trailer's bit about "Light, Dark, Balance" and "there's so much more" is hinting towards anything its that their going for just that, a less binary view of the Force, or at least a view of the Force that accepts that the Dark Side cannot be destroyed, only overcome and rejected
If nothing else, Lucasfilm and Disney are going to want to evergreen this shit, and that means leaving things open for future Dark Side antagonists, so we won't be getting a "the evil wizard is destroyed and his space tower cast down, everybody lives happily ever after" ending like ROTJ
That and Luke was the 'real' chosen one, and that didn't work either

That it's going to try and create a story but it will fall through and throw Anakin and Luke under the bus, if only to make Rey better.

I'll be honest, I have no high hopes for this trilogy and I'm doing my best to try and remain optimistic but it's hard.

I get the impression from both the trailers and the leaks that TLJ's going to start off looking like it's just remaking ESB again before rapidly veering into crazy shit territory.

At the very least it looks like it's going to introduce more original ideas than TFA (a low bar, admittedly, but still.)

I think the story is going to be weak and insincere, as with TFA. I think it's going to attempt to capture the joy of Star Wars but completely miss the mark.

The McQuarrie concept Y-Wing is gorgeous looking. I wouldn't mind them recycling this design for the ST a la the T-70.

>>93420681
Honestly, I'm just hoping that they one, don't rehash ESB and two, don't do anything that might give strength to the Grey Jedi meme and any affiliated crap.

My personal hopes aside from that are that the writing for the characters is much stronger than for TFA so that Rey is not a Sue, Finn gets some consistency and growth, Kylo goes somewhere interesting, Snoke isn't Diet Sheev, and Poe either stops coming off as a try hard attempt at the witty ace pilot (his quips in TFA were Whedon-tier and his piloting was too good given that even Vader and Han didn't pull off moves half as amazing). Moreover, I just want a genuinely good (not expecting great, but that would be nice) SW movie after TFA whelmed me and RO underwhelmed me.

For once, I almost wish that the trailers will start spoiling us and giving away more of the more imaginative stuff Rian apparently has in store.

Anything to quell the endless >waah waah ESB rehash complaining. They could have easily prevented this, but nope, first new thing from the movie we'll show are the gorilla walkers on a white salt flat planet.

Lucasfilm needs to start acting more confident. But after what happened in this week, I worry that they'll be stuck in the panic mode for good few more years.

Poe needs to become a character first, period. I like TFA and think Rey is legitimately a good character and I still can't wrap my head around the adoration for him.

Oh wait, Oscar Isaac quipping. Right, that's all a character needs to do to be considered good in this age of Marvel.

All it really needs is to have the sections holding the engines on to be bulked out to the same level as the OT version and extra bits of plating left on and it could fit into the ST perfectly.

The big B-17 style bombers from the TLJ trailer look awesome though. Interesting to see bomber craft on that scale in the SW universe after having fighter bombers be the norm.

Basically if we assume the prophecy is just "strike a balance in the Force by eliminating the Dark Side" than Luke definitively achieved that by redeeming his father, striking a balance between the light and dark that led to the destruction of the last two Dark Siders in the galaxy, leaving the Light aligned Luke as the sole winner
And naturally it didn't work because you can't strike a balance by destroying something, nor can you 'destroy' the Dark Side

The Gotra were convinced it was part of a weapons schematic due to its close resemblance, but it was just a cool design Aphra picked out at random when she was feeling rebellious in her college years

Pretty sure TPM doesn't say that the Midichlorians are force carrying particles.

The force has been a bloodline thing from day 1.
Anakin passed it down to Luke.

One of these explanations is much more satisfying and interesting and full of story potential than the other. Personally I've never minded Midi-chlorians but that's because I've always head canoned them as being indicative of Force sensitivity rather than causative, but I can see why people did and do get butt blasted over them

>>93422225
>One of these explanations is much more satisfying and interesting and full of story potential than the other.
No?
Midi-chlorians do not contradict Obi-Wan.

Two simple points.
1. force sensitivity was always bloodline based
2. Midi-chlorians are not the force

>>93422162

>Why does the concept of Midichlorians make everyone so butt flustered?

Because it turned something inherently unknowable and mystic into DBZ power levels.

Just like how Lucas turned the Jedi Order into the least interesting possible version of "magic-wielding space knights who save the galaxy" because he needed to have his terrible "Our Love Is Forbidden!" story-line. Lucas seemd obsessed with making the most boring variations of the promises his ideas implied.

>>93422238

>Midi-chlorians do not contradict Obi-Wan.

They also serve zero narrative purpose.

For all of its mistakes, the EU idea of "A Jedi can just inherently sense another Jedi" was a solid, mystical idea that didn't include anime power levels.

It's still not a bloodline thing.

The Force shares a bloodline in only the most extreme cases. We're literally only seen two cases of it;

The Skywalker family, likely due to Anakin being the Chosen One.

And Tiplee and her sister, which might have just been coincidence too.

>>93422225

This is not, and never has been, the case.

Personally, heavily modified magnaguard would be pretty awesome.
But I agree - B1s are great and need better post-war material than Aftermath.
Seeing as how we aw in Rebels that imperial procedure is to destroy active battle-droids on sight, I think it'd be awesome to see more stories of groups of these things surviving, on the run, cannibalizing and modifying themselves for years. What could a B1 become after a long time of this? Something awesome, I bet.

>>93422238
Obi Wan was talking about some mystical qi inspired stuff about how we are all one and stuff, midi-chlorians are too concrete and scientific by comparison
And it can't be bloodline based, otherwise you wouldn't get examples of Force sensitive just being randomly born into families that weren't Force sensitive before
I really hope the whole "Force sensitives have Force sensitive kids 100% of the time" thing gets left behind in the EU. As much as it justifies the Jedi's 'no wives no kids' policy its just a little too neat

>>93422270

I would argue that what he did with the Jedi was very interesting and not something you would expect to see in a blockbuster film series.

>They also serve zero narrative purpose.
>For all of its mistakes, the EU idea of "A Jedi can just inherently sense another Jedi" was a solid, mystical idea that didn't include anime power levels.
????
In the films the Jedi, even on the council, are depicted as not all being equally skilled/powerful.
That would make a Jedi using the force to find force sensitives to unreliable and dependent on that Jedi's attunment, not objectivity.

AND ONCE AGAIN THE FORCE WAS BIOLOGICAL IN THE VERY FIRST MOVIE IT IS A BLOODLINE THING AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN

>>93422270
>power levels
I am so sick to fucking death of this shit

Midichlorians are not power levels, nor are they the cause of the fucking force.

Qui-Gon DID sense Anakin's sensitivity, why do you think he checked his Midichlorians in the first place?

Midichlorians;
>Represent the potential of the force wielder
>Represent the growth of the Force user
>Could be used by Qui-Gon to confirm his suspicions of Anakin being the Chosen One
>Flock to force hotspots, are NOT the causation of the force

All of this shit about power levels, and midichlorians being/causing the force are just dumbshit RLM-tier retards spreading misinfo because they're too stupid to follow what was being said on screen. Why does nobody actually think about why Yoda has a high midichlorian count? Why are so-called Star Wars fans so fucking retarded when it comes to this topic?

It drives me insane.

>>93422297
>And it can't be bloodline based, otherwise you wouldn't get examples of Force sensitive just being randomly born into families that weren't Force sensitive before

The force is unequivocally shown to run in families even in the OT.

But Yoda wanted Luke to let go of his attachments in ESB.

really makes you think

>>93422271
Its also worth noting both those examples were twins, it might be a case where two kids are more likely than one to become attuned to the Force and then that connection is shared in the womb

>>93422331
>>93422324
Mate, it's not bloodline based, thats just the skywalker family.

TCW makes it very clear about how Force Sensitivity is discovered, and how much Midichlorians have to do with it.

And even then, you dont even need to watch TCW to understand

>>93422271
>>93422353
And where are the cases for Jedi with confirmed non force sensitive parentage?

>>93422331

Because it's a terrible concept and introduced meaningless confusion.

You know what would have also worked? If they weren't in the film. They don't even some some grander thematic purpose.

>>93422367

But Midi-chlorians aren't the force.
It's been 20 years and you still refuse to accept this simple fact.

>>93422367
The parents of those Force sensitive babies from that one episode of TCW spring to mind, as does the grandmother of that Force sensitive baby in Rebels
Beyond that, for reasons somewhat obvious we don't really get to see or hear about the parents of other Jedi. Anakin is the exception and we simply do not know who his father was

>>93422162
I don't have a problem with midichlorians or anything, but let's all just take a moment of appreciation -
Is there anyone quite as admirable for lore-enrichment as Luceno? He's bringing particle physics into it because he loves working on the lore and bringing new, interesting dimensions to it.
That was the best thing about Catalyst: the khyber crystal stuff. You can't work with them for too long because it starts to affect your sleep and dreams. They're a bridge between organic and inert matter. They actively conceal their structure on a quantum level. The Jedi "communicate" with them.
The Khyber-porn was amazing. Luceno's a class act for just this kind of thing.

>>93422380
>And? Interesting isn't synonymous with good.
In this instance it is.
Just as a more conventional take on Anakin's fall would have been less interesting, the Jedi being cloistered monks is an unusual choice that furthers the unique style choices of GL.

>>93422397
>Anakin is the exception
But here's another bloodline example right here
>>93422373

>>93422380
>You know what would have also worked? If they weren't in the film. They don't even some some grander thematic purpose.
Maybe it was needless lore that nobody asked for,that didn't really improve the movie.

But it also is NOT the harmful lore like everyone misunderstands. So often I see shit about power levels and Midichlorians causing the force, and it's just fucking wrong. If these people spent more time watching the movie, than watching shitty youtube personalities, they might understand it better.

There's also a fantastic TCW arc with Yoda that dives a bit deeper into the Midichlorian lore too, and again, all it is is taking the "the force binds everything together" to a microscopic level. It was never supposed to be anything more than that.

>>93422388
I never said they are the Force, I was just saying that offering a means of objectively and scientifically putting a number on someone's Force potential feels too detached from the mystical energy field that Obi Wan talked about
To be entirely honest I don't really mind the concept, I just think it could have been explained clearer by Qui Gon telling Anakin about the Force and explaining midi-chlorians as indicators for it

>>93422407
But the thing is, Luceno somehow drank the "fan" Kool-Aid or something because Midi-chlorians are never described as force carrying particles in the films.

>>93422319
>what he did with the Jedi was very interesting and not something you would expect to see in a blockbuster film series.
That's something I will always respect Lucas for.

The shit that you would see on the big screen in the summers of 1999, 2002 and 2005, are absolutely NOT the kind of shit that Hollywood would ever take risks on.

For better, and worse. But definitely in many cases, better.

That's what he said though.

It's literally functionally the same thing. There are always going to be people with more force potential than others, and seeing as we have evidence in the films and in TCW that the force is at least SOMEWHAT passed down through bloodlines, and that the Jedi need a way to CONSISTENTLY screen infants.

>>93422388

>But Midi-chlorians aren't the force.

Because it's a meaningless distinction. it's till adding a scientific element that adds nothing.

Making the immortals aliens in Highlander 2 doesn't technically mean they took out the mystical elements at the same time, that doesn't mean it wasn't a moronic narrative decision that damaged the series.

This Lucas defenders constantly splitting hairs with every single argument is getting more and more tiresome.

>>93422426

>. So often I see shit about power levels and Midichlorians causing the force, and it's just fucking wrong

Or maybe Lucas worded that scene poorly instead of your auteur theory frothing "the customer is always wrong" defence?

>>93422407
Luceno is one of my favorite Star Wars authors, and I am glad that he is one of the main writers of canon books.

He's done a very good job expanding the lore in the ROTS->ANH period. He basically set the stage for Rogue One, just as much as Rebels has in 3 seasons.

>>93422452
But the argument is about blood.

>>93422436
They are barely described at all, which is kind of the root of the problem. If Lucas had been explicit about them being indicators for Force sensitivity there wouldn't have been this 18 year long argument over them

I am not going to lie and say that the scene was clear as day with no room for misunderstanding.

But it also wasn't so bad that the misconceptions should be so commonplace in the community.

Especially post-TCW, but even excluding the show clearing the misconceptions up, this should never have been such a huge deal in the first place.

But taking TCW into consideration, it makes it exceptionally frustrating to me when I see the bullshit being parroted to this day. Not only is the debate so old and tired that it is not even worth arguing, but the truth about Midichlorians should be common knowledge by now. So it's honestly eye-rolling when someone shows up in /swco/ of all places still complaining about "power levels", as if the movies themselves don't shut that shit down.

this

>>93422162
That's one of the reasons why i love the DP novel. Luceno expanded on the Midichlorians in a way that i think fits what Lucas intended.

Like some species's Midichlorians make them immune to mind tricks. And exactly how Plagueis planned to use them to make himself immortal.

>>93422470
>If Lucas had been explicit about them being indicators for Force sensitivity

>>93422488

EU is irrelevant to this discussion. I shouldn't have to do homework have the story make sense.

>So it's honestly eye-rolling when someone shows up in /swco/ of all places still complaining about "power levels", as if the movies themselves don't shut that shit down.

Except it's literally written as a power level idea in the film.

>He has a higher Mid-cholrian level count then anyone else I've ever seen!

And you can bust actually and well actually at me all you want, that line from a dramatic standpoint is specifically indicating some measure of power being more impressive then another.

There is no other reason to write that line of dialogue like that, if not to make the characters or by extension the audience impressed at the large number.

I don't give a flying fuck what the EU has to say about it.

>>93422457
Me too, anon.
This kind of thing is the real strength of the expanded universe material. Star Wars, in its film and tv form, is broad-audience, mass-appeal stuff. But as fun and adventurous as it is, it wouldn't have become a lifelong favourite of mine if it wasn't for authors like Luceno adding systematic and thought-out depths to it - to the politics, the government, the science and lore.
I can enjoy the films, tv, and comics for the fun romps they are, and get my dorky in-depth down-the-rabbithole fix from the likes of Luceno.

>>93422488
>I am not going to lie and say that the scene was clear as day with no room for misunderstanding.
I wouldn't even give him that much.
There is nothing unexplained in TPM.
Midichlorians need force sensitivity to survive and are symbiotic with humans. The more there are, the more concentrated the force is around/in that person.

You'd have to be mentally slow to not understand that.

>>93422528
yikes
I can disprove your nonsense with one simple example.
Anakin from age 9 has a much higher Midichlorian count than Yoda.
BUT Yoda can go head to head with Dooku in AotC while Anakin gets recked.

BAM POWER LEVELS DIVPROVEN

>>93422552

>BAM POWER LEVELS DIVPROVEN

Oh Jesus Christ.

I'm not saying that Midi-Chlorians are inherently power levels. I don't believe that. I'm saying Lucas WROTE it that way.

>>93422579
But he didn't.

>>93422528
First of all, TCW is not EU. It's 100% canon, and came from George Lucas himself before he quit his creative position at Lucasfilm. TCW exists to further develop the world and characters he created. It's not "homework", it's just more Star Wars.

Secondly, as I mentioned multiple times in my posts, you don't even NEED to watch TCW. Yes, the show helps explain things much clearer, because there was obviously some confusion in the community, but it was never completely needed for someone to understand what Midichlorians are.

Third, there is nothing about Midichlorians that should make the story of Star Wars hard to understand. It was background lore, some fluff to explain why Qui-Gon was doing extra tests on Anakin beyond "I think he is the Chosen One". He needed proof that Midichlorians were flocking to Anakin.

>Except it's literally written as a power level idea in the film.
>"He has a higher Mid-cholrian level count then anyone else I've ever seen!"
And this is where you prove that you have fundamentally misunderstood what Midichlorians are.

So, lets take your own example. Anakin has a high Midichlorian count right? Higher than Yoda? Then explain to me, could Anakin defeat Yoda in a fight? Explain to me why Anakin and Obi-Wan were perfectly matched in their Force Push standoff in Episode 3? Suddently, Midichlorians aren't looking so much like power levels anymore, huh?

Anakin having lots of Midichlorians was supposed to represent him being the Chosen One. They flock to him because of it. It doesn't make him stronger, but it forshadows his potential to grow strong. That is it.

Just think about why Yoda has a high Midichlorian count in the first place, and you will have all the answers you need. Hint: He wasn't born with them.

>And naturally it didn't work because you can't strike a balance by destroying something, nor can you 'destroy' the Dark Side
This assumes that "balance" is an equal amount of Dark Side and Light Side... which is nonsense. There is no such thing as a "Light Side". Check the scripts for all three original films, you won't find a single reference to a "Light Side" or even a "Light". There's the Force, and it has a dark side. It's not something that needs to be balanced out, any more than a human body needs to balance out the amount of cancerous and non-cancerous cells it has.

>A Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware of the dark side. Anger... fear... aggression. The dark side of the Force are they.

Abrams doesn't understand this because he's approaching the setting from a standard, boring, and very Western/Christian perspective, when the original Jedi mythos is directly inspired by Buddhist tenets. The Buddha learned to transcend material attachments and desires, and so eject the poisons and evils of the world. He didn't need to balance out his Light Side of non-attachment with an equal amount of Dark Side by accepting Mara.

>>93422664

My fave OC donut steel droid is a class of medic droid from the local RPG campaign. The chassis is a decent performance humanoid built to be a tool user, it will usually wear modified Stormtrooper armor and carry its own gear.

Anyway, it's based on an old Imperial project. What happened was they based its language off actual soldiers and medics talking, to fit in well.

And then the prototype screamed abuse at Darth Vader for two minutes for trucking his dirty fucking cape into its beloved medbay. The situation was salvageable until one of the developers couldn't keep a nervous giggle in check a, well, it's not like a Darth can do anything but murder everyone when that kind of shit happens.

>>93422764
Designing a battlefield droid to fit in with soldiers by basically not being either 3PO or a beeping microwave is a pretty interesting idea.
I could imagine that kind of thing being based on the way clones carries themselves in the grand army, with nicknames replacing serial numbers.

>>93422664
All the stuff about destroying the Dark Side comes directly from Lucas, as does the idea that 'destroying' it will bring balance to the Force. That is one hundred percent him
But later on in TCW, we get that arc with Yoda based around exploring the Dark Side which reaches the conclusion that the Dark Side is something inherent to any Force Sensitive being that must be accepted and then overcome rather than outright rejected
Lucas clearly intended the take away to be that the Jedi (and by extension the majority of the galaxy since Jedi has become synonymous with Force sensitive both in and out of universe) have either forgotten or simply never bothered to fully understand the true nature of the Dark Side.
I don't mean balance in the sense of some 50/50 Grey Jedi bullshit, I mean balance in the sense of "I accept that I have these negative impulses, that the Dark Side comes from within not without, and I choose to rise above" instead of the Jedi's approach of never acknowledging the Dark Side accept as something you should avoid at all costs

>>93422849
>"I accept that I have these negative impulses, that the Dark Side comes from within not without, and I choose to rise above" instead of the Jedi's approach of never acknowledging the Dark Side accept as something you should avoid at all costs
I mean, the Jedi were clearly teaching some kind of "rise above" philosophy, because Anakin talks about the unconditional love being essential for the Jedi in AotC, and in RotS his conversation with Palpatine shows that the Jedi at the very least explain to Padawans where the Sith go wrong ("The Sith rely on their passion for their strength").

>>93422903
Anakin was talking about his own personal interpretation, and I doubt that interpretation would have flown very far around Obi-Wan or Yoda
And they might teach where the Sith go wrong as a warning, but they never take about how a Jedi should handle those emotions beyond "look to the Jedi teachings and meditate" advice like Yoda gives to Anakin when he talks about his visions of Padme's death

I don't get why the Dark Side is so bad, it grants you greater power.

The Jedi were just all pansies to scared to do what needed to be done and take control of the Galaxy. I reckon if Anakin's plan had worked he and Padme would have made the galaxy a better, freer and safer place.

It was good advice on Yoda's part, but one does wonder if he shouldn't have been more proactive/hands on. Although the scene is stating that Anakin can't do that and is meant to make us feel Anakin's isolation from the Jedi.

We were looking at roles for no combat droids for in-campaign reasons and this was the one that popped up, a bit like an HK series with the mind of a conscientious objector. Really valuable on the battlefield, utterly disgusted by the thought of picking up a gun.

Integral droid brains fir fighters have also popped up - again, they're not built to shoot the guns but they're very decent autopilots and do a good job of operating sensors and shields. And there's a heavy damage control droid based on the zero-g Stormtrooper armor.

>>93423138
It sounds like you've got a fun group with some interesting ideas. I'd love nothing more than a chill and comfy group into lore and fun concepts.
Where I used to live I had a brilliant RPG group but none of them were into Star Wars.
Moved to a new city a few years ago. Only group I can find just wants to play some dumb homebrew system of OP Jedi fighting Xenomorphs from the Alien franchize.
The search continues, I guess.

>>93422371
The real problem it's so easy to argue they're bloodlined based is because narrative weight. Of course Vader's kids are strong in the force and of course their kids would be too. That's just how stories work. What, are you going to have your super powered MC have a kid who just lacks these super powers? Fat fucking chance. This set up happens all the times in fiction because stories and characters are simply understood to develop a certain way when it comes to powers and kids.

It's why you'll see Force Sensitives, or any one with the local super power in other stories, come from people with no powers but rarely the reverse. As I recall, it's only really happened in Star Wars once, with the kids of the Jedi Council leader in SWTOR in a side story. And I think there might have been extenuating circumstances with that but I can't recall. Otherwise, it's simply expected anyone sensitive to the force will have all their offspring have similar skills.

>>93423138
Also, integral droid brains have always been an interesting and relatively underexplored concept for me.
Like, we know in this universe they can build droids like chop or R2 have complicated inner lives and emotional states. But what about big mainframes handling even more complex computations? Does the Scarif base main computer have feelings? Could a ship's autopilot/computer count as a 'character'?

Because using it is based on self interest. The cathartic sensation of using the Dark Side is such that it can warp the very nature of the person who embraces it, affecting their decision making abilities to go from calm to top-tier autistic in the blink of an eye (see Sheevspin). Once you taste it, you'll always want more. And the only way to get more is to create more of what creates the Dark Side in the first place.

Droid wipes are a mess ethically, at least on things of protocol droid levels of sapience and ability to communicate that sapience
In fact there was a C3PO one shot that explored that idea that ended with C3PO picking up his red arm from TFA to honor the memory of a droid who struggled with being the subject of multiple wipes and masters
And of course that got simplified down to "you probably didn't recognize me because of the new arm!" because JJ simply cannot let us have nice things without dropping a turd on them somewhere
>>93424274
Dooku got killed because of how the Dark Side was forced to work, and he was nearly killed a lot in TCW thanks to Dark Side bullshit. Also he probably wouldn't have ended up on the wrong side of the war in the first place if it wasn't for Palpatine
Maul saw his entire family die in front of him, went insane at least twice, nearly died himself and just in general had a long and miserable life purely because of the Dark Side.

Baka desu senpai. Padme never would've gone along with Anakins vision for a strong central authority, and Anakin would've thought her weak and foolish.

We only shit on people going dark side because there are zero canon, and not very many EU, examples of it not resulting in a totally retard or pointlessly cruel outcome. There's nothing wrong with being "in the middle" like the Bendu, but going dark side is essentially the embrace of power for it's own sake. The Jedi order practices restraint so they don't fuck up the galaxy with their magic powers. Even groups like the Nightsisters aren't so bad compared to Sheev's Galactic Ruse War. The Galaxy didn't even need Jedi control, it just need the Jedi to stop being bound to the Republic so they could see Chancellor Palpatine for the true source of corruption he was the whole time. The Jedi being in a position of power actually led to them becoming blind, and being destroyed. Same thing with Sheev's blindness to Anakins and Lukes love. Force users just fuck things up if they try to stay on top of the galaxy.

I think they hired JJ on the grounds of Spielberg said he'd do a good job of it, and he'd bring his own production company along so they could get TFA made faster, and as you say it turns out that JJ and Bad Robot can only really make JJ movies which can't capture the spirit of whatever it is they are trying to make properly because JJ has a mystery box fetish

He got his own comic for fuck sakes, what were they thinking with that? He a "talking pet" cliche, without an owner, who is used almost exclusively for laffs, but in recent years everyone is acting like he is a core OT character that is beloved and shit.

>>93426314
he's the organic equivalent of R2D2 and if you think R2D2 isn't a beloved iconic deep character in spite of his cinematic muteness, then I don't if you can be helped
same thing with Charlie Chaplin, Harpo Marx, Mumford from Twice Upon a Time, Spike from The Land Before Time, Herbie the Love Bug, the very Ewoks within Star Wars itself, etc etc

True, but no more than if he was smashing shit with a wrench yelling in Scottish.

I just think Chewbacca is overrated, doesn't add anything to the series, isn't funny, and most people are pretending to like him more than they really do, because he is an OT character

TR-8R

What is even worse is that LFL misinterpreted people laughing at the complete idiocy of that scene as a sign of affection and decided to add more of this in the next movies

>>93426460
He was in some official Star Wars poll, and they actually used TR-8R instead of his canon designation FN-2199.

>>93426530
The article they did on him correctly addresses him as Nines though.

>>93426460
I'm not so sure. Based on the Knights of Ren (and general "Knight" theme of design for everything in the ST. Maz's Castle and Phasma's armor, for example) I believe they were always intending to have more focus on melee in these movies, especially with characters Finn can actually fight.

>>93426460
Or, and stay with me here, its just that melee fights are a lot easier to choreograph and film to look interesting than firefights, but with a severe Jedi shortage in the universe they have had to introduce new melee fighters who don't use lightsabers to fill that gap

that's not really a McQuarrie design, that's Ralph McQuarrie's more refined painting of concept sketches and models made by Colin Cantwell (there's another one with the Cantwell Y-wings flying into a big hole in the death star), when McQuarrie was brought on more seriously he redesigned the Y-wing to look far closer to what would become the movie prop, same with the X-wing, which was originally vertically oriented in Colin Cantwell's design, and the Star Destroyer which was a lot smaller and looked straight out of 1930s Imperial Japan

I still dont fully grasp what these meedicloriuns are. Its just something floating in your blood and if you have them your more efficient with the force right? its not the force but something that can naturally occur and be in someones genes that basically gives them a natural buff on their force powers right? Basically Pure Bloods in Harry Potter and lesser Force Users are Mudbloods?

If you have them, then you have a higher affinity with the force.

In Rebels it suffers under imperial occupation, also a pretty common occurrance. Nothing is setting Ryloth as somehow more fucked than your average alien-inhabited planet.

With all these lore experts and Star Wars fans I'd like to ask your personal opinion on something.

I've been playing SWTOR off and on for awhile, I haven't done the new expansions but apparently it's very hard to place a Imperial Agent, Trooper, Smuggler, and Bounty Hunter in it and not a "Force User" the suspension of disbelief is fucking HUGE.

Now, if anyone here has played SWTOR you should know that even the "Non-Force Users" have been able to take down a whole lot of fucking shit in the game, from crazy ass powerful Sith and Jedi and much much more. There's also the planet Voss where even "Non-Force Users" are able to some how do the trial that's only usable by "Force Users"

Would it be to hard for BioWare/EA to add that possibly the so called "Non-Force Users" are at LEAST Force Attuned or Force Sensitive to some extent? One player said that in the EU it's suggested that Luck is influenced by the Force, as well as everyone's "Sixth Sense" so could one say that the so called "Non-Force Users" are able to tap into this to be able to stay alive for so long?

Because apparently and I need to state this, I'm not there yet (almost) that some of the things shouldn't even be possible unless you're playing a "Force User"

>>93429167
But the Midichlorians arent giving anybody force powers you dingaling. They are not the causation of force sensitivity, they simply flock to "force hotspots"

You're making this far to fucking complicated.

People with the force are like people who are holding a pile of shit. The flies are the Midichlorians depending on how much shit you have in your hands dictates how many flies are flying around your pile of shit.
