Rebels objectively has a worse art style. It's only decent parts are reused assets from The Clone Wars.

For example, Lothal is all unused assets from The Utupau arc. Then you have things like pic related. It's not saying Rebels is bad, but to say that it's better or on par with Season 6 of TCW is just false.

Honestly they have a distinct humor and I can see why people like them. But despite their huge reddit appeal, they're basically normie as fuck.

No. They're memed about because of the Plinkett reviews of the Prequels, and their kind of terrible review of both TFA and RO. The former are posted by people without their own opinions on the Prequels.

Otherwise they make dumbass content like their terrible Space Cop movie, and generally funny best of the worst series.
>>
>>93979083
its called satire dumbass
>>
>>93979225
It's the same thing with the "Force tree Rey and Snoke are the reincarnation of brother and sister who created the Force" thing. We had images of the tree set for weeks before that story came up and people kept using the pics- which inspired the story- as proof that the story that came after it was real.

At some point it also mutated to include Mortis even though that wasn't what the original "leak" claimed.

Honestly I can understand their reaction because I had the same.
When episode 7 came out I was just happy to get more star wars, but it degraded in our collective mind as the year progressed.
When RO came out it kinda dawned on us that we were gonna get a new star wars film every year for at least the next decade. If RO is anything to go off of they are going to be devoid of any character or heart and use Nostalgia as a crutch to get by.
From what we can tell episode 8 is gonna be a episode 5 rehash and the Han Solo movie is having legitimate director and actor issues.
The amount of star wars movies is gonna increase by over 100% in a fourth of the time that it has already existed.

news flash retard, the little know reason xwings and tie fighters were in it is because it takes place in the same universe as the rest of star wars, its like watching the new episode of game of thrones and being like "what the fuck horses and swords, trying to take advantage of my season 1 nostalgia you jews"
>>
>>93979979
There were no X-Wings or TIE's in the prequels, there were precursors.

People expected that the Sequel Trilogy as such, would have successors. But visually they're almost indistinguishable.

This was a creative choice made to help sell TFA on nostalgia, as well as a misunderstanding on JJ's behalf of what is most important to Star Wars,
>>
>>93979979
That is the one of the few thing the prequels did really right is they made up their own designs completely. In TFA its the same ships but with little details changed and a new coat of paint. Do something new.
>>
>>93980008
i was talking about rogue one, i think the complaints about TFA are completely justified

>>93980008
It makes sense to complain about it in TFA, but complaining about it in RO when it literally takes place 2 days before the OT is ridiculous.

Novelization has them be just other components to the Death Star.

However that is, as we know, just an adaptation, with information not included in the movie or other media, and thus can be ignored as non-canon. If the LSG decides to run with a different ideas for those names, they can.

To be fair aces having their own, sometimes silly, liveries is not a bad thing.

I can kinda live with the Super X-Wing because it's not like the NR really had a reason to develop anything radically different in relatice peace and Incom probably just sold them an upgrade, which at least makes it justifiable in universe. I got nothing on the recycled TIEs though.

I thought the art style was really bad because it was so inconsistent. I really liked the Ralph McQuarrie visual style for the setting and some models like the ships but many of the character models didn't work well for me. You had decent character models for characters like Obi-Wan, Maul, Hera and Darth Vader but then you had Ezra, Anakin and the clones.

He has one that is cracked, and that's the reason for the crossguard. iirc it is incredibly volatile and could explode at any moment, but he is keeping it from doing so.

so here's what's curious about the various incarnations of Anakin:
The first time you actually see his face is Sebastian Shaw in 1983 in Return of the Jedi.

Coincidentally, it turns out that a young Sebastian Shaw looks quite a bit like Hayden Christensen, who would play the adult Anakin Skywalker in the prequel trilogy before he put on the suit.

Hayden Christensen's performance was then stylized for Genndywars, and in spite of the extremely heavy caricature, it still managed to immediately evoke Hayden.

Then in TCW, you have a design that looked less like Hayden, and more like the Genndywars version made somewhat less exaggerated, that evokes the character rather than trying to accurately represent his appearance.

Then in Rebels, you have a rounded more realistic design of the TCW model Anakin, that is almost totally divorced in appearance from any actual possible appearance of his portrayers, EXCEPT for the incredible coincidence that he happens to look identical to the younger David Prowse, the physical actor under the Vader suit who was never seen or heard in the films.

Then you have Salvador Larrocca who traces movie stills of Hayden from ROTS and can't even do that right.

And finally you have Forces of Destiny where Anakin is turned into a cute girl with major DSL.

I actually did because a Star Wars series set leading up to the Rebellion was the thing I wanted most after watching TCW, and the fact that it was revealed to stylize itself after Ralph McQuarrie designs was the most boner inducing thing a Star Wars autismal like me could hope for. So far I have not really been disappointed except for Sabine who is very underwhelming but who looks like she's finally going to be a good character in S4

>>
>>93986263
At the risk of being a pleb (which I probably am among other things), ESB is too high above the others. Then again, I'm openly biased towards everything that happens once the movie reaches Bespin. It's a personal platinum standard for me in terms of the franchise. Barring that:

RotJ = TCW > ANH > RotS > R1 > Rebels > TPM > AotC > TFA

The separation between preferences on a couple of these is pretty slim. TPM comes out ahead ever so slightly because of battle droid activation sequence and the instrumental intro to Duel of the Fates. Kind of hard to do a proper placement due to focusing on individual moments instead of the works as a whole.

I think it has the best soundtrack of all of the films so far, not a single bad or underwhelming track. Its got really great effects and visuals, only being topped in that department by Rogue One. It's the culmination of everything the PT has been building towards, and I think it really hits the mark. Anakin turns to the Dark Side, the Jedi are wiped out, Palpatine rises to power, and the Empire is created from the ashes of the Republic. Padme dies, the twins are born, and they're separated and hidden for their own safety.

Do you think Red Letter Media unintentionally ruined Star Wars forever with those dumb Plinkett reviews? Like, everyone was talking about them, sharing them, forcing other people to watch them. Lucas got fed up with it and sold the franchise to Disney, which proceeded to jettison the EU and build the cash-grab universe. Is it possible that two fat fucks from Wisconsin helped bring about the destruction of this franchise?
>>
>>93987106
I guess ANH is my favourite because you can put it on, and once it's over, you feel done. It's its own story. it's comfy, it has some of the best moments, and I genuinely like Tarkin. Especially after his novel. RO is my second because it's fucking amazing when you supplement it with Catalyst. I personally liked what it was going for, and I can definitely see peoples criticisms. But overall. i just love star wars. It would be dumb to make a list where I HAVE to have something in last place

Does Luke fucking about as a bush pilot really count as pilot training in a universe where almost everyone knows how to fly a starship? But I digress I still maintain that if Rey had just one or two traits less, making Fin more useful in the team, it would've been so much better.

No, he just used examples of when something happens in both trilogies. For example he legit used "Vader speaks to the emperor via hologram" as a direct copy of the OT. What he doesn't realise is that film can share concept and ideas and you can not heavily rely on them.

I just had a little revelation about Snoke and Kylo. Their force beliefs are more political than spiritual similar to the Jedi. The Jedi ultimately are diplomats who try and keep up to date with politics so they can keep the peace. The Sith are the opposite where they want spiritual power over people's souls. Snoke and Kylo Ren think the more emotional and spiritual aspects of the force like anger and compassion are childish and chaotic where their political beliefs combined with contemplation and use of the force will bring order to the galaxy. In a way you could say that Kylo and Snoke are like prequel era Jedi extremists who would kill anyone including Innocents if they proved a threat to their version of 'order' and 'balance'.

I'm becoming increasingly convinced that Lucas intended the Darth Plagueis book to be canon.

The backstory given for Sifo-Dyas lines up perfectly with the the TCW episodes about him that were made 2 years after the book came out. (Sensing a coming war etc).

Well, there is one inconsistency.
In Plagueis, Sifo-Dyas has a top knot AND beard, while in TCW he only has a top knot IRRC.

The fact that Lucasfilm is going out of its way to not give a race or any details for Plagueis makes me believe that they intend on taking him in a direction completely separate from the novel.

That's exclusionary, not inclusionary. My horrible erotic fanfictions are technically "canon" by that definition, That's a far cry from being developed with Lucasfilm to FIT IN positively rather than tread lightly so as not to disturb it.
>>
>>93989992
Then why was the supposed Lucas answer to the Sifo-Dyas question in TCW first presented in the Plagueis book?

The most likely answer is that Georgw told Luceno new info.
Otherwise it means that the TCW episode was going off Luceno.

No JJ.

It's the difference between a a literal x wing superweapon trench run, and an attack on a droid control ship
>>
>>93990131
it's not remotely likely that Lucas had contact with any EU writer, the latter example is far more likely because TCW always pulled from EU sources, because the EU was technically owned by Lucafilm, not the writers themselves

also it could just be a coincidence, it wouldn't be the first time

And yet he was Palpatine's master and had a droid named 11-4D in canon, as per the book Tarkin.

>it's not remotely likely that Lucas had contact with any EU writer
And here I thought you actually knew what you were talking about.
When Luceno wrote Plagueis, he was in dircet contact with Roffman, who was in direct contact with Lucas.

No other EU book was written in such a way.
There are usually more levels between Lucas and a book author.

I was always fairly optimistic, because I loved TCW and Filoni. When I saw the initial trailer and the obvious drop in budget, I was wary. But the fluid animation and excellent cast performances in the first episode confirmed to me that I was going to be able to enjoy the show nontheless. And Rebels' artstyle grew on me too, the team really took advantage of their situation and made it work.

If TCW was a huge church glass painting, then Rebels is what happens when you smash it to pieces, take some shards, and mold it into a nice little sculpture to start over painting again.

You seem biased. It's an objective fact that Luceno wrote,the book with closer access to Lucas than any other EU book.

That's not an opinion or an unsubstantiated claim.
It's a cold hard fact.

Let's all back up.

Here are the FACTS.
1. Luceno bypassed the usual person that EU authors bounced Ideas off of and was speaking directly with a man who talks to Lucas frequently.
2. Sifo-Dyas has the same reason for making the clone army in TCW and Plagueis, but Plagueis was released first.

Tell me why I shouldn't draw the conclusion that Roffman told Luceno Lucas's planed canon backstory for Sifo-Dyas?

>>93993025
wikipedia say:
>The character and Ridley's performance have received critical acclaim. Joe Morgenstern of The Wall Street Journal proclaimed that Rey is "a woman warrior with the stylish ferocity of a kung-fu star", praising "the verve [Ridley] must have been born with plus the skill she must have acquired as a young actress coming up in England", later adding "It's hard to imagine what the movie—and the sequels to come—might have been if they'd cast the wrong person, but here Daisy Ridley is in all her unassuming glory, and all's right with the galaxy".[44] Richard Roeper described Ridley's portrayal of Rey as "a breakout performance", continuing by calling the character "tough and resourceful and smart and brave".[45] In a personal essay, Nicole Sperling of Entertainment Weekly wrote about her daughters feeling empowered after viewing the film, stating, "They never commented on how pretty Rey is. They never had to flinch because Rey was a sexual object to some man in power. They just felt strong. Equal".[46]

>Some fans expressed opinions that Rey is too skilled, despite her inexperience during The Force Awakens, making her a "Mary Sue"-type character.[47] Robinson concedes, "let's face it, Rey is kind of a Mary Sue character". However, Robinson goes on to write "She's a fantasy wish-fulfillment character with outsized skills, an inhuman reaction time, and a clever answer to every question—but so are the other major Star Wars heroes".[43] Other outlets have argued that the term carries an inherent gender bias,[48] and that categorizing Rey as a "Mary Sue" holds her to a double standard as the male characters from the original trilogy did not face comparable criticism.[49] Caroline Framke of Vox wrote "While my kneejerk reaction to criticism of Rey was that it's absolutely in the wrong, I have to admit that questioning her merits isn't inherently misogynistic. The real problem is that there's an undeniable false equivalence at play".[48]
>>
So the Darth Maul comic's 'NEXT ISSUE' page is the cover of the Mace Windu comic. This only further implies that we're getting a steady flow of prequel character minis that will likely be collected together in an omnibus in a few years called something like 'Fall of the Republic'.
>>
>>93993130
They just do that with the miniseries anon. At the end of one miniseries, they will often put issue #1 of the next miniseries in the preview page.

However I do agree that the Windu comic is the first of a series about Prequel Jedi.

>>93993127
>The real problem is that there's an undeniable false equivalence at play"
How ironic. The false equivalence is tying to say Luke was as OP as Rey.

What Rey really represents is a growing disparity between 4chan types and "normalfags", because normalfags know or feel as though she is a shitty character, but don't care. They don't fucking care outside of a few clickbaity articles on.

What some people on here don't understand is that most people don't give a shit about character writing quality or quality anything even a quarter as much as they do.

So apparently all Poe has left to do in his search for Tekka is go to the planet Arthon (which Grakkus told him about in issue 6) where the Ottegan Assault will happen and both Poe and Kylo will learn that Tekka went to Jakku. For some reason they're padding the comic out until like issue 20 where Poe is finally tasked with finding Tekka. My guess is this will be the final issue where the Ottegan Assault happens like a day before The Force Awakens.

WOW WHOA WHO COULD HAVE FORESEEN THIS SHOCKING TURN OF EVENTS IM GLAD I TUNED IN TO ANOTHER STEAMING PILE OF FUCKING NOTHING FILLER FLUFF
it's a totally pointless comic unlike son of dathomir which fulfills an important storytelling role, and the Poe comic tries (but fails) to make Poe a character and explain the shit that's going on right before TFA, but at least it takes unexpected turns from time to time, this is more predictable than Anakin turning to Vader in ROTS

The new canon seems to be full of shit like this. They take a really intriguing idea (Darth Maul before Phantom Menace, Obi-Wan and Anakin on a mission before Attack of the Clones) and end up making a nothing filler story with it rather than giving us actually important information. If it were like the old EU where there was a constant influx of stories, it'd be fine, but the new canon is such a slow drip right now.
>>
>>93994851
Not the same guy pal.

I don't classify TCW, Rebels or Ro as Neu. The term only refers to other materials outside of them.

Literally nothing happens in the books that adds any thing you need to know about or has wider consequences.

>>93994920
You're wildly and totally wrong, and it's ok that you admitted as much via your very unintelligent post.

>>93994944
Literal definition of moving the goalposts, that's the biggest No True Scotsman I ever saw. They're canon material outside the main saga of films untouched by the EU purge. That's the new "EU" although referring to it as an expanded universe at all is disingenuous sour grapes from EUfags, when all the side content is just as canon and pertinent as the movies.

>If it were like the old EU where there was a constant influx of stories, it'd be fine, but the new canon is such a slow drip right now.
Splinter of the Mind's Eye in 1978
Han Solo Adventures trilogy in 1979
Marvel comics from 1977-1983
Lando Calrissian trilogy from 1983
Droids and Ewoks nelvana cartoons from 1986
Heir to the Empire in 1991
That's the entire EU before the mid-90s boom. 15 years of nearly nothing, then bumps and grinds for a few years until the absolute glut of post-TPM content. Star Wars has received more and a higher rate of content releases since 2014 than any other time, it's just that now we have to actually live through the wait instead of binging on pre-released stuff over the course of 20-30 years in a few months.
>>
>>93995001
I don't agree.
As much as I love TCW, it doesn't occur for me. I can't have Dooku meet Anakin and Obi Wan literally every other week and then say stuff like he does in ROTS. Same with Ahsoka and Mandalore. That stuff doesn't connect to me.

I still use the old tier system mainly because it feels right.

That's why I used Neu instead of Canon.
>>
>>93995001
Ok so give me one example of something Lost Stars changes about the greater star wars universe. It doesn't even add much to the battle of jakku that couldn't be gathered by looking at the wreckage in 7.

Chewbacca too. Back up your arguments here. I can see how Thrawn at least introduces the Chis, but even that isn't a big deal because it's currently self contained in the book

>>93994920
Are you insane?

Thrawn is subtly setting up the origins of the First Order, as well as being an absolutely solid origin story to one of the franchises best villains.

It is absolutely important to the Canon

It doesn't. Like I said, I adored Lost Stars and Thrawn, but they are definitely in the camp of content filler. Not that there is anything wrong with that, they are fantastic standalone stories that exist in the greater universe.

You don't seem to understand what filler is. A romance between original characters does nothing when it comes to expanding the continuity. Again, it's a great story, but not one that is important by any means.

>>
>>93995318
All it did in showing Jakku was confirm a star destroyer crashed, which was already gatherable by the ep7 trailer that came out first. I will give you a break though and admit that it IS the first confirmation we get that the new republic won the battle, something I didn't imediately assume when I saw the trailer.

You still can't explain Chewbacca. That shit is full on filler
>>
>>93995306
>>93995312
If you're generally not the same guy, then you're bringing the same shitty posts as he did.

He would try and say that everything in canon is meaningless filler that was just to "set up" something else, and used this as his basis of why Canon is bad.

He completely ignored the importance of character development, or the strong self contained stories that we have had, or the characters and stories that do have strong overarching importance across the greater franchise, despite canon only being 3 years old.

Basically, it was complete cherrypicked EUfagging to the extreme, and by pointing fingers at canon with the same "this is filler!" shit, you're getting dangerously close to him.
>>
>>93995369
I'm not trolling. I'm counting filler as anything that doesn't introduce any concepts or major events that couldn't already be explained in an earlier work.

I already admitted I love these books. Jeez, not everyone is a troll
>>
>>93995383
I'm not the other guy, im not going to say that Chewbacca isn't filler.

But the notion that most of canon is filler is simply wrong. Lots of the "set up" and "reveals" have been important and engaging, and the stories being told have been fun too. From the big movie Rogue One, to the smaller short stories like The Levers of Power.

The very concept of "filler" in Star Wars is fucking absurd and bullshit anyways. You guys dont know what real filler is.
>>
>>93995413
You don't understand what filler is.

If something is a strong self-contained story with character development, it's not fucking filler.

By YOUR shitty definition of filler, the only "important" Star Wars media would be the OT + TFA, because those are the only things that progress through the timeline significantly in a linear fashion. But you know thats retarded way to see things.
>>
>>93995413
>I'm counting filler as anything that doesn't introduce any concepts or major events that couldn't already be explained in an earlier work.
Well then, again, going solely by the examples you cherrypicked, and given that I have already made my arguments, I think the burden of proof is on you to show how Thrawn, Lost Stars, and Chewbacca are nothing but filler.
Thrawn, the novel that fleshed out who Thrawn was and how Pryce came to be the villain she is on Rebels
Lost Stars the most critically acclaimed new canon novel of all that pits a genuine romance against the major events of the Star Wars saga
Chewbacca, the ONE AND ONLY WOOKIEE-CENTERED STORY EVER

>>93995433
I'm not the guy that says most of it is. He's got his own weird opinions. I am able to admit however when certain things I like ARE filler, such as Thrawn and Lost Stars
>>
>>93995386
Self contained stories are fine but not if that's all there is.

There is nothing that is as creative as some of the out there EU. It's too safe.

I don't want that sort of Monster of the week story. I want one solid event that changes up something and then follows it through.

Carving of Ilum. Give us that instead of skating around it.

There is too much that is implied instead of just going there.

We actually learned that in the book Smugglers Run.

The Chewbacca book revealed that he then gave away the medal to a slave he freed, which was motivated by his own enslavement.

Life Debt continues this development by having him and Han attempt to liberate Kashyyyk.

>Reminiscent in design of the Empire's TIE interceptor and Darth Vader's TIE advanced, Kylo Ren's TIE silencer is an angular fighter equipped with laser cannons and missile launchers.

Don't worry, they are. The novel Bloodlines shows the New Republic facing some internal problems during peacetime in the years before TFA. Its politicians ended up arguing a lot on several issues. This led to factions being formed in the senate. It sucked too, because everyone knew that progress was just about to happen before an FO agent revealed Leia's ancestry to the entire galaxy. Then that's how we got the Resistance fighting a proxy war for the Republic.

>How did Leia not succumb to the Dark Side upon witnessing this idiocy?

Lots and lots of Corellian wine.

Ties draw the eye towards a man's chest and then lead them down to his waist. For a man who's fit, this is flattering, as it emphasizes the broadness of their chest/shoulders and highlights his v-taper, which serves to make hif figure more masculine. They only serve no function if you're a DYEL or a landwhale who has nothing to show, or even worse, has things best left hidden.

Well, she never told Ben, even though he's TWENTY-THREE at the time of Bloodlines. I seem to remember something about her just not having Luke's capacity to forgive, which is understandable, considering what happened to Alderaan.
>>
>>93999243
Did her and Kanan ever fuck?
>>
>>93999143

She kind of puts it to the back of her mind and stores it away like a bad memory until the climax. Leia reflects on it a lot in the novel as knowing she's the daughter of a genocidal warlord. However she comes to terms with it as she believes that Anakin was actually her father and not Vader iirc. But she still thinks fondly of Bail Organa being her father.
>>
>>93999143
She struggles hard with it. She doesn't ever tell Kylo, who has to learn it when he's 23 and it gets out to the public against Leia's will. She doesn't forgive Vader and is kind of disturbed by how favorably Luke views him in retrospect. I think Luke is even described as having a "beatific" smile when talking about it, which is creepy.

Considering Vader's legacy was part of what corrupted her kid's mind, I don't imagine her feelings have gotten any warmer.

TLJ is going to have Vader's force ghost at some point, right?
>>
>>93999448

probably nope, so you thank casuals and OTfags for that
>>
>>93999448
Vader died shortly after shafting the Emperor, anon. Anakin's Force Ghost might appear, but that's all rumor and speculation at the moment.
>>
>>93999528
fug, that was literally the only thing I was looking forward to. If there's not Anakin ghost I probably won't even go see it.

Is it wierdd that I like KOTOR's gameplay? Everyone here seems to shit on it.

I like it. I'm one of the few people who enjoy turn based combat.

Frankly, I wish we could get HD ports of the two KOTOR games, but I doubt it will ever happen because modern Bioware is shit and it would be Legends material that they would be re-releasing
>>
>>94000663
The mobile port of 1 is as close as you'll get to an update/port, but 2 at least got a few updated on steam to make it better with modern systems.

Missed opportunities all over this trilogy. Silencer isn't even a role of any kind and Suppressor would lend to Kylo's character

> I can't have Dooku meet Anakin and Obi Wan literally every other week and then say stuff like he does in ROTS.

No, that's just you being inflexible with context. Anakin and Obi-Wan only fought Dooku three times throughout the course of the show. Each time Anakin gets curbstomped almost too handily.

>I can't have

It's not up to you, especially considering if that's your problem, Anakin fought Dooku once more after AotC in Legends and thus your tier system, in the Clone Wars game for Gamecube and Xbox.
