Did they ever actually explain how Ventress came back or is it still just "Somehow, Ventress returned..."
>>147159172Truth be told anon, I memory hole'd this shit so hard I can't even recall a single episode and I waited for This shit religiously. It's that forgettable.
>>147159172From what I remember, Ventress was meant to return anyway, since she did not 100% die on screen. Season 7 that we never got. You can find the original plans for season 7 if you look for 10 minutes.I say Clone Wars' problems started when Fedora Wolf Man convinced George to let Ahsoka live (instead allow her to leave). That 1 small "good" decision snowballed from there.
>>147159308bro she got fuckin buried and everything, she was supposed to be super dead
>>147159400This is me going from memory, but I was talking about her coming back in season 7, but dying 200% this time. In season 7.
>>147159172I'm not disagreeing with you anon. Yes Star Wars, even before the non-canon sequels, has a problem with "This guy was cool and introduced in a cartoon, NOW he's in some live action stuff." I get that. I just think in a galaxy there's gonna be some cool cats that survive and live through all the bullshit. If someone was 20 when Anakin died, they'd be 60ish by the time Sidious died for realzies this time.
>>147159172>>147159308>>147159400Nightsister magick has proven to be capable of resurrecting people before, so it isn't entirely impossible that she came back from the dead. When she was buried some weird magick shit did start happening. That said, it is a bit of a stretch to say she survived considering she was dead for several months before they buried her.
More to the point, no BB does not even try to offer an explanation for how she came back
>>147160211it's not a resurrection, they were puppeted zombies.
>>147159172They simply retconned that book and just pretended it never happened
>>147160488No, Nightsisters are capable of straight up resurrection. Talzin came back from the dead and regenerated a new body in Son of Dathomir.
>>147160539Which is good because Quinlan Vos was always shit, and the comic book prior to that was better.
>>147159172Bitch I just made this thread to 0 replies
>>147159172Did she ever die?
>>147161656no, only in a novelOP might as well be complaining that people don't "get" his Yuuzhan Vong cosplay at cons
>>147160601>No, Nightsisters are capable of straight up resurrection.No, they are not.>Talzin came back from the dead and regenerated a new body in Son of Dathomir.No, she did not. She was never dead to begin with. She was immaterial, but not dead. She was then fucking killed, in that very comic. Are you stupid?
>>147159172This is the last we see her. I dont care what the Filoni faggot did to her...
>>147159400>>147160211>>147160539>>147162105The book HEAVILY suggested her revival was coming.
>>147162105That was not "only a novel." It was a novel based on the story created by Lucas for the show, based on the scripts that had been written by Katie Lucas and Matt Michnovetz, based on the story reels that had been shot in proxy animation. She died. That arc was meant to be her conclusion and a send-off. Filoni just said "fuck that", because he can only rely on memberberries these days, and instead of properly finishing Clone Wars, he'd rather milk those characters fucking dry, like he did with Ahsoka, Cad Bane, what he's doing with Nightsisters in live-action, the Ones of Mortis, and now Ventress.
>>147162298No, it didn't. She was dead for months prior to her burial. She had become one with the Force. There is no coming back from the Netherworld of the Force, unless you are Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda or Anakin Skywalker at the end of ROTJ. Since Dathomir is strong with the Force, and all Nightsisters are deeply connected to it, there are some echoes, imprints of them there, and the ending merely symbolized Ventress becoming one with Dathomir, her home, and reuniting with her family, her sisters. That's all it ever suggested.
Boba also killed Bane in unfinished season 7. The actual duel they had was, imo, way fucking better than Book of Boba.I digress. Season 7 deaths are not canon.The book in which Ventress died was essentially just season 7 in print format, so not canon.But really, who gives a fuck anymore? Star Wars is shit and my Ventress loyalty is entirely oriented around jerking off to her.
>>147162305>It was aWas it actually IN THE SHOW. Because whatever the intention was or wasn't doesn't matter unless you put it on the screen.
>>147162305don't make me explain G-canon to you again old manit's tedious to do and we both know even George Lucas didn't consider the novels canon, ever, at any point
>>147162454Star Wars canon was always pretty flexible. Frankly I still only acknowledge the old EU stuff.
>>147162568>>147162577It was in the show, the scripts were written, the episodes were shot, retards. They showed quite a few scenes at Celebrations. There shit ton of asset turnarounds from those episodes. They were in the same form as the released Bad Batch and Cristal Crisis on Utapau, i.e. proxy animation, but with temp voices.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6K6KkpyqrcThey just weren't released, cuz Disney cancelled the show, so they had to turn it into a novel to be able to tell this story at least in some form. Just like Son of Dathomir was turned into a DarkHorse comic. It's TV episodes developed by Lucas turned into a novel, not just another irrelevant random novel from publishing.>>147162454Well, yeah. It was canon, until it suddenly wasn't, because they decided to milk the characters dry and make lame live-action adaptations to score some nostalgia points. They resurrected Cad Bane for live-action slop, even though Boba was meant to kill him in Clone Wars and that duel was fucking awesome unlike the live-action one, then they recycled the Clone Wars Kashyyyk arc for one shitty Bad Batch show episode, then we started having Nightsister survivors with the likes of Merrin, and then they reveal that the Nightsisters are actually in hiding in another Galaxy and are now returning to Dathomir, even though they're all supposed to be dead, then we have the hints of the Ones of Mortis, and I have a strong feeling that somehow they will return, even though they fucking died.
>>147162858>They resurrected Cad Bane for live-action slopHe was in The Bad Batch years before he showed up in live action.
>>147159172Filloni is all about characters returning from the dead in absurd ways.
>>147163808That one was George's idea though, not Dave's. A lot of people seem to forget that TCW was George's show. He was the creative drive behind it, not just the money.
>>147159172I want to palm her bald head
>>147163808Wasn't this a Lucas thing?
>>147163808Filloni really didn't have the influence or credit for a lot of Clone Wars, not until later on. When people say he did this or that, they are talking out of their ass.
>>147163808George did that. And I enjoyed it.
