is it actual anime or just animesque?
>>152037357Actual anime from Production IGThe other seasons of Visions are anthologies where each episode is done by a different anime studio. This is the first to be launched into it's own thing.
Part of me wishes Visions focused on canon stories, but the other part of me is happy that they seem to be pushing this as the star wars equivalent of a "what if" project, which would be absolutely horrendous in any other scenario.
Doubling down on my opinion from last thread, Everything with the TCW art style should just be wrapped into a single ongoing anthology series. Call it "Tales from the Galaxy"It's aggravating to watch them play this game where we have to pretend The Bad Batch, Maul, and the various Tales Of series are fundamentally differentSome seasons would be it's own thing like the Bad Batch, some would vary episode to episode.
I think F is the only Disney Era Jedi I like.
Star Wars is completely directionless right now and I don't give a single shit about it.Andor is where I'm checking out.
>>152037817There's some sort of climax the filoni projects are building towards, but everything is too vague to get a feel of the direction. Hopefully the Mando movie and Ahsoka S2 actually starts to set up some sort of overarching conflict that we can lead to If not, I'm happy to wait for the Old Republic push
>>152037852I don't hate Filoni's storyline as much as some people do (Rebels had moments of kino), it's just I'm sick of the things in his storyline. I don't want to hear anything more about Jedi or Sith or the Empire or anything else that's just digging up themes from the Prequels and OT and trying to pretend that's the future of the franchise. It's not the future, at all. It's more like one very long epilogue.
>>152037332i hated Visions with its teen girl jedi shit. none of these stories are good and all the same regurgitated crap.
>>152037867I think they know that if future viewers are going to take the sequel era seriously, the Palpatine seeds need to be planted (even if it's retroactively), but you are right, it's aggravating to get to the season finale of a show and find out the big reveal is that palpatine is working on clones. Like, we know. It would be an easier pill to swallow if it was that AND some other climax being established, but right now the only other thing being teased is a Thrawn showdown, which looses it's meaning when he's already been the antagonist and defeated multiple times.
>>152037332Is the furry one getting a full series next after Zootopia 2 made nearly 2 billion bucks?
>>152037916Thrawn and a viable Imperial Remnant are what need to be set up. The First Order should be treated as a separate issue. Think further than just the Sequel trilogy (which we're rapidly leaving behind culturally) and set up the next one. Focusing on justifying the Sequel Trilogy is just stabbing yourself over and over.
>>152037332Still split on Mando & Grogu. Even if its fun it still looks like a tv movie. Maybe not the best 'Star Wars returns to theatres' event to have.
>>152037332>mfw george lucas should have sold star wars to japan
>>152038090Which Japanese company would you have forced to buy Star Wars?
>>152037916>>152037935>Think further than just the Sequel trilogy (which we're rapidly leaving behind culturally) and set up the next one.>Thrawn in Ashoka S2 brings up the Grysks, we get a glimpse of them in the other galaxy.>Dawn of the Jedi movie establishes them as a major ancient force in the galaxy, keeping them as a background faction>Reys NJO movie has them invade in full force, movie ends with one of their main warlords or generals being taken out, establishes the era going forward >Palpatines contingency was created with the anticipation that they would get to him before the Rebels didTrust the plan
>>152038090>>152038126>Sony gets Star Wars>Everything is ten times worseThanks
>>152038137The shadow council in Mando and Grogu mentioning that Palpatine had planned for the Grysks, or even just referring to them as an extraterrestrial force, would be absolutely kino. I'd be on board immediately
>>152038043I'm worried its going to ruin the momentum of the other films desu. I can't believe it was given priority over the other projects that would have been much more eventful. I assume that the plan is to trust the pull of Grogu, but that will only get you so far when your film is shot in the fucking Volume
>>152038209Exactly. Plus I feel like the series lost some of its momentum after the mixed response to the last season
>>152037332Cool now Disney can be mediocre at anime too.
>>152038126Bandai
>>152038137>Trust the planThis phrase always prefaces disaster. It really doesn't matter what they do, they could put out a perfect new trilogy, have the Grysks all be armed with Lightsabers and shit, have Jar Jar reveal he's the Grysk Emperor who's been manipulating the past century from the shadows, and it'll still leave a bad taste in everyone's mouth when they see Rey leading the NJO and not Luke.
>>152038137So just the fucking Yuzan Vong 2.0?
>>152038500That's basically what they are from a narrative standpoint.
>>152039342To be fair we don't actually know what the plan is with them yet. It's easy to anticipate a Vong parallel but it could just as easily be a setup for a Chiss project
I can't believe there's still slavery in the galaxy. The Republuc's anti-slavery laws-
>>152038126hmmm...sega just for shits and giggles but also because we all could get more fan stuff due to them being more liberal with fans on that regard.
>>152039897I need to learn how to draw sexy twileks. I feel like it's my calling
>>152038356>it'll still leave a bad taste in everyone's mouth when they see Rey leading the NJO and not LukeI doubt it. It's been a decade since Luke passed the torch. The only people still caught up on it are the people who hate the prequels and shit
They don't actually have to address the sequels at all. There's A LOT of time between Return and Force where Luke is said to have rebuilt the Order and Leia the Republic. They could set adventures in that time period as they slowly phase the sequels out of continuityOr just set shit in the High Republic, that has its fans I'm told
>>152040108The sequel era itself is honestly like two years at the most. Only 6 if you count it as starting when Luke went into hiding. No matter which way you cut it, there's more time between the OT ending and the ST starting than the OT and ST eras combined. There's a million stories you can tell in that period that don't need to involve the parts of the ST that people would rather forget
>>152037332Still waiting on Visions seasons 1 & 3 to get actual subtitles & not dubtitles.
>>152040517That implies they were originally scripted in Japanese. I don't know if that's the case.
>>152038137I'm good.
>>152040532They were made in Japan & the japanese audio doesn't match the english audio/subs.
>>152037817You think they could've found someone with uglier ears and a bigger wart on the face or that was the worst one they could do?All within the limits of being able to loosely read a script out loud for her dialogue lines, of course.
>>152038126Sega or Squenix would both be capable of making a kino Star Wars game, but they'd both probably just sit on the IP until they sell it off again
kenobiiiiiIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>152037332Anime is always east origin. And offtopic It's not from Japan?
>>152037377This series made a full circle, from being inspired by Japanese films to inspiring anime and finally becoming an anime itself.
>>152041581???
>>152042084What's wrong with your faaaaaaaaaaaaace?!
Considering how much focus they've gotten in recent years it's odd Ahsoka and Saw have never met up again post Clone Wars.
>>152037332Wait hang on, have they never released the Shadow Lord trailer outside of what was shown at the convention?
Would you want a OT cartoon set between IV and V?
>>152042440No, they always do this shit
>>152042628They could pretty easily adapt the comics to an episodic adventure of the week type thing. I don't know if most star wars fans could handle the level of pulp though
>>152042871Those comics suck so I'd rather not.
>>152042628Nah. That whole period has been covered with the comics so there's not really any room. They should've done one though.
>>152042628I'd rather we got an animated or CGI show set between VI and VII starring the OT heroes. Show them doing good things like fighting Imperial Remnants or helping to build the New Republic. Maybe even give Luke an apprentice. Yeah, we all know the sequels will come and sit the bed, but knowing Episode 3 is coming didn't stop the Clone Wars from being good.
>>152037817At this point my interaction with Star Wars is justPlaying Thrawn's Revenge and Fall Of The Republic, sometimes replaying Jedi Outcast and AcademyReading old EU comics from time to time and infrequently checking out new ones
Hold on did they really kill Scorch in the Bad Batch? What about the rest of republic commandos?
>>152043405Kinda. They don't really focus on it.
>>152043415Kinda lame. Commandos being clapped is a foregone conclusion since they joined the Empire, but they at least should have went out with a bang.
>>152043430At least he dies fighting.
>>152037775mating press F
>>152043440layered
It's 2026. Let's leave Onions Wars in the fucking past with Marvel
>>152043809Ahsoka, crush his skull, please.
>>152043809Disney will never let it go. They ran it to the ground & can't even get Marvel to produce new printings of the classic EU comics. But you better believe they'll keep trying to half try.
>>152042339I always found rebels and rogue one odd when they started treating saw like a boogyman we were meant to know out of the blue when he barely had a presence beforehand.Just a pretty nothing character that people hype up. I don't dislike him but I genuinely don't get it.
>>152043440Impressive! Most impressive.
>>152042339I fucking hated how Saw was wanked for a few years.
With the Mandoverse probably getting less focus after The Mandalorian and Grogu and Ahsoka, what era would you like Lucasfilm to explore next? Personally, I'd love Post-The Rise of Skywalker since the galaxy's kind of a mess with both governing bodies being fundamentally destroyed.
>>152043845>treating saw like a boogyman we were meant to know out of the blue when he barely had a presence beforehand.>Oh my gosh, it's Slop Gayera! THE SLOP GAYERA! THE HARDCORE DARK AND EDGY REBEL LEADER WHO'S TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL AND OTHER REBELS EVEN DON'T REALLY LIKE HIM! He's so fucking cringy.
>>152043986>>152044016You forgot his retarded fanboys>OMG HE'S LITERALLY REBEL VADER!
>>152044011>Post-The Rise of SkywalkerThat's probably the next big push for movies. As for what I DON'T want to see, it's more shit set between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. I'm sick and tired of that era getting wanked.
>>152044011For an era that is supposed to be overused, the actual Galactic Civil War is surprisingly empty as a period. That shit lasted longer than the Clone Wars but all we really saw on screen was Yavin, Hoth, and Endor. There were entire pitched campaigns that only appear in comics nobody read or a couple of Battlefront tie-in novels.I want to see an actual animated series that takes the Clone Wars structure of having the Big Three (in this case Luke, Leia, and Han) as central protagonists and having various other episodes explore things without them. Have the Ghost Crew (or what's left of them) running around as a secondary team, use Old Man Rex as a link between Luke and his father, there's a lot of things that could be done.
>>152044218I think that period's the most extensively covered in books and comics.
>>152044011I want something crazy like Legacy was to Legends.
>>152044255Yeah but you have to admit that shit's not exactly mainstream. This isn't the 90s where the only Star Wars content getting made were books.
>>152044218>the Big Three (in this case Luke, Leia, and Han) as central protagonistsAfter the amount of damage DIsney has done to those characters, I don't think anyone wants to see them ever again. At least not by their hands.
>>152037332>Use star wars visions to show off potential star wars anime shows>Instead of picking something cool like the lone sith warrior vs other sith one, or the village bride>Pick the one where light sabers work like mood ringsJust kill me now.
>>152044413That's true. I guess casting's the only issue, so they should probably stick with animation if they're gonna use iconic characters.>>152044429>cool like the lone sith warriorYou do NOT want to know what the spinoff novel did to him.
>>152043405>>152043435>"fighting"lmfaoHe was portrayed like a fucking retard and killed off like a retard. Worse than Boba Fett in ROTJ. At least Boba got to fire his gun.Not gonna lie, this has got to be the biggest raping and fuck you in the history of Star Wars. Not even TLJ Luke comes close. At least TLJ Luke was important to the story. This shit was just petty. Although I doubt that was the intention, I doubt the head-writer of The Bad Batch of episodes, Jennifer Corbett, whose previous stellar record includes Star Wars: Resistance, knew or cared about Scorch and Republic Commando. Remember, one week before Scorch got fucking killed like a dog after being completely character assassinated, she said that "Oh yes, it's good you are excited, who knows what the future holds for your fan-favorite Delta Squad!" God, that show fucking sucked.
>>152043405>>152044507And the rest of the republic commandos got raped just as hard. They were portrayed worse than regular stormtroopers. When they were not standing on guard duty doing nothing in their full on commando gear for some reason, they were jobbing like a bunch of clueless retards. People making Bad Batch either had a hate boner for Republic Commando, or they simply didn't know a single thing about them, and in their mind during production, these were just stormtroopers in fancier sci-fi armor. Remember, the show never even acknowledged them as clones. They were never given any character. They were just generic incompetent NPC fodder to shoot.
>>152037906if she regularly enters of state of immodest dress, it will be worth a watch
>>152037332I'm a simple man, I just want a cool new masked Sith. The Acolyte only delivered on that front.
It can't be that bad... R-right?
>>152044630meant for >>152044485
>>152044634The author was a fag, so she said to reflect her faggotry, she made him a fag that sleeps with anyone who approaches him.
I'm watching The Bad Batch now and I cannot believe how mediocre this shit is. Why even bother wasting the time to animate this. The Bad Batch themselves weren't even good characters to begin with they're just character archetypes as clones.
>>152044087Did he even have fanboys? I genuinely don't recall seeing a single one. Just people exasperated that he was somehow every where in all the Star Wars media during that time.
>>152044699He had a fair bit, but man, I really hated how Disney was shoving him down out throats back then.
>>152044714>outFuck, I meant "our".
>>152044677>The Bad BatchIt felt like one of the most unnecessary Star Wars stories at the time. I'm probably one of the only people that doesn't want The Path story people seem to be creaming themselves over.
>>152044677The Bad Batch felt like it was meant to be a bridge to the ST but it suffered obvious executive meddling like forcing Omega and making the show about her. The stories that actually felt like they were meant to be something (mostly the Crosshair eps) were really good, but there was a lot of mediocrity and outright shit throughout.
>>152044645>sleeps with anyone who approaches himLiterally me
>>152044645WELP
>>152044807She even called him a "pansexual disaster" the author's an attention whore who literally made the story about her own faggotry.
>>152044807If it makes you feel better, Disney acknowledged that it's losing young men as an audience and they're moving away from LGBTBBQ stuff, so it gets worse before it gets better, right?
>>152044485>>152044645>fucks anything that moves>this is somehow bad
>>152044807Just read the Marvel comics with the character if you want more they are much more in keeping to the vision's short due to being written and drawn by Takashi Okazaki who did all the character design
>>152044899Can the novel be disregarded and be considered non canon to the short and comics?
>>152044905None of it's canon, anyway.
give her, her own tv show
>>152037332Time to slop the pigs again
At this pace we probably get pic related in the near future.
>>152044954Literally Darth Caldoth.
>>152044929as she deserves itor the inevitable live action, but only if fagloni stays away from the writing and it's a good casting
>>152044905Yeah, since the shorts or the comic one-shots do not reference anything from the book
>>152045042That's good.
>>152045553>what should have happened in the clone wars, but didn't
>>152037775The half-mask really tied her design together. Her ditching it obviously is related to her growth in the episode but she's lacking without it.
>>152044429Ninth Jedi was easily easily easily the best of the first season. Dont play.
I'm becoming impatient
>>152037332No one’s hair would look like that in Star Wars. It’s too basic. There should be braids or gems or a small tail hanging off the side.
I love Ewoks so much bros. Wish it wasn’t a ratings killer.
>>152044507>>152044517They're not unstoppable. Scorch took multiple blaster hits just to stop there. The other commandos are just shown as generic grunts. Also when Tarkin arrives, there's another commando with Scorch's armor. It could very well be the one who died wasn't the real Scorch.
what should have happened in the clone wars series, but didn't
Annie dicking down that Alien hussy
Why are there no good Star Wars smut artists?
>>152046122why? it'll be a pile of shit like the first season
>>152044255Most of which are thirty years old and non-canonised by now. At least re-adapting them can bring them back into canon if nothing else.
>>152047371Because I liked the first season
>>152047438I mean we can all like objectively terrible things I suppose
>>152044011The High Republic is painfully underused considering how rich of a setting it now is. I'd like a series that covers the same overarching galactic events of the multimedia project, but from angles we didn't get to see. You could do three seasons between the hyperspace disaster and the fall of Starlight Beacon alone, viewed from the perspective of a random group of Jedi caught up in the Nihil conflict rather than the major players that the novels focus on
>>152047486I can and I do. There's things much worse than Ahsoka S1 that I enjoy, that's for sure.
>>152047499>You could do three seasons between the hyperspace disaster and the fall of Starlight Beacon alone, viewed from the perspective of a random group of JediI have the perfect Jedi for the job
>>152047512must be a small amount of things to be considered "worse than ahsoka S1"i'd rather watch kenobi or the acolyte
>>152047537Genuinely the worst kids star wars shit weve ever got. Absolute slop.
>>152047555>i'd rather watch kenobiThis is bait>or the acolyteUnintentionally based
>>152047636As someone with a child and has happily watched it all the way through, I think it's probably the best. Even though it's for preschoolers, it somehow manages to capture that soulful star wars energy when it reaches narrative climaxes. Good character dynamics and conflicts, but told through the lens of a four year old much like TCW has those same benefits told through the lens of a 14 year old
>>152047499This, I want to see Yoda in his prime kicking ass, I want to see the Jedi in their heyday not worrying about politics, I want Fallen Jedi to be explored more while any Sith remnants or Dark Side nexuses are contained or destroyed, or alternative Force Sensitive sects being purged. Era needs to be like the Crusades of Star Wars - it's the Golden Age because the Jedi are completely dominating the board and trying to sweep up the rest of the Sith's Chess pieces. Bane or one of the lesser known Rule of Twoers gets murked by the end and everyone thinks the Sith are done.
Mando? 4/10. Book of Boba? 4/10. Obi-Wan? 2/10. Andor? 4/10. Ahsoka? 5/10. Acolyte? 4/10. Skeleton Crew? Forgot it ever came out.

>>152048592That is so obviously AI, you jeets do this shit all the time to make it seem like people are actually interested in your slop.

Happens all the time on this board and on others.
>>152049178Nah, he's a different guy than me. Also I didn't make the slop, I saved it from a thread a few months back where someone was making lots of slop with girls in the slave Leia outfit.

>>152050570No. Not with what Ahsoka and Rebels set up. I don't really care about those characters, but Thrawn is their villain. Even if it would make sense for the OT trio to get involved there just isn't room for them. Stoic and Waifu already supplanted Joruus, too.

>>152052996Even the worst of the sequels looked better than this movie. This is shot as blandly as capeshit.

>>152052996>>152053068I'm very very very worried for this movie>>152053085Good. I'm sick of comic/book shit being adapted over and then having to hear about how "Disney doesn't care about continuity" when something isn't 1:1 exactly the same.
>>152053120>Comic/book shitThey were TCW episodes you sperg.
>>152053145And released as a novel.
>>152053120The sequel trilogy is literally aping the OT & EU stuff set after but worse.
>>152053085>8 episodes long which is perfect for a miniseries>they're pushing ventress as a main character currentlyi'd say they should, but it's not neccessary as the story has already been told (plus it's not the best in general)
>>152053902plus they retconned it slightly (minor stuff) with taleswe also deserve the dress on screen
>>152053085It doesn't matter. They ruined it by somehow resurrecting Ventress anyway. The character is a boring, dead fish now with no point to her existence. There is literally no point in reading/watching Dark Disciple now. It's been entirely undone. Enjoy pointless cameo Slop Batch episode and nothingburger boring Tales babysitting filler slop.
>>152054078Somehow... Ventress has returned.
>>152047499Are the High Republic comics any good?
>>152054857No. And they tie into The Acolyte.
>>152054857They're alright. Somewhat anticlimactic, though. Their biggest problem is feeling so reliant on the novels (that I have not and will never read).
what should happen in the doctor aphra comic series, but won't
>>152054930I fucking wish
>>152054857Novels are much better. Most of the comics are more like the B plot to what's going on in the books, which I do recommend
what should have happened in the new jedi order books, but didn't
what should have happened in the Star Wars Visions episode, i am your mother, but didn't
>>152054621Somehow... Dooku has returned.
I sometimes wonder why the fuck The Clone Wars had Jar Jar episodes.
>>152057450The show is better for it. His vacancy would be felt if there weren't jar jar episodes
We need a new storytelling initiative that takes place way after the sequel trilogy.
>>152057584Maybe if the new anime is canon.
>>152040480A series about Luke's Jedi Order would be cool. Fighting the Imperial remnant, gangs and pirates, Ben slowly falling closer to the Dark Side, Solo family adventures. They could introduce a bunch of cool jedi which the sequel era lacked. A whole lot of possibilities with this time period.
>>152057825I agree, it would be very cool, though as much as I liked the comic, it should retcon The Rise of Kylo Ren to tell a better version of the story.
>>152054621at least they explained it on screen and had the intent to do so all along, unlike palpatineopens up some lore implications however, I believe it's the first true resurrection we've seen
>>152058048If Palpatine gets revived again, he'd basically be the Star Wars equivalent of Castlevania's (game) Dracula.
>>152058048>had the intent to do so all alongDid they? I was under the impression that her death in Dark Disciples was the intended conclusion of her story and the decision to resurrect her was a post-Lucas one.
>>152058272more in the sense that when they brought her back in TBB, they clearly stated in an article....the same day? (same week at least) that how she's alive WILL be explained, which they followed up on with tales a year lateras for dark disciple, her death and burial is written as conclusive, but theres a little bit of "oh, nightsister magic activates, who knows what might happen?" as a sort of foot in the door, which tales used to bring her back
>>152058351Ah, I misread your first post. I remember them saying they'd eventually explain how she came back.
>>152058366yeah, and it at least uses existing ideas to make it happensomething a bit funny to think about is that despite her being a full resurrection, it's actually one of the better way's they've brought a character backit's either making entirely new shit up for the episode (ahsoka with the world between worlds and time travel), poorly explaining it initally and never showing it happen (palpatine and clone bodies), or just never really addressing it at all (darth maul who says he only lived because of hate)the building blocks were there and they planned it out
>>152058397not to say it's perfect of course, just that it's one of the better ones because it was addressed, addressed quickly (were working on it before even releasing the TBB episode), the writers knew it needed to be addressed, it was shown and not told and used existing things from the lore to make it happen
>>152057584There are no Skywalkers left so why even?
>>152058875They can always just asspull a new one into existence by having either Luke or Ben have a bastard child somewhere.
>>152058991Or use cloning, the Vader comics implied that Luke's severed hand somehow ended up on Exegol.
>>152059085That's my headcanon for The Twins from Visions.
>>152058991>Ben have a bastard child somewhere.So this character but New Canon.
>>152058875It doesn't need to revolve around Skywalkers anymore than the original Tales of the Jedi did.
>>152059746Pretty much, yeah.
>a Jedi from a long-lived race joins an expedition that ends up in a different galaxy>starts his own Jedi order>two centuries later the new order is strong enough to try to fix a galaxy that's a balkanized mess with enough militaristic factions to make 40k blush (each has its own exlusive Force User group too)>somehow humans are there tooA man can dream

>>152058875Disney's not gonna care about contradicting TROS of all things, so surely a new Skywalker can be written in.
>>152060606I'd rather they didn't. I don't see the point. I didn't like the Skywalker-wank in the EU either, but at least there it was seamless aside from maybe Legacy.
>>152060606>Disney's not gonna care about contradicting TROS of all things,They would if it had even a small chance of undermining Rey "All the Jedi" Skywalker.
>>152060711Is Rey even gonna be the main character of the NJO movie? I heard that she was gonna play a mentor role to two new protagonists, unless that was changed.

>>152037817Andor didn’t end until last year, so it means they got you by the balls until quite recently. And nobody could have expected that show to end up like it did, meaning it’s fully possible you’ll just crawl back whenever they make something that catches your eye again>nuh that would never happen Look at yourself years ago and tell me if you would genuinely have cared about a prequel to Rouge One before it came out. Don’t lie to yourself.
>>152061000Inquisitor/Dark Jedi Griffith was fun.
>>152057584>>152058875Just make a long timeskip after Rey made a new Jedi order and now she’s an old lady teaching new recruits. Fresh slate to do whatever you want, almost no sequel era characters needed. You can even make it set after Rey died of old age or got killed if you wanted.
>>152061086Probably what Simon Kinberg's trilogy will be about.
I've been seeing less hyperbolic retards over the past few Star Wars threads save for like three schizos. Did something good happen?
>>152061166This board has the best ratio of actual star wars fans to people who just like to shitpost since /co/ posters have to watch the cartoons and read the comics to not be outed as someone who doesn't actually partake in the franchise. It's easy to talk about how bad everything is on the other boards because you aren't surrounded by people able to immediately fact check ridiculous claims I also think it helps that the franchise is on a hiatus so there's not much for shitposters to care about
>>152061222That makes sense. It's been comfy so far, the only other place that's somewhat sane about Star Wars is SWGG on /vm/.
>>152060711You can't see the bottom of the hilt in the film. I thought she'd turned her staff into a lightsaber, and was excited for a polearm. Very disappointed when I later found out it was standard saber-hilt length.
>>152061343If she had a yellow saberstaff and Ben was asspulled back into existence, it's Revan and Bastila all over again.
>>152057825This is why it baffled me that the canon went "oh uh basically the Empire was defeated in like one year and then we got three decades of fucking nothing happening" as a setup to TFA. Massively wasted potential.
what should have happened in the The High Republic Escape from Valo book, but didn't
Was The High Republic just Disney giving their writers a chance to fuck around?
>>152061704Gay fanfiction yes.
>>152061267/tg/ has a good star wars general too but it's pretty hard to navigate since they stay surprisingly on topic and 60 percent of discussion is about ship stats and game rules.
>>152061704Kinda yeah. They had a handful of the current authors design their own era and narrative within the confines of what the Storygroup wanted established. Honestly, if it was up to me, all eras would be designed by committee going forward like this because it produced much better results than giving entire eras to a single movie director like Abrams or to a third party studio like the bioware ToR eras.
>>152061078Yes. I would have liked to have seen more of his and F's story.
>High Republic>Let's set our stories in a time were things were cool and nothing fucking happened.You know it's not surprising that this is the level of character they could come up with.
>>152062037>all eras would be designed by committee going forward like thisThe problem is when they become too committed to their multimedia campaign. The comics were pretty disposable because of it.
>>152062702yeah, spinoffs are all well and good but you need some kind of central story to hang everything off of.
>>152062702I don't think we necessarily need a big crazy multimedia protect like this, but I think if a director comes into Lucasfilm who wants to tell a story in a new era, they can work hand in hand with the storygroup and a new group of current Lucasfilm authors to help decide what that era looks like to fit their film into. Then have it release alongside the normal handful of tie-in novels and comics written by those authors that big releases usually get anyway. That way we have a new era that is able to handle multiple complex stories by design, with multiple lucasfilm creatives already having ideas for where to take it next. Could you imagine if the sequel trilogy was handled like this instead of letting JJ do whatever he wanted and having authors try to make sense of it after the fact?People can say what they want about how woke the High Republic is our whatever, but there is no denying how rich of an era it is compared to the sequel trilogy
>>152062424>Radda radda
>>152062903JJ just set up a bunch of obvious plot hooks with no real thought how to end them. The real problem was Round Head coming in and trying to SUBVERT EXPECTATIONS. > but there is no denying how rich of an era it is compared to the sequel trilogyOnly because it was a vague era of existing Star Wars lore and ideas. Otherwise it's almost completely lateral.
>>152063701Yeah the problem with the era itself is that it wasn't designed to fit within star wars lore, it was designed so JJ can use OT imagery by any means necessary, and then the "real" SW storytellers just had to come in and make sense of it after the fact
>>152059796>It doesn't need to revolve around Skywalkers anymore than the original Tales of the Jedi didYou're overestimating the importance of a comic compared to a film. Star Wars is the movies, and its story is centered on the Skywalkers. Lucas' intention for his 3 trilogy saga to be about>The Father (Anakin)>The Children (Luke and Leia)>The Grandchildren (Kira and Skylar)Everything else is spinoff media. The movies are what matters above all else.>>152060698>I didn't like the Skywalker-wank in the EU eitherYou didn't like the main family getting focused on? Star Wars' about the Skywalkers, my guy.
>>152064479Georges saga was about the skywalkers, that doesn't mean the entire continuity needs to revolve around them at all times
>>152064479>You're overestimating the importance of a comic compared to a filmNo. Importance is irrelevant.>Lucas' intention for his 3 trilogy saga His third trilogy doesn't matter because it doesn't exist. My point is that they don't need to asspull secret offspring to justify more stories. Let a good story justify its existence by being good for a change.>You didn't like the main family getting focused on?I didn't care for how they did it. The post-ROTJ EU was largely garbage.>Star Wars' about the SkywalkersThe issue is that the "Skywalkers" as a grand cosmic royal family is boring. Luke's relationship with Darth Vader worked for reasons specific to the OT. I don't care about the Skywalkers out of genealogical interest.
>>152064649>Importance is irrelevant.Not for a movie-based property like Star Wars. Big diff between the main stuff and licensed material.>The post-ROTJ EU was largely garbage.I'll give you that >The issue is that the "Skywalkers" as a grand cosmic royal family is boringTo you, a dork. And you lot don't know what's cool and boring. 9 times out of 10 you guys want shit to be do lame and boring while shitting on the things that aren't. Just accept you're weird and not normal, not do you understand what normal people want.>>152064568>that doesn't mean the entire continuity needs to revolve around them at all timesSpin off media can focus on whoever the fuck. Doesn't make it true for mainline. That's Skywalker central.
>>152064925I only agree if they were to try making an Episode XIf they want to make a new multi-episode Saga following different characters and different eras, I will not complain
>>152059746Easy story. Rey discovers Ben's bastard daughter and decides to adopt her and train her as a Jedi. Call it The Last Skywalker.
>>152043377I hope they add more to revan's revenge soon, its really fun playing that era but it desperately needs more units and tuning
>>152065044Basically, Ben's kid becomes the super important Jesus character, with Rey existing to train her. A decent way to correct the ST by recontextualizing the whole thing to be about Rey becoming the Jedi Master that Allana would need.
>>152065139And her being a Palpatine but a Jedi now works. Like Vader and Palpatine but light side. Complete with Rey being a mother figure to Allana, contrasting with Palpatine acting as a father figure to Anakin.
>>152064925>To you, a dork.Maybe. People obsess over the Kardashians too. You probably also think the Chosen One prophecy was a stroke of genius and not embarrassing.
For me it would need to be birth through the dyad
We were so fucking robbed.
Fuck it, nuke everything and do dark empire At least that was cool
Is it true Disney got rid of Kennedy or did I get duped?
>>152065199>You probably also think the Chosen One prophecy was a stroke of genius and not embarrassing.How was it embarrassing? Star Wars is Space Fantasy, so Anakin being a Jesus works just fine. It's the story of how Jesus was subverted by the Devil into becoming the Anti-Christ.
>>152065303Take a guess. We've been doing this charade since 2015.
>>152064925Too bad the skywalker line is dead
>>152065321It's conspicuously tacked on which is one thing, but it doesn't enrich the story. The prophecy itself is also doomed to being nonsensical or being trivial, which is something even Lucas's sequel story ideas tacitly admit, to say nothing of the EU.
>>152065391Yeah it's worth reminding that Georges sequels would have revealed that Leia was the chosen one. It's completely inconsequential in the scheme of things. The most interesting thing they can do with the Jedi prophecy at this point is paint it as Jedi hubris that ultimately lead to their own destruction.
>>152065417When you think about it, it's quite absurd to think that the Jedi wrote their own prophecy about how one of their own Jedi would eventually be the chosen one and save the entire galaxy, and then took it seriously for hundreds (thousands?) of years. I don't know what the current popular stance is on the Jedi being humanized/painted in a less than perfect light, but the thought of such overconfidence being what created Darth Vader is narratively interesting. Moreso than any real chosen one would be at this point.
>>152065391>but it doesn't enrich the storyYeah it does. Plus, Lucas had the Chosen One idea in mind with the Son of the Suns thing in the 2nd draft of ANH.>>152065417>Yeah it's worth reminding that Georges sequels would have revealed that Leia was the chosen one. It's completely inconsequential in the scheme of things.Misinfo. He meant she'd be the chosen one of the people as Supreme Chancellor, not of the Force. Not the one who will bring balance to the Force, which Anakin already did. Maul and Talon weren't gonna be Sith, but basically Xizor and Guri from Shadows of the Empire.
>>152065603>Darth Maul and Darth Talon weren't gonna be Sithok
>>152065279They should have tried to be good first then.
>>152065603>He meant she'd be the chosen one of the people as Supreme Chancellor, not of the Force. Not the one who will bring balance to the Force,I've never heard this claim. Source?
>>152055696isnt she a lesbian?those dont tend to have children...
>>152066387They fixed her.
>>152066147Scratch that, I was wrong. Looked it up and Leia was supposed to be THE Chosen One, with Maul and Talon being the last of the Sith she destroys. But she wins through politics like Padme through uniting the New Republic and the Jedi. So RotS but light side wins. Think of Palpatine's scene when he establishes the Empire but it's Leia establishing the New Republic. Lucas did love his parallels.
>>152066506for real? huh.
>>152066632No I'm joking. If only.
>I'll take a girl on a backwater planet who turns out to be Force-sensitive and gets chased by bad guys.
Sometimes I wonder what the Star Wars superfans thought the Clone Wars were before the Prequels
Maul trailer when? I fucking hate Lucasfilm. I don't care about Mandalorian and Grogu, stop shoving that shit down my throat.
>>152067111>Maul trailer when?Probably a couple months.>I don't care about Mandalorian and GroguI do, but they should probably leave them alone for a while after. At least until the big crossover project that they've been working up to since they started The Mandalorian.
>>152037332BasedLightsabers changing color based on their wielder should be canon but it's not because of the implications and dramatic tension
>>152067111That Australian alien senator was cute. Hope she didn't die during the Empire
>>152065215It's pretty hilarious that not only is this pairing inherently an unstable dysfunctional relationship involving dubious consent, it's also incestwhich is probably why chicks love it
>>152067099What was stopping them from editing the EU stuff to be more in line with the prequels and TCW? I've done it before. It's easy.
>>152067408>What was stopping them from editing the EU stuff to be more in line with the prequels and TCW?Ego from the writers or a lack of caring on George's part.
>>152067374De-cuted by Disney. Fate worse than death.
>>152067558Eh. Still would.
>>152067558She ate too much expensive politician food.
>>152067576The actual real Chuchi from Clone Wars is 11/10. Disney bogged Bad Batch Chuchi is like 5/10. It's impressive how they manage to make uglier characters with much superior technology at hand. Goes to show how important art direction actually is. Character design in Bad Batch and Disney Lucasfilm in general is 95% awful, and pre-existing characters often get ruined, like Chuchi or Barriss.
You can tell Disney Lucasfilm is afraid of making hot characters. They make them ugly on purpose. Like this new Twi'lek character, Disney version of Darth Talon I suppose, who is gonna be Maul's apprentice. Completely bland, unattractive face. Wide nose. Thin lips. Of course, she is also gonna be entirely flat with boy body and fully clothed. Completely boring, forgettable character design and bad art direction.
>>152067637>>152067666Really it's their same actress hiring policy at work but in animated form.
>>152064122I think what's saddest about all of this is that it just should be really difficult to make Star Wars this BAD. Oh don't get me wrong, it should also be hard to make GOOD star wars but even if you just go in with the intention of a basic heroes journey formula it would have been at least alright. I just don't see how you can spend THAT much money and then be so sloppy.
>>152067683It's all so tiresome.
Ba wa bookoo ma. Teelee bakka bookuh>Oona boolah, Solo?Jaha boo chalia bubu. Wahahaha
>>152067704JJ Abrams was simply not the guy. He had the basic directorial skills to tell a fine 3 act story, but didn't have the sauce to tap into the magic of the franchise. I actually like the sequels quite a bit and will defend a lot of things about them, but the fact remains that they are completely sterile with a noticeable lack of creative vision, all stemming from Abrams fake-OT infatuation. Episode 7 lead to Johnson attempting to make the setting as interesting as he could, but ultimately even if episode 8 were to be perfect, it was all destined to fall apart in episode 9 when the priority became trying to please as many people as possible. I hope they learned a valuable lesson.
>>152067920No what Johnson did was deliberately go against the logic of storytelling out of spite & pretending he's a genius.
>>152047939and we're all worse off for it
>>152062702>their multimedia campaignHonestly didn't feel very "multi" since it was just comics and some books, and then the one live action show they did was a fucking flop.No High Republic video games or cartoons, like this whole new era would have been perfect for an animated series but they did fuck all.
I'm not a Ventressfag, but after seeing her contend with some of the best duelists in the galaxy during the war, I'm really pissed that she almost got killed by a fodder inquisitor.
What would you guys want the next animated Star Wars show to be about?
>>152068426They gotta have one feat at least considering they're jobbers everywhere else.
>>152068864Post-TROS.
>>152068864Anything not after TFA
