Pretty fun! The players infiltrated an Imperial Supply Hub on Coruscant in order to find routes of a big convoy the rebels want to raid. But while infiltrating they discovered that the Empire has found the local rebel cell's base and is planning a massive, planet spanning attack on known rebel elements. Not only that, but the Empire has finally noted the party as an important group, right as the party is hidden and disguised in their midst!

Had a funny moment where the party face pretended to be a random imperial officer. He rolled a few triumphs so we agreed that the random name he chose was the actual name of an Imperial war hero who he beared a passing resemblance to. At the end of the session we agreed to add a 1 magnitude obligation for when they eventually run into the actual imperial officer.

I really wish we would get some Clone Wars Era political thrillers with Palpatine's plots and what not, setting people against each other in ways that only benefit the Sith, making everyone run around like headless chickens

Clones were so cool as Mandalorian larpers who the Mandalorians hated. It was a cool dynamic between the army of clean and sleek super soldiers vs the barbarian warrior culture they were literally spawned from. It had a real Varangian guard feel to them, so intensely loyal to their new owners that they would gun down the jedi in the name of the republic. It was some hardcore shit, but of course children's tv writers can't handle that level of nuance and made them standard american GIs that were simply misunderstood and mind controlled.

>>93237043
That chip retcon was so dumb. Fuck, Stover's RotS novelization makes it clear the clones turned on the Jedi on their own violition. Cody might like Obi-Wan, but orders are orders.
Also, didn't Disney also retcon Jango Fett as just another larper and not a "trv" Mandalorian?

George has enough experience with merch to know that the toy executives are retarded, if you make cool things than they'll have plenty of toys to make after. You can see it with Hasbro right now, when they had access to Power Rangers all they did was just rehash nostalgia toys instead of focusing on the stuff that was new and Power Rangers is now dead, something that even Disney didn't do.

>>93237444
Empire have always been a dominant and low skill floor faction. Republic is a little harder but also an elite, forgiving faction to play. Rebels and Separatists are tougher to play because they rely on tricks and mobility for the rebels, and overwhelming numbers for the separatists.

Currently workshopping and idea for a more simulationist wargame centered on the clone wars and I wanted to give a meaningful distinction between phase 1 and phase 2 clones. My idea is that phase 1 clones are always easily controlled but may struggle when not given the proper command structure. But phase 2 can operate more independently but are harder to wrangle.

>>93237598

George was burnt out after the first two and was going through a divorce during the making of Return of the Jedi. So yeah, he rushed to wrap up the story and not make any more sequels so he could take a break from filmmaking and focus on his family. He was definitely reinvigorated and more passionate about Phantom Menace but then the critical reception likely dented that. But I do think his heart was in the prequels more because he was able to do things he wasn't able to on the first few films. As he said the technology had caught up to his imagination. Plus he'd created that backstory for the original 1977 film, which began in the middle of the saga. He talked about beginning in the middle of the story because that's more interesting. Phantom Menace also takes a lot of elements from earlier drafts of A New Hope as well, on a technical level at least it feels like his original vision for Star Wars that he couldn't pull off in the 70s.

Now the sequels on the other hand were always something that existed in limbo even in the 80s. And then he decided like I said before to just compress everything into the original trilogy. So that is the end of the saga. Trying to drag it out to nine films doesn't really work after that. And yeah I don't think George's heart was ever in that and it was just for financial reasons with Disney. He wasn't even going to direct them. He'd told the middle, end and then beginning of his saga already. It would've felt like a glorified epilogue. And the only way Disney was able to really justify it in the end was by bringing back Palpatine.

>>93237643
No, the best way to get into the game is to split a starter box with a friend. Or else you will need to buy the movement/range tools, dice, and generic cards and tokens separately.

George created interesting Mandalorians, ones equivalent to the Weimar Republic struggling with their militaristic past while trying and failing to avoid falling back into the same destructive pattern.

Yes, but not because of her as a character but because she changed his vision for Luke's future.

>>93238198
I've only heard about it but they're pretty good, biggest unit in the game. Last I checked the meta has moved to heavily armored infantry, but tanks still have their purpose. You can even play a variant list which allows you 3 AT-STs in a single list, bit of a meme but sees tournament play

>>93238226
That sounds goofy as fuck but i'll refrain for now. Probably gonna see if the core box goes on a good sale for Prime Day since my LGS doesn't have any sets in right now besides the Separatist Invasion Force, which I considered but I heard the CIS is kind of complicated.

>>93238145
HIs PT scripts are from the late 80s to early/mid 90s, so they actually are from the same time period when Mara Jade was created.
GL also regularly said he did not pay much or even any attention to what the EU writers were doing
So it is quite likely that he learned about Mara Jada around the time he was finalizing his concepts for TPM.and drawing the outlines for AotC.

Also, he married a black woman, obviously he would hate all gingers as living proof of his poor taste and choices.

>>93238295
CIS looks neat and I have a fondness for the Clone Wars despite sand, however I think that might be better for a second army once I actually grasp the game.

GL also pretends that he didn't steal tons of shit from Dune and french comic book artists. It's all part of his George Lucas Vision (TM) bullshit, while from ESB to Andor the best SW has been made by other people.

In the late 80s to early/mid 90s Star Wars was kept alive by videogames, the WEG TTRPG, Dark Horse comics and books.

Maul was exactly what he wanted because he was raised to be exactly what he wanted. He put a ton of time and effort into creating Maul and it all worked out pretty well considering how long Maul survived in the end. Dooku was always just a stopgap, and Vader was just as unbalanced as a sith as he was as a jedi and spent too much time dwelling on shit from years ago instead of focusing his hatred on anything constructive.

There is no shame in it. Obi learned how to live forever in just 20 years, and none of the Sith did in thousands of years. Obi is one of the greatest Jedi Masters in history. He studied Maul in his head, and he replayed that duel with Qui-Gon in his head for decades. Of course he was cooked.

And Vader could not beat Obi in ANH. He did not particularly outskill him in the duel, and Obi held his own really well, and could fight as long as needed. Obi chose to sacrifice himself with a smile on his face to help Luke escape. Absolute giga chad.

Yeah, but he did it not for Sith reasons. He did it because he is a pathetic little bitch, and because he was destined to do it. One could argue it was not even his agency. It was the W(h)ill of the Force. Vader is a pathetic retard.

Both old EU and new canon consistently portray Vader as personally killing numerous knights and masters in the Temple and subsequently when hunting down survivors.

He didn't. Kenobi literally stopped fighting and raised his lightsaber to become a force ghost at will. His body fucking disappeared even. He didn't kill shit.

The Battle of Sullust is proceeding apace. We have taken the first of many cities on our road to the capitol, and the fleet has arrived, making slow but solid progress against the pro-Imperial Home Guard fleet. We were preparing a strike against the pro-imperial forces communication array and ground defense turbolasers when we ran into an A6 Juggernaut in the tunnels. That's where we left off, probably going to have to board and dungeon crawl it if we don't want the offensive to stall.

Unfortunately it's looking like our hiatus is going to be at least two weeks so I'm twiddling my thumbs.

My idea’s for the squad would be a Nimbus Commando leader, a Gossam Commando sniper, a BX-Commando Droid assassin and a Skakoan Legal Deputy demolitions expert doing morally questionable missions for the Confederacy. And I think it would be cool to have it do cross play matches with Republic Commando we’re you and your mates fight against Clone Commandos and vice versa.

You're certainly right, I just wanted to point out that Mara Jade appeared in teh EU around the same time that GL was working on the script for TPM.

>>93238705
They did change a number of things, and the script for AotC was finalized three months or so after TPM released.
The PT certainly suffered from nobody telling Lucas 'this is a bad idea', and by 'this' I mostly mean the age of Anakin,j Jar Jar being in the movie for more than three minutes, AotC attempting to fit two movies worth of story into one movie and failing, and RotS requiring years of TCW to explain what the FUCK was going on (i.e., also trying to fit too much strory into too little time)
Don't get m wrong, the movies do get their story across, but they tend to feel rusehd and especially AotC could have done with a little less time spent on chase scenes and set-piece battles.
Also, dialogue writing was awful, and they totally overdid the CGI. The latter is understandable, it was new at teh time, and ILM wanted to show off.

TPM realy is the odd one out, and it struck most people who had loved SW in the 80s and 90ßs as just not feeling like SW.

>How'd your last Star Wars game go?
Had two different ones this weekend, but each were pretty good for different reasons and had fun in both.

The first RPG session was more combat focused, taking place during the Battle of Kamino. We had a Chiss Jedi Master, Human Jedi Padawan, an ARC Trooper Commander (my character), and his squad. We defended Kamino both from space and on the ground, and got to fight General Grievous at his forward operation base. We deviated from canon as this battle ended in Grievous’ demise. Now for the upcoming session, we are training to assassinate Chancellor Palpatine, as we know his plans. I wonder if the GM would feel more at place playing a game like Legion, but it was enjoyable.

The other RPG campaign was much more role-play focused with not a whole lot of combat, also taking place much more closer to canon so far. Its been over two years since the end of the Clone Wars, our party consists of a Nagai pirate, a Geonosian terrorist, a Clone Trooper (my character, also one of my ARC Commander’s former squadmates from the other campaign), a human medic, a Trandoshan mercenary, and a Togruta dark-side practitioner. Currently we’re at the Fondor shipyards setting the foundations of our own independent faction. The Geonosian made clever business deals to get droid manufacturing parts, the medic and the pirate made some purchases so now we have two Scyk interceptors in addition to our Gozanti frigate, the Trandoshan having the worst luck completing a bounty on a runaway teen, while the clone and the Togruta adopted a force-sensitive Shistavanen kid but secretly need to eventually give him away to an Inquisitor so we can secure his insider help. The session ended on a cliffhanger, a recently acquired ancient protocol droid snuck into the Togruta’s room to steal her datapad for currently unknown reasons. Also, I believe romance between the clone and the Togruta are developing, which leaves me with conflicting feelings.

Do Hutts do anything other than run criminal organizations? Do Twi'leks do anything other than dance and sell ass? Do Klatoonians or Nikto do anything other than work as mercenaries? Do Kaminoans do anything other than grow clones?

>>93242728
>Where the fuck do I even start with
Pick up the faction respective battleforce and an essentials kit.
Blizzard force for the empire, Echo base defenders for rebels, 501st Legion for Republic, Separatist invasion for CIS, or 2x Shadow collective starter
>Why is everything so fucking expensive
Legion is a much smaller scale game than something like 40k, and is comparatively pretty cheap.
Skirmish games run like 5 or 6 units, while full scale games around 7-10 units.

That is part of it. Both Obi-Wan ad Cal exemplify the honourable, virtuous knight, duty-bound samurai, who stick to their code long after their order fell and their liege has been murdered. Both land on an ultimately self-destructive path of isloation or vengeance.
Both of them require a pragmatic Nightsister in their life who tells them to stop moping and start fighting the good fight again. Well, and to repopulate Dathomir, and the galaxy in general,. with force sensitive children.
Yin and Yang. Balance.

But since we have current year Disney doing this, they'll just ride their shitty ideas down in flames and cry that old, evil fans simply don't understand the brilliance of their checkbox-ticking, utterly immersion breaking racist crap.

>>93243844
Did they really set up a shill network for a shirtless dude on twatterX?
Also, didn't all teh women in the show loudly state they were lesbian? Why do tehy suddenly care about a guy?
If they'd used that money to hire a more talented writer (i.e. some random author from fanfiction.net), they might have made it iinto the 20-something audience score.

>>93243999
Headland literally IS the author from fanfiction.net.

>>93243999
the audience score isnt because of the actual writing quality, its because headland is a lesbian and the main actress is black+lgbt

people are giving episodes low scores before the episodes even come out
yet of course said people get pissy when someone calls out review bombing

>>93244027
Or maybe people give teh episodes shit ratings becasue the story is convoluted nonsense, the action is lame (with like one and a half exceptions), the camera and scene setting is like a bad memoory of cardboard backgrounds and pacific northwest woodland from the 1990s, and roughly half the actresses and actors deliver a wooden, unemotional performance at best?
Bonus points for lead actress and diirector insulting the audience for daring to voice theiir feelings for the show, I'm sure that never backfired before when it comes to audience scores. Double bonus points for literally telling the world in an interview before teh shoow even went llive that they didn't give a fuck about teh audience that would probably watch their show.

And all this on top of the fact that it is set in an era of SW that had zero meaning, but they still managed to break decades-old movie canon. This was either a deliberate 'fuck you' to the moovies, or incompetence on a level that is astronomical.

>>93244132
>This was either a deliberate 'fuck you' to the moovies, or incompetence on a level that is astronomical.
It's incompetence, because the "fuck you" approach would require some talent.
And this is the show that keeps changing the motivations and personalities of the protagonists on a dime, because the scene X needs to happen.

>>93244027
>>93244132
The review bombing for politics happens, it's true, and so far the 'canon breaking' is nonsense as it's so far removed from everything and without a conclusion that is unfair to say so. Kenobi had more canon breaking every episode. The biggest change Acolyte done so far was change Ki Adi Mundi birthdate.
But the lower reviews make sense because the series overall quality is very bad indeed.

Nobody is watching Acolyte who didn't sit through Kenobi and Book, at this point D+ has a captive audience that's apparently large enough to hit revenue targets. Why would they risk trying to improve?

>>93244235
To be frank, I don't really give a fuck about how little a change to establisehd canon is,. at this point it's just 'one more thing' that tels us the showrunners absolutely do noto give a fuck aboout the IP, and they just end up looking like angry chjildren smashing something they cannot comprehend. It's unintentionally funny, and sad at the same time.

Their stupid 'let's only hire gay/bisexual and black/asian/mexican actors/writers/directors' is obnoxious and fucking stupid becasue they obviously hire people that lack understanding of the source material, and quite honestly the writing skill to actually make a goood season arc story.
Plus it's probably illegal because discriminating by race, sexual orientation or religion is illegal, but maybe that doesn't count in Hollywood.

I mean, most people here have probably DMed, or played in, RPG campaigns that had better stories that this utter shitshow, even if it's for teh simple reason that an RPG campaign requires even NPCs to have understandable and sensical motivations that do not randoomly change scene-by-scene.
In this show, some things that get mentioned in one scene are completely forgotten, or even reversed seconds later, probably because of re-shoots or maybe because they were making some rapid cahnges in the cutting provess to avoid re-shoots.
Which just makes the overall pricetag of teh show even more baffling.

So since they’re not doing a Mando season 4 and are making a movie, what do you expect the plot to be and how will it all end for both characters? Will Disney continue to use them in shows and movies or is this finally it for them?

>>93244427
>somehow moff gideon has returned

mandos house has to get blown up by an AT-AT or something to motivate him because that season 3 ending cant work with a movie

>>93244235
>The review bombing for politics happens, it's true,
IN a show that had prerelease interviews telling everyone that this was a political statement more than a show, and that everyone involved in making it was an activist, what did tehy expect?
By their own definition, any and all review of a political statement is a political stement in return. It'S like the whole setup is one gigantic strawmam construct to guilt-trip the audience into noot saying something bad in order to avoid being called racist/bigot/fascist/misogynist/nazi/etc.
But that is not how it works, when the 'entertainment' you produce is not actually entertaining, you can't go and tell the people that you, in fact, failed to entertain 'nuh-uh, you're wrong and you're racist, you must be entertained because I say so'
You can try that once, and stir up some (negative) media circus, and they did that with Kenobi.
It backfired badly, and cost them thousands of fans. Ironically, it cost them more female fans, too. And that show died in the scriptwriting and directing phase, too.

>and so far the 'canon breaking' is nonsense as it's so far removed from everything and without a conclusion that is unfair to say so
They literally and diirectly have Ki-Adi Mundi there, who diirectly states in teh PT that the Sith have not been around for a millenium. This show happens a hundred years or so before TPM. Yeah, maybe tehy have a le subverted expectation moment in teh last episode where it alll gets sealed in teh secret archive or something.
This also contradicts Ki-Adi Mundi's age, which was stated in a secondary source, but who cares at this point.
>Kenobi had more canon breaking every episode.
Pointing out that this shitheap of a nonsensical sequence of somewhat SW looking scenes is less shit than the utter storywriting apocalypse that was Kenobi is not really helping

His and Grogu's story was wrapped up pretty neatly at the end of season 3, so it'd have to be completely new for both, being that their movie is apparently separate from the Heir to the Empire movie. Also Carl Weathers died so he won't show up in an even fancier outfit. At a guess, with the cultists, mercs, and hobos all gathered together on Mandalore to restore their society, other Mandos could appear - neo-neo-crusaders. With Mandalore finally back in the hands of Mandalorians, someone could try to galvanize them to conquer the weak and ineffectual New Republic and regain glory days that none of them know through anything but ancient history, leading to a civil war ripping apart a group that just reunited.

Apart from that, more cameos and guest appearances, not only from established Star Wars people to steal screen time but return appearances from previous seasons. Could have some of his criminal buddies from season 1 return for revenge, maybe he hunts a bounty that happens to work for Boba Fett.

>>93244606
So Grogu is a clone of Yaddle right? That’s what they’re establishing with Dooku and Palp killing Yaddle? They had her body to do experiments on since there was no way they got Yoda’s dna.

People freaking out over this has to be the funniest thing, and I think is indicative of why no one takes criticism of the show seriously.

But its a bit of an interesting microcosm to me of why any discussion around Star Wars is so fucked. It is both a major tentpole franchise meant to appeal globally BUT also has an autistic fanbase attached as well. Normally franchises are one or the other. i.e. Marvel is geared towards people who watch movies, and 40k is geared towards autists.

So to someone who just watches movies and maybe TV, basically all Star Wars from prequels onwards seems like ass because its terrible at giving context. And then for the autists into everything else, the movies and TV can't help but enrage them by invariably stepping on their pointless minutiae.

>>93245131
Nobody minds if *you*, an unthinking corpodrone consuming your daily hour of slop to distract you from your miserable existence, considers the established facts of the IP to be "pointless minutiae", the problem is that the people *making stories in that IP* think that way, because it's indicative of their broader lack of care - when you work in an established IP you are a *curator* more than an artist, but these fucks can't let go of their own egos for long enough to comprehend that.

It's not that "autists" care *that much* about Conehead's birthday, it's that people who aren't just mindless consoomers look at the situation and see it as proof of the wider issue; nothing about the scene required or was enhanced by using Mundi, there's no argument that it *needed* to be him, or that he made it better. They used him exclusively because maybe one or two mental deficients would point at the screen while bouncing up and down exclaiming "MUH DROID ATTACK ON DUH WOOKEES HURR HURR". It's one more in a long line of instances of them either not caring to know/find out if what they're doing goes against previously established fiction, or knowing it does and believing their whims matter more, and it's that *attitude* that people are reacting negatively to.

Which you obviously know, but I guess it's more important to feel like a smug twat because *you* don't really care about all this silly stuff right, you just discuss it on an obscure mongolian basket weaving forum to laugh at the animals and then you go home to your 9.5/10 harem and Chad lifestyle right...kek, everyone sees right through you man, even the normies you keep up this indifferent facade for.

ACKtually, it tells us a lot about how Disneywars works: like a child making messes in his father's workshop.
Ki-adi appears in Accolyte because he is one of the few masters from Episode 1 who speaks and is easily recognizable. That's all. A cameo.
To make it work you need to extend his lifespan. But extending his age completely destroys what was the core of his character, that is, the biological need to have multiple wives (and how it affects his being a Jedi and his loyalty to the order). Now, you may think "that" Core was trash and had little to do with Lucas' Jedi. Fine. But the point remains. And that is a character was destroyed to appear briefly in a very poorly written B-series show. And it's the same kind of problem that generated controversy over the Force birth of the twins or Cortosis. It's bad writing. Things thrown randomly into a cauldron without any structural thought behind them.

Leia looks good, very mobile with all these dashes and the 2 shoves on the Covert Rebel will be pretty useful.
Luke looks pretty nice, especially for a 3SP Secondary. Giving 2 rerolls to Rebel/Spy allies at range 3 is pretty bonkers.
Compared to other 3SP shitters like Greef or Ponds he is kind of amazing.
Han/Chewie are great with good HP, great offense and an easy way to put tokens on their foes but their 5SP cost is kinda prohibitive, though they can probably be used well with Mando and Greef to replace IG-11.
Amusingly enough since Thrawn's ISB glowies will probably have the Spy tag, this squad might have its best synergy with Kallus and the 2 ISB spooks.
Right now this box's main issue is how much character overlap it has with the other Rebel Boxes.

Thhis is why we'Re seeing Season 2 soon, right? I mean, why would a company that wants to make money by selling views of their show care about the actuall viewer count tanking, or said viewers cancelling subscriptions?

Maybe, just maybe, look into not making identity politics the first and only topic. Maybe look into making a good and entertaining show. Maybe listen to what the audience you're trying to sell the entertainment to actually wants.
Or go on shouting I CAN'T HEAR YOU, YOU'RE ALL RACIST AND BIGOTS at any and all criticism levelled at the televised diarrhea you insist on pumping out.
We are at three streaming shows bombing in a row for SW. The rest of Disney is performing at about the same level.
But what do I know, I'm sure the modern audience that is surely around somewhere to consuem all this modern content will turn up any day and make all these old boomers, gen Xers and millennails who used to love Star Wars (and Disney, and Marvel) obsolete. Just call them alll racist one more time, maybe it'll lwork this time.

Thhe real proobllem is that they put their LGBTQIAwhatever agenda over making an actual show that is enjoyable to watch, and then cry 'dats wacist' when people lsay that the show sucks.
Nobody cares if there is a Danish-American female lead who identifies as black and likes to slleep with girls, if the story is good this is just not very important in SW.
This is of acttuallly zero importance to telling a good story, one that is enjoyable to watch. But they make this the central point. They even hire writers and directors according to how high their diversity score is, instead of attempting to get the best people for the job, which should be no problem at all with a close to $200 million budget.
We are at a point where youtubers who give zero fucks about Star Wars disect these shows scene by scene just to point out how awful and illlogical lteh story is, how bad the scenes are set, how lackluster the direction must be, or how they try to cover up lame fights with CGI.
And this is not some 90s afternoon TV SciFishow filmed in spraypainted set and the hills behind teh studio.

I could go on about this, but why bother. Disney will ride this down in flames, will keep blaming the audience for not liking their shit, and said audeince will just stop turning up. They have one or two attempts left, but after that it will be a death spiral. Just look at Marvell or DC.

So glad that Snoke wasn’t Darth Plagueis. As much as I love Darth Plagueis, it’s better if he stays dead. Making his death indeed tragic and ironic.

The only characters who died but came back to life later are:

Boba Fett, Darth Maul & Echo. Although with Maul and Echo it’s a bit mixed.

R2-D2 being a companion and droid friend to both Skywalkers is something I love. C-3PO being from Tatooine and being build/repaired by Anakin not so much.

There literallly is.
The last few years at Disney/Marvell/Lucasfilm have been notthting but diverstiy and gennderswapping as a remake. Every male chharaceter, especially former main characters, get belittled, laughed at and thrown out of their own movie or show. And like cloockwerk, every single one of these made-by-activists movies and shows bombed. Because they put their activist agendafirst, and do not tell a good story.
I really do not wish to hate on the actors caught up in this, unless they join in on the shrieking, and the main blame is to be laid on the writers, directors and company suits who greenlight this shit.
If it is incompetence, it has cost Disney several billion dollaridoos at this point.

Do not go and make that movie in the escapist space fantasy universe of Star Wars, because it doesn't belong there. Do not act surprised when people look at you trying this and posting online about how it feels forced, and most importantly how tthe show is lacking in story, characters, and hahs a conbooluted and forced plot tthat feels jumbled and nonsensical.
Most importantlyl, do not call these critical voices bigotted racist nerds, unless tehy actuallly are.
If somebody says the show is stupid, the story lacks common sense and the characters feel ltwo-dimnesonal and often apparently just act in a way that teh current scene requires them to act in, that is not racist or bigotted.

If they call you an incomppetent hack who apparently doesn't know how to direct anything more than a bubblegum ad, that is not racist or bigotted.
If tehy cal you a lesbian incompetent, and your millionaire-at-25 lead actress a spoiled racist bitch for making a music viideo that literally insults all white people, that iis not racist or bigotted.
All these things are mere observations based on things that were said by you,posted by you, or or your lead actress.

I have a method to revive star wars. It's just three very simple rules.
>There shall never be a female main character. All female characters are limited to supporting roles.
>There shall never be more than 2 female supporting characters in a SW series/game/book/etc.
>There shall be no the gay in any capacity in any released media.

>>93246907
Nothing.
We don't think about the Republic Defense Coalition.

>>93248143
>if we remove SJWs, star wars will be better again!
>Ignore the prequels

So what threat will there be in the new sequel movies of the sequels? Since it’s 15 years after Rise who’d even be a threat? Why does it take 15 years to even think of restarting the Jedi?

There's nothing wrong with the concept of female characters, as long as they're based.

>>93247411
>The only characters who died but came back to life later are:
are we counting confirmed death though?
maul, boba fett and echo are "survived injuries"
palpatine's body died but his spirit did not as he posessed a new body (so technically counts? as he didnt "survive his injuries")

as for confirmed dead and was later brought back to life, i think there is only ventress

>>93248243
oh and ahsoka in the mortis arc if that counts, not sure if it was a vision or not

>So what threat will there be in the new sequel movies of the sequels? Since it’s 15 years after Rise who’d even be a threat?
Space pirates or warriors, Neo-Final Order extremists, and generally trying to restore the Galactic Republic in some shape or form.
>Why does it take 15 years to even think of restarting the Jedi?
Given the state of the galaxy now, there is probably bound to be more chaos than at anytime since before the Old Republic. That probably means less resources to find force sensitive individuals, since we’re starting the Jedi Order from the ground up again like Luke did.

>>93246907
The idea of Jedi, a few core Republic peacekeepers and a variety of local forces directly fighting the Hutts, Nihl and opportunistic states in direct conflict across a swath of the Outer Rim is a great idea and it’s a shame the comics are not focusing on it. It’s the War part of Star Wars and if done right could power more toy sales to keep the franchise going.

Everybody knows the 212th and the 501st, go out on a limb and do a lesser-known Clone unit, like Gree's 41st Elite Squadron.

>>93248795
Sounds based, I do wish we'd see more of it. High Republic seems like it has potential, it's a shame they keep squandering it with horrible management.

Story of the vast majority of the Disney era. I still have no idea how they pulled Rogue One/Andor and early Mando out of their ass while producing...everything else.

I'd prefer them to be a fairly rag-tag afterthought, mostly used for search and rescue and asserting nominal sovereignty in the godforsaken backwaters, than having really fancy ships and being a proper military. Think pic related.

Then shit starts going down and a jedi has to figure out how to work with them to stop an actual threat, or at least delay it long enough for the cavalry to arrive.

You don't get it. Evil must be sexy.
Came across these two articles in a row earlier.
Tikthots were getting all hot and wet over some guy who just got convicted of strangling two of his girlfriends to death.
And they're the ones who were going on about preferring that fucking bear less than a month ago.

>>93249457
Like we're not sitting around simping for drow women to enslave us... what, just me?
The only thing that aggravates me is the blatant pandering to thirsty women when anything that men find attractive gets a blanket condemnation. Nothing new though.

They look, and have a far cooler name than Brotherhood of the First, Second and Third Sith Orders of the Grand Bane, or whatever the fuck.

I just know that if they put ventress in ahsoka season 2 or the movie, they're going to fuck up the casting like they did with ahsoka

Tell me about the Shien stance, why is it the greatest stance everyone should be using?

Rosario Dawson was, in theory, perfect casting for Ahsoka. She's roughly the right age, she's got that ambiguously brown thing going and she's got the lips. Which makes her performance all the more disappointing.
But I'd blame terrible scriptwriting and even worse directing just as much or more than I'd blame her for that.

>>93253828
>But I'd blame terrible scriptwriting and even worse directing just as much or more than I'd blame her for that.

And it's hardly the first time that's happened to an actor in a Star Wars film.

>>93254234
Oh yeah, we don't need to go over (again!) how awful the Prequels were despite many a great actor in them.

>>93254312
Reveng of the Sith was good, bro!

>>93254585
It was definitely the best of the three and the best non-OT movie, but that's not a very high bar, sadly.

>but that's not a very high bar, sadly.

I'm not ignoring the prequels. I'm watching them and enjoying them, and there's nothing you can do about it. Go back to playing Wheel of the Worst, fatass.

>>93248802
LOL, I was a clone autist as a kid so I thought, "what, those are obscure?"

>>93254746
Because the first two prequels blew? There's like, five scenes between them that are actually fun to watch. Which is better than the sequels and their zero good scenes, but again: low bar.

>>93254845
>I'm watching them and enjoying them
It's OK to have shit taste, but I wouldn't broadcast it so loudly.

This is my only issue as well: I *despise* hypocrisy. I'd be perfectly happy for sexless catladies and wineaunts to get their topless shots and prosthetic dicks flopping around if it wasn't for the fact that even a hint of a suggestion of a smidgeon of attractive female sexuality - not even nudity, just a hot woman who's not dressed in a fucking burka - drives them into a frothing rage denouncing the show as "cisheteropatreonormative violence", any man who says they liked it as basically-a-rapist(honestly one day a lot of guys are just going to say "fuck it, we're doing the time anyway, might as well do the crime" and then I'm gonna fucking laugh), and any women who liked it - if they acknowledge they exist at all - as useful idiots.

>>93254903
Fuck the low bar my man! Me and my gf Maggie love Revenge of the Sith and wish it was filmed in 70mm!
