>>750208349>>Disney era is the golden age of Star Warswho said that?
>>750208349>Disney era is the golden age of Star warsDid the crack you smoke tell you that?
>>750208349>>Disney era is the golden age of Star WarsGolden era of Star Wars haters maybe
>>750208349Incomprehensible post
>>750208349obvious bait aside game development was way faster in the PS2 era
>>750208349what's interesting is that no a single game set in the sequels was made
>>750208406>>750208439>>750208494>>750208560>>750208567Watch the RLM reviews, they pretty much sum it up>The Force Awakens was a masterpiece that played it safe and brought the fans back after the disasters that were the prequels>Daisy Ridley was charismatic as hell and Rey is the best Star Wars protagonist we've ever had>The Last Jedi was a masterpiece that was hated because it dared take risks.>Only reason Daisy Ridley's acting is bad is because she realized she's too good for this franchise so she stopped caring.
>>750208567LucasArts was still a thing too right? Or is there a skinwalker brand running around still?
>>750208349Real fans know the prequels were the true golden age.
>>750208763LucasArts was renamed back to LucasFilm Games
>>750208714>The Force Awakens was a masterpiece that played it safe and brought the fans back after the disasters that were the prequels>Daisy Ridley was charismatic as hell and Rey is the best Star Wars protagonist we've ever had>The Last Jedi was a masterpiece that was hated because it dared take risks.
they never made a game about yuzuan vongs wars
>>750208714Their simping for the sequels and for the MCU made me hate them so much.
>>750208349You're talking about media for children. You really really need to grow up and move on. This shit is half a century old and it's never been good, not in one incarnation anywhere.>b-but the lego-Nope.>b-but og battlefront 2-Nope. It's never been good. You were a kid and you enjoyed media made for a kid. There was a time and a place for it, but now you need to move on. I'm deadly serious. You really need to grow up. If you don't grow up, something very very bad will happen.
>>750208349Bait used to be believable
>>750208714I dont care what rlm thinks most of the time theyre fucking wrong about things. The prequels and sequels especially.The Force Awakens for example was trite unoriginal dogshit, backtracked on the shit that happened in the trilogy and just repeated ANH beat for beat, but instead of a death star that took literally everything the empire had to make and could only blowed up one whole planet the remnants of the empire (somehow as strong as ever???) build a biggerer and badderer weapon of mass destruction that can not only blewed up planets but it blewed up the solar system the new republic operated out of in one instant. Wowie so very epic and cool. Who's Snoke? JJ Abrams has no idea he just throws shit out there so other people write for him. Total hack.
>>750208714>shills Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, Kenobi, and The Acolyte>shits on Rogue One (the best Disney Wars movie) because…it has things they recognize from that eraI’m glad these hacks got exposed for their shit taste and everyone loves the prequels now.
>>750208949The Vong are too kino.

>>750208949>a single game based on a 19 book seriesThis is why the New Jedi Order series can't be adapted, it's just way too long.
>>750210759A fair bit of it could probably be trimmed or skipped over.
>>750210710Yes, I will forever defend The Last Jedi until my dying breath.
>>750210759you dont have to adapt the whole thingjust make some battlefront/repcom campaign about some random troopers dealing with the shit
>>750208714Why did a bunch of Star Trek fans who don’t even like Star Wars that much get treated as this infallible authority on Star Wars for so many years?
>>750210606>that one fan-edit that turns the Obi-Wan Kenobi show into a movieDoes it get rid of the cringe stuff with little Leia?
>>750210606Andor is shit.>>750210884Gen X is retarded.
>>750210759Thrawn trilogy should be a show combined along with the X-Wing series novels up until the liberation of Coruscant. New Jedi Order should be a bunch of long ass videogames. Then Fate of the Jedi should be a trilogy.And fuck Legacy of the Force because it's the The Last Jedi of the EU.
>>750210839For me it was the scene where Rose rams her ship into Finn to stop him from making a heroic sacrifice, dooming the rebels and nearly killing both of them. All for a kiss.
My hot take is that TFA is worse than TLJ because it’s a textbook example of corporate dogshit soft-reboots that rely on nostalgia to sell.
There was nothing more sad in the prequel era than seeing Anakin and Obi-Wan's relationship get destroyed
>>750208714>Watch someone else and mimic their opinions No, go fuck yourself
>>750208714You're mentally stuck in 2016Mike even apologized to the prequels recently

>>750208349>>Disney era is the golden age of Star WarsI hope you get stomped in the dick OP.
>>750211006Same, TLJ for me was just pissing on an ocean of shit, TFA had already done all the damage by invalidating the OT.I can think of a few interesting ideas for a sequel trilogy, but I can't imagine any interesting way to follow up TFA's creatively bankrupt premise.
>>750208714>anon just starts spouting random liesyou realize that regardless of how many times you do this, people won't suddenly start like the prequels, right?
>>750210606>That should be all of the good Mickey Wars shit>TFA >The Last Jedi>Rogue One>GOOD
SAY IT!
>>750211268None of those is a lie, they say all of that in their reviews
The sequel trilogy should have had LOTR as it's main inspiration.
>>750210884Because they are the biggest and most influential film critics of all time and Mike is considered to be the "father of filmmaking" for inventing the concept of filmmaking
>Disney era is the golden age of Star Wars
>>750211267Random anons on /v/ getting together could produce at least 5 full storyline treatments for a sequel trilogy that are all better than Disney's version.
>>750211006I agree. TFA is the movie that made the original trilogy pointless by doing Rebels vs Empire again. And it’s the one that made Luke a failure and destroyed his new Jedi Order.
>>750211085>too retarded to even properly replykek
>Disney era is the golden age of Star Wars>gets very few gamesYou are retarded
>>750211353They never called it a masterpieceThey shat on TLJ, to this day they make fun of it with the whole "it's about family, that's what's powerful about it" meme.And you even got it wrong a thing that would HELP your argument since they never said Daisy Ridley acting is bad. If you wanna disagree, prove your lies by posting links to the second they say any of those things in a video.

>>750211449How will people react when they see Rey’s new Jedi Order? Doing what everyone wanted Luke to do?
>>750211267>>750211449The biggest mistake TFA made was pandering to people who hated the Prequels. They blew up the Republic so they wouldn’t have to focus on politics and they straight up just don’t acknowledge the Prequels at all, especially since the existence of the ST pokes a ton of holes in what both the PT and OT established.
>>750211973And it’s all the fault of the Plinkett reviews.>JJ Abrams should direct a new Star Wars because I like the new Star Trek movie
>>750208714Zoomers hate RLM
>>750211973>The biggest mistake TFA made was pandering to people who hated the Prequels. They blew up the Republic so they wouldn’t have to focus on politics This is a major problem that people don't talk about enough. You have a certain subset of fans that's just like "lol what the fuck only nerds care about the internal logic of sci-fi worlds, I just want to watch spaceships blow up and pew pew lasers". They pandered to these alleged people because they thought they could make more money. It might have worked if they didn't also pack feminist bullshit into it.

>>750208349OG Star Wars had a huge upsurge of games in the 1990s. I think the Prequel games were just the tail end of that, personally.

Wouldn't the OT be the golden age because it came first and was really big? Like how can anything else be a golden age?Wouldn't Prequel be silver age because of all the secondary media it spawned? The numerous videogames aside, there was even a cartoon show that ran until like 2013. Star Wars was effectively booming all the way through the 2000s.Hard to say how the ST's legacy will be remembered since we're still somewhat in it. I haven't watched anything in like a decade so I can't commentate.
>>750213301>Star Wars was effectively booming all the way through the 2000s.That's why it's called the golden age. Because it's the most successful era.
>>750212326It’s amazing how TFA is basically a checklist of everything Plinkett asked Star Wars to be:>no Lucas involvement at all>no mention of Midicholrians or genetically inherited Force sensitivity>no focus on politics whatsoever>lightsaber duels are less flashy and choreographed and try to be more “gritty” and “real”>JJ as director>more naturalistic script writing instead of the 1940’s melodrama style that Lucas writes in>mostly practical effects with minimal CGIAnd the result was a total fucking train-wreck. I think people need to remember that internet critics are not professional critics and also aren’t filmmakers. They don’t know what they’re talking about when it comes to films. It reminds me of how Lucas said in an interview that “critics are cinematically illiterate”.
Hey /v/, should I marry a human girl or this Twi'lek I met on the HoloNet?
>>750213395>It reminds me of how Lucas said in an interview that “critics are cinematically illiterate”.And he's right. How many times a critic put out their own movie and it turned out like ass?
>>750208349Bad movies but amazing world building vs shitty movies with shitty world building
>>750212962>>750213301The OT era had some good Star Wars games, but the amount of good games the Prequel era produced was staggering. If you were a kid in the 2000’s, you were likely exposed to Star Wars. The bulk of the Star Wars fanbase nowadays is older Gen Z/ younger millennials.
>>750208714Force awakens is exactly why the sequel trilogy has no extra content. It has zero world building or logical lore. You can’t have a game take place during it or before it because the republic somehow didn’t think the force order existed despite them kidnapping millions of children. The entire story is broken from the start
>>750213551>If you were a kid in the 2000’s, you were likely exposed to Star WarsHell yeah. It was great.
>>750208714>post picture of someone>make shit up>/v/ automatically believes itIt's just way too easy to b8 on here
>>750213609Bro, you're not fooling anybody. Why die on this hell?
>>750213469Which one's the least likely to kill your kids?
The belief that RLM is responsible for the downfall of Star Wars is one of the most bizarre zoomer opinions.
>>750213476Almost every time unless that critic was also a filmmaker to begin with and being a critic was just a side thing for them. It’s funny because a lot of Lucas’ harshest critics like RLM and Chris Stuckmann have all made their own movies now, and their movies are all significantly worse than even Lucas at his lowest.
>>750208714>reddit letter media
>>750213801The Sequel trilogy is a direct response to the arguments RLM made against the Prequels. JJ Abrams openly admits he took cues from them and has also gone on record saying he hates the Prequels.

>>750208349Because it fucking sucks fucking bad
>>750213967Lucas also released his enhanced OG movies to theater in 1997
>>750213967The most acclaimed Star Wars games (KOTOR 1 and 2, Podracer, Battlefront 1 and 2, LEGO Star Wars) are all Prequel era games.
>>750213367>>750213551Yeah but that doesn't make it a golden age. The highest selling comic was in the 90s but that doesn't make it gold, silver, or even bronze age.
>>750213395>no mention of Midicholrians or genetically inherited Force sensitivity>no focus on politics whatsoever>lightsaber duels are less flashy and choreographed and try to be more “gritty” and “real”>more naturalistic script writing instead of the 1940’s melodrama style that Lucas writes in>mostly practical effects with minimal CGILiterally none of this is a bad thing. You ever consider JJ is terrible at his job and the movie would be shit no matter what your boogeyman said?
>>750213926>the first spoken line of the Sequels is a direct shot at the Prequels>the Sequels faceplant and irreversibly damage the IPkek
>>750208790Yes.As shit as the prequels were as pieces of cinema, the worldbuilding and infusion of new designs and concepts into the universe was immense. They also spawned an incredible number of consistently good and often outright amazing videogames. Then Clone Wars 2008 came and sucked the budget and soul out of the franchise...
>>750214341I feel like Special Edition hatred is so forced. Yes, there’s the odd questionable change like changing the musical number in Jabba’s Palace, but people are pretending stuff like getting to see more windows in Cloud City or having a bigger end celebration scene showing us Coruscant aren’t objective upgrades. Lucas isn’t even the first director to change his movies after release and he wasn’t the last either.
>>750208714>haha look at this plot hole in the movie that makes me not understand the plot>the "plot hole" was literally explained in excruciating detail by the characters in the movieThese guys are fucking morons.
>>750214481KOTOR isn't
>>750214705>retard thinks midichlorians and politics are bad
>>750214481Jedi Knight and Rogue Squadron are probably nearing the top of any list of acclaim
>>750214740The Prequels are genuinely good movies (especially RoTS), but they just have some rough edges that were blown way out of proportion by people who hated the movies at the time.
>OT mixed politics with fantasy>prequels were almost all politics and little fantasyThus, the natural thing was for the sequels to go full fantasy, explore the more esoteric side of the franchise.
>>750214847>midichlorians>good
>>750214808You get more clicks as a critic if you’re negative and act like everything you see is a cinematic abomination.
>>750214809>being this obtuseKOTOR came out between the prequel movies. It is part of that era and is clearly influenced by them regardless of when the plot of the game takes place.
>>750214847They are. The prequels sucked. The sequels sucked. The extended universe sucked. Star Wars has always been garbage outside of the original trilogy.
I rewatched the PT recently. >ep1Kind of boring, one or two cool fights though. In hindsight you can see Lucas was planting seeds but had no idea where it was really going. Things like Jedi philosophy really needed to get fleshed out more considering it becomes so important later on.If I had to fix it I'd make Anakin join the team earlier so he can spend time with Obi-Wan. Begin the Clone Wars by the end so it can be better developed in the next film>ep2More of a meme but also a complete slog in the middle. Obi Wan learning about the clone army isn't that interesting and it's dueling with Anakin and Padme's romance which is also boring. The sand people bit is fun though and the ending sequence isn't bad either. I think my fixes would just make the film more generic so I wouldn't even try. Dooku really needed more build up because as-is he's a Jedi that became a Sith and considering what happens next that's really important.>ep3It feels like Lucas finally figured out how to tell his story. The slow moments are paired better with fast action sequences so it's the only one that's decently paced. The main problem is that the foundation was shaky because of the first two films but otherwise it's a decent film, would watch again. It's nowhere near a great or horrendous trilogy. The fall of the Jedi is obviously an arc but because it's not set up in 1 it feels more like we're just learning more about them instead of seeing a group diminishing. Critics of how Anakin "brings balance to the Force" didn't get it, both Jedi and Sith are corrupting influences and neither represents a side of the Force. The weakest aspects are Anakin's relationships with Obi-Wan and Padme. I'd rewatch these before the OT even if I think they were better movies just because there's more substance to the prequels. I will never watch the ST again.Thank you for reading my blog.

>>750208714You guzzle cum daily.
>>750215042I fail to see how an explanation as to why some people can use the force while others can’t is a bad thing. The retcon the Sequs introduced where anyone can use the Force if they “just believe” is dumb Disney movie shit. Just because the Force dictates an influences the galaxy doesn’t mean anyone can use it.
>>750215028What are you talking aboutThe prequels had a ton of fantasyDid you even watch them?
>>750215028>prequels were almost all politics and little fantasyAnakin's literally Jesus.
>>750215141>massacring a marauding band of slavers who torture people to death for fun is akin shooting up a children's hospital
>>750215232Because it makes it hard for autists to self insert and pretend they have the Force.
>>750215232It never needed an explanation.
>>750215271And that's where the fantasy bits begin and end.>>750215237The entire plot is about the decaying republic and the huge conspiracy that the Clone Wars were.
>>750215042The only real problem with midichlorians is that Lucas introduced them as a concept and then basically did nothing with them. They're not inherently bad and certainly not something worth the amount of hate that they've gotten.>>750215141Actually it's more like a school shooting.
>>750215357>And that's where the fantasy bits begin and endTCW has the fantasy stuff
my biggest beef with the prequels is they made Vader lame. I really didn't need that big baddie shown as a kid.
>>750215361>Lucas introduced them as a concept and then basically did nothing with themBecause he was saving it for his sequels. He wanted the PT to focus on Anakin and the Republic's fall.
>>750215402Never show this guy a Hitler biopic.
Why is there no Rey games?
>>750215402>my biggest beef with the prequels is they made Vader lameHow so?
>>750215390It's not part of the movies though.Plus, the fantasy bits it did were handled terribly.They should lean more into LOTR than in lazy "Force gods" crap.
>>750215290I think he was more referring to him killing the younglings in the temple. Slaughtering the dirty sand people was based.
>it's been 25 years and people still seethe over midichlorians>midichlorians appear in three sentences over three movies and have no impact on the plot
>>750215487How can there be?
>>750215510NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>750215510Boomers thought young Vader would be a super gigachad greaser who rides a motorcycle and slays pussy.
>>750215453Yeah, he said his version of the sequels would use midichlorians more.>>750215535Is Lucas the greatest troll of all time? I don't think the ratio of effort expended on midichlorians to the amount of seethe generated has ever been surpassed.
>>750215141TRVKE
>>750215108I think a lot of the pacing issues of the Prequels comes down to the fact that the story is leagues more epic and ambitious in scope than the OT to the point where 3 movies genuinely isn’t enough time to cover it all. Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith both have deleted scenes that go deeper into Dooku’s past, Anakin’s connection with Padme and her parents and also Palpatine manipulating the senate and the formation of the Rebel Alliance, and they all add a ton more depth to the story. This is why people who say that TCW “fixed” the Prequels are only saying that because TCW had time to flesh out things that the Prequels only had enough time to hint at or imply.
>>750215631And this is exactly why he needed to not be that. The point of his character in the prequels was to demonstrate how institutions failed, and boomers who believed in the institutions got triggered by that.
>>750215357The main plot in the PT is about Anakin's fall to the dark sideThe republic and the rise of the empire are directly related to the jedi order. The movies are more fantasy than politics, you just didn't pay enough attention>Phantom Menace is about two jedi knights dealing with the Naboo plot and finding a kid with unusual magic powers>Attack of the Clones is about two jedi knights dealing with a secret army created by Count Dooku a jedi who turned to the dark side>Revenge of the Sith is about Anakin's fall to the dark side and the rise of Palpatine as emperor
>>750215578>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOThat's it? Him being upset that his wife died and he did horrible shit for nothing makes him lame?
>>750215402The entire point of Vader is that beneath the intimidating exterior, he’s just a sad, pathetic man. He’s not a slasher villain.
>>750215572What do you mean? They could make one set after episode 9
>>750215695Incels objectively do deserve more from society than they're getting. Incels are the majority of STEM workers without which modern technological civilization couldn't exist, but they get constantly shit on and told to simp for roasties.
>>750215141Anakin does self reflect, that's why he cries on Mustafar before Padme shows up.
The dialogue in episode 3 is good actually.
>>750215108Hal9000's fanedits are not only professionally made but are also very much still Lucas' films but with more polish.
>>750215810>pretending you didn't laugh at it like everyone else
>>750215857except for the entirety of the OT until the end he was this intimidating mystery. now we know all about him and can just roll our eyes at the former mystery.
>>750215695I would be a benevolent incel dictator though. I wouldn't do pointless evil things.
>>750215141>awkward incel behavior with his crushHe's too good looking and tall to be an incel, bro. It's only a problem if you're ugly
>>750215912Episode 3 does have some cool dialogue.But the>you're so beautiful>that's because I'm so in love>no it's because I'm so in love with you!>so love has blinded you?exchange is literally the worst dialogue in all of Star Wars, probably even including the Sequels.
>>750215868>They could make one set after episode 9They can't because they're still figuring out if they wanna do more Rey movies or not so they don't want studios to step on their toes.
>>750216002No, I'm not autistic.
>>750216054He went to repressed super mormon slave school during his puberty years. Bro has no idea how to romantically attract women.But it works anyways because of his Chad powers and good looks.
>>750216056A little cheesy and unnatural but not the worst thing ever.Now compare it to Finn and Rose’s romance.https://youtu.be/79CNws71XlI?is=MJUl3f7SVU8tIrXH
>>750215912>Don't get me wrong. Obi-Wan is a great mentor. As wise as Master Yoda and as powerful as Master Windu. I am truly thankful to be his apprenticeThe dialogue in the prequels is kino. People who shit on it probably dont even really like SW
>>750216190Lying faggot.
>>750216246Both of those people are ugly so I don't want to.
>>750215912>>750216056Lucas’ dialogue is genius when you consider that he’s taking complex political and philosophical ideas and writing them in a way that a 10 year old could understand them. That ability to introduce adult concepts to kids is part of what made the franchise successful. I feel like Lucas’ dialogue is only a failure if you’re expecting his dialogue to be naturalistic, which it never was. As melodramatic dialogue, it works just fine.
Will Rey and Cal Kestis meet in the 3rd Jedi game?
>>750216226>But it works anyways because of his Chad powers and good looks.This made me think of Elliot Rodger and how he posted on PUAHate and talked about watching the prequels in his manifesto. All these PUA grifters pretended like their shitty courses could make you attractive to women. You'd think anybody who watched the prequels would have been disabused of that notion because he has no game at all and girls still loved him.
>>750211298I've always thought that the People vs. Lucas doc was utterly biased just to shit on Lucas.
>>750216226>>750216459For all of Anakin’s faults, he’s genuine with his feelings. Padme is a pure hearted girl who wants to see the best in people, so she forgives a lot. The Anakin x Padme romance is a classic brooding edgelord x pure hearted girl romance just with a tragic ending.
>>750216392The SW saga doesn't have realistic or "grounded" writing. It's a fantasy tale set in spacePeople don't complain about the dialogue in the LOTR movies, nobody talks like that in real life because it's fantasy. People who don't even understand the genre of the movie they are critizing should not even be allowed to have an oponion
The real reason Star Wars started to suck is because of retards getting high off their own farts with grandiose visions of "what Real Star Wars SHOULD be" instead of knuckling down and actually writing some good shit.Lucas became obsessed with expanding the setting at the expense of character. Abrams blindly worshipped the OT's set pieces while ignoring the glue that held them together. Rian just wanted to push his gross femdom fetish and gay meta commentary. Filoni loves his little action figures and can't contain his autism. Tony Gilroy has been the only individual to make something great out of SW since the OT, and he did it by simply focusing on telling a good story instead of getting overwhelmed by the weight of the mythos surrounding the IP.The lesson to be learned here is one of hubris, to remember that the shit you may feel is important like "too many politics" doesn't matter nearly as much as adhering to the fundamentals. Star Wars was good because it stuck to the fundamentals of storytelling, something everyone seems to have forgotten.
I've come to realize that my penchant for the prequels isn't that they are these monumental defintiive films but that there's so much worldbuilding and story "fat" around it just like what a good RPG has. Even the criticisms of it being a "slog" or boring is the same critique some RPGs I do like get. It has always been an eerie thing.
>>750216686>classic brooding edgelord x pure hearted girl romanceWas that actually a classic? I feel like that only really became common in the last 30 years or so.
Whats your idea for a sequel trilogy era game?
>>750208406If my corporate overlord shit up bunch of dogshit it's a golden age like Trump and his endless Truthslop ramblings (reality may vary)
>>750216593Obviously. Mark Hamill apparently refused to be on the documentary because he realised it was a smear campaign against George. I’d go one further and say that the “Star Wars was saved in the edit” is also historical revisionism created as a cope to explain why people who don’t like the Prequels like A New Hope. The argument has been debunked by everyone involved in making ANH, and yet some people still believe it.
>>750216870Rewrite the entire sequel trilogy and make games based on that.
>>750216431I think Anakin is too hard on himself for the execution of Dooku on the Invisible Hand. They are on board the enemy flagship attempting to save the kidnapped Chancellor of the Republic. They are on a space ship in the middle of a space battle. Even with his hands cut off, Dooku can still use the Force, he is literally unable to be disarmed. Killing (or not killing) Dooku does not end the mission, he still has to escape from the Invisible Hand with both the Chancellor (as far as he knows, just an old man) and the unconscious body of Obi-Wan Kenobi.It is entirely unreasonable to expect that Anakin should try to escape the Invisible Hand with an old man, his unconscious friend, and a hostile Sith Lord.This is entirely different to the situation in the Chancellor's office where the Jedi could have legitimately arrested Palpatine as they were not in a literal warzone on a ship that could 'sink' at any moment.
>>750216056The novelisation fixed the shitty dialogue and is better than the film.
I hate the prequels, not as much as the sequels, but still so. You expect me to sympathize with the jedi , when they're shown to be evil and warmongerers and dogmatic retards. I was rooting for Palps the whole time.
>>750208714Wow you just filtered half of 4chan
>>750217076The novelization is certified based.
>>750216709That’s exactly what I mean. SW dialogue is heightened an unrealistic. I remember even as a kid noticing that the characters in the movies talk in an archaic “old-timey” kind of way. People I think people just criticise Star Wars for it more because it’s genuinely unusual for a sci-fi franchise to have that kind of dialogue, whereas in Tolkien-esque fantasy like LOTR, it’s expected.
>>750217141
>>750217096The prequels didn't expect you to sympathize with the Jedi. The entire point was about how the old Jedi failed.
>>750217096>I was rooting for Palps the whole time.Sounds like you should like the Prequels then since they are about Palpatine btfoing every single person who tries to stop him.
>>750208349>>750208714Genuinely impressive Anon, have a (You).
>>750217206>>750217141Maybe I'm just cynical but this writing seems cringe to me
>>750217274>>750217213It poisons the OG trilogy because now I don't want Luke to win. You made Palpatine, the evil space satan wizard, more sympathetic than the retarded rebels and resistance and republic. And look what happens when he dies in E6. After that, the entire new republic collapses in on itself because the leaders are peacenik hippies who dismantle their army.
>>750217431>the entire new republic collapses in on itself because the leaders are peacenik hippies who dismantle their army.Good thing the EU and Chronicles doesn't do that.
>>750217431If watching the prequels made it so you wanted the Empire you win, you always did. Nothing in the prequels paints Palpatine as the good guy.
>>750217536There's literally a scene where Palpatine's cumming at the amount of Dark Side he can feel from Anakin. Dude's nothing but evil.
>>750213967Absolutely loved playing X-Wing, TIE Fighter, Dark Forces, and Rogue Squadron. I also really liked Rebel Assault II: The Hidden Empire. Got some Empire Strikes Back music stuck in my head forever because of that game.
>>750217429Well if you don't like edgy Anakin, how about sad Anakin?
>>750217431>And look what happens when he dies in E6. After that, the entire new republic collapses in on itself because the leaders are peacenik hippies who dismantle their army.I just cannot accept anything that Disney has put out as being canon, it's all fanfic to me. Not in some angry, grrr-they-messed-it-up sense, but I just don't buy that:>Han fought Cthulhu>the Falcon has a feminist robot uploaded into it>Luke would actually consider murdering his nephew in his sleep>somehow Palpatine returned>oh and has a fleet of death star destroyers>hyperspace = space nuke>obi wan shuffled a loli-leia out of an Imperial base under a trenchcoat>apparently like a dozen other jedi are out having adventures during the OT>boba fett was taught the value of social justice by the tuskans
>>750217518The alternative is even worse, since it literally justifies EVERYTHING Palpatine did as him preparing for the Yuuzhan Vong.>>750217536>>750217648That's because the OG wasn't trying this bullshit of "oh but both sides le bad" like the prequels. You had a bad guy and a good guy, it was nice and simple. The prequels had to wander in, trying to le subvert expectations by making the republic the real bad guys, and making Palpatine justified.
>>750217141The scene before the Dooku fight and his death were kino
>>750217867>direction brainismYou start out with the prequels telling us both sides were bad, then say Palpatine was portrayed as justified. You can't even decide what the basis for your criticism is.
>>750217867The Republic are the good guys, but they’re just being manipulated. Palpatine literally wants to rule the whole galaxy just because he’s evil and his religion mandates that he be a cruel and malevolent asshole.
>>750217867The Prequels don't ever portray the Jedi as bad guys (unlike TCW), just that they are arrogant and stupid. It doesn't even say that they deserved to die for being arrogant and stupid, it's supposed to be a tragedy.
>>750217867>That's because the OG wasn't trying this bullshit of "oh but both sides le bad" like the prequels. You had a bad guy and a good guy, it was nice and simple. The prequels had to wander in, trying to le subvert expectations by making the republic the real bad guys, and making Palpatine justified.the community surrounding Star Wars was sympathetic to the Empire, or TIE Fighter (1994) probably never would have gotten made. If anything didn't the Sequels do the opposite and make it clearly good vs bad (I didn't watch so only based on impressions)
>>750217715I'd say that's better, but I think it's because I've always found Anakin's fall to the Dark Side in RotS to be jarringly abrupt. He goes from causing Samuel Jackson's death for what could be reasonably argued as stepping in to prevent Jackson from going too far himself, for an understandable goal. Had the remaining time in the movie not been alarmingly short, it would have made alot more sense to have his next actions be justifiable but descending further into darkness at each step. Instead he instantly snaps to child murder and I don't really buy it
>>750218107>the community surrounding Star Wars was sympathetic to the EmpireThis was only ever a small group of contrarians. They made X-wing first and almost every game set in the OT era has been from the perspective of the Rebels.
>>750218034>>750218027If you guys have gone into the deeper media and not just the movies, pretty much everything portray the jedi as warmongering assholes, and their being manipulated hardly even feels new. For example, the entire reason why General Grievous is even a threat to begin with, is because the jedi slaughtered his people for defending themselves against invaders, and the jedi, in their infinite wisdom, didn't think to stop and assess the situation first.
>>750208349Because you are absolutely wrong and it´s the other way around? Well, not exactly. OT is the actual golden age but the prequels build over them. They expand the world and relevant character backgrounds and conflicts. Ultimately everything on the prequels is at the service of the bigger picture and the story and SW is THAT story, not the universe itself. The magic of it comes from being aware of that fact. Comparatively Disney Wars adds nothing. It shamelessly and shallowly takes recognizable elements from the real SW to build whatever this never ending MCU like abomination is but that´s pretty much it. One could easily argue it´s not SW at all as it almost completely lacks the elements that gave SW it´s identity and since there is no clear purpose or end goal to it´s media one could hardly call it a story at all.
>>750218027Episode I makes it very clear that the Republic is controlled by corporations. The Republic was never good.
>>750218034>>750218027I would also like to bring up that the republic has no problem with torture and slavery, since they basically let the Hutts operate with complete impunity. Notice how Anakin was never allowed to go back to Tattooine to free his mother? Not even to pay for her freedom.
>>750218398The Republic is not controlled by corporate interests. It's just too weak and toothless to actually do anything to the corporations when they get uppity.Which is a different failing of democracy.
>>750218448>Notice how Anakin was never allowed to go back to Tattooine to free his mother? Not even to pay for her freedom.Because the Jedi don't allow attachments.
>>750208349>Disney era is the golden age of Star WarsWhat the fucking hell are you talking about? Nobody says this.
>>750218448Tatooine is at the ass end of the galaxy and the Republic's influence doesn't extend that far.
>>750218448Tatooine is not in the Republic, and the Hutts do not operate in Republic space.Unless we want the Jedi to be galaxy conquering super cops with universal jurisdiction.
>>750208349Gina Canaro deserved better. Fuck Disney.
>>750218271They EU created a bunch of popular characters within the Empire -- Grand Admiral Thrawn, Admiral Pellaeon. The EU also had many worlds genuinely benefit from the Empire. The EU was much more interested in verisimilitude and worldbuilding.
>>750218590Gina could have bent Disney over and fed them into a wood chipper during discovery but decided to let them off the hook and take a settlement so she could move on. Thanks Gina!
>>750208349>Prequels era is the dark age of Star Wars>still makes a fuckton of money
>>750218485>saving someone from slavery is le bad because le attachments>but Ki Adi Mundi can fuck a hundred women to preserve his species, as long as he treats them like whores and not like wives>>750218585>>750218512I'm not saying to go in there and kill the hutts and free all the slaves. At least let Anakin pay for his mother's freedom. The "it's an attachment" bullshit is a copout, because it implies that you should never save someone's life if it means getting attached to them. Somehow that completely ruins the jedi code or something.
>>750208949Thank fuck. The Vong are peak retarded.
>>750208349more money in streaming service slop.
For me, it's Zsinj.
>>750218708Freeing Anakin's mom because she's Anakin's mom creates issues for the Jedi and their code.>why did you save Shmi but not the slave down the street?>well we had to save Shmi because she's Anakin's mom>so being Anakin's mom makes her special? her life has more value than the other slaves on Tatooine?Jedi are 'supposed to' (and they don't, obviously Jedi have friends and mentors, and attachment to the order itself) treat everyone the same. Inability to deal with these contradictions are why the Jedi only take infants for indoctrination.
>>750219002Hence why I brought up Ki Adi Mundi as an example. What makes his race worth saving over anothers? If they're supposed to not form attachments, he should stop being attached to his own species. Let them die out, it's the "will of the force". Obviously they ignore this blatant hypocrisy because rules for thee, not for me.Hence why I was happy to see the jedi die out. Palps did nothing wrong, as my campaigns in Star Wars: Empire at War will attest.
>Disney Star Wars gradually turned into completely shitNow we are gonna have to deal with the neckbears whining about their EU slop being better, forever. Or at least until the Star Wars franchise dies for good.
>>750208349wuh
>>750215731That's not what I mean, I meant the more esoteric aspects of the franchise like the Celestials and such.
>>750217102>half of 4chanthis is nothing compared to a lot of other posts on this site
>>750219002>so being Anakin's mom makes her special? her life has more value than the other slaves on Tatooine?>"Anakin is a special case, having shown signs of being a potentially prophetical prodigy. We assessed that the mental burden of his mother being enslaved posed a greater risk to his training than was acceptable, and so for the greater good deviated somewhat from our norms"You could then use this to show why Anakin is so impatient for advancement in the later prequels, because he's gotten used to the Jedi making exceptions and special cases for him.
>>750219881It's not just about some nebulous prophecy. He's by far the strongest Jedi in the Order outside of the Council despite having started his training later in life than any of them. He only lost to Obi-Wan because he got too cocky and because Obi-Wan had trained him and knew his moves. They'd be stupid not to make exceptions for him.
>>750220058They should've killed him.
>>750220190>kill a 9-year-old kid instead of the Sith Lord plotting to turn him to the dark side
>>750216870I think the biggest issue with the sequels when it comes to spinoff material is simply that the entire trilogy happens over only a couple years. Phantom Menace to Revenge of the Sith is 13 years. New Hope to Return of the Jedi is 5. And of course you have like 18 years between the end of the prequels and the start of the OT. It's probably why nearly all EU material for the sequels has actually been in the 30 year period between the OT and the sequels. For the sequels themselves, it's just too compressed a period of time to do anything interesting with.
I'm really getting into the mood for Star Wars again. Has anything good come out since Andor s2? Comics, books, shows, games, I'll take anything.
>>750208349>Disney era is the golden age of Star Wars
>>750218027The Republican system couldn't manage an empire the size of the Roman Republic. How the fuck will it manage a whole-ass GALAXY?
>>750208349there was no golden age of star wars
>>750208349>golden eralmaothe real reasons are:1- that disney is retarded about synergy so if they were to make a game that happened betwen episode 8 and 9 they would have to make it canon 2-disney fucked up the sequels by making them all happen in the span of a year, they have NO room to include a side adventure
>>750208714>The Force Awakens was a masterpieceStopped right there
>>750208714>Rey is the best Star Wars protagonist we've ever hadThey never said that.>The Last Jedi was a masterpiece that was hated because it dared take risksThey never said that.Not defending their taste though. Daisy Ridley sucked and so did TFA.
>>750221738I keep hearing that Daisy Ridley sucked and I'm not really going to contest that, but I'd like to hear which actress her haters think should have played her character (or a reworked version of her if you want to rewrite the sequels).
>>750221785If I knew that answer I'd be making millions in bribes and kickbacks as a Hollywood casting director.So my answer is "an actor who doesn't suck."
>>750221785Star Wars should be for boys first. Don’t have a female protagonist at all.
>>750221785If I get to rewrite the Sequels I'm sure as shit not making the main protagonist a girl.
>>750210176No, especially not Rogue One and Andor. Fucking midwits only like them because their youtube algos told them to.
>>750208349Isn't Disney handing the Star Wars license to lots of game companies now? I know David Cage is still working on some movie game shit probably?
>>750221903>>750221934Fair enough, the OT and PT had a male main protagonist, but you'd still have to have a female lead even if she's not the official main character.>>750221960truthdeathstar
>>750221785I don't really care to speculate on who should play who. Rey is largely a non-character, so it's hard to say who would play her best. Alicia Vikander or Anya Taylor-Joy might have been good but idk.
Unironically how you can be SW fan in 2026?
>>750221785This is the kind of question that should be asked near the start of a thread desu
>>750221785>I'd like to hear which actress her haters think should have played her character (or a reworked version of her if you want to rewrite the sequels)Daisy herself wasn't the problem, it was a combination of writing and direction. There's a few scenes where she does quite well, it's that Rey is a horribly blank character in a badly written story. She has barely any meaningful agency as a character, but as a plot device has inexplicable powers dropped on her at a moment's notice.
The real question is, why the FUCK hasn't Galactic Racer been cracked yet?
>>750208714>Only reason Daisy Ridley's acting is bad is because she realized she's too good for this franchise so she stopped caring.That was definitely some sleight of hand from Gay Bottomman>It's not her fault the character is a Mary Sue>The fans are manbabies that seethe at her character>Therefore, she's ackshually a good actress and anything that isn't good acting is her not caring because of the reasons above1 and 2 don't logically lead to 3
REEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!
>>750208349>golden age of Star WarsThis is obvious bait
>>750222409Daisy Ridley is a dogshit actress. Adam Driver had to work with the same shitty nonsense writing and at least acted in his role. Daisy Ridley could barely act up to the plank of wood that they wrote Rey to be.
I went into TFA blind with a group of friends cautiously optimistic that it wouldnt be dogshit but dear god it was so bad i spent the entire car ride back ranting about how terrible it was then got on here and continued ranting for 4 hours straight. I swore off the mainline movies immediately but i still had hope for the spinoffs but rogue one was also dogshit. I havent watched a star wars movie since. Why the hell has everyone here watched all of them?

From what I've heard the parks and merchandise for sequel era Star Wars hasn't done well. As an outsider it's fascinating to watch. Force Awakens was inescapable when it first came out. I remember seeing some commercials where Star Wars boomers were sharing the series with their children. Now that magic is replaced by cynicism.
>>750221738>They never said that.Rich didHe considers it to be one of the best Star Wars movies and says it was only hated because it was too smart for the average Star Wars fan, and that showing Luke as a grumpy hobo was a fun decision
>>750217141>>750217206In a vacuum it falls flat but when you understand this is a guy who’s taking out years of hatred on the people who caused the deaths of his friends and loved ones it makes sense, especially after a lifetime of repressed emotions. I’d bask in it too
>>750215164>imageFace capture technology probably doesn't capture makeup
>>750226238I think it's interesting how non-sadistic Vader is after years of war. In the movie, he silently executes the CIS council one by one; and in the novelization he drops Chad one liners on them as he kills them, but other than that he doesn't revel in making them suffer. He just ends them and moves on.
>>750208714>The Force Awakens was a masterpiece
>>750208714why did anyone take these retards seriously?
>>750216392>>750216709>>750217203Exactly. The fact that it's 2026 and people still don't grok that he was purposely aping Shakespeare for the prequels, I just... How do people not pick this stuff up?
>>750208349>star wars>amazing gamesyou can't be serious
>>750227664>he was purposely aping Shakespeare for the prequelsAnd? There isn't any inherent merit to that.
>>750213609are you going to pretend that they criticized TFA or TLJ with the same harshness with which they criticized the prequels?
>>750227297>White>Angry>Ironic humor>Not manletsOne wonders. Oh, to be blessed with the confidence and career success of a mediocre white man.
>>750216056>probably even including the Sequels.
>>750227838>Why do they talk like that?Because it's Shakespeare.>Why are they wearing those clothes?Because it's Shakespeare.>How come there's all these weird political themes?Because it's Shakespeare.>Why is everything so melodramatic?Because it's Shakespeare.Flip it around. People think there's an inherent demerit to those elements because "they don't make sense". But they do make sense, because it's Shakespeare(an).And once you realize what Lucas is trying to do, even the bits where he falls short are appreciable because you can see what the goal was.
>>750208349Disneywars was a flop and the only Star Wars properties from Disney that people give a fuck about are early Mandalorian and Andor, Both of which take place close to the original trilogy.
>>750208349The cast wasn't really the problem. The sequels easily have the best acting in the entire franchise. Literally the whole thing was just ruined by JJ Abrams's prequel hatred. He pivoted so far back towards mimicking the OT that he gave the sequels nothing original to work with.
>>750216392>Original TrilogyAbout the Vietnam war. Compelling>Prequel TrilogyAbout the Executive branch seizing power after 9/11. Somewhat compelling>Sequel Trilogy About nothing, Bad.
>>750227963Mad shitskin lol
>>750228469No they don't lmao
>>750228247>you don't get it, he's imitating a good writerThen why isn't his writing good?>uhhhhh
>>750208349???
>>750228972What's bad about his writing?>Why do they talk like that?>How come there's all these weird political themes?>Why is everything so melodramatic?Oh, so it's not bad, you just have no taste.
>>750229790>I don't like sand... it's course... rough... irritating... and it gets everywhere... not like you... you're soft... and smooth...I'm pretty sure if Shakespear threw that line in Romeo and Juliet the audience would have fucking laughed at it every time it was performed and started throwing tomatoes at the actors on stage
>>750230307I don't like sand isn't even a bad line.
How high are your standards if you are calling Daisy Ridley ugly?
>>750230359You're right, it's not a bad line, it's one of the most god awful lines in the entire fucking series second only to anything that comes out of Jar Jar Bink's god damn mouth
>>750216885Meds
>>750230307>*coarseIt's interesting how this line gets trotted out. There's literally nothing wrong with it.
>>750212762I thought it was Steve Jobs’s widow who owns the largest share
>>750230829It's not at all a bad line. Nearly every other 'romance' line between Anakin and Padme is worse.>Padme: We used to come here for school retreat. We would swim to that island every day... I love the water. We used to lie out on the sand and let the sun dry us and try to guess the names of the birds singing.>I don't like sand... It's coarse and rough and irritating. And it gets everywhere. Not like here... Here everything is soft and smooth.Padme starts the scene by reminiscing about her swanky childhood going on beach vacations with her friends from the young republicans society. Anakin responds by pointing out that his experience with sand is less positive. The exchange isn't grammatically clunky, it's in character, and it contains actual subtext about the backgrounds of the characters.>hurr durr he don't like sandis just a retarded meme on the level of most RLM criticisms.
hide yo younglings cuz he comin
>>750230418She's alright if you fix her hair up a bit. There's two things that can fuck up an attractive woman's appearance: her hairstyle and the type of glasses she wears. Also weight and age to a lesser extent.
>>750208949>>750210759Adding to my claude backlog
>>750233123Maybe but she looks good with several different hairstyles >>>/hr/5188289
The biggest issue with the sequels is that it forgot that star wars is supposed to be a series for little boys. Not the balding manchild who grew up watching the ot, not the late 20's zoomer who grew up with the PT. What character is a little boy supposed to play pretend as or resonate with? Rey? Finn (lmao). The only remotely cool character is Kylo and he's a bad guy and also pathetically lame. I dont get it. You cant just bank on nostalgia like JewJew Gaybrams did, you have to actually make something unique and cool. Not just lame and gay. Same issue with bibeo games these days.
As always, they guy who flies the cool plane and the guy with the sword made of light. So, yes, Finn and Poe.>But Finn's an annoying n-New guy? Yeah. But so was Anakin and everyone my age still wanted to get in a pod racer.
>>750237792How well do the finn and poe toys sell for? Halloween costumes?
No little boy wants to be finn (emasulated n-word who doesnt even become a jedi) or poe (emasulated possibly gay?? Non jedi)They even made han and luke losers, whos the male role model? Fucking chewbacca???
>>750238294Fun fact I remember seeing my very younger cousin say something like "so a black is inside every Storm Tropper? So that's why they can't aim at all"
>>750211353Yes they are you lying attention whore faggot. kys.
>>750208714>complete made up bullshit>because they criticized your shitty prequelsZoomers are extremely mentally ill
>>7502087148/10that was pretty good, you got a lot of people mad
>>750210884star wars is a bad franchise filled with awful movies, it just had great worldbuilding which caused it to have great spinoffs
Rlm literally just did not understand PM.Funny reviews but not of any real merit
>>750211298meeso sorry
>>750238135You didn't say toy and costume sales, you said who they play pretend as.
>>750238294Both of those things are Rian Johnson's fault. Finn took a literal pound of flesh from a Sith Lord, wielding a lightsaber without any lightsaber training; Poe helped blow up a planet.Everyone forgets that TFA lived up to the hype, it was just Part 1 of a 3-part story that never got finished.>>750238467Things that never happened. Every kid knows its Nazis that can't aim. Tupac and Biggie wish your imaginary cousin was right, though.
>>750208714citing RLM ever as a positive is peak retardation, especially now since they're AIslop enjoyers
>>750240607And they dont play pretend as them are you kidding me lmao?If they arent buying toys or costumes they arent playing as them, big ass shocker there.
>>750208349>>Disney era is the golden age of Star WarsOP is brown and or a zoomer and or a leftist
>>750241023Not today, of course not. The movie came out over 10 years ago.
>>750223812What's it called?
>>750208714Retard
>>750211353dude he broke out plinkett just to shit on the sequels and raped TLJ for almost an hour straightthe only good things he had to say about TLJ were that the visuals were fine and that it was possibly salvageable if they stop being retarded and replace johnson
>>750223812the prequels will remain rancid dogshit no matter how angry you get at the people telling you the truth
>>750241947https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkW035f_hZ8I think it was this one. Might have exaggerated the length.
I'm gonna say it: Hayden Christensen's line deliveries in the prequels are like half the reason 2 and 3 are bad. It's not a good plot, I don't think he continued being a shitty actor and he had high moments (especially in 3), but 90% of the time when he is monologuing it sounds like I'm listening to a high school play. If he was directed to talk like that then I apologize to him, but it is really fucking bad.
>>750210176>worth watchingMando S1 and the very end of Rogue One
>>750242550Nice, thanks.
>>750242582I genuinely don't understand this view.Also he would have made a really good Char.
>>750211006With TFA, i think people were willing to overlook its flaws since it was the first Star Wars movie in a decade, and while it was the start of the rot it was something a casual fan might not even think about until it was pointed out to them. TLJ is bad, but it's in your face about it, I'd go so far as to say it's proud of what it's doing, and even the casuals began to notice.
>>750237792Poe basically doesn't exist. He gets like three lines a movie and doesn't do anything. He's on par with Naboo's captain of the guard from episode one. Guy with a couple lines and a fancier wardrobe than the rest of the background characters.
>>750243458Nah dude i think the naboo black captain guy was way more important and cool than poe was
>>750208714>The Force Awakens was a masterpieceIt's impressive how circlejerked this movie is despite being the single most damaging movie in the franchise. For the sake of returning to status quo they shat completely on the original trilogy>Luke failed to set up a new Jedi Order in 30 years so we're back to like 2-3 Jed in the whole galaxy (just like ANH whoa!)>Rebels winning didn't matter because (somehow) the Empire survived and (somehow) they made a (planet-sized) Death Star (about 20x the size of the original moon sized one) which (somehow) shoots (multiple) planet destroying lasers (just like ANH!) and gathered enough troops to become a lasting threat in the galaxy>New Republic, despite having lasted more than the Empire, failed to militarize so now theres a seperate military called the Resistance that uses the exact same gear and ships as Rebels (oh my god oh my god thank you for bringing back the thing I recognize!! From ANH!!)This glorified remake is the single most brainless nostalgia pandering slop of the 21st century. I would even say this movie being the way it is set TLJ and TROS up for failure.
>>750208349>>750208714There's no bait here, it's just the hook.
>>750208349anon, that bait was terrible
>>750230307>not like you... you're soft... and smooth...I don't remember that part
>>750210990And then the empine, sorry, first order blows a massive hole on the rebel, sorry, resistance base as she gives him a smoochThe funniest shit I've ever seen
>>750215695Yep, that's me.
>whyThey are literally afraid to progress the story in the chance it box them in for future movies that they have been saying they want to make for the better part of a decade They have no idea what to do the only thing they have is Rey restarting the jedi school, but there is a non 0 chance that they would make the new trilogy be empire vs rebels again and they don't want to portray the new republic as incompetent at least on purpose
>>750243458>>750243928The samefagging and trolling is silly and sad.
>>750222409daisy is a bad actress. she really doesn't have nearly the same level of charisma or range adam driver, oscar isaac or even bodega and believe me they have tried the only thing she can do is be a emotionless awkward lady. I honestly feel sorry for her being picked for this role and then she probably thought that the roles were going to be flooding in.
>>750208349>>750208714I was 10 when TPM came out. I hated it. Didn't care for AotC or RotS either. I didn't need RLM to justify why I didn't like them. And no, the sequels existing doesn't change my mind about them.
>>750208349>>Gets tons of amazing gamesThat were all outsourced to various studios. Very few inhouse games were actually good.
>>750226002Why? It's fucking /v/ of all places. My favorite part is how the fucking jannies let it stay up.
>>750247834focus on exposition and politics rather than character action does that
>>750208714Read my post, it pretty much sums it upDisney killed even my previous interest in Star Wars, I don't watch the originals or the prequels anymore because it's that dead to me.
>>750245456How does having no braincells feel?Freeing I assume?
>>750208349I know this is bait but your mother should have swallowed you.
>>750215695The jedi deserved it and were viable military targets. Child soldiers can be killed on the battlefield even irl btw, and we don't know enough about the republic to say that Younglings don't count.In other words, morally Anakin did a bad thing, but legally he did not. He is possibly not a genocidal murderer, because his actions were legally sanctioned.
>>750247983Politics in a story can be fun, but the problem is it wasn't for the prequels because you didn't have any connection to whatever problems either side had. Oriental aliens and their associates who own shitton of robots had a trade dispute and decide to be le ebil by occupying Naboo and eventually going to war with the Republic.....and thats it for them.Pic related of a good space opera involving politics.
>>750245398>ReyThis character is never gonna be seen again kek.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hNAji3lIGE
>>750208714>actually admitting that you're getting your opinions from youtubers
>>750209620You are into native american girls, aren't you?
>>750242582Maybe he should have been dubbed over. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aYOrSfcmjc
>>750214740What's wrong with Clone Wars?
>>750213469well, your kids will either end up as a mottle pattern twi'lek or el muttala de ryloth
>>750211084No the fuck he didn't?
>>750208714Star Wars was never good and George Lucas only made one good movie: American Graffiti
>>750253716nta but tcw has a fuckton of retcons spanning from pre-established events in the eu to being contradictory to the films themselves it also doesn't line up with rots nearly as well as genndywars and that's just unforgivable
>>750209029Don't forget the New Republic decided the best way to stop war from happening was to dismantle their own military. As in all of it, that one fleet they show around the New Republic planet as it exploded was 99% of their entire military might.Of course the writing reason for this was so the tiny remnants of the Empire could still be written as the overwhelming evil army and the New Republic could be the scrappy underdogs despite being the dominant force in the galaxy.
>>750210990For me, it was the Holdo Maneuver that only makes sense if you read it as her being a coward that was trying to ditch everyone to die and suicide bombed the enemy ship by complete accident.And broke the lore of how hyperspace works so badly that they had to spend several minutes addressing why they can't do it again (in an explanation that basically amounted to "We just can't, okay?").
>>750211629>Disney literally made Fortnite canon to Star WarsWhat the fuck were they thinking?
SCRIB DOOOOON
