I've been thinking about the fantasy and spiritual themes in Star Wars a lot lately. Not sure why it's in my head. But I'm wondering why Ben would give Luke the lightsaber Anakin used to kill all those Jedi, and why Rey would be encouraged to use it too.
In most fantasy settings there would be bad things associated with a weapon like that, even in settings that are less spiritual or magical than Star Wars. But no, we're handing "child killer" over to entry level jedi left and right.
I can understand why Kylo Ren would want it, given the inherent dark energy that would be connected to the weapon after such an act, but it's interesting to me how they're tying it more to birthright than any sort of dark side influence.
Matthew Russell
First for best clone.
Jordan Price
It did more good than bad, user, and redemption is also a common theme.
Jeremiah Walker
I was expecting it to be Luke's green lightsabre, considering Anakin's went down a big hole with Luke's hand.
Jace Rivera
Ditto
Christopher Rivera
I always wished Sheev gave Anakin a red lightsaber right after he killed Windu. That way Darth Vader would have had the red saber from the start and the blue one wouldn't have been used to kill children.
Angel Campbell
>children
You mean "younglings"?
Oliver Barnes

Lucas King
Rey must have a shit ton of midichlorians to be able to pull of the shit she does in TFA right? Seeing as she's had no train, like Anakin in TPM.
Could it be possible that she has an even higher count than Anakin did?
Sebastian Ross
Midichlorian account doesn't mean anything when it comes to being powerful in the force. It just means that you're Force sensitive. Having a high account means that they're attracted to you because you're Force sensitive.
Jayden Stewart
I always thought being born with a high midichlorian count was like a "shortcut" to being very force sensitive. I guess I've misinterpreted it.
Ethan Thompson
I'm almost tempted to go into a 'lightsabers don't kill people' debate, but that would be ridiculous. The way I saw it, the Skywalker lightsaber has been at the crux of many an important event, both good and bad.
Then again, perhaps it's an element of foreshadowing as well. Those who had it would experience great tragedy, but ultimately prevail once separated from it. It really has me thinking now.
William Reed
What if the dark deeds connected to the Skywalker family have washed it in dark energy?
What if it was the reason Luke disobeyed Obiwan and Yoda and went to confront Vader on bespin? Would he have given in if he still had that Lightsaber above Endor?
How will it effect Ray? The Dark Side gives you strength, what if that's how she beat Kylo?
Matthew Anderson
Honestly, that was my first impression of that fight. The whole time, I couldn't help but notice just how aggressive she became when she gained the upper hand. Kind of makes you wonder if she would've stopped had the planet not begun breaking apart at that point.
Alexander Butler
how can you tell. they are literally all the same
Nicholas Barnes
Oh snap, that's actually a pretty good theory.
Luke making his green lightsaber after losing the blue one is symbolizing him leaving the dark side behind, which fits how he's lots more spiritual in ROTJ.
Maybe Rey is going to be more in tune with the Force once she gets her own lightsaber.
Anakin's saber throwing people off into the dark side sounds like an awesome gimmick with some pretty good story potential.
Jack Gray
The novelization more confirms that she probably tapped into the dark side to beat Kylo but then pulled back at the last moment. I think it even says that she heard a voice in her head telling her to kill him. People speculate that it was Snoke.
It's probably what made her scar his face when he was already down for the count. I think Rey's going to struggle with the Dark Side even more than Luke did. It's pretty much the only tension she has left in the story, since she's already so effortlessly powerful.
I don't think it's all just connected to the lightsaber, though.

I think it even says that she heard a voice in her head telling her to kill him. People speculate that it was Snoke. I've maintained that in the films no Jedi has beaten a Sith/Dark Jedi without using the darkside a little (I'm sure the CGI shows refute this). Luke only ever got the upperhand on Vader when he was angry, Obi-Wan clearly hated Maul, and Anakin couldn't do shit to Dooku unless he was pissed off.
The only one that wasn't angry when he beat people was episode 3 obi-wan.
Nicholas Lewis
Damnit.
Carter Harris
Kreia was right.
Chase Turner
Literally did nothing wrong.
Chase Reed
>I've maintained that in the films no Jedi has beaten a Sith/Dark Jedi without using the darkside a little
Except for when Yoda had bested Dooku in AoTC. He didn't kill or capture him, but it was obvious that the match was Yoda's. And Windu had Sidious beaten as well in RoTS.
Oliver Moore
Well, considering the Dark Side is natural, you're probably right. It's just another element of "managing your emotions, not letting them manage you."
It's ok to be angry, and let that anger compel you, but not let it control and drive you.
Parker Ward

He didn't the prequels don't fit with the Original Trilogy in any way spiritually or thematically.

Aaron Watson

Julian Martinez
I meant the part about Form VII using the dark side.
Adrian Powell
Not only is that an EU thing, it came from the dumbest reasoning that his purple lightsaber meant he was between light and dark, despite none of Mace's actual actions and words really displaying any greater dark side tendency than other Jedi. This wasn't even a thing before Shatterpoint came out and suddenly Mace is so strong with the dark side that he has psychopathic tendencies and literally daydreams of murdering innocent people for absolutely no reason (yes, this happens in Shatterpoint).
Alexander Mitchell
>Revan wielded two lightsabers, one red, and one violet. However, his minifigure only uses a red one.
So we're just accepting that as legends canon now? Did he pick up the violet one after his switch back to the lightside? Because he didn't have it when he was Sithing around.
Jason Hughes
I thought it was just because Mace looked furious every time he was fighting.
Andrew Phillips
You're reading too much into it. Besides, his Black Series figure has both.
Hunter Howard
it just seems it would make more sense to let it back inside, since he's already shown that he has complete control over it. Instead he kills the dark side.
Angel Butler
Yeah, but Samuel L. Jackson always looks a little pissed off.
Noah Cook
No, that's just a natural thing to happen in a fight or in any physically demanding activity. As a novice swordsman myself I find my face contorting and my expressions seemingly angry like all the time.
Also, Sam motherfucking Jackson.
Jose Gonzalez
That's not literally his Dark side outside of his body, its an apparition that represents his Dark side. Killing it is simply defeating the apparition
Leo Gonzalez
yes, but the whole this is symbolic of how Yoda looks at, and deals with, the dark side, and it';s a lot less in harmony than you'd expect from a Jedi. Or a religion based around harmony. Instead of accepting his evil nature, showing an understanding that fear and anger have an important place in what it means to be alive, but never letting those emotions dominate his life, he instead dominates and kills his evil nature.
For Lucas the force being "balanced" has never meant that knowing there is good and there is bad and that the two need each other, it's always been "good winning is balance"
Dominic Collins
I'm so pissed off that Kylo Ren wasn't just Revan, and how he dealt with the Mandalorians.

Ayden Hughes

Jason Gray
Is it at all likely that they will pull a Thrawn and bring Revan into canon?
I haven't played KOTOR, but from what I know about Revan, he primarily works in the medium of video games, and making another game with the same twist would be redundant.
Hudson Brooks
...
Nicholas Hughes
It'll never work. It'll only drag out the bitchers and complainers who will bitch and complain about how canon Revan is not the true Revan
Luke James
I'm sure they could, but it seems like they're not particularly interested in the Old Republic era right now. If they do, it probably won't be for a while.
That won't stop people from freaking out any time there's any hint of a KOTOR reference anywhere, because that means KOTOR AND REVAN WILL BE RECANONIZED 100% ANY MINUTE NOW!
Aaron Wilson
I am like 100% sure Revan will be canon.
Isaiah Russell
Kreia's speech about Revan make him 10x as interesting as he actually was.
But that's probably a mix of Avellone's writing and Sara Kestelman's acting.
Aiden Cruz
Filoni's been talking about Thrawn since 2010, and they've been planning to reintroduce him since fall 2014.
I doubt Revan will come back unless they find a good way to do it like they did with Bane(Revan and Bane were originally going to be in the Mortis trilogy)
Parker Russell
I could see them making him canon, but it's a question of how much he'll actually be around. If he's just a hero they talk about they don't need to do the twist again.
>I don’t know who Donald Glover is. But as far as I’m concerned, I would say they [”Star Wars” producers] should leave that character alone. I don’t think you can do any more than what I did with that character. I think I made that character into something very special, and I can’t imagine anybody else doing it, to be very frank with you.
Zachary White
I kind of agree with him, but then I've been against the Han movie altogether from the beginning.
Dylan Reed
Bane was actually created by George Lucas for the backstory for TPM (and first appeared in the novelization for that movie).
Revan being a part of the Mortis arc was probably Dave's idea, but he and George decided against it with the way that they were building the story.
Andrew Rogers
>Bane was actually created by George Lucas for the backstory for TPM (and first appeared in the novelization for that movie).
I know that, I wasn't claiming otherwise. He technically never appeared in canonical material(as the EU was never truly canon) and I was just talking about his appearance in TCW.
>Revan being a part of the Mortis arc was probably Dave's idea, but he and George decided against it with the way that they were building the story.
Revan and Bane being part of it was Dave's idea IIRC after George wanted Sith lords to appear, but after some discussion they both decided it didn't fit with how the Sith work, that they can't become Force Ghosts. At least, IIRC.
Bane of course later came back in the form of an illusion in the Yoda arc.
Revan will only come back if they can find a way to do it like they did with Bane.
Luis Clark
what is the point of Revan anyway?
Nathan Adams
What the hell is 'Revan' even a derivative of?
>Bane from bane - a cause of great distress or annoyance.
>Plagueis from plague - a contagious bacterial disease characterized by fever and delirium, typically with the formation of buboes and sometimes infection of the lungs
>Sidious from insidious - proceeding in a gradual, subtle way, but with harmful effects
> Maul from maul - wound by scratching and tearing.
>Tyranus from tyrannus - (Latin) a cruel and oppressive ruler.
>Vader from invader, and coincidentally happens to be the dutch word for 'father'.
Revan?
Ayden Russell
The point of him is that he found a way to use both the light and dark side of the Force
You're in the wrong place. You're allowed to have your opinion, but you're in the wrong place. Just leave if that's what you want people to talk with you about.
Adam Brooks
> happens to be the dutch word for 'father'.
Well, it is a Germanic language very close to the source of English.
Aaron Carter
Vader being father is a coincidence. Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader weren't intended to be the same being until a few drafts into ESB.
Noah Roberts
He's a Jedi who ignored the wishes of the council and led some of the other Jedi into the Mandalorian Wars and disappeared for a while, where he and Malak fell to the dark side. They because Sith Lords who then returned to the galaxy and began conquesting it. Malak turned on Revan and tried to kill him, instead the Jedi saved him and used the Force to block his memories and create a new identity for him.
Then the events of KotOR happen.
He's only revered because people liked playing as him and because of the twist that "you were Revan the whole time!!!!"
SWTOR then took Revan, beat him to death, mutilated his corpse, sewed it back together, dressed it up, and zombified it.
Revanchist
Its a good thing one of the guys you replied to said it was a coincidence then, right?
Jayden Garcia
>Vader being father is a coincidence
I.. said that.
>and coincidentally happens to be the dutch word for 'father'.
Kayden Mitchell
So Revan isn't particularly important in the grand scheme of things in the way Bane is?
Caleb Jackson
Muh bad. Not enough sleep last night as my roommates tried to party until 4...
Christian Hughes
I think he's probably worthy of having a footnote in a history book, but no he isn't anywhere near as important as Bane, who himself is also kind of a footnote but he at least started something that culminated in Sidious and the Empire.
Austin Nelson
Correct. Unless they have a reason to reference the conflict between the Jedi and Mandalorians and decide to make Revan involved in that in some way, he's just not important.
Samuel Harris
>fell to the dark side >fell
Jaxson Howard
Revenent.

Zachary Roberts
One of the many conflicts between Jedi and Mandalorians, it should be said. We know the last conflict between them left the Jedi Temple a burning wreck, but that was only 1000 years before the films. Meanwhile they seem to be mostly keeping the timeline roughly the same, with the Sith spawning from the Jedi after the Hundred Years of Darkness about 7000 years before the films.
Christian Smith
Did anyone upload a mega of that prequel documentary?
You know that stuff was hinted at in kotor 1 right?
Brayden Jenkins
Where does all this talk about Qui-Gon being a grey Jedi and being disillusioned with the Council come from? He never struck me as rebellious, he always seemed to be pure Jedi to me.

Ryan Martin
That's the problem.
It was good. Not great. And certainly not the best.
Gabriel Powell
In legends bane got the inspiration of rule of two from revan.
Daniel Sanchez
Because there's two different kinds of grey Jedi.
There's the kind like him and Jolee - thoroughly good people who just happen to disagree with the Jedi Council on matters.
Then there's the edgy "I can use the dark side and the light side no consequence" type of gray Jedi.
Charles Smith
If you could change something about Star Wars what would it be?
For me it would have to be the ages of Anakin and Obi-Wan when they have their fight. Maybe have the Clone Wars be a 10 year war or longer in order for Obi-Wan to be a middle aged man by the time Anakin turns to the darkside, so it makes sense that he would look like an 80 year old man in the OT... Also Anakin would need to be played by an older actor which might improve his character a bit.
Colton Wood
Nah, not anywhere strong as the originals in building mythos. But I also don't feel as though its unwatchable after one sitting.
Jack Brown

I heard about the comic about Yoda. I think it's cool that it'll reveal more about Yoda's past and definitely add more to this mysterious character but let's be honest, Yoda is not anyones favorite Star Wars character, aside from kids whose favorite color is green and Yoda is their favorite character because he's green. That used to be me, but as I've matured, I've learned to choose my favorite SW characters based on more sophisticated criteria. Boba Fett is my current favorite because his armor is sweet
Zachary Barnes

This is the first I'm hearing about it. Is it new canon? Links?
Jordan Jones
I would make Padme a Jedi herself.
Sure it might not be well received by some fans to have so many characters as Jedi in the films but I think it would work out better. Padme could join Anakin and Obi Wan in their adventures and allow for a more natural romance to develop between Ani and her, and their conflict would make more sense as they would truly need to hide their marriage and pregnancy from the Jedi order instead of Padme being a senator who could get with any guy she wanted, eventually Padme offers to leave the Jedi order and have a family with Anakin but things go bad.
It would also add more to the idea of how powerful Luke's lineage is in the Force since he and Leia come from two Jedi.
Levi Cooper
>It would also add more to the idea of how powerful Luke's lineage is in the Force since he and Leia come from two Jedi.
Anakin is basically the offspring of the Force itself so that explains why the Force is so strong with them.
Zachary Bell
>allow for a more natural romance >natural romance But that defeats the point
Joshua Nguyen
Well the result of an experiment in the force by a Sith Master in search for Immortality.
It's not a full comic, just an interlude in the main Star Wars comic, like what we've been getting with the Obi-Wan flashbacks.

That's just a legend the holocrons speak of

Benjamin Morales

Austin Rogers
Originally yes. The thing is that JJ and the nucrew are KOTOR fans and keep throwing references to shit Revan did into the new Canon, even if they won't mention the main man himself.
Revan was the one who committed the scourge of Malachor. Both Ezra and Kylo Ren had to go to that site beforehand and both walked out with crazy force artifacts that turned them to the dark side(Ezra took the Holocron, Kylo built his light saber).
Bane may have established the rule of two, but basically everything else about the sith that's actually relevant during the galactic civil war was either Revan or one of his contemporaries.
Ryan Wood
>JJ >KOTOR fan
JJ hates everything that isn't the OT
Kayden Allen
>Revan was the one who committed the scourge of Malachor. Both Ezra and Kylo Ren had to go to that site beforehand and both walked out with crazy force artifacts that turned them to the dark side(Ezra took the Holocron, Kylo built his light saber). That seems only tangentially relevant. That's like saying BoShek is hugely important because he was the one who told Ben to talk to Chewie about getting a flight off Tatooine.
Carter Edwards
JJ has nothing to do with the new canon beyond what's in TFA. Even the TFA visual dictionary's various references are Pablo's doing.
James Cook
I'd disagree.
The problem with Anakin and Padme's relationship isn't that they don't have excuses to be together. They're still both essentially civil servants who work out of buildings essentially down the block from each other. There's not really anything you'd gain by giving Padme a lightsaber in a meaningful sense.
The problem with Anakin and Padme's relationship is that they didn't have enough time on the screen and chemistry between actors. Their romance is basically written as being this thing of forbidden passion and tension but their line delivery is flat as shit and there's no physicality to it.
Carter Brown
>it's 2016 and there are still people that think Abrams is in charge of the entire franchise
Samuel Stewart
>Well the result of an experiment in the force by a Sith Master in search for Immortality.
Nope. In canon Anakin is straight up Christ.
Chase Gray
I highly doubt it was JJ's doing, but I can definitely see parallels between Kylo and Rey and Revan and Bastila Shan. Who knows who's ultimately responsible for that though.
Isaac Williams
>The problem with Anakin and Padme's relationship is that they didn't have enough time on the screen and chemistry between actors.

Anakin is basically /r9k/ begging Stacy (Padme) for sex and whining about how hard his life is but he's attractive enough that he actually gets with the girl. Dude is a complete narcisstic man hold in the PT and it's astounding that Padme still gets with him even after he goes >Some of you are ok don't come to Tatooine tomorrow On the Sand People.

Only in the most superficial sense. Kyle isn't a badass inspirational leader of men, he's a spergy school shooter with too much power, who's desperate to be taken seriously. Rey is a special snowflake like Bastilla was though.

Luceno says he talked to Lucas a few times, but I've never seen anything to say that most of the book was his idea. The only thing I can remember being conclusively a Lucas idea was Plagueis being a Muun.

Colton Sanchez
They probably do have a chance, but it'll be a long wait I think. You guys need to stop assuming every little mention of KOTOR means Revan is coming back right this minute, though.

She can't lose. She's a woman. A woman always has to win, even if she loses. Otherwise, you're a racist misogynist.
That's how the new generation of Star Wars fans will interpret the fight, and in the end that's the only opinion that matters; not the opinions of men with facts and statistics and other stuff that they actually give a shit about this franchise.

Remember this is still the first entry in the trilogy.
In Luke's first go he could barely deflect blaster shots some of the time and just had to make one shot with the force. Everything else was abilities the whole rest of the film had to justify. When he fought Vader and won as handily as Rey beat Kylo it was already the back half of the last movie.
In Anakin's first try he was a pod racer, but he'd never even finished a race before the film began. Other than that there's not much he did that couldn't be considered luck. He couldn't fight Dooku and win even with Obi-Wan's help until again the third movie, and he paid the price and lost an arm for trying too fast.
Rey can already outfly two TIE fighters(something Luke and Anakin never did) in a ship that she'd never flown before operating without a copilot. That ship having slapdash repairs and having spent probably months under a tarp, being literally as old as the clone wars, and about six times as big as the TIE fighters. She did a mind trick after about thirty seconds effort flawlessly, with more direction to it than anything Luke or Obi Wan ever did. She then beat a man five years older than her who'd been doing this his whole life despite never having held the lightsaber before.
There's literally no point to them ever having a rematch without Kylo Ren having some kind of plot device power up. She beat him. You can try to say his "training wasn't complete" despite the fact that he's a thirty year old man, but Rey will be training for the same amount of time he his and she'll be training under the guy that fed Vader his own hand and then spent thirty years advancing since then.
Gavin Harris
The original dish broke off during the battle of Endor. Han probably made Lando replace it.
Hudson Gray
TFA suffers from powercreep. See Poe.
Jackson Garcia
Poe is just a nonsensical character from the get-go. I mean why is he in charge and not say, Nien Nunb? I mean Nunb was right there with Lando blowing up Death Star II and would obviously have been flying at least until Jaku. Even the other guys in the squadrons come off as more experienced than him in the comics but he's supposed to be leading this shit show of an air force?
Oscar Isaacs has some good charisma so I can excuse it when he's onscreen, but a lot of Poe's character is also very much "Poe is the best pilot ever" without any of the justification the other pilots got in the OT, PT, or old EU.
But a lot of that is mainly because Disney just plain does not give a fuck about space battles. They're basically in there for nostalgia's sake and nothing else.
Ian Hernandez
I saw the battle station dlc for battlefront. It's damn tempting for the dogfight and trench part even if the rest might be garbage.
Jackson Smith
because there's enough OT characters and the normies don't give a shit about the aliens who don't say "It's a trap", "Yubnub", "Utinie", or whateverthefuck Jabba says.
Liam Stewart
You're assuming if ANH was made today, the characters wouldn't be kicked up a notch? Even before TFA, if it was made during the Prequel timeframe? You think Lucas would have made Vader and Obi-Wan swing their swords like tired old men?
Charles Richardson
>rematch
I've seen people joss the theory that he was injured during their skirmish, and that's why he couldn't fight at his full potential. Perhaps things would be different when he fights at prime condition and without orders to take her alive.
I mean, we've seen him paralyze someone with the force, and we've seen him drag someone into his grip. Granted, this is just mentioning what he could do; it's not a guarantee that he'd be able to pull it off in an actual fight.
Strange. I was the one who first pushed Rey's awesomeness, and now I'm advocating for Kylo. Guess I just want to do some proper theorizing rather than blatant baiting.
Ian Young
>man five years I thought Rey was 19
Liam Ward
Just like the Prequels, we have a different group of people who are complaining about the wrong things. At this points, no matter what you like in Star Wars, some other fan is gonna hate it. Maybe they should leave.
Asher Morales
We aren't talking about Vader and Obi Wan. We're talking about a Luke Skywalker clone who can do more than actual Luke or even Anakin ever did.
He was beating Rey until she just vaguely used the force.
No matter how you slice it that means that Rey just has to be better at the force than him. Because if he could beat her before then he was clearly still the better swordsman. But having a ten second pep talk from Maz a couple of days ago apparently gave her everything she needed to instantly get better to wrap the movie up.
Jayden Foster
>dodging the fact that Lucas would have made Luke like Rey due to the way things are these days
k, guess you'll complain when old Luke is 100 times better than Yoda too then
Adrian Hall
It could be worse, I suppose. She could've instantly wrapped up the sequel trilogy with just one movie.
Well, Yoda is dead.
Eli Myers
>Maybe they should leave.
No. Fuck you. I've been here long enough to go through this cycle of bullshit and this is very much a different and WORSE set of problems. The prequels were miscast and the acting was wooden, but if nothing else there was a concept under there that was workable. Junkrat from the desert becomes a jedi knight. Has a forbidden romance with a queen. Winds up destroying everything he had to try to save it. Some of the designs didn't work, some of the actors needed to be recast, the script needed some rewrites badly, but the underlying concept was there.
Force Awakens is just broken at the conceptual level. Characters do things without their character traits only being vaguely established at best. Established ideas of how things are "supposed" to work are thrown out the window, even if in every other canon source they still work that way, for the sake of cramming as much into it as possible. Characters the film actually tries to establish as intimidating like Phasma go down in a pathetic way and it gets topped off with a cheap reference joke. Even by the bare bones archetype based way Star Wars tends to be written there's a bunch of stuff that plain doesn't work the way it was meant to.
Julian Perry
That's not an argument, that's an excuse. You're saying that because in a hypothetical timeline a filmmaker that's mocked for going too excessive went even more excessive, the film we have now is a good film because it pushes it farther than when Lucas ACTUALLY pushed it too far.
Jacob Reyes
The prequels had substance, but trash character direction. It didn't sell it's bullshit like the OT.
TFA sold everything, but there was really nothing of substance to sell. Which is why stuff like Bloodline is setting up that substance, like how TCW had to salvage the characters from the prequels.
All I see are being getting mad that charisma and nostalgia always works better than substance. The OT was a rarity for movies.
Luis Ortiz
My take was essentially the same for Kylo. He was injured, and emotionally compromised from just having killed his dad, an act he wasn't 100% committed to.
Originally, I also believed Rey was Luke's daughter, and her mary-sue-ness was explainable by her having all of Anakin and Luke's talent, without any of their impatience or anger issues. Of course the revelation that she was abandoned on Jakku well BEFORE Order 66 II: Electric Boogaloo suggests that isn't the case. I refuse to believe in those "every generation gets a chosen one" rumors, so for now the only theory that supports my theory is that she's Sheev's granddaughter, and even that theory has its problems.
Noah Bailey
We need to wait for the actual trilogy to be over before we judge how well it sold. Disney made a lot of money on TFA but that doesn't mean the next two will sell well. The official comics aren't doing too well and they had to pump an insane amount of ad money in to get what they got.
Having a good initial run is no proof of a good sequel run. Tim Burton's Alice sequel sold like shit and the first movie made Disney a billion dollars. The first Divergent movie made money proportionately, but the last on is having to go direct to tv because it couldn't hold onto it's audience.
The bottom on big budget young adult fantasy action flicks is very much falling out, and you can't expect infinite golden eggs out of this goose.
Adrian Kelly
well apparently Rey is one of the ideas that made it through from Lucas's treatment
I'll laugh my ass off if he did literally create her like this
Bentley Nelson
Why'd you move the goalpost over to money?
Cooper Jones
They're going to fuck up Thrawn so bad by having him job horribly to Erza at every chance, do nothing useful, and resort to a cheesy kung-fu fight when they meet him in person. Because Disney wants to hammer home the message that Snoke is just THAT amazing.
I'm capping this post so I can tell you all 'I told you so' in a few months.
Isaiah Harris
...
Ian Wilson
Because I'm an autistic dumbass I actually took the audio from Rey's flashback bit and dumped it into adobe audition. I'm hardly the first person to do this but there are actually two BARELY audible quotes that sound like a storm trooper voice talking.
The first is something about a "baby jedi" and then the second has a stormtrooper go "we are the third". I have no idea what the fuck this is supposed to MEAN but you can sort of make them out in between kid Rey screaming and the ship blasting off at the end. But they're literally the two quietest sounds in the segment and play next to two loud ones so I could be wrong.
A few people also hear "baby jedi" but some people think that it's a flashback to Palpatine in the prequels talking about "all the jedi", but I can quite clearly hear the b sound in the audio.
Going by that, since it's actually audio that happens during a direct flashback, I'd almost guess Rey was kidnapped like Finn, but cut loose for some reason. They'd have had to know that she could use the force, since "baby jedi" is basically what force sensitive kids are called by space normies(you can see Thrawn use the same term in the EU early on). Which just raises the question of why Snoke wouldn't want a kid who can use the force, but it would imply that he knew where Rey was.
Grayson Ross
Because you have no way to actually measure sentiment otherwise. You can say "people like this" but there's no way to back it up outside maybe RT scores. But people won't rate what they won't see.
Colton Martin
I think the problem is that there is a sudden shift from Kylo winning to Rey winning. Kylo dominates the Finn fight and even showboats a little, there isn't any real evidence that he's compromised at all. I think they should have shown Kylo steadily weakening through both fights or established Rey as a better fighter.
Hudson Green
Normies do care about them. It's the only reason they were in TFA in the first place despite not doing jack shit.
Leo Jackson
That shit wasn't there for them. The film was there for them. They were there for us, as extras for us to enjoy.
Logan Reed
That implies anyone involved cared what we wanted.
Chase Morgan
Then why was Nien Nunb plastered all over one of the TV commercials? He was clearly expected to be a recognizable character.
Even in interviews John Boyega said that having him and Ackbar there in the scenes helped sell it as being a "real" star wars film.
Kevin Howard
Oh fuck off with that. Fuck right off with that cynical, cunty bullshit. "WAAAH they made more Star Wars, they hate the faaaaans!" Are you fucking stupid?
No, I AM, because I'm arguing on the internet and I know I'm doing it and still posting anyways. FUCK.
To sell it to the hardcore fans who would bitch about them not being in the movie and saying "not muh star wars". You think Disney won't just throw money to make more good word of mouth? They're Disney, they have money to burn, and Boyega's hardly going to bad-talk the film.
John Hall
>No, I AM, because I'm arguing on the internet and I know I'm doing it and still posting anyways. FUCK. Okay then.
Logan Bailey
>WAAAH they made more Star Wars, they hate the faaaaans!
If they didn't they wouldn't have abruptly cut literally every Star Wars project that was going on and basically killed anything existing fans were following.
Dawn of the Jedi was cool as fuck. But now that comic ends on a cliffhanger because Disney shitcanned it right as the last couple of issues were coming out. 1313 looked cool but it's never going to see the light of day despite clearly being at least half done and in development for years at that point. TCW was in the middle of making another season but that obviously didn't happen. Force Unleashed 2 ended on a giant ass cliffhanger and Force Unleashed 3 can never resolve it now.
They didn't "make more star wars", they slit the birds throat to take all the eggs out at once.
Julian Barnes
I think it more came down to Rey having more focus and determination at that moment, while Kylo was falling apart.
Cameron Baker

Luke Martinez
You miss the part where Kylo took a grenade to the dick?
Kayden Miller
I so want her to be in that Sith Holocron, but it'll probably be FemRevan or some random Sith.
That's irrelevant. He was winning decisively against someone who had one more fights worth of experience and was soundly beating Rey until she used the force to just magically get better in a way no jedi ever did before.
John Jones
You can't split a character into seasons like that. Besides, Ahsoka>Asuka>Rei>Rey

Except it's a theme that's been done in many media and myth, often with a "good" and "bad" element that must be reunited back into a whole. The difference between accepting emotions accepting yourself and rejecting emotions rejecting part of yourself. Being in control involves reconciliation. Doing it like that visually WAS a mistake, a small heresy against collective human myth.
Ian Barnes
I could be deliberate that Yoda was making a mistake. It could symbolize how the Jedi rather than making peace with their dark side and keeping it in balance they reject it and by extension reject a part of themselves which is why the Jedi lost their way. Guys like Anakin see the needless internal strife this creates but without proper guidance they in turn become controlled by those emotions, hence in a very Zen way, by rejecting the dark, darkness is reborn from within.
Kayden Barnes
Is that the only time it's happened? Seems like you could easily pass it off as a common "hit something and it explodes" thing you usually see in action movies. Hell, Star Wars does it often enough.
Joshua Reyes
That's the only time we've seen the effects of a bowcaster shot in the OT. Every other time it was just Chewie using stolen blasters.
Your second point has merit, but keep in mind that those same speeder bikes tanked hits from Leia's pistol and even their own cannons in other scenes.
Michael Garcia
GL can't write romance to save his life, the only way to save it is do what Ford did and push back by doing your own lines and generally just telling GL to fuck himself.
Asher Hernandez
>speeder bikes tanked hits from Leia's pistol Eh, she doesn't need to hit it that much to explode. Now that I think about it I honestly can't remember Chewie ever using the bowcaster aside from that, though.
Even so, it doesn't explain why Han acts like he's never seen it in action before.

>Even so, it doesn't explain why Han acts like he's never seen it in action before. It is weird indeed, especially considering that Han was also seen using it in an earlier scene from the very same movie, when fighting those thugs.
Christopher Peterson
Means I don't need a corporate pope to decide for me what is and isn't star wars canon. Fans communing directly with Star Wars without anyone put above us to intermediate between us and Star Wars. The very idea that something like Star Wars can be owned is as heretical and blasphemous as the idea that the rights to Christian Canon could simply be bought and sold. Just as a Christian Protestant holds themselves to be part of the true church, I hold myself to belong to the true fandom, one that respects the fact that there are established truths about Star Wars that can't be rewritten no matter what GL or Disney or any other entity says.
Lincoln Garcia
I don't think you actually get how canon works.
John Ross
So you're insane, got it

All canon means is that official works have to follow certain continuity guidelines. It's never been about telling you what to like or what you personally have to accept as "real." You're acting all rebellious about something that isn't even happening.
David Murphy

Noah White
Uhh, creators should have complete control over their works, yeah. We can still freely interpret things differently, and the creators at Lucasfilm have expressed that. But things can also be explicitly canon of not-canon for the sake of continuity, and keeping things thematically in check.
The fact that you mentioned George at the end there makes me think you're also one of the people overly bitter about the Special Editions too.
Charles Hernandez
It's not about what I like, it's about what is counted as real Star Wars. It's myth, myth I happen to take very seriously which means the facts concerning it matter to me. Like how others take facts about the bible very seriously, for example Jews and Christians hold that Isaac was the son Abraham was told to sacrifice (before interceding) and his inheritor, while Muslims changed this and said Ishmael was the son, Muslims certainly wouldn't mind it if they could get Christians to rewrite their bibles and put in Ishmael, but that wouldn't be true Christianity, to Christians that is an Islamic heresy. So too are changes made to the original conception of Star Wars, they are part of a heretical new IP nustarwars that is different than the original Star Wars that is still celebrated by it's original fans. You can be fans of both but to say the nustarwars IS Star Wars is a lie, in Star Wars Greedo never fired his gun, Greedo firing his gun is heresy to fans of Star Wars but canon to fans of nustarwars. Like I said, when I say I take Star Wars seriously, I mean it.

Juan Martin
He's been like that for years, way before he entered the story group.
Austin Phillips
He wouldn't be in charge of the decision beyond whether or not the changes in the 2011 version are considered canon. But he would surely be in the know about whether or not it was happening, because he is a higher-up at Lucasfilm. And he seems to believe that it's not happening.
And again, they made a big deal about the digital release last year, and it was the 2011 versions, so he seems to be credible.
On twitter, he often has very snarky and sarcastic responses to (usually) silly questions. To be fair though, don't we all? In his interviews however, he does seem like a very nice person.

The internet is the only place you will ever be able to get unaltered Star Wars in acceptable quality. There's a thread here if you're interested.

Given the special editions, the prequels, many of the books, and general decision making, I've come to the conclusion that Lucas and Lucasfilm hate Star Wars and its fans.
Jacob Cruz
Upload the audio?
Kevin Thompson
Yeah I am sure all of the actors, writers, artists, musicians, ect, spent all of that time, effort, and money as one big collaborative ruse on the fans.
And the majority of the fans who ended up liking all of those things just didn't understand that Lucasfilm was really trying to upset them.
Sarcasm aside, why the fuck are you in a Star Wars thread if you are going to just talk shit about 99% of the franchise, and everyone who makes Star Wars? And no doubt the fans who enjoy it too
James Moore
I don't get it. The tweaks to the will 1997, 2004, and 2011 versions are all pretty minor. Some of the decisions make sense, others not as much. But people act like the unaltered theatrical releases were fundamentaly MUCH better movies. Even if, for the sake of argument, we accepted that all the changes sucked, the canon versions would still be only minisculely less good than the originals.
Chase Cox
Because people want to see the original films they fell in love with, how is that hard to understand?
Ian Murphy
The changes dont affect the movie in any way. Aside from a single added scene in ANH, the movies are almost identical aside from graphical touch-ups.
The most noticeable changes are actually the undeniably good ones (Victory Celebration, Boba's voice, Sheev in ESB not looking like an anorexic Vietnamese war veteran with down syndrome)
People who claim that the movie's "aren't the ones we fell in love with" are deluded. I have NEVER felt like I wasn't watching Star Wars when watching any version of the OT.
Caleb James
> Aftermath Audiobook > 1:30 hours in > Wedge Antilles thinks about a landing he did during a mission for the rebel alliance on behalf of Fulcrum > Wedge joins the alliance in season 3 of Rebels, after Ahsokas "death"
Ahsoka is and always was alive.
Gavin Jenkins
We've discussed this before. The trailer shows a hologram transmission that used Ahsoka's markings, and this was related to the Wedge episode.
This means, more likely than not, they use the name "Fulcrum" and Ahsoka's markings, when making undercover transmissions, in tribute of her.
As far as the Rebellion know though, she is in fact dead.
Luis Cox
Bad directing.
Nicholas Gray
There is a word that comes to mind, entryist.
Easton Lewis
In case I didn't explain clear enough, this means that Ahsoka didn't recruit Wegde, but rather Hera using Ahsoka's undercover title did.
It's interesting to think about how far ahead the Storygroup planned this little detail. I bet Wendig didn't even know Ahsoka was going to "die" either. I remember one of the book writers said the LSG would ask them to include little details that they didn't even know meant, because they were for the future. So the LSG probably told Wendig to add the line about Fulcrum recruiting Wedge because they were planning to do a Rebels episode about it. This may have even happened before Wendig knew who Fulcrum initially was, let alone the idea that Ahsoka could die and the title would be used by another person.
Also makes me wonder what other little futureproofs are in the books right now...
Ayden Hernandez
To the causal observer like yourself yes. To the historian however it's a world of difference.

>The most noticeable changes are actually the undeniably good ones A lot of things are noticeably different in the newer versions, how "undeniably good" they are is up to whomever is watching them.
But that doesn't change the fact that they're not the same movie, it's a different experience, there's a lot of different shots, cut things added, original things cut, sounds changed and so on. For people that watched the movies over and over again these things can become very noticeable to just being "something isn't how I remember". But some people want things how they remember them, because it reminds them of those times.
Someone who wants an original Ms. Pacman game cabinet isn't deluded because they don't want to just play the game on an XBox, they're looking for that original experience of playing the game. The people that want original cuts of the movies are simply looking for the same thing. That original experience, a reminder of when they first saw these movies and became absorbed into the world. There's nothing wrong with that.

Yeah, the more i read his twitter, the more I started to dislike him. Especially when he retweets SJW crap and cringy feminist bloggers that seem to have joined Lucasfilm after the buyout.
I would say Lucasfilm isn't what it used to be, the only person there I have faith in is Filoni because he is proto-George. The rest all seem like young hipster staff with a PC agenda.
Lucasfilm may slowly but surely go the way of Marvel Comics that's suffered the same issue. I blame KK, she knows literally jack about SW compared to GL or Filoni...
Oliver Davis
In SWTOR if you beat the Revam Reborn Operation in Hardmode you'd get the title "___ the Revanchist"
One of the coolest titles in the game IMO
Christopher Parker
JJM confirmed Revanchist was his comic original idea on his website. He has a lot of behind the scenes shit for most of the original run there.
Jayden White
Zayne got a station named after him too, the main Republic hub if I recall correctly, which was a nice touch.
I've read them all, at least twice, but I couldn't recall that note off the top of my head. Been meaning to give the series and his notes another read through soon.
In any case, I always felt Revan and Revanchism was a very lucky break JJM was smart enough to capitalize on. Revanchism is not so much capitalized on in the games themselves, but it was clearly something that could be very easily pulled out of them and worked well with the setting and character.
Xavier Bailey
Yeah they made quite a few nods to the comic. Most characters have armor sets (Zayne, Jarael, Rohlan, Lucien), there's a ton of references on Taris like a location called Draay Outpost, etc.
Adds some nice flavor
Nicholas Adams
It's one thing to have a nostalgic love for the original versions, but theatrical-purists tend to regard the Special Editions as bad movies, but they're just not different enough for that to be the case.
Ryder Campbell
the only argument I've heard about the special editions is that their changes were needless and add nothing to the movies, which I think is true. They didn't rape the movies, they just made the movies a tiny bit worse for me to watch by adding in extra fluff.

I want more non-humanoid ayy lmaos to be important characters, to break up the casts sometime. Sometimes I think a lot of character designs for aliens would be more interesting if they didn't have to be basically weird looking humans, but nucanon doesn't seem to be moving away from that.
Does anyone share this feeling?
Dominic Garcia
I like my freaky aliens, but Star Wars has never really been the place for them. They've done a few ones, but its been more miss than hit. Mostly just poor authors and dumb ideas, but still.
Evan Murphy
Lando
The thought does sound intriguing, but it would be difficult to pull off depending on how well the audience can relate to something non-human. Sadly, there has to be something of value (fanservice, comic relief) to make these aliens noteworthy to the s.o.b.'s...I mean, the audience.
Brayden Kelly
Those are rubbish. It's all about the 32mm and 16mm film reel rips. That's the only way to watch Star Wars in highish quality.

29, I grew up watching the original movies on tape, I hadn't seen the movies in theaters until 97, but by then I'd already seen all three dozens of times over. Never spent money on a Laserdisc, because they were stupid fucking expensive at the time, and they were pretty quickly replaced with CDs
Aaron Lewis
To whoever has compiled the audiobooks for the MEGA, can I formally request the Legacy of the Force books? I'm searching everywhere with no results, and that person seems to be pretty good at it.
Thanks in advance
Jaxson Cook
That person gets them from other people that post them online (or was it just one person on one forum?) and just puts them in the MEGA for convenience. If you can't find them, then it's doubtful someone else will.
Aaron Jones
bummer
Wyatt Jackson
I point you to Vader saving Luke from Palpatine. The scene was tense, Vader turmoil expressed by body language and up until he acted you wasn't sure what was going to happen next the first time you saw it. It was a moment where restraint was for the better.
In the new version you now have him not only saying no, but him saying it again in the same hammy as fuck way that ruined his suiting scene in ROTS. It kills the impact of that moment, and now brings up how in the hell palp didn't hear him and see the betrayal coming.
I'd gotten used to most of the changes before but that one really felt unnecessary.
Brandon Diaz
>Disney just plain does not give a fuck about space battles I hope Rian changes this. I want some sick ship boarding action.

In RotS it's "Noooooooo!!!!"
In RotJ it's "No... No!"
Jacob Hernandez
appreciate it, m8
Isaac Young
I get stuff from several sources. The soundtracks are usually from ffshrine. The audiobooks and the Legends stuff is from a Star Wars thread on Kaskus, a forum where some scanners and rippers (Kileko, b0bafett, etc) hang out. The Rebels Season 2 episodes I got from Kametsu.
I just look in every corner I can.
Any time
Lincoln Morris
Listen again. The no is stretched out the same way.
I know it's a bit early to tell, but is the Bendu a race, or is he just one entity? If the latter, does that mean he's been around since the beginning of time?
Juan Cooper
Its clearly different from the single RotS one. Its two "No"s with the second one echoing for a couple seconds
Seems to be a single being. We dont know for sure at the moment
Mason Campbell
Wouldn't surprise me if he's some ancient race that died off a long time ago, he's probably the last.
Jose Richardson
Why the giant Kyber Crystal was green.
Connor Davis
You really should start reading about him yourself instead of getting second hand comments. It'll make you a biased asshole if you keep clinging to other peoples opinions.
Ryan Bailey
I know it's two no's. I'm saying that having him say 'No' at all is as hammy as it was in suit scene, especially with the echo to stretch it out. Scene felt better with Vader silent in my opinion, and I don't see any reason to add him saying no.
Ryder Torres
Really didn't change the scene in my opinion. Still an emotional moment with Vader silent or not.
Alexander Gonzalez
>I'm saying that having him say 'No' at all is as hammy as it was in suit scene, especially with the echo to stretch it out.
I disagree. It doesn't sound exaggerated at all.
>Scene felt better with Vader silent in my opinion, and I don't see any reason to add him saying no.
That was Anakin saying it, not Vader. In thst moment, Anakin was back. Anakin liked to verbally express his thoughts, feelings, and emotions. Makes perfect sense.
Christian Sullivan
I guess we'll just agree to disagree then and move on.
Bentley Carter
...
Ryan Foster
From the thumbnail, I thought it was Kit Harington
Lincoln Gonzalez
>That was Anakin saying it, not Vader. That's an interesting way of looking at it for sure. Still I prefer it silent, especially the way the score hits that high note right as he lunges and the no kinda messes with it. It flowed better in my opinion.
Landon Bell
That's a cop out, the concept art showed it green and it was used for the Death Star laser which was also green.
Gotcha Pablo...
Carter Walker
And suddenly I'm imagining a future update to that scene which has Hayden's voice in that scene. Possibly turning that first 'no' into a mental voice.
Then go follow him on Twitter yourself, or check his tweets on occasion. Honestly the people who complain about Pablo's responses ignore the context of his conversations. The man answers a bulk of Star Wars questions every day willingly, and most of them are stupid questions tweeted by idiots who think they have something to prove to try and lead him into arguments, or ridiculous questions about shipping. He has never insulted anyone, just responds with bants.
But he answers questions on Twitter because he genuinely wants to give fans a response to their questions about the universe, and their questions do get answered. If social media wasn't inherently such a shitshow or pissing contest, you'd get a less witty, but equally has helpful Hidalgo.
There are many people who believe that the theatrical cut is the only way to view the OT, and anything else is heresy of the utmost degree. A generation that grows up without the same experience is the result of the hateful spite of Lucasfilm.
B-but Legacy of the Force is awful.
Carson Jones
I'll get around to it in a bit. The only problem is the audio doesn't actually make SENSE when taken out of context because it's a one minute sequence and you're isolating a couple of segments three segments long.
Jordan Nelson
There's a reimagining of that scene with flashbacks from the prequels that comes close.
He never said that though. Pretty sure all Adam Driver said was that Ep 8 wont be as lighthearted as TFA, and a bit weird.
John Gutierrez
Fuck me. If Rian Johnson can't make an original film, Terrovow has 0 change.
Charles Watson
Treverrow is also complete shit. What a lot of /swco/ felt about TFA is what I felt about Jurassic World, it was like a bad TV movie trying to recycle all the hits of better films.
This is his exact quote.
>Driver said: "It’s great. It’s similar to how The Empire Strikes Back has a different tone. For that, people always go “oooh, it’s dark” but I don’t know that it necessarily is. It’s just different in tone in a way that I think is great and necessary but also very clear. He trusts [that] his audience is ready for nuance and ambiguity. He’s not dumbing anything down for someone and that’s really fun to play."
Oliver Wood
Oh yeah, even better than I remembered.
So that picture with the headline is just crappy clickb8.
Gabriel Bell

Samuel Ortiz
>They are, just not for a Jurassic Park movie. I actually think they could work really good in a separate film. Heh, probably
Lucas Morris
Just because the alternate was awful doesn't excuse World from being essentially a SyFy movie with a bigger budget.
Chase King
It wasn't though.
William Miller
Yeah, if our options were some bizarre dinohybrids movie and a cheap remake of the original that had no substance (which is saying something since the original movie took out a lot of the substance of the book), I'd rather they just not make another one at all.
Thomas Moore
It was. You could rename is SYFY PRESENTS: RAPTORSAURUS REX and it wouldn't be out of place on there... except for the higher budget. The entire plot is just "we made a super-scary dinosaur to increase park attendance but also for secret military use oh no it got loose." That's it.
Austin Martinez
>The entire plot is just "we made a super-scary dinosaur to increase park attendance but also for secret military use oh no it got loose." That's it.
And it was cool.
Ayden Harris
I just realized how soon this is coming out.
Will you be getting it?
Wyatt Barnes
I do, but the fact that it's a young adult novel somewhat scares me. Please please please, let there be no romance plot. Ahsoka just went through two disposable boyfriends
Cameron Anderson
given the authors other works, no.
Brandon Rogers
World was the only good sequel to the original movie in my opinion
Camden Phillips
I really liked the third movie.
Noah Taylor
I thought Lost World had some merits, but it wasn't very good. 3 was just dumb and Lost World had fun moments but it requires everyone involved to be a complete idiot for it to work.
Kayden Hall
I like the Lost World, but I just hate Jurassic Park 3. The pterosaur sequence is good though, but goddamn it's a fucking mess otherwise.
Brody Williams
/swco/ - Jurassic Park
Xavier King
I think to me the problem was that it required everyone to completely forget the fundamental lesson of the first movie, that this was something that could not be controlled and the entire concept was doomed to failure because despite all attempts to control every variable, life finds a way.
World kind of forgets that altogether, everyone is working fine, the park is under control, they've apparently solved all of the problems... but then they go and do something stupid like make a super-mega double-plus wicked rad dinosaur that's impossible to kill. And the reasoning for this? Henry Wu became an asshole for some reason and was secretly planning to sell this thing to the military, even though drones already do the job it was made for much more efficiently.
The only part of the movie that really works and strikes any kind of chord with the original movie's themes is Grady's raptors. He stresses repeatedly that the best you can do is try to have a relationship of mutual respect and gain their cooperation, but the raptors are never going to be fully obedient and you're never going to be able to control them. This should've been a contrast to the Indominus Rex, but apparently its unstoppable, uncontrollable nature was actually intentional because "sell it to the military!" which again is an idiotic idea.
Jason Wright
>Ashley is reading the audiobook Fuck yeah I am
Owen Mitchell
If by getting it you mean downloading it, then yes.
Dylan Stewart
They designed the Indominus Rex because people were getting bored of the dinosaurs they had. Not to sell to the military.
Dominic Scott
Except it would, because the film doesn't really work like most Syfy films do.
If it was a SyFy film, there would be no park ot military subplot it would just be about a mutated dinosaur cooked up in a secret US lab
Leo Walker
This. The idea of selling dinosaurs to the military was just one guy that wanted to weaponize the Velociraptors.
The military subplot would definitely be there, it's actually a staple of SyFy movies to involve them in some form (usually as fodder for whatever monster they have). You're right about the park, but in the grand scheme of things the park was just a backdrop.
Carson Brooks
Wu didn't intend to sell the hybrid originally, but Hoskins has him evacuated and from their discussion it sounds like Wu is open to the idea of making something similar for them.
Honestly I think this is worse, since if Wu had been planning on selling the IMPERIUS REX! to the military from the start, it almost makes sense. Instead he made his big cool dinosaur needlessly indestructible for absolutely no reason. Like what situation would it be in where it needed to be bulletproof? Were they going to shoot it in front of guests to wow them?

What kind of bugged me is that Lost World has Hammond taking responsibility for the creatures he created and rather than exploit them, he needed to protect them and let them live their lives undisturbed. This was sort of his redemption, since he recognized that the idea was flawed from the start and everything that went wrong was ultimately on his shoulders. JP3 seems to follow that since it's stated to be illegal to go to the islands and unlawful tourism of it is a major plot point.
But then JW just has the Masrani Corporation acquire all the rights and such from InGen and go through with the park. That in itself isn't a big problem since InGen was already trying to do that even after Hammond tried to get them to fuck off, but then Masrani mentions that Hammond left him in charge so apparently Hammond recanted and decided that exploiting the dinosaurs for tourists was a great idea after all and forgot the huge lessons he learned in the first two movies.
Jack Roberts
>but then Masrani mentions that Hammond left him in charge so apparently Hammond recanted and decided that exploiting the dinosaurs for tourists was a great idea after all and forgot the huge lessons he learned in the first two movies.
That, or Masrani misunderstood Hammond at some point. Or chose to ignore him in certain parts. He did kinda go even more full retard than Hammond did.
Elijah Smith
Masrani bought out InGen shortly after the events of Lost World and Hammond's death. Hammond and his father were friends or something.
I just figure Masrani's buying into the park's own Walt Disney-esque PR or just felt deep down that Hammond would have loved to seen a world where the park actually worked.

Catching up, season 2 episodes 14 and 16 give me such good feels
Alexander Hill
I made a mistake, says 14 and 16 on kiss cartoon but they're really episodes 13 and 15
Aaron Bennett
Episode counts are a little dodgy for the first two seasons due to the first "episode" being a one-hour premiere made up of two episodes.
Some places count it as a single episode, some count it as episodes 1 and 2 together, and some places don't include the premiere in the episode count at all.
Alexander Richardson
All this talk of Jurassic Park makes me wonder, what would Star Wars, or even just the PT, be like if GL wrote the story and Spielberg directed it?

We were going to have more Umbara but the cancellation hit. I know one of the planned arcs was what Obi-wan was up to during the airstrikes Fives and crew dealt with.
John Ramirez
That was such a great arc. Makes you wonder how many Jedi were actually damaged by the battle on Umbara. I'm guessing this battle was what broke Barriss too.
Thomas Allen
Now you're just trying too hard.
Adrian Jackson
Not really, Anakin loved to express his emotions through dated slang. In that moment he was Anakin. I like it.
Austin Kelly
Krell is mentioned afterwards during the Temple Bombing Arc, but you're right we don't see any repercussions.
Where did you hear that?
Dylan Fisher
Shit if I remember, probably hearsay in one of these threads I guess.
John Allen
I've been following the canceled Clone Wars arcs very closely, and I guarantee to you that was not planned
James Reed
You could argue that the whole of Umbara probably shaped the rest of the show. And like said it might have factored into the whole Temple Bombing.
Nicholas Martinez
Star Wars is myth, changes to that myth however small are heresy in the literal sense of the term. If Star Wars isn't sacred to you then yes the differences are minor and arguing about it is stupid, but if it is sacred to you then it's literal heresy, they've committed a taboo you can't tolerate.

>>pottery
Joseph Cook
Spielberg has money, but he'd never be able to afford Disney's price for being Star Wars. Keep in mind, Disney is expecting the franchise to make them a shitload of money for years- they'd only be willing to let it go for an amount that would make up for the loss of revenue. It's going to be such a ridiculously large number that nobody's ever going to entertain it.
It's the same reason Disney can't just buy the movies rights to the Marvel properties Fox controls. Fox is going to want a shitload for it.
Ian Ross
These religious allegories to the theatrical versions have reached a new degree of ridiculousness.
That was Galaxy in Turmoil who used Free Radical's Battlefront assets. This is Free Radical's original Battlefront 3 build, not the GiT mod.
And the modders were fucking stupid anyway so when EA stepped in nothing of value was lost.

Religion is everywhere if you know what to look for.
