the reason is george lucas didn't decide to stop using written english in star wars until 2004 so the canon was already littered with it, so they just gave it a new name and left it in as a second alphabet, completely defeating the purpose of not just using the english alphabet here are the parts from wookiepedia that made me laugh: quote:Behind the scenes quote:Droids, too, are named with the alphabet, such as R2-D2 being called "Artoo-Detoo" rather than "Reshtoo Dorntoo," and C-3PO being See-Threepio and not Cresh-ThreePethOsk.

God bless you wookiepedia and thank you cubone. Honestly Japanese does the two identical writing systems thing so its not super weird for Galactic Standard to do that

Animal-Mother posted:Is this blue guy in any of the new Star Wars? He seemed pretty cool in Tie Fighter back in the day. Thrawn is the best character in all of Star Wars and that's pretty drat sad for what is supposed to be a movie-centric franchise.

Animal-Mother posted:I think I've watched all these new Star War movies but I was drunk most of the time, I may have skipped one or two. From what I understand, the gist of the story is that a rag-tag group of friends are fighting the new Not Empire, one of them is a Jedi but wasn't really trained by anybody, Luke didn't even want to train her, but she's a better sword fighter than the new Not Vader guy who I presume was trained in the evil stuff by the new Not Emperor. And the new Not Rebels are fighting the new Not Empire because..... there is nothing else to do in Star Wars stories? During the entire series, from the beginning of the prequels all the way through the movies now, everyone from slaves through people living in the capital of the goddamn empire who isn't directly, actively fighting the war has no loving idea what the gently caress is going on and doesn't care. Every single person or alien slob bucket ever met is like "Who the gently caress are you?" "What the gently caress is the Resistance/Rebels/Jedi", and has no qualms living under whatever government they're under at the time. They're all doing their own drat thing regardless and no one gives a flying poo poo about any of it, so even if the Rebels win forever no one would give a rats rear end and even when they supposedly were winning or had won nothing changed or got better or worse enough to change anything. Even when the Empire took over nothing changed from when it was the Republic and when it was the Republic no one cared about that poo poo either.

I totally misread the theme of Why Are We Still Fighting Old Conflicts from the past two movies because this seems like a step away from that. Will still be fun, hopefully
