Nah that's a Rancor child, they undergo forcegenesis as they age and mature into a full grown Rancor like his father who was senselessly killed in the pit. Alternatively, this proves that the Rancor master is a long lost Skywalker.

PeterWeller posted:I don't recall your take on Maul. Why do you say this? In Lucas’ series, Maul says: “at last, we will reveal ourselves the Jedi. At last, we will have revenge.” Who is “we” here? A naive viewer might believe “we” refers to the Sith: he and Palpatine. It’s the “revenge of the Sith” from Episode 3. But then, why is Maul personally so angry? The Sith were wiped out by the Jedi centuries ago. He has no connection to these ancient Sith - so what did the Jedi do to him? Maul’s statement is contextualized by the colonialism and slavery in the Republic, the Jedis’ complicity in exploitation. Maul displays a ‘tribal’ facepaint/tattoo designed to accentuate his literal red skin. He stands for the unresolved injustices suffered by Anakin and the Gungans. The Jedi see Maul as a devil because of his race, and he leans into that as a show of defiance (as militant Chewbacca does in Episode 4). ROS then restores the naive/stupid interpretation to canon. Retroactively, “we” refers to the Exogolians, literal satanic ghouls. As with so many other things, they borrowed a thing from Lucas but omitted the narrative context. And, in this case, it’s also a sociopolitical context.

SuperMechagodzilla posted:In Lucas’ series, Maul says: “at last, we will reveal ourselves the Jedi. At last, we will have revenge.” Ahh, okay. So Maul is both condemned to and a product of Exogol, and can be reproduced en-masse like star destroyers or red storm troopers or Palpatines? Just like whatever it takes to have new threats and villains? I like this parallel between Maul and Palpatine. Both were literally cast down into pits and thought destroyed, but they cannot be destroyed because they're just expressions of this evil that exists only to be existential evil.

To clarify: Snoke is a clone (I guess), but Palpatine and the other hooded figures are not. Sheev still carries his injuries from the Death Star (2), so this is the same body that fell into the pit. (ROS simply retcons the explosion of the Death Star (2) to be much smaller.) Disney Maul is, likewise, still bisected in Solo. To put things most simply, Exogol is a retirement home for vanquished satanic mutants. Since the hooded figures are all ‘merely’ retired Sith, there is a finite amount of them. (The people staffing the boats are also not clones; they‘re First Order troops that have been hastily reassigned to the new ships.) The main question here is: why retire?

It's called the Clone Wars because it involved a big army of clones, the Republic hasn't needed an army in a long time because individual planets have their own, and they probably could cobble together one but a) having an independent army of disposable clones makes going to war more palatable, and b) Palpatine wants his soldiers to be loyal to him specifically

Or that they couldn't cobble together the various planetary armies if there is no single one? It makes some sense. For one thing, there was nobody to fight. It's not like the Republic was like the Federation and had Romulans/Klingons/Borg on their borders. Pretty much everyone was already in the Republic. They're weren't any outside threats to defend again. Meanwhile, the Jedi with their emphasis on control/statis/harmony could sense trouble spots, get to them and defuse them with a Force-pushed word in somebody's ear. Or a lightsaber through somebody's guts. And they had a monopoly on Force power prior to Palpatine. So, why spend a fuckton of resources on a standing army when the Jedi will fix everything and there's nobody to really fight in any case? BTW, for those wondering about the Dicked Star Destroyer origin, the simplest explanation is that Palpatine had already built the "Star Destroyer" parts as the Emperor. Once he died, presumably various secret orders where transmitted to various captains and crews to take their ships to a particular set of coordinates that ended up leading to Exigol. At which point the crews where put into some kind of stasis or something by the will of the Emperor/Knights of Ren/Sith. Once he came fully back Shreev dipped into hidden Imperial accounts to pay for building the guns and attaching them to the ships. So he gets his super-fleet. Also, he cripples any potential rivals for the throne by removing so many military assets from the Empire at a critical time, allowing the Rebellion to destroy/capture his various potential rivals. He uses Snoke and the First Order as cats paws. If the New Republic crushes them, he waits for a better time. If they cripple the Republic he moves to reveal himself and take control. And none of that poo poo is made at all explicit.

Yeah the clone plot makes sense; Sheev needs an army loyal to him and there is 0 indication in Phantom Menace the Republic has ever needed an actual organized fleet given their solution to problems seems to be "throw some Jedi at it" and Naboo has a contingent of its own weapons and hardware that wouldnt be useful for bombing the Gungans. As for its name in English we have the French and Indian War which is so named after the people on the same side who were fought against. Calling a war that launched the use of cloned soldiers into the public conciousness and ended the use of drones for battle makes sense.

Hey, you know what’s hosed up? On reviewing TFA and considering the sequel trilogy as a whole...for all its faults, I actually like The Last Jedi the most. Sure, it fucks itself towards the end, but it’s pretty drat good before that point. TFA on the other hand starts the whole nullification of everything in the original trilogy and is a pretty paint-by-numbers action film anyway, overly reliant on nostalgia. TROS has the same problems jacked up to eleven by deciding to retcon/override the previous film and ending up faceplanting into dog poo poo as a result. We know exactly how terrible it is. People only liked TFA because it was the first big Star Wars in a decade and it set the tone for the rest of the trilogy. If someone else had directed TFA and everything else was identical, TROS would be even more poorly received because of how trite and dumb it is in comparison. gently caress, what a waste.

TLJ starts off with a your mom joke and one of the worst choreographed space battles in the franchise so I wouldn’t say the start is any good either. The commander of the dreadnaught sums up my feelings for the movie pretty nicely.

Disney Maul is, likewise, still bisected in Solo. Sure, Palpatine retains injuries from Jedi, and Maul is still bisected, and even the chopped up Snoke bodies in the tube recall the last image of him from TLJ, so clearly, even if they are clones in a mechanical sense, they're clones who reflect the experience of their originals, and are those originals brought back to (un)life. But you said, "there were literally a million Darth Mauls being kept in reserve," which is practically an infinite amount of him. I'm interested in the idea that Skywalker has rendered him just another repeatable villain that can be recalled from reserve. I like that you characterize Exogol as a retirement home and ask why retire. It doesn't seem a place one chooses to retire to. Palpatine and Maul are cast down pits. And the "retirement" they experience is simply another layer of liability. Maul is the shadowy figure behind Crimson Dawn. Palpatine is the shadowy figure behind the First and Final Orders. So the answer becomes: why note "retire"? Doing so achieves the same great power of the Jedi: immortality. In narrative terms, Palpatine and Maul do the same thing all the blue ghost and voice over Jedi do and more.
