I want a lightsaber but in the hands of a normie, just some lady that uses it to cut open locks and do property damage and occasionally cuts people up, no force at all ever brought up. Just uses a lightsaber cause she thinks its cool

All the telekinesis and other psychic powers, but technology has made them obsolete because if you just shoot them with a laser then they die, same as everyone else.

the expanded universe had "slugthrowers" i.e. "actual guns" which were still dangerous to the space wizards because best case scenario they'd still get hit with high velocity molten metal

Just uses a lightsaber cause she thinks its cool In fiction theres all kinds of dumb reasons why only force people use lightsabers, like talking to the rocks inside them or some stupid poo poo. The only one that ever made sense to me was that you needed magic space powers to not fumble the massless, inertia-less sword that effortlessly cleaves flesh and accidently cut your own head off. I could see having a pocket saber that only comes out two or three inches though, that would be cool. In general though, Star Wars either needs to fully embrace the wizard monk angle or ditch it entirely to be good. Everything in between those extremes sucks. C-Euro posted:This is John Boyega in TFA, minus the property damage. Just a dude who lucked into owning a lightsaber. The sequels would have been so much better if it had been Boyega as just 'really good with a lightsaber' versus the Empire. It would have been a story about a child soldier redeeming themselves, taking vengeance on their oppressors, and not needing space magic to save the day. Ridley could have filled the Han Solo slot. Poe would be Chewbacca.

Kylo does that with a laser gun because the sequels needed to make sure you knew that space magic is the strongest thing there is and anyone not a space wizard might as well not exist

josh04 posted:and yet general grievous was a robot and obi-wan just blew him away It was a space wizard that blew him away, not a regular guy with a gun. Looking back I kinda admire the prequels for how much they leaned into the fantasy elements. Space wizard fights an evil robot octopus. Sure why not? The prequels would have been a lot more fun if they'd ditched any ties to 'realism' at all and just gone gonzo with space wizardry and pushed the politics further into the background. King space wizard fights a muppet space wizard in the middle of the senate floor and actually throws senate seats at him in an unsubtle metaphor: fun; thirty minutes of expository laden scenes in the actual space senate: boring poo poo.

again, not to change the subject from the star war, but I'm kind of surprised this isn't talked about more. I knew this show existed, but I didn't know it's blatantly an ad for his presidential campaign. https://twitter.com/EW/status/1508889254201643016?s=20&t=qMfyDLbkYNJMEyPYzCoDgg he's doing a zelensky, and just like zelensky, he's basically got no real policies except generic platitudes and toe the line neoliberalism. edit: I just had a premonition. he frasier reboot season will be a dueling ad for kelsey grammer's own dumb presidential campaign, and they will attack each other through bad sitcoms.

Imagine if they'd let Donnie yen recreate his SPL alley fight with lightsabers in rogue one. But nope, can't have that Edit it even has a move like when Rey does the amazing!!! Dropping a weapon from one hand to another!! Except wu jing throws it like a frisbee from one hand to the other. Just say that uh, he has a short lightsaber and yen just had one of those electro things that doesn't cut, or whatever mando has mastershakeman has issued a correction as of 14:36 on Nov 3, 2022 |

I'm going remembering that yayan ruhian, iko uwais and Donnie yen have all been in star wars and the first two didn't even get to have a fight scene and yen was given awful action partners What's the best fight scene in the TV shows? Is it where 70 year old Giancarlo gets told to go all out against the stunt guy who can't see out of the helmet? mastershakeman has issued a correction as of 14:36 on Nov 3, 2022 |

The line between politics and pop culture is already paper-thin (at least in the US) so I guess we might as well completely obliterate it. Also the Rock would handily win a general election because he has a veneer of nice guy charisma, compared to something like Trump's douchebag charisma. mastershakeman posted:What's the best fight scene in the TV shows?
