Cyberball 2072 posted:Star Wars: Ships of the Galaxy should come with a cd-rom. I'm not kidding, if it were 1994 that would likely be a much more awesome release. Speaking of 1994, I was reminded the other day of a star wars eu thing that is awesome, https://archive.org/details/StarlogStarWarsTechnicalJournalVol02TheImperialForces I must've been about 14 when it came out but I probably read it over and over for a week.

Galactic Conquest was the best circa 2004 or so. Whatever that loving autist has done since has tarnished the reputation of a legitimately great mod. It was up there with modern combat as far as fun/quality.

If R2 actually had all that info in him the entire time he's the galaxy's biggest rear end in a top hat. I mean c'mon gently caress that guy. Watched Luke try to bang his sister. Let him think his dad is dead. Worst friend.

The Taint Reaper posted:The Clone Trooper episodes are one of the best because it plays out like a war movie especially after they start seeing everyone die and realize that they're expendable and that there was no real way to erase the sense of individualism and self preservation from human clones. Because they develop individual personalities from just being exposed to poo poo. The clones are the best part of that series. The various hairstyles and tattoos they get to distinguish themselves over time are a really well done detail. The one episode with the deserter who started a family with a twilek was especially good.

Moridin920 posted:just remembered how according to the EU, the empire's trap with the 'non-functioning' death star in return of the jedi was actually just IG-88 uploading his consciousness to the Death Star's main computers and fixing everything up for them and manually firing the laser and the imperials were just as surprised as the rebels. Wait. During the trap? Was Sheev in on this?

Buschmaki posted:But they aren't real if they aren't canon, watch the movies idiot, it tells you that it's all based on true historical events. As a real young kid I used to daydream that Lucas was a refugee from the Empire. In my dreams Star Wars was based on real events but was false pro-rebel propaganda. One day the Empire would track him down and conquer the Earth. Then, at last, I would be able to go to space and die in some shithole to an IED after being conscripted into the Imp Army.

If it has the same energy as the new Trek movies then who cares. The prequels were loving lifeless and most of the EU even moreso. The fact they have practical effects lets me have a new..... hope?

A better story would have used clones instead of droids for the separatists. The Republic would have had to muster an army of normal people bolstered by the Jedi. Over the course of the films the Jedi would be obviously superior and the normal rabble grew resentful of their arrogance etc. Sheev uses the populist disgust about the over class to foster a coup and install the Empire. A soviet film.

It always made me laugh that Sheev was able to set up all these wicked evil science labs in the 15-18 years he had running the empire until the battle of Yavin. What did these people do under the republic?

Like a kid-friendly We Were Soldiers or Black Hawk Down or whatever with blasters and plastic armor. Just a whole movie of stormtrooping and TIE strafing runs. Seriously. The best part of the prequels was the battle in Ep2 in the dust storm. Nothing else came close.

Chill la Chill posted:Yeah. I mean I know it's a science fantasy hero's journey but I really would like that sort of take on it too. I mean, sucks to be that guy whose serving aboard the Death Star, home planet was Alderaan, and was two weeks away from retirement at Yavin. This is kind of the backstory for Tycho Something in the x-wing books. He defected after they popped Alderaan.

I can see the psych damage with fett since he sees dads head get popped off and just has the helmet. It kid of mirrors Rorschach in Watchmen. I guess the point is that no one writes anything in Star Wars as if they were real people.
