Robo Reagan posted:this is probably the most annoying thing about the EU, lovely writing aside. there aren't any nobody characters. If they've got a name, then they're one of the most important people in the galaxy. That's the fuckin truth right there. Anakin being the creator of C3PO is the absolute pinnacle of this. Hell, R2D2 and C3P0's very existence in the prequels is absurd.

Jace Madan posted:For real though they better bring Kyle Katarn Back into the SW universe, he's one of my most favorite characters. There is a CHANCE. There is talk in the Star Wars Rebels thread about plans for an animated movie about how the death star plans were captured. I think all the Kyle Katarn fans know that story. If they decide to change it or not is up to Disney though.

Chill la Chill posted:I just wish there was more of a feeling behind Yoda's hermitage. If he hid not only due to being hunted down but as penance after realizing that those clone troopers weren't disposable people at all but that even he as a wise master didn't see that. Would've only taken like 30s of screen time. Yoda actually sees the clones as people, a lot of the jedi do, after fighting alongside them. Also I think in season 5 of The Clone Wars, the jedi figure out that he clones were originally commissioned by the bad guys, but they're like "oh poo poo. Well we're in this war too deep now, I guess we gotta just keep trying to win." The cartoons also explain the hermitage more I think. They're really the best Star Wars thing since the originals.

Gammatron 64 posted:I didn't think Jar Jar was all that racist at first, but I started watching Clone Wars recently and holy crap he is seriously honest to God straight out of a minstrel show. Lawdy lawdy massa messa Jah Jah binks gonna go picka da cotton, okie-day? This. He's not a retarded Rastafarian, I don't know where people are getting that, unless they've never been exposed to America's past. He's a racist as gently caress 1800s-1970s depiction of black people, just as an alien. Him and his whole species live separately but equal to the humans on Naboo.

The force unleashed sucks, if you want to throw people around with your mind get Psy Ops. it's not star wars related at all, but you can take over people's minds and make them shoot themselves in the head.

George Lucas has been out to destroy Indiana Jones since the day the idea crossed his desk. G — We've established that he's a college professor. It doesn't have to be done in a strong way. It starts out in a museum. They just call him doctor this and doctor that. We can very easily make that transition, and very quickly establish that whole side of his character. In the story the ramifications of him as a ghost hunter have not been dealt with yet. But I put it in his character for use in some other way. He's been pushing that ghost bullshit since day 1.

It never gets mentioned again, but there is a chance Indy is a pedo. Thanks George Lucas.

WeaponGradeSadness posted:I want one of the 3 billion spinoff movies they're undoubtedly going to make to be just a straight-up war movie following a stormtrooper squad. 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. They pretty much did that once or twice in The Clone Wars.

Big Mean Jerk posted:Traviss depicted Mandos as honor-bound farmers who only fought for noble causes or whatever the gently caress. Basically imagine how white people view native americans and maori and apply that to a race of space nomad people who dress like Boba Fett and live on Nebraska: The Planet. The Clone Wars series depicted mandalore as having a ruling monarchy that was being harassed by dudes dressed like Boba on a planet with high technology and cool looking skyscrapers. It also gave Obi-Wan (JEDI OLIGARCHY!!!) a good love interest and most of the armor-wearing mandos were bad guys who sided with darth maul and his insane brother (seriously) in a later episode. Clone Wars makes mandos Space Fascists with Warrior Culture. Obi's love interest tries to change that and bring peace to her planet, but her people are all too happy to drop that peace poo poo and be Space Nazis in a second, if it makes the space trains run on time. And there is some poo poo about honorable one on one duels and "You keep what you kill." Sammus fucked around with this message at 08:53 on Oct 26, 2015 |

mr.capps posted:clone wars is the perfect show to watch while playing a video game like ftl. you can tune out during the boring episodes and then pay attention to the clone trooper stuff. like its just pretty decent and it actually does some interesting stuff sometimes. The trooper stuff is definitely the best. Even for a kid's show they don't shy away from killing a bunch of people.

Groovelord Neato posted:I've read a number of articles talking about they want the next movie to explain what happened between return of the jedi and the force awakens and where the new order came from when we don't need any of that and would probably be insanely stupid and we already have all the information we need about all of that in the force awakens. Disney will probably make a cartoon about it anyway.

I really doubt Lucas even thought about such things when he was writing Star Wars the first time. I can buy hiding out on Tatooine (safari autocorrected that for me, which is pretty cool) because it's a big drat universe, even if we only ever visit 5 or 10 planets. And Darth Vader hides the fact that he's Anakin, so spending any significant time there, even a few trips every decade, would raise questions. Really Obi should've raised Luke on Naboo, because that is where everything started. It would make for a better story. Instead that's where Sheev is from.
