Kinda strange. Didn't know I could get cross thread (You)'s.
Anyways you should be able to realize that Jango Fett, who almost manage to take out a Jedi Master in hand to hand combat, has much more fighting prowess than a cheaply made Droid who can get rekt by a Gungan.

Was designed to be sold to customers, for use in already existing armies. The TF ended up using them themselves, so just put pilot droids in them.
Kevin Smith
Eli Garcia
My theory is that because both AOTC and TWC highlights a mysterious figure (Palpatine + Dooku) being part in parcel of creating the Clones, to Clones had to be chosen over Droids for the Grand Army of the Republic specifically with Order 66 in mind.
If droids were used to perform Order 66, the Jedi would win easily, even the most elite Separatist droids stood no chance against the top 30-40% of Jedi, even during surprise attacks.
Whereas the elite Clone Troopers, raised from birth to fight, (aka Space Spartans), were elite troops who, in the right numbers and using the tactics inherited from combat experience serving under the Jedi, would have the ability to do so.
At-least that is my theory on the subject.
(I'm not the person you're replying to though, just intrigued in your ideas.)
Xavier Stewart

clones are organics with an organic brain, they can more easily think for themselves and think outside the box versus droids who have to be programmed to think differently
but you can't give droids too much thinking freedom or you'll have a robot rebellion on your hands, that's why they have control ships so a big brain can do the thinking for them, if cut off from it they will follow subroutines to just kill enemies but have no free thinking or survival skills
clones do have survival skills if cut off from command they can continue operating at full battle effectiveness

The EU missed the mark on old Star Wars by making shit more generic and the reason the original movies ad such staying power is due to their surrreal, mystical feel. Star Wars would do well to go back to that 70's psychedelia roots and maybe get really weird (maybe rip off the Incal or something)

The ST is so blatantly non-canon in every conceivable way, it's quite easy to ignore it when talking about actual Star Wars. I look forward to several years from now, when the ST is pretty forgotten and the OT and PT are the only films considered "real Star Wars" by the fanbase.

Jaxson Green
I agree, less is more in a lot of cases, but when Lucas wanted more he went all out (Jabba), the sequels are yet to have an iconic alien
Hunter Rogers
That is why The Art of the Phantom Menace was the best artbook from the prequels, because its mostly Chiangs greytone artwork that has a McQuarrie feel to it.
The Art of Attack of the Clones brought in Erik Tiemens and Ryan Church as the main artists, and they have this loose digital painting style that I dont like. Its more about mood than actually showing structure to things, which Chiang does very well
Jayden Flores

Juan Rogers
Mos Eisley dinosaurs were awesome. I agree with Lucas about Han and Greedo.
Han turned out to be a basic moral good guy for most of the series so it doesnt make sense to have him be a cold blooded killer in one early scene.
John Gutierrez
>Han turned out to be a basic moral good guy for most of the series so it doesnt make sense to have him be a cold blooded killer in one early scene.
Nah that was his arc. He started out as a selfish smuggler who had no qualms looking out for himself if it meant killing Jaba's messenger boy. By the end of ep4, he redeems himself and saves Luke at the last second (of course he did other heroic stuff, but it was explicitly stated by him that he was in it for the money).
Joseph Williams
Lucas has been fucking with Star Wars for longer, ROTJ was trash but I loved the A-Wing, B-Wing, and TIE Interceptor.

Lucas might as well be part fish he flip flopped so often. Don't forget his infamous quote about the danger of altering art:
slashfilm.com
>In the future it will become even easier for old negatives to become lost and be “replaced” by new altered negatives. This would be a great loss to our society. Our cultural history must not be allowed to be rewritten.
His primary argument is that the author should have domain over their work, but that quote is pretty ironic.

This is cool, but it also fucks me off when I realize they had to destroy a Mauser C96 to make Han Solo's DL44. At least the Sterling was mass produced and at the time, a currently serving weapon in the British Army.
I also liked the mix between the MG34 and the MG42 in the stormtroopers heavy guns, and the one that had a Lewis Gun barrel. Cool stuff.
But overall. I prefer the prequel weapons where they got a concept artist to just come up with something new. As a WW2 autist and gun autist, all the OT weapons stick out like a sore thumbs, even more so in video games when I see them in first person.

That's what I said, the characters and writing ruined it.

Finn didn't exist originally, he was a white guy called Sam. Rey didn't exist either in Lucas's ep 7 draft. She was some girl called Kira.
KK corrupted Lucas's vision and made it shit. But the reason the opening few minutes of TFA were still passable, with nice shots of the crashed ISD, or Rey living in the broken down AT-AT, is because that was the only parts of Lucas's treatment they actually used. As soon as the film goes to shit, is the same part they chucked out Lucas's version and started making their own plot.

It's crazy how good TFA is for the most part until the Falcon leaves Jakku. Ren looking at Finn on the battlefield because he notices the conflict within him gave me such high hopes that JJ knew what he was doing with the franchise.
Kevin Price
Same here. The ST is pretty far removed from real Star Wars, it tries to ruin the OT but it only works if you consider the ST canon anyways.
Though I wonder if Lucas had made his own ST, with the Whills of the Force, if it would have overwritten the Vongshit, and the Jacen/Jaina stuff, or if they would have set it afterwards?
Josiah Jones
It's a disappointing affair. In an alternate timeline, the og cast would've been reunited onscreen and Lucas would've delivered something far more interesting even if the writing didn't improve on the PT.

As a once-fan of Star Wars, I sincerely need help guys. I lived and breathed this stuff growing up as an only child with a working mother, and it was such an amazing and fun universe to deep dive into. It really helped me through some tough times, and I can't state how much of a massive impact it had on me growing up. Trying to reconcile 35 years of love for this universe with the absolute abomination it's become under Disney is driving me crazy. After I watched TLJ, I swore off Star Wars and dropped it from my life utterly, but I have my own son now, and while I don't want to expose him to Star Wars given what Disney has done with it, at the same time I feel like I'm robbing him of something precious that thousands of other boys before him have enjoyed. How is it fair to do that?
I know that the obvious answer is to just ignore the ST, but like it or not, it's been permanently ingrained into the franchise now like some terrible fucking cancer, and with each year Disney controls the franchise it just becomes more and more pervasive to the point where you can't just turn a blind eye to it, especially if my son's peers are all keyed-in to the sequels etc. How do I in good conscience introduce my kid to a character like Han Solo when he ends up being a deadbeat divorcee who gets murdered by his own edgelord son? Or to Luke, who ends up as a disgruntled hermit in exile who dies because he turned himself into a fucking hologram for an overglorfied Skype call? You can't seperate the ST from the series, anymore than you can seperate the PT from the OT at this point, and the impact of just two movies on the 6 that came before it is so damaging that I don't know how to salvage it.
>inb4 incel/have sex, etc.
This is not a troll. I'm trying to reach out to other fans who are in the same position in all sincerity, since the people in these threads seem genuine.

Luke Mitchell
I sincerely don't know man. You can be realistic and say it's just a series and let your son enjoy what he likes about it, but the damage disney's imposed on the brand is intractable. It dampened my enjoyment of the series going forward because they'll keep messing with it in ways that were never intended. It feels like the mouse sucked all the inspiration out of the series to the point that even the music in the ST sounds generic.

Yeah, it's just unbelievable. I never would have imagined the franchise would end up like this, and the utter contempt I have for JJ, Kennedy, Rian etc for basically robbing an entire generation of young boys of this cultural touchstone is beyond words.
I think I'll probably introduce him to the PT and the OT, and then maybe in the future talk to him a bit about the ST, pointing out that it wasn't made by George and isn't actually legitimate. I don't know. I don't really see another way of approaching it.
Zachary Wilson
I used to pretend my Star Wars toys were something else.
Noah Gomez
Pretty much what I'd suggest. There really isn't any way around it like you said
Colton Phillips
It's insane, the OT is timeless and able to be loved by all generations. Then TFA comes out and it's shills say "We needed a soft reboot for a new generation!". Like, what the fuck, my whole life no one had ever said that ANH needed an updated remake until I was sitting there watching it.
Michael Adams
>Yeah, it's just unbelievable. I never would have imagined the franchise would end up like this, and the utter contempt I have for JJ, Kennedy, Rian etc for basically robbing an entire generation of young boys of this cultural touchstone is beyond words.

Aiden Scott
It's only "kiddy" in the first season. But even then, it's not bad at all and still has good episodes. People just didn't like the movie because they were still salty over the PT. The movie was the most "kiddy" part of the whole show. Start with the movie since it introduced Ahsoka and is canon, but know that Ahsoka becomes more likable in the first season, and it gets less kiddy later on, mainly around S3, but S2 was quite good it even had an old monster movie inspired episode arc based off of Godzilla/King Kong where they found a beast on a far away planet, and it was brought back to Coruscant and got loose. Clone Wars was fun as fuck even when it was in the kiddy stage to be honest.

Gonna be honest here lads. I really don't like these and am glad Lucas didn't go with them. Lots of them feel way to flat and lifeless/abstract, like worlds that make no sense. It's too brutalistic for Coruscant as well, not Gothic enough. I really think the Blade Runner Coruscant we got was much better.
McQuarrie, while good at points, is overrated. He was good with character designs and natural planets. Not as good with architectural planets.
Evan Wright
My mom cut apart a milk jug to look like bo Fett's helmet. All the neighborhood kids were super fucking jelly.
Josiah Lewis
I'm in the same position but I am happy with just having Episodes 1-6 and there will always be that hardcore section of the fanbase that disregards Disney as canon. No need to look at it too negatively, especially since the ST is failing on an artistic level and has failed to capture an audience.
Jonathan Baker
Certain slides at playgrounds as certain cockpits for fighters.
Carson Smith
>too brutalistic
Yeah, I think it would've worked well for a different type of insidious empire manufacturing hub world. I'll agree with you that the Alderaan concept art lacks a SW vibe. I like it just as stand alone artwork.
Isaiah Watson
It's extremely easy to consider the ST non canon. It doesn't impact anything at all. Just let your kid watch George's 6 films, both Clone Wars shows and then get him into the books and games. Trust me. If he plays something like Jedi Outcast, then finds out Disney decanonized it and Kyle Katarn just so they could have Rey, he will be as mad as you are. Don't show him any ST content or films, not even fucking R1. Tell him they are bad, bad movies, made by bad people, who hate Star Wars.
Do not rob him of a childhood of wonder. That is what cunts like KK want. Let the past live, kill the present if you must.
Landon Foster

John Watson
Get the official BD's, or 30+ gig REMUX's or the 4K fan scans of the OT and PT and get your son to watch those. If he wants to see the ST films, pirate some 700 megabyte YIFY turd or a camrip and let him wallow in disgust at it.

Reminds me of the third X-Men film of how good Magneto was in it, mainly because those were the unaltered parts from the original film.
Carter Ward
From a book detailing the concept art:
>Lucas is quoted as saying: "At one point I wanted the Emperor's palace to be cathedral-like. It would have been more like you are going to meet Satan. It was more of an occult – the indescribable thing of evil. It's the evil that pollutes the galaxy, and this is where it lives."
The setting of the emperor's throne room was originally envisioned as positioned in the middle of a lake of lava with Luke being tested and tempted to fall to the dark side during his confrontation with Vader. I assume it was partly inspired by this:

Just curious about how R2D2's depiction actually worked onscreen. I already got the basics about the two suits/props, one manned (Baker) one not. Any details welcome. To my surprise, I don't know any details about this.
Lucas Anderson
The problem with a lot of the cool concept art in the last few threads, is a lot of it has unused ideas, or Lucas was only able to put half of it in the film, or an idea made it into the film, but only got 7 seconds screentime or something. There was so much good stuff unused.
What I really liked about The Clone Wars, was that it had the time to go back and explore all this concept art and expand on it, put it into the show, as well as doing new stuff. They were really able to explore the galaxy.
Even in the kiddy S1, I just opened a random ep to a random scene, and I see cool stuff. Gonna flick through random eps from the first season which everyone says is too childish to enjoy and post cool examples of adding to the universe.

>God fucking damnit. I guess not. What sort of image board has an image limit anyways. Why not have it be 300 images, 300 posts. Fucking Moot such a dumb shit, cheap Jewish faggot kike luggage cuck.
You're welcome to make a new thread. I'm interested in seeing what you have to post. We're already on the third one and all we can do is discuss what's already posted until the limit is reached.

It's easy to see ST as noncanon because it's so fucking devoid of cool aesthetic stuff in the background. Planet designs and alien designs have gone in the gutter, Canto Bight is their most creative thing and it is literally Monte Carlo aka feels like a place on Earth.
Compare that to Cloud City, a setting that could only exist in sci-fi with so many great visuals in it. The prequels had problems but everyone loved all the shit going on in the background of the settings, if we got those kinds of backgrounds but with cleaned up dialogue the ST would have inspired a lot more EU stuff than the black hole it is now with the characters jumping around different empty battlefield planets.

Give him episodes 1 through 6 and the hand-drawn Clone Wars series, introduce him to the comic books, start spoon-feeding him the EU novels, and tell him that real Star Wars ended in 2014 and that Disney is evil and that everything they've made is a lie.
Hell, teaching him about Disney could be his first life lesson about the nature of huge corporations.

Nah I've already spent half my day here. I need to get of Yea Forums for a while. Once this threads over I will be out, unless someone makes another one.

You are right, but it's kinda a blessing in disguise. Makes it way easier to consider that fanfiction crap non canon.

I haven't seen Solo yet, but the ST is just a painfully dull world.
We have Jakku, which is literally Not-Tatooine, it's the only good part of the entire ST and that is really stretching, and only because of the crashed ISD on it, and that was Lucas's idea. It has no real identity of it's own, it's literally just a Tatooine knockoff.
I can't even remember the other planets names. Where did they find the orange yoda? It just looked like a normal forest, but with a Yavin like temple. It was literally just some place in Europe/Canada/USA with a set built near a lake. No identity at all.
Starkiller base is just a Euro forest in winter, but also a deathstar. Absolute fucking cringe.
The planet Luke is on is literally just a tiny island that looks like some place in Scotland or Greenland.
The Resistance base, is it Yavin again? I don't know. Looks like some place in England, the hangers look like old WW2 hangers.
Canto Bight is the only place that does have some flair, but it feels totally out of place, and not like Star Wars at all.
Then there is Crait. It's just Hoth with Salt. Someone made a joke that in Ep 9 they will go to Not-Geonosis, and suddenly one of the Resistance troops bends over and starts licking the sunburnt dirt, and says "It's Cumin!" Honestly the Salt line felt like a joke. Disney thinks creating a new alien planet is time to break out the quips and treat it as some le joke world.

The problem is everything feels like it's a place on earth, and not a new planet or world, unless it was literally ripping off OT planets. Even R1 had this. Jedda was another not Tatooine, though at least it had the fallen statues in the desert and the caves, so at least it tried. And it had it's own not Mos Eisley, but at least it was on top of a mesa, so it tried. I don't know why they are so afraid of just actually going back to Tatooine? To afraid to be compared to George when it's subpar? Need the excude of it beign a different world? The black sand planet in the beginning of R1 was shit looking and meh, but at least something new. Then there was the black rock planet which was unmemorable and boring.
And then there is Scariff. The only cool new original edition. Even though it's clearly some pacific islands. The close arrangement of the islands surrounded by shallow waters was pretty cool. And we hadn't seen anything like that in the previous movies. So I do have to give it points there. I mean, at least it was visually nice.
So far, Scarrif and Jedda are the height of Disney Wars. Someone who's seen Solo, is there anything good from that? I know Corellia is in that right. It's a world from the old canon, that was never shown in any major thing, so I am kinda apprehensive about Disney being the ones to finally visualize it.
Easton Fisher
This but also show him Filoni Wars, not just Gendy Wars.
Also tell him redpills on Disney like how they own all their employee's ideas. I remember hearing as a kid, that if you worked for Disney, and merely came up with an idea while you worked there, it was theirs. Anything you drew, wrote down or imagined, was legally theres. So if you had a cool idea, and you wanted to do something with it. You couldn't even make notes on your home computer, or they'd own it. You'd just have to remember it until your contact was over, then write it all down afterwards and date it and get a lawyer, and wait a while so it seems like you came up afterwards. Then Disney could still pretend you came up with it while employed with them.
Fuck Disney.

>Han draws and fires with no hesitation as soon as he sees Vader
One of my favorite OT moments.
Jeremiah Rivera
In Solo there's one decent shot of Corellian spaceport in the morning as Han flees it, rest of the movie is nondescript mining stations and bars and isolated beaches.
That movie tried to bring in the old EU by just name dropping things like Teras Kasi, that old videogame, and also Woody Harrelson's character is famous for killing Aurra Sing. No depth to these references, just hey guys we named these things you know. Better than what TFA or TLJ did but still shallow.
Andrew Taylor
Cloud City is my aesthetic.
Xavier Powell
>Woody Harrelson's character is famous for killing Aurra Sing
>Aurra Sing is dead
Fuck this. Why did they kill her off screen?
Jackson Wright
Just so people who knew who she was would react to it, and make you think Woody Harrelson's generic merc character was a badass.

I can only imagine the script meetings for trying to get old fans back, and them deciding to namedrop that "nerdy lame old EU we decanonized". Imagine some boomer fuck exec telling some intern at Lucasfilm to get on wiki and look up Star Wars things to namedrop.
>Hey sport, whydoncha trying look up some video games, I hear the kids love those things these days, list me the titles so I can pick a reference sport!
>O-okay sir, uh how about Battlefront?
>Pass, too nondescript, people might miss the reference
>what about Republic Commando sir?
>*kvetches* PREQUEL CONTENT? NO WAY!
>o-oh okay, um Jedi Academy
>no, Rey doesn't have a Jedi academy, we are trying to forget the past failures of Luke and his Jedi Academy
>what about Knights of the Old Republic sir?
>Old?! I said we are trying to forget the past dimwit! Next title!
>Sir what about Rogue Squadron
>I dunno about that sport, sounds too much like the fandom at the moment, going rogue on us, we can't have that, pass
>Empire at War sir?
>Mmm, close but no, it would remind people of the Clone Wars and the scale of it all, we want to bring Star Wars back to an insurgency. Think, RESIST!
>what about Dark Forces
>no again, people would miss the reference
>X wing vs Tie fighter sir
>Aren't they just spaceships?
>what about Lethal Alliance sir
>The Alliance? Now hold on now, we don't want to go reminding people of the rebels, it might overshadow Rey and the resistence
>new droid army sir
>*spits out his coffee* DROIDS! You mean like in the Prequels!?
>o-okay sir sorry sir, uh how about Masers of Teras Kasi sir
>THAT IT!, that's fucking it, all we have to do is reference this Teras Kasi and we've got the fandom back, they'll love it.
Did no one realize Teras Kasi is one of the worst recieved Star Wars games even released? Also that Aurra Sing reference kek.

>we need to get the PT fanbase on board user, how are we gonna do it
>why don't we reference a minor character sir, that way our target audience of teenage girl and 40 year gen X OT fans wont realize it's a PT reference, only dedicated PT fans will
>genius user, lets go with it
>"I killed Aurra Sing"
Can't even reference the PT without them literally trying to kill it. Even in throwaway lines of dialog they try to destroy the past.
