Kathleen Kennedy faught for Abrams to direct the first movie, and then fell out with him. Then she faught for Johnson to do the rest. Abrams wanted to make entertainment, but isn't very good at it. Johnson didn't care about entertainment, he wanted to make 'art'.
I'm not even going to go into what happened with Treverrow, and Lord & Miller.
Disney's Star Wars has been mismanaged since the start. It is only now finding its feet again with the arrival of Disney +, and that is too little too late.
Jon Favreau ASKED for these movies. I cannot imagine why they didn't give them to him, or I can, and it doesn't speak to anything good.
>"Death Star Destroyers" which appear to be exactly what they sound like. Star Destroyers with Death Star tech mounted on them, giving them the capability to destroy a planet.
Rebels are incapable of holding things and organising anything long term
The people are mostly pro empire too so the rebels get kicked off by the natives after they conquer some place
truly rebels are the terrorists that nobody likes

Holy shit this sounds so fucking bad
as far as i remember, humans pilot these things. quite obviously maintaining this formation is a lot less mentally taxing than some 3d shit where you have ships above and below you. not to mention the profitability of starting a cascading chain of unavoidable crashes is about 1000x higher in a 3d formation. 'nowhere to go' without another ship there to hit
fyi these things have little peckers on them now, slung below like dogs dicks red tip and all
It's almost like there's on reason for a hundred of these ships to be so close together in the first place. Also, what are navigation computers
They're sitting in dry dock waiting to be found and piloted
If they are flying them this close they aren't doing it manually, you would want to be further apart in ships that big, not to mention if they were using them to attack only the front row could attack unless they are dropping bombs.

Search your feelings, you know it to be true!
is star wars all about feelings being superior to facts?

No matter how dull one considers the political backdrop of the prequel trilogy, it is far more intellectual and thought out than the sequel trilogy plotlines.
Disney shits on Favreau since Iron Man 2, they didn't let him do alcoholic Tony and after that they took The Avengers from him

this might be one of the stupidest things I've ever read
and the empire always lose onscreen
Let's be fair here, the galaxy would be better off if Sheev still was in charge
Why is it always about destroying entire planets?
Wouldn't it make more sense and be of more benefit for an empire to enslave or wipe out the people and leave the planet intact and use its resources?

Well, that's my point. The sequel trilogy's plots are on the level of "here be bigger lasers".

How can they be so creatively bankrupt? It's a universe where you can do basically anything and say its either the force or super advanced bullshit tech, yet they keep revisiting the death star concept
Everything about the sequel trilogy is so hilariously misguided and fumbled that it feels like a concerted effort to destroy the reputation of Star Wars. The movies are literally 0/10s.
Dude don't be retard we don't know yet who was Snoke and his amazing stories in the Unknown region were gold, diamonds and experts engineers are everywhere, until Disney release these books/comics/games we shouldn't criticize them okey? Thanks

I think they'd deserve at least 3/10 for the visuals alone but yeah, if you're not willing to shut your brain off for a couple hours they are almost comically bad.
As meh as it is I think Rogue One is still the best nuWars movie. Or the least shitty one anyway.
why didn't they just do that from the beginning
>As meh as it is I think Rogue One is still the best nuWars movie. Or the least shitty one anyway.
Rogue One actually felt like a Star Wars movie. It's the only one that actually felt like a legit entry into the franchise.
Apparently even George liked it.
They’re going in single file lines to hide their numbers.
>JJ's such a fucking hack
jewjew owes his entire career to ethnic nepotism.
rian or trevorow would have made bad movies but they would have been better than this.
Rogue One surviving Disney's mandatory reshoots is a testament to how good the original cut is.
Daily reminder: Having the story be about continuing pro-imperial sentiment in the galaxy was too smart for Disney, so they made it about white supremacists.
Daily reminder: Having Rey and other guy I can't remember the name of anymore unite and moderate the First Order was too smart for Disney, so boring guy is now the main baddie and does evil because he's a white male and shut up goy.
Daily reminder: No matter how many times the bad guys lose in NuWars they'll have infinite of everything somehow because a slow rise to power over decades, ie: Palpatine, is too smart for Disney.
Daily reminder: The "Battle of Jakku" is pointless canon bullshit to cover for the fact JJ wanted visuals of Star Destroyers crashed in the desert, since the imperials still exist and have fleets of shit everywhere apparently.
How many planets have they been kicked out of?
>lets hang out like dudes with spaceships going for a joyride instead of acting like a fucking army
I remember Yea Forums shitting on Rogue One so hard when it came out, when it was legitimately the only new movie that felt like Star Wars. The forced diversity shit was utterly pointless, it should have been a maximum of four characters. But other than that, it was pretty coherent and entertaining. It felt like it was scripted and shot by adults, which is exactly what NuWars doesn't feel like.
It also helps that the original script for Rogue One was penned back in the late 80s I think.
I think he's referring to the casino planet where Disney saw fit to have a Bernie Sanders moment and have aliens growling at the rebels "Grrr! You're interrupting my capitalism!"
ok so why are they in a 2d plane then
ah yes the white supremacists founded by a black womyn that recruits from any race.
why? just hyperspace ram
Armies that can only move in 2 dimensions march in a line
Hey, it was their attempt at a metaphor. Even Jew Jew said First Order were white supremacists. But then the movie has black and Asian people working as button-pushers at Evil Base 1 or whatever, because muh diversity.

none of this stuff is really relevant given what actually happened which is they wanted to do a remake, but in universe so they had to just say, 'snap, the old movie's initial conditions is back again'. the same events needed to play out with the same premise.
(until they changed their tack with the second and third films for some reason)
>blowing up Alderaan was justified since it's like blowing up a hut to in Tatoiine to combat sand people
Alderaan wasn't destroyed to combat rebels. It was blown up to pressure Leia and because it was a convenient way to demonstrate the power of the death star. It's more like the US blowing up the twin towers to show the taliban they mean business.
3D formations in space look thousand times cooler than 2d formations.
You also get to have the higher number of ships on the screen creating a better sense of density and scale.
>resistance sends out a bunch of $5 hyperspeed drones and oneshots every Death Star destroyer
Oh sweetie Palpatine you didn't hear? The future turned female in the last 30 years. Your incel technology is irrelevant now. Even your force powers are irrelevant now.
I don't mind the diverse cast, it's just there's too many supposedly important characters for me to care about all of them when they die
Because the ships are nazis (bad guys)
no, they would just look like an eye-straining mess since you can't see depth and it's just going to be all on top of itself. i don't know what you're thinking of but for a human to make sense of it it needs to actually be 2D like this which is just a vertical plane
it would look disgusting if there was another plane behind that one
>Let the past die; kill it if you have to
like this i mean. there's front view of some star wars ships somewhere where they are above and beside each other but you'll find they're all at the same distance, just another plane
the death star is an allegory for the atom bomb.
the empire in star wars are meant to be america.

Do you think they ever noticed the irony in having a character say that in a movie that is 100% a remake of the 4 decade old original?
nuhhh nahhh i bet they never thought about it. you know movies, they just start filming the actors one day and see what happens
bbuuuhhh duuhhrrr
better be a kind of parade, then.
Your post is honestly incoherent to me, 3d formations in space have been done before in just about every anime and video game ever and they look perfectly fine.
Single line in space is retarded.
Nope. Too busy cribbing ideas from Legends to notice.
N-no this is really cool. You just don't get it. You have to be a sexist racist manbaby not to understand how epic death stars mounted on a fleet of star destroyers is
Women can't compete with the big brain ideas of EU writers that also write DND shit. They didn't properly understand what exactly they were throwing away when they fucked over the EU and retconned it with legends.
Is there a single Star Wars movie that doesn't have some doomsday weapon that needs to be destroyed?
oh your're the redard that keeps calling a plane a 'single line'? dude imagine a ship, and one behind it, one behind that. That's a single line. that's not what's in op, which is a 2D plane.
Your pic is not a 3d formation either it's basically ad hoc blobs and it carries zero percent of the menace of a formation (i.e. regularity)
show me a fucking screenshot of a 3D formation that looks good, go on
no it's the only plot they can make
SHEEEEEEEV
couldn't one cruiser going at hyperdrive just suicide into the fleet and take out like 50% of it instantly?
Empire strikes back. Prequels for the most part.

Before disney, Sheev wasn't the good guy. He plunged the galaxy into civil war so that he could obtain power and killed millions of innocent people. That was before he killed billions of innocents on Alderan.
Disney wars makes him kind of justified though
Phantom menace?
what if palpatine posseses rey and takes her body
Why didn't Luke just hyperdrive into the death star?
and then masturbates
Calling it now:
This fleet is going to do absolutely nothing. There will be a scene where it apporaches a position and gets obliterated in a few seconds because of muh hyperspace.
Death star worker union feared for their jobs and pressured Palpatine to build more death stars instead
Any chances it could simply be a spot where they've parked all the old Star Destroyers after the fall of the empire?
Wouldn't the FO simply go to the junkyard and add these canons to them be more plausible than building all of them
Perhaps the droid control ship could be seen as the big super weapon to be destroyed
>because of muh hyperspace
I guarantee this will not happen. The hyperspace attack from TLJ wasn't just the biggest fuckup that Rian did to the movie, it was the biggest fuckup anyone did in any of the movies. They're never going to acknowledge it happened ever again because it just causes so many plot holes.
i remember trying to look up interesting lore about the new setting.
Theres supposed to be an off limits zone or another galaxy even and they have special aliens from that place that can navigate it.
Thats where the ships are from.
But he was? he was planing to make a big and strong empire to stop the yuuzhang vongs
So does sheev have a private starforge or what? Oh wait never mind a starforge doesn't exist that stuff isn't canon.
No, I want JJ to go in on it completely. Treat it like this revolutionary new maneuver that nobody ever thought of, and that Holdo is a military genius.
Daily reminder that The Force Unleashed and most of the expanded universe was canon until the mouse took over.
the prequels and empire strike back
Holy shit i just watched the Holdo hyperspace scene for the first time.
It's like a comedy skit. Her experssions are hilarious
tfw a single scene renders 50% of the combat from 7 movies entirely useless.
literally this, I want this trainwreck to go full retard
Can’t wait for the next Star Wars Anthology movie: General Holdo: The battle of Chyron belt. It’s going to be so good.
Oh fuck no, ROTJ indeed
Why are they called Star Destroyers when they only destroy planets?
that's not how the EU tiers of canon worked
In all fairness though how does hyperspace ramming not make sense?
Nobody, in thousands of years of space combat, has ever thought to do it? Like I said, plot holes.
hyperspace it's another dimension
It is not about making sense or not. After this scene you can ask in every single space battle "Why don't they just hyperspace?". You don't even need ships at this point just put everything needed to hyperspace in a remote controlled ship an launch it at the enemy.
Just wondering: Would the whole hyperspace thing make more sense if they would have shown Holdo somehow deactivating the hyperspace navigation computer?
And how the fuck would Han go into hyperspace through fucking doors? Nothing makes sense
In universe, because hyperspace in Star Wars was never about "going really fast" like Rian thought. It has always meant slipping into a shortcut corridor through space, like folding a piece of paper to touch itself.
Out of the movie, it's fucking stupid because that one tactic invalidates every single other military tactic, and showing that it is possible raises the question of why we have never seen it before.
Because without an overwhelming force to conquer, the story of plucky underdogs winning through hope and love loses all of its meaning and worth to a lesson-learning audience.
Same reasons Nazi's still rule the world after three Wolfenstein games. If you have no one oppressing you, you can't become The Hero We Need Right Now.
Literally whos?
The rebels are niggers and the empire is the white man.
Vongs
>Would the whole hyperspace thing make more sense if they would have shown Holdo somehow deactivating the hyperspace navigation computer?
Not really, for reasons that have already been explained. One, it's literally not possible to weaponize hyperspace (or at least it wasn't before this movie), and two, that doesn't address the plot hole of why every space battle isn't fought this way.
>how the fuck would Han go into hyperspace through fucking doors
You mean the hangar in 7? That's actually fine, what wasn't fine was him arriving inside a planet's atmosphere. Hyperspace isn't supposed to work t0/from a gravity well, like a planet. JJ fucked up too, but not nearly as bad as Rian.
Star System maybe
it doesn't make sense in the way starwars portrays it because the ship slips into another dimension to take a shortcut from point a to b, the ship isn't moving any faster than it normally would, even if the starwars universe was using tech that allowed ships to move faster than light they'd have to convert the ships into a state of no mass so it wouldn't interact with the physical universe anyway so the use of it in kinetic warfare also doesn't work
This.
Just have protocol droids pilot ships and chaos dunk them from across the galaxy.
Thanks Rian Johnson.
i realise that but it still makes sense im not saying the scene is right.
A ship going really fast in one direction will crash into whatever it hits. Its pretty standard scifi ship stuff.
"Traveling through hyperspace ain't like dusting crops, boy! Without precise calculations we could fly right through a star or bounce too close to a supernova, and that'd end your trip real quick, wouldn't it?"
―Han Solo, to Luke Skywalker[src]
No it wasnt it was going really fast to get into hyperspace and travel over a shorter time.
What gaem?
How many planets does he need destroyed?
Isn’t this a ripoff of Kotor and the Dark Empire comic?
>it was going really fast to get into hyperspace
It literally wasn't. Read some more lore material if you want a full explanation.
It does make no sense because hyperspace isn't "Going really fast". Hyperspace is basically warping. The Han Solo quote means that if you exit hyperspace you can land in an unfortunate spot.
Labor droids and mining of iron asteroids could crank out capital ships like crazy.
Han was talking about when they reach their objetive they can crash if they don't do the right maths
>STAR WARS IS FUCKING DEAD
no shit, it died in 1997
Material, manpower, training, money and resources just get replenished at will. Defeat 90% of the enemy force and because the writers want it to be this way this 90% will get replenished while your losses won't. It happens because the writers want it to happen. This is why you never hear exact numbers because if a faction loses 50% of its assets in a single battle everyone would wonder why they are back at full strength in the next.
read what i said. It isnt folding space time.
Its literally go fast to get into a dimension of faster travel.
literally says through mate. Fly through a star. Hence why they have hyperspace routes.
umm Unknown Regions!!!
It's not the destroyed planets, it's the mass death giving him a dark side boner.

It's like LOTR 'why didn't the eagles fly them to mordor' but much worse
The eagles actually have an explanation but the movies don't explain it well enough.
The eagles don't want to get involved in conflicts and the ring could have corrupted them. Frodo and Faramir were the only ones who could have carried the ring to Mordor.
why din they hyperspace the dethsta
>leads to the senate agreeing to change the political system (again, all in accordance with the law),
but it wasn't, it was clearly an illegal power grab at that point
Wait, why Faramir?
Well, to be fair Star Wars takes place a long time before WWII, their tactics were primitive.
In the books he is described as having a pure heart so the ring would have no effect on him. Faramir was actually a better candidate for carrying the ring than Frodo. Unfortunately Boromir got sent to the Fellowship instead and simply looking at the ring corrupted him.
Solo?
I am sure there is also an explanation in some EU book/comic/whatever for hyperspace ramming if you search long enough. It still feels silly and weird as they're many ways working around the corruption thing, in particular, as they're already shown to transport them a huge distance. Also the no involvement in conflict policy seems retarded as mordor winning would at some point doom them as well.
But Solo was about destroying Disney's finances.
Because they won the popular vote
Disney's newest starwars attraction, Galaxy's Edge, is selling starwars themed foods now
>Star Destroyers with Death Star tech mounted on them,
So it's basically just the Eclipse from the EU, but like hundreds of them?
Far, far worse.
It was done in episode 3 and it was fucking fine. Smooth horizontal planes are satisfying to our sense of symmetry but seem too perfect and unnatural. You dont see formations like that in real life excepting for parades and such.
Nailed it.
seeing these child actors shill these $25 drinks to little kids is really something on all these commercials
oh come on you are being a faggot, obviously he means a single plane.
Racist ableist misogynist white supremacist incel. Have sex.
You are incorrect on all fronts.
looks like shit
Prices are fucking expensive, but what else can you expect?
thats the reason why the first order is basically empire 2.0 it doesnt explain the inconsequential nature of all the combat in the Sequels. There are no stakes if the enemy can never suffer serious defeat. Even the lame "just build a second death star" plot in the OT justifies itself by saying that it took the empire 3-5 years to build the new one, and it wasnt even finished
its a more dressed up diner meal
for example the "Fried Endorian Tip-Yip" is just a fried chicken tendie on mashed potato
Nice for you, but nobody cares about EU lore explanations in particular not in SW. It's idiotic to expect that obvious plot holes are ok if they're hamfisted ( 'fixed' ) with some retarded 'explanation' in some obscure EU reference/book/head canon. That said, I care too little to argue either about SW or LOTR so be happy with your headcanon.
It makes sense in LOTR. Sauron's Eye is gonna see giant, heaven sent eagles coming in and landing near Mt. Doom with a bunch of people on them and put two and two together that they have the ring and are going to destroy it. He would have sent legions into the mountain to stop them and they would have failed to destroy the ring and keep it away from Sauron. Gathering an army to hold off his armies was straight up a distraction to keep Sauron focused on the war effort and not the ring.
This.
If you never display proper numbers you can pull them out of thin air. Just like most of the Dothraki getting wiped out at Winterfell and somehow half of them are alive and able to fight in the next episode.
Just like Stannis losing over 80% of his forces just because a few thousand died at King's Landing.
>steamed prawns
why do people do this
WHY DID RLM MEDIA HAVE TO MAKE HIS VIDEO....WHY...HIS VIDEO KILLED STAR WARS.
>It still feels silly and weird as they're many ways working around the corruption thing, in particular, as they're already shown to transport them a huge distance.
Never with the ring, they didn't.
>Also the no involvement in conflict policy seems retarded as mordor winning would at some point doom them as well.
The "non involvement policy" comes from the god that they are affiliated with. Said God can't interfere with the ring war, and neither can his "underlings", therefore, the eagles can't do anything.
Oh well.
because gravity wells (including stars) pull you out of hyperspace brainlet. so if you fly through or close enough to a star you drop out of hyperspace and die. you could argue that our theories are a convenient retcon but this is the only way hyperspace makes sense in universe pre-TLJ.
its not steamed
its 'chilled shrimp', aka precooked packaged shrimp/prawn that they defrosted.
The starforge
His pure heart allowed him to reject carrying the ring because he knew its power was beyond him (ie it would corrupt him) aktshually
user also forgot to mention that the Eagles would be spotted once they crossed into Morder if not earlier, and then Sauron would have increased his defence of Mount Doom.
Eve online
You obviously don't know what headcanon is, if you use it on official lore, dipshit.
I’m saying you’re incorrect about there being an explanation in the EU as well as about there being *no* explanation for the Eagles.
The way LotR handles the One Ring is self-consistent even if you’ve never read the books. Gollum was in possession of the Ring for hundreds of years for him to reach the state we see him in by the time of the story. Frodo was already succumbing to its influence over the course of a few weeks/months. The difference was due to a combination of Sauron fully manifesting again in Mordor as well as Frodo taking it closer and closer to him, this increasing the power of its/his will.
>sales tax to be added
So, what was Sheev's tax policy?
1. Gather all the eagles.
2. Put Gandalf Frodo and maybe Legolas on one eagle and let the rest follow in a large distance.
3. The ring does not appear to be able to corrupt anybody out of reach, so if the first eagle gets corrupted just drop it when early signs of corruption show up. Switch to eagle no 2.
Repeat 2.-3. until you're in mordor.
Possibly, but the way everything worked out at the end with sauron conveniently sending his entire army away from the tower with the lava pit relied also on a tremendous amount of luck and stupidity (cough deus ex cough). So taking advantage of the eagles a bit more wouldn't be a bad idea. If you're concerned about sauron just drop them a bit earlier if walking is stealthier than flying.
Not just in Star Wars, but literally dozens, if not hundreds of sci-fi stories.
It's also just boring since they look like regular star destroyers. Also the Eclipse couldn't destroy planets.
This. I would laugh so fucking hard if this happened.
Reminder that nothing in the OT or ST can come close to the kino of this scene
hooktube.com
Also for all you "muh borken heart" brainlets, this scene very obviously shows that Vader drained Padme to survive.
30 years is a long time to stockpile stuff around.
also those look like old imperial star destroyers with huge belly cannons fitted on them, so probably they hi them when the empire fell and slowly refitted them, ez.
Those “eagles” are lesser Maiar. If one shows “early signs” of corruption, you’re too late.
>just drop it when early signs of corruption show up
Remember that Boromir just looked at it once and he got corrupted. You can not pass the ring around like a hot potato which is the reason Frodo didn't give Sam the ring when he asked for it. Mordor would also assemble its forces around Mount Doom because the eagles would get spotted from a huge distance. Have fun dealing with Nazguls, 100000 archers and catapults.
APOLOGIZE TO GEORGE

Yeah, I bet Sauron won't spot several dozen or so giant, divine eagles (who just happen to be his enemies) forming a huge swarm and making a bee-line towards Mt. Doom.
And given that the Ring can corrupt beings immediately, I can't imagine anything going wrong. Galadriel and Gandalf were *afraid* to touch the Ring, since it would have corrupted them pretty much on the spot. Hell, Galadriel got almost currupted just looking at the damned thing.
And again: The eagles aren't allowed to interfere. Picking up Gandalf at Isengard and picking up the Hobbits once they were done was the full extend of what they even could do.

This. Only Rogue One looked good, and even then that's because the space battle at the end was supposedly trying to capture the OT battle look. TFA and TLJ looked like dogshit, especially TFA. That film looked Avengers levels of bad with their tv budget look. Not to mention the awful dutch angle and tracking shot of Kylo Ren's entrance on Takodana, and the helicopter shot at the end of the film. I mean, holy shit. I've seen tons of drone footages of that same island in Ireland that looked 100% better on YouTube and Facebook.
I think it's because they bet on Star Wars fans being the dumbest fucking morons that will gobble up anything with the Star Wars brand.
They're not wrong
It pains me to say it but I want to be her pusyslave
Just face it that the movies handled that bit very bad, dunno about the books also don't care that much as LOTR isnt that interesting to me.
>Eagles arent allowed to interfere because of muh gods
But they already did, duh. So that argument falls into place a little bit too convenient (bad writing).
>Eagles may be corrupted.
Then why use them at all? Because Jackson wrote himself into a corner and needed a deux ex moment? Why didn't saruman see the eagles (enemies of mordor) coming from afar to save Gandalf but when they're used to fly them to mordor it's automatically given that sauron sees them?
>Muh Sauron big army
The alternative plot line relies in rotk as well on the stupidity of sauron. You would expect the 10000 orcs Nazguls and what not to show up as well when they go walking, in particular, as it is shown that sauron saw frodo heading for the tower/lava pit.
Humans barely fly airliners except on take off or landing and even landing can be done automatically. So you are saying a starship that can destroy planets cannot have autopilot?

NuWars is written by people who don't like war movies (and have no concept of things like chain of command, supply lines, tactics, etc) and who have a deep disdain for blue-collar jobs like manufacturing (because those people vote Trump and eat red meat).
This is why in the Disney universe, soldiers just do what they like regardless of their orders (because hanging out with your friends and being "free" is better than doing the lame chores that your mom tells you to do), and why enormous feats of engineering and manufacturing just show up already packaged and ready to go whenever the plot requires it (because they like getting new iPhones but have no idea how the rare earth metals are mined or how much of an established base is required to produce a good).
tl;dr the new movies are made by people who have never had a labor-intensive job and have never lived outside of a major city, and feel that they should be given a living wage just for existing.
>you know movies, they just start filming the actors one day and see what happens
Isn't that literally how the Disney Wars movies were produced?
This
The guy looks more feminine than the girl
GEORGE IM SORRY
I DIDNT KNOW
let's wait until the Russo Brothers trilogy and the D&D trilogy and the Rian Johnson trilogy are completed until we pass judgement
Get ready for Disney to ruin the Star Forge as well.
The prequels are pure fuxking kino and if u dont understand this ur a brainlet
Imagine caring about Disney Star Wars.
This
Anything after Disney bought sw isnt canon
I think Sheeve manipulating the entire Galaxy so easily was pretty fucking stupid and lazy, but at least the Prequels didn't operate on the level of sheer anti-logic these Sequel movies depend on.
You can't convince me Yamato isn't gay. It's a goddamn boat in space. A fucking boat.
>I think Sheeve manipulating the entire Galaxy so easily
It wasnt as ”easy” as u think
If u check the lore of the prequels ull see that its pretty fucking kino

have sex
Can't argue with that. Rogue One felt like it actually tried to be Star Wars. The kino cinematography helped a ton. Those Death Star shots are amazing.
Disney made coca cola canon, what the fuck were you expecting?
I would think by the design of the Star Destroyers, those have probably simply been parked in a far corner of the galaxy since he fall of the empire.
All the FO had to do is find them and equip them with that new canon.
George feels like Star Wars should always be pushing conventions or at least be trying something new. It's why he doesn't like the EP 7 retread but likes the EP 8 trashfire.
>star wars fans
those are ambassadors though they make money shilling it
>relativistic weapons in Star Wars
"No!"
It sounds more like KK's stupid "organic" approach to Star Wars let JJ grandfather in the blandest galactic backstory of all time to set up his Rebels vs Empire photocopy scenario. KK is guilty of saying yes to that shit and Disney is guilty of putting her in charge.
And then gave him The Jungle Book and The Lion King? Yeah, no...
Nope, Faramir's pure heart meant he would not pick it up if he saw it on the side of the road, as per his own words. However, if it was thrust on him by the council, because of his natural contentedness, he would have been a great ring bearer on par with or exceeding Frodo. We see this time and time again in the book. How you take the ring, and how simple/humble you are has a huge affect on how or if it can get to you.
Peter Jackson turned it into a weird mind control device. In addition to having adding general misanthropy that opposes the book.
The only reason Faramir would fall short of Frodo is that he is too big a figure and too well known for a stealth mission.
Also the real reason the eagles didn't fly the ring to Mordor is they would be spotted immediately and die before they even got close. Time was never an issue for the fellowship, and they even take month long breaks in the books. Stealth was key.
And Lucas made Hoth Chocolate canon...
>Hoth chocolate was a variant of hot chocolate containing Tauntaun milk, and a number of different spices mixed with cocoa and boiling water. Hoth chocolate was associated with the Wookiee Life Day.
That was a bullshit part of the movie. Setting the animals free and not the slaves. That's bullshit, plain and simple.
>and feel that they should be given a living wage just for existing.
#YangGang is a bunch of /pol/-lite dorks that think meme magic is real.
>no concept of things like chain of command, supply lines, tactics, etc
sci-fi never really does. it's usually just "dude droids lmao"
given that this is JJ, there may be a literal Mystery Box involved.
Based. Imagine being too autistic too see pottery even when it slaps you right in the face
Why are all socialists fat as fuck?
Fuck you buddy, I'm blue collar and hate that rich faggot. If you're broke and support that richfag, youre a cuck. Clearly, somwonw who made money off of fucking over poor people from time to time isn't suddenly gonna change shit to help the poor.
bread has a lot of carbs.
I feel pretty comfortable stating that a single man manipulating the entire galaxy with such perfection is retarded. I get that it's a political statement from George, but the truth is that it would have made a lot more sense for Palpatine to have been part of a faction (that he later purges to consolidate power) and only been taking advantage of larger events beyond his control, kind of like how every dictator rides into power.
>"Death Star Destroyers" which appear to be exactly what they sound like
They sound like something that can destroy a death star. So, X-wings?
that is the least star-wars-looking shot i've ever seen
Yesss lad
>It seems in your anger, you killed her
fucking based, palpatine could forsee shit the dude's a powerful motherfucker
They look like clones of one another. A Bernie gene, I guess. Ugly fuckers.
this is just retarded power creep, a sign of truly juvenile writing
Just keep ramping up the threat by a factor of 10 even though it makes no sense. Next it will be a GAJILLION death stars with the capability of destroying the entire galaxy
Of course the entire threat is meaningless when we know the heroes are just going to deus ex machina them out of existence
>Hyperspace Ram exists
So why this will be a problem for "the resistance"? Just kamikaze x-wings into these and everything will be fine.
>What if the Death Star.... was a cube?
>sci-fi never really does
Yeah, remember how the second Death Star just appeared completely finished and ready to go in RotJ
Heck, they should have made a dozen!
What? Prices are reasonable. Drinks are the same as Starbucks.
The republic doesent have political parties
They have senators
And sheev managed to do it thanks to not only orchestrating a war but also being a sith lord
Yang isn't the only one promising millennials money for free.
Yeah okay buddy stop larping
>Johnson didn't care about entertainment, he wanted to make 'art'.
the last Jedi was a good movie
problem is there was never anything story wise to justify these movies existence. Even the prequels at least gave background to an existing story, the sequels had to create it's own reason to exist as the OT already had a conclusion.
But JJ never did that, instead they just rehashed ANH for the nostalgia bucks (which all the normies took hook line and sinker) and left giving the sequels an actual reason to exist to RJ who promptly fucked it all up.
Now they get JJ back to try and reel it back in, but it looks like it will just be more nostalgia pandering (palpatine, C3-PO) and the same "bigger is better" retarded mentality that gave us the star killer or whatever the fuck it was in TFA.
>first Death Star is under construction at the end of Episode III
>first Death Star isn't fully operational until 20 years later when the Jedi are an ancient religion and nobody knows about the Force anymore
>4 years later, second Death Star is mostly finished, is fully operational, and even bigger
Fuck off retard.
There's so many layers of pottery. Palpatine gave Padme the necklace that's prominently displayed. Vader being entombed in the suit as Padme is cremated.
>I felt her, she was alive
>that sly chuckle from Palpatine
Vader killed her through their strong bond and Palpatine knew that was the secret to extending YOUR OWN life. That's why he shanked Plageuis in his sleep, he was so beneath him as to not even be an obstacle to be dominated.
You never see the back of the second death star
So when do they find earth?
you're a stupid faggot for thinking TLJ is anything approaching decent
literally EVERYTHING about it is fucking awful
it legitimately might be the BIGGEST fuckup in movie history
Same reason airplanes do, honestly this is the least retarded part
they probably learned a shit ton during the building phase of the 1st one that making a 2nd, even if it was larger, was much more efficient - it's like a REALLY big car, first cars took 12 hours to assemble and the assembly line dropped it to 2 1/2 according to google
> a taste of takodana
>clouds and lightning in space
What did they mean by this?
Power grab yes, illegal no. The senate voted for it. The will of the people chose a dictator. Just like Caesar in rome
I'll just go back to playing swtor.
>Eagles arent allowed to interfere because of muh gods
>But they already did, duh. So that argument falls into place a little bit too convenient (bad writing).
These eagles are pretty much akin to angels and strongly affiliated with the a certain god of that setting. The reason that this god (and his "angels") can'ti interfere is the fucking reason why Sauron exists in the first place.
>Eagles may be corrupted.
>Then why use them at all? Because Jackson wrote himself into a corner and needed a deux ex moment? Why didn't saruman see the eagles (enemies of mordor) coming from afar to save Gandalf but when they're used to fly them to mordor it's automatically given that sauron sees them?
The eagles did Jack shit during the Ring war. They never carried Frodo while he was also carrying the ring. If you don't even know that, what point is there in you arguing any lore of LOTR?
They helped Gandalf escape, but they didn't help in the Ring War itself. And they only helped Gandalf rescuing the Hobbits after the Ring War was over... and they only did it, cause Gandalf himself is a millenia old demigod of that setting.
>Muh Sauron big army
>The alternative plot line relies in rotk as well on the stupidity of sauron. You would expect the 10000 orcs Nazguls and what not to show up as well when they go walking, in particular, as it is shown that sauron saw frodo heading for the tower/lava pit.
It relies on Sauron himself being so obsessed with his ring that he'd never assume at all that anyone could actually try to destroy the ring instead of using it to rule the world.
Disney literally should still had George Lucas direct them even if he wasn't the owner of the brand anymore. Fuck RLM hipsters, Lucas would've done a better job
>falling for the troll
Sheesh.
Also, you clearly have never watched Highlander 2.
Aether nigga
>having another Death Star via a Death Star planet wasn't enough
>now JJ wants a fleet of Death Star Star Destroyers
How the fuck haven't Star Wars fans realized what a hack JJ is like Trek fans have? Are Star Wars fans just that much dumber?
I think plenty of people did realize it. TFA set up didn't make sense.
The prices looked good to me but then I realized I was Canadian
>first yf 22 is being designed in 1985
>first f 22 raptor isn't fully operational until 20 years later
>4 years later over 100 raptors are fully operational.
Seems about right.
>Are Star Wars fans just that much dumber
I wish this Trek V Star Wars shit will end
I like them both but Star Trek fans seem to be more aggressive when it comes to this fucking shit.
not as op as slapping a hyperdrive on a meteoroid
Zahn did, that was in the first Thrawn book. The difference is that hot chocolate isn't a brand name product you imbecile.
True. I am... er... used to be a fan of both. After the prequels I soured on Star Wars fandom. Somehow I found it easier to ignore the bad Trek stuff and stayed a fan of Trek longer.
I guess I still love the old stuff, but I can't be bothered with either franchise anymore.
its so fucking tiresome
second death star was already pushing it in the original trilogy
its like a kid who saw star wars and is writing fanfics
>woah in the next movie there is a death star that can destroy whole system at once!
>and in the next there are MOVING death star installed on the ships!
That's it mate, now we can't really say who's smarter now can we since both franchises have been shit into the ether
>implying the Star Destroyer fleet isn't hidden in a nebula
remember, the only Star Trek JJ has seen is Wrath of Khan. so guess how Kylo's redemption scene is going to go down.
Funny. When I kept complaining that JJ Trek seemed too much like Star Wars, I never meant that JJ would be good at making Star Wars. Then fucking Disney hired that idiot.
imagine being so fundamentally unimaginative and creatively bankrupt that you rehash death star bullshit for a 4th fucking time
Post the USA bikini of park rey
