CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK posted:But they were in the hardcore ARMOR ALWAYS ON cult. So why would they willingly toss away their armor? Religious doctrine can only take morale so far. When enough of your buddies are dead and things look pretty bleak, that "I have to get the hell out of here" voice gets in anyone's head.

Jerusalem posted:Just put Benoit Blanc into a Star Wars movie and don't explain anything, he's just there and solving a crime involving a bunch of eccentric Imperial or Republic assholes or something. Honestly one of the best ways to make a Star Wars thing is to take some stock genre and set it in the Star Wars universe. That's practically what it's made for.

I would go so far as to say the Armorer knew mando was going to have a lot of Imperial heat so she played up how many were gone. She knew he would draw the heat off entirely with the Imperials

GoutPatrol posted:If you want to bring back Luke or Han, couldn't you first have an end season teaser with a low-res hologram CG model with their voice, and see what the audience response is, and then move from there in the new season? I'm pretty certain whoever it might be won't actually be there in anything more than a teaser scene to hype the next season but it's probably not going to be Han.

Isometric Bacon posted:Fun thought exercise. How could this show (realistically) jump the shark? That's a tough one. Last year I said I'd be out if they really brought in Ashoka, but now I'm rooting for her to get a spin off show. So with reservation I'll say, A: If they bring in the annoying kid from Rebels I'm probably out, but they may surprise me again. B: If they bring in Luke I might be out. B.2: If they bring in Luke and he's not played by Mark Hamill (De-aged or otherwise) I'm 100% out. edit: Also this, piL posted:Life day special. Unless they digitally resurrect Bea Arthur.

So with reservation I'll say, I absolutely get where you're coming from on the Luke issue, and I love all of the original trilogy cast. If they wanted to feature Luke on an animated show and couldn't get Hamill in for that I'd be up in arms about that. But man, reading about characters like Luke, Han, and Leia getting into all kinds of crazy Star Wars adventures in the EU books was so much fun that I want to capture that magic again. Even with the dour state of things in the sequel trilogy, there's at minimum a solid 10-15 years of Star Wars time where the OT crew could really be mixing things up, and now that the live action Star Wars T.V. show bubble that people were so uncertain about has been completely burst I'm ready for them to flood the market with shows and characters that I'd love to see doing their thing at various points in the Star Wars timeline. Give me a Star Wars political thriller with Leia in the New Republic government, and the First Order beginning to gain power behind the scenes. Give me a fun Rogue Squadron show with rad dogfights against various imperial holdouts and space pirates. Definitely give me the show featuring Ahsoka, Ezra, and Thrawn that they'd be fools not to make now that they've teased it.

Best part of that was having Palpatine being openly cackling evil towards Ezra when he thought he (Palpatine) finally had the macguffin, and then the moment he realized he didn't suddenly pretending to be a kindly old man and fully expecting Ezra to completely be tricked and give it to him (which to be fair he almost did!)

teagone posted:I haven't played enough to judge Cal as a character, but I will just mention again, that the main character being yet another white dude really killed any interest I had in Fallen Order. Doesn't matter if the character is super generic as they come, give me a character to play as that isn't just another white guy please. Thanks. Yeah I feel like some posters are missing the point of what I was trying to say. I don’t think POC only deserve boring self-insert blank slate characters. I’m just saying if you’re going to make a movie/TV show/video game with a blank self-insert, at least make them more diverse than “the functional default for all media made before 1975”. I would love it if every character had personality and flair and pathos and idiosyncracies, but in the absence of any of that, minority fans deserve better than every new protagonist being created for the franchise looking exactly the same as Mark Hamill or Daisy Ridley. BrotherJayne posted:... he's a stuttering, eye contact avoiding, hunch shouldered manlet with an underbite LMAO you keep conflating “badly designed and improperly rigged 3D model” with “character design” and it’s very funny. If you look at concept art he wasn’t supposed to be any of those things, but in game he looks EXACTLY like Sid from Toy Story. Isometric Bacon posted:Fun thought exercise. How could this show (realistically) jump the shark? Also this “Poe was a drug dealer” stuff is coming to you from the same franchise where Lando, the only black dude in the entire universe, exists only to double cross Han Solo and then steal all of his clothes.

Stormtroopers being utterly loving useless at all times irritates me. I know they’ve always been poo poo but man they might as well be those lovely prequel paper droids for all the tension they add to any scene. There’s never any doubt that the main characters will just be totally immune to them. Their retreat made no sense in the context of them not making any progress at any point from the moment they touched down. I mean seeing chub Boba go medieval on some of them was enjoyable but there’s zero catharsis in it, it’s just rote. Also what’s up with them being totally unable to hit Fennec at all, then as soon as Mando is involved they’re plinking of his armour like they’re using an aimbot. Season 1 felt a lot less episodic, until the last couple of episodes this season might as well have been The A-Team.. In Space!

Can a lore nerd explain to me why the blue butterflies are indicative of an Anakin Skywalker point of contact because if that’s the case I feel like that really strengthens the fan theory that baby Yoda and Anakin Skywalker are the exact same age and linked through the force.

There’s a scene in the Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith comic where he sees glowy blue butterflies while meditating. Seems more to me like it’s a generic Force-as-life-essence thing than specific to Vader though.
