I hope both Force users bite it at the hands of Vader but not getting my hopes up. I guess they could pull some Corran Horn/Kyle Katarn bullshit and say they were around and active but just happened to miss each other and then have them join the academy after the war is won. You could also look at it from the point of view that being a Jedi was never necessarily a prerequisite to take down the Sith, or at least not the main one. Jedi helps, but you also have to be the Chosen One. So just because you're a Jedi doesn't automatically mean you have a snowball's chance in hell of taking on the Empire and winning, thus why Yoda, Obi-wan, Kanan, Ezra, Ashoka, and everybody else so far have been laying low while the Empire has existed for 20 years. So it doesn't really hurt the narrative that Kanan and Ezra are running around any more than it hurts that Obi-wan and Yoda are. You can even point to the fact that Ezra is there with Obi-wan on Tattooine and Obi-wan knows he's force sensitive but tells him to get lost in spite of it.

Cross-Section posted:Trivia gallery confirming that the ore crawler was indeed directly inspired by the World Devastators from DE, but also that the Indiana Jones references go even deeper than I noticed: They really nailed the visual language of Indy fights, which is I guess "guy looks exasperated at how whooped his rear end is getting by a bigger opponent but hangs in anyway." You can tell someone is apeing something well when you can spot the reference without being told. Love how Filoni is all-in on incorporating old stuff from canon. Lothal kinda feels like a stand-in for Dantooine with the grassy plains and the forgotten Jedi Temple. I wonder if it was ever intended to be Dantooine.

jivjov posted:Under the Story Group, everything is equally canonical (unless it's a video game, or explicitly designated non canon; so the plot line of then Battlefront 2 campaign is canon, the multiplayer scenarios aren't, etc) They're all equally canonical, in that they're all non-canonical because they were all released after George Lucas walked away from the franchise.

jivjov posted:That's...not accurate. The Story Group is in charge of the continuity now. All the stuff I listed is also as canonical as A New Hope, Attack of the Clones, etc. Nope.

twistedmentat posted:Man, TV audiences have become really bloodthristy, thinking a show aimed at kids should basically be killing everyone left right and center. Is this what Game of Thrones and Lost have done to viewers? Hell, it's what the Disney Star Wars movies have done to viewers. Look at Rogue One. Every main character from the original trilogy with the exception of Chewbacca and the droids has been or will be killed off. Filoni is on the right track: Star Wars is not about brutal realism. It's a fairytale where everything works out in the end, the bad guys are beaten (with bumps along the way), and everyone lives happily ever after. One of the greatest sins of these sequels is breaking from that and invalidating those characters arcs. Han and Leia? Got a space divorce. Luke? Tried to murder the son of his sister and best friend for -reasons- then hosed off to live on a space island as a bitter hermit for 30 years. It's character assassination on several levels. We don't need complexity and bittersweet endings in these things. They're for children. They're supposed to be hopeful. Not everyone needs to be a tragic hero making The Ultimate Sacrifice™.

Adult Sabine's character model looked really weird to me. Her head looked all emaciated or dehydrated or something.

Even after jumping to hyperspace with the windows open which I assume should be fatal, isn't the entire rest of the crew of that ISD (which should be in the like, thousands) still aboard? I mean I shouldn't nitpick really, I love the idea of Gillian's Island with Ezra as Gilligan and Thrawn as the skipper.

TheCenturion posted:When Yoda went into to confront Palp in ROTS, and clowned a pair of guards in Palp's office, weren't they in the red at that point? Am I imagining things, or didn't the Senate Guards get replaced with the Imperial Guards because one of the Senate Guards caught on to Palpatine and tried to kill him?
