idk why everyone seems confused at the galactic political situation in the new trilogy?

-after retun of the jedi, before TFA: the empire is destroyed, but an imperial remnant still exists and there's an off shoot of the new republic fighting it, imperial remnant builds death-star superweapon because they've been hiding for 30 years and want revenge

-during TFA: imperial remnant destroys the new republic capital planet, resistance destroys superweapon

-during TLJ: imperial remnant tries to destroy last bits of resistance, and starts invading the rest of the galaxy

pretty simple and that's all stated pretty clearly in the films

Okay, but like, it's still confusing to call them "The Resistance" when they're a vague offshoot of the current reigning government. I guess technically they were resisting the rise of the First Order terrorists? It's a bit odd.

not really? as soon as they said they were called the resistance i was like "oh ok they're like an underground resistance group"

The tech gives me a ral homeworld / Peter elson / Chris foss vibe

now i just got a boner imagining if chris foss or peter elson or other similar styled illustrators had worked on the original trilogy

There was a comic adaptation of an early version of the Star Wars script that came out in... 2014, I wanna say? It wasn't particularly good, but it was interesting enough. I think that was pretty heavily McQuarrie inspired.
