Malcolm Turnbeug posted:Never understood why laser swords are better than laser guns and deflect them when they’re presumably the same kind of laser. If they aren’t, why didn’t they make the guns outta the same crystals? I think one good thing the prequels got as a story telling beat was making it clear Jedi were assholes, that always felt not clear enough in the OT They aren't better, that's why nobody uses them except the extinct warrior monks

Cough Drop The Beat posted:Yeah, which is why The Last Jedi was the best-selling Blu-ray of 2018 in the US and the 31st best-selling Blu-ray ever. Because it's extremely unpopular and no one liked it at all. I'm sure that's it. Nobody buys blurays but morons who buy stuff for completeness amd people trying to peove a point Might as well talk about laserdisk sales

skasion posted:TFA still sucks. It’s carried by marketing, nostalgia drummed up by marketing, and Driver’s completely wild performance. TFA had its script thrown out immediately preproduction and was rewritten almost from scratch as filming began. It’s a series of unrelated action set pieces strung together with quips and twists. Rey has no motive, Poe contributes nothing, Finn’s only motive is to get away from the movie’s plot. Rehashing “Star Wars” wasn’t actually the worst idea of all time. Phantom Menace did it and nobody noticed because they were too busy boggling at all the weird poo poo in Phantom Menace. KOTOR did it and everyone loves KOTOR. The script is just a dog, compounded by TLJ which is a totally different breed of dog. This. TFA was such poo poo I decided to never watch a star wae again

Icochet posted:The droid army in 1 was described as "battle hardened". They were veterans. What kind of I assume they were slaughtering local militias and civilians The cases where two well trained and equipped militaries actually fight each other are extremely rare. And even thrn usually they got trained by putting down rebellions or subjugating peasants

Propitious Jerk posted:Star Wars is, at its core, a parable about how much its creators, George Lucas and Disney, hate sex. Not having sex grants you great spiritual and magickal powers. This isn't Disney's doing this is just real-lifec

super sweet best pal posted:Like I've said before, if 4-6 were a WW2 allegory, the sequels should've been a Cold War spy series with both sides having Death Stars to represent mutually assured destruction. Hairy Busey posted:And the Jedi are the commies while the New Republic is America
