Star Wars Star Wars Discussion Thread - LET THE PAST D-! Oh, wait, nevermind

Ok that's not bad, though I think the bit with the transports should have been omitted. Not from any objection to what it shows, but because the transports blowing up is a noticeable dip in quality compared to the failed hyper-ram.

Also is it just me or is it kind of funny how close that plot point is to working fine? Think about it; the only change you really need is to have the Supremacy's shields be down for whatever reason. I mean sure that doesn't do anything about the rest of the First Order fleet but at very least the primary ram could work.

Both the Jedi and the Sith were shadows of their former selves post Rusaan disaster palpatine's empire was a childish imitation compared to that of the old sith empire, and the Army of light made the clone army look like amatures. To get an idea of what the army of light, imagine if General Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker and Rahm Kota were TYPICAL jedi generals.

Pretty much this, yes. I mean, EU Sidious* is still probably more powerful than any individual Sith of the old empire (and in terms of lightsaber skill it's debatable considering how constantly tested Sith Lords of their time were against the Jedi and each other), but if he gets branded as a heretic by the empire, there's little he can do but go to ground and work in the shadows. Ditto for the Post-Ruusan Jedi Order, which had grown not only overly dogmatic but even outright arrogant if not secular. The Sith Empire would have gone through them like a hot knife through butter, with the post-Ruusan Jedi's overly-standardized and generally-average (by Old and New Sith Wars' standards) skills with the Force and the lightsaber.

It wasn't until Luke's New Jedi Order that the Jedi really began to regain the level of power and awareness with the Force that they once had.

**Canon Sidious would probably only be as powerful as your typical Dark Councilor. Considering there are at least 12 of those at any time, and some other Sith Lords hanging around probably already have qualifications to succeed any of those 12...

Funnily enough.

In SWTOR they actually had the most recent major update have someone that is in the old Sith armor. And made fun of it.

But you can get the super diffrent armor, you just have to find it and everythint

To be fair, the EU New Jedi Order needed to work together with the Sith to defeat Abeloth. It's impossible to defeat her by drawing on only one side of the Force, as she draws on both. Hence the first alliance between Jedi and Sith in millennia since the Galactic Wars, when the Jedi and Sith banded together first against the insane and soul-broken Jedi Master and Sith Lord Revan, and then against the pseudo-Celestial Tenebrae.

The only mortal with the ability to defeat Abeloth on their own would have been Anakin himself, but that would still require him to fully tap into both the Light and the Dark Sides of the Force, just like he did on Mortis. And even then, Anakin might still end up having to pay a price for it, potentially sacrificing his Humanity to become a Celestial in full. Observe,



Note than when Anakin starts drawing on both the Light and the Dark, his voice gains an echoing quality like those of the Celestials. A fully-realized Anakin would have become what countless generations of Sith sought and which countless generations of Jedi had dismissed as impiety: a god in all but name, holding the Light in one hand, and the Dark in the other. Something the galaxy hasn't seen in tens of thousands of years, not since the Je'daii Order wielded both in balance on Tython.

I gotta say, the newest Bounty Hunter comic is really good.
We actually get to see how bad ass Bossk is as a bounty hunter, and how good he is as a hunter.
I recommend reading it.
If they had more of those in the bounty hunter comic it would be an even better series then it already is

 

[Urabrask Revealed]

And now, for the newest Sequel-related plot-holes, introduced by the Disney Darth Vader comic-series:

Spoiler: Darth Vader

was on Exogol long before the events of the ST. While there, he witnessed the clone-vaults of Snoke and Palpatine's super-star destroyer fleet. Apparently, he never thought to tell Luke, even after his death because he believed Exogol to be a dead world.

Spoiler: Snoke

is implied to be a clone of Luke, with his chopped-off hand featuring prominently in a panel.

Spoiler: So basically Palpatine

left the whole fleet in storage, even during the Battle of Endor. Sure, he might have been cocky and thought he didn't need it, but he was supposed to be a diabolic masterming. He wouldn't have left these things to chance.

Spoiler: Links to r/saltierthankrait

 

[Zachowon]

Honestly?
Still better then tje Sequal series even though it involves it.

 

[Jormungandr]

Someone re-scored the famous Tears of Joy Scene... and it fucking works. Oh man, I legitimately felt myself tearing up watching this.

This is fucking Star Wars. This scene, and especially this re-score, had more heart and soul than the entire fucking Disney War Trilogy.

So ... how did it get found in the first place? How did whoever found it get the hand but miss Anakin's lightsabre? If this was also used in the creation of Rey's dad, how does that not make her relationship with Kylo incestuous?

Stop Asking So Many Questions! 😡

Honestly I’m just finding it amusing that the more Disney Wars tries to course correct, the more contradictory and messed up (in more ways then one) it becomes. It’s like a distillation of everything wrong with Hollywood and Disney in some ways.

 

[Typhonis]

Well if the Oscars are any indication....

2019 26 million people watched.

2021 9 million people watched.

Hollywood is a dumpster fire at best. When fan productions are better than anything they come out with. Hell want an example? Look up SCP Overlord on Youtube.

Not to mention ... if the Final Order was the real big plan, why bother with the First Order? Why bother with SKB?

I confess, that’s something that’s made me scratch my head ever since the ‘Final Order’ was revealed. Also, I will never not find that name stupid. ‘The First Order’ was silly enough but made some sort of sense as a name.

 

[Navarro]

Also, lol this recanonises Luuke.

And ultimately ... why bother with DS1 and 2 in the first place?

 

[Bear Ribs]

So for the next trilogy... if the First Order and Final Order have already been used will the villains be the In-Between Order?

 

[Navarro]

It'll probably be the Vong, but lame.

 

[Zachowon]

I like what they did.
Because the comics are much better then the ST
