Star Wars Griefing Thread (THE RISE OF SKYWALKER SPOILERS) - Safety off

[raider of the lost wifi]

They did mention them in PT-era guides as tech that was incorporated late into the Clone Wars to boost the number of clone soldiers, but that was about it sadly.

We already had a CIS clone army before that, one they could've actually expanded on in TCW and even included the Spaarti and Khommites into. I mean heck, the show even featured Saleucami, the main location where this army was spawned, early in the show, and they could've actually turned this conflict into something way bigger on par with what was described in the Thrawn Trilogy, but nope. Saleucami just ended up being used for cheap filler and the conflicts were as small as ever in the show...

Sad thing is that the minute Zemeckis croaks they're going to be butchering his work hard. I do find it fitting how BTTF has had no remakes, sequels or no new media (outside of commercials, parodies and a meh point and click game with quality voice acting) in years yet it still has persisted in the public eye and is still just as beloved as ever, proving that Hollywood's claims that old stuff needs moronic sequels, reboots and remakes to stay relevant are a load of crap. All a good movie or franchise needs to stay relevant is to stay talked about and continue being shown on TV/streaming/whatever and get reprints. Its good appeal is enough to keep people loving it. The real reason for all these ungodly and over-milked remakes and sequels we get now is just plain old greed because new IPs don't seem to make enough money for these greedy Hollywood clowns, and killing off the old protags is a good way to completely change the IP beyond recognition while keeping the trademarked name for merchandising. Its the most shamelessly soulless and disrespectful form of movie making.

They also could have included Jabiim and Rhen Var harbor but that would go against the narrative that rebellion against globalists/the republic taking over the entire known galaxy is futile.

Jabiim even had prototype AT-AT's that looked simpler and basically the locals behaved like the neo crusaders with those separatist allied jabiimi commandos. Those specialized 4-eyed commando droids were also not nearly as dorky as the final fantasy sword carrying ones in the 3D CGI Clone wars show.

AT-XT's were also a missed opportunity and would have been more appropriate on Umbara vs the OPEN pilot seat AT-RT where you are asking someone to shoot your vulnerable meatbag underbelly as a certain droid would say.

Aside from that, there's also some animated "Animatrix" thing going on that's also mostly set in the High Republic shit and sequel era, and each episode will be animated by a different studio... What a waste of Japanese studios. Only thing to come from it so far is a single still. Its supposed to premiere this year, but nothing's been said as of yet.

I think they've announced that we're getting a preview of that on the 10th of July

Hot take, Boyaga and Ridley will both end up doing direct to video films for the remainder of their careers.

[Sarcasm]How do you people not think that a politically driven Indiana Jones film is an exciting and fun idea? [/Sarcasm]

I can't wait for the "Indiana Jones has always been political !!1!" wave of articles just because he punched an ebil yatzee and met Hitler.

I'm sure this has already been discussed a hundred pages back, but is there any news on The Mandalorian Season 3? And for that matter, of the other series like the Ahsoka and Boba Fett shows? I'm curious as to what's going on with them considering Disney seemingly shot them all in the foot with the firing of Gina Carano and what little potential The Mandalorian's story had being ruined by the Sequel Trilogy being inevitably jammed in.

Not yet. Season 3 is supposed to air after the Book of Boba Fett, so they probably have not started shooting yet. Also Pedro Pascal is starring in the HBO adaptation of TLoU so I hope it doesn't ruin the schedule.

I sure hope we will have 1980s style PSAs at the end of the movies where the characters tell us the moral of the story, so no Twitter smooth brain will be confused.

Spoiler: example

 

[The Nothingness]

Disney has now requested that Slave one have its name changed to Boba fett’s starship : https://www.jedinews.com/collecting/articles/disney-asks-for-slave-i-rename-to-boba-fetts-starship/
The reason for this is not explained but it’s very obvious that Disney thinks the mere mention of the world slave is not woke enough.

Next up, Episode I and II will be reedited so any mention of Anakin or his mother being slaves is removed and the slaver's arc in TCW fourth season will also be removed.

At least those psas were just there to fill in an government mandate, that shows aimed at children must have some educational content at a time when most children's cartoons were just toy advertisements. Now we have shitty Steven Universe psas telling kids to be aware of there racial status, and that creepy Blue's clues pride parade.

Honeslty that wouldn't be the first time that an actor has played in a blockbuster movie and end up doing just direct to video films.

They renamed Slave Leia to Hutt Slayer Leia, so I wouldn't be surprised if they edit out the word slave from all instances in the films (some biography or behind the scenes Disney book went further claiming that this was Carrie's final wish and that she hated being Slave Leia, and told Daisy Ridley to never put on a costume like that. Not sure if its true, but regardless, it makes sense for Disney to use a dead person to push their shitty pc changes and the supposed quote with Ridley was long before her death during TFA's production).

Next up, edit out the scene of Oola, Jabba's dancing slave because its demeaning to a black actress and her nipples are showing. And cease all Legends reprints featuring slaves.

Maybe Lucas did warned us about evil forces secretly ruling the world, corrupting it. lol

I have slayed the hutt many times to Carrie Fisher in her metal space bikini.
