Is this /co/'s official fetish or something?
Could this edition BE anymore giant?
>>79187634
I'm fine with having the armor not associated with just Jango and Boba.
>>79188025
I vaguely recall finding Maul cool as a kid because of his looks and saber.
>>79188864
Offshoots of fetish for dominant women (giantess, femdom, /ss/, pegging, etc.), yes. You could make the case that would be /co/'s primary fetish.
>>79188806
We literally already had this shit thread, fuck off already.
>>79188864
>/co/'s official fetish or something?
No, it's just some idiot that spams this shit constantly. We had the exact same thing last week. He's just doing it for the luz. Also /co/s fetish might be short-stacks.
Leia says to Ezra:
>That was impressive...
>Mostly
Literally Vader.
>>79188865
We can sure try.
>>79188932
Sucks that Leia had more chemistry with Ezra in one scene than Sabine had in the entire show so far.
>>79188864
Basically. Giantess threads were common here before /aco/
>>79188932
How was that episode, I missed it and have shitty internet, so I can't download it?
Was this the most badass villain introduction in Star Wars?

>that intimidating shuttle landing
>that Kylo Ren theme
>that dialogue
>that use of the force
>>79188927
>Also /co/s fetish might be short-stacks.
I see we have a tourist here. Go back to /tv/ with the rest of your scum.
>>79188968
It was a solid OK
>>79188968
Average, aside from Leia appearing it doesn't have that much going for it
>>79188976
Can you fuck off already or talk about the fucking show?
I'm sick of these TFA shitposters.
>>79188914I actually kind of like giantess for thought of dominating one.
>>79188968
Pretty boring.
>>79188976
Honestly, Season 1 Inquisitor. I fucking loved his first appearance when he greets Ezra and Kanan in the prison cell and calmly, ruthlessly curbstomps Kanan while lecturing Ezra about the Dark Side. Perfect establishing scene. Sad he didn't survive the season.
>>79189003
Says the shitposter.
>>79189008
So you have a small dick? Sounds like you need to overcompensate. I bet you think choking girls is hot too.
>>79189003
TELL
>>79188976
>Was this the most badass villain introduction in Star Wars?
Darth Vader's. Now fuck off back to /tv/, no oine cares about your whiny bitch Kylo.
>>79188976
It's pretty damn awesome, but Vader's entrance in ANH pretty much invented the cool villain introduction and can't really be beat. I absolutely love that scene though.
>>79189003
not him, we've been using this general to talk about more than just rebels for years now.
TFA is part of star wars
>>79189003
This has always been SW general, you cunt.
>>79188968
Pretty good.
>>79188968
Eh. This season is off to a mediocre start, just like all the others.
>>79189070
We're halfway through the season already, man.
>>79188968
Pretty good, the best part was when Leia's ships got booted like she didn't pay several parking tickets. Made me laugh.
>>79189015
>tfw we won't see starvipers in the mando episode
>>79189003
Rebels is shit, these threads are just a Star Wars general and have been used as such from the start. You're the shitposter here.
>>79189066
SW General, not shit general.
Can we talk about GOOD Star Wars?
>>79189058
You bet you like capeshit villains, faggot.
>>79189037
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT6Sd0qfR-Y
Good taste anon. Vader in ANH remains my favorite villain intro, but this was a great episode.
>>79189104
Such a thing exists?
>>79189091
Who cares at this point? The show is so boring, it's hard to keep track.
The biggest part of the episode for me was small but telling. When Ezra jumped up and latched onto the stormie and starting beating his shit in. Even Kanan was surprised by his action there, definitely telling of his dark side slippage.
>>79189037
>Sad he didn't survive the season.
That was a waste and I wished he did live a little longer. The other Inquisitors aren't that interesting.
>>79189104
But TFA is good. Go back to /tv/
>>79189126
Nice one.
>>79188987
>Gotta make sure they recognize her when her family comes back.
It was how young Rey was just a smaller version of current Rey. I wonder if maybe the vision was...blurring her past and present self? Sounds like the kind of thing the Force tends to do.
But the real reason is JJ felt people were too stupid to recognize babby Rey otherwise.
>>79189015
You're missing the second 'n' in that filename bro.
>>79188976
>Kylo
>villain
nah. But I'm afraid they will turn him into Vader in the next movie and if Rey turns out to be a Skywalker he will die. Pretty meh desu.
>>79189146
Sorry. Couldn't resist.
Is Filoni gay?
>>79189141
But it's not.
>>79189141
>But TFA is good.
Not as good as it's predecessors.
>>79189103
>Rebels is shit
hello, tourist
>>79189132
Yes, he's using anger too much in his combat and taking things personally. This will not bode well for him in the future.
>>79189044
Never really looked into choking, could be cool.
Honestly I'm not sure why you seem so surprised to find someone with such a taste, on 4chan nonetheless, considering how relatively common domination and submission are in human sexuality.
>>79188976
The Emperor appearing in Jedi. So calm and confident, even though appearing to be a weak old man. Then that creepy ass laugh as the scene fades out. You don't need to go showing off badass powers to prove how strong you are, just got to have gravitas.
>>79189141
I'll say this for it: It's better than Attack of the Clones.
>>79189102
Your fault for blowing up their chieftain's keldabe warship and wiping yellow corruption all over Mandalore. Pirate scum.
>>79188976
>>79189037
>>79189125
Personally, I prefer Kylo's because of the blaster bolt freeze, but they were all very good. Now the bigger question is, what's the worst villain intro in Star Wars?
>>79189168
No, but you might be.
Not even 80 posts in and the thread is already over.
Nice.
>>79189206
Because this is /co/, not the MRA Clubhouse, you shithead. Go back to /r9k/
>>79189168
No, but I'm pretty sure he's a 40 year old virgin which is really depressing.
>>79189132
Yeah, that was a nice touch. Maul would be pleased.
>kids show
>>79189236
Grievous.
He just runs away.
>>79189266
Shot through the heart, and you're to blame...
>>79189168
No. He's an alpha male. Pic related. I'm not Filoni;)
>>79189255
What does what he said have to do with MRAs?
>>79189266
Man, TCW had so much more deaths than Rebels
>>79189266
>kids movie
>>79189266
>kids show
>>79189236
Well, Grievous is a coward and kind of played for laughs. Dooku also isn't all that imposing, but is at least more of a character than either Grievous or Maul. So I'd go with either of those really.
>>79189316
So, they ate people, right?
>>79189279
I wish he was in more stuff as a central character. I want to see stuff about him in his earlier days on Kalee.

And they obviously didn't die instantly or painlessly. I can't think of another cartoon that explicitly showed a teenager getting shot and killed
>>79189323
NO, NOT GREG PROOPS
>>79189244
I genuienly don't know why people here hate TFA so much that they just have to shit up the thread every time someone says something about the movie.
>>79189337
THEY EAT NUTS AND BERRIES, YOU IDIOT
>>79189266
>>79189348
>kids show

Because it's not a very good movie.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDAcoiuowc0
Clan Vizsla hype.
>>79189369
>showed a teenager getting shot and killed
But a space gun makes it easier, for reasons.
Censors get up in arms about real firearms, but have no problem with lasers.
>>79189236
Among my least favorites:
>Dooku never got a good theme song in the movies, and they tried to make him so subtle about being a bad guy that his appearances never had much impact. Thankfully, him showing up on Tatooine in the TCW movie was suitable for Christopher Lee's trademark villainy.
>Grievous in RotS, on top of most kids being upset at how pathetic he was compared to his Genndywars version (I got over it, love him TCW now), he just never felt like a passable villain on the Invisible Hand or on Utapau, and Kenobi keeps trying to make a fool of him, undercutting the menace he got in his animated appearances.
>Seventh Sister and Fifth Brother. Their first appearance felt like they were squandering their powers in contrast to the earlier Inquisitor who made full use of his first impressions. I'm optimistic about them growing into better characters later, but their first episode didn't make them out to be impactful villains themselves, and created more of an insidious greater scope of the Empire's dark siders beyond just them, rather than making either of them intimidating on their own merit.
>>79189348
The kiss was cut, but you know what wasn't cut, Ventress forcing Oppress to kill his brother, and implied sex slavery in the same episode
>>79189380
Look at the board you're on
>>79189323
I love how pleased with himself Anakin looks
>>79189425
House Vizsla are traitors and a House of jobbers.
>>79189380
It's the prequel babbies, they hate the OT as well and throw a bitch fit at anyone whose taste isn't as shit as theirs for daring to talk about the actual decent parts of Star Wars in their precious safe space. I wish more people would just report and move on instead of indulging their worthless autistic posts.
>>79189380
It's an extreme thing. You either like it enough to defend it, or hate it enough to shitpost it every chance you get. ...and God help you if you speak the truth and say that it's just a movie that's no better/worse than another.
>>79189282
Fun Fact: Bon Jovi got his start in music singing on Christmas in the Stars: The Star Wars Christmas Album, where he sung R2-D2, We Wish You A Merry Christmas.
>>79189412
It's better than ROTJ and the prequels.
>>79189399
>kids show
>hurrr look at all the death and mature shit im muh cartoon! it's totally not for kids so you can't say shit about me watching it!
>SO NO BULLY
That's what this thread is starting to look like. I bet you're the same crowd that freaks out and makes threads on /co/ when Regular Show says things like 'crap' and go "HOW DID THEY GET AWAY WITH THAT!?"
>>79189337
Yes, hell in the first issue of Shattered Empire, they feed some sort of unknown meat to the rebels there and you see stormtrooper helmets in the foreground. It was kinda fucked up.
>>79189380
I think it was lacking but had a good waifu
>>79189475
It's better than Attack of the Clones and that's it.
>>79189483
You sound butthurt, anon.
>>79189475
I dont know a single adult irl that thinks its better than the prequels, and I live in movie geek central.

It is not. I've encountered people who like it, but no one I actually know likes it.
>>79189585
I am not. I got a text from my friend last week who saw it for the first time and his exact words were "Just saw Force Awawakens. What a hunk of shit". He and his gf hated it.

Buzz droids hit the ship then seek out weak points. Cluster bombs spread their damage around wherever they hit.

>>79189660
I don't believe. I can't imagine there are people with such shit taste. I get why some people wouldn't like TFA, but it's a well directed movie regardless of your personal opinion.
>>79189550
I grew up with the prequels and I don't know a single person who doesn't find those movies to be mediocre at best. I love them all, I'm as big a Star Wars fan as a person can be, but come the fuck on, there is no way you can spin it that puts even RotS above a 7/10 with TPM and AOTC at 6's because I'm generous and have nostalgia for them. The OT and TFA are vastly superior. I honestly just want to watch you die so that I can take comfort in knowing such a terrible opinion has left this world for good, and I don't appreciate how far to the dark side you've made me fall to say that.
>>79189655
IIRC, the old excuse was that they were built to sabotage ships or targets that needed to be captured, or that were carrying something important on them. So, if a republic ship had a prototype piece of tech the CIS wanted to steal, they'd have some buzzers latch on and cripple the ship while leaving the target unharmed and ready for capture.
If that changed, then I have no idea why they're still around.
>>79189730
I-It's a action show not a horror show anon

Yes, OK. J.J

He went out a badass
>>79189795
They are gonna give him a bigger role in VIII since Han is dead now.
>>79189863
Too bad the Count feels differently.
>>79189795
He was originally supposed to die in the TIE Fighter crash but JJ liked his performance so much that he did some last minute changes to keep him alive and have a slightly larger role. Which is why he sort of just shows up again out of nowhere at Takodana. They definitely see how well liked the character is and are expanding his role in the next two films. Likely part of the Episode 8 rewrites going on now.
>>79189869

>Umbara arc
It was so amazing. Even three or four years later after it aired its pretty solid.
>>79189744
It really isn't, though.
I legit have not spoken an adult who enjoyed. My uncles didn't like it, saying "it was pretty much just the first one". My parents didn't have anything to say about after they saw it except 'eh'. My friends didn't like it. I mean, I didn't like it, but one of my friends seemed offended by it being so bad, which made for a heated bar discussion.
Even my normie friends didn't really like it. And when I say 'normie' I mean people who don't work in television and film, as that's the background of most of my friends. People who know shit about film and direction, and they for the most part don't think it's 'well directed' except for one who is a literal shill.
You're welcome to think I'm 'memeing' or trying to shitpost if it makes you feel better in your hugbox, it really doesn't matter to me. You're exactly the kind of person the movie is geared towards: an idiot. So whatever.
>>79189924
Probably also why's he's getting an ongoing to try to expand his character some more.
>>79189511
I find it funny that some went in expecting a different waifu altogether; one who didn't actually do anything.
>>79189822
By my recollection, only three, including myself, actually said it's worse than the prequels.
The prequels never really came up in any other discussion, except with my dad. I don't know why it should. They're different movies. One's quality does not affect the other.
Why should we grade Star Wars movies on a curve?
>>79189955
Can't we just get an Ahsoka ongoing to explain what the hell she did for 20 years?
>>79189937

that's because sabine closes herself off to ezra. leia saw ezra's holocast and sort of admires him for it.
>>79189550
I get not liking TFA, but thinking it's worse than TPM and AotC is straight up retarded.

No, you can't. But if you can put together your argument in a well thoughtout and coherent manner and have a civil back and forth, I'll just chalk it up to a difference of opinion rather than you being a literal retard.
>>79190032
Do you really want this thread to be an eho chamber? I can see why people think its a bad movie, even though I liked it, and you cant just live in denial of the bad parts.

What's so bad about an echo chamber?
>>79190202
>Do you really want this thread to be an eho chamber?
Yes.
>>79190202
Better than trolls and constant bitching.
>>79190255
Then you are lost
You know, not even /sheev/ but what exactly does the Empire do that makes it so heinous and evil? (besides blowing up planets, which they only do much later on in their reign).
I mean, in so many of the books and comics they bang on about how evil and oppressive the whole thing is, and yet all their attempts of proving it seem to be very much forced (no pun intended). In fact most of the oppressive things the Empire seem to do are just retaliatory measures taken out against rebels and dissidents. To quote Prince George from Blackadder "...tell me about these "oppressed masses", what are they so worked up about?"
Are these rebels just nationalists who are upset because they're ruled by a guy 300 light-years away?
Are they starving? Because unless the planet is being blockaded they don't seem to be suffering in terms of material losses.
Really half the time any rebel character talks to a neutral person all they do is bang on about 'muh freedom' rather than citing any factual problem.
>>79190202
There's a difference between an echo chamber and a thread full of shitposting children lashing out at people for enjoying TFA and the OT instead of their trash prequels, which is exactly what retards like him are trying to do. It creates problems and ruins threads, which is what has happened here. If you want to call it an echo chamber, fine, you're wrong, but it's vastly better than the cancer we're being forced to put up with right now.
>>79190274
No, it's not.
>>79190145
As much as I dislike the PT there's nothing wrong with TCW overall.
>>79190200
In short: boring set pieces, horrible dialogue, flat and uninteresting characters.
>>79190317
>There's a difference between an echo chamber and a thread full of shitposting children lashing out at people for enjoying TFA and the OT
Yeah! This thread should be about lashing out at people who DON'T enjoy TFA! That's TOTALLY DIFFERENT!

I was wondering the same thing about the separatists the other day.
>>79190288
Large scale slavery for one. They also seem to be on a crusade against personal rights, eventually dissolve the senate, and maintain a massive military force against... Oh, yeah, there's no enemy except their own people. There's also the kidnappings, brainwashing, etc, etc. And if you make a mistake, or worse yet, someone else makes a mistake under your watch, you can be killed for it instead of just being fired or reprimanded.
>>79190353
What about that is well thought-out? What about that is making a case in favor of TFA not being in the tier of the prequels?
You're just saying why you don't like the prequels, not why you think TFA is better. And all of your points could be said about TFA as well.
So you are a literal retard after all...
>>79190353
TCW is part of the PT. And is as bad and unnecessary than that shitty movies. But whatever, at least Disney is intelligent, and dont bother with neither TCW and Rebels.
The OT and the new movies are the only real canon. Everything else, is just for manchildrens.
>>79190202
>the bad parts
Literally the only complaints I've heard about this movie are "Mary Sue Rey", "ANH 2.0" and "no exposition". It's really just nitpicking and personal opinions, not actual flaws. And even if all of that were true, it would still be a fun and entertaining movie with good dialogue and a perfect mix of practical effects and CGI. That alone makes TFA hundred times better than any of the prequels.
>>79190417

>>79190317
While its true the person hating on TFA didnt really give any other reason besides "my friends and family didnt like it", Ive seen in previous threads anons lashing out at criticisms of TFA. Its turning into an echo chamber.
>hating PT and/or OT
the fuck? Havent seen that echo in previous threads.
>>79190400
Well, the Separatists seem to have been guided by large corporate interests from the background...Sound familiar?
>>79190417
Fair enough. To go a little meta though, is there an in-universe explanation as to why? I'd guess an attempt to concentrate/solidify power in backlash against the separatists however it does seem to be Sheev shooting himself in the foot by just antagonising people...
>>79190500
Not really. I like to have actual discussion. I just expected you to make a more technical argument. You just made a list that just said "it was boring" which really doesn't tell us anything about why you think TFA is better than the prequels.

No one asked me for 'reasons'. I made that statement, the powers that be called bullshit, and I elaborated on what I observed.
>>79190607
It does though. It was the most boring of the six.
>>79190547
See >>79190463
Most criticisms are really just nitpicking. You can find flaws in every Star Wars movie if you look for them. But only TFA gets all the hate here. I wonder why.
>>79190317
The thread is for talking about everything Star Wars. Rebels, TCW, TFA, OT, PT, NuCanon, Legends. Everything. If people want to have a non-critical conversation about any of those things, they should be able to do so without being attacked. Telling people to fuck off because they want to talk about an aspect of Star Wars that you personally don't enjoy only brings negative vibes to the thread.
By all means, be critical or praising of anything you like. But do so in an intelligent way, without insulting anybody or driving people out just because their opinion is different. These threads can be comfy without being an echochamber/hugbox, all it takes is altering the tone that you use when talking to each other and not taking things personally.
Basically: grow up.

We're not talking about other Star Wars movies, though. Stop going "look, the others did it so it's okay!"
This is a different film.

That episode is next Wednesday. Rebels came back from break yesterday.
>>79185370
I can't decide what tolisten tonext. Can you guys help me out?
Which of these are best in terms of
>Character likeability
>Overall writing
>Overall story
>Universe impact
(stuff like major characters from mainline stuff dying etc. Boba Fett being confirmed alive in Aftermath is a good example of what I mean.)
>Audio book quality
(Voice acting/music)
Any help is appreciated.
>>79190717
But its a remake of 4. All remakes are meant to be compared.
>>79190651
I really disagree. I was entertained by and invested in what was going on in TFA, while I couldn't give less of a fuck about the PT's flashy set pieces.
>>79190682
I want to hug him.
>>79190647
Disney doesn't care about PT, and certainly, neither about TCW and Rebels. Even if Rebels is sucking the huge dick of TFA, this isn't a 69. No movie will refer the series as canon.
>>79188914

Pick one.
Was it just me or did Leia's eyes look really weird in that episode?
>>79190730
Didn't mean to quote.
>>79190717
So? TFA's flaws are very minor, but people here are still denying that it's well directed. I've never seen anyone here criticizing ROTJ for the ewoks or ANH for it's cheesy dialogue and less than stellar acting. These are just minor flaws that most people can ignore. So why is it so hard for people to enjoy TFA despite it's minor flaws?
>>79190730
Well I just read lords of the sitj and it was great.
Lots of character for Vader, some good empire in fighting and a cool look at the post empire free ryloth movement and the people who make it
>>79190866
You are living in the PC culture, what you fucking expect?
>>79188956
That's because Ezra is being built up to be her love interest. This all in preperation for the Disney re releases of the OT where Han will be replaced with Ezra. Chopper will be replacing Luke.
>>79190730
Twilight Company is GOAT, read that shit.
>>79190866
It's new and popular once Rouge One and Episode 8 come out they'll be going on about how they're irredeemably awful and TFA was better.
>>79190809
>They don't care about PT and TCW.
Then why is TCW canon?
>>79190866
I enjoy all the films
>>79190730
I've only read LoTS and really liked it. About 1/3 through listening and reading along to Battlefront and I like it a lot so far. It's like Band of Brothers with a smaller cast.
>>79190730
Dark Disciple is terrible and I would avoid it.
>>79190957
Yeah, because Asoka totally appears in Episode III, or episode VII.
Your stupid shows are in the same levels in canon as the fucking Ewoks movies.
>>79190981
Is it really? I heard it was the best of the batch
>>79191024

What did I miss aside from the the trailer?
also, what was the threads reaction to the trailer
>mfw maul
that was maul right?
>>79190809
Do you really think Disney, a large scale corporation, has time to settle whats canon? Hell, they just bought star wars for the merchandising and profit. If they really didnt care about the prequels, they wouldnt let the director of episode 8 say that he found the prequels to be "beautiful"(probably from a artwork/design perspective) or let JJ mention the sith and the clones in episode 7.
Basically, you think Disney actually gives a flying fuck about Star Wars and its image.
>>79191016
You crazy you know that?
>>79191016
Ahsoka left the Jedi order, have you watched the show?
>>79190616
A few threads ago, yes. We have to get back in the habit of putting them in the OP for new threads, if we can beat the stupid fetishposter to it.
>>79190726
2x11 is "A Princess on Lothal" by the Rebels Recon number system.
>>79191094
>that was maul right
Uh, a-duh. Don't tell me you didn't watch TCW.
>>79190761
Just by nature of it being a remake of a movie that was made 30 years eariler by a man who can't blink without copying Spielberg and not understanding why Spielberg does it, it was the most boring. Because we've literally seen it all before.
There were no interesting visuals. The pacing was far too fast for any one shot to matter or make an impact. There was no real taking advantage of modern technology or filmmaking techniques. Nothing really got a chance to stand out. They touted the practical effects and sets and stunts, but the only thing that remotely stood out was the attack on the Jakku junk town.
The completely contrived nature of several plot points like the Han Solo ship, the incredibly stupid nature of "the map", and more only really fall flat. But what really fell flat was the half assed introduction to a character that's suppose to be the new big bad, Snoke. There was no introduction, set up, no anything. You don't really get an impression of him as anything other than a Palpatine clone.
Then all the familiar and predictable story beats of rescue Rey, break in the fortress, attack the bigger Death Star, all just brought in with an atmosphere of 'who cares?' There wasn't really an effort to put in stakes for these major scenes, because they felt they didn't have to. That much is obvious. Even the characters themselves treat the whole situation with an air of "we do this shit all the time, big deal."
And getting off technical aspects of the film, say what you will about George as a director and script writer, but what he always had going for him was imagination. Always trying to improve and do outdo himself. JJ Abrams' notion of 'going backward before you go forward' is insulting to that legacy in the same way his Star Trek movies were an insult to the spirit of Star Trek.
>>79191024
Far from it anon. Better than Aftermath, but that's not saying much since that was a genuine 0/10, but it's certainly not very good. Lords of the Sith and Twilight Company are must reads. And Lost Stars if you haven't already.
>>79190809
It's just straight up not true to say that Disney doesn't care about the PT, although not as openly or lovingly as the OT. And saying they don't care about products like Rebels, the Kanan comic or the Anakin and Obi Wan comic they're actively financing and marketing right now is just being wilfully ignorant (not to mention the abundance of PT references in all of the NuCanon OT-era comics and novels).
TFA does borrow from lore established in the PT as well - the Sith, the need for the Force to be in balance (as mentioned by Lor San Tekka in the opening scene), the Jedi Temple are all referenced by characters in the film, and all were concepts that did not exist before TPM was released. And as the art book shows, at the concept stage many prequel elements were being included, the biggest of which being Hayden Christensen's return as Anakin's ghost (which may yet be carried over for the next movie).
>>79191133
I mean, I didn't but I knew what happened with him.
>>79191024
That person has the worst taste or he was playing you.
The first half or so was pretty good. But that just makes it all the more terrible, once, the book just goes completely retarded later on.
>>79191186
>I didn't
Get outta here and start watching it. Don't ask which episodes can be skipped, there a gorillion rec charts out there.

Did you bother checking the download pastebin first? God, people are getting lazier and lazier.
>>79191144
I agree with you. I would say that the scenes on Jakku were a pretty good cinema imo (autistic Rey, Kylo's introduction, Poe and BB-8, Finn losing his buddy).
>Clearly, Force Awakens is far from the worst Star Wars movie, but it might actually be the least interesting. In some ways, the triumph of this, Star Wars 2.0—and its predictable, nostalgia-reliant, repackaged thrills—is a defeat for what made the trilogy extraordinary in the first place—its madcap sci-fi originality and genre-bending experimentation.
>Force Awakens is the most derivative Star War; as some commenters have pointed out, it’s almost a scene-by-scene remake of A New Hope. At first that’s a huge relief (no prequel-scale disaster in sight) and exciting, even. We watch imperial troops from a galactic empire pursue a robot with stolen plans across a desert planet and into the care of a young loner with mysterious powers who was then aided by a wisecracking smuggler and his space ape in a seedy interstellar tavern where cheerful aliens play catchy orbital music, and we all grin wide.
>But by the time the Rebellion/Resistance is blowing up the third incarnation of the Death Star in almost as many films, doesn’t the Force seem to be contracting a bit? We’ve been here so, so many times. And that’s to say nothing of the host of callbacks to past plot points, cameos from beloved characters from the original films, and the familiar John Williams crescendos.
>>79191094
You can't stall the Maul.
The reactions were mostly positive, and it seemed to give a lot of people renewed confidence in Rebels going forward.
You also missed yesterday's new episode, A Princess on Lothal. Leia is introduced for the first time in Rebels. It is her only appearance this season.
We also got Kanan vs AT-AT action, along with Ezra growing momentarily closer to the dark side
You can watch/download it from the links these anons posted >>79191234

cause he look retarded, at least that was the consensus in my appartment.
Also that yoda looks like shit
>>79191144
I agree with this. TFA was definitely flawed in its concepts. They went over board with the parallelism with A new hope.
However, I did think the characters and visuals were top notch. Although CGI, was fairly obvious in some scenes, the castle was what I was most surprised by as most was CG. The characters, although entertaining, lacked logical backstories and had no real interesting expansion or skillsets to expand from their backstory, besides Kylo Ren.
>>79191418
>How so?
You can watch the episode to find out. Or read the spoiler.Ezra savagely beats a trooper unconscious during a mission, and Kanan and Leia are surprised in the moment but say nothing.
>>79191144
Couldn't disagree more. TFA looked and felt awesome to me. The characters were likable, the visuals were amazing, the pacing was fast which made the movie more exciting, the cinematography was really beautiful at times (Han's death scene for example) and the humor was genuinely funny. Did we need a third Death Star? No. Was it wrong to give us almost no explanations about the state of the galaxy? Yes. But the movie was still very entertaining and actually felt like Star Wars, unlike the prequels that were just horribly directed, written and acted.
>>79191472
i thought Ewan was scottish?
>>79191471
Pfft that's hardly dark side. Ezra is not goons go evil. This isn't Anakin 2 electric boogaloo.
>>79191444
Yea everything on Rebels looks kinda stiff/bad but I'm excited for more nu canon lore.
>>79191308
I think they made the best use of the effects, but were pretty poor cinema.
>>79190317
This is what we deal with.
These are the kind of people who attack Neil Degras Tyson because he points out scientific errors in TFA.
>>79191472
>the pacing was fast which made the movie more exciting
I couldn't disagree more.
The pacing is extremely disjointed. It relies on fast cuts away from the action that don't allow the film to breath with the brief moments of exposition it has. 1/3 of the movie is focused on the search for Luke, which takes a grinding halt until the last 30 seconds on the film.
Everything that happens in between is effectively filler for what the movie told us the plot was supposed to be.
>>79191144
>There were no interesting visuals.
What? This shot alone provides better visual storytelling than everything we've seen in the prequels. We instantly know many things about Rey's character and her life before she even says one line, thanks to the visuals.
>>79189259
He mentioned his wife in a blu ray commentary about umbara once. So much to my surprise he is married. She's obsessed with decorative cushions like padme apparently.
You think the holonet has its own version of /mu/
Can JJ even approach this level of pottery?
>You now realize each of the prequel villains represented a different aspect of what Anakin would turn into
>Maul: Filled with rage
>Dooku: Fallen jedi
>Grevious: Cyborg with breathing problems
>>79191465
>>79191308
And do you agree with the ridiculous macguffiness of 'the map'? That was probably the worst plot device I've seen in a film in a long time.
>>79189348
I feel like it would have been easier to chop off his hand, that's the more civil thing for Jedi to do right?
>>79191593
>Everything that happens in between is effectively filler for what the movie told us the plot was supposed to be.
So just like Empire, which is considered the best movie in the saga.
>>79191600
>What? This shot alone provides better visual storytelling than everything we've seen in the prequels.
That's...objectively not true though.
