Alright now that the dust has truly settled can we talk about the best character in this new flick? That passion and hatred mang, what a trooper.
TRAITOR
How did his lightsaber not break that thing? I mean Qui Gon and Obi-Wan fucking melted a panzer door in Episode 1 with a lightsaber.
Is that just Some Guy? The stormtroopers are totally faceless drones that get cut down like grass but they pause to have a dramatic one on one between the hero and Some Guy?
>>63784468
>>63784408
Literally BRAVO JJ: the movie, fellas
>>63784408
General Grievous' bodyguard droids had those purple electricity staffs that could block lightsabers too. It's not like there isn't a precedent for this.
>>63784468
To be fair, Finn is just "Some Guy" too. It's not like he's a Jedi, he's just a Stormtrooper swinging around a lightsaber.
>>63784313
>now that the dust has truly settled
Is it 2018 already?
I expected him to be brainwashed but looks like he's just going to end up as the next Han Solo. Too bad, I'd like to see a jedi that's not LOL MOST POWERFUL CHOSEN ONE EVER.
>>63784725
Who else loved the scenes with Finn wielding the lightsaber the most? That stuff felt as desperate as Luke yielding it in Empire. I really hope they pull an audible and make Finn the main jedi in the rest of the movies.
Why did he have this thing
TRAITOR
This guy just loved the Order.
>>63784313
WEBM WHERE WITH AUDIO
>>63784313
The only thing that would have made this scene complete would be Finn hurting himself with a light sabre due to sword inexperience.
When he fell the sabre turned off straight away which was a great missed opportunity
ITS TRAITOR THEN

its the standard issue black people beating stick that all space cops are issued
>>63785074
Finn won't ever be a jedi and it'll be far better that way.
Make him a resistance commander, a general, a leader of men, not some shitty jedi.
Goddamn I need to watch this film again

he is defeating his former self. its pottery.
Calling it now. Finn and Captain Phasma slug it out to the death in Ep 8.
TRAAAAITORR!
>>63784408
>How did his lightsaber not break that thing?
Because in the script, there was an action scene where Finn uses a lightsaber. So they needed a guy with a weapon that won't get fucked by a lightsaber. So they made up one. It was in the script.
>>63784408
>>63786929
If my my limited Star wars lore knowledge serves any purpose blades or staffs that vibrate are used to block lightsabers
Or at least thats how they explained it in KOTOR
>>63784313
This guy was Sheev reincarnated as a non force sensitive
>>63787008
>KOTOR
Why must you bring up that fan fiction bullshit mang?
>>63787008
correction, the vibrating blades didnt stop lightsabers. turns out cortosis-weave is something that can be implemented into higher-end blades and armor to deflect lightsabers
>>63784313
I know you guys are tired of reading this but Finn truly is one ugly motherfucker
>>63786929
Right, general Greivous didn't have these or anything.

everything is fanfiction after the originals, the difference being the fanfiction must conform to lucasarts standards to be considered part of the canon
>>63787102
>implying KOTOR isn't canon
it ain't fanfiction
That thing the trooper is carrying seems kind of big to have a standard equipment
>>63787234
>>63787243
Well KOTOR is non canon fan fiction, so don't bring that shit up unless you want to talk about old dead EU for some reason.
>>63787273
i'm pretty sure everything that carries the star wars name legally is canon unless specifically retconned, mate
Finn will go back to the empire because Rey spurned his advances.
>>63787326
Nigga you retard? Disney got rid of old EU, including KOTOR. KOTOR has nothing to do with Star Wars anymore, and probably never will.
>>63787326
Exactly, EU isn't canon because canon said it's not.
>>63787329
and Chewie*
>>63787356
I swear I thought KOTOR was still considered canon
>>63787356
retarded, no, i just didnt know it was retconned
thanks for the clarification
>>63784313
Why wasn't this Captain Phasma?
>>63787416
fair enough
So is this guy the newest meme?
Why?
So this is obviously the stormtrooper played by Tom Cruise right?
TRAITOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR
>>63787444
Because the good guys are shit and the main villian is also shit and everything is turned into shit except a white armor guy beating up a fucking nigger.

You seem to be having a hard time tonight.

A reference to the clone wars cartoon which had a whole plot line based about the planet and Mandolorians. The visual dictionary is written by Pablo Hidalgo, the guy in charge of canon.
>>The entire movie is about finding a starmap to Luke Skywalker's location
>Starmaps were used to find Rakata Prime / Lehon and the Starforge
This is literally one of the dumbest arguments I have seen on /tv/ bro.
Anyway, KotoR, still not canon, and you will never hear about Revan again. Thank you based Disney.
I was really disapointed that the guys from the Raid weren't given more to do, they were just fodder for those monsters on Han's ship. RIP
>>63787605
>being literally retarded: the anon
They found him on fucking rakata prime, dipshit
Same geography
Same planet name
Same device for finding the planet
Faggot
>>63787605
That would be Mandalore, not Malachor, you jack ass
>>63784313
Fun fact, I actually know the guy who played him.
They hired a parkour athlete named pip Anderson to play him. In the original script, and when they were filming, he was supposed to have more speaking lines and some shots without the mask. They hired a parkour guy because they wanted to make the fight more epic with lots of flips and acrobatics. Sorry I don't have any proof, but honestly I don't care if y'all believe me or not.
>>63787757
In the end though of course, all of that got scrapped.
TRAAAAAAAAAAIITOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRR

HAHAHA, holy shit, you EU faggots will never let go.

It's a reference to a line said by some character in the cartoon, and not to Kotor2, which never happened as far as Disney's canon is concerned.

>>63787356
no, imbecile, YOU are retarded. Almost everything from KOTOR with exception of Revan was canonized. Do some research before you start spewing bullshit, idiot smart ass
>>63787757
I could have visualized the audience gasping at a stormtrooper doing shit like that.
>>63787901
It's weird how obssessed EU fags are. Not only did almost nothing but a few planet names got carried over, most of the old republic setting was retconned by the clone wars cartoon.
Once more, let us thank Disney for getting rid of that low quality fan fiction from canon.

It's ok that you like Finn so much, he was a good character, but Rey had stronger connections/interactions with most characters.

>No — BioWare “has created their own universe that is so fantastic,” we’re not going to change it, says Hidalgo.
lol

Which does not matter to anybody with a functional brain.

reading comprehension, anon
>>63788037
An interesting fact that Backus shared is that Director J.J. Abrams watched the KotFE blur trailer because he had carte blanche to decide whether what the BioWare team was doing contradicted the story he was telling in any way. He also added that Lucasfilm could draw on any of what BioWare writes for future Star Wars things.
lol
it's literally just a matter of time, sorry autist
>>63788104
I don't know, ask the KotoR fan why they can't let go.
>>63788037
>confusing TOR with Kotor
>literally a gay
>>63788120
Keep that hope alive.
>>63788138
pls
Well my work here is done, I have caused enough EU butthurt today.
Just remember guys, all of Old Republic already got retconned in the cartoon, KotoR is not canon, never will be, and you will never hear about your favorite Mary Sue, Revan, ever again in canon.
You guys have a good day.
>>63787920
well yeah because it would have made literally no sense.
it didn't even make sense that he behaved like he did in the film. the film was shitty enough that the inappropriateness made it better than anything else.
>>63784408
The VISIBLE energy field it generates CLEARLY blocks the lightsaber, it's not like he's taping it with a metal stick.
>>63786797
such pottery
.webm with sound when?
>>63787326
Not film, not canon. Literally any film can disregard anything established in non-film continuity, so there's no reason to give any fucks about it, even if we had some to spare, which we don't.
>>63788037
thats too bad. the Imperial Agent storyline would have been rad as fuck as a movie.
>>63787329
>He was clearly meant to be the main character and he should have been.
>Yet Rey is considered the main character. Why?
Because she's a Skywalker and he's just Launcho Calrissian.
>>63788392
I think he might be a mandilorian, and if not he might be force sensitive considering how quickly he can adapt to weapons.
He was on sanitation
TRAITORRRRRRRRRR
>>63784408
And in the originals Luke waved his saber around and couldn't even cut through a thin metal tube railing without repeated full-force attempts, your point? This thing has some kind of energy shielding around it, I would summarize that it's considerably stronger than a guard rail.
>>63787988
>It's ok that you like Finn so much, he was a good character, but Rey had stronger connections/interactions with most characters.
Name one cool interaction Rey had with a character other than Finn.
Go.
>>63788433

NO ONE GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THE EU ANYMORE MATE WHEN WILL YOU DUMBFUCKS LEARN
>force sensitive means you're good with weapons

>>63788433
>He was on sanitation
Yeah, he's seen some serious shit.
>>63788495
Rey and Kylo. Not that guy btw.
>>63788609
I liked that scene, but I liked it because of Kylo Ren, not because of her.

It is quite literally a new form of Vibroblade, lifted from the old republic and suited with some sweet new tech.

I'm surprised he hasn't reached memerific status yet. That was his only purpose.
t. JJ
Imagine if his father was killed by Luke and he spent his life designing an effective anti lightsaber weapon and that was the first time he used it.
>>63789530
Oh fuck... this is great. Sadly as a trooper, he taken from his parents as child and wouldn't have this motivation.
