Guess who is canon in Star Wars now.
Not like any of you ever played Empire at War.
Wasn't Thrawn from the EU books?
>>345214456
Originally yes. But he also got some vidya appearences.
>>345214238
the empire seemed 1488 gas the xenos scum why would they let a blue nigger work for them
>>345215003
Because Thrawn was so awesome commander so emperor let him be.
>>345215003
Thrawn was just that good.
>>345215003
As far as I know the Empire was always cool with the Chiss.Kinda like nazis were cool with Japan?

>>345215003
He took down an Empire scouting expedition with a bunch of underpowered crusiers. Got the Emperor's attention and was the only Admiral to openly disagree with his plans, but was later proved correct.
Got moved to the Outer Rim because racism tho

>>345215003
Chiss aren't really a separate species from humans, they're classified as near-humans, which are capable of interbreeding.
>>345215520
Did I see the Outrider in that one shot? Is this supposed to be a Dark Trooper?

>Mara Jade confirmed not showing up in any fashion as well.

HOW?
This is bullshit, he died I felt it.
>>345217112
The producer said that the person behind the design of the Outrider back in the day is on his team for the show. They are bringing the design back because of it, but not Dash along with it.
>>345217174
>he doesn't follow the cartoons
Movie only fags are so behind in the story.
>>345217138
>Mara Jade
>>345214238
Empire at war is one of the best Star wars games ever made, I mean mods alone make it a 10/10 but the expansion and the space battles were so good. Getting and holding Kuat with Star destroyers crushing Rebel scum was good times
>>345216856
Didn't moving him there ultimately save his ass though, since his fleet was able to escape completely intact from the events of Return of the Jedi?
so does this mean we have a chance of seeing Thrawn in the movies or is it now official that we won't?
>>345214238
The only canon in Star Wars is the first three movies and the Droids cartoon.
>>345217286
Was Jar Jar the key to all of this?
>>345218612Mara Jade.It was a skit.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A45FQvlfU6Q
>>345218490
Only movie he can show up in is Rogue One, unless he lives for over 35 years to be in the TFA era. Rogue One already has a cartoon-only character showing up (Saw Gerrera from TCW) so it's entirely possible for Thrawn to show up in a movie if he lives through this season.
>>345214456
Was a central figure in the "TIE Fighter" games as well.
>>345218490
Forest Whitaker's character in Rogue One is from TCW, so it's definitely possible
They won't use a single thing from any EU materials. E7 already stuck true to this, with everything new being chosen with contrariness to EU as the first consideration. These movies are supposed to be NEW. Luke will be dead halfway through E8 and after that everything will be about the new characters. Leia will be the only original trilogy character to briefly cameo in E9.
>>345219353
>These movies are supposed to be NEW.
Wait. You mean they didn't just put a new special edition version of 4 in cinemas? What the fuck did I go see then?
>>345215246
nazis weren't cool with japan. they just didn't want to deal with them during the war.
>>345217174
Blame Lucas.
>>345219353
>TCW character showing up in Rogue One movie
>Ep 8 director helped write some of one of the recently released books to help people understand what will show up in 8
Didn't Hamill already say that the Ep 9 director wanted Luke alive by that movie so he could have his way with the character?
>>345219489
episode 4 is still canon retard
so ashoka dead? according to this trailer?
>>345216856
>Got moved to the Outer Rim because racism tho
No, he got moved because he was a fanfiction character and the people who made the OT never gave a flying fuck about him, that's why he doesn't exist in the movies.
>>345219353
Fucks sake.
TFA was a goddamned retarded catastrophe and no amount of disney money and pull is going to make that shit not a massive failure in retrospect.
>>345219772
There's still no confirmation of it, other than "we'll see her in the future again." It wasn't said whether that would be in the future of the timeline from where she "died" in Rebels, or we see her again in flashbacks or things that happened prior to Rebels.
>>345219353
I have serious money on Luke fucking biting it in E8 just so he can be like Obi Wan, training Rey (who is obv the new Luke(
>>345219772
Ahsoka was killed by Vader in Rebels recently. They had a duel, she tried to redeem him, he refused and she stayed to hold him off while the temple blew up.
NOW ALL WE NEED IS REVAN
>>345214238
So the whole nazis vs rebels thing they had going in TFA was so stupid that they are going to retcon the first order into being a small section of rich empire glory days worshipping nuts and make Thrawn the actual leader of the empiral remnants correct?
Cause...I honestly don't understand how Leia isn't Queen and major war hawk for the new republican senate.
I don't get how there isn't a major cold war going on between these two sides and the events in TFA were just a small skirmish.
>watching these awful cartoons
>making cherry picked highlight reals to trick people into watching these awful cartoons
I just don't get it. I really don't.
>>345220026
>a goddamned retarded catastrophe
Regardless of how you feel personally, TFA was such an enormous success Star Wars will probably go down as the biggest franchise in film history. They're going to make more SW movies than fucking Avengers/Marvel. TFA was an extremely safe movie. They introduced just enough for a safe story, killed one "major" character and left a whole lot open as far as the EU goes. Biggest loss so far is Rogue One stealing the death star plans, but we still can probably expect to see Dash Rendar in some form.
>>345216762
No Lucas bux.
>>345220146
she survived exploding temples all the time in clown wars
>>345214238
>thrawn
>from empire at war
Have YOU read timothy zahn, faggot-kun?
>>345220434
That was when Lucas was using her as his little girl stand-in.
>>345219353
I will never understand how people are just shitting all over TFA like it fucked their mother.
Rei got good way too fast and needs to get taken down a notch next movie.
It was edited too fast, too much like a modern blockbuster.
>>345220164
I want a fucking KOTOR1&2 Miniseries on netflix.
Get Sarah Kestelman as Kreia, reframe the Jedi Civil and Mandalorian Wars as a series of flashbacks and give me some more star wars PTSD.
>>345218798
>>345218490
Voiceactor is Lars Mikkelsen. He could easily play Thrawn in a live-action movie considering how they made the character look in the Rebels trailer.
>>345220497
im just sayin'
>Maul lived
>Anakin lived
>Snoke
>Zahn
>Doing another Thrawn book next year
I'm excited and scared at the same time
>>345220146
that was off screen right? i doubt she is dead. Anni prob knocked her out, took her to reprogram her into a sith. cause if vader got out she could have.
>>345220572
Like I said in >>345220362 Regardless of what anons on 4chan think, TFA was a big enough success that this Franchise will never fucking die. They will pump more movies from it than Avengers/Marvel. TFA was a play it safe film, they had enough characters and locations for a single movie, one "major" character death, but there is still so much we don't know about the world and what's happened in the past 2 canon decades that most of the EU is up for debate. Biggest loss so far comes with Rogue One being the story of how the Death Star plans were captured. We can expect a lot more movies in the intervening decades between 6-7 fleshing things out, that's why we don't know much based solely on TFA.
Like honestly, do you want JJ making up 20 years of canon?
>>345219524
yeah, because them living literally on the other side of the world was no issue.
The alliance between germany and soviet union was one of convenience, because neither wanted to deal with the other atm, but japan had great relations with germany since mid to late 19th century. Japanese school systems were adapted from germany. there are shitloads of roads in either country named after things from the other, many cities have partner cities in the other country.
Hitler even called them "true aryans".
Tl;dr
You know shit.
>>345220101
Nigga, TFA basically threw the whole force ghost thing out of the window.
Fucking darth emo jews entire thing was him jacking off over the helmet of Darth Vader and "FINISHING HIS WORK". I'm not even going to get into how he was able to get a fucking helmet that was canonically burned to ash from radioactive ruin of the ewoks hone world.
Nor am I going to go into MAGIC LIGHT SABERS CAN NOW CALL TO PEOPLE THROUGH THE FORCE thing and the whole BECOME FORCE MASTER IN SECONDS BECAUSE OF THE FORCE!! stuff.
Luke can't be a force ghost because it makes TFA retroactively look even more fucking stupid.
And rey isn't the new Luke. She's just the new protag,and a text book mary sue.
If anything the stupid finn character is more like luke.
>>345220606
also boba fett
>>345220340
I'm not a fan of Rebels. Prinze Jr is just doing his typical Bioware character but in the SW universe, Sabine is young female demographic bait, for lack of a better term. Chopper is forced so hard that I find it annoying, and Ezra is a whiny cunt. Zeb is the only redeeming new character.
I may dislike Rebels, but I have to follow it for what's canon and the like. It's painful being an adult Star Wars fan now.
>>345220909
Dude you are way too mad to have this discussion with. There's a lot of evidence Snoke is manipulating Darht Emo Jew through the helmet. As for Light Sabers containing memories, there have been plenty of force artifacts instilling memories and visions throughout the canon. Rey is definitely the new Luke, down to their fucking story arcs. Like how you could watch them meeting at the end and not realize this is fucking beyond me.
>>345220909
the force does a lot of new things in TFA
>object residual memory / triggering Rey's bloodline
>holding laserblasts in midair
>force infused missiles (new for the movies atleast)
>>345220934
>>345220606
I love how one off "cool badass" characters with no character beyond their design like fett and maul were retconned from certain death cause of rabid fanboys.
>>345221104
its basically a modern Final Fantasy game
>>345220362
>TFA was such an enormous success Star Wars will probably go down as the biggest franchise in film history.
Dude
1. Disney stacked the deck in the movies favor. MAJORLY
2.The shwag sales for the movie has been dismal.
3.No one outside of the jezebel/feminist crowd likes the ray character. And even they are only giving her the big thumbs up because of gurl powah. Ren is a fucking joke and darth smeagul..dude.
>>345221217
While I still think bringing Maul back was a dumb move, it at least gave the character some depth that TPM sorely lacked.
>they will never be togetherbut Barriss didnt die on screen so i still believe
>>345220909
>I'm not even going to get into how he was able to get a fucking helmet that was canonically burned to ash from radioactive ruin of the ewoks hone world.
Why mention that and not the fact that they got Luke's original lightsaber that was supposed to be lost in Bespin?
>>345221216
>>object residual memory / triggering Rey's bloodline
Already done in the EU. Revan straight up had his mind wiped.
>>holding laserblasts in midair
Force freeze has been a thing, and kylo does it to people as well.
>>force infused missiles (new for the movies atleast)
What are these? I don't remember.
>>345221217
To be fair I have no issue with Maul. His story as a renegade apprentice who's opposing sidious is interesting. Especially in rebels. The only good part of that series is seeing how he's became a legend to the inquisitors and manipulating the jedi kid.
>>345220909
I understand your problems with Rei, wait till the next movie and hope she gets her leg sliced off for hubris.
Finn was the most likable character in the movie, don't know how he's "stupid."
>MAGIC LIGHT SABERS CAN NOW CALL TO PEOPLE THROUGH THE FORCE
Considering a shithole cave did the same thing in Empire, seemed fine to me.
>BECOME FORCE MASTER IN SECONDS BECAUSE OF THE FORCE!!
She got good way too fast, but made sense because Kylo was an insecure little bitch.
I don't get whats so crazy about Kylo digging up Vader.
You just sound like a sperg.
>>345221121
Different anon, but I agree that Rey is the new Luke. Star Wars has always been about the Skywalker family and with the new trilogy it'll be about them again, but now with the token 'handing off' of the franchise to younger actors and more and more characters to broaden demographics and appeal. Because Disney.
>>345221316
True. And other long-standing franchises. Never thought about that.
>>345214238
>never played empire at war
Nigga I will fight you in the streets. Its an amazing Star Wars game, and in my opinion, blended ground and space perfectly.
>>345221325
Rey had the potential to be interesting. Instead she was just a boring mary-sue.
I was surprised with Finn, he was a damn good character and made sense (aside from "conditioned from birth" yet had a personality hole, would've made more sense if he had just joined the first order military with no knowledge of their brutality)
>>345221436
This, and R2 suddenly turning on for no reason, are among some of the more outstanding issues I had with the film. And then they handwave it off saying "that's a story for another time". Fuck you, Abrams.
>>345221104
>>345221316
I haven't played a FF game since 12.
I haven't watched more than a few minutes of SW since III.
Just walk away. There's no point. There will never be any satisfying conclusion. Disney will see to its perpetuity.
>>345221580
Finn was just annoying, poorly constructed comedy relief
Poe was way better
>>345220909
>from radioactive ruin of the ewoks hone world.
Endor was never affected by the Death Star II's destruction, even in the EU. That was Imperial propaganda and lies.
>>345215520
>Wedge voiced by Yuri Lowenthal
>>345221580
Considering how 7 reflected 4, watch Rey get her arm/hand cut off so 8 will reference 5. And I suspect they'll justify her proficiency with the Force by having her trained under Luke as a kid but then mind-wiped and sent to Jakku to protect her from some threat.

It would make nice plot for a Rogue Squadron game, I guess.
It hurts that they scraped it, I really liked SW almost without the Force bullshit. It was actual Star Wars, as in war in space. With spaceships and all.
>>345221787
A character without a complete story cannot be a Mary sue. Stop being retarded.
She didn't do anything well the entire movie. Everything she did was sloppy and amateur.
>>345221905
Are you guys autistic? The force has always been magical bullshit, and star wars has always been fairytale fantasy in space. Did you even watch the original movie? Obiwan vanishes into a puff of smoke. Later he speaks to Luke from beyond the grave. The fact you accept THIS but not THAT is skewed. They are well within the same realm of storytelling.
>>345222224
Rebels S1+S2 sucked aside from some major episodes.
Anything with Darth vader appearing was fantastic due to the menace that James Earl Blackman still exudes even now.
>I'm not afraid of you!
>Then you will die braver than most.
>>345222758
its about internal consistency
>>345222312
>How much of his backstory can that nigga mine?
Thrawn has no backstory.
>BUT ALL THESE BOOKS--
Never fucking happened.
He needs new, canon backstory.
>>345222716
>She didn't do anything well the entire movie. Everything she did was sloppy and amateur.
And still won because she magically was stronger than a trained swordsman, she also magically knew how to mind-trick someone, something only practiced jedi-knights could do even in the prequels.
>>345222838
What's not consistent?
This trailer alone is more exciting than anything Disney Wars has put out since the acquisition
>>345222716
she flew the Falcon pretty well
>>345217279
the story has gone full retard so I'm not too upset over that
>>345222816
The season finale of S2 stands up there with the absolute best of the entirety of the Clone Wars series.
>>345222838
And I'm saying it IS internally consistent. The force has always been feelsy bullshit magic. And Disney is now calling the shots on everything anyway, including what is internally consistent in Star Wars
>>345222906
If anything this is the part I don't buy, but Ren had been shot by a bow caster, and again, the force runs on feelsy bullshit plot rules. She won because she was the good guy, and the good force is stronger than the bad force
>Darth Maul working with the Rebel
>Grand Admiral Thrawn
>Light Side and Dark Side of the force becoming one
>Grey force
>>345218798
since he's an alien can't they just hand wave it and say he ages slowly?
>>345223145
but Luke only beat Vader because he used the bad force
>>345222856
This
Much of Thrawn back story relates to the Vong, and the Chiss' and Empires early attempts to prepare for their invasion. With no Vong, vast parts of the back story need to be rewritten
>>345223145
The mind trick is the one thing that doesn't make sense to me and pisses me off the most.
Could she overpower a shot in the gut kylo? Yes, with force magic and emotional shite she can clearly do whatever, but a mind-trick requires knowledge that such a technique works. It was literally thrown in for a nod to the source material and makes NO SENSE. Brute force like throwing and pulling is easy and instinctual.
>>345222906
>magically stronger
No. Kylo wasn't trying to kill her, or she would have been dead. He was injured from a bow caster shot and bleeding profusely the entire time, right after fully embracing the dark side and killing his father, which is an emotionally disturbing ordeal even for a dark side user. His shoulder had been injured by Finn as well.
>magically
It's called the Force, and it fills people who use it with magical powers that makes them seem magical. This isn't fucking new.
>knew how to mind trick someone
The. FORCE. She doesn't need to be taught ANYTHING. The Force awakened. She inherently knows it all, but she cannot remember, it is locked away. Plus it took her THREE TRIES ON A TROOPER!
>>345214238
Thrawn hasn't been raped by Disney yet. TIME TO CHANGE THAT.
>>345223332
That I'll give you. That was wierd and the only way to chalk it up is the force was working through her
>>345223353
>The. FORCE. She doesn't need to be taught ANYTHING.
Meanwhile Luke spent months learning how to lift a single rock with Yoda
So bullshit.
>>345222758
I accept the lightsaber shit. They'll explain it later, but I just don't like how they introduce something and then offer no backstory beyond 'I'll tell you later."
The R2 shit is what bugs me. It reactivated for what reason? The only theory that makes sense is because Rey is related to Luke, but droids don't feel the Force, no? They can be affected by it but not feel it. So what gives? Any explanation will feel cheap to me, but not as bad just not having a reason for it beyond because it suited the story.
>>345223353
>>knew how to mind trick someone
>The. FORCE. She doesn't need to be taught ANYTHING. The Force awakened. She inherently knows it all, but she cannot remember, it is locked away. Plus it took her THREE TRIES ON A TROOPER!
Fuck off with your autistic head-canon. Its clear she doesn't know everything about the force.
>>345223264
Technically yes, but the Chiss are too near-human to really get something like that.
>>345223353
>she inherently knows it all
>he says as a reason she's not a mary sue
So /v/.
Where do you know Thrawn from?
The books? Tie-Fighter? Or maybe EaW?
>>345223485
Shes even more the chosen one-ier than Luke obv
>>345223414
They apparently got Zahn to do it though so I'm cautiously optimistic
>>345221121
1.The helmet should not exist and the little cunt should be told from MULTIPLE FUCKING SOURCES INCLUDING DARTH FUCKING VADER HIMSELF that he's a fucking retard.
2.All of that canon has been thrown the fuck out and at no point has any current canon shown DA FORCE giving people visions through light sabers. Espescially specific visions.
3.Activating her bloodline? Fucking Darth Vader is apparently a virgin birth of the force and he got his shit slapped constantly. And she fucking has no bloodline anything. The whole her being lukes daughter or kylo's twin sister or whatever thing is just bullshit that disney shills are floating on the net to make the movie less fucking stupid.
No one has even addressed the fact that she decided to go all fucking old school laura croft to escape death star 3.0 stupid edition instead of using her mind rape powers to get her a storm trooper uniform and escape in a ship. Bonus points they could have had her be the one to save old man ford, shaggy and the generic disney prince #1234asdgasdg bbc edition for bonus GURL POWAH points.
She is not the new luke, no matter how much the wish it were true. They got some of the story beats right but they completely screwed up the execution and she does not have the same feel. We don't care about her growth and at no point fear for her life or her limbs. She's litterally the ubiquitous invincible female character that has no struggles, no troubles, no problems, and breezes through everything.
One look at how much of an annoying cunt finn is and how he's out of his depth and broing it up with the forced poe character and how that shitty character has the funniest joke in the movie with the little robot and you see him being the new luke.
Problem is that he's a negro and he's honestly there to be make rey look like a better choice as the new face of star wars.
>>345221216
The force concept was changed to go along with the plot. It's also way too much like the star trek movies.
>>345223170
>Darth Maul working with the Rebel
He's doing his own thing, same as in Clone Wars. The main cast won't cooperate with him after what happened last season.
>>345223170
>Darth Maul working with the Rebel

>>345223559
all of the above. Luckily I was a kid during the best era of the EU and games, right before it went completely off the rails
>>345223485
The Force did not awaken with Luke. Plus we knew everything about him. We know shit and dick about Rey's past.
>Shitty side story character appearing.
Oh wait, this is Rebels anyways, which no one cares about.
>>345223601
if the Ep VIII story leaks are accurate (and who fucking knows on that) you have no idea how right you are.

Looks like Rebels is finally going to start getting good. Glad I didn't give up on it I guess, if I would have seen one more Stormtrooper get shot only to roll around the ground and not die I'd have dropped it. All the kids shit in it was really pissing me off, I know CW did shit like that too early on and progressively got more violent and dark but at least they didn't shy away from clones getting killed. The Empire is written off as being mustache twirling villains in Rebels and they still couldn't fucking show them die? Meanwhile they blew up TIEs like it was going out of style. I guess suggested violence is easier to get away with than actually brutally murdering Stormtroopers on camera.
>>345223942
within the context of Episode VII, which is the only context we have, she's a Mary Sue
She's instantly competent at everything she tries, everyone instantly likes and trusts her except for the villain, who is jealous of her, and the only time she fails, it's treated as an adorable mishap.

Why wouldn't the helmet exist? It got burned, not melted down for parts.
The force gave Luke visions through a cave. A lightsaber isn't a stretch.
She's Luke's daughter. She's like ten years younger than Emo Ren so there's no way they could be twins.

1: There's literally no reason for the helmet to not exist
2: It has not been thrown out. It is legends. That means it still influences the canon and parts can easily be re introduced. Indeed the Force giving knowledge and visions is nothing new in the canon either. It happens in TCW.
3: Anakin got his shit slapped because he refused to embrace his destiny of taking over keeping the brother and sister in balance. Everything is his fault. We know nothing of Rey. She very well could be a Skywalker. There's no reason to change the theme of the storit's. They're all familial tales based on a Sykwalker.
Rey didn't breeze through anything. Her entire life up until meeting BB-8 and Finn was a struggle. Her entire journey through TFA was a sloppy shitshow.
>>345224480
because if they don't we're never getting a thrawn movie
>>345224357
You literally see Ezra cut a Stormtrooper down with his lightsaber in the trailer.
>>345224107
She's been around the Falcon, she had intimate knowledge about the mods fat guy made to it. She mentions flying in-atmosphere after they escape Jakku.
>>345224580
thats why they have helmets
>Thrawn confirmed
>Rebels steals all the attention away from Roque One
But to be fair. Roque One got plenty of shit before and barely anyone is hyped for it to begin with.
>>345224580
I haven't watched a single ep of Rebels, I will continue not watching until I know that he or the other trainee jedi get corrupted
>>345221580
At no point has it ever been shown to have light sabers do that.
Fucking Luke was given Vaders sword and he felt fuck all.
The cave is a place, a place where the force is the light sabers are things. Them having personalities and calling to specific people is fucking stupid "YOU ARE THE ONE" bullshit that breaks canon.
2.It does not make fucking sense. You don't automagically go from just finding out boxing is a thing to good enough at fighting to take on a golden gloves boxer because he's a fucking autist with severe personality problems.
That's fucking stupid and makes no sense.
And THERE IS NOTHING TO DIG UP!
Vader was FUCKING BURNED and the Ewok homeworld became a smoldering radioactive ruin where no one with any sense will ever go.
>>345221787
All characters have the potential to be interesting in the first few moments of their introduction. They dropped the ball and now they can't do a goddamned thing with her, their supposed big bad villian, luke, leia or the fucking force itself. They can't even do anything with fucking chewbacca because he's now for some god forsaken reason rey's co-pilot.
And finn would have been good if he were another character entirely. His entire background means that he should be some kind of cross between kurt russels character from soldier and a clone trooper from the tart clone wars.
As it stands he should have been a conman or smuggler and bastard child of calrissian who's hanging out with oldman solo and chewie.
>>345223559

>>345224685
>the Ewok homeworld became a smoldering radioactive ruin where no one with any sense will ever go
no it didn't
>>345224357
But they did it in CW all the time. In fact I even recall Ahsoka decapitating like 4 people at once. Yeah cutting up droids is easier to slide than cutting up people, but in Rebels they literally shoot Stormtroopers and they just get blasted and roll around. In CW clones bit it by the thousand, getting blown up, cut apart, shot, etc. and all they had to do was start putting up a warning before every episode.
Rebels is definitely going to get darker judging by the trailer and also Ezra is probably going to turn, but that doesn't change the fact that the first season is rage inducing with the kitty shit and the second season is barely any better. Hopefully the third season is like the 4th season of CW and finally marks the point of it getting really good.
>>345224670
>I haven't watched a single ep of Rebels,

>>345224265
You didn't watch the same movie.
She's incredibly incompetent, sloppy and childish with every act she makes. Everything is undisciplined and unfocused, requiring luck and multiple attempts before it works. She can't fly without smashing into shit and wobbling like a child. She can't shoot without missing first, she can't use the force without trying multiple times, she can't fight without losing first.
There's only about 5 people she meets throughout the film. Of course most will like her, there's not much about her as a person to dislike.
>>345224685

>Disney stacked the deck
A fucking December release is stacking the deck? Lol.
Explain how you've reached the conclusion swag sales are dismal. Star Wars as a franchise has been revived in people's minds. I mean just on my facebook and tumblr Star Wars is hyped like never before. The Star Wars brand is on everything. Hell, the Blu Ray release was fucking unbelievable, I happened to be in a Target the day it came out and it was completely picked over. I know this is anecdotal, I just can't wrap my head around it.
Rey is one character. I have seen nothing but love for Finn and Poe, and of course Han and Chewie , but just on new characters alone the film adds serious weight to the franchise.
The series is only going to get bigger from here. They're splitting decades worth of backstory across multiple directors. That's why we don't know how much of the EU is in use yet, but honestly, you faggots are holding onto the past in a bad bad way.
Rey is a generic character, but you people are holding the EU up to some unbelievable level that it was never at. The star wars EU is some of the absolute worst sci fi garbage in existence. It has been the fucking White Castle burger of ltierature. Made ppopular by a movie but ultimately bite sized shit.
>>345223613
>2.All of that canon has been thrown the fuck out and at no point has any current canon shown DA FORCE giving people visions through light sabers. Espescially specific visions.
You know there's a Jedi with a power very similar to it, right?

Sorry, kylo getting gut shot(but not exploding for some retarded reason) means fuck all. If anything the clean stomach wound(but not massive whole in his torso) that he was slapping at to give him extra darkside power made him stronger.
She won because stupid bullshit.
Secondly, throwing and pulling with the force is something you have to spend years training for.
Even Darth vader couldn't do that shit without training and the force itself was his daddy.

Holy shit I'm so tired of seeing this stupid shit.
Her story is not finished. By definition, she cannot be a Mary sue, because we don't have the rest of her story to look at.
She did NOTHING well in the movie. WATCH IT.
Actually watch the movie, and notice EVERYTHING she attempts takes MULTIPLE tries. It is ALWAYS sloppy and ridiculous.
She crashes into 40 things before taking off in the Falcon. She flies like a wobbly brick and maneuvers like a child learning in a similator. She only came out ahead because she had terrain knowledge (gigantic tactical advantage) and the Force guiding it's new champion.
She got her ass pushed in by a heavily injured and tired Kylo Ren, until she finally gave in and used the Force.
She couldn't even fire a blaster FFS.
>>345224884
you can make that argument with some validity but that doesnt change the fact that she does all those things
no other character in the movie is a versatile as she is
she speaks every language, repairs everything and is an expert pilot and fighter
granted the Force would help alot with some of it, but her mary sue count remains high

>>345225353
>Sorry, kylo getting shot means fuck all
Not who you're talking to, but the movie goes a long way towards showing how wrong you are on this. They set up the bowcaster as powerful enough to complete remove foes with explosive force. Kylo no sells a direct shot and we clearly see it wound him. The film repeatedly shows him limping and in pain, it even close ups on his blood in the snow. The novelization goes a step further when talking about the wound. Nowhere does it say this makes him stronger, but we see him visibly weakened by this.
All the media surrounding kylo so far supports that he is not a master dueler, he is still a student who never finished training. He can't even properly make his own lightsaber, that's why its power fluctuates. Rey is the forces new chosen vessel, she finally lets it in and it guides her to victory. A Phantom Menace has Anakin use the force to win multiple times by itself, Luke starts deflecting shots the day he picks a sword up.
You're being fucking ridiculous, lad.

>expert fighter and pilot
Nah, she's amateur and shitty. Did you even see the movie?
Luke is more versatile. Han is more versatile.
She understands languages, whoopee doo. Every Jedi always has a specific trait they're are inherently better at within the Force than others. Some are stronger in manipulating minds, some get visions and information from objects, some can rip knowledge, memories and experience from the minds of others, some can enhance their physical capabilities much more than others, some are more resistant to influence than others, etc.
Do some research into the lore. Rey is hardly a Mary sue, compared to almost any character.

No she cannot, her story is not complete. In order to be a Mary sue, you have to be great at everything and never fail. She has two more movies in which she WILL fail and thus also fail to fit the definition of a Mary sue. Her story is not over, it's still unfolding.
She did nothing well in the movie. It was all sloppy and undisciplined.
She actually misses a lot.

Burning stuff tends to fucking melt them, and I'm pretty goddamned sure luke would have kept burning till the helmet was a fucking puddle or smashed it with a rock. Even if he didn't want it destroyed, he wouldn't have fucking left it there with the fucking ewoks. He'd throw that bitch into the sun. Because apparently the force talks to people through things and he'd not want something like that lying around.
Then why didn't vaders sword call out to look or give him visions?

1.See above. Plus ENDOR WAS DESTROYED!
2.Nope, all of that shit is thrown out. Plus..show me where light sabers had force based consciousnesses. That they could influence people or call out to them.
3.Shut up with that stupid bullshit you faggot. Rey ran from her destiny and this bitch was pulling off jedi master level shit by instinct. She should have NO skill with a light saber and not know how to do jack fucking shit.
That brother and sister force side bullshit was well after he got his shit slapped by count dooku and well after he was trained well enough to be a jedi knight.
Rey shouldn't have been able to do jack shit. At best pull off some low level clairovoiyance.
She breezed through every single goddamnend thing and I honestly want you to tell me where she was everin any real danger or needed anyone or anything. Hell, tell me.
Why does she even need to go see luke? She's already further along then luke was in the entire goddamned OT. The fuck can he teach her?

>>345226210
Individual works have to hold on their own merits. A film's story, even if it is part of a series of stories, can still be judged on its own content. TFA gets absolutely no passes from me because it's going to have sequels. ANH stands on its own, so should TFA, but it does not.
Rey is a Mary Sue until proven otherwise, and in the context of TFA alone, she will ALWYAS be a Mary Sue.

Higher then Han's. Probably like 70-80%
Very well considering he is practicing block blaster bolts at close range which is harder then blocking a saber by an opponent
Pretty well considering he was fighting a Dark Lord of the Sith, one of the most powerful force users in the galaxy, with completed Jedi AND Sith training and DECADES of experience. (and Vader wasnt injured)
Luke needed for sure once, in ANH. Rey needed help to escape Starkiller base
Very strong considering we saw him use it to destroy the DS and block blaster bolts he couldnt see
Very Strong also considering she moved a lightsaber and resisted Kylo's mindreading.

... You know, thinking about this, for a guy who claimed to shoot womp rats for a hobby from his t-16, his accuracy with a normal blaster kind of sucked. I don't think he managed to hit a single fucking storm trooper or anyone in the whole movie, even when there was a large group of them tightly formed up together.
Geez, and people criticize storm troopers.

> ENDOR WAS DESTROYED!
No it wasnt. I challenge you to find a single star wars source in Legends or NuCanon that said Endor was destroyed. Heads up, you wont find it because Star Wars always claimed it wasnt destroyed.
In Legends its because the Rebellion went in immediate "lick our wounds" mode and took wreckage of the Death Star to repair battle damage to their capital ships. (This is mentioned in "Truce at Bakura")

Exactly, that's the point. Because only Han and Chewy (and Lando) know how to fly the thing because it flies so differently
>Higher than Han's

Go rewatch the movie
Again though, much lower than Rey's
>very well
He gets hit by several shots. Only manages to block a couple by doing a very basic force technique that even younglings know how to do.
>Pretty well
Vader toyed with him the entire time, go watch the movie again. Vader is trying in Return, but in Empire he's just lightly swatting away every single one of Luke's attacks. Luke doesn't manage shit on him, while Rey beat Luke's star pupil.

Thrawn wins in all his battles but 1 in which he only loses because Lando just happened to be the battle, something Thrawn could never have predicted.

Do you not know how a major movie company can stack the deck in the favor of their movie? How they bought litterally every goddamned major movie house on the planet and even kicked tarantino out of some places to show TFA?
How everyone was either paid off or too terrified to say the movie was shit.
The millions spent on pr alone?
Secondly, the brand being everywhere doesn't mean it's being bought.
Even the Lego TFA game is seeing no interest and the shitty prequel Star Wars games flew off the shelves.

And KYLO WIPED OUT THE OTHER FUCKING JEDI if this weren't the fucking case, if it wasn't canon that this cunt is supposedly broken powerful in the force then the fight between him and finn and rey should have just been a 5 second long murder scene.
This is stupid.
>>345226210
Within context of the movie, she is a 100% mary sue. And for all intents and pourposes, her story is complete.

You're confused and ignorant. Endor did not explode or even get touched in canon. Many people have told you this in the thread.
It's not the object that has conciousness, it's the Force using the object as a conduit to speak through. Duh.
Whether you like it or not, the light sister and dark brother shit is canon and the reason why everything in SW happened is because Anakin refused to stay and keep them in check.
Rey did nothing close to the level of a Jedi master. Luke is not the limit of the force. "Alright guys, we have Luke now, no one ever can be as good or powerful, ever and ever hurrrrdurr" This is not how it goes.
She is terrible with a saber. It's easy as balls to deflect sword swings dude. Have you ever fought with blades IRL? You only need a functioning brain to block a stroke with a blade. She was retreating and running the ENTIRE FIGHT. Plus, again, Kylo was not trying to kill her. He wanted to test and train her.
Yes the brother/sister stuff happened after he got taken down a peg but that's the point is we've seen it all and know that all now. We haven't seen Rey's story yet. It's still unfolding so we don't know, but what are you gonna say when she has a huge failing in the next two films?
She was in real danger the whole time and made it out of every situation by the skin of her large teeth.

I think Rey and Kylo are pretty cool characters as long as they keep giving fuck-me looks at each other. To be honest.
>>345227974
Well, not exactly 'kicking' early on but yeah he's still around.
Come on, how are you fucking retards excited for this? Don't you know that this is a very petty attempt of Disney at validating the new canon even baiting you faggots with the prospect of being back old characters, even if it means botching them and their stories, just to see them being brought back and having you guys say "they are apart of muh story again"...
I thought the whole point of the new canon was to make new characters and stories in the SW. Legends was good, but let it stay in the past, and bring me some new Star Wars stuff.
Hate seeing Star Wars and the EU being raped this way.

There are entire fucking sections of geekdom devoted to tearing guys like that down.
And when guys are gary sues they manage to be entertaining by being super over the top and self aware or simply just working within context of the movie.
Rey is the bad kind of mary sue that seems like it was written by and for teenage girls and litters the net and young adult sections of book stores.
Know what. Name a popular Gary Stu from a major work that wasn't set up well. Just one.

Then you were being retarded.
From the outset they've said they wanted new stuff as well as being able to pick and choose the good stuff from the old EU so they didn't have to deal with the shit stuff.
>>345227970
You're directly contradicting canon with your bullshit.
Within the context of the movie, everything she does is a massive failure and her success is an accident. She needs help to do everything. The Force is really up her ass guiding every second of her sloppy, unfocused life. Even by the first movies events, she's by definition NOT a Mary sue.
>>345227974
There's a possibility he's still alive even up to TFA.
Apparently Leia sensed his presence at one point on Naboo where he fought Obi-wan and Qui-gon, meaning he's possibly still alive.

If you noticed, I was simply answering things, even if it supported your points.
>Exactly, that's the point. Because only Han and Chewy (and Lando) know how to fly the thing because it flies so differently
Its because why would Luke ever fly it? He never has a reason too. It doesnt mean he couldnt, he just never has a chance. Heads up, even Leia co-pilots it at one point.
>Go rewatch the movie
I saw it earlier this year. He has lower accuracy then Rey yes, but he actually has a higher one the Han. He gets a lot of kills, more then Han, including a really impressive shot of destroying the controls to a door on the other side of the hanger bay Luke is in.
>He gets hit by several shots. Only manages to block a couple by doing a very basic force technique that even younglings know how to do.
Ya, younglings that have been training for potentially 2-3 years. Luke didnt even know the Force existed the day before that.
But the point is that the first time you ever see him using the lightsaber is that he is doing something a non-force user couldnt do. Not that he is an elite swordsmen. Just better then a non force user
>Vader toyed...
I also never said Luke was amazing and held his own. I said he did well considering his opponent. Of course Luke will lose but he did well before he was defeated.
Meanwhile Rey beats a tired and wounded person who hasnt even finished his training yet.
This isnt a dig on Luke, or show Rey is overpowered, what is shows is you are compareing apples to oranges.
>The list of things
I was wrong on the number of times thanks but you are wrong also
Sand people, Trash, Death Star are the only once worth counting. And Rey got plenty of help
>Youngling Tech
The DS was not a youngling technique, and the other one, again, Luke literally learned about the Force less then 24 hours ago.

Technically Luke gets an insane amount of kills considering what happens to the Death Star. Still second to the billions destroyed earlier in the film, but he's a close second.
>>345229006
Being a pilot, saber fighting, firing blasters, using mind tricks.
Did you even SEE her smash into 2 or 3 constructs with the Falcon before taking off? Not I mention dragging across the sand, wobbling like a child in the air, making too tight and uncontrolled turns. I mean, she was just awful.
Every second of the fight with Kylo had her parrying a swing while retreating.
She misses a direct shot with a blaster, gets the next couple, then misses a bunch more. She misses Kylo about 59 times whIle running, until he stasis locks her.
I mean, I felt bad for how undisciplined and sloppy she behaved.
>>345223321
they're probably going to put the vong canon again.

>>345229379
Kyle is already dead. DEAD.
They gave his design to Kanan in Rebels, and now he even has Kyle's full beard in Season 3.
They gave his stormtrooper-gone-good story to Finn.
They gave his role as a guy who helped steal plans for the Death Star to Rogue One (which is also appropriating Jan Ors into Jyn Oreso).
He is GONE. They have dissected almost everything out of his corpse that they can and he will NEVER return.
Make peace with it and move on, like I have.
>>345228032
Okay you need to read that book series again. The Empire is a joke in that setting. As in the New Republic is freaking out when he sends 1 Star Destroyer anywhere because he has so few left they realize its a big deal.
The entire point of the first two books is that Thrawn is desperate and needs to capture more capital ships just to survive.
In every battle Thrawn is commanding, he not only wins, he butchers his opponents. The best Republic commanders are only able to organize orderly retreats. The sole exception is his defeat in the first book which is because Lando just happens to know the codes to Lando's mole miners and was in the same area. Even then Thrawn could have won the battle but he knew the cost wasnt worth it so he ordered a retreat at the confusion of his men.
>>345229218
i didn't think anyone else read that, good taste.
this was the best character

>>345229168
>Its because why would Luke ever fly it? He never has a reason too. It doesnt mean he couldnt, he just never has a chance. Heads up, even Leia co-pilots it at one point.
co-piloting is not the same as flying.
And at one point in the movie Han tells Luke to fuck off because he wouldn't know what anything does as he's looking around in the cockpit
>a, younglings that have been training for potentially 2-3 years
Some of them are literally 6 years old, so no, it's a very early technique to learn.
Plus Luke only manages to do it successfully once after getting hit a shit ton
>Just better then a non force user
Barely, he still sucks ass with a lightsaber in 4 and 5.
>I said he did well considering his opponent
No, he didn't, in the slightest.
Vader NEVER had the intention of killing Luke. He wants to freeze Luke. And when he can't do that he wants to talk Luke into his side of things. There is never one point in the fight Vader goes aggressive against Luke. Luke didn't hold his own at all, he couldn't do shit.
Rey beat an expert combatant who had been trained with a lightsaber for over a decade.
Rey is a mary sue.
>Sand people, Trash, Death Star are the only once worth counting
The cantina is absolutely worth counting, they wouldn't have made it out of there at all without Han.
And Marey Sue never needed help to survive, not once.
>The DS was not a youngling technique
He barely guided the missile at all. The guided the trajectory of it, the missile itself did the moving. He just pointed it.
It's basically a force push, very beginner technique.

Then how did she learn all of that force stuff without light saber?
I mean, if the force needs the light saber to give her power then why in the shit did she end up with beyond OT(the only real canon)level jedi force mastery without it?
>Whether you like it or not,
Yeah I know. I'm saying that we are vader and rey when they are both untrained.
And rey who has no connection to anyone or thing jedi/sith/force on her planet was able to automagically pick up force techniques and levels of power that not even force jesus vader himself was able to on his own.
This is bullshit.
>Rey did nothing close to the level of a Jedi master.
What are jedi master levels of power in your opinion. Remember, OT is noncanon.
>She is terrible with

2.Someone who is a master at sword play or even well trained at it and wants to fuck you, someone who is untrained, up in a one on one fight? THEY WILL FUCK YOU UP.
>Yes the brother/sister stuff happened
Within context of TFA? She's a broken Mary Sue and her story, which is supposed to be tied to the star wars universe and her growth I mean AWAKENING in the force is effectively over. She's already force master, she's a master pilot, she's a mistress of the lightsaber, she can speak every language, she's perfect with a blaster, she's perfect. There is NOWHERE for this bitch to go.
>She was in real danger the whole time and made it
No she wasn't. She got new skills and techniques out of nowhere that protected her ass. And according to you DA FORCE was protecting her ass from second one.

That story and scene is told from an Imperial Stormtrooper saying he hoped that happen and he was corrected in saying the Rebellion prevented that from happening.

"His fellow patrons crush his last happy thought about Endor by revealing that as a myth, that most of the debris was vaporized during the violent explosion of the Death Star and the rest was intercepted by the Rebels, preventing any harm to the forest moon."
Guess what. There are stories that occur literally YEARS after the battle of Endor that sure you are wrong. In the Thrawn Trilogy Leia literally lands the Falcon on Endor for safe keeping.
So again. Please post a single Legends or NuCanon story that claims it was destroyed. Otherwise fuck off you idiot
>>345230034
He was being extremely aggressive. He was trying to subdue her by force.

Nah, she barely did shit. She got a burst of unexpected and surprising strength after being pushed back the entire fight. Kylo wasn't trying to kill her. He wanted to train her.

I guess you missed all the running shots she took while missing, or the ones she missed when firing at Kylo in the forrest. Disregarding those, 90% accuracy out of less than 25 total shots is garbage.

It's not just one way or a other. You can learn through meditation on the force, or directly if it's speaking to you through a place or object. BOTH happen.

Actually Sidious specifically states Jakks was important to the galaxy a thousand years ago, and will be again. He has Snoke (at least we assume it's Snoke) guarding an underground facility on Jakku prior to his death in Jedi. The facility is one of the reasons the battle of Jakku happened, and was destroyed by the Empire during it in an attempt to keep it secret.
The rest of your shit is dumb. She's clearly sloppy and undisciplined in the movie, taking multiple attempts to succeed.

Its not the same as flying yes, and Han does tell Han to fuck off yes. But that doesnt change the point that we never see Luke fly because he never has a chance, not because he cant. No where is it suggested that ONLY Han and Chewie and Lando can. Thats the point I was making.
Ya, and Jedi kids are taken as early as a year old. Look, im not saying Luke was the best ever or Rey is not over powered. Just that what Luke did was impressive considering his limited training and what a non-force user can do.
What he does in 4 and 5 is far more impressive then anything a non-force user could do.
Here is the thing you got to remember, if Luke was so bad, Vader should have been able to disarm and defeat Luke in 30 seconds. Luke never had a chance of victory against someone like Vader, he cant even make it a draw, but Luke is just powerful enough that Luke can survive. Considering Vader's skill, that is impressive.
Meanwhile Rey, someone we already know is skilled in QCQ defeated a very tired and injured man who did not want to kill her. Im not saying Rey isnt a mary sue, Im saying you are comparing apples to oranges here.
Han didnt do shit in the cantina. He pointed out stormtroopers were coming and Luke and Ben just fuck off. If you mean the Falcon escape, still not a valid point because who is to say Luke couldnt just fly the Falcon himself. No reason to believe he couldnt.
The entire shot is impressive. He has to fire a missile he has never fired before and doesnt know how fast it can move or turn, from a ship he had never flown before, at crazy speeds, and he does this without a targeting computer.
It is a very impressive shot. A youngling would not be able to do it unless they were powerful in the Force, like Anakin. There is no class taught to younglings on how to redirect a high speed torpedo into the literal perfect angle that even a few degrees off would result in a failure.

It's because he can't.
It's implied he can't.
The only reason he can fly an x-wing is because it's explained, in the movie, that it's very similar to the ships he flew back on tatooine.
Luke didn't manage anything impressive force wise the first or 2nd movie. Very basic techniques.
Rey managed knight / master level techniques in the first movie.
>If Luke was so bad, Vader should have been able to disarm and defeat Luke in 30 seconds
Watch it again, Vader is toying with him. Watch closely how much effort he puts into Luke. There's nothing impressive about it.

A lightsaber feels nothing like any other weapon in the galaxy. It's like someone that's skill with a rapier picking up an axe to use. They'll be good at dodging but that's it.

>You fucking cucks and your complete ignorance of how a ship should look while flying.
>You didn't even acknowledge the rest, but I guess wobbly flying, crashing into 3 things while taking off, and smashing into shit while flying is "expert" to you.
She flew something that needs two people to even take off and has been personalized and changed so much that less then a handful of people in existence should have even an inkling of how to fly it by herself.
Oh and instead of hitting the ground and dying or crashing into some old ruins and exploding, she was pulling off maneuvers that not even tie fighters could pull off. BY HERSELF.
>Plus, Rey grew up with the Falcon sitting right there the whole time.
Know what would make that lie based around a stupid unfunny nod to the audience line work?
If the bitch actually LIVED in the fucking millenium falcon. The thing can take off at any time, it makes perfect fucking sense.
She needs the parts to fix it so she can go look for her parents or whatever. ETC ETC.
As it stands, it's totally out of left field.
>Nah, she barely did shit.
Being stronger with a weapon you don't know how to use doesn't make the fact that you're fighting someone who is stronger and is an expert at using said weapon instantly suck.

Her pretending to be scared and shaking the gun but hitting everything that moved towards her?
Yeah we all saw that.

Going from not even knowing it is a thing to being able to fucking attempt it and get it right ON ANYONE is a jedi master level ability.
For fucks sake, you think the mere fact that the movie acknowledges that she is scared or kind of fucks it up at first is some major fucking feat and lets them handwaive away the instant mastery.

She didn't even fucking know the force existed or that it was real and in three minutes is a force mistress on top of being a mistress at everything else.
And what place with the force spoke to her?
The force is everywhere remember. If the force wants to speak to someone it can do it at any time, doesn't need a special object. And places like where luke went to train are special in that they are conctrations of force based on the planets life, not the force itself.
And if jakku is so fucking important and force sensitive then where are the other force masters on that planet? Bitch should be doing force backflips and throwing around ships. Not waiting till she goes to the cantena on another planet and finds vader's light saber.
>>Rey who has no connection
>Actually Sidious specifically states Jakks was important to the galaxy a thousand years ago, and will be again. He has Snoke (at least we assume it's Snoke) guarding an underground facility on Jakku prior to his death in Jedi. The facility is one of the reasons the battle of Jakku happened, and was destroyed by the Empire during it in an attempt to keep it secret.

That is being pulled out of your ass. Ya he doesnt know what the shield generator button looks like while Rey does but thats because Rey has been on the ship before and worked on it. It was literally Luke's first time on it. There still is no reason to believe he couldnt fly it though.
>Luke didn't manage anything impressive force wise the first or 2nd movie. Very basic techniques.
>Rey managed knight / master level techniques in the first movie.
I agree with this. Minus the DS shot, nothing Luke does is Knight level. But considering he has less then a day of training in ANH, Luke does well. That has always been my point. Rey is even more impressive but Im not talking about that.
>Vader fight
Everyone knows Vader is not trying his hardest. But because of Vader's experience, even at half assing it, Vader should have ended the fight in 30 seconds. He let it continue to test how strong Luke was. And Vader was impressed, he said several times he was impressed with Luke.
>CQC
Of course the lightsaber is different, and that shows in the battle, she does fucking terrible with it. She has her lightsaber going all over the place, constantly overcorrecting. But because of her previous experience at CQC she knows how to read and counter her opponent. She counters poorly, but she can do it.
>Injured man
Yes he does. In the fight with Finn, he has to break away 3 times to catch his breath. He movement is very sloppy, he is missing his even when Rey doesnt counter correctly, breathing heavy. Also he only loses in the end when he stops fighting to talk to her instead.

>>345232507
>How many has Rey piloted?
Well assuming that she knew what was wrong with the MF when she got on board, fixed it up in time to escape into space and go into lightspeed, was able to work-around the thing almost instantaneously impressing Han and became a master at piloting it and took the ship as a hand-me-down from Han's hand, I'd say she not only fly those ships, she probably worked at a plant facility making them, test drived, and got her hands on a couple of illegally modified ones out of Han's knowledge.
>>345233342
Where's your proof in the movie that she flew any?
With Luke's ability to fly the x-wing we actually got a line from him saying it was similar to ships he flew a lot.
Because that's called good writing.

>Star Wars fans, Abrams fans. Your logic doesn't make fucking sense. Taarantino has always had fucking prime treatment by that theater and all they did was ask him to reschedule a fucking day. You're so biased it isn't funny.

Are you shitting me right now?

Ah, the old "Supplemental material makes a shit movie less shit" thing.

>living around and studying a ship, whilst flying others can't explain how she was able to fly through Falcon
K, moron.
>maneuvers the tie fighters couldn't pull off
No, they could pull off those maneuvers. They don't because they don't have the HUGE advantage of knowing the terrain. Rey knows the terrain like the back of her hand. If they knew it too, they'd be able to easily keep up.
Rey would not have left the planet even if any ship could do it. She was told to stay and wait and so that's what she was doing.
Welding a blade is a thing literally anyone can do. You don't need to know how, to block swings. It's just natural instinct. She was parrying and retreating the entire time, not to mention she grew up on u forgiving Jakku with a staff. She clearly knows weapon melee combat.
>not knowing it's a thing
She had literally just ripped knowledge and experience from Kylo's probing mind. I'm certain that's a valid explanation for how she knew what a mind trick was, despite having to try 3 times.

>>345236787
What? The ones I'm talking about are books and comics written AFTER the disney-canon. They are currently canon and one just came out on the 11th, Aftermath: Life debt, which has Leia and Han both taking the Falcon Solo (pun intended hehehehe) at different times.
>>345235650
>Great, more ignorant bullshit. You obviously have no idea about SW lore. A co-pilot is never a requirement. FFS.
It's 100% canon in every single piece of media you can even imagine.
>K, moron.
She canonically lives in a downed At-AT in the middle of the fucking desert. At no point in the movie does it even hint that she lives near or knows that the falcon can even take off till that one single scene.
If she lived in the fucking thing or we were shown pieces of it in the background around her home you'd actually have something. But now, you're just pushing shitty supplemental bullshit as canon to handwaive bad writing.
Hell if she lived next to it and flew it then she should have never once crashed the goddamned thing.
>No, they could pull off those maneuvers.
Yeah but we can infer that she doesn't know the terrain from the perspective of a ship she never(or barely)flew. It's fucking stupid.
>>345237328
>Rey would not have left the planet
That's not what I'm saying. And that entire plot point is goddamned retarded because she leaves fucking ANYWAY and doesn't actually fucking go back because..has to take a light saber to a man she's never met for reasons.
I'm saying that if they wanted her to be so intimate with the falcon and make it and her flying ability and tech headery part of her character, they should have made her LIVE in the fucking Falcon and spend most of her young life fixing and bartering for parts to fix it. Makes her more human, shows she cares about something and fixes multiple fucking plot holes.
And knowing that a bit of highway is 5 miles long with now curves does not handwaive away her doing the equivalent of hopping into a macktruck designed to be driven with two steering wheels and performing stunts and at the last second spinning it around and driving it backwards and out maneuvering and shooting at the men and women who were piloting what are the equivalent of stunt bikes. And said stunt bike were simply going straight ahead and being out maneuvered.
>Welding a blade is a thing literally anyone can do.
From the way you talked before I thought you actually knew something about sword combat. You're right, anyone can use a sword you have to actually have training to not be instantly killed by someone who is an acknowleged master of it.
Just like anyone can throw a punch. Can you, who obviously knows how to throw a punch, get into the ring with mayweather and duke it out. I mean if you closed your eyes and concentrated for a second I'm sure you'd get strong and skilled enough to punch him out.
>She had literally just ripped knowledge and experience from Kylo's probing mind.
That...that doesn't make any fucking sense. It just doesn't. It doesn't even fit in any form of fucking canon of star wars you can imagine. It's litterally abrams limping to the fucking barn with some retarded combination of Alias and Star Trek.
>>345236697
Actually there are 2 arguments. 1, Its a wiki page that anyone can edit, including posting things incorrectly.
The other thing is that minimum refers to operate correctly. Rey points out she needs a co-pilot to manage the shields correctly. So because she doesnt have a co-pilot, she cant modify the shields, maybe she cant fire torpedoes, maybe manage the sensors, or the hyperdrive.
The thing he we dont know what the co-pilot on the Falcon actually does.
>>345237328
She says in the movie she has previously flown in the past and that she has been on the Falcon and worked on it before.
>>345216242
I've just kind of decided to ignore disneys shit. The EU may have been garbage straight from the ass of fanfiction sometimes, but it still felt like star wars. Now it's been turned into some kind of gay disney princess shit. It's like they only watched the first movie and decided they knew what the series was about.
>>345237170
The story in the PT was fine, it needed a bit of tweaking, less greenscreen, more practical effects, and better acting. The visuals looked great but you get wooden performances from shitty directing from a director who is not known for being good with actors, trying to do everything in front of a greenscreen, which you need to remember was fairly new, innovative stuff. The over attention to children was a mistake as well. Remove Jar jar, film in real sets in real locations, direct the actors performances better, smooth down the politics stuff, rewrite dialogue and you've got a superb trilogy.
>>345237465
Dude, chewie manages litterally everything else to keep it from falling apart

When I was an edgy teen I hated the PT, but after a while I came to realize it was alright.
>>345237792
So we agreed that the co-pilot isnt needed to fly it. Just to keep it running. But that doesnt mean if the co-pilot isnt doing his job for 10 minutes the Falcon will explode.
Let me put it this way. the F-15 needs 2 crew members to operate. But only 1 flies. Not having the other guy wont prevent it from flying, but it wont be able to operate correctly.

Without a co-pilot who knew the ship inside and out, she would be essentially sitting in the drivers seat of an engineless and wheel less ferrari and making engine noises.
>>345238269
They do have access points for droids where they can control that type of shit on other ships. That's been shown a lot. If they changed one thing about it with the compressor or whatever, than they could have added that as well and I think a Droid would be able to figure it out pretty quick if he hooked up to the ship.
>>345238535
They'd have to re-design a ship that's been personally tailored and jerry rigged by three people over decades.
rd-d2 could do a few things but he could not co-pilot that thing. Too many systems it was locked out of and didn't exist in the first place.
You'd have to nearly redesign the thing from the ground up, and at that point you might as well not fly the thing in the first place.
>>345238815
They didn't want to fly it in the first place. They only got in it because the other ship got blown up.
I'm not even saying that's a good solution, but it's better than just hand waving the shit away by saying she knows ships or whatever they said.
>>345237427
Boy I love absolutely destroying your ignorant replies.
>the plot is retarded because people shouldn't be able to change their minds
HAHA OKAY
Stop making shitty comparisons of real life driving to piloting a starship in a universe with magic. It doesn't work. She's flown before, so has knowledge of the terrain from all angles, ground and sky.
Did Mayweather just get shot in the stomach after murdering a family member? If so, I think I could take advantage of that long enough to not get knocked out, even if he was trying to knock me out and not simply subdue me so he could train me. Which he would be doing, if you want your SHITTY analogies to fit.
>that doesn't make sense
Lol holy fucking shit. Let's go through the scene.
>Kylo Ren using the Force to prove Rey mind
>he sees the island in her dreams, he sees her thoughts and feelings
>his entire technique revolves around probing minds and ripping out the information like he did with Po Dameron
>she starts resisting and probing his mind instead halfway through it, revealing he's afraid and insecure about himself in relation to his grandfather, Darth Vader and she tells him as much
>there's no possible way that while gaining this knowledge from HIS mind, reversing his technique of ripping information from minds, she also gained some force technique knowledge in the way of something like...idk...mind tricks? Yeah totally impossible
Keep setting em up and I'll keep knocking em down.
>>345238505
Look the only one being stupid is yourself sense people have flown the Falcon without a co-pilot before. We have even seen characters turn on the Falcon without a co-pilot in the movies. (ESB and ANH)
Co-pilot is a job that is needed to operate correctly. It is not needed to take off though. It is not needed to fly. It is needed to do things that arnt flying. Shooting guns, hyperdrive, sensors, shields, etc...
Flying is the one thing you dont need a co-pilot for.
W
>>345239017
It was a stupid throwaway joke line put there to make the reveal of the falcon OH SO FUNNY AND EPIC.
>>345239106
Yes you can turn it on, then get in the pilot seat and do fuck all because the gas peddle for the thing is in the other seat.
Flying it no that's a one person job. The pilot.
Getting it off the ground into the air and keeping it in the air? That's a co-pilots job.
>>345214238
GRAND ADMIRAL THRAWN REPORTING
OF COURSE
Just to put a stop to all this bullshit about the Falcon. Rey tells Han in a Force Awakens that he'll need a co-pilot when they are escaping the death gangs.
He doesn't say he doesn't need one, just that he has one in Chewie. So can we fucking stop already.
>>345239410
Look, you need to fucking stop arguing this. There are multiple canon sources that show a single person PILOTING the FALCON from a point A to be. Not just turning it on and sitting get there, but actually working and flying it. Fuck off.
>>345239410
To bad the lore disagrees with you. Again people have flown the Falcon solo before.
So clearly everything that is needed for the Falcon to fly is on the pilot side and anything extra is on the opposite side. Much like an F-15
>>345239091
>Stop making
Magic doesn't handwaive stupid plot. People don't just give infinite leeway to stupid bullshit because there's magic involved you retard. It's an apt comparison and you're just being a sore cunt about it.
>Did Mayweather just get shot in the stomach
STOP COMPARING REAL WORLD STUFF TO STUFF THAT HAPPENS IN A MAGIC UNIVERSE they say before doing the exact same thing.
And no, see, mayweather was shot with a grenade launcher but instead of being blown up, he simply got what is the eqiuvalent of a none fatal stabbing to his midsection. He's still very fucking dangerous in a one on one fight.
>>Kylo Ren using the Force to prove Rey mind
Nigga. The force doesn't give people telepathy. That's just abrams using star trek bullshit in the star wars universe.
>>he sees the island in her dreams, he sees her thoughts and feelings
What fucking island? The fuck are you talking about?
>>his entire technique revolves around probing minds and ripping out the information like he did with Po Dameron
Fucking retarded. If that kind of shit existed then every sith in existence should have that ability and there would be no secrets.
>>she starts resisting and probing his mind instead halfway through it, revealing he's afraid and insecure about himself in relation to his grandfather, Darth Vader and she tells him as much
Still fucking stupid.
>>there's no possible way that while gaining this knowledge from HIS mind, reversing his technique of ripping information from minds, she also gained some force technique knowledge in the way of something like...idk...mind tricks? Yeah totally impossible
>Keep setting em up and I'll keep knocking em down.
Look my entire argument is that the plot is stupid and you're sitting there using the plot of the movie that I'm saying is bad to defend the bad ness of the movie. I know what happened in the movie. My contention is that what happened in the movie is stupid and wrong.
>>345233476
You have the worst reading comprehension of anyone I have seen on this board. Fucking congrats you spergelord. Tarantino's film had been showing for a week, Disney was about to drop Star Wars, the most hyped moved of the fucking decade, deal w/ it.
>I'm arguing that the plot is retarded.
And doing a fucking terrible job of it. If you just said the film is shit I'd have left you alone, but you're using fucking retarded arguments to back up your shitty opinion.
>Ah, the old "supplemental material makes a shit movie less shit" thing.
More like the old "supplemental material explains something cut for time constraints in an already 2 hour movie", I know faggots like you hate this because you use anything that isn't spelled out to push your headcanon that LOL RETARDED PLOTHOLE happened, but this is literally you getting mad your theory for why the movie is retarded has been proven retarded.
>>345239724
Post them. If it's post TFA then I'll disregard them.
guys stop the fucking arguing already
you are all retarded losers here
>>345240189
The best example is Aftermath being both NuCanon but written before TFA.
>>345240183
The hype was all manufactured by disney. And they needed those theatres to fatten their bottom line
You at no point have actually made a good argument. Your arguments are "this is what happnened in the movie deal with it' over and over again.
The only evidence that the stuff you're talking about was cut for time is coming from your ass.
It was never a part of the fucking film in the first fucking place you lying fucktard.
It is clearly a piece of supplemental material created to make stupid shit not stupid.
For fucks sake 99% of the entire fucking movie is explained or expanded upon in supplemental material. Not just little shit designed to sell crap like what kind of stuff does the little ball robot like to do in it's spare time.
ENTIRE GODDAMNED CHUNKS OF THE STORY AND BASIC CHARACTER MOTIVATIONS
That's not good.
That's not right.
That's the sign of trash media.
>>345240880
Yeah, Disney manufactured the near global hype surrounding this film. Disney execs made this thread and popualted it with workers.
>Your arguments are "this is what happened in the movie"
Typically because you don't seem to understand what happened in the movie, and misconceive it as plot holes.
I have named one thing cut from the film, there is footage in the trailers that doesn'tmake it into the film centered at the jedi temple. They cut those out because they featured Luke and wanted to save his appearance for the end. These scenes have been added into the next episode. This can be looked up, so calling me a liar makes you look like the fucking retard this entire thread has proven you to be.
You might be the most spastic retard on this entire board. Keep posting.
>>345240078
It's only stupid bullshit because you're an idiot which refuses to accept it.
I was simply clarifying your shitty analogy and making it fit.
Bowcasters never showed people getting blown up. Knocked back, sure, but never exploded.
>the Force doesn't give people telepathy
Yes it does...there were at least two force techniques brought from EU into the film. One was force stasis, the other is information ripping. Both are from various sources but most notably from KOTOR. Revan used the Force to rip the knowledge of anything from the minds of anyone. He could speak any language by probing the mind if there who speak it. He also used force stasis a lot.
>what fucking island
Watch the movie, idiot. When he's probing her he says he sees her dreams. She dreams of an island in an ocean. The island is foreshadowing to the one Luke is on at the end of the film.
>if that kind of shit existed Sith would know everything
They pretty much do, but it's not something anyone can do. As stated earlier in the thread there are specific force techniques that specific people are very proficient in. It's likely Kylo has great proficiency in this specific technique.
I'll never find rebels as engaging as the clone wars. Funny how clones are so much more relatable, maybe because they aren't children.
>>345241586
They're not children in Rebels either. Only Ezra is a child, and if you've seen the S3 previews, he's grown up a bit to a teenager with a new look and everything. They actually age and advance their characters in the show unlike almost every other cartoon, namely Simpsons.
>>345241489
>Yeah, Disney manufactured the near global hype surrounding this film.
Yes
Exactly.
>Typically because you don't seem to understand what happened in the movie, and misconceive it as plot holes.
I know what happened. It's just ranges from obvious plot contrivances and just plain stupidity.
My problem with the overall plot and I explain that. You continue to try to explain away things using the plot which I'm quite plainly telling you is bad for multiple reasons.
>I have named one thing cut from the film, there ifootage in the trailers that doesn'tmake it into the film centered at the jedi temple. They cut those out because they featured Luke and wanted to save his appearance for the end. These scenes have been added into the next episode. This can be looked up, so calling me a liar makes you look like the fucking retard this entire thread has proven you to be.
I don't have to call you a liar when it's quite obvious.
>You might be the most spastic retard on this entire board. Keep posting.
Any you're an obvious shill.
>>345241524
Fucking stupid. Look the EU for the most part and all of the over hyped kotor are trash and non canon now.
You and your ilk are no feverishly pouring over the EU and wookipedia to try and explain away the horrid writing and stupid plotting of the TFA while disney's cronies are all but REWRITING the movie in supplemental material to make it not stupid garbage.
Its' obvious
Oh..yeah..that island. I still can't recall what happens. And wait...why didn't she just use DA FORCE and DA MAGICAL FORCE LIGHT SABER to just find luke? Why did they need the map?
Sorry, that shit is retarded. There are so many unexplained things in the movie that breaks canon completely and simply defies common sense. Kylo fuccboi Ren reading minds is one of them.
>>345242556
Okay you've stopped arguing and have just gone into the realm of insults. I'll accept that as your admission of defeat.
>>345242896
Dude, you've been insulting me the entire time.
>>345241586
That's because you are remember the entirety of Clone Wars. The first couple of seasons as a whole for Clone Wars were pretty bad.
>>345242556
It doesn't matter if the EU is the canon. They specifically have it as legends to take content from and integrate it into the new canon, which is exactly what they've done. Force stasis exists in TFA, whereas before it was ONLY in the EU.
>but wait why didn't she use DA FORCE to find Luke
Because Luke does not want to be found. If they could just scry for him, fucking Snoke or Kylo would have done it. He's on an ancient Jedi planet steeped in the Force. He can use it to hide. You're just ignorant and all your "plot holes" are easily explained with excess lore knowledge. If you're only focusing on information from the film, it's a bit confusing, but still possible to suss out if you aren't retarded.
>>345243038
This. Start from S3 in TCW. 1 and 2 are shite.
>>345243228
>Because Luke does not want to be found
in the prequels Sheev constantly masked his own force aura enough to trick the entire Jedi order. In the EU, him and maul even chilled out in front of the Jedi temple.
>>345214238
At first i was hype, but now im sad.
Why?
Because cant you see it guys?
They are gonna turn him into a joke character.
Unless they use him conservatively like Vader and just have him wreck their shit big time once in a blue moon.
>>345243228
Sorry, they aren't taking from the EU. They are using the EU, the thing that they completely rendered non-canon before, to handwaive the stupid shit that was done in TFA.
Secondly, BITCH SAW HIS FUCKING ISLAND. If she could see that while he was masking himself then it should have been easy to find him using her AWAKENED FORCE POWERS
>>345243609
I hope not, but currently I'm more worried about him being introduced so early into the timeline. Thrawn is at his best when he's in total control, not some filler for tarkin.
>>345225832
Hard to get a (you) in Star Wars fandom threads, I guess. Oh well. You can have mine, at least.
