Random Star Wars Thoughts

[Darth Logos]

Logos throwin' shade 

I'm displeased at the rumors that the 2nd stand-alone is about Han. And more so about the rumored casting of the character. Albeit, Hail, Caesar sucked on the whole, but Alden Ehrenreich's character was the worst thing about the movie. Granted, it could have been another case of "Anakin Skywalker" where a good actor cannot trump a bad script and worse direction. But still.......<puke>



New question:

If the 501st is supposed to be stationed on the first Deathstar, and they are the last division of clone troops, wouldn't they all be as old (roughly) as Rex, Wolf, and Gregor are depicted in SWR? Did Disney retcon the beloved 501?

It is not my point. I am not some elitist hardcore fan (well, i am but i do not want they make a movie me  ) ... i just wanted some originality ...

Honestly, a big "deathstar" destroyed by a x-wing pilote that fired on a weak point after flying in a canyon ... just before the destruction of the rebe... hem resistance secret base ...
Honestly, heros escaping from a desert planet with the falcon ... and hiding themselves after the falcon was captured ...
... a cantina ... a dark knight ... a holographic great leader ... the destruction of a planet as demonstration ...


Ep. 2 was definitively more original ...

Does anyone like me, remember Centerpoint station(Corellian sector) ?  i.e. big ass gun blasts the living crap out of things from many light-years distant. Cough.. Cough.. Copied. choke ..huugghhhh.. Sorry had something stuck in my throat.
But seriously is anything original in "nEw FilM". perhaps I should remove BBL from my sig , it seems they are doing it anyway just at at a different timescale missing out lots of the best bits

Episode 2 was horrible, well, mostly horrible. Wasted the clone wars timeline, had to be salvaged(to a point) by an animated series. From what I'm gathering, 3 out of the 7 are beloved, 3 out of the remaining 4 are frowned upon, and the jury is still out on TFA. I enjoyed episode 3, but as I've stated before, Darth Maul was wasted. Jedis just being total badasses was not used to its fullest. TFA was similar to A New Hope in that it was comfy enough to not be a total failure. Hardest part of anything, books, films, is introducing new characters to a strong fanbase and having them being accepted. Rey seems to have the stamp of approval, but I don't believe she HAS to be tied into any past character. I hope the surface of the story's potential has barely been scratched, cuz it has the ability to separate itself into its own

You don't have to study the roots to appreciate the shade of the tree, but they are still there and as important.

Do not worry yourself when others come to understand in their own way. Mind that you come to understand in yours.

Ep.2 is ........ Ep.2 LOL

You know, i am a fan of this galaxy far far away ... I really like the 6 first movies and i do not dislike the 7th. Just disappointed

Disappointed because they did not make something new ... they just down-cycled old idea but if it is the introduction of something new that will be great ... so, waiting for Ep. 8


BUT, if in Ep. 8, a character tells another :"I am your father" ... i will join the DARK SIDE 

[Rapine]

LOL@ Seb.

I like Episode 2. I generally like the prequels. Especially compared to Ep. Does-Not-Exist.

Currently Canon says the 501st (Vader's Fist) still exist but are not Clones.  They are the ones who assaulted the Base on Hoth.

Why are they choosing Roque One as their stand alone? A story about supporting soldiers that made the set up of the original premise. Even if we won't know the outcome for these specific characters, we know the big outcome of blowing up the Death Star the first time and even the final outcome of the Emperor. So, there's kind of something weaker to the potential when we just know so much about where we're headed. It's like another prequel, but it's about side characters after ep3 and before ep4. Episode 3b. Roque One: A tertiary Star Wars story. Many Bothans will die bringing you this movie. In fact, is this movie about the Bothans that died bringing the Rebels the Death Star information?

The rumor is that within the film you will be exposed to info pertinent to Ep. 8 and on.  I have no real urge to see it or the Han film though (even though I will).  I fell the Anthology films would have been better focusing on The Old Republic Era but that's me.  Bothans brought the SECOND Death Star's info to the Rebellion.

Battlefront... Death Star expansion coming soon!

No the Bothans died bringing info on the 2nd DS.

Bothans brought the SECOND Death Star's info to the Rebellion.

See?
