Random Star Wars Thoughts

[Saso Is-kor]

It was not bad at all, i'm not a fan of opera but i liked it

I can totally see why you thought opera, I confess it popped into my mind as well when I first watched that video. It certainly has a little sprinkle of operatic flavoring to it. Then of course it made me think how interesting an actual opera about Star Wars would be.

No worries my friend...me to.

This Picture.....Chills.

Wonderful, Tepes!  Where did you find that awesome pic?

Hmmm  I don't think I ever though of Mulan's songs as Opera...but I can see it.

I was gonna say. I read the title and new it was a take on I'll Make a Man Out of You from Mulan.

THIS makes me wonder: What would be the strength of a Sith pairing, if the dominant emotion was love (romantic or familial) instead of hate and resentment?


Also, for those that don't know, other than Luke's face, this image is from the DS ending of TFU2. But it's still a cool interpretation.

ANd Luke's face is from Battlefront II.  Which gave us the Jedi Luke we always wanted.

Thank you both, Logos & Tepes 

Yeah, RJ's character assassination of Luke in TLJ was/is the low point in the Sequel Trilogy for me.

Counterpoint: The low point of of the ST was when someone said "Let's dump the original canon and start over." Everything kinda went pear-shaped after that.

In a world that never was, we can only imagine how the EU would have been revitalized if the ST had taken a familiar route. To say the least, Timothy Zahn might have almost reached something close to "household name" status.

Don't get me wrong, they pretty much nailed Thrawn, and I know the reasons why. What bugs me is that Thrawn was a character worthy of the big screen, and they wasted him on a kids' show.

I wouldn't say wasted...since because of that we have gotten more Thrawn than we had before.  We have 3 Thrawn Novels about his rise in the Empire and his relationship with Vader as well as info on the Chiss.  Now we are going to get another trilogy of novels about Thrawn before he came to the empire...so more Chiss lore from the man who created them.

Unless they can write a VERY convincing plot about how he survived getting dragged into hyperspace, to some point in the unwritten future........WASTED.

That is why they ended it the way they did...they aren't done with Thrawn, Ezra, Sabine or Ahsoka

You're sure of this?

But it may all be a moot point as the rumor mill is beginning to churn facts. KK is officially leaving and going to work Bad Robot. <fake sad> And now there is more talk about the possibility of another retcon.  I will admit, this too has me a little worried, considering the other rumor that Mr. Lucas might be back at the helm. I'm never one to say that something can't get worse. BUT I will also admit, whether or not we get the OC back (properly pruned for consistency) having one person's clear vision for the story will still be better than of pseudo-nerds trying to leave their mark.

Who knows? 2020 may just have a happy ending yet.

Said by Filoni himself.  He did not want definite endings for those characters because he felt they could (or do) have more to do.


I've heard the same rumors.  A single vision, even flawed, will always be better than a cluster f**k.  What I have always said about the Prequels, the may have been inferior to the OT but they were still a single persons vison.

For once, I agree. But, c'mon. I can only see one way out for Thrawn, and that's because I've theorized on the effects of hyperspace on the body without the protection of a ship.

Totally agree.
