Star Wars discussion

[The Shadow of Korriban]

Then why (months ago) did you insist that Force lightning was a "Sith only skill"?

[Verdauga]

1. One can argue about a subject whilst having little interest in it and very little knowledge of it.
2.The most popular media of Star Wars (the original six) do not, as best as I remember, contain any examples of Jedi using force lightning.
3. I'd have to imagine that precious few examples of this exist in the extended universe.
4.Proof of 1.

*Facepalms*  Verdauga, I did not mean the Jedi had Force lightning. (Though (I'm speaking of Legends) (because I am starting to despise Disney) Plo Koon, (A Jedi) used a lighter version of Force lightning called "Electric Judgement".)  I meant the Sith were not the only dark side users who harnessed it.

In legends Luke also used a form of force lightening, if I'm not mistaken.

Yeah, but the EU has been pretty much thrown in the trash now, though, so....

[Jetthebinturong]

Yeah but Disney canon is worse so who cares?

[The Shadow of Korriban]

I kinda agree with you.

Legends isn't official canon, so....
I am not a huge fan of Disney, but it is tolerable. Plus they have also brought life to the franchise that was pretty inactive otherwise. While things like Last Jedi were horrible, the Force Awakens, Madelorian, ect were pretty good. Plus they are now giving us a new season of Clone Wars and an Obi show.

Clone Wars doesn't count as Disney canon. It was started before they bought Lucasfilm, and all of what is going to be released was planned before then anyway.

Also Force Awakens wasn't terrible in isolation, but with the context of the rest of the series, it is retroactively bad.

[The Shadow of Korriban]

Wasn't The Force Awakens just a remake of A New Hope?

Er, the 2008 Clone Wars movie and TV show is definitely canon. Unless you mean the 2003 series.

[Jetthebinturong]

It wasn't made by Disney is my point. They don't have any actual claim to it.

Commander Fox is one of the coolest clones in the Republic.
