Star Wars discussion

[The Skarzs]

The Star Wars franchise is dealing with a lot of drama right now. Craziness.

Mmm...  Random, but a while back I was watching this Disney hack on youtube.  He was the worst. D:

SPEAK TO MOI, PAWNS.

You dare challenge a sith?

[The Shadow of Korriban]

Yes, Jan.  *Dances*

You may continue to speak.

My favorite Star Wars is the first one, other than that I don't care for Star Wars to much. I always like Star Wars, except for the first two prequels. Honestly, I like the Clone Wars tv show more than pretty much all the movies. I have many things I love and hate about Star Wars, but I don't think it's the masterpiece some people say it is. I think it is a fun universe with about Four Great Movies, 2 Good Movies, 2 meh Movies, 2 bad movies, and 1 movie I haven't seen. I think the world building is great, I just think that Lucas made a fun and good first movie, then the second one had less Lucas which is why it was good, then he made a completely fine and fulfilling end to a trilogy, then made two awful terrible movies, then made one actually fun and pretty good movie, and then i think Disney did well at first, but then dropped the ball. That's my opinion.

Dive into the EU, pal!  Star Wars has much more to offer.   Of course, I must agree with you on the unchallengeable fact that Disney went potty on Star Wars.  What gives me the reds though, is when people say that The Last Jedi ruined Star Wars.  Nein!  The fact that they started a sequel trilogy in the first place ruined it.

Star Wars is quite expansive, no real other way to put it.

While I disliked the plots, I can't argue against that the movies themselves were quite impressive. Stories could have used some work, but was indeed immersive nonetheless

I've been feasting my peekers on EU comics and things.  Disney rots.   Also is it just me or has Star Wars comic art significantly been reduced in eye pleasing quality over the years?  Hmmm...  Food for thought.

I've always disliked Extended Universes for pretty much any franchise, even if I occasionally enjoyed some. And while I don't have much against the Star Wars EU, I always laugh at how crazy some of the stuff I've seen is, and personally I just listen to  the main branch of universes.

Except when it comes to Warriors but their entire franchise is an EU.

[Tungro]

Same. Never liked Legends, just took so many things too far.

[The Shadow of Korriban]

But the Holdo maneuver didn't?   Also, what about those planet killing star destroyers in the Rise of Skywalker...

[Tungro]

I'm more referring to things liked cloned Luke and Jedi Hutt's.

Also, what about those planet killing star destroyers in the Rise of Skywalker...

What about EU's 'The Sun Crusher' from the Jedi Academy trilogy?
"a small ship with the ability to destroy entire star systems, thanks to its 11 "energy resonance torpedoes." It has a hyperdrive, indestructible armor, can withstand shots from the Death Star laser and is basically completely unstoppable"

[The Shadow of Korriban]

Defender of the sequel trilogy!  ...Shame...

The Force Awakens was actually a good movie, even if it did start what is regarded by pretty much everyone as a useless and bad trilogy. But it was a well made enjoyable movie. And I still think that the sequel trilogy is more enjoyable to watch than the prequels, even if in some ways the prequel trilogy was better (kind of).

But the Holdo maneuver didn't?   Also, what about those planet killing star destroyers in the Rise of Skywalker...

Holdo maneuver actually kind of made sense, I mean, what was supposed to happen? The planet killing destroyers were dumb (very dumb) but it is more sane than like, half of the stuff that happens in the EU.
