I'm in a Star Wars movie marathon starting with Star Wars;Threads of Destiny a fan film.

So far the acting is eh (Lord Siege I presume is suppose to be like Darth Vader) but it looks good and the music is great for a fan film so far.

To be fair, it's quite possible the credit is more stable and reliable than the dollar.

However, the prices of items in-universe seem to match what similar objects would fetch for IRL for the most part.

Then again... Does a crappy blaster pistol (32 creds) compare to a Glock (~$330 on average)?

That lightsaber sucks. It doesn't make any sense.

And what's with the pointless change-for-the-sake-of-change upgrades to the X-Wing, stormtroopers, and Falcon? I understand that time has passed, but does everything have to look just a little but different?

Haven't the Stormtroopers have numerous redesigns?

Also, I don't know what you mean by the X-Wings and Falcon, they look the same to me.

I think on the x wing the upper section of the wings is a bit further back but other than that it does not look any different to me. And i like the new storm trooper designs, especially the helmet. And as for the sword it could be a makeshift one cobbled together or an older relic of some sorts for all we know.

The only issue i had was the stupid looking ball droid.

The problem isn't that a character is black, it's that a Stormtrooper is black.

Pretty sure they're all still supposed to be clones.
