But It Was So Artistically Done: THE STAR WARS THREAD

[The Huskar Social Union]

I'm finding a bunch of articles and pictures, stating that the Han Solo spin off is called "Solo A Star Wars Story"

That its name, Star wars on FB put up a like to their site there now

aw man.
that's like, the worst possible name for that.

but then again, a Han Solo story is the worst possible anthology movie to make, so at least they fit?

[Alekseandrea]

I see on its 4th season Rebels is still inconsistent on whether or not it's okay to show people(even fully armored Stormtroopers and Mandalorians) get shot, or struck by Light sabers instead the Stormtroopers forget their blasters shoot, and wait to get kicked or punched.

-They brought back Satines sister from the Clone Wars, Neat.
-Yes Governor torture your Captain that will definitely keep him loyal to you.
-You moron. Never force an enemy to improve your stuff! They'll just turn it against you.

It's ok to blow up a star destroyer filled with imperials, but cooking them in their own armour that's going too far.

Shouldn't actions with basically the same consequences be morally equivalent?
The imperials will die painfully in both cases. Why not do it the easier way?

The point of that scene wasn't "superweapons bad, normal weapons good", it was "I built this but it's being used to kill my people. that asshole is also my people so he shouldn't die by this"
at least, that's what I got from it.

Yeah, I have low expectations for this movie (for a Star Wars movie, anyways). I expect it will still be good, but not as good as the other anthology movies, especially not Rogue One or the proposed Obi-wan movie.

It's about kid friendliness.

Ever notice that a lot of villains in kid's movies die off screen? They'll fall to their deaths or they'll be crushed or they'll be on something that blows up? It's all about having their deaths not be graphic. It's not that the hero is morally absolved of killing them. It's that it has to be kid friendly.

Tbf, Rogue One was also called "A Star Wars Story". I think that's the epithet that they're using for non-numbered titles.

I think it's the "Solo" part people are upset about. It does feel a bit naff.

Yes but Rogue One sounds cool on it's own. "Solo" on its own just doesn't sound like a cool movie name.

Yeah, even "The Adventures of Han Solo: A Star Wars Story" sounds cooler. It sounds a little cheesy, but I like it more than just "Solo: A Star Wars Story."

[Salus Maior]

"Solo" on its own...

lol

[Zanera]

It's probably a rad title if you think Han is the coolest dude ever (in Star Wars).

[Ism]

I don't know, it just doesn't have a good sound to it.

"A Solo Star Wars Story"

[Ism]

I don't know, it just doesn't have a good sound to it.

"A Solo Star Wars Story"

Much better.

But, to be frank, I think "The Scoundrel: A Star Wars Story" sounds better.

That would make it even worse. If only the "pure" mandalorians are allowed to die fast...

Look at all the things they do to stormtroopers.
It isn't kid-friendly. At all.

I believe there are double standards in play here.
People shouldn't be treated differently if some of them don't have a name or wear a helmet all the time.

They did it to prevent a plot hole of epic proportions.
If they had kept the weapon they would only need to turn it on to win most fights with the empire.
It's like a "I win"-button.
It would make the rest of star wars stupid and would remove most of the dramatic tension.

So Sabine sacrifices her brethren in the future so star wars doesn't become boring.


It seems like a lazy way to write this, but making the superweapon impractical, of limited use or destroyed are not that great either.
I believe they should have avoided the whole "I win"-button stuff.

Couldn't they have chosen acid gas or something as Sabine's superweapon. Something else that hurts civilians and all other combatants in range? It would have made WAY more sense for the rebels to destroy something like that.

I mean, look at what they did to these poor men...

Stormtroopers/Clonetroopers/Genosians/Jedi are often brutally killed, but this usually never happens to the Sith.

[Alekseandrea]

Stormtroopers/Clonetroopers/Genosians/Jedi are often brutally killed, but this usually never happens to the Sith.

Well, statistically speaking there is a 50% chance that a sith will die by bisection by lightsaber and a chance of 50% of their dead involving a really, really deep pit. The remaining 25% died because of lightning strikes. (only the movies were used for these statistics.)

So their deaths are perhaps not the most, but still brutal.

Stuck-Up, Half-Witted, Scruffy-Looking Nerfherder: A Star Wars Story

Apparently Solo.

[Pax Nerdvana]

Apparently Solo.

That sounds like a decent title. I want to see a Boba Fett movie.

[Ascoobis]

So it's between:

Wookie-Princess Matchmaker(he can arrange that): A Star Wars Story

Debtor to a Slug Crim Boss: A Star Wars Story

Or

Shot First: A Star Wars Story

[Ascoobis]

Apparently Solo.
