It’s pretty good. I liked what you did with them. That must have taken a lot of focus. How many hours was that in total?

I mean it’s the Star Wars thread where we discuss Star Wars. I would say detailing the changes you would have made and what you wished a part of Star Wars fits into that. And since LV put it into the spoilers you can pretty easily ignore it.
I do be tired

Much of it runs towards the combo between my not having many problems with the ST, so not seeing your fixes as needed + the general writing doesn’t appeal to me (ie, it’s entirely description without dialogue and such). Also, too much Phasma, not enough Rey :p

Look, if you actually like the Sequels as they are then there's just no hope for you. Sorry. :p

I loved it! I like the choice theme that played throughout Finn's narrative and that every character had their own story that taught its own lesson. I could criticize the fact that we only saw the villains when in conflict with the protagonists (only a matter of perspective really, so eh) and Rey's general absence, but I'm no film critic! Besides, all I care about is that you had fun doing it. Creative projects are awesome.

Apparently they're more akin to snakes in that they're mostly coiled muscles as opposed to a more slug-like creature which they resemble.

Tbh I didn't really know what to do with Rey and I guess it shows. There was too much focus on her in the ST that I needed to shift some of that focus to other people who didn't get enough spotlight. Frankly, Finn should've been the lead IMO which is why I tried to generally center the focus around him. But finding the right balance for Rey was difficult as several important characters were outright neglected in the Sequels just to give Rey more time to be spectacularly perfect and super important, which was just ridiculous.

Your critique that the villain's rarely appeared outside conflict/interaction with the protags is actually a good one. I'll try and take that into consideration for the future; I do like it when we get to see what the bad guys are up to.

See, I prefer my childhood musings of assuming they actually can’t move under their own power, which is clrly a much more reasonable take

I mean, I assume not all Hutts are lazy bastards like Jabba. They wouldn't be much of a crime empire if they were all too fat to move.

I was watching ”Rising Malevolence”. CW Season 1, Episode 2 and a Droid was humming the Imperial March. The droid predicted the future. I just thought this was hilarious and you guys might want to know, even though I’m sure most of you have watched all of TCW before.

Jabba was only too fat to move in rotj because of the limitations if the practical effects. In every other appearance he moves around just fine.
