Star Wars: This is The Way

[The Huskar Social Union]

Idk if we can talk about other Star Wars content here but I just finished playing Jedi: Fallen Order and I really liked it. Thinking of getting the Free Kashyyyk symbol (the one with the shyyyo bird) tattooed on me. Can't wait for Jedi: Survivor to come out next year.

Course its fine to talk about it here, its a Star Wars game afterall

I originally had no interest in Fallen Order, none of the trailers really did anything for me but i decided on a whim to buy it when it came out and had a ton of fun with it. Glad i bought it, it was a pretty solid game.

I watched parts of the play through on YouTube and enjoyed it. It’s still up in the air for me to get.

Would you rather watch someone swing a lightsaber around or do it yourself? Cmon now!

[Pasong Tirad]

Finished the entire game in ~30 hours. If you've got the funds, now would be the best time to buy it as it's on sale on Steam

I don't think I've seen such a genuine expression of entertainment from a dark sider user as much as when Vader was "fighting" the Third Sister. She was so far beneath him it wasn't even funny. He was having fun with his toy.

It's so ridiculous to see this after Vader literally stopped a freighter mid-flight and tear it apart, like, that's some Starkiller kind of power right there. Has there even been such a powerful display of the Force like that in live action before? I was genuinely shocked and impressed to see that, I feel like the power of the Force is so muted in the movies and shows compared to what we get in games.

So yeah, the Third SIster definitely sucked ass. But I don't blame the actress much at all, she actually did a fine job in the final 2 episodes. The problem is that the story designers gave her so much screentime without giving us any reason to care about her. She literally became instantaneously better when her motivations and justifications became clear in episode 5. Throwing characters at the screen is why the sequels failed and why Disney will continue to criticized until they learn how to develop characters properly.

Replace her with the Grand Inquisitor and remove the redemption and we would have been better off

I just had to make sure it was worth it. See what the gameplay was like.

I guessed almost every plot point of Obi-Wan Kenobi solely by looking at the races and genders of people involved. It is becoming easier and easier to do this. Worry about diversity after the scripts written.

[HC Eredivisie]

Curiosity question.

For those who liked Obi-Wan; what was your introduction to Star Wars?

Either this thread or Rebels, I've seen the OT on TV back in the days but I was more into ST at that time.

Well, if you watched RotS, you’ll see that Kenobi and Organa were very close

Also, Leia only knows Obi-Wan as Ben (which is why she reacts so much when she hears his name in the OT). A little bit of a stretch, sure, but helps to fill in that plothole

I don't think the message needs any explaining at all. Remember that she's not just taking the plans back Md asking Ben for help, she's also trying to recruit Obi-Wan into the fight on behalf of Bail. It makes sense that she would call him General instead of Ben. "Ben you helped me that one time", isn't quite the call for enlistment as "General, the fight continues, we need you to take up arms again"

And she probably talked with her dad about Ben afterwards, who he was and how he knew Bail and was told about him and the Clone Wars. That would be more persuasive to Kenobi than the few days he spend rescuing Leia.

The main antagonist is already black and disabled.

Or just don't worry about it at all. If the story makes it happen great, of not great. If the movie is about storming the beaches of Normandy it doesn't need a Gay Black woman lead. If it's a movie about feudal England it doesn't make sense for a woman of middle eastern decent being the lead.
It's like the Original vs Netflix Adaptation meme. If the original is about some guy in the 1870s on a farm in Idaho they would replace the 20 something white guy with a crippled gay Native American Man, and replace the Redheaded Irish Wife with a bisexual African American woman.
At this point it's so predictable it's not even funny. I'm honestly genuinely surprised and happy when a good movie comes out.

Actually you can also blame the actress. She felt she didn’t have to research or prepare for the role of an established character.

The banshee scream really killed scenes….anyway…..

If it's a movie about feudal England it doesn't make sense for a woman of middle eastern decent being the lead.

It turns out you believe that because of the whitewashing of history by movies depicting the time when in reality they were diverse. Casting all white actors has been the less realistic portrayal.

"The thing to remember with the original Londoners is that they were not born here. Every first-generation Londoner was from somewhere else - whether it was somewhere else in Britain, somewhere else on the continent, somewhere else in the Mediterranean, somewhere else from Africa," she said.

Further reading

But the truth is, these Middle Ages are not the Middle Ages. The whites-only Middle Ages is vastly different from the medieval world that many scholars would recognize. And according to a study I conducted in 2008-2009, young people in the US and UK think of the Middle Ages as existing only in England, Britain, or Western Europe. Some even instinctively have trouble seeing medieval Muslims as “civilized,” even in the face of contradictory evidence such as the many advances in science and technology in the medieval Muslim world. But scholars know that the medieval world was not limited only to England or Western Europe. And even if it were limited to only Western Europe, it would still feature the stories of a number of people of color.

Interesting. Other than that my other points still stand.

Once again, The Forrest criticizes Reva.

Completely agree.
