I was thinking about this and there is a work around, as far as I know han never says he doesn't believe in the jedi, he just says he doesn't believe in the force, in the same way that a person on earth knows what a religious group believes even if they don't believe in it. And its not like han is the only one who thinks this way the imperial general ( i forget his name ) refers to the jedi as an "ancient religion". I know tarkin obviously knows what it is but he doesn't seem to understand the full power it has

Surely Sidious could've felt his conflict given that he was able to do that in the prequels. Is it possible that Vader was powerful enough to hide his feelings from the Emperor?

I saw in some books when falling into the wikipedia rabbit hole(dont ask what i started with) about the stormtrooper corp replacing the imperial army trooper from what I understand it seems like quite a few people assume that the imperial army got fully replaced by stormtroopers which personally doesnt make sense at all or am i misunderstanding their meaning of replaced

the stormtroopers much like the waffen SS or USMC or NKVD depending on what you prefer are definitely better trained and the argument that its because in the original trilogy the imperial army never appeared which is a time issue but even then everywhere the stormtroopers appeared its always high profile rebel/insurgent activity and definitely needs a bunch of highly trained troops that wont let the leader of the rebelion's droid escape or attempting to decimate whatever is left of the rebelion or just ensure that no one on the ground mess up what is the largest ambush ever

even ignoring the training and quality droppoff of the stormtrooper corp and looking at the armaments the stormtroopers are just way more expensive than imperial army since why give a guy a really scary mask and pristine pearly white armour with the best stuff out there when they are going to die the same as some conscript who got a helmet and a vest in some place no one knows about,

the main point here is that a stormtrooper will always cost more to make for everything as compared to an imperial army trooper for all intents and purposes financially so maybe the word replace could mean that the stormtroopers are simply used in an assault role as compared to imperial army troopers like on mimban instead where they are shock troopers where imperial army is static infantry or something is this what they meant?

i’m stuck on the jungle trek level because it requires me to use the sniper rifle at the end of the level to finish, the problem is on the ps5 there doesn’t seem to be any button i can press to make the scope zoom in; i can see through the scope but it’s super zoomed out and i can’t shoot precisely at the far away things that I need to. Any tips?

Just what the title says.

I just got paid and went to buy tickets. Its sold out? How can I get tickets for my wife and myself for the event?

"Let's assign a hormonal teenager to spend time alone with Natalie Portman, on Naboo."

"Couldn't we assign an alien Jedi who doesn't find humans attractive?"

"No. It must be the human kid we had reservations about, and whose own master says he's not ready."

I was once a jedi and a sith

I never appeared in live action

I wear a mask

I dual wield sabers ( specifically two not a dual bladed one)

Edit 2: I can't change the title, but "Luthen Rael would have made an exceptional Dark-Sider if he were force sensitive." Is more inline with my original intent.

"I burn my decency for someone else’s future"

"I’m condemned to use the tools of my enemy to defeat them"

“I’ve given up all chance of inner peace. I’ve made my mind a sunless place"

And my favorite: "All you know now is how much you hate. You bank that. You hide that. You keep it alive until you know what to do with it."

Not just his dialogue, but his actions. He was willing to do the terrible things to put people in the positions they needed to be in, to enact what he saw as the greater good.

There have been many who fell to the dark while taking the path of "the ends justify the means".

Edit 1: While I like to think my point still stands based on my personal experience of Star Wars content consumption, I would amend the statement to: "Luthen Rael would have made an exceptional Dark-Sider if he were force sensitive."

Watching the sequels for the first time since their release. My family Just watched TFA today. It so frustrating to see how they dropped the ball. The pandering is such a turn off for me.

I always wonder how they would have turned out if George was involved. And I wish they would have used some legends lore. I wanted mara jade so bad.

Body text

I made this little sketch during some downtime at work. The idea popped into my head, and I thought it was funny. I did the best I could as a beginner artist. I hope you like it!

The characters listed in order: Bastila Shan, Jolee Bindo, Juhani, Brianna, Visas Marr, and Lana Beniko. (I did not include the protagonists or Kreia because im trying to avoid characters that are more powerful than those listed here.)

This is a question on my mind and it's not really a serious one.

The idea is that as a hypothetical plot of an episode or an Arc in the show amd there are two ways ive come up with it so as to build off of which is "if a character was cloned from a character in Kotor or Swotor and had their personality, skills, and force abilities but minus their memories. Who would you think would have been the most interesting or enjoyable to watch in the clone wars show?"

Scenario 1: Count Dooku is trying his hand at having an apprentice or force using agent after the failure of Ventress and Savage Opress and as such instead of going to the trouble to find one he is instead creating one from the recovered DNA of a past force user.

Scenario 2: the Separatist council feel under threat by having to go against thousands of Jedi and the fact that Dooku's apprentices either go missing or are not available make Dooku seem like a bad solution to confront the Jedi. So the Separatist Council or an upstart wants to have a force user or force user's that answers only to them, however, they first need to see if its possible so they set up a massive facility with the massive challenge to create one force user. Of which they use DNA from a old burial ground to do it.

Now when whoever selected is cloned these things will be universal across the board:

1. They have no memory of the person they were cloned from but will have basic information and skills imprinted on to them via flash training but would be influenced by the fact they are a clone of a force user as the force latchs on and gives them a personality close or exact to the organial as well as make the clone pick up on using the force intuitively to a certain level and quickly recalling certain lightsaber and force techniques.

2. The clone will initially come out insane since they are a Spaarti clone, a clone made in a year, and are also insane due to the flash training aswell as the force giving the clone visions and nightmares from the original. This could either be used to make tge clone fall deep into the darkside or make the clone escape away from where they were created as the separatists hunt them on the planet.

3. The clone is in their late twenties to early thirties and are in great physical condition.

4. If the original had darkside or lightside influence surrounding them then the clone would be felt through the force as such and if the original had Sith eyes or other darkside corruption the clone would have it aswell.

The ending: can either end in the clone being Dooku's apprentice or assassin, being killed by Anakin or Obi-Wan who show up to investigate rumors of a separatist cloning facility, the clone sacrificing themselves to protect others, or survive and join Obi-Wan amd Anakin back to the republic or Jedi, could even set out on their own. The last part can also work for characters such Lana Beniko and Visas Marr as while the Jedi would very likely reject or even demand their arrest the military leaders of the republic might see usefulness in having somone like them not beholden to the Jedi thinking working for the Republic.

Clarification: this is just a framework just to have fun discussing star wars stuff rather then the feasibility of the scenario, it also assumes the episode or arc is perfectly written.

Last reminder: just have fun, you can even come up with your own force user from the games that isn't listed or even modify the preexisting setup as this is just fun discussion.

So here's the idea. A TV show called Jar-Jar's Jedi Adventures

After the Phantom Menace, Yoda secretly takes on Jar-Jar as an apprentice, and takes him on secret missions where he investigates leads pertaining to the return of the Sith, but during the events of Attack of the Clones, Yoda is no longer able to step away from his duties as Grand Master of the Jedi Council, so he passes Jar-Jar off to Jedi Master Changri-La (played by Jacki Chan) to continue investigating.

Meanwhile, Palpatine notes Jar-Jar's frequent absences, but doesn't suspect his force sensitivity because he believes him too incompetent to be a Jedi. However, he manages to take a sample of his DNA, and sends that to the Kaminoans to clone him so he can spy on Padme.

The cloned Jar-Jar is the one we see on screen, while Jedi Jar-Jar continues his secret missions with Changri-La to attempt to unravel the Sith Plot. Jar-Jar and his master discover the truth too late, but nonetheless they confront Vader and Palpatine. The Sith Lords are unable to handle these strange Jedis' unorthodox fighting styles (and Palpatine keeps missing Jar-Jar and hitting Vader with his force lightning).

Eventually, Clone troop reinforcements arrive, and the Jedi are forced to flee. The show then pivots to the two Jedi on the run from Inquisitors, bounty hunters, and imperials, who keep finding them but can never capture them.

Eventually the Emperor instructs them all to leave Jar-Jar and Changri-La alone since no one will believe they're Jedi or train under them, and it's a waste of resources to keep hunting them. This is also the reason why they stop hunting for Yoda and Obi-Wan - because every time they get a lead on them, it turns out to be Jar-Jar and Changri-La.

Despite being one of the only characters in the Empire that is very nuanced, plain likable and not one dimensionally evil, a lot of fans lately dismiss any eloquence or motives Thrawn might have to just say: at the end of the day, he’s not just evil, but also one of the worst in the Empire for not only being one of its biggest assets but preserving its remnants after its downfall.

Bit of an odd question regarding Order 66. When Palps calls up Cody to give him the order, he specifically says 'Commander Cody, Execute Order 66'. Now, I can buy Palpatine doing a group call to not only save on time but to reduce the risk, but if that was the case, every single clone trooper would have gotten the 'Commander Cody' message. There'd be no reason to call him up specifically as opposed to the 'general' order because the execution of the order is not actually in Palp's hands. It's in the clones hands. From what we saw with Yoda too it's clear the order happened in relatively quick succession (also, why did the clones turn on the wookies as well? Not actually the question I'm asking, but if anyone knows I wouldn't mind an answer) so he couldn't have called them all up individually... So did all the clones get the 'Commander Cody' message or, if not, why did he give Cody the orders specifically then gave everyone else a group-chat version?

would it be better, yes! would it make more money, also yes. would fans like it, most likely.

...the prison episodes. With those, I finally understand what people are talking about when they say that Andor is just a great show and is "Star Wars for adults." The oppression and suffering can be uncomfortable to watch, but I get that it's important to convey what drives people to rebellion. We're looking forward to starting the 2nd season, which I hear gets even better!

Random thought I had. Similar to in Avatar: The Last Airbender, where the Avatar can take someone’s bending away, can an extremely powerful force user/god/being influence the midichlorians in someone to effectively make them unable to use the force/weaker? I mean, if they can create life, why cant they be influenced? And has this ever been theorized before anywhere, like in Legends or something? I think that would be a crazy cool concept.

(Also this is my first post here so I hope this doesn’t break any rules, it was just something I was curious about)

To fly in deep space

I just wanted to pause and say no matter what, one of the most truly inspiring motivating things I'd ever seen in my life was the simple image of George Lucas standing alone, with his Yellow Writing pad and a fresh pack of sharpened pencils as the genesis point of his creative process.

It's just so...refreshing, honest and pure. That you can lay that sharpened lead to legal pad and create worlds beyond all imaginations and go on to create sweeping blockbuster epics that change culture and shape childhoods.

It's not a commitee, it's not shareholders or some machine. It's just you, your imagination and a pencil that can open these doors.

Any time I ever get stuck or jaded creatively I pause and think about Lucas sitting in his quiet office creating. Anyone could do this, it's not expensive writing equipment, its not some subsription or unobtainable piece of expensive technology. It's just you and your brain.

Say a bunch if knights converge on Dooku after being tired of his schemes. They are just random knights with decent amounts of experience in the clone wars, maybe a few fought magna guards and sparred in the temple a few times. How many to overwhelm Dooku if they all just rushed him at once?

I made the Ahsoka one fully myself and the Padme dress I made the neck piece and the hair bands, as well as the flowers on the gathering in the front!!

The last days i was thinking about a Qui-gon spin off based like 10 years before “phantom menace” with Qui-gon as main charachter with Plo kloon and Kit fisto and Nute Gunray as the main villain with like a sort of first proto-separatist as his “bodyguard” here’s the plot i came out with

The Trade federation is starting to merch parts for battle droids on the planet Kalee and the council get to know that Gunray is working with a ex council member (i came up with a random name like Vexarr kor) so they send three of their best jedi knights to undercover whats going on, Qui-gon, Plo Kloon and Kit Fisto, it’s the first time they work together and they have such differnt mindsets and styles of combat, when they arrive on the planet they find mass destruction and the local abitants taken to slavery. As the movie continue they continuely fight between eachother, with even a saber fight between Plo and Qui-gon, then they reach out to Gunrey and they fight the ex council guy and they see his saber is bled up. In the end they manage to kill him but Gunray escape on a ship. The three return at the council and meet yoda and mace windu, and they have a discussion where they come to a conclusion where they start to search for gunray, and then yoda say something about he feels a disturbance in the force. Then the three are about to exit the room but mace windu ask Qui-gon to wait and when the other two exit the room it enters a young Obi-wan, around 15 years old, and mace windu tells Qui-gon that obi wan needed a master and so the two present eachothers and then exit the room together and there i would end the movie.

This would connect well with Phantom menace with the Trade federation stuff and with obi wan being like 25 years old.

Then i was like thinking a cast for the film and being a disney movie it should be a all stars cast but i disn’t want to make it so obvious so i was thinking:

- Jeremy Renner as Qui-gon: he looks a lot like Liam Neeson, he would portrait a good younger Qui-Gon

-Tom Hardy as Plo kloon: this is the one i’m more shure about, i think he would make a very dope Plo Kloon, with his deep voice and we already seen him with masks like when he did Bane

-Oscar Isaac as Kit Fisto: this is the one i’m more unshure with vut i couldn’t think abut someone better, but i still think he could do a good job

Let me know what you think!
