The prequel fandom is less a fandom around these three movies and more a fandom of the internet headcanon these movies spawned.

Well, that’s the sequel fandom, too.

Yeah

Also, “tricks”? That’s a weird label to put on someone else’s opinion and perspective.

Can’t speak for BedeHistory, but I feel like a lot of defenses of the prequels have little to no basis in the movies themselves. It’s like they’re doing Lucas’s work writing for him. The prequel fandom is less a fandom around these three movies and more a fandom of the internet headcanon these movies spawned. Which isn’t a crime or anything, and movies are subjective anyway so it’s no big deal. But it makes for an unconvincing defense and it feels a lot like a hack or a trick.

I’m sure I’ve said something like this to you before in a not-super-friendly way, sorry for that

Rasputin was extremely difficult to kill, he was poisoned, shot, beat up, chained up and thrown into a river. His cause of death was drowning.

Nah, this isn’t because he was difficult to kill, but because his executioners were nerds with no experience. They shot him in the wrong spot, the poison was too low a dosage, etc.

What if Palpatine in TRoS is just a personification of the dark side, and not Palpatine himself? It takes the corporeal form of Palpatine just because of the galaxy’s shared trauma of this one dude.

The movies say it was in a galaxy far, far away though

Finally got banned from a Discord server I’d been on for years. They grew tired of my wrongthink. Why are woke people so mean?

Based off the story you told, it sounds like you were in the right. But I do not believe for one second that you were telling the whole story. Especially based off of your history on this issue, there is no way in hell that you were simply “wrongthinking” and got banned over it.

I’d recommend you kept Teth. It’s a big planet, no reason it would all look like that.

No personal canon. I exist in the badlands where all Star Wars media may or may not have happened. A New Hope and The Freemaker Adventures are on the same level of canonicity.

Not to be that guy, but to make that possible you’d have to cut ESB down to about 6 minutes

Add clouds coming out of Vader’s mask, because his suit is a massive THC vape

I’m sorry man but the fact that he was writing treatments a year before submitting treatments doesn’t change my mind that he was spitballing for the 30 years leading up to that

Can never get over the line of thinking that because Lucas had multiple ideas for the sequels that means he had x number of alternate versions, the creative process aside along with the fact that these are three movies we’re talking about already, this is the guy obsessed with intercutting multiple stories.

We know for a fact that the one he submitted in 2012 wasn’t the microscopic one, or the one with Darth Maul, and an older one which isn’t the one submitted in 2012, the microscopic one, or the one with Darth Maul. It could be that the older one was just spitballing, the one submitted in 2012 was catering to Disney, and that he had one main idea with the microscopic ideas and Darth Maul coming back. But I find it more likely he was spitballing the whole time and never had one, single ST idea.

Not true. Check out this interview with Jett Lucas from 2013. He knew in 2011 that George was writing for the Sequel Trilogy.

There is literally nothing in this video regarding the content of what he had written and submitted to Disney other than that it focused on passing the torch to a new generation of protagonists. What exactly is your point?

Wait until you see what’s coming. It’s going to blow your mind. That’s all I can say. I can talk it up all I want, because I know it over-delivers. It way over-delivers. People are going to be so pumped when they see it.

This may be true, but surely this is also how he talks about every project?

No way the show can live up to that bar alone, him having said that gives me less confidence in BoBF

Some of them may be more implied or more Neverar’s interpretations, but half of them are outright said in the OT. Obi-Wan being a reckless crusading idealist, Anakin speaking hopefully of his child becoming a Jedi, Anakin being the best star pilot in the galaxy, I don’t know how to miss that from the OT.

Just seeing another side of a previously-established planet is cool enough on its own to justify it, honestly, even if Cantonica isn’t a very interesting planet.

I can barely tell the difference between 1080p and 4k. Part of that’s just me, but increasing resolution seems to have diminishing returns for home media. I don’t think 8k will be a thing, at least not for a very long time. I genuinely predict we will see a re-release of the unaltered OT before we see the SE OT on 8k.

Looks interesting but I’m not going to struggle through reading this guy’s le quirky writing style

Anakin Starkiller said:

Kylo Ren and Snoke act exactly like Sith, though.

I’d argue they’re Sith of a non-Baneite lineage, but I’m sure Canon will contradict me on that.

Well thanks to TRoS, I guess you can say they’re Sith of a Banite lineage, if Palpatine trained Snoke.

I used to think that Rick McCallum was Ric Olie’s actor.

To all y’all complaining about Dave Chappelle, keep in mind that humour usually involves making fun of people and it doesn’t make people anti-whatever-they’re-making-fun-of:

https://www.quora.com/What-s-the-deal-with-Dave-Chappelle-and-Netflix-recently

To all y’all complaining about complaining about Dave Chappelle, this is a blatant marketing stunt. Netflix is not exactly a socially conservative company, they wouldn’t have put this on their platform if that wasn’t the point. Fabricating a controversy = Very opinionated people watch a mediocre comedy routine they otherwise wouldn’t.
