While I didn’t catch it on first viewing, after hearing about it so much, Reylo subtext in TLJ was very obvious on rewatch.
What’s the relevance?
Hot take, the memes aren’t funny.
Some of them are pretty good, but I don’t understand the obsession with Obi-Wan and in particular “Hello there”, not to mention that one’s done to death.
What moments in Star Wars did you totally see coming?
The biggest one for me was Rey nobody, but I also had the idea of her taking on the Skywalker anyway adoptively. As much as I wanted Palpatine in the ST, I never thought they’d actually do it.
Something that’s always bugged me is how totally trivial Hufflepuff is. Across all 8 films the only person from that house is Cedric. Here’s my proposal: make Luna a Hufflepuff. Yes, I know, diehard fans will call blasphemy, but I don’t care. The more that I think about it, the more I think it fits her better than Ravenclaw. Her defining trait is being cooky weirdo, while Ravenclaw is more for the straightforward academic types. Basically, all this change would entail is recoloring her uniform with EbSynth. Admittedly it might get a little tedious, but it’s mainly just the tie, which is a tiny part, and she often wears muggle clothes instead.
It’s pretty obvious from the misaligned table that you moved Tarkin.
What you did to the lightsaber and Tatooine’s sky:
The Galen Erso wanted hologram is too fanservicey, though.
You know that wouldn’t even be offensive, just pointless.
Just a heads up darkshadowspike, you can make quotes by using > before the text.
And I have no idea why you’re claiming that “most fans” rejected the rise of the Empire. Even the minority of people that still hate the prequels will admit that Revenge of the Sith has good moments of storytelling.
Trust me, there are still plenty of Prequel haters.
If Rey knows her parents were drunkards who sold her she should hate and not care that Palpatine killed them. The only way she can want to avenge them is if they died nobly, which is the thing we wanna avoid.
This interesting in that while there is already a Starnger Things TV to movie edit series, that one takes the opposite approach of cutting things until it fits in a movie runtime, while you opted to just make more movies. Are you only doing Season 1?
Random idea I don’t plan on using: Palpatine lies to Rey and Kylo about being Rey’s grandfather to manipulate her desperate desire for family. It’s revealed in the final confrontation that he made it all up.

These two lines make the Neimoidians look like idiots, and anything to make these guys smarter is a good thing.
As for the actual confrontation with the droids, I decided to rip off the l8wrtr edit here, take out all of the droid’s indecision, and go straight to the droid saying, “You’re under arrest.” Straightforward, and to the point.
Aww, why do you have to take the fun out of everything? I like my goofy villains.
At the end of it all, after this whole nine part epic, after Rey buries the lightsabers on Tatooine where it all began she turns to look directly at the camera and says “Don’t forget to like and subscribe.” Roll credits, presumably with endcards.
Welcome to the forums!
I just wanna say I feel skipping Jakku is losing the best part of the trilogy.
Do you really think the Battle of Crait is a satisfying conclusion without a sequel?
Hey guys
I really didn’t want to get off topic again, but just out of interest because we were talking about it…
The ‘breasts’ article is actually very controversial, and there are very good points made in this article about why it’s a symptom of wider sexism in the Star Wars fandom. Other non-relevant articles have been removed, but this one has stayed, and let’s be honest it’s not because of some desperate need for biological fact pages on wookieepedia.https://clubjade.net/why-the-wookieepedia-article-on-breasts-is-a-big-deal/
Women get driven out of fandom all the time because online sites and forums start feeling like all-male spaces, and it’s usually down to immature fanboys not being considerate.
If you’re as much of a time-waster as I am, here’s a near 20-minute video by Eckhartsladder on the history of the topic.
https://youtu.be/KWuPOKWrjAkI hereby pledge not to talk about breasts on this thread ever again. I’m an editor on wookieepedia now, but it’s fair to say I’m leaving that article well alone just in case I accidentally stir up another internet controversy.
This really isn’t worth throwing a tantrum over. Yeah, it’s dumb article that doesn’t need to exist, but I’d hardly call it offensive.
Legends Sith Lords also make the most of the “cool evil name” trend: Sadow, Darth Ruin, Tenebrous, Nihilus, Phobos, Vengean, Desolous, etc.
You forgot the best one: Darth Millenial.
Couldn’t you just surgically remove the Snoke scenes?
One scene explains where Snoke was during the OT, where he got his power/money, why he dresses in an ostentatious glittering robe (he’s a wealthy crimelord, not a sith lord), where he got obsessed with the Solo family, and thematically wraps up his role in the cycle of revenge.
This isn’t the MCU. You shouldn’t have to watch spinoff material to understand everything.
That said, that idea does sound kinda nice.
They also could’ve done a backstory for Snoke in TLJ in the “second lesson” scene: make minor tweaks to some of Luke’s dialogue, suggest that Luke had met Snoke and they re-formed the Jedi Order, Snoke saw the power within Ben and so he corrupted him and betrayed Luke.
That one too.
Really, Snoke’s backstory isn’t that important. It’d be nice to have, though.
Well Sith names are meant to sound evil in-universe.
I still think Palpatine being the ultimate evil of the ST was the way to go.
The same thing happened when he named a character after Conan O’Brien.
You mean An Average Death Star Day?
