I loathe Plagueis for his name alone. I don’t want to see stupid names like that appear in the ST, not even in passing.
That reminds me of when I tried finding Warbler’s first *sigh* a couple weeks ago.
Suffice it to say, Warb’s post history is too damn long, so I gave up after a few pages in and never found that first *sigh*. But man, was it weird reading his early posts; it felt like I was reading posts from a completely different person.
Knew there was a reason I liked this community so much. They can read. 😉
Well, most of us can.
Of course, he could cheat by using a time machine to skip over the intervening years.
I don’t think this rules out Finn being Force-sensitve or becoming a Jedi; I’d guess he’d probably need to have some aptitude to be able to make any use at all of a lightsaber.
Last time I checked, it doesn’t take Force-sensitivity to swing a blade. People in the real world have been doing it for millennia.
I’ll be watching them in release order, official Blu-Rays. All in a row.
Aren’t there easier ways of satisfying your masochistic urges?
Everything’s better with Alice Cooper.
Just watch Star Wars and ESB then go in and watch TFA imagining that it was the third film and it refers to grand events that were not seen in the cinema and see if that make the new film an interesting “episode 3”.
Then how did Han get unfrozen and meet Finn and Rey?
The carbon freezing unit broke down on a hot day. The rest writes itself.
I hope at least one of them has a sign that reads “EU or FU”.
Death by cocaine.
I was hoping he’d leave this world clean, but I’m sadly not surprised.
I’ve been searching for a personal OT.com catchphrase to use for sometime now, and I’ve finally found the perfect one:
“Can’t we all just get a footlong?”
I’ve used it sparingly before, but I never thought to make it my catchphrase. Well, it is officially mine now.
Can’t we all just get a footlong?

Watch it in this order and your body will be ready for The Force Awakens.
What a delightful image you inspire.
I can’t take most Mando designs seriously though, especially the monkey-head ship you posted.
Damn, now it looks like a monkey head to me, too!
Nor I.
I said really liked it!
Sorry, my mistake.
That’s not detailed!
I’ve been invited to a marathon with some friends I went to college with tonight and tomorrow.
Why are you going to college with them only tonight and tomorrow? 😉
Ben had important information to relate and Mifune’s inability to speak english would likely mean he’d be dubbed.
Or he would have memorized his lines phonetically. *shrug*
I’ve been using a mish-mash of different ships from various sources – the OT, the EU, and even the PT. The feelings I’m trying to invoke depend on the circumstances/locations/parties involved.
Lictor-class dungeon ship
Jehavey’ir-class assault ship (Jehavey’ir-type assault ship in official sources)
Kom’rk-class fighter
In my first episode, the Mandalorian Death Watch served as the villains of the story. A remnant of the once-great and powerful Mandalorian civilization, the Death Watch has nothing but a single stronghold left on a single backwater planet located beyond the outskirts of civilization. As such, I wanted their ships to be old – kind of gritty and rundown – but still quite formidible.
Venator-class star defender (Venator-class star destroyer in official sources)
Victor-class star destroyer (Victory-class star destroyer in official sources)
T-Wing fighter (Z-95 Headhunter in official sources)
First-generation TIE fighter (Basically the body of Vader’s advanced TIE fighter with the hexagonal wing panels of the regular TIE)
In my prequels, the Republic has already transitioned into the Empire. Palpatine hasn’t stepped into power yet, though, so while still heavily militarized – and a fair bit more corrupt than the preceeding Republic – it hasn’t become the wholly evil dictatorship it will be by the OT era. As such, there are a mixture of Imperial-type craft and craft which’ll look more at home within the Rebel Alliance in future decades.
Imperator-class star destroyer (Imperial-class star destroyer in official sources)
First-generation Y-Wing fighter
In my second episode, the main villains are the clones of the Athan Directorate (AKA the Clonemasters). Having broken away from the Empire shortly after the end of the Second Clone War, the Directorate has many of the same ships as the Imperials, including the newer model Imperator-class star destroyers and Y-Wing fighters. Unlike the Imperial ships – which are painted a silver gray – Directorate ships are all painted a stark white.
C60 corvette (I don’t think this ship model has been given a name in official sources)
By my third episode, Anakin’s personal starship will be the Slipstream. His pride and joy, he likes to keep it in as pristine a condition as possible.
Delta-7 Aethersprite-class starfighter
The ship of choice used by the Jedi of the Coruscanti Order when going out on solo missions. Like all Imperial craft, they’re painted a silver gray (unlike in the picture above).
What did I miss during the last three weeks?
Aside from darth_ender’s leave of absence, Possessed and I’s ongoing struggle with depression, and Darth Id’s latest stint at being a stupid, thoughtless bastard, you haven’t missed all that much.
I’m twenty-eight, and I still haven’t learned to drive.
*green with mock envy*
This certainly is disturbing …
I don’t know, therefore aliens.
