It may be that we’re doing certain things on this forum that are detracting women and girls.

Of course we are. We’re talkin’ the extremely nerdy minutia of Star Wars.

See, you’re already expressing biases here. That shouldn’t detract away users. There are plenty of women and girls who like Star Wars.

How many of those people are going to come to a forum, a rather dated website format, when you’d be more likely to be discussing it over at /r/StarWars, or hell, just with other people in person? The amount of anonymity that comes along with making an account here is enough reason to suggest that it doesn’t really matter who you are. You just need to hate the prequels, find ROTJ mediocre, and be repeatedly blown away by Dre’s algorithmic skills.

Guess I should leave then…

I agree.

I mean, I don’t either, I’m just talking about what’s usually commonplace in these discussions.

Plenty of girls post here. Possessed, for example.

Am I a pretty girl?

Uh, you’re…you’re beautiful–

Goddamn, lol

double post

Tried it for quite literally a few seconds and I have to say, I like it already. My only complaints would be the top of the page looks a little cluttered, and there’s a big empty space between the users’ avatar and name.

You might fare better over at:

What is wrong with Attack of the Clones?

Fifteen years should not be enough time for you to have lived long enough to post on this forum.

“I never made a deal with Kanjikulb!”

“Tell that to Kanjiklub.”

“Kanjiklub, I never made a deal with you!”

[subtitled] “Oh. Okay.”

Of course I’m generalizing a lot, but that’s definitely the “rethinking the prequels” generation, i.e. “What can we pretend the prequels succeeded in by using everything but the films themselves as evidence.”

All squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares. Most PT apologists are millennials because they grew up with them (though there are older ones who can’t get past the George’s vision BS) but most millennials still realize the PT is shit (as do most people).

Me and all my friends grew up with the PT. Most of them have a soft spot for it, sure. Not a single one considers it even close to the level of the OT. In fact, I haven’t met a person in real life that prefers the PT since I was on the playground in the sixth grade.

Also, I think many don’t realize that the millennial generation is usually considered to start early to mid eighties and end mid to late nineties. So a lot of us (me included) saw the OT first anyway.

No I understand. Just kind of poorly phrased on my part.

If it’s any consoltaion, while millenials think the prequels are genius and the originals are overrated, the next generation will only be able to tolerate the ST, and the following generation won’t care at all.

This is one of the last scenes of this half of the film I haven’t finalized yet, but here’s something close to final:

Luke Leia Han

Am I looking at Star Wars Legacy right now!?

I’m saying if you’re trying to match the flip-book style animation of the A-ha video, make the frame rate lower so the motion isn’t as smooth.

Try cutting the frame rate in half. I think that should match the original video near perfectly.

• Starts religious debate

• Blames Frink for religious debate and disagreeing in saying that all Christians are war mongers

• Ends religious debate

I genuinely think your story treatments are very well done, I just don’t know where you were coming from with that tangent.

What the fuck?

R2 tries to show the navigation route to Luke and friends on the Death Star, but the computer automatically updates to Windows 10 halfway through the process.

I guess he means he’s more inclined to learn about religions because he doesn’t already believe in one…I guess?

Strange, I was going to make that exact comment.

I can understand having the OUT as one canon and the SE/Blu-Ray versions as another (granted that Hayden reprises his role as Anakin in the ST) but 3 seems like too much.

I justify not including the Special Editions/prequels by assuming that the people working on the new movies have a love for the originals similar my own love, so their head canon probably involves the unaltered originals and not the Special Editions.

Subtitle a sand person talking about how funny it would be to have their language subittiled incorrectly, and then the other sand people get increasingly irritatied by him repeatedly saying that.

Lord Haseo said:

What? lol

What’s confusing about that? It’s three different canons that all the worthwhile movies set up at the time of their respective release.

If Max Landis had just said ‘self-insert character’ instead, we’d never be arguing about that dumb terminology.
