Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

[draggs]

I would bet there's a more than 25% less than 50% chance that those containers don't have Nightsisters in them, they have Vong the Nightsisters kidnapped. That the greater power Titus Pullo told Hati he sensed are the Vong. To repair the Chimaera and rebuild the Imperial Navy, in return for his getting them back to the SW galaxy, the Nightsisters have promised Thrawn that they can successfully fuse Vong biotech and SW galaxy mechanical tech. And the Vong will follow everyone back sooner or later and be big big mad. I have a bad feeling about this...

Please God kill the Disney Corporation before these creatively bankrupt bastards go ahead with more terrible ideas.

 

[Rome's rightful successor]

Agreed. They haven't really earned Thrawn being this terrible personal threat. You can't rely on everyone being an EU fan.

Then what's the point of him being Thrawn? Did they hyped up Elon Musk Smurf over nothing?

 

[make_it_so]

Because all they know is "Thrawn is big a big threat in the EU, so it should be the same here, and fans will love it!" Even though the two don't even share the same story.

 

[LORD IMPERATOR]

Watch them include a scene where a group of loyalists attempt to seize the Senate building because the writers at Disney are anything but subtle.

Ironically, that would make the New Republic unpopular as fuck. The NR is an unpopular regime if so many civilians are willing to stick their necks out for the Empire and do their work even underneath the NR's nose. One can understand hardcore Imperial soldiers remaining loyal, but if even civilians are willing to risk their lives working for the Empire behind enemy lines, well, it goes to show that the Empire, despite all their evils, was able to inspire the common man and instill within them a sense of patriotism and belonging, as opposed to the New Republic which is a laughingstock to the common man. To the point where the NR has to use robots for prison guards and psychiatrists because not enough people are signing on to work for them.

Please God kill the Disney Corporation before these creatively bankrupt bastards go ahead with more terrible ideas.

Why even care? At this point, there's tons of Legends content to enjoy while Disney goes off and does their thing. Again, there's no use trying to stop Disney when proper Star Wars ended over a decade ago, and what's just coming out is just fanfiction for those who watched the cartoons when they were kids a decade ago.

I mean, a fan of Marvel 616 really wouldn't give a damn what happens in the Marvel Ultimate universe.

Then what's the point of him being Thrawn? Did they hyped up Elon Musk Smurf over nothing?

Rebels fans get wet over him. They loved him in Rebels, they'll love him here.

Again, this series isn't made for normies; it's made for TCW and Rebels fans who love the Filoniverse. It's fanservice for those people who have stayed faithful through the years, watching all the shows and consuming all their stories. And so far, these people love it.

If they're getting wet over Dad Bod Thrawn making a comeback to the galaxy, that's their business, not mine. We already have a trilogy of novels where Thrawn came back, proved himself a badass, and got himself killed by a Chekhov's Gun that was properly set up as a potential weakness for him.

 

[Male Idiot]

Eh Fatty Thrawn kinda makes sense. He is old and was stuck on his ship. So Smurf Elon is just showing his age. But of course, new galaxy, but no imagination to think up a new precursor race like Bith, Duros, or any older race to have made this and put interesting species or even factions in it. Nightsisters it is. Sabine and wolf going on a kid adventure segway was mildly amusing. Shame no kid would have made it through this borefest to actually chuckle at the crab aliens.

I fucking told all of you there would be wolf mounts.

I can imagine that, like Darth Baras, Thrawn pigged out during peacetime while waiting for his minions to rescue him. Maybe Nightsister cooking is like the cooking of your typical Southern grandmas who get you fat and plump after a few days-and Thrawn has been with them for years.

 

[draggs]

Fatty Thrawn is they have the budget to deage Hayden Christensen and have him fight Rosario Dawson in a FromSoft boss battle room, but that means they don't have the budget to slim down Lars Mikkelsen

Like I said, NuThrawn wouldn't be the first Machiavellian SW villain to pig out in peacetime. Darth Baras the Wide already did so more than a decade ago.

Just for comparison, THIS is what he used to look like.

He really did let himself go after the Treaty of Coruscant. He was thin enough to be like Palpatine before the treaty. But years later, he's the Sith answer to Jabba the Hutt.

 

[The handsome tard]

Dude looks like Hermann Göring, Jesus Christ...

He will eat Ahsoka and crew

Disney's stock is in the toilet for unrelated, far more dire reasons than Star Wars. Bob Iger recently came out announcing that the company was going to spend the next ten years funneling 60 billion dollars into the parks...when they're already $47.18 B in debt.

As if there weren't enough reasons to cash your Mouse Stock and run for the hills.

I legit wonder if Bob is just that insane that its not falling apart or he is simply doing what is more profitable for him short term so he can leap from the burning plane in a golden parachute when its clear to everyone that this company is doing down.

I always really liked The Kingpin (back when comics weren’t shit), this big guy you thinks just this fat lazy goon but naw his a hulking monster strong enough to hurt Spidey and smart enough to escape justice almost every time.

It gets to the point where you do wonder if he is not a mutant deep down since some stuff he does is almost super human.

Forget for a second the terrible storytelling and horrible acting of the Ashoka show.

Have you noticed how much homework you need to do for this show to even remotely matter to you?

For starters you need to have read the Thrawn trilogy to have any idea why he is such a big deal. Because his rebels scenes had him as just a generic smug alien bad guy villain of the week.

You need to have had seen the Prequel trilogy, And the whole of the Clone Wars animated series, The Mandalorian ( for Ashoka’s introduction). AND Filoni also just assumes you have watched the entirety of Rebels and that you already love all of the cast.

That is a big Ask. Specially Filoni’s assumption that the Rebels cast is way more beloved and popular than they really are. Do people actually care about them? I personally never cared about Erza and the others that much.. And I doubt your average casual fans even knows who they are.

Is it any wonder why normies couldn’t care less about this show? Even the MCU doesn’t give you that much work before enjoying a movie.

And there you have it, one of the many reasons the MCU is falling apart, veterans are leaving and newcomers dont want to watch 5 fucking phases worth of content to catch up. Its one of the reasons why people dont read comics like Batman or something, because they dont know where to start and it seems a lot of non-sense just to make some sense of the plot, not even considering spin off comics you gotta read because asshole writers like to put essential stuff in them.

It gets to a point where this becomes homework and people hate homework.

 

[Adamska]

I only have passing familiarity with Filoni Wars but they have to have a scene where they explain to Ezra that the emperor is dead and the rebels won the war in the next episode right? There are so many big questions that are left open in this show that I can only imagine people who know nothing about star wars are completely lost.

1. Why are thrawn and ezra stranded on the same planet but Thrawn doesn't know where ezra is? Have they been on this planet the whole time? Are there other Dathomir people on this planet?

2. What keeps Thrawn from leaving the planet? He has a starship. Doesnt he know about the space whales?

3. I get that Thrawn coming back would be a morale boost for the empire and they could all rally around him like napoleon coming back from Elba, but this concept is not explored on the show at all. It would have been nice to get a few scenes with imperial remnant fighting the NR and maybe doing some damage but getting their ass kicked to demonstrate they are still a threat but disorganized.

4. I havent been sold why this had to take place in another galaxy and not just one of the millions of uncharted planets in the unknown regions. I guess its been pretty interesting to go outside of the galaxy though.

See, if you had Thrawn appear in like Episode 3, you could actually have him do more things to show that he is a real and legit villain. But the problem is these writers are mentally incapable of writing anything competently; I legit think they cannot plan a long series anymore and only write about a movie's worth of shit and have to stretch it out to cover for it. This is then compounded by Dave and how he doesn't give a shit because he only sees set pieces for his OCs and he just makes shit up so that things happen when he needs them to.

Throw in producer mandates or Dave deciding his characters need to act like bland cunts, cargo cultist consulting of the AI to tell them when to do the things, and Dave masturbating hard in "refuting the haters" by making his shit fanfic live action and this is what you get.

 

[LORD IMPERATOR]

@Adamska
Again, I highly doubt Thrawn's real act is going to be in this show. It's more than likely that the last act is going to involve Dark Side Titus Pullo doing something crazy and Ahsoka/Sabine/Ezra will have to stop him. Then they get back home on some space whales, and by that time, Thrawn will have reunited the Imperial remnants and the coming war with him will probably be depicted in Dave Filoni's movie. They're going to pull a Halo 2-style cliffhanger to ensure the maximum amount of butts will be seated on the theaters when Filoni's movie comes out.

@The handsome tard
Homework does keep normies from even understanding this show, but the show was made for people who already know the Filoniverse like the backs of their hands. Filoni couldn't give less of a shit if normies are lost when watching his stuff; he's got enough of a following that they're the ones he devoted this show to; the people who were kids ten years ago, who watched Rebels and TCW; now they're old enough to have kids, and they're the ones that the show and the upcoming movie are made for. They're the equivalent of MCU fans within the SW fandom; and just like with the MCU fans, they'll see this through to the end.

Oh no, I believe you. I just refute it's gonna be Pullo who does it; it's gonna be his little pet dark Padawan that does it because she has a slot, not a plug.

I was just saying if you were even merely a bad writer, you'd have brought Thrawn in earlier so you could actually have stakes that attempt to make you care. Disney and LFL can't even reach the bar of teenagers writing fanfiction at this point.

 

[LORD IMPERATOR]

That's rather likely, as well. That, or the Dark Apprentice defects to Tano's side and betrays her master to join the good guys.

 

[Uranus Pink]

4. Sci-fi writers for the most part are retarded and don't realize that galaxies have millions and millions of star systems so they make their galaxies seem really small.

As bad as sci-fi writers are on this, unfortunately usually they're the less retarded writers compared to nonsci-fi writers.

 

[LORD IMPERATOR]

As bad as sci-fi writers are on this, unfortunately usually they're the less retarded writers compared to nonsci-fi writers.

Game of Thrones stands as a testament to that. Seasons 5-8 make the Sequels look positively dignified. What happened to Luke was nowhere near as bad as what they did to poor Stannis Baratheon in terms of character rape.

 

[Overly Serious]

Oh no, I believe you. I just refute it's gonna be Pullo who does it; it's gonna be his little pet dark Padawan that does it because she has a slot, not a plug.

There wont be a redemption for Hati because she's sexy. I'm not being wholly dismissive of other female cast members but Hati is straight-up attractive in a waifish and conventionally hot way. Sabine has genderspecial hair and a roundish face. Hera is mom-ish, Ahsoka is like late Forties and has a very solid build, not slender or as feminine as Hati. Hati is also White. (The actress for Hera is as well but she's in Greenface so it doesn't count).

Hati might be allowed to sacrifice herself for the Good Guys maybe. But no redemption and become good arc for someone like her.

 

[Male Idiot]

Not unless she gets seduced by girl squad while Ezra watches from his mini tmnt cuckshed.

Baras looked a lot like Palpatine, wonder if they made him thicc boy not to confuse fans.

 

[Aloof Pessimism]

Good ol' Darth Baras; from back when Star Wars was decent and its villains were allowed to pose a threat.

I thought his weight gain was supposed to show he no longer needed to go out and get his hands dirty as he had an endless supply of expendable assets to do his dirty work for him.

Back in the day when Vitiate fanboys couldn't shut up about the Sith emperor and how amazingly powerful he is, I liked to remind them of Baras.

This fat Sith lord? Yeah, he outsmarted and trapped your beloved god-emperor on Voss.

Pretty great Sith lord in my book. Now all we get is a zombie Palpatine quoting himself and a former Jedi who's not really evil.

 

[Mississippi Motorboater]

Not unless she gets seduced by girl squad while Ezra watches from his mini tmnt cuckshed.

Speaking of Ezra and cucking, I don't know if anyone remembers this, but when Rebels was airing, everyone on 4Chan was convinced that the 4th Sister or whatever her name was going to seduce Ezra and completely cuck out Sabine in the show.

I don't know where the fuck this started, or why the coomers at /tv/ were so desperate for this to happen, but I saw memes for it all over the place.
