Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

This is fanfic levels of writing
You should've seen her cringy fight scene from the comic I posted a few pages back. She makes a fool out of Han (who she shits on throughout the comic while kissing up to Chewie) and proceeds to go in guns ablazing to take out a whole gang of criminals.

She's also the one who gave Leia her Boushh costume to infiltrate Jabba's palace.

I am not sure what I hate more: The art or the writing

Dear god, did they trace over a screenshot from "Guardians of the Galaxy"?
 
I just realized that it's been ten days since the TROS trailer dropped and we've totally forgotten about it and are shitposting Yoda ASMR to each other.

Top fucking hype, Disney. The guys who hung on for decades literally forgot the new stuff in favor of jokeposting made to be stupid and controversial.

Its almost like Fan Theory videos were free advertising and shouldnt have been attacked
 

You're not too far off. I commented on this two pages ago: https://kiwifarms.net/threads/star-wars-griefing-thread-formerly-about-last-jedi.32492/post-5530346

Basically I don't buy it. Lucasfilm / Bob Iger let him go in May after the abysmal S8 finale.

Its almost like Fan Theory videos were free advertising and shouldnt have been attacked

If they're ever called out for that by the media, they would defend attacking fans/theory videos with, "B-but politics and controversy sell! We were just trying to drum up interest and make the most money possible", as the ex-Deadspin editor Barry Nuthugger did before he got shitcanned for insubordination.

Mr H put out a good video on when, how and why outrage marketing backfires on you:

The TL;DW answer is: it only works, in theory, on new or original products without an existing fanbase. This is, supposedly, part of why Captain Marvel's outrage marketing succeeded: it generated interest where there was none, leaving aside the fact that it was shoehorned in right before Endgame.

Terminator, on the other hand, already had an existing audience that was not impressed by the film. Calling them misogynists drives them away, same with Star Wars and DooM (see the recent Doom: Annihilation movie and the backlash it got for pissing off fans).
 
By the way, I unironically want a comic of this. Just not from Marvel's Tumblrites.

Anyway, nothing was ever given on Yoda's species, but Yoda was given a backstory of sorts by a fan who won a "Design an Alien" contest in 1994 which got George's approval only because the creator was respectful enough to honor George's most autistic rule by not mentioning Yoda's species or homeworld. In it, Yoda's family and homeworld are unknown but around 900 or less years ago he came from far far away and was not particularly well-versed in spirituality or the ways of his people and left his homeworld as a reckless kid on an old outdated ship to seek out a new life in the galaxy. He eventually became friends with a young human lad and they traveled around together until one day an asteroid hit their ship which left them adrift in space for days and almost near-death until they finally crashed on the swampy planet which may have been Dagobah. There they were saved from death by a mysterious figure named N'Kata, an old Jedi Master in spiritual isolation who resided on the planet. He sensed the Force was strong in the two boys as well as their great potential and took them on as his Padawans and eventually sent them off to join the Jedi Order on Coruscant with his blessings and the events of Yoda's past would go down as a legend of which many details had been lost.
 
I hate Nerd Culture so God damn much.

The trouble isn’t nerd culture, it’s the “geek chic” that has arisen over the last ten years or so.

When something goes “mainstream” it inherently has to be watered down almost always.

The 2000s was the best time for nerd culture because there was newfound accessibility and mainstream acceptance, but it was still free to be its own thing.
 
At least that has the easy explanation of Tattooine being psychologically traumatic to Anakin (also no, he was dropped off on the Lars homestead, people who had no relation to Anakin).
They did have a relation by marriage. Owen Lars would certainty of heard tales of how Anakin slew a whole tribe of Sand People.
 
Yeah but honestly if some guy came along and butchered a village of Space Muslims I wouldn't be too concerned.

Going off old EU lore they'd have built Anakin a giant fuck off statue for his service. Not sure how they changed them in the new stuff (i'll be fucked if I read that dreck) but in the older lore Sand People were murderous jerks whose rite of passage into adulthood was the hunt and slowly kill a living creature with bonus points for sapience and how slowly you kill them.
 
To call Sand People space muslims is an understatement. SP were freaking animals with no compassion or understanding for anything, not even among themselves.
This does not change my statement in the slightest.

THEN WHY THE FUCK WAS HIS MURDER OF THEM A BAD ACT?!
