Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

The handsome tard said:
Man I just realized how long that was, this is starting to sound like a Star Wars Theory video "What if Ep 7 was better written". I did have more so maybe if you want, I can post a "part 2" later on. This isnt meant to be a fanfiction, more just me sharing ideas I think could have built a much better setting and narrative and I just gotten lost in it.

Post more, this thread is full of "what ifs" and they're interesting.

Seriously how the fuck did Disney get the rights to Dragonball?

Is it because Fox owned the rights to Dragonball Evolution?

Pretty much if I had to guess.

Like, what the fuck are they going to even do with them though? Because you COULD kind of do what quite a few animated movies already did, which was retell certain sagas through a new way. Is that literally going to be what they do? Just with actors who will go on about how Tienanmen and Hong Kong didn't happen?

Oh boy, we might see a Latino uprising in rage if they do and pull a TLJ.

Know what I'd do? Explore other characters, other stories.... IN THE PAST! I mean, how long have these Dragon Balls existed? Didn't other people hunt them before Goku and pals? What about the wider universe? Namek had it's own Dragon Balls, does everybody? We have Saiyans and Nameks and whateverthefuck Frieza was, so... Why not make something within the DB universe that we haven't seen yet?

None of the major sources like Variety or Deadline, nor Disney or Toei, have confirmed it from what I saw, this might be wishful thinking from a shiller.

I was almost worried there for a minute. But Dragon Ball isn't what I usually hear Disney drones clamoring for. All I ever see them brag and preach about in their forums and wikis is their desire to see Disney buy Studio Ghibli so "we can finally get live action remakes and sequels!" To HELL with that. Its like taking a beautiful classical painting and replacing it with an HD photograph of ugly idiots doing cheap cosplay.

I would love to see Nameless Namekian: The Movie. The story of an orphan escaping his planet as an ecological disaster (a global megadrought) renders it a near wasteland of extinction. He crashes on earth, and grows to both love and hate the flaws of man as he is forced to live among them. He grows, and learns of the Guardian, an ancient protector of this world, similar to the Grand Elder of his, and meets him.

He and a fellow student learn under this person, before the Guardian admits he is growing old and dying soon. He sadly however rejects both his students, as they have impure souls and selfish reasons to want his title. The Son of Katas at first rejects this statement and he and his former friend Garlic leaves in rage. But then he realizes that it's true; one of the reasons he sought out the Guardian (God) is that he hated to be among humans. So he meditates to cut off and seperate these evil and hateborn desires away, which weakens, but purifies him. He returns to his dying master and gets the title, but he then gets his first issue: his evil has manifested as an entity known as Piccolo, and is wreaking havoc on earth.

He goes down, and with the help of the great martial artist Mutaito (whom he meets as a young man and who is a reason why he doesn't purely reject humanity), and his pupils Muten and Shen, seal the demon away in a move that costs the Mutaito his life.

The new Guardian (Kami) gives his condolences and goes back to the tower to muse.

Cue a Garlic Sr. out for revenge, using an evil Djinni he found in the wastes known only as Mr. Popo as a tool to usurp Kami from his spot in an end stinger.

And if the Rat steals this like they stole Garfield, I will demand my damn check.

That's good shit right there. Kami/Piccolo honestly have enough lore, character and potential between them to deserve their own fucking series. I'd pay to see their shit rather than more Goku+Vegeta wankery like in the mess that is Super. Personally though, I'd also love to see something involving Tien and how his mysterious Three Eye clan died out and what tragedy befell them and Tien to turn him into such a cold and emotionless cynic who seems to not even care whether his kind dies out (although that may just be due to Toriyama not caring that much about his first characters since the Z series started all those years ago).

Regret to inform you Japan already tried to do live-action Ghibli and now Disney haves a benchmark.

Disney Developing New Live-Action Dragon Ball Movie With Asian Cast

Disney is reportedly in the early stages of developing a new live-action Dragon Ball movie and the big-budget film is set to feature a fully Asian cast.

RIP DBZ.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!?

This is both shocking as hell, but also makes perfect sense, because I got heavy Dragon Ball vibes from Avengers Infinity War, I can actually see this working.

Not saying Disney won't find a way to mess it up, but I can see potential.

And anime adaptations should feature Asian casts, that just makes sense, this is one instance in which the modern obsession with diversity is actually a good thing.

I don’t see the prospects of Bob Iger and the neckbeards on his board suddenly think a woke live-action DBZ film would be a genius idea.

Ok so apparently the Fallen Order Cutscenes were leaked
Click to expand...
What? Already? That was quick. Did a certain country get the game early? Did a journalist leak the whole thing? Or did some "anonymous insider" leak it? If its the last one then I'll lmao. Not only is their so much disappointment within Lucasfilm that their own employees have been leaking shit for the past year, but now even those in EA are stabbing each other (more so than usual). So how many goofy faces are there? How many planets? Also judging from the Steam page, it seems this game will have a lot of DLC and buyable in-game items that include skins, re-colors, and armor, weapon and ship alterations among other things.

Anyway, changing the topic real quick here, the Sonic trailer is about to break 1 million likes with only 14k dislikes while Plan 9 is still stuck on 495k and 89k dislikes.

At the rate its going, this may actually hit 30 million views by the end of the month or sooner.

Someone was watching the cutscenes on Mauler's discord. He said the story was pretty tismic

Tismic? Also do Quasimodo and his pals get progressively uglier?

The longer I think about it, the more I like a random idea I recently had, where the movies avoid showing Snoke but Kylo Ren is constantly touting Snoke's orders to obliterate fucking everything. When the inevitable point is reached, where the good guys decide to get Kylo Ren out of Snoke's grasp, they get into his throne room and realize that Snoke had been killed by Kylo som long time ago and all the crazy orders that Kylo Ren said were coming from Snoke were his own and he has taken over the FO.

Also, might have been fun to start out with Ben Solo still being Luke's Padawan and Ben's fall is initiated when Luke and Ben stumble upon Rey, who is a natural talent as a Force user, but has absolutely no control over her abilities and thus is a danger to herself and others. Like, make Rey an introvert that salvages stuff, sells it off and leaves the settlement ASAP, since she's afraid that she accidently hurts someone. Luke understands that he has to give Rey a couple lectures quickly, or else she'll be in some deep shit. Ben gets mad that he's not getting enough training from Luke and then gets into a conflict with Luke, which makes him switch sides to the FO.
Might be too similar to Anakin's story, but with the "Snoke is dead and it was Kylo all along!"-twist, it might work.

I mean, it's a very rough outline for a plot, but I think it could be servicable. Maybe make Kylo Ren literally be a Norman Bates-like character with a split personality or something.
Click to expand...

They could have done so much here, with keeping Kylo good, at least for a bit

I want Kylo to go full "I am the harbringer" on a crowd of innocents because he senses "darkness"

I want to see Kylo go anakin on a bunch of red flare/red fusion cutters miners or something, without hesistation, because they look like siths in the fog

I want to see a Rey dressed like a fucking death core of krieg soldier have her only friend exposed to some Stormtrooper rage drug while scrapping the ship on war torn scrap planet Jakky, to desperately rush them off planet on a barely working Falcon that got shot down over 60 years ago, that they were established to have painstakingly repaired, going off planet for medical aid, only to have the new "evilchlorians" detected and the friend terminated when the drug would have worn off anyway.

Where they meet Han and he basically tells them "nah, I fucked off of that republic crap", then he swindles her out of the ship, only to not be able to fly it because they did such a terrible fucking job fixing it it's a miracle they even got out of atmosphere"

This whole, "hurr durr no real evil" comes off like a kid who realized for the first time that what made Hitler such a horrible person wasn't just what he did, but how often he was doing it with a smile, and sleeping like a baby.

Kylo you genocided half the fucking solar system in a matter of minutes. You have lost the right to moral ambiguiety. Like holy fuck, if we go by 40K standards thats hundreds of trillions of people. You could have blown up like, 3 planets. 1 planet. Fuck just do a warning shot.

YOU CAN EAT FUCKING SUNS KYLO. THATS INTIMIDATING ENOUGH
