Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

Anyone remember Supershadow? I miss the days when he was made fun of on the star wars forums. I wonder what ever bacame of him?
I remember people used to make fun of him for claiming, among other things, that the Emperor had an official given name ("Dantius" if I recall correctly, which, to be honest, sounds a hell of a lot better in conjunction with "Palpatine" than "Sheev").

Good times.

So since we're talking about Mandos, is Jaster Mereel, the True Mandalorians and Galidraan still canon? Because you dont need Travis to show just how fucking exceptional the Jedi were in the prequel era, you just have to point to Galidraan.
As much as I enjoyed seeing Jango Fett slaughtering Jedi Knights left and right in Open Seasons #3, I think the idea of the Battle of Galidraan was much better than the execution. Although Haden Blackman's script makes it clear that Jango's "True Mandalorian" mercenaries maintain certain ethical standards (other characters note that they don't harm non-combatant civilians), there's still a certain amount of narrative clunkiness imposed by Blackman's wanting you to see Jango as an unabashedly tragic figure on the one hand while simultaneously having him gun down armed rebels on behalf of a corrupt and venal planetary governor simply because the man claims to have information that might allow Jango to avenge his old mentor's death at the hands of the Death Watch faction. Dooku's "my God, what have we done?!?" moment immediately following the battle also comes off as rather hollow and confused, since it's not clear if he's reacting to the dead Jedi, the dead Mandalorians, the fact that he, and by extension the Jedi Order, were manipulated into acting as hitmen for a politician, the fact that the mercenaries he and his knights killed were technically acting on behalf of the local, apparently Republic-acknowledged planetary government, or what, exactly.
 
Aside from Disney's new marketing attempts, I was kinda surprised to hear that they no longer allow visitors to tie wish ribbons on to the wishing tree in the park. Apparently, the reason given is that the owner of the lightsaber shop (Savi) doesn't like outsiders using the wishing tree since its only for locals. My, how very intolerant, discriminatory and noninclusive Disney. I thought this park was about unity and some other such bs.
Some Japanese shrines and temples have racks where you can hang small pieces of wood or similar things with wishes or fears and the people at the shrine or temple will then pray for you. You have to buy said things at the temple, and they regularly remove them to make space for new ones.
The fact that Disney not only didn't think about how to deal with the wishes on the wish tree once the tree starts to become crowded, but also skipped out on a possibility of how to make money off of it, shows their incompetence.

Its kind of odd that they're only going to use these drones once for the opening ceremony when they have the potential to be the only things that might make Galaxy's Edge worth visiting since all they have going for them now is "Drink, shop, drink, shop and then drink some more! But not too much because we have an alcohol limit!" Part of me expects the things to not be ready in time or somehow be underwhelming. And if it turns out to look good, we can probably bet on never seeing them again.
Imagine how awesome it would be to have a couple X-Wing shaped drones and a couple TIE-Fighter shaped drones chase each other over the sky. Just make them on a smaller scale (like 1:4), stick a few speakers on them to make the flight and shooting noises, add a parachute that opens the moment something goes wrong (so the drone doesn't just crashland on some guys) and have them fly in the evening and at night. Would be fucking cool.

local media was saying they just have them going for the big Press Opening, not for the groundling plebs who pay to get in
Beyond stupid. Why make such huge drones at such a cost for a single evening?
 
The parasites are after more than money though, this is beyond simple greed, greed has been a problem for a while for popular culture, but what the fuck is going on with someone like Chuck Wendig?

The mainstream has been pretty shitty for a long time, but what happened to where even the counterculture has gotten turbofucked? As idiotic as mainstream American culture got, at least there was an escape from it, now increasingly there is no escape, the idiocy is infecting and ruining everything.

I know I talk a lot about SJWs, but seriously, what the fuck is their problem? What made them this way? Where is all their malice coming from?

There is a deep seeded rot in the modern world, a sickness, what is the cure?

Simply put, it's Class Conflict. If you listen to the talking points these people make, there is systemic racisim, sexism, and general anti-inclusivity that is inherent in modern society, and it is the responsibility of these individuals - more accurately, the sacred duty - to work inside the system to overturn it ("seize the means of production"), and replace it with one that provides equality to everyone.

Except they wouldn't ever really be the leaders of this society.

How does that translate into lame ass fun hating losers though?

I think the root of the issue is that SJWs are utterly fucking miserable people deep down inside, they hate life and they hate seeing others not feeling as miserable as they are, they hate the thought of people feeling joy when they feel none.

All this crap, all of it, Marxism, feminism, whatever, it's all just a pretense and they know it, their goal is to do nothing more than increase human misery and they know that, deep down inside they know it.

Anyone who is in the least bit content in life is not like them, that's how it is for me, my life has never been perfect, I've been through plenty of hardships same as anyone, but I've always fundamentally been happy to be alive, I've always been fundamentally content.

They saw how much fun us gamers and other pop culture geeks were having and they just had to ruin it, because the only thing that brings them any semblance of joy is inflicting misery in their fellow man, they are evil, they are pure fucking evil from the Pit itself.

Ruining pop culture is their mission now, but trust me, if this shit continues unabated it's only a matter of time until these psychopaths try to put us in death camps and gulags.

This is what the fundamental human conflict has always been about, this is God and Satan, this is good and evil, this is the glass half full or half empty, it all boils down to do you think life on this Earth is worth living despite it's hardships or do you think we'd all be better off dead?

Ironically, SJWs are somehow even more malevolent than literal outright human extinctionists, who are arguably trying to reduce human misery.

I think the internet grew a whole generation of mediocre middle and upper class media wannabes, who weren't cut out for real creative jobs. They have all been staring down the realization that they won't be spared from the economic deterioration that they mocked as "they took er jerbs" 15 years ago, so they are in full scapegoating mode, because it's easier to make up some delusional martyr bullshit than deal with reality. It's funny how all this shit started just as ad rates started to plummet online.

One of the best and most iconic examples of the sheer brazen hypocrisy and arrogance of these scumbags is how they literally told coal miners and other actual people who did real work that was necessary for society to operate, who had lost their jobs, that they should learn to code, then screamed to Mommy Twitter to ban everyone who told them that when they got fired.

That's part of why I look at mass layoffs of these slimeballs with absolute, utter glee every time it happens. Suck on that you useless condescending motherfuckers.

Many people, including most young people, are very narcissistic. So they'll leach on anything relevant and popular to be noticed. Which is why they're sucking the life out of Star Wars because it's both relevant and popular.

I had a lot of respect for these coal miners; they did a hard and honest job for a living, which fueled the industrial revolutions for nearly two centuries. They might have been a relic of a bygone age these days, but they contributed more to human-kind than the slimeballs that infests social media and mainstream media in general.

Social media was a mistake. More than ever. It gave a voice to those who didn't deserve it, and drowned out the voices of the reasonable.
 
Wow... I just checked that comic out and its way worse than what you described...

Like how do they even survive this bullshit? And not only is that big one some OP planet crushing Unicron/Primus-like bullshitter but its actually the "grandmother goddess" of the genderless rock people? I remember reading news articles about this stupid comic with clickbait headlines like "Vader and Chewie finally face off!!" and "3PO and Vader meet again for the first time! What can possibly happen?!" The answer is "FUCKING NOTHING". Like seriously, not even so much as a reaction from Vader upon seeing 3PO, not even a twitch. And the supposed hyped up fight isn't even a fight. Its three pages of Chewie hitting Vader with a rock and hugging him into submission. Literally nothing of actual importance or emotional interest fucking happens except some filler rock people (who could easily fuck up the Empire) disable all tech and blow up a planet like nothing while Han gets cucked to death by Leia's ex. But the worst part is that Vader's reunion with 3PO (which was hyped up on news sites and Disney Wars sites) is so hollow and pointless that it becomes quite clear that their meeting in this comic was only a set up for clickbait articles.

This is literally it. This is the big meeting social media wouldn't shut up about.

And it only bugs me more when you consider how much better Dark Horse handled this "reunion".

View attachment 1022297

Or how TFU handled Vader vs Wookiees.

Also fuck Rock People.

Speaking of Dark Horse, do they still have the comic rights for Alien, Predator and Prometheus?
 
the Legend of Korra (again some "wokeness" in that too but not enough to utterly derail the show)

I've only seen a few episodes of Korra myself. However my impression (admittedly shaded by E;R's reviews) is that the gripes people have about it usually center around a time jump replacing the previous show's beloved cast with an overpowered, abrasive female protagonist that rarely struggles to overcome problems and is inexplicably adored despite being kind of a piece of shit, hamfistedly shoving in anachronistic politics that don't really rise organically from the setting and detract from immersion, and some weirdness with relationships culminating in the main character arbitrarily deciding she's a lesbian 12 seconds before the show ends.

That sounds quite typical of what we'd see in later woke reboots, honestly - since it released in 2012, perhaps you could even call it one of the blueprints for the phenomenon.

Commander Riker isn't with Troi anymore? Also Leia does the Korra look.

So not only is this just a one day thing, but they don't even have the decency to show it to their peasants tourists? Just more bullshit press pandering.


Pretty much. The worst of it could be silly and goofy in a Spock's Brain kind of way, like some goofball imperial with three eyes going whaling for shits and giggles or watching a droid Grand Moff getting his shit fucked (both of which were from kids books aimed at 7-11 and 5-9). While with Disney it just seems to be retcons to make things more appropriate for the Current Year or do things that are outright insulting or demeaning that are on par with titty tard cum Luke to try and shame or wokify everything that came before Disney in a sick attempt at humor and virtue points in books, comics and games that read like they're meant for children but are aimed at adult and young adult readers who find farts at a wedding and space diapers funny.

Wendig is the perfect example of every single thing I hate about so-called writing professionals. Overpromoted, mostly untalented, and a relentless gatekeeper over a medium he isn't fit to carry the jockstrap for. If you haven't seen the takedown of Wendig's work in a format where you don't need to read it, I urge you to do so and get a grasp of just how much of an untalented shit this guy is.

It may be class conflict, but there’s a dimension to it that your average social justice obsessed person tends to miss completely:

They’re much further up the rungs than they think, and a lot of their conflict is fueled by disdain for people below them.

Their idea of “punching up” is ass-backwards since it includes attacking the uneducated, the working class, and people in insular rural cultures.

It really is less about improving the lot of the marginalized and more about ostricizing and exercising power over anyone who can’t do the same “woke” social song and dance as they can. If you don’t know the terms, say the wrong thing or don’t show enough virtue, you’re not worthy to participate in society. I don’t doubt that many of them mean well, but this misplaced priority is how you end up with upper middle class college students unironically screaming at struggling factory workers and farmers that everything is somehow all their fault, because they’re white.

That’s why they still can’t understand the 2016 election, and cling to the “everyone’s racist” excuse despite the fact that they’re far more bourgeois than your average Trump voter.

I just wish they’d stop shitting everything up in the meantime.

Thank you for saying that better and with photos. There is one FURTHER headline from this crapsmear, and it was...amazingly: "NEW MARVEL COMIC SHOWS THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME C-3PO HAS DIED"...sound familiar?

I honestly tried to find the link. It was from the daily-gayer CBR site.
 
I think the root of the issue is that SJWs are utterly fucking miserable people deep down inside, they hate life and they hate seeing others not feeling as miserable as they are, they hate the thought of people feeling joy when they feel none.
The biggest observation I've made is that the most vocal SJWs believe that the solution to socioeconomic issues is not to work to raise up those deemed underprivileged but to emphatically bring down or abase those seen as over privileged. Instead of efforts to boost, improve, or better the people struggling in some way, they instead adopt the immature childlike attitude of, "If we can't be happy/successfully/financially secure, nobody else deserves to be." That attitude and approach does nothing to resolves the issues they want addressed and only further the us vs. them attitude and drives a deeper wedge between people.

With Star Wars, the OT told an amazing tale. sure, the PT had its flaws, but it still provided a backstory for key characters and the events that gave us what we saw years ago in the previous films. The ST, however, has been a disjoint mishmash that fails to tell any type of cohesive tale and goes out of its way to bring down the Lucas-era characters in a heavy-handed attempt to force fans to accept and like new characters that don't come close to being as charismatic, relatable, or interesting as their Lucas-era counterparts. The question, "Who is X and why should I care?" could be asked about any of the new characters in the ST because there's no plausible answer that could be given for any of them.

As stated consistently by thread regulars, these characters had the potential to be impressive and awesome in their own way, but the focus on wokeness, check box ticking, and a general "Fuck the old characters" attitude was so much more important that we instead ended up with new characters that are incomplete, undeveloped, pointless, and unrelateable in a story that -- thanks to having multiple writers/directors -- lacks both a coherent plot and, from what can be gathered from the leaks, a lack of a meaningful wrap-up in the trilogy's finale.

As examples of wrap-up (in order of the release of films), the OT ends with Vader and the Emperor dead, seemingly freeing the galaxy from 20-plus years of Imperial rule and oppression. Conversely, the PT ends with the Emperor rising to power and making his presence and tyranny known to all while Vader becomes his feared enforcer in a period where the only people powerful enough to stand up to this evil have been systematically targeted and largely mass-murdered. Worse, any hope to stand up to this villainy has to wait because that hope has been staked on a set of newborn twins who have been hidden to conceal their lineage and won't be ready to challenge the galaxy's evil until they reach their age of majority and learn what's necessary to fulfill their destiny.

The ST so far lacks any type of setup for a satisfying conclusion. All we've seen through 2 of 3 films is sheer incompetence by both the heroes and the villains to the point that it seems like the incompetence itself is the main (if not sole) reason both sides remain in conflict with each other.
 
They had rock people in the old EU. They were called Shards.
Technically the Shards were more like living shards of shiny crystals that really couldn't move or do much of anything on their own except communicate unless they had droid hosts, and they couldn't turn into literal people. The ones in Marvel are more like knockoffs of the Brrknaa from the old Droids comic, except the Brrknaa couldn't do half the shit the Marvel ones can, much less blow up a planet. Although now that I think of it, Marvel's Rock People honestly feel even more like a knockoff of the Brrknaa than I realized in terms of them being living rock men and that they are initially hostile but become friendly through 3PO.

Also for context, "Fuck Rock People" sounds more catchy than saying "fuck these particular Rock People in this specific comic" while also being a nod to the E;R video I posted below the comment. "Fuck Rock People" is a pretty good slogan overall. And if a couple of Shards get offended over it, well sacrifices must be made.

Pretty much Disney in a nutshell.
