Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

[Blamo]

It's not like Disney takes their new canon seriously either.

I am sure they prefer the flexibility comic books movies provide. You can reboot them regularly. They didn't show any willingness to treat SW as a coherent universe so far. The ST just feels like an attempt to reboot the OT.

With how iconic the Original Star Wars is they can't just remake it openly. But I am sure they would be happy to make endless X-wings blow up Triangle ship media if they weren't hindered by the fact that a story and world already exists.

Star Trek got the same treatment. The nu-movies started with rebooting TOS. Nobody asked for it, but they could have creative freedom, if they blow the universe into it's parts and reassemble it again.

They are already good at destroying, it is a pity the making something part is still lacking.

Explains the Lore channels sudden obsessions with nu-SW comics starting a few years ago with a ton of Darth vader comics making it look like he is more omnipotent than divine being and can appear half way across the galaxy at the drop of a hat.

 

[PseudoScrooge]

It won't be long before they re-canonize a huge chunk of Legends lore to support their mess of a canon, or maybe even retcon the Sequels so they can have a do-over with Wolfman Filoni and Jon Favreau on the helm. Not even the people who made the Sequel Trilogy LIKE the Sequel Trilogy-Disney isn't satisfied with it, the people who worked on it are embarrassed by it, and the people who made it probably want a do-over. Only the spergy SJWs who obsess over critical theory like it, all the fans hate it and want it gone. And now that Filoni's prominence in Disney canon is assured, any such rewrites of said trilogy will involve him and Favreau since that's what most normie fans would want.

I want to build on this a little bit: in Current Year, if your film doesn't do as well as you'd like, you (the studio) can get a redo...something that was never allowed in years past (aside from releasing a "Director's Cut" years later, which slowly became a thing). I guess the best recent example of this is Justice League. I would've put money on the fact that Disney was going to "fix" some things and rerelease their Nu-Wars trilogy in a new boxed set or something.

And yet they don't seem to want to. Either they don't want to put another dime into it (after over a year of massive COVID losses), and/or they just want you to forget it, and look in the opposite direction, where there are other new and shiny things (meaning their stupid new shows) to distract the viewer.

I think they will continue to do the bare minimum (like what can be accomplished with floods of lackluster comic book stories and shitty novels), but it's a little baffling, considering they have a whole wing of their theme parks that needs to be directly tied to the ST, if it's going to survive and not continue to be a confusing mess. One thing about the Mouse, they always seem to do the dumbest thing that's available.

There is nothing beautiful to look at in these films and what is worse much of it is crowded, moves too fast and is like looking at it through a paper towel tube.

I agree. TFA is shot like a TV show (that's what happens when you get a TV director with ADHD to make your movie). TLJ tries way too hard to be """beautiful""" but has ugly as fuck color grading and doesn't even look like a Star Wars movie, and TROS is more of that ADHD Jar Jar Abrams BS. I could go into more detail but overall the three films are visually inconsistent with each other and none of them fit with the OT or PT. JJ and Rian saw how people shat on Lucas for the visuals of the PT and created visuals that were the exact opposite.

SW is a write off for them. Its Disney's woke test bed, where they boil the frogs.
The ST is too fucked up to fix without massive reshoots; possibly too fucked up to fix with them as EPIX showed us.

I'm more than sure that TFA, TLJ, and TROS already had large amounts of reshoots per film for the finished films already. It doesn't matter because the scripts were awful and the directors are hack morons.

 

[Godzilla@1989]

Lol, this scene alone is better than the What If Trilogy.

I love how the dialogue between Hayden and Samuel L Jackson makes it sound like it takes place after ROTS.

I only vaguely remember this movie, but I think I played the video game tie-in because it was an easy completion when I was an idiot kid who cared about gamerscore.

I dont think there were achievements for EP3's game tie-in.

Shame. There were a few really cool enemy ideas, like the clone assassins and grapple droids that never left that game.
Were a hell of a lot less cringe than the inquisitors.

 

[The Valeyard]

I was talking about Jumper: Griffin’s Story which was a prequel to the movie Jumper.

There weren't.
Achievements became a thing later that year when the Xbox 360 was released.

 

[Creep3r]

Wait, I thought the explanation in the NuEU was that the First Order or Inperial Remnant went on a genocide spree after ROTJ and that's why we barely saw any of the original aliens?

That's just the Hidalgo-approved explanation for in-universe faggotry. The real reason is that the people making these movies don't know jackshit about SW. IX was the most shameless example of this and you can even search up past links in this thread where the crew for IX even admits that they barely watched the movies or think that the Death Star from ROTJ is the same Death Star from ANH.

Rex was the guy the twins were talking too. Makes you wonder what the point was of keeping his identity a secret when he's outed at the beginning of this episode almost immediately.

The Bad Batch have raked up giant debt because Wrecker and Omega bill piles of junk food to Cid... Why do they have access to Cid's bank account?

So, the Bad Batch never thought of getting their chips out until Rex came along to go "You know, those chips that make you turn on your friends and family might be a bit risky to keep around even if you're sure you're immune to them."

Wrecker's been having 'I'm totally going to turn' freak outs all day, is getting very agressive and no one thinks to restrain him when they're about to perform surgery on his brain.

Wrecker goes on a rampage, but it doesn't really go anywhere, just has him almost firing at Omega and then getting knocked out by Rex. And that's the payoff for a couple of episodes of foreshadowing. Yay.

They get their chips removed. Rex reveals he's apart of the Rebellion and contact, presumably, Ahsoka; which I'm pretty sure is another set of retcons.

Scrappers (the bad batch went to the junk planet from Fallen Order) spot them and call in the Empire. The end.

This episode feels like it's supposed to be a progression of the main plot, but it doesn't feel like anything really happens. Like, you could have just said they'd removed their chips offscreen and little would be lost.

Another week, another forced bunch of cameos... Also they had their chips this whole time and they just didn't work because... reasons? Except for one which activated late...? And they're in heavy debt because a kid and a retard are eating too much junk food at a bar? What?

Wrecker also gets attacked by a Dianoga while The Bad Batch and Rex are exploring the wreckage of a Venator-class Star Destroyer for an extra dose of memberberries.

How long until Filoni, a writer on twitter or some Wookieepedo confirms that its the exact same Dianoga from ANH? The Disney Wars galaxy is getting smaller with each new entry.

"Ohmahgawd, guys, my heart totally stopped when Wrecker went terminator for a minute and did jackshit! I was so scared that they'd have him do anything meaningful."

You'd think by this point most people would see through such flimsy 'tension'.

From what I've read about this guy, all he does is talk like a retard and get beaten up by girls all the time despite being the strongest. Does he do anything at all in this show?

As stated above, they are more "monster" than alien. As many have said they look like they should have been on the 5th Element or something like that. I blame this look on originating with Neil Scanlin (however it is spelled).

They are gross with sickly flesh colors, small human faces and are not pleasant to look at. It was laziness combined with arrogance that lead to the look of almost everything in the ST as the "designers" wanted this to be "their" star wars. I just cant quite come to terms with the percentages that should be allocated to laziness/ignorance vs. arrogance on the designs.

This is why it looks like the Falcon, C-3PO, R2-D2 and Chewbacca (things they could not change) suddenly appeared in a different film franchise. Even the costumes Leia wore dont look like they would exist in Star Wars.

Anyone who says of the ST films "well, at least they are pretty to look at" is a liar or an idiot. There is nothing beautiful to look at in these films and what is worse much of it is crowded, moves too fast and is like looking at it through a paper towel tube.

I realize we have spent over 2,000 pages harping on this, but I still cant say enough that every aspect of these films is an abject failure and complete trash.

Calling them monsters or mutants probably sums them up best since that's what they look like. They look less like aliens and more like what you'd find in a scifi horror film set in the future inside of some lab or "underground mutant city" where they keep all the freaks, mutants and genetic failures. In fact, the Disney alien designs remind me of the mutated guild navigators from the 1984 adaptation of Dune.

 

[The Valeyard]

With the retcon in From a Certain Point of View where the Dianoga was a priestess just trying to give Luke a baptism, would that make Wrecker force-sensitive?

From what I've read about this guy, all he does is talk like a retard and get beaten up by girls all the time despite being the strongest. Does he do anything at all in this show?

He fought Muchi to a standstill which tired them both out, and that’s about it.

 

[Creep3r]

With the retcon in From a Certain Point of View where the Dianoga was a priestess just trying to give Luke a baptism, would that make Wrecker force-sensitive?

"He is the miracle Force clone who will actually start the Rebel Alliance as spoken of by the holy Prophet Rey (praise be upon her) in the Marvelian Reyquran chapter of Rey-Anfal!"

(Gosh I miss the days when Dianogas were just mindless eldritch sewer monsters)
Also I remember when Disney fags used to brag about how with Disney, continuity would be so clean and straightforward that now the Rebel Alliance would have a single and concise founding. Now there's a new alliance founder every six months and now we have the Rebel Alliance operating the same as it does in the OT era and existing no less than right after ROTS.

With how iconic the Original Star Wars is they can't just remake it openly. But I am sure they would be happy to make endless X-wings blow up Triangle ship media if they weren't hindered by the fact that a story and world already exists.

Star Trek got the same treatment. The nu-movies started with rebooting TOS. Nobody asked for it, but they could have creative freedom, if they blow the universe into it's parts and reassemble it again.

They are already good at destroying, it is a pity the making something part is still lacking.

That's all the ST/DT was. They considered the OT too outdated but didn't want to lose money from boomers and nostalgiafags, which is why the DT was basically the OT 2.0 so they could then do a whole new sequel SEQUEL trilogy right after that one which would be the "ideal sequels for ROTJ" but with Rey and friends in their own not-ROTJ replacing those outdated fossils... It was a shameless strategy that was all there in black and white. Its also quite clear they didn't want to pay royalties to anyone, much like with Star Trek, so you end up getting Disney's Chinese knockoff SW universe.

Imagine making The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi look like high art with your adolescent cringe.

(No, nothing can be as bad as The Fail of Soywalker.)

Continuing to honor Darthipedia, I present:

Entries of Keeeeekkkkk! Vol 2. Vong Shit.

Disclaimer: The following is a humorous entry. If you are unable to processes humor or lack self awareness; the following may cause you massive butthurt. We recommend Rian Johnson Anal Cream. Rian Johnson Anal Cream, perfect for anyone with Butthurt.

A race of masochistics, the Vong decided to invade the galaxy after they grew bored torturing each other.

Pictured, a healthy Vong family with their son undertaking the adult ritual CENSORED. During this ritual the CENSORED FOR PURE INNOCENT EYES.

The Vong immediately proceeded to conqueror half the galaxy, as the New Republic was reeling from the release of Chief of State Felya's pee tape by the Moff Council. The Empire was also useless as a furious Peallon made them go stand in the corner.

Despite this, the NuSpace Hippy Order tried to 'stop' the Vong.

Pictured a Jedi 'selflessly' takes the 'punishment' of a Vong woman. So selfless.

The Vong used weird plant ships. They claimed to hate technology. Yet they always exposed themselves to it so they could receive 'punishment.'

Vong ships appeared to function by tentacle raping their crew.

A brave Vong worry gets in his weird ship.

Okay, that's enough. Yes the Vong....were a bit much. But hey, they were better than other...things.

That fucking mountain.

And we did get an alternative

Fine. Bring on the Space Orcs into BDSM. I'm depressed now and going to drink some Blue Milk.

They were said to not work in the first episode because of the genetic mutations that make the Bad Batch different from regular clones. Except Crosshair, who was just not mutated enough to resist the chip fully. Wrecker's just activated eventually. And then they all get their chips removed, making this plot point pointless anyway.

Basically, the episode has Cid, their boss saying a lot of their pay is getting cut because of the expenses they're costing her. Hunter looks at a list of what she's talking about and is utterly confused as to when they bought all this crap. Cut to Wrecker and Omega buying a bunch of junk food, referencing that they do this after every mission, and telling the merchant to bill Cid. Why the manchild and the literal child are allowed to do this, I have no idea.

From what I've read about this guy, all he does is talk like a retard and get beaten up by girls all the time despite being the strongest. Does he do anything at all in this show?

He's a gentle giant who loves explosions. That's his character. His chip activating is the only important thing he does in the show, and all that does is give us a short scene where he slaps around his friends and then gets stunned. Then he, and everyone else, gets their chips removed in the very episode where the chip is made to be a danger.

It's weird that the Vong were so accepted as part of the universe that WotC put them into their miniatures game from around 2005-2006. At the time I had never even heard of them - but there they were with all the characters and factions from the prequel and original trilogies.

Unfortunately there was no chance that Disney was gonna use something they didn't "think of", no matter how cool it would have been.

I genuinely did not realize the SWG legends team suddenly shit out all of bespin without warning. Fucking based.
I guess I know what i'm doing until starbase stops being delayed.
