Daily reminder that Ahsoka is best waifu

CHOSEN THREAD

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE

THREAD

First post, best post.
Shit pic tho.

The mention of muscles from the last thread got me thinking.

If you had to cast The Rock/Dwayne Johnson as a character from the EU, who would you have him play?

Ahsoka Mano.

A stormtrooper.

CAN YOU SMELL WHAT THE BARON IS COOKING

Yoda's son who has to finish Rey's training after Luke dies at the end of Episode VIII.

Yeah, I know. I'm going to make better art than that. The creative arts is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.

Bane

Just become a photographer and hire models to dress as the characters you want.

S-sorry, user :(

He could be The Rukh.
He's Thrawn bodyguard.

Ok, what are we expecting from Rogue One? And is anyone hyped for it, that's not a hardcore fan, because I really want this movie to do well and usher in some nice, quality Star Wars movies that aren't a part of trilogies.

Photography is easy and you can't take photos of fantasy\sci-fi\numerous things anyway

who is the Doomguy of Star Wars?

>Ok, what are we expecting from Rogue One?
Disney did their boring safe 'look you can trust us with the ip' movie already with VII.
Maybe they'll try something new. Or maybe they'll just milk the franchise for everything it's worth.

I'm afraid it's gonna be a by the numbers movie set in the star wars universe though.

Sure you can, user. It's called Photoshop Magic.

I mean, if you want to be literal about it? Kyle Katarn, seeing as his first few games were basically just a conversion of Doom....

Only the first game was Doom, and DFII is the best Star Wars game bar none.

Having recently played those games, I feel like you're a little blinded by nostalgia....

They were amazing for their time, but age has not been kind to them....

>nostalgia

I just played through Dark Forces II, actually. I feel like it held up pretty well. Besides the graphics, what do you think aged poorly about it?

...

Is this meant as non-cringey?

I think this one's better

Wait, I somehow confused 1 as 2 because I am dumb. Just booted it up.

Still don't think that the controls and the graphics hold up well though. It's just doesn't feel as good to play as modern titles.

I'd play the new Battlefront over it if I wanted to play a star wars game that actually controlled well desu.

>desu

I forgot that it still auto corrected to that in posts. Oh well.

Fair enough. I rank it about on par with the original Half Life, which is similar and I also feel held up pretty well. Just a matter of perspective, I guess.

I think DF2 is ok, but I may be biased since I usually replay it after DF1.
Seriously, DF1 levels are far too often incomprehensible, and sometime even the "explore any loose ends of the shitty ass map" won't save you.

> Rewatching S3 Ep 11
> spot this

This rodian beauty seems to be a popular poster.

>Fair enough. I rank it about on par with the original Half Life
Seriously? HL was goat

I admit, not bad.

Who ate his shoulder, though?

May be the third person view, but I find DF2 to be more difficult to navigate. And the levels are truly gigantic.

>Who ate his shoulder, though?
You've never seen a man with a fappin' arm before?

I miss SWG

I wanted a visual interpretation of this, so I did some photoshopping.

We were going to have a guild it in, but there was a lack of interest at the time
swgemu.com/forums/forum.php

stuh wuzz

No one ever managed to be on at the same time as me, so I never could get people into the guild....

Only way to do it (that I can figure out at least), is by adding people that are near me in game, which means I can invite people into the game unless we're on at the same time. If I could get a few people in and give them the ability to add people would be easier, but there's just not enough interest....

into the guild not into the game

I'm sorry, words are hard.

I was interested in it, but I just don't have the free time to commit to it.

Don't want to join, only to abandon it soon after, like I sort of did with the Commander group.

pastebin.com/fRajXXsq
And here's a tutorial I made. I also was hyped to join like but I have no time to play videogames. Fuck my life.

Has Force Jesus Anakin ever done anything unparalleled or impressive for a Jedi or a Sith?

Killed the emperor.

There's the Mortis arc for one

Most of his "muh chosen one" stuff was about the potential he had, but never quite reached.

But if you want examples of crazy shit he did that other Jedi couldn't, he;

>Jumped out of hyperspace into the middle of a space battle

and

>Controlled the Son and Daughter Celestials on Mortis

Those are two feats no other Jedi or Sith have ever done, as far as we know.

The hyperspace thing is, slightly less impressive now though, thanks to JJ making Han able to Hyperspace safely into a planet, without even being Force sensitive.

Wasn't Mortis just a three-way shared dream

>thanks to JJ making Han able to Hyperspace safely into a planet
Honestly if somebody could do that other than a force sensitive then an old Han Solo could do it. I mean, this is the guy that did the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs.

Was there an ultra fast battle of wills in the force we couldn't detect or did he just throw a distracted old man down a shaft?

That's what they wanted you to believe.

We still don't know what Filoni's endgame to all this is.

>That pic
WAIT WHAT

too much pottery

There's a lot of allusions to the Owl and the Celestials too, but when asked about it Filoni just laughs and avoids the questions, saying we wont know the truth for a long time.

Less than.

Or too much reused assets.

>"Few still know of our existence."
Do you guys think Snoke knows about Mortis?

Also I think we're probably going to get some Mortis pottery in the ST (assuming Rian has seen TCW). Just think, Rey could be the daughter, Kylo could be the son, and Luke could be the father if he is more of a grey Jedi now. Not literal biology, but in pottery.

>assuming Rian has seen TCW
Do you genuinely believe the directors are the only authority on what gets put into the movies?

>assuming Rian has seen TCW

You know he hasn't user

No no, it's poetry. POETRY.

I've read a lot of theories about Snoke being a Celstial. I'd be 100% ok with it. It directly comes from the barely-used lore Lucas left, and actually presents a legitimate greater threat that isn't just Sheev 2.0, without discrediting the previous threats in the franchise.

In fact, it's too good to be true.

God in Heaven, that painting is from Star #ars galaxies. The artist used the ign of Zel. Her whole guild (MASC) were nothing but assholes and scumbags. So glad that game is dead.

To be fair he's shown knowledge in some really obscure canon shit like the force tree in Shattered Empire and has been involved in Bloodlines. I wouldn't be surprised if he's seen it since it's one of the most important things in canon other than the movies.

I think the Force Tree was part of the plan all along. Things like that and the general outlines for the movies were planned way before Episode 7 came out

Even if he hasn't seen TCW I'm sure Lucasfilm has regular meetings about lore and the direction of Star Wars in general. In fact I know they do.

> Snoke being a Celstial.
That would be too awesome.
But I doubt they'd ever have him be that.
"Too confusing for the casual fans" or something like that.

And OT Elitists would definitely hate the idea, seeing as they hated midichlorians and want the force to be "mystical" and "unexplained".

do we have to be twi'leks to join?

Well the Celestials were pretty mysterious weren't they? It was the first arc in TCW that attempted to prove the Force was still mysterious, the second being the Yoda arc.

Kathleen Kennedy very likely did watch TCW, because she's close friends with Lucas. The Lucasfilm Story Group have probably watched TCW repeatedly.

I wouldn't be surprised if they used the Mortis arc as a starting point for new ideas, considering those episodes always seem to be fan favorites whenever people mention TCW.

The movie directors may not have watched TCW. (They may have, I don't really know. I doubt any of them will admit they haven't, because they're all shitscared of being seen as not real fans)

But the directors aren't the ones coming up with the overall story. In fact, people seem to keep forgetting that Lucas left an outline for the next three movies (and the Han Solo movie)

Granted they apparently changed a lot of his TFA plan, but still. It's entirely possible it was him who suggested Snoke be a Celestial, and possible that Kathleen/LSG/The movie writers have kept that idea.

Isn't that image from swg?

No, is just the name of the guild.

Is creating a sw webcomic a good idea?

Oh man, this pic takes me back. I remember when it was being done, the Twillek and Mon Cal were two members of the guild that died in a car crash. I was so freaking happy to see it included as an in game painting. Pic related is another pic from the guild master, Zell. She made the best freaking sigs, animated to boot. Anyway, this is a pic of my toon Tashaa in Restiss(sp?). Cost a billion credits, but it was worth it.

Fancomic? No.

Official canon comic? YES

That depends, is it going to have a plot and a story(doesn't matter if it's pornographic) or is it just going to be filled with nothing but porn and no discernable plot? Is it going to be filled with cringe-fest oc characters or are you going to make some effort on making well-rounded characters?

Nah, for me she isn't

Go for it.

A poem about tight budget?

But user, it can't be canon if it's not made by the original creators.>Is it going to be filled with cringe-fest oc characters
Gods no. I created this character called Kylo Ren but then I realized... this character kinda sucks!
>or are you going to make some effort on making well-rounded characters?
imagine basically snips and skyguy + this song as a webcomic youtube.com/watch?v=TxhKfw0KEUc

How the fuck has nobody typed up the Adventures in Wild Space books?

Why the fuck haven't you gone and bought the books after this much whining?

Star Wars is baby shit for babies.

Why was Papa Palpatine so strong in the force when he learned of his sensitivity so late and didn't have any family history of strong force users?

DO NOT REPLY TO THIS FAG
He wants them (You)s.

...

oh shit

Realizing that Rogue One is just a sci-fi remake of Where Eagles Dare, but with klaxons instead of drums?

It's so long until Rogue One and Star Wars Celebration Orlando....

Hopefully EAs announcements on the 12th won't be disappointing. I NEED NEW STAR WARS THINGS TO KEEP ME FEELING ALIVE.

I find this thread's lack of Grievous disturbing.

Hope you enjoy more mobile freemium shit and on-disc DLC.

Also, have fun with playing as Mon Mothma and General Veers in Battlefront on the Death Star map

>Mon Mothma and General Veers in Battlefront on the Death Star map
What?

>learned of his sensitivity so late
Common.

>didn't have any family history of strong force users
Also common.

GoH is fun, but running out of interesting things to do in it. I actually like EA's Battlefront, but am waiting for the sequel and am not buying the DLC.

What I'm really waiting for is info on the Amy Hennig Project and the other games. I'm at a pont where I'm just really sort of lost for anything of interest.

I'm not really interested in the comics or the books really. Not like either of them will have any true effect on what's in the movies.

Just throwing out shit at random. Tried to work along the lines of 'how do we top Greedo and Niem Numb in terms of randomness/unexpectedness over someone people actually want to play. For fun, mind you; I'm not trying to be a dick or anything.

Kinda brings back memories of that pic advertising Ringo Starr's guitar for Beatles: Guitar Hero.

Just caught up with the last thread and it's "muscle" moment?

>Not like either of them will have any true effect on what's in the movies.
In the comic Shattered Empire Luke begins building the Jedi temple that will appear in Episode 8.

Is that confirmed, or what people think it is?
