Old Republic era content when? Wasn' there a guidebook or visual dictionary that was supposed to be coming out?

Maybe it'll actually get dark now.

No more kiddie bullshit

It's a children's show.

Good one user

So was TCW, and that was adult

TCW was on CN, Rebels is on Disney XD. That makes all the difference.

fuck disney

Would you?

Yes.
no homo though

Disney didn't end Clone Wars. They probably would have continued it if Warner Brothers wasn't so dead set on retaining the rights.

>>Pedophilia
Hey, you're the one who gave his relationship with Stakko that weird, intense vibe. They even commented on it in-story!

>Sure. Though I thought there's some fair description in there... Like bracers, boots and a cheap chestpiece.
Just wondering about colors and specific appearance.

(Anyway, Beim has pants... now.)

They wouldn't have. Dave is on record as saying TCWs was Lucas' baby and none of them felt right continuing it without him. All they've given us since them on TCWs is stuff that was already plotted out before he retired.

What are improvements the new canon has made over Legends/the EU?

WB never had the rights to TCW. The closest they had was a distribution deal for the movie in 2008- they had absolutely nothing to do with the show beyond that.

The biggest improvement so far has been removing Legends and EU.

What?

It's better connected.

Killing Boba for good and Jango is no longer a Mango

why the fuck was that film a theatrical release

They needed a way to advertise the series

The Vong don't exist.

but it was embarrassing

>TCW was cancelled before the Vong were added to it

Don't

>Killing Boba for good

He's still alive. It's just a matter of time before we get his story.

It improved Darth Vader. In Legends he was slow and weakass. The new canon has made Vader as physically capable as he was before his prosthesis and rightfully far more powerful given he's a construct of the force. It's possibly debatable now that he is/was one of the most powerful Sith Lords and force weilders to have ever lived.

But yeah. To anyone who isn't a main film protagonist or Darth Sidious, he's an unstoppable nightmare. There is no chance of victory against him.

>He's still alive.

We don't know that for certain. Mind you, the Sarlacc keeps its victims alive as it digests them. If the Jawas pulled him out, there's a good chance it could've killed him.

>Ezra has a green lightsaber now

I'm really digging the Italian gangster look

Wouldn't it make sense for his suit and prosthetics to weigh him down though? Not to mention he is in agonizing physical pain every waking second.

You stream it, i'll join it.

When the suit is sealed it completes some kind of "system" with his limbs, making the pain lessen and make him feel whole again.

>Wouldn't it make sense for his suit and prosthetics to weigh him down though?

Oh yeah. He's still heavy as fuck. But you also have to take into account his own natural parts compensating, and boosts from the force (not unlike how he did before the prostheses).

>Not to mention he is in agonizing physical pain every waking second.

Not anymore. All of it connects directly to his nervous system. Once the helmet goes on and completes the connection, the suit, the prosthetics feel as much apart of him as his own organic parts. Though out of the helmet, yes, he feels the nubs of his limbs and everything. And he uses that pain to feed his anger, that to fuel his hate, and all of that to deepen his connection to the force.

Yes I would a young Snoke.

Never mind. I am become error

The last few years before the Disney buyout, the EU was doing a good job making Darth Vader threatening again, and I'm really glad that's been continued.

I highly recommend checking out Darth Vader and the Lost Command and Darth Vader and the Ghost Prison. I've yet to read the Ninth Assassin yet, but I'd imagine it's following the same principle.

The Hapes Cluster doesn't exist anymore, to my knowledge. I think Dathomir still does, unfortunately.

...

>I think Dathomir still does

It does.

Post characters who would probably go to the Dark Side.

Bonus points for Sith names.

>I RAPED HER
>I MURDERED HER
>I KILLED HER PADAWANS

Wait wait, did I fucking miss something, is there a season three clip or trailer out?

M8, the kiddie stuff went away long ago

>Kiddie bullshit

Still be far more adult then any Adult Cartoon on air.

>The Hapes Cluster

Would you mind enlightening me?

>I think Dathomir still does

It was in The Clone Wars, so yes.

>just binged GoT for the first time
>that scene

brutal yo

>I've yet to read the Ninth Assassin yet, but I'd imagine it's following the same principle.

It does, but has the weakest story. Cry of Shadows made up for it.

He's memeing my man.

Fuck. I made this while half-asleep from my phone the other night. I'll work on a higher-res version

Porn when?

That's really the best answer. Lucas never really considered the EU as being canonical but was content to let it fill in gaps he wasn't (yet) interested in filling with his own stories. That hardly means he didn't see certain merits or mind using certain elements here and there, but he was never going to let the EU stand in the way of telling the story the way he wanted to. He was a kind but stern father of Star Wars. Capable of patting his children on the head and showing them favor, but they still damn well did what he told them to.

>Ezra's not here anymore
>My name is. . .EDGE-RA!!

New lightsaber is green and he's using a more aggressive style, looks Ataru-ish.
Now uses a lethal blaster, not a stun one.
I think that holocron is crawling in his skin.

From Lost Command

He's definitely more kill-happy than before, but no more than the rest of the crew. From the clip they showed, Ezra doesn't actually seem that much edgier than before, just a little more grown up.

For some reason Vader is giving off some major Luke Cage vibes.

They way Ezra combines his flips and blaster shots with his lightsaber reminds me of Vaapad combined with Makashi.

Much different from the Shii-Cho Ezra used in S1.

Still, shameful display on his part, giving in to anger and letting it dictate his actions. If only his master could see him now.

Do you guys think Kanan will look different?

CARLOS I SWEAR TO GOD

I don't think Kanan will look at anything ever again user.

...

in the same clip OP's webm is from, a pig character runs in front of the crew and gets shot by a walker. Only to comically fly away without actually dying like you expect.

It's still disney

>Ezra cuts off all his hair
>Kanan's grown his out to look like Qui-Gonn's

I'd be okay with it.

Going by Hondo's remark, it sounds like he didn't survive

Needs the webm for maximum imagery.

Dead Ugnaughts make Jawas laugh.

Hair as long as Qui-Gon's may be tricky for them. As it is, they rarely do any loose clothing.

They can use Ezra's hair budget for it now.

Something about fifth brother laid up in the background really kills my sides.

>Is that really Ezra??
>Most of the time.

Cryptic.

Ezra is gonna kill them all isn't he?

Now I want to see this show

I'm still under the impression that Ezra Bridger is a young Snoke. Its a strange and dumb theory, but it feels right.

>eye sockets and the brigde of his nose are literally melted.

being kanan is suffering

Where is this footage coming from?

The Star Wars Show.

youtu.be/Qe3LSQiMJUk?t=3m39s

Rise of Vader made him seem just as capable.

Ezra is going to kill a defenseless Inquisitor or Thrawn this season. Calling it.

I hate that my answer is yes.

Will Sabine view him as a man now rather than a boy?

I saw this webm on /tg/, and the quality was just as shitty as this one, so I made a new one that wasn't as shitty.

For the next hour or two I'll make some SW webms for you guys, just link me the video and the time signature.

>Thrawn
Keep dreaming.

kinda wish anakin had this look

whoops

Not really, or how I saw the scene. The way Sabine said it suggested to me that he's not some intense 100% badass all the time. He has his moments of hyper competence and combat kickassedness BUT the old goofy Ezra prone to butt monkey antics still exists.

Much better connected and more coherent. You can tell authors are working together to create singular content but staying within their own self-contained universes. For example, there are examples of Legends writers killing off major characters without blinking or character paradoxes.

Well he did like that one he found on Malachor.

>Luke burns Vader's armor on Endor to symbolize the true destruction of the Emperor's Apprentice
>actually kept Anakin's body and buried it on Tatooine so, "You're finally home, dad."

Ever since then Anakin's ghost stopped talking to him beyond occasionally showing up to scream, "FUCKING SAAAAND! YOU SONNOVABITCH!"

Well those stormtroopers were still moving after shot.

And the people in Tarkintown were 'detained'.

>For example, there are examples of Legends writers killing off major characters without blinking or character paradoxes.
Yeah, there's some weird cases where a character dies in one place but is alive in another. The go-to solution to that was usually "well that was a clone." At one point there were two separate Greedos. A clone (as in Jango clone) named Spar ended up becoming a living retcon, all to explain a variety of inconsistencies in Boba Fett's history- now a significant number of his appearances weren't actually Boba, they were Spar pretending to be Boba.

My absolute favorite though is Dooku's Force doppelganger, an explanation made to a fix a problem that didn't even exist. A video game lets you kill Dooku at the end, and rather than just say "well, it's a game, Dooku obviously didn't die there" they instead decide went with "dark side duplicate", which raises a shitload more questions and creates an even bigger conundrum than just saying "hey that didn't really happen."

>Well those stormtroopers were still moving after shot.
Yeah, that's not a great example. The one where Sabine shoots one in the head point blank is a better one.

Ah much better.

...

>yfw Sabine now has a sidecut.

someone edit in the sheev spin sound effect

I wish they would give her normal black hair

>Well those stormtroopers were still moving after shot.

Which ones? The ones outside of the tower weren't moving.

If you mean the ones inside, when they're squirming its them dying, blasters dont always instakill.


>And the people in Tarkintown were 'detained'.
And likely sent to work in mines, what's your point?

Voltron is now.
Back to the Future III is next.
Whatever is later.
Get in.

>>And the people in Tarkintown were 'detained'.
>And likely sent to work in mines, what's your point?

This non-kids show tries to unnecessarily soften the blow of people getting shot and napalming entire towns.

Oh I'm sure he just had a headache. Just like the ones Kanan was hurling over the balcony over hundreds of feet of empty space when he was trying to save Luminara.

>young snoke
>ezra wasn't an active force wielder during the clone wars
shit theories OUT
