Well maybe if she learned to clean up and not be a filthy scavenger she wouldn't have a sand issue The first thing about living in a place with sand is a basic understanding of doors Doors prevent sand from getting in. Doors prevent unwanted things from getting in. You know what's unwanted? Sand. It gets fucking everywhere Second thing about living in a place with sand, a basic understanding of the weather which can transpire in a place with a lot of sand If it's prone to sandstorms or droughts, you build around that. Plug up holes so sand doesn't get in. Your main enemy is not Carl from accounting or your next door neighbour, but sand. Because it's everywhere. How do you combat an enemy that's everywhere You defend yourself. And that is not what Rey is doing
Sure, knowing how to fight with a ken-do stick is since, but it doesn't work against sand Sand is like the force. It binds us. It penetrates us. It's fucking everywhere and gets fucking everywhere. You can't use a stick to fight something that's everywhere. That's not how the force works. You secure yourself. You rid of any sand that gets in and prevent any sand from getting in. You tap your shoes outside so you don't bring sand in. You clean frequently. This is first grade If you don't know how to live with sand then don't go to a place with sand. The raisin Rey was dropped off on Jakku wasn't because Luke didn't know what to do with her, it's because he knows she can't deal with sand. It was a test.A test to see if Rey could handle the sand. But she couldn't handle the sand. That's why her attunement to the force is all willey nilley. She hasn't mastered the sand. The sand all around her. Inside her. The sand that surrounds her
She's not ready. She has no patience.

Seriously. She squats to use the bathroom and it's like an hourglass down there.

The key to Pablo's statement is different demos. Depending on your friend's demographics it's possible his agegroup typically dislikes them, and since you tend to socialize within your demographic at school or work, etc, well there you go. There is a heavy potential for confirmation bias.
Carter Young
Yes user, now with one cute /ss/ waifu, I'd like to give you another
There was news articles about China last year. They only just got a theatrical release of the OT, so for the majority of China, Star Wars was just the Prequels.
The OT was met with lukewarm reception there, partly due to the fact that so much of Star Wars has been ripped off in other movies, that they'd "seen it all before", and partly because it wasn't like the Prequels.
TFA also under-performed in China (well, it did crazy good, but definitely not as much as Disney was hoping), with many people believing that it was because it was so much closer to the OT, and China had zero nostalgic investment for TFA to exploit.
I suspect the stronger Eastern-influence in the Prequels also makes them more favorable to Asians.
Gabriel Allen
We're the same age and went to the same school. So I'd say we're the same demographic. Both of us are 21.
Oh snap, there's more fanart of Naare than tumblr-face Naare now? qt
Sweet, thanks!
I'll see if I can find some of those articles.
Thanks Anons!

They also walked away with the impression that >Democracy is complicated, and easily defeated by a strong central authority figure.
>I don't really have any respect for anyone who thinks those films are good. They’re not. (They’re) a monumental misunderstanding of what the (original) three films are about. It's an exercise in utter infanticide ... (like) George Lucas killing his kid.
Where were you when you lost all your respect for Simon Pegg?
Logan Murphy
I always found this so weird that he made these anti-prequel and anti-prequel-fan rants, but then happily did TFA, but more curiously, TCW. Like, he was fully aware about this being a Prequel Era expansion, from Lucas himself, and he accepted?
Did he have a change of heart, or was he just exaggerating his disapproval for street cred, or what?

Incidentally, internationally people have found it amusing that an American movie is showcasing this big militaristic bully as the villains while America has that exact reputation in some countries.

Jaxson Adams
Pegg managed to save the Nu-trek film series by writing Beyond's script.
I can still respect him, even if our opinions differ.
Beyond was ehh. His creepy love interest and LE BEASTIE BOYS XD didn't help.
Camden Williams
I kinda had the same reaction when I saw it as a kid. I watched Alien, 2001 and Lawrence of Arabia so watching Star Wars wasn't that amazing.
Mason Campbell
I mean, they're not good films, but to call them a misunderstanding is... a misunderstanding of what Star Wars is. But he's not in charge and the story group has respect for Lucas.
Easton Adams

Ethan Morgan

I was here. I've known of his utter hatred for the Prequels for a long time. I still like him as an actor and a filmmaker. But as a Star Wars fan, he's fucking cancer. He helped JJ write TFA for fuck's sake.
At least Serafinowicz actually had a good reason in his resentment for TPM.
William Jones
I wouldn't say I've lost respect for him because I still like a lot of what he's done and I can't blame him for disliking the prequels, but this now 17 year long tantrum over Episode 1 not being like the OT is just embarrassing. The fact that he's been such a huge cheerleader for TFA just makes it worse. It seems like all he really wanted from Star Wars was just the same stuff again.
Michael Peterson

Like, he was fully aware about this being a Prequel Era expansion, from Lucas himself, and he accepted? I think he knew. I haven't heard him discuss TCW at all beyond his role so I have no idea if he thinks TCW is good or if he lumps it in with the prequels. My guess is he probably hasn't even watched it. But it's kind of odd that he was offered the chance to be the official voice of a pretty well-known character in a George Lucas show despite his pretty famous hatred of the prequels and shit-talking of Lucas himself, and thought nothing of it and then went right back to his usual "Lucas killed my childhood!" nonsense.
Camden Martin
I think he's just high on the TFA hype. I think he'd calmed down about it, but then here comes a new Star Wars movie directed by a friend of his and there's a lot of not so subtle marketing about how "this isn't going to be the prequels, this is REAL Star Wars again" and it's just brought that back out again.
Also he did not like his gift. Lucas has a fun sense of humor.

Yeah, really. We basically traded up- he's not only a really good fit for Maul, he's a genuine hardcore Star Wars fan and not just an angry OT purist.
Still not a fan of his Sheev, though.

Nope. We don't know a whole lot about the big ones.

Maybe crystals naturally get their colors the more they grow/older they get? So the small ones Padawans find are just at the brink of being ripe?

rank the following characters/place from most likely to least likely to show up & play a major role (so this isn't counting cameos like yeah, I haven't forgotten the Kenobi message in the pilot episode) in an episode or so of Rebels:
Alderaan Han Solo Jar Jar Binks Luke Skywalker Naboo Obi Wan Kenobi The Death Star
my ranking: The Death Star (It's already under construction at the end of ROTS) Alderaan Jar Jar Binks/Naboo (if one shows up the other is quite likely to show up as well so I tied them) Luke Skywalker (I actually put him at the #2 spot originally but then thought hard and realized that, unlike Leia, it'd be nearly impossible to work him into Rebels in a meaningful way that doesn't conflict with canon of the original Star Wars movie) Han Solo (Ranked low because lol spin off movie) Obi Wan Kenobi (Least likely for obvious reasons)
Nathan Rogers
I know, Rodians are better
Robert Price
OH SHIT. I forgot about Sheev!
Uh... I'd say Emperor Palpatine ranks just between Binks and Skywalker in the 'likely to appear' in a non-cameo sort of sense category.

Lucas "overdid" a lot of things in the prequels.
He was often concerned with making visuals appear busy and energetic, which if often contrasted with the inconsistent performances of the actors and the bad dialog they have to say.
He absolutely put too much effort into the CGI at the expense of other aspects of the prequels.
TPM actually has pretty great CGI, a lot of great little moments, but it also has Jar Jar flopping around and the screenplay is full of bizarre tone changes.
AotC has really rote dialog like this infamous "I hate sand" monologue where Anakin talks about his love of fascism like a high school kid.
And RotS which fairs better than all of them but still has overkill moments like Obi-Wan riding a CGI dinosaur to fight a CGI Grievious and Obi-Wan and Anakin's duel on Mustafar being overly long, overly elaborate, and with lines like "From my point of view the Jedi are evil" and "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" being instantly mocked with scorn.
James Sanders
>Luke Skywalker (I actually put him at the #2 >Obi Wan Kenobi (Least likely for obvious reasons) Shouldn't those obvious reasons apply to both of them?
Parker Butler
They said they wanted Rebels to go on as long as possible so we might see Luke show up when they go past Episode IV.
Gabriel Kelly
I want to see Bail Organa show up more, maybe with Mon Mothma. Honestly I just want to see the disparate rebel cells actually become the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
Jordan James
I want to see more of crazy old man Windu
Dylan Harris
He's in the Underworld screaming at nearby bystanders about the Emperor being a great evil.
Nicholas White
>TPM actually has pretty great CGI That doesn't hold up at all in plenty of scenes.

I've never understood the issue people have.

I'm sorry they couldn't find an actual boga or actual kaleesh cyborg to fill in.
>and Obi-Wan and Anakin's duel on Mustafar being overly long, overly elaborate,
It's no longer than Luke's duel with Vader.
>and with lines like "From my point of view the Jedi are evil"
Not that terrible of a line
>and "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
Not even from the same scene. It's not even super terrible, though i would've just gone with an angered yell instead.
Adam Harris
