Geez I like Giacchino more than Desplat but talk about a last minute replacement. This films production feels a bit all over the place even if it turns out to be okay :s
I'm sorry user Jabba already fed her to the rancor

>Casuals say Star Wars is poorly written, even poorly acted That may be so, but the pottery damn well makes up for it

Jayden Sanchez
I liked Giacchino more than Desplat too, but holy shit that it's a late change.
Scoring a film in 90 days is a fucking nightmare. That's twice as true if it's Star Wars.
Sure, Disney/Lucasfilm may have assuaged some of the rumors around Rogue One a few months ago, but the production seems like a damn mess. The first Anthology Film and TFA having a shitty soundtrack is disappointing.
Austin Morales

Brody Ortiz
>this isn't canon
Juan Powell
Irs been done before, sometimes in even less time.
Not sure if Giacchino is up to the task though.
Evan Howard
Damn Guiness' acting was great, especially considering how little of the story he then knew.
Joshua Morgan
Oh I know it's been done in way less time, that's the nature of the industry. That doesn't make it right for composers.
They're both capable, but I wouldn't have picked Giacchino or Despat, honestly. I Giacchino can do it, he's practically lived in half of Disney's house anyway with Pixar, and his Trek scores nice, (but extraordinarily repetitive).
To me, those two are just the choices you pick if you want to "get the job done".
Elijah Rodriguez
>To me, those two are just the choices you pick if you want to "get the job done".
But Edwards clearly brought in Desplat himself, they worked on Godzilla together.
Anthony Turner
Giacchino is John Williams replacement, it's been like that for a while.
Elijah Cruz
I'm not saying any of these men are bad composers, just that they wouldn't be my first choice.
That's always been true. He's JW lite, but we'll see what he will bring to Rogue One.
Desplat is inhuman and scores multiple films every year. I personally am not interested in any of his previous work that I've listened to.
Jason Turner
Yeah, we're probably not going to get the full story for a while but even if it's not "40% OF THE MOVIE IS BEING REDONE" or "MY DAD WORKS AT DISNEY STORE HE SAID THEY'RE MAKING IT LIGHTER AND FUNNIER " it still sounds like there's a lot of confusion and second-guessing going on here.
Ian Kelly
What would you want to see in the next cgi cartoon series when Rebels ends? I really want to see the era right after Return of the Jedi. Rebels probably won't end until after the sequel trilogy does so they won't have to keep any secrets about that era. Mark Hamill could even voice a character.
Gabriel Perez
I want to add that Giacchino is a safe choice. I may not like Desplat's work, but I do think he's the better choice, even if I prefer a different sound. I may like someone a bit better based on their previous work, but that doesn't mean they're the right choice.
Again this is indicative of the production woes this project has.
Adam Allen
Luke's Jedi academy. Culminating in the Ren Knights going 66.
Blake Myers
I could go for more post-RotJ content myself. Something to wash away some of the aftermath aftertaste, even if all we end up getting out of it is an animated Uprising
Hudson Evans
Three options. 1. Luke's adventures right after ROTJ leading up to TFA 2. Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan's journeys together with a focus on Qui-Gon and his views and beliefs 3. Old Republic Era. Maybe do Revan or the Mandalorian Wars since we know Filoni is a huge fan of KOTOR.
I'm really hopefully next Rebels season will explore more of the Force but man I really want to see my Jedi vs. Sith stuff. I love that shit.
Cooper Russell
>Before the dark times >Before the Empire >That distant look It's these little things man

If you could change one thing in the canon, what would you change, /swco/?
Aaron Johnson

Cameron Perez
Is that Incase? That looks like Incase? God damn it, It's Incase, ain't it?
Grayson Turner
The Knights of Ren name. I fucking hate it. I don't know why, I guess because I feel like it's too long? If this is going to be the new dark side organization going forward I wish they had stuck with a four letter name like Jedi and Sith.
Also the Darth title. I fucking love it. I want a Darth Insanius. Sue me.
Jace Taylor
Luke's new jedi order survives and is a growing force for good in the galaxy.
Nicholas Clark
-TFA +George's original treatment
But actually Morriban back to Korriban
Benjamin Gutierrez
Gray Jedi can never exist There is no neutral side to the force, for it is neutral simply by being
Justin Ortiz
Gray Jedi don't exist though.
Kayden Thomas
Make Boba an actual threat.
Since certain people clearly insist that mustn't happen, I guess I'll settle for recanonizing Crix Nadeen's defection.
Ethan Russell
Because its so obviously meant to be "Not-Sith."
They shouldn't have even given Kylo Ren and Snoke a bunch of fuckbois that we never see.
Hudson Thomas
I am very interested in seeing what Bendu is going to be all about. I am fairly confident he will be quite different from what people call Gray Jedi.
Lincoln Roberts
>No big ass lightsaber fights Fucking Abrams. Also we're probably never going to get any good big ass space fights with tons of capital ships since Abrams blew up the fucking fleet and we're back to ten X-wings vs fucking everything.
Ethan Myers
I really hope they're not ALL dead. It would make for a neat twist. But it's probably not happening. Well, Morriban and Korriban are both technically canon names. They just changed over time.
Kayden Kelly
Gray Jedi aren't a thing in canon
Luis Gutierrez
Gray Jedi don't exist. This is why Ahsoka isn't a Jedi.
Jedi represent the neutrality of the Force. They are the balance (or at lest, they believe they are. The Bendu is supposedly the real balance). If you don't follow the strict code of the Jedi, then you aren't one.
Justin Thomas
Haven't you heard, user? Space battles are boring.
Nolan Edwards
Make the New Republic actually competent in ruling and defending their territory.
Jaxson Hill
The name is Moraband.
Levi Walker
I thought Gray Jedi were just those who didn't follow the current Jedi establishment, but were still pretty much part of the light?
William Reed
After reading Bloodline, I don't think the New Republic ever had a chance. They repeated all the mistakes that led to the Empire.
Andrew Taylor
I'm hyped. I like that they're bringing in an outsider's perspective on the light and dark sides. Reminds me of Mortis. I'm so ficking mad. Yeah the prequels had problems but the space fights were fucking awesome. I want that shit back god damnit. Fuck repeating the small force of good guys with shit ships vs the Empires fuck load of ships plot the OT did.
Asher Evans
FUCK YOU DICE YOU FUCKING PRICKS
YOU TOLD ME SPACE WAS BORING, AND SOLD ME A BATTLEFRONT GAME WITH NO SPACE FOR 60$
AND THEN ANNOUNCE SPACE AS DLC
YOU COMPLETE
AND UTTER
GODDAMN
FUCKING
CUNTS
Michael Walker
I just don't want a new order to rise and fall every other decade like in the EU
Jayden Baker
Yeah. You had Jolee Bindu (I keep thinking Bendu comes from that but I know it comes from Jedi-Bendu) who bitched about the Jedi and their hypocrisy but was still firmly in the light side camp when push came to shove. Grey Jedi are just special snowflakes essentially. One thing I don't like about nuCanon: Mon Momtha is such a fucking retard. She's the one who supported armed insurrection before but as soon as it looks like they're winning she just orders every gun, ship, and soldier retired? That's stupid.
Fucking hippies and their peace bullshit. At least keep the Super Star Destroyer you captured safe.
Owen Miller
I hate how they did everything they could to basically reset the setting to ANH times just because of muh nostalgia.
Part of the reasons why I didn't mind the EU wipe was that glorious feeling of exploring uncharted territories.
Christopher Phillips
>Implying it will fall once Rey's in charge She'll just mind rape anyone with her OP mind tricks. She's already made Leia her new BFFL that way.
Luis Sanders
I mean the easiest and most boring answer is to wipe the PT and start it clean, but meh. I hate those films, but its spilled milk at this point and enough quality works have come out of it that actually just burning it down would take good with the bad.
For something a little more pragmatic, force Abrams to add more context into TFA. That's a movie I pretty much enjoyed every aspect of, Mary Sue and all, except for JJ's complete disinterest in explaining this new universe. I understand why he didn't want Se ante scene, but maybe Kasdan could have sat him down and told him that he should let the fucking pace up for ten goddamned minutes so we could really get a sense for what's going on and why this all matters.
Ethan Cook
>Expecting a good game from EA I don't know what to tell you man. I just really hope that Visceral game takes place on Coruscant. How the fuck has it taken this long to get a game there? TOR is awful, I just want a bounty hunter RPG set in SW.
Hunter Powell
We'll see how things turn out in the next movies, but it's not her fault half of the senators had a boner for the Empire to return.
Kevin Thomas
But what other bullshit scenes will we add to Star Tours to tie in VIII and IX?
Noah Rogers
Kasdan believes in going fast paced so no one pays attention to the background stuff though.
Hunter Ward
>Letting senators who like the Empire serve Those dumbasses deserved to get nuked. I hope the next leader remembers to keep the fucking capital ships. And don't keep all your shit in one place.
Michael Butler
So when did George go from >There is no light and dark, there's just the Force and the dark side is a cancer To >Light and Dark are both equal parts and too much of either is bad As far as I remember that idea was an EU thing. Hell the term "light side" is an EU thing, it didn't exist in the OT, or even the PT if I recall correctly.
I kinda prefer the yin and yang feel to Lucas's original idea.
It's likely they were told before and left. In Bloodlines their intentions aren't clear, they're just called Centrists and wanted a stronger government and military. There's no winning here.
Ryder Gonzalez
They already showed/teased that it's a western on everybody's favorite; Tatooine.
I mean it has potential I guess, but losing that Coruscant-set game is a real loss.
At least Amy Hennig recently expressed the importance of doing something new and original, so unlike DICE, the Visceral game may have some interesting stuff to it.
Matthew Hernandez
I was thinking the majority of those imperial leaning senators had left the Republic and were already with the First Order. So they wouldn't have been on-planet in the first place.
Cameron Young
He didn't?
Colton Anderson
>I kinda prefer the yin and yang feel to Lucas's original idea.
Except the Dark Side isn't shown to have any positive traits or balance to it in any regard in either the OT or the PT. It's show explicitly to be bad thing, something you fall into and can almost never crawl out of.
Trying to add some sort of moral relativism into SW when it comes to the Force is terrible, the universe literally has good/bad rules built into it. I know that triggers writers like Chris Avellone, but if you don't like it go write somewhere else instead of forcing Star Wars to become a "gray morality" universe like every other modern fiction franchise.
James Nguyen
You've got it mixed up. The Sith are the cancer, not the dark side
Andrew Phillips
You sure about that? I'm almost positive he did. Well that's how it is now. The dark side is still evil it's just that it's now regarded as a part of the Force rather than a malignant tumor as Lucas originally envisioned. I know that, but I'm almost positive originally it was the dark side as a whole that was a cancer. There was no "light side" it was just The Force and the Dark Side.
Jacob Ross
How do we know it'll be on one planet?
Jayden Barnes
The dark side IS cancer, the Sith are just one kind of tumor.
Juan Thompson
The Force is never REALLY explained in the OT. In one movie it's an intrisinc energy throughout the universe, in the next its really everything and matter is an illusion, and in the final one it's merely a context for the battle of good versus evil.
The recent explanations in Rebels and the end of TCW are more or less always what George wanted, but had people around him going "No George, stop, people are stupid and won't understand that."
Nolan Carter
Oh we don't at all, it could definitely go off world.
But both pieces of concept art, and the footage they chose to show for the reveal, were all on Tatooine, so I would personally not expect anything else for the time being.
If it turns out there are more planets, it will be a pleasant surprise!
Alexander Miller
Fuck. Why? Fucking why? It's a goddamn desert planet, what the fuck are we going to be doing there? Both Luke and Anakin knew that place was boring as shit what's everyone's obsession with that place? Fucking hell man at least let us go to Aldaraan before it becomes space dust. I really hope this is the case. I want to go to Coruscant and Nar Shadaa and all the fucking COOL places why do game devs have such shit taste.
Robert Anderson
>Luke, Anakin, and Rey all want to get off their desert planets because they're fucking boring and want to go find adventure >Hey let's make a game and set on Tatooine There is no justice in this world. Truly this is the darkest timeline.
Jordan Brown
No its not. The Dark Side is natural.
Bentley Scott
Luke's adventures between ROTJ and TFA. It can be an anthology format like TCW and be Filon's coup de grace.
Jason Rogers
I HATE SAND
Bentley Rogers
Rebels is probably going to last past ROTJ, so they'll probably start animating Luke's adventures after ROTJ
Isaiah Gonzalez
It's a change that would in turn require a lot of alterations but honestly I'd like to see the empire put up more of fight after Endor.
I get that the loss of both the emperor and the second death star delivered massive blows to the empire, but even in the face of those losses and the other disadvantages they catalyzed it just feels wrong for the empire to fold as quickly as they do given the manpower and materiel advantages they should possess.
Alexander Brooks
No see that's what changed. Originally I think that's how Lucas saw it, but eventually Lucas kind of either embraced this balance view or merely clarified that this was how he always saw it depending on what you believe. I don't know man, I think the old man just changed his mind. It's not like he was averse to doing that. He was opposed to any sequels at all but he obviously changed his mind about that.
Brayden Bennett
I like sand, sand is squishy
Liam Morales
...
Gabriel Lewis
I'm not saying he didn't change his mind, it's just that the Yin-Yang thing has always been only one inspiration for the Force.
Ultimately, the Force is always going to be somewhat explainable, because it's a mystical "force" of life in a fictional universe.
Nope, Dark Side is part of life too, so it's natural. The Sith and other likeminded dark siders are the cancer.
Luke Sullivan
>The Sith and other likeminded dark siders are the cancer So are there any non-cancerous dark side users? I'm guessing that the reason Sith are so cancerous is because they're all about dominating the Force. Wonder if that's Snoke's gig.
Luis Johnson
The Nightsisters.
Lincoln Robinson
Oh right, duh.
Brandon Taylor
Also, I have to assume the "Nightbrothers" but since they never expand on them, we can't say one way or the other. There are probably also others, waiting to be explored by a good writer.
Daniel Smith
I think it went down so easily because the old EU had that as a central conflict for so long. They didn't want to retell that story again.
William Russell
...
Tyler Nelson
I don't know who that is. I assume they are not a good writer.
Nolan Diaz
I remember in the old EU there was this group of dark-side Sorcerers who acted as protectors of their planet.
Blake Fisher
Why she's the Prophet of the Mangos
Christopher Reed
Traviss.
David Smith
Huh. She looks exactly like the Milfs in gangbang hentai stuff. Makes sense now I guess.
Charles Baker
She IS a good writer. The problem is that she takes things too far.
Anthony Clark
>>She looks exactly like the Milfs in gangbang hentai stuff.
Grayson Cox
From what little I've read and what I've heard, that is precisely what makes her not a good writer, but I've only read her first Republic Commando book.
