first for robot waifus

Second for Thrawn

A NEW HOPE & THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK are much better films than ROTJ and the PT.

4th for this bad motherfucker

Well at least you didn't say they objectively suck.

SHE'S FUCKING SHIT THAT'S WHAT

Do you think his new book will be any good?

Why did they drop the ball so hard on ROTJ? It started off decently, but it took a huge dive when they got to the Moon of Endor.

...

No, they are most definitely not.
Please be more subtle with your Kurtz fellating.

Empire is very poorly paced.

Rebels is beautiful.

That's common knowledge.

No people only talk shit about ROTJ to make the PT seem better.

Hey, /swco/, does anyone have an episode guide for Clone Wars and Rebels?

nope

You now realize that all six movies are roughly equal.

I actually think it'll be better than any of the EU Thrawn books. Don't get me wrong, they're great, but I think this book will benefit from being done with the aid of the Story Group.

>It started off decently, but it took a huge dive when they got to the Moon of Endor.
...And THEN the best space battle and most dramatic lightsaber duel begin. Yeah rrreeaally dropping the ball there.

>I actually think it'll be better than any of the EU Thrawn books.
Heeeeelllllll no.

That was cool and all, but the movie really feels lacking compared to the rest of the trilogy.

Read the OP pasta.

No rec guide for Rebels yet because its still early-ish but just watch it all.

Do you think they removed his shoulder tassels because the Rebels animators couldn't be bothered to add in moving tassels.

There are 7, and no that is not true. PT is inferior to everything.

TCW - bottom link in the OP

Rebels - watch it all, its more of a linear story. Even the non-story episodes later come into play.

Why do you keep posting Dash Rendar and mislabelling your images?

>PT is inferior to everything.
lazy lazy lazy bait
2/10 for making me reply

That doesn't make ROTJ bad. Just like how ROTS not being as bad as TPM and AOTC doesn't necessarily make it good.

Obviously yes. Anything that looks janky in Rebels is because Disney budget.

>Just like how ROTS not being as bad as TPM and AOTC doesn't necessarily make it good.
All three prequels are great films.

I think they removed them to make his outfit line up with the rest of the Imperial outfit aesthetic.

That's the beauty of the PT. No one has to try because they're undeniably bad. Fart scenes are unacceptable. Sorry.

The PT is better than my Star Wars fanficI thought up when I was 6, so it's technically not inferior to everything.

Heeeeellllll yes.

who is, user?

>undeniably bad.
But at least 50 percent of critics gave TPM and AOTC a fresh rating.
over 75 percent gave ROTS a fresh rating.

So, no. They are not 'undeniably' bad.

Jar Jar>Ewoks

No one wore them in the movies.

That's done to break up the blandness of everyone's skintight outfit.
So I guess is right

>Kallus wears his armor all the time.
Why?
Oh right.

youtube.com/watch?v=2CCjf0odzGY

No, the tassels just don't fit with Imperial outfits. That guy is wrong.

I understand TFA is not well liked here and 90% of critics liked that movie. Guess it's indeniably superior. Same can be said for ANH and ESB.

Kylo Ren>>>>>>Every single prequel villain

>kylo ren is better than sheev

Does Sheev count? He's just a character they took from the OT.

>Kylo Ren>>>>>>Every single prequel villain
Hell no.

Grievous is a better subversive character than Kylo.

I enjoyed TFA and didn't like the prequels, but I have to disagree. Sheev was way better than Kylo Ren.

Kallus is an agent looking for rebels. Why not? Jedi always wore fragments of clone armor.

TFA is not well liked here because it's a lobotomy. It had none of the same shortcomings that the PT had but at the price of not having any of its virtues either.

Way better design than Kylo, too.
JJ is so stupid. Evey other concept design for Kylo was better than what he chose.

>50 percent of critics gave TPM and AOTC a fresh rating.

When? When it came out? No one used the word fresh back in 2002, so how could they have given it a fresh rating?

>not having any of its virtues either.
incoming
>Prequels had no virtues

Grievous might as well be a giant lightsaber with legs. He's barely a character. Literally a single step up from Maul and nothing more.

>No one used the word fresh back in 2002
Rotten Tomatoes was around back then, young one.

>Evey other concept design for Kylo was better than what he chose.

Got some examples? Not intending to argue your claim. I'm just genuinely curious.

ANH & TESB both have their fair share of juvenile humor, but from ROTJ and beyond there has been kiddie humor.

And yes, there's a big difference.

Gonna have to disagree. Grievous is just a silly looking halloweem skeleton. Ren actually looks intimidating which fits with how desperate he is to be like grandaddy Vader.

Well except in the movies.

Also, Veers in ESB wears no armor in one scene and then armor in the next. They gave Wilhuff armor and a helmet for just one scene in season one. Would be cool if Kallus had a plain uniform like the rest of the officers.

Maul is amaxing too.

Less is more, and how Lucas portays Maul is spectacular.
>the laser gate come on
>Qui-Gon starts meditating
>Maul paces and hits the wall with his saber

Lucas is master of visual storytelling.

PT didn't have anything at all. Just some ps2 graphics.

>silly
Not even close. You guys ridiculously pathetic in your attempts to normalize the outrageous lies you spew about the PT.

But critics didn't use that lingo back then.

>muh cgi

meme

mirror?

>less is more
That's not always the case and in this case it was not because Maul is ridiculously boring compared to Vader and Ren.

Yep you called it.

Grievous is a waste. His actions are laughably inconsistent. His design is terrible. And he serves no purpose that couldn't have easily have gone to Nute Gunray.

>ridiculously boring
I vehemently disagree.
And I know you don't actually hold that opinion either.
You're only here to shitpost.
Your actually opinions never even come in to play.

But I like cgi. Problem is the PT ONLY offered cgi because that was the only thing worth talking about. I'd rather talk about the damn podrace than characters like Dooku or Windu.

>His design is terrible
see
You really need to at least try to focus on things that SOMEONE SOMEWHERE might be convinced are bad.

When you pack CGI into 90% of your movie in one way or another, it begins to look fake.

The same thing happens with any post filming effects.

The acting is shit.

>because Maul is ridiculously boring compared to Vader and Ren.

Maul's been more entertaining than Kylo ever has. Hell, he gave us one of the best fights seen in Star Wars thus far. All Kylo did was fanboy and fail to deliver an interesting fight scene.

>characters like Dooku or Windu.
...are great characters.

Protip: shit sets, matte lines, and matte paintings look just as fake.

>And I know you don't actually hold that opinion either.
>You're only here to shitpost.
>Your actually opinions never even come in to play.

You actually think we all like the PT, but that we're just trolling? What is your world like? Can I visit?

>Nute Gunray commanding battledroids
>Nute Gunray constantly getting frustrated and hitting his battledroids.
>Nute Gunray in a dozen lightsaber fights with Kenobi.
>Nute Gunray as a metaphorical prototype for Darth Vader
OMG you're right. It's all coming very clear now.

nah

TCW ruined Maul like it ruined Anakin.

Don't respond to shitposters.

>I am the senate

What did he mean by this?

His design is laughable. And what are the mechanics of his suit? How is he coughing? He doesn't have a throat.

And the 4 lightsabers? What, the two Anakin held in AOTC wasn't cool enough?

>His design is laughable.
NOT. EVEN. CLOSE.

I don't understand why you are lying.

Wow. Just wow.

>Maul's been more entertaining than Kylo ever has.
Nah not even close. Amazing how all of Maul's glowstick dances aren't as entertaining as Ren using the Force to stop a laser bolt or to torture someone's mind. Kinda poetic too. The OT was great because of the Force. The PT only offered boring laser sword fights. Now TFA wants to show us the Force again.

>inb4 and another Death Star, kurtzfag

>Protip: shit sets, matte lines, and matte paintings look just as fake.

But they're not in every shot.

In the PT there are CG elements, or elements digitally inserted into just about every scene.

>Amazing how all of Maul's glowstick dances
Reminder every movie in the OT took swordfighting further into ballet territory and that the PT perfected it.

Dancing is what fighting with the force looks like.

The only real purpose of Grievous was a minor villain after Dooku died that the Jedi could go after.

All that other shit is bells and whistles.

Stop taking the bait and post your favorite thing about Star Wars.

For me it's the beautiful and interesting worlds.

Point being?

Special effects are just a tool to tell a story.
As a kid, the PT felt alive to me in a way the OT did not.
George succeeded.

ROTJ had Luke using his saber like a damn baseball bat.

>All that other shit is bells and whistles.
No.
It's called "part of the plot".

>Dancing is what fighting with the force looks like.

Are you fucking serious?

...

...

ROTJ had the exact same fighting style as ROTS.

There's even the same exchange of saber blows between Dooku and Anakin.
With the same camera movement.

>as Ren using the Force to stop a laser bolt or to torture someone's mind.

Those were some of the dumbest parts of the movie. For all the stuff that TFA got wrong, matters concerning the force was what it completely failed to understand.

Completely.

this so much

...

FUCK YOU

How was him having four arms, lightsabers and a cough with no throat essential to the plot.

Nuite Gunray couldn't have been the focus of the Jedi since he was the only CIS leader to have had contact with Sidious before the war?

Nute Gunray couldn't have been hiding out in the Outer-Rim so that Obi-Wan has to leave Coruscant to find him?
