>How Season 3 of Rebels would have been improved
Hera is raped by Thrawn in his office as a show of power. He's forceful but not necessarily violent and once he is done, he allows her to leave.
This abuse breaks Hera down emotionally and she spends the next couple of episodes learning to cope and continue her life.
Just as she thinks she's gotten over it, she is taken by Maul. He rapes her brutally, marking her body and beating her. She is left by him, exposed, savaged and alone in the wilderness only for her to be rescued by the Ghost Crew, not being able to deal with her torment internally this time.

Now you.

According to Pablo Hidalgo's Star Wars Propaganda art book, Sabine Wren canonically works for Mon Mothma to produce propaganda for the New Republic after ROTJ, so you can take her off your death predictions.

THOUGHTS?

pryce is a shitty generic imperial grunt villain and a terrible final boss for rebels

You're a faggot and as bad as RLM

Death predictions, you say?

We knew she was doing that before TFA came out cause it was in the Aftermath book. I'm betting Kanan's the only one who'll die.

>Ezra that low

He's a kid. He'll be fine.

it's the easiest twist to guess

>Voting Chopper and Hera
Unless the season goes to Rogue One or beyond, they are guaranteed survivors
>Voting Sabine
Only way is if there's post-ROTJ scenes

Oh, I didn't remember that because I never read that book :^)

>Zeb & Kallus tied on the same number of votes
Perfect

He's a teenager. Those have much higher chances of dying.

ezra is del toro hence why he's the only TLJ character with a secret codename

He's also the protagonist meant for the average kid to identify with. They aren't gonna waste the Luke analogue. Kanan maybe, but not Ezra.

no this is best boy

The trailer from Celebration had no indication she's the final villain. Nearly all of her villainy comes from the Thrawn book, so I don't see how she'll be the last one fighting the remnants of Phoenix Squadron. She'll totally be executed by Ezra after Kanan dies, though. Ultimate consequences for fucking over her homeworld just to be a crappy politician.

If the Ghost and friends are super fucked up after Atollon, how can they mount an assault on Lothal that ends up causing massive damage shown in the trailer?

I'd love it if everything involving Hondo and Ezra's relationship accumulates to Ezra owning a smarmy casino.

She's the "final boss" of Rebels because it's the final season and they most likely aren't going to be killing Thrawn. They need someone for the heroes to defeat and that someone is the corrupt petty gold digger who ruined Ezra's home planet to her own self-emolument.

I think that massive damage from the trailer is actually ecological devastation, or the Imperial Navy deciding to range its guns on a non-compliant population

They're strip mining the planet. They've been setting that up for a while now in s1 and 2 and a bit in 3, and now that Pryce's backstory as a corporate executive of a mining firm is revealed in Thrawn, and she's experienced some minor failures handling the Rebels, she's probably ramping up industrial development to gain favor with the Emperor with the kyber crystals and doonium he needs to complete the death star. Lothal is not being decimated, it is being polluted; fracking on a planetary scale.

Would be better if it wasn't just a fucking iguana on his shoulder.

I thought that was a hovertank for the longest time.

I also still think the placement of the guns is retarded, even for a tankette thing.

Fuck yeah, I love cross sections. Always turns my dick to durasteel.

>8 people voted for Chopper

Remember how somebody suggested Disney is trying to market to little girls now and everybody flipped out and called the user retard for making excellent points? Heh, let's do that again. It's fun seeing such thin skinned losers trying to plug their ears and pretend their hobby isn't becoming more shitty.

I kind of like the iguana, it's cute

but I understand what you mean, a furry antiforce lizard would also be cute

I have a question. The Clone Wars, season 4, the arc where Obi-Wan goes undercover as a bounty hunter. It's a damn good story, but some things about it really bother me. Namely all the cool tech that doesn't really fit into the world of Star Wars, in my opinion.

Okay, I can forgive the Box - it's completely believable it exists, just not so much the fact that a bunch of outlaws would create and use something as fancy-looking as that, even with Dooku's backing.

But they completely change Obi-Wan's face and bone structure in like a few seconds. Wut. Since when does GFFA has such technology? Why don't we see it being used more often then? Why don't Vader/Snoke/any character with a scar or a deformation use it to fix themselves? Then there are the disguise holograms - non-transparent, realistic enough to fool people, and can even disguise bigger objects as smaller ones (e.g. it hid Embo's shield/hat). What is this, Doctor Who? How do they work, and again, why don't we see other people using them all the time?

Especially for something that's consistently billed as a tank. If they said it was a transport with some guns attached, maybe made by the same guys behind the AT-AT it would make sense, as the idea would be the guns are more for intimidation and they cut corners on the contract by using the same guns and mountings as they do on AT-AT's
As stands, that feels more like a really dumb version of a StuG

because they needed technology to justify sex change fap fiction without involving the insane surgical mutilation of modern "science"

>Why don't Vader/Snoke/any character with a scar or a deformation use it to fix themselves
Vader might have too extreme of an injury, Snoke is a wild card since we have no idea.

After this stupid ass new trilogy ends and all the Mary Sues get their movies what'll happen with the franchise? Disney certainly won't let it rest. That's for sure. Personally I hope we get more KotoR related content.

>dumb version of a stug
Like I said it's basically a tankette, an armoured vehicle used to ferry shit around.

But yeah that sounds about right for the Empire. But at least it's another tank alongside the AAT.

Several things:
1. Star Wars tactics are not real world tactics
2. in universe its stated that treaded vehicles can turn on a dime and hover vehicles cannot
3. ground contact is necessary for physically passing through a shield barrier

Tonight, I will remind them.

Didn't they talk about 10 through 12 after 9 when they first stole it from George?

Scoot over misogynists. You're not the target audience anymore ;)

They'll keep expanding the universe with spin-off movies, it will be much like MCU.
Personally I'm hoping for a Darth Plageus movie, also I want there to be live-action TV shows in SW, not just cartoons.

Really? Well shit. I'd much rather get some KotoR content than more forced sequels.

>tonight
SO THE FALSE FLAG SHITPOSTERS WERE EUROPOORS ALL ALONG
>Expanded Universe
>EU
>European Union
>Europe
>EUrotrash
IT ALL MAKES SENSE

It'll continue to be milked until the franchise becomes unprofitable (read: never). Also, enjoy having your KOTOR filled with microtransactions and lackluster gameplay filled with genderfluid characters whose only purpose storywise is to marry and reproduce with other genderfluids.

Also, the Jedi are Mandalorian in origin, beginning with the Fett bloodline.

>Tonight
It's barely noon

I don't actually hate the idea, but dear god the artwork is atrocious.

Got a problem with women in your hobby? *giggles* well too bad you insecure man-children! We're here to stay!

Remember anons, Tarkin WILL not rise to the bait.

see EUtists are EUropeans

Time to call in the ISB?

What if the bait is below him?

Pretty sure he was just quoting something.

>males will see Star Wars anyway
>why don't we cater to girls so they buy the tickets for the movie plus some merchandise
A futile effort, but oh well. I like women too

Really, what is the purpose of this?
They don't try to market Disney Princesses to boys, so why are they trying to market an action fantasy pew pew series to little girls?

You're trying too hard.

except the meme quote is "today I will remind them"
meaning the poster changed it to "tonight" because its nighttime in the Caliphate of Europe

Don't fight it, boys. Even Chewie has joined us~ ;) Can't wait till we turn Han Solo, Luke, and Vader into pretty dolls too~

I don't see what's wrong with giving women and young girls an intro in the scifi genre

genuinely
and yes I know it's bait

Sounds like a Simpsons gag.

>Diz-nee Company: Sorry, but there's profit to be had

To make more money? Not sure why people are having a hard time wondering why a company is rolling out a new toy line.

They already make an obscene amount of money though.
And, again, if it was about money, they would try to market girl shit to boys.

>he thinks a company will ever decide "yeah we have enough money no need for more"

Disney wants their version of DC Superhero Girls but didn't want to use Marvel gals because it would have been too obvious

>And, again, if it was about money, they would try to market girl shit to boys.

I dunno. I don't see much of a market of selling boys a Prince Phillip action figure.

A princess line of blow-up dolls, on the other hand...

>Luke
I'm in. Where can I buy them.

There've been a few times when boy stuff was successfully marketed to girls. It's rare but it's happened. There's basically no instances of girl stuff being successfully marketed to boys.

More people, more money, more Star Wars for me
I'm in the same boat mate, you'd think having more people to talk too about your interest would be a good thing. And there's not a lot else more fun than watching other people get interested in stuff you already like

Usually, stuff for boys can be made more flexible to appeal to boys and girls more easily than stuff for girls.

They DO try to market the princess stories to boys, not the princesses though. Flynn rider, beast, Aladdin, the dwarfs, mushu, and so on and so on.

We could start talking about Boba Fett again to curb this horrible bait?

Because "action fantasy pew pew series" is more unisex than "Disney Princesses". You'll find more girls enjoying the former alongside boys than boys enjoying the latter alongside girls.

People need to understand that there are things that appeal mostly to men and things that appeal mostly to women. Nobody tries to get men to see soap operas and you shouldn't try so hard to make women like Star Wars. Unless it's all about getting them diversity points and turning SW into virtue signalling

You can buy them at any Disney store. They won't take money though. You're gonna have to cut off your balls as payment you fucking loser.

If they felt it would work they'd do it. Keep in mind this isn't even the first time they've tried marketing Star Wars to girls.

bingo
Pretending there isn't ideological reason in this current climate is to be willfully ignorant.

poor padme

>The great girls pack

>The shit girls pack

That's just cutting the line only to put an equally rotten worm on the hook though, considering the discussion in the last thread

This. There's a reason why the girl toyline are obviously dolls. Disney focus tested that shit and found girls liked dolls more than action figures so that's what they made them into. In order to market to girls the Star Wars franchise will feel much different than what it used to be.

yoooo thats kinda hot

As a woman I just want more tarkin

He was my awakening and I can't seem to ever forget it.

London?

TATTOOINE

This may be true, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't give people an avenue to realize their interests. Yes, men predominately like Star Wars, but giving women an easily accessible introduction to the series seems completely reasonable, especially from a business perspective and world building benefits from a variety of points of view.

If I can get more Star Wars content, I'm completely happy. Also, as a woman this stuff looks kind of cute and I like it.

The mad man actually did it.

Its not about "making" people like Star Wars, its opening that door and trying to break the perception that Star Wars is a male dominated franchise
They're only pushing this so hard because its a new line, and any new product is going to get a big push in advertising to make sure it gets off the ground

I have a question. Why did Lucas think it was a good idea to flip flop on Yoda being a wise pacifist guru and turn him into a yelling flipping ninja?

Pls be in Corellia

>tfw you'll never exist in the Star Wars universe beyond your own dreams

>Yoda being a wise pacifist guru
Worst meme.

Him and Obi were banking on Luke killing his own Dad.
>never for attack
my ass.

>wise pacifist

Stop posting this, we know already you degenerate. Every fucking thread.

>As a woman this stuff looks fine to me
You're just proving our point.

Because Yoda was only a pacifist guru after the fall of the Jedi. Him flipping around like a tiny ninja was a mistake which all Jedi were also making, they were never supposed to be soldiers

character development

woman have such poor taste

Also, some Disney Princesses do get popular among the male audience too

>stop liking the things that I don't like

I think the idea was to either imply that Yoda mellowed significantly after the wars as he realized how badly the Jedi had dropped the ball, or Lucas was just going for the classic "little bald wrinkly smiling master is actually a complete bad ass" thing from martial arts movies

very true but for very different reasons
