FUCKING
DINER
A
I actually do remember complaints about the diner scene way back when.
I hated a LOT of shit about the prequels, but I never understood the diner complaint. I actually liked it.
durr hurr, the creator of a fictional sci-fantasy universe puts shit in that universe that he likes.
you don't complain about podracing when that is literally the drag racing from his youth.
>Cantina is ok
>Diner is not
People complain about podracing all the time
Of all the complaints about the prequels, I never understood the gripes about a 50s diner. This is where you draw the line?
i like diners
To be honest, I'm fine with that. Just as I'm fine with the the Cantina or, on that matter, the casino in Last Jedi.
>commies giving into the worst parts of capitalism
what did they mean by this?
i really like this image
I think a lot of the complaints come from the fact that for some reason a fat fry cook in a diner has secret information even the Jedi don't
No answers about Dex or his background are ever provided, he's pure plot device. Prequel movie about Dex when?
People tend to half-ass their beliefs, no matter what system you talk, political or religious or otherwise.
To me, the implication was that Dex had a dark, probably illegal past as a black market dealer.
It always made Obi Wan seem more badass that he has a secret connection for intel. A good counterbalance to his role as the "strict mentor" for Anakin.
The man with a love of the 60s put a Diner in his movie. Whodathunk?
right but you can't deny he's kind of a chekovs gun
If the cantina looked like the Copacabana people would have a problem with it
what did george lucas mean by this?
50s
Me too, it was a good reminder of how the prequels had a genuine, dynamic world that felt like it was active even when the protagonists weren't around. The sequel trilogy never really captured that.
its gonna be great
>A fucking diner
>In a Star Wars film
>Still progresses the plot
>Still less nonsensical and boring than a casino scene in a Star Wars film
>And doesn't take half and hour for absolutely nought gain
>has secret information even the Jedi don't
he knew about kamino from his prospecting days. kamino and information relating to it was deleted from the jedi archives by dooku. did you even watch the movie?
That place looked comfy AF desu.
what a waste of good trips.
so, artistic licence should be forbidden? are you a liberal by any chance?
uhm Dex's diner is problematic because it's designed after the 50's
you know what else was popular in the 50's?
bigotry
Dex as a character is a celebration of hollywoods racist, exclusive past. You can even hear it in the names of the food sold there: "Jawa Juice". What kind of slur is that? Just because there's a stereotype that Jawa's like grape flavored kool-aid, suddenly it's "jawa juice".
>a casino with slot machines and a bar with a jazz band is ok
>a space diner is not
The absolute state of Soygoyboytoys.
execute order 66
CANTINAS, NARSHADAA
Those two guys are just internalizing their disgust
but by portraying Dex (an Alien Of Color) as the OWNER of a diner, they empower People Of Color everywhere.
It gives People Of Color agency by averting the gaze of white cis male supremacy.
Ewan looks so happy.
It's hilarious to think that Rian made an entire subplot that takes place on a casino planet full of evil people, races, and flying cars boring. There's nothing in there that shouldn't be at least a bit exciting and yet the man pulled it off and made it dull.
no because Dex as the Wise benefactor alien of color is simply fulfilling another stereotype, that of the magic negro there to empower the white lead with his homesy wisdom and mysterious knowledge
Ewan is so based.
I'm so glad his character has already completed his arc, so there is no possible way of ruining him like TLJ did to Luke.
Even if they shit all over him in the Kenobi spinoff, his legacy is in tact.
So what? People and aliens can EAT, you know? Not only drink in bars full of thugs or fight on white planets against camel-robots.
Why does Dexter's Diner get so much hate, while the Sports Bar from the "deathsticks" scene (featuring some sort of robot football) earlier in the film isn't discussed at all?
Ewan would never sell out to disney
Yeah surprise ! OMGOMGOMG PEOPLE EAT AND DRINK IN SW ? WUT DAS IT MEANZ ? DO THEY POOP TOO ?! HOW CAN YOU DO THAT TO ME GORGES !? HOW !!!!!?
Seriously, there are a lot of things you can complain about in ep2, but oki going to ask help from his old friend is rather ok.
And yes, there is no cantina or hutt palace with rancors in the upper class regions of coruscant. Its not a backwater hellhole ruled by alien crime syndicate.
>there is no possible way of ruining him like TLJ did to Luke
Wait until force ghost Obi comes back in IX.
That's the film's second biggest sin after shitting on the mythos and Luke, it's just not entertaining. I'll forgive enormous flaws in films if I'm actually enjoying myself. If I'm bored, not a chance. It just gives you time to actually consider how shit everything is as you watching. If I still wore a watch I would have been checking it.
hey where did you get this photograph of me, my ex-wife, and my wife's daugther?
tfw this wouldve been a great place in Star Wars 1313
I don't know about that, he's already worth $35 million and Disney could offer to double his entire net worth in just 3 films. A $10 million offer right off the bat with the a contract offering potentially two more films would be tough to decline.
...
He’s a krogan
wtf are they eating space dogs?
maybe dex has ties to the shadow broker
That’s spam
What does Kamino have to do with prospecting? Why would a prospector know anything about poison darts manufactured by said planet?
VISIT A DINER WILL YA
>tfw no one is willing to overhaul the sex scenes
Sure it isn't worth the time or effort, but still.
I want a TV show about students from Imperial/Republic Academy on Carida or Corellia. With dinners, rodian roommate, bothan love-interest with perfect grades, part-time job in some freighter shipyards.
So much potential in Star Wars, but all we get is freedom-fighting crap.
...
I’m really surprised they haven’t whored out the IP like they did with Marvel. I expected way more video games and tv shows by now.
implying this doesn't solidify lucas' mastership in cgi crap
No matter how many times I see a pair of breasts or cleavage they never cease to catch my eye. It really is kind of amazing how distracting they are.
>I’m really surprised they haven’t whored out the IP like they did with Marvel
Battlefront 2 Backlask
YO WAN SUM JARMA JUICE?
1. EA owns the rights to Star Wars games. They're the only ones who can make them.
2. Disney's new stance is that everything is canon. Therefore, they have to be very careful.
That's undoubtedly coming obviously, Battlefront 2 was a huge success financially despite what le reddit warriors want people to think. I just hope they do some decent Star Wars RPG at some point, they actually had one in development and then ceased it. I think it was being developed by Visceral games.
You just know.
she was my first fap.
Her full-page photo in that DK Star Wars Visual Encyclopedia
Got a source on that?
Hermione Bagwa might lead you to it.
Found it, thanks.
...
What?
First of all, that would be Chekov's Gunman, since we're talking about a character and not an object.
Second, he's not a chevov's anything because he's there to provide info to advance the plot. He doesn't come back later in the movie to affect the plot in a significant way like a Chekov's gunman would, we actually never see him again.
user, what the fuck, think before you post.
I wish people stopped calling the disney trilogy "sequel trilogy".
>everything is canon
Just make it smaller scale that doesn’t effect the larger universe. People love the setting, just set stories in it.
>when lucas shoops out your cosplay out of existence
Nice trips, but that doesn't negate the fact that this film, the worst of the prequels, is still considerably better than TFA or TLJ
Oh look, it's SuperShadow with the helmet right behind Ewan.
kek
They'll probably give it to fucking Bioware who can't help but make your character the saviour of every single thing in the galaxy.
...
>finds weird poison dart thing
>"good thing I happen to know a guy who's an expert on weird poison dart things!"
is this star wars or storage wars?
she's in this wierd space between uggo and hot
Like the kind of chick you'd rail in the back alley on her lunch break and she'd tell you to be careful not to get anything in her hair
I avoided battlefront 2 because battlefront 1 was boring, repetetive shite. What was reddit whining about?
...
Dressing like a slut can make uglier women much more fuckable, obviously. Your comparison is accurate.
Prospect is his codeword for hunting the poontang.. he was fucking those lo bff necked alien sluts bro
Dexters a fucking pimp
He fucks everything.. including the food he cooks, that's why Obi Wan gets a soda.. he's not a fan of jizz wailers
Still better than finding professional slicer LOCKED IN YOUR FUCKING CELL
I like that they did a diner and not a cantina. I'm glad they tried something different.
Funny, coz her designer (Mouse) was in the same scene.
Every scene in the prequels with Obi-Wan and/or Qui-Gon was kino and fuck any bandwagoning reddit soy boy who disagrees with me
Ewan Macgregor spin off when?
I mean, I can suspend my disbelief that a criminal in locked in a cell with them.
Maybe he didnt think he would actually be able to escape the planet until he realized there were rebels with them, but that seems odd because he was able to steal that ship so easily.
It doesnt make sense that he would wait around in jail instead of breaking out like he did.
Also why was he referred to as a "Codebreaker" instead of a slicer as its known all throughout the rest of star wars lore.
...
Normies wouldn't know what a Slicer is and it'd be hard to package it on a toy
Code breaker doesn’t even make sense. I guess it’s supposed to mean hacker without actually saying hacker.
Id take hacker over codebreaker any day of the week. Codebreaker sounds like some sort of puzzle master.

Microtransanctions and typical nu vg assholery.
I have no idea what was the problem with this, but then again, I'm not American. Did it look too stereotypical or something?
Deathsticks scene is terrible, it's like straight from second part of mib.
This. Its like they are after Da Vinci code, not a casual infiltration mission.
LE ONE HUNDRED PERCENT BETTER THAN ANYTHING IN LE NU STAR DISNEY WARS XD!!!
I think they were mad since it wasn't foreign and alien like the sandnigger bar in the og trilogy
It's because the WW2 style in Rogue One was really popular, so they're trying to do it in the main series.
Are you okay mouse?
They were going on about the card progression system. You can equip your character with three cards, each card is a power up that does something like improve recharge times on your shotgun etc. Each card has four levels, e.g. a card that recharges powers quicker at level 1 might make powers recharge 10% faster, whereas at level 4 they recharge 30% faster.
The progression system was dire, and needs to be redesigned completely but I think DICE have probably had enough of Battlefront 2 already. The game lacks any and all soul, I played it during the trial period.
Reddit whined about this, which is fair enough - they just got a little ahead of themselves thinking they actually had any impact on the sales of the game and/or EA's stock prices.
