Let's end this discussion once and for all with some generalizations >George Lucas is an ambitious man who pushed computer based SFX to their limit >George was not a director's director or an actor's director. He did not seem to enjoy being on set and directing people. >George's ambition and his reluctance to be on set caused him to often prefer computer based solutions to problems that were once solved by other means >This free use of a new technology gave the Star Wars Prequels, particularly the latter two, a unique look. >Some people like this look, most do not.
There. Are we all happy? Or are we going to star throwing shit again?
Oliver Morgan
they gave him a short story? nioce
Wyatt Martin
"No!"
Jace Reed
He said that the idea of a License Dooku book is floating around but Luceno himself wants to do something post ROTS next. He also said that there's gonna be a Chewbacca tie in and a GOT chick tie in novel to the Han Solo movie. I think he also said there's a prequel novel ala Catalyst to the Han Solo movie. He also said there was gonna be a bounty hunter book by Wendig.
Daniel Wright
>most do not. nah, most Star Wars fans love the aesthetics the prequels gave us.
Kayden Hall
Why do Mandalorians come across as a bunch of donut steel fanfic characters, whenever they appear in Star Wars related stuff? Whenever they're around the story seems to suck their collective dicks unless a Jedi or Sith is around and sometimes even that doesn't prevent it. It's like they're the go to faction for those who think Jedi are too main stream, so the flock to this snow flake warrior race that's just as badass and can beat anything under the sun, but without magic powers.
Cooper Scott
>Brings up shit in a new thread >"Stop shit throwing"
Hmm.

because they're Boba Fetts and Boba Fett sells
Nolan Campbell

Eli Moore
I'm not going to touch that with a 10 foot pole. But... perhaps the company PR person who exists to smooth ruffled feathers isn't the person to wholly trust when it comes to whether people like his product or not. I'm sure Coke says everyone loved New Coke too and that Apple says that everyone loves the removal of the headphone jack.
Levi Morales
Because of their loose ties to Boba Fett, Star Wars's first donut steel fanfic-tier character.
Chase Brown

*autistic screeching*

Caleb Fisher
This Same reason why the Clones were all LITERALLY Boba Fetts. They even wore similar armour
Jaxson Roberts
Oh well I guess that means the Dooku novel is more likely now since there actually was a Del Rey leaker who said Claudia Gray was writing something about Qui-Gon and they also said there would be a Dooku novel along with the other ones.
Grayson Gutierrez

Cameron Clark
Yeah, Pablo is lying, he totally has a secret agenda to try and convince people that the prequels are liked by an entire generation.
He is also conspiring with the Chinese critics who openly praised the Prequels over the OT.
His job as a LSG member totally requires him to use his personal Twitter which mostly consists of drawings of robots, as PR; Even despite him being overly critical of Disney's first movie.

I love George.
Jack Stewart
I'm not saying he's lying, per se, just that he may not be entirely truthful. Just don't forget what his job is. Do you believe Trump's PR guy that says his administration is as popular as ever (*within specific demographics polled at limited polling stations)?
You can not tell the truth while being totally honest. Surely, as a Star Wars fan, you must be aware of this. That was Old Lyin' Ben's schtick in the OT. Never lied but never told the whole truth
Jayden Fisher
Where's the source though?
>badass bounty hunter >still less liked than Boba
Joshua Davis
3>1>2
And that's the same in both trilogies.

>Just don't forget what his job is. >Do you believe Trump's PR guy Again, that is his personal twitter, and he has plenty of opinions there. This is the same twitter where he openly admitted that he hates Starkiller Base, and thinks TFA dropped off a cliff when fan-favourite Han Solo walked onto the screen.
His job. Is not. PR.
His opinions are his own, but when he is talking factually about demographics, you should be considerate about what he is talking about.
Dominic Reyes
It's certainly my favorite of the prequels but I don't think either of the other two are meme choices. AOTC and ROTS both have some really cool stuff.
Same with the OT really. ROTJ is my favorite because it has all the payoff, but ANH is wonderfully stand-alone and ESB really expanded the Force.
Why do opinions that we don't share have to be "meme" opinions?
Christopher Lopez
maz castle flags >oh t-they were going to go away anyway
Luke Evans
>Where's the source though? As a Lucasfilm executive, he is a reliable source.
You can use a basic knowledge of the topic and history of eastern movie release to understand that he is pretty clearly telling the truth; The fact that China never even had a theatrical release of the OT until 2014 should be a pretty big red flag.
There's also the fact that the prequels were more bombastic and "fantastical", and featured a lot more eastern influence and stuff that appeals more to those audiences. Even the presence of the Jedi Order should give you a pretty obvious understanding that this stuff would appeal more to eastern audiences.
>you will never be this blissfully bluepilled on how society and social media actually works, especially in those with strong ties to corporations
Dominic Sanders
>Why do opinions that we don't share have to be "meme" opinions? Because when an opinion is popular, people like to feel superior by having a different opinion. They like to think that everyone else is just a bandwagoner.
Alexander Hernandez
Stop pushing this lie you fucking mongoloid.
You know as well as I that he was referring to that in an In-Universe context. He literally even alluded to Maz needing flags of more recent Podracers.
He didn't defend JJ at all in that tweet, just confirmation that it was Pablo himself how sourced the flags.
Noah Rogers
What incentive could Pablo possibly have to lie about this? It's not like he's shied away from being honest about TFA before.
Julian Rodriguez
I love models. Maybe that's just the Star Trek fan in me, but they look so much better than wholecloth CGI. Look how good the Star Destroyers in RO looked. CGI, yes, but scanned from models. Maybe it has something to do with people working with things they can see in 3D with their eyes rather than creating on a computer screen?
Do you have the LAAT model by the way? I didn't think they made any
Colton Hill

Go ahead and read the rest of my post, and feel free to do a bit of research into the reception and release of Star Wars outside of the USA.
The feel free to explain to me why you think Pablo is wrong and unreliable with his claim here.
Hudson Morris
Stop samefagging.
Jaxson Cooper
Because of his attachment to Star Wars and Lucasfilm, his claim is MORE likely to be biased and influenced.
Connor Turner
Pabbers is also a Prequelfag So now that you have established that it is only his opinion, it frees him up to lie without any consequence.
It's either >It's Pablo's official position as a PRman where he is bound by some shade of the truth Or >It's just him and he can say anything the fuck he wants
Why should I believe either? Show me the proof!

I hate when this image is posted out of context. You're using this wrong.

I love the design of everything in this shot, but I dislike the shot itself. I always felt like it should be a shot that looks like it's from the floor of the hangar looking up at the ship. This shit looks like it was shot with a camera on a crane which is a weird POV for an effect shit that is trying to instill fear and worry.
I mean, the gun drops down and is getting ready to blast the ship, right? Yet this flat angle doesn't reflect that. It was just picked so that the gun would drop down into frame, but this shouldn't be set up as a reveal shot for the cannon, it should be set up to cause the audience to be fearful for the crew.
Oliver Scott
Poor decapitated R2
Caleb Howard
>Why do Mandalorians come across as a bunch of donut steel fanfic characters I hate the memes of Sup Forums and this place. What the fuck gives you this impression? They're a warrior based society that wants to reclaim what they lost because their own blood lust ruined them. I'm not seeing this as "edge" and "cringe". They're a monument of their failure as seen in TCW.

well I studied abroad for a year so quite a few
Hate is a strong word, but when I would bring up the Force they would scoff because they saw it as westerners mixing two opposed and very real philosophies and in the process diluting both for the sake of that touch of "eastern mysticism". Anecdotal yes but I don't see a source claiming China loves the prequels specifically because of the eastern influence either (which frankly sounds a bit racist).
Also I don't mean to rag on the Force here cause I love the fusion, George's ideas are very similar to Alan Watts who also took a catch-all approach, and Watts has been likewise derided by Buddhists and Taoists for similar reasons. Funny that's the one thing they can agree on.

Pretty much everyone that likes the prequels/prequel aesthetics also likes the OT.
There is no divide there, as much as there is an anti-PT bias from a vocal minority. Said minority isn't even the target audience neither, that will always be the children.

Reading the new Thrawn novel, and I'm liking it.
I enjoy the fact that the book makes it clear that not every single trooper in the empire is a Stormtrooper. It has a lot of regular servicemen like Navy troopers and Security servicemen.
Stormtroopers are like an US soldier. You wouldn't see them out patrolling regular city streets, unless the place was under military occupation.
Clone Wars did it too, by showing us regular police droids and regular cops patrolling streets, unless heavy security was need; then they'd have coruscant security clone troopers doing rounds in the area.
I hope Rebels shows us a little bit of this too, since so far we've only seen backwater planets under military occupation.
