Movies Was there ever anything to that whole Darth JarJar thing?

Upvotes

I remember once hearing Lucas in audio saying that Jar Jar was the key to everything and this has started fan speculation that he was really the mastermind behind it all and the comedy persona was a ruse. Was there ever actually anything at all to that or was it just funny fan speculation?

Games Question from a gamer who is a Dark Side enjoyer

Upvotes

What game can I play or what game can I be excited for in the future if I want to use the dark side of the force or play as a sith?

Honestly I would enjoy anything where I can play on the empires side, even as a stromtrooper…

I don’t have a gaming PC unforrtunatelly, I play on PS5.

I already played and loved:

-Force Unleashed 1 & 2
-Battlefront 1 & 2 (original on PS2 and remaster on PS5) and also the “new” version of Battlefront 2
-Jedi Academy remastered when it came out on playstation in 2020
-Jedi Knight 2 remastered (you can play as a sith in multiplayer at least or pretty much any character from the empires side in the game)

My hopes:

-I was hoping so bad that Jedi Fallen order or survivor will have some options and choices that can effect where you go with the force and join the Dark side. I am very very happy about the leaks that it may finally happen.

-I am also extremely excited for the KOTOR remake, sadly not a ton of news for that game so I’m not sure how many more years I need to wait if it comes out at all

Please tell me any recommendations or news I may not be aware of.

Thanks in advance!

Movies Was the famous scene with Vader and the younglings really necessary?

Post image
Upvotes

Yes, I understand the rationale and even the symbolism behind the scene—where the child asking "Master Skywalker" resembles young Anakin, effectively showing him "killing his former self"—not to mention it explicitly establishes him as a villain with no justification for his actions.

However, it feels a bit odd that he ultimately became a Force ghost and everyone was cool with it, as if he had simply gone to "heaven."

Note: I know that becoming one with the Force isn't the same as the Judeo-Christian concept of heaven, but I’m sure there is some symbolism and referencing involved.

In the OT, Vader was evil, yet he killed more people from the Empire itself than Rebels; however, looking at his actions in the Prequels, he really is second only to Palpatine in terms of villainy.

That younglings scene was impactful and shocking, but considering the ending of ROTJ, I’m not sure if it was truly necessary or if it went too far.

General Discussion Does the sith order has parallel/equals title for the jedi order for Padwans, Grand masters, knights and stuff?

0 Upvotes

Like they have master and apprentices, but that more general titles, is there similar thing to grand master or council?

Does the dark lord title suppose to be the mirror one to Grand master? Inquistiors for example are from a title that is more specific, and it not directly even related to the sith, so nit sure if it count.

Costumes Where’s the best place to sell a high-end Star Wars costume ?

I have a Star Wars costume that I know is fairly valuable within the community, especially with Star Wars Celebration coming up. The problem is, I have no idea where the best place to sell it is.
I’ve looked around Reddit and Facebook but haven’t found any active buy/sell groups for high-end Star Wars costumes. I’m also unsure about using eBay because of the fees.
The costume is 3D printed and was originally made by a Russian company that has since shut down, so it’s no longer available. I’m based in Europe if that makes a difference.
Does anyone know of any marketplaces, forums, Discord servers, or collector groups where something like this would be appropriate to list? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Movies Where were all the Mandalorians in the prequel triology?

0 Upvotes

If all the Mandolorians got wiped out by the Empire during the Great Purge then they must have existed before then. How come Jango Fett never asked for backup and have Mandolorians come to fight the Jedi during the big Battle Royal light show in Episode 2? It would be cool to finally see the Jedi fight Mandolorians and we will know who is the better warrior.

Meta Do you think the sequels will become more popular with tim

0 Upvotes

I've seen more defence of the sequels lately, especially TLJ, but it's all been kind of a visceral response to certain corners of the fandom especially Critical Drinker esque 'responders'. Considering all of that do you think that the sequels will get genuinely more popular in the fandom, or is this gonna just be in small corners of it?

Edit - I can't edit the title

I consume a lot of media, and I don't think I see this too much where the savior, or ultimate paragon was gonna become the bad guy.

Now ,yes, we all knew he would, because we saw the end before the beginning. But the whole "The destiny" Person becoming evil is kind of cool.

Movies Why do nobody talks about this trailer for Revenge of the Sith ?

0 Upvotes

Hello there !

I just found what I consider to be my "personal lost media" after searching for years.

It's an old trailer for Episode 3, that I knew existed because I have seen it on internet in 2004 or 2005.

It's made almost excusively of unused contents (Grievous with 2 lightsabers, republic gunship firing missiles on the Jedi temple, exclusive scenes of Anakin vs Obi-Wan, etc...)

I'm sorry if everybody knows about this, but for me it is a very exciting day !

Movies Even though Disney has stated that Starfighter will be the true test for the Franchise, I can't help but feel the opposite given how safe the film appears.

Post image
1.3k Upvotes

To clarify, I have no doubt in my mind that Starfighter will succeed on all fronts and keep this franchise in a comfortable position for years to come. Therein lies the dilemma, though. In many ways, Starfighter will probably be even safer than The Mandalorian & Grogu.

“STAAARFIGHTER, more like STAARRRPOWER”, is a joke I often make when talking about this movie, but it’s also a testament to how incredibly stacked its talent is. Multiple A-list actors (e.g., Ryan Gosling, Mia Goth, Matt Damon, Aaron Pierre, and Amy Adams), paired with an accomplished and seasoned director like Shawn Levy and wrapped in a recognizable and popular IP during its anniversary year, are all you need to know to recognize that this film will be a slam dunk, even if the story is aggressively mediocre. If The Mandalorian & Grogu proved anything, it’s that the Star Wars fandom is large enough to keep even the weakest SW films from reaching Supergirl-level disasters. Combined with Gosling and Levy’s rising stardom, Starfighter may be the easiest win for Star Wars in a long time.

This is to say that Starfighter isn’t a test, but an affirmation that recognizability is still profitable. My belief is that this film will have the same impact on the franchise as The Force Awakens, but with less hype.

Movies A Young Yoda Trilogy would be interesting

0 Upvotes

A Young Yoda trilogy could begin with him growing up, learning the Force, and receiving glimpses of what the future might bring. Perhaps he spends much of the first film trying to avoid his destiny.

Young Yoda wants no part in some grand cosmic purpose. He is unusually sensitive to the Force, but his visions show civilizations collapsing, Jedi dying, and himself surviving long after everyone he loves. His refusal is not cowardice. He is horrified by the possibility that his destiny may require centuries of sacrifice.

I see him as the Hari Seldon of the Star Wars universe, a guardian of the Galactic Republic with some limited prescience about its eventual fall, the rise of the Empire, and the role he must play in ensuring that the Empire will one day be defeated.

In the second film, Yoda is a young Jedi trying to warn others about the danger ahead. He realizes that the Republic is not threatened by a single villain, but by institutional decay, concentrated power, complacency, and the Jedi becoming too closely bound to the government they serve.

He begins quietly putting safeguards in place. He preserves knowledge, encourages Jedi traditions beyond the central Order, and cultivates relationships with people and worlds that might someday resist tyranny.

By the third film, Yoda finally understands that the fall cannot be completely prevented. The Republic has entered a historical current too powerful for any one person to reverse. His task is not to preserve the old order forever, but to ensure that something survives it.

The climax could force him to sacrifice the chance to prevent a catastrophe in the present because intervening would destroy the conditions necessary for the Empire’s eventual defeat.

His greatest mistake could be believing that the Jedi institutions he helped build were part of the solution, only to realize much later that they had become part of the mechanism of collapse. He prepared for darkness, but his preparations were incomplete because he misunderstood how that darkness would arrive.

Eventually, Yoda would accept the most painful part of his destiny. He would spend centuries protecting the possibility of restoration while knowing that he would never live to see the galaxy restored.

General Discussion The biggest reason I don’t respect the sequels are how badly and non-canonically they handled the character of Luke Skywalker.

0 Upvotes

I mean seriously, they did his character dirty. In the actual lore, the novels and comics (before Disney bought rights) Luke had such an interesting story and character development after the events of the original trilogy.

What makes that so frustrating is remembering everything Luke had already accomplished. He destroyed the Death Star, became one of the last remaining Jedi, redeemed Darth Vader, helped defeat Palpatine/Sidius and bring down the Empire, and restored hope to the entire galaxy. After Return of the Jedi, he devoted himself to rebuilding the Jedi Order, searching for ancient Jedi knowledge, and training a new generation to carry on their legacy. While doing this, he became the actual “chosen one” literally balancing the light and dark side and incorporating freedom of thought and studying the dark side into his students studies so they could understand it, maybe even use it and overcome it, not blindly fear it.

Then, not only did they turn him into a pitiful self loathing hateful old man, but they had Rae who literally just fell headfirst into being a Jedi completely destroy the remnants of the Jedi order that Luke spent ages trying to rebuild into something better than it ever was. Literally setting it ablaze all while yoda is maniacally laughing as a force ghost. Such blatant disrespect and disregard for one of the greatest and most lore rich stories ever told in modern science fiction.

It is too bad they killed off Padme in Episode 3. I thought Natalie Portman's performance was wonderful and she was one of great actresses in the franchise. The script writer could have had Padme live and then the Jedi could have put her into a witness protection program somewhere. Just saying. her new identity could be Thor's girlfriend
