#Star wars Spoilers

[enoby-raven-way]

I can't take seriously a star wars fix-it that happens after the genocide. It doesn't matter if you get Anakin to turn back, he definitely still murdered a whole bunch of children. In cold blood. Like, he ain't getting a happy ending

[my-blog-is-a-sideblog]

I'm planning some "Darth father being Luke's father" level of bad wordplay

[cr1ms0n5]

So my sibling and I made a deal years ago where I would watch Star Wars if they watched Avatar: The Last Airbender. Mind you I had already watched Episode I and today we decided to watch Episode II.

Well that's it, we finished the second movie. When will we watch the rest? Idk and I'm too tired to think of that right now anyways. Goodnight!

[thesilvershire]

did you watch skeleton crew and if you did, what are your thoughts?

I did, and I liked it! Spoilers below the cut.

I went in with low expectations since I’m usually annoyed by child actors, but once the adventure got going, I had a good time. I like that it was relatively low-stakes plot without too much connection to the wider Star Wars universe. I also think it avoided the pacing problems that a lot of recent Star Wars series have had. The story had time to breathe, but there wasn’t much wasted time (aside from the stuff on At Achrann—I didn’t really care for that episode until they got to the sanctum at the end, and I think I would have rather seen Jod’s half of the story). The whole space pirate aesthetic was fun, too. SM-33 was great. I don’t think we really need a second season, but I’d like some of these characters to show up again in the future.

[sicktrix]

ANYWAYS WIM GOT HIS JEDI/LIGHTSABER MOMENT NOT BECAUSE OF SOME LAST MINUTE FORCE SENSITIVE BULLSHIT REVEAL BUT BECAUSE HE’S A GENUINELY GOOD AND COMPASSIONATE PERSON WHO WANTS TO PROTECT OTHERS AND THAT MAKES HIM MORE OF A JEDI THEN JOD WILL EVER BE I KNOW THAT’S RIGHT

[noddytheornithopod]

so jod turned out to basically be ezra bridger if everything went horribly wrong for him, if jod shows up in future content ezra is now the main character i want to see him meet

[yellingmetatron]

In timelines where Metatron knows he's going to die sometimes he goes ahead and infodumps the future with total honestly to whoever is going to kill him, and it looks like this. It just amuses him.

Spoiler warnings for the entirety of Star Wars.

[chissjedi]

At Attin. The mythical lost planet of "eternal treasure" being depicted as Space American Suburbia. A false utopia that is actually extremely controlling and oppressive.

[jiminysjournal]

Skeleton Crew opening crawl:

Remote hyperspace routes are increasingly plagued by piracy.

These PIRATES boldly brand their armored hulls as a sign to all ships. Surrender or die.

Well, gee, if you hadn't purged stuff like Willow…

STAR WARS RANT INCOMING!

If I could change two things about the entire Star Wars canon, I would firstly make Anakin Skywalker 14 years old in The Phantom Menace.

It fixes so much that doesn’t work about the prequels.

The Jedi Council evaluation: He’s too angry? A kind, empathetic boy who had been raised a slave on a hard world run by the biggest criminal empire in the galaxy - of course. Of course he would be. That kind of injustice would burn so deeply - at 14, he would not just be a witness to the wrongs, he would understand them, and that’s why he would be “too old”. The Jedi Council would clock immediately that this boy had learned how to hate, in a way so deeply entrenched that no amount of training and meditation would wash that away.

Make him 14, and the Jedi Council goes from a bunch of dicks to instead a bunch of misguided dicks in a way that makes mores sense with the Clone Wars portrayals.

At 14, Anakin would be YOUNG but believable as a genius pilot. Qui Gon gambling on the pod race, him defeating the Trade Federation control ship? An incredible feat! But not ridiculous, as it kinda is in the movie. Also, 13-14 is older enough that I believe he could convince his mother to let him compete at all. If my 8-9 year old was flying in homicidal death races, I would lose my shit. No. Just no.

It’s also more believable (and significantly less creepy) that a 14 year old Anakin could meet Padme, 17-18yo herself, bond innocently in the circumstances and have that develop into a deep love and admiration when they meet again older. So much less cringe!!!

That’s #1 what I would change.

#2 is that I would rewrite Anakin and Padme’s entire doomed narrative.

Padme and Anakin needed parallel character arcs over the course of the wars up until RotS, as the war pushed them father and farther from each other ideologically until finally ending with him tearing down the Republic as she raised the Rebellion to fight the Empire put in its place (which is canon and got cut).

Lucas wrote the tragedy that Anakin killed her because he thought she had betrayed him when she hadn’t - the tragedy should have been because she HAD.

Also, stfu with whole “she has lost the will to live”, I defy you to say Padme would not cling screaming to life every second she could to leave her children a safer galaxy.

Anyway, these aren’t the only things one could change to improve the Star Wars canon, but I think they would have the biggest overall positive impact. We get left with an older Anakin, heroic, full of the desire to do good, and only too aware of the injustices and hypocrisy that surround him in the Order, already walking the knife edge of love and bitterness.

What dya think? I would love to hear other opinions!

[cowboylikemorgan]

I hope Tony Revolori gets more opportunities for voice acting cause he was incredible as Darth Dev in Rebuild the Galaxy!!

All the voice acting was wonderful though. I hope they continue this storyline

[dontyoufeelitangel]

Star Wars is more war than stars, idk how to feel about that

[huntingforstardust]

you know things are bad when you start relating to anakin

[scratching92]

So the Drengir are slowly dying. And they seem to be dying alone, despite being a hive mind with The Great Progenitor. And The Great Progenitor's last known location is the seas of Eiram. Which is in the Outer Rim. Which is the region of space closest to Wild Space. And, coincidentally, quite close to the strange decay Marchion Ro has been investigating.

... Hm. I'm sure all of these things are not even slightly related.
