Re: Savage Opress
I hate the character. I liked Maul as a silent bad ***. His resurrection was stupid and his brother, Savage, was a stupid character. And his story was part of the ****ing of the canon of my favorite star wars character (Asajj). God I hate what they did to her. I hated that they ignored her original comic look and story, and made her look like a witch, then they actually made her a literal ****ing witch!
I hated this show. It would have been fine if they weren't so lazy as to ignore previous people's work on Star Wars. It is shameful to ignore years of others' officially licensed work for no reason. Like calling Korriban Moriband in the last episodes. Technically the show takes precedence of all games, books, and comics; Therefore Korriban according to official cannon is not the true home planet of the sith and no longer exists (Which hopefully everyone will forget and ignore like The Force Unleashed II). One of the most important planets in Star Wars dismissed for no reason. It's the same planet with a different name. It's like they screwed with other's work just because they could. They did it INTENTIONALLY and I can't understand why. It's disgusting. It's just a small example but this one particularly pisses me off because for some reason they did it for the purpose of there being a contradiction.
Thanks to them my dream piece doesn't exist. Sideshow adopted Asajj's new look and the life size bust was not the real character. I can't tell you how upsetting it is to me that they made my favorite character in life size form (Which is a one in a million chance to begin with) and did the version of her that, in my opinion, destroyed her character. I would love nothing more than to tell Dave Filoni and George Lucas what disrespectful little ****s they are for having no appreciation for any of the other countless people who have contributed to the franchise besides them. Especially since many of them did better work than either of these two ever had.
I swear to god if the upcoming show "Rebels" retcons the Force Unleashed I'll lose it. Adapt it into film. It ties the two trilogies together perfectly and is a perfect star wars story. Take out the video game format and it is classic star wars through and through. But screw the cannon which has always been well maintained until recently, we'll do what we want. We don't play by the same rules and don't need to respect other people's contributions as they would respect ours. A franchise as big and with as many stories as star wars is bigger than Dave Filoni and his crew.
TL;DR: **** Dave Filoni, George Lucas, and all of the other writers for these shows.
