Just a reminder that the Battle of Yavin was a war in itself...

The final star war? Lol. Sometimes I overlook the name but it really is just Star Wars . And they fight on stars I guess

The North Korean remake is going to be much more epic...

And walk on skies! When I was a kid the name Skywalker really drew me in.

^ It just started bugging me lately that Owen and Beru could fight off the Third Sister but not a small detachment of Stormtroopers who were lousy shots. I know they were nine years older, but still...

My head-canon refuses to acknowledge that series.

In 77 I was swept off my feet imagining Reva and 3rd sisters.

Scrapped Star Wars writer Damon Lindelof is taking part in the writers' strike and said "picketing Disney is a lot more fun than writing a Star Wars movie".

Re: Here so as not to further derail the Mando S3 Gideon thread...

... S3 kinda killed my passion for the show. I blame Luke.

Once you bring a Skywalker into the mix (particularly Luke) every other character comes off as an also-ran sidekick and there's very little air left in the room for anyone else. Best thing that ever happened to The Mandalorian might also prove to be the worst thing for future seasons

To the contrary I feel Luke's appearances in Disney canon; Last Jedi and Mando was a disservice to his character, and ultimately served to diminish him. Where he came off as an also-ran, useless side character, completely degraded just to make the derivative Disney and now Favroniverse characters look better.

Although admittedly Luke's first Mando appearance, seeing the strong and hope-filled Luke we once knew, and imagined into the future, was great!
Once it registers that him saving Grogu, is just a reminder all his recruits will be killed. As per Disney Luke is the ultimate hopeless coward, and failed Jedi.
Realizing this, they had Luke quickly (LW&C nod aside) force Grogu an ultimatum, which betrayed everything Luke learned and was, and just as callously dispense with him, which again made Luke look like a complete failure, as per Disney canon.

When the question among the fan base becomes “who does ‘The Mandalorian’ reference?” the show has lost its way. ...

How "This is the Way", so easily transitioned to "Lost it's Way"
Clearly "The Mandalorian" refers to Grogu, who will inevitably get his ridiculous tiny armor, then tame and ride the mighty Mythosaur!

Kidding, yeah I think Bo Katan has been set up for that and Mando (who literally sunk like a useless stone, in the Living Waters, and in his own show), is just there to watch her.

I think it's clear Filoni and his KK approved fem-force have become the main drive and focus of the franchise.
Luckily several of those characters are really great! And they are all better than Ezra.

Favreu should have bowed out with his fantastic S2 finally. Which for a glorious second, read as a new canon for a hopeful Luke and imagined future.

Then you are quickly reminded, oh right, Disney Luke is a crap different character.

LOL rant.
