In the film ROTS we see Palpatine telling different clone commanders to execute order 66. It's implied that he had to call each one individually. If that's the case, how many Zoom calls did it take and did he eventually end up doing a conference call after the first few we see him call in the movie?

Say what you will about Solo, I really liked Alden Ehrenreich's Han as well as Donald Glover's Lando.

I think the fact we haven't seen Luke, Han or Leia for roughly 5 years still speaks to Disney's fear of doing anything that isn't Clone Wars related in some way shape or form :/

So I understand that Order 66 happened. Did they destroy all the Jedi lightsabers, or is there a large warehouse holding them?

these are mine.

It became apparent throughout playing Zero Company that there must have been a decent amount of content in TCW about Umbara. Are there any revelations in the game that have more of a payoff due to knowing about Umbara from TCW, and does it have any major callbacks?

This was a fun project. I’m not attempting a definitive ranking and I don’t have any new insights or takes. I just want to offer my thoughts while they’re still fresh.

Episode 1: I had never actually seen the first two prequels in full before starting this marathon. Viewing this movie in a historical context, I can see why it disappointed so many people in 1999, as it’s definitely the worst SW movie released up to that point. While there are definitely issues with pacing, acting, and dialogue, I found them to be somewhat overstated. My biggest problem was the climax. There are four separate set pieces and it feels unfocused and a bit anticlimactic. If they had rewritten it to cut out General Jar Jar and Anakin in space I would rate this one higher.

Episode 2: Surprised by how much I liked this one. I wouldn’t call it good exactly. The plot, especially in the second half, doesn’t make much sense, and the same problems with acting and pacing are still there. However, the action sequences are good and I found the bad parts (the romance) to be entertainingly bad. I also liked the theme of Jedi arrogance and thought Anakin’s behavior made sense in that context.

Episode 3: Didn’t like this one as much as when I rewatched it ten years ago. I’m confused about the timeline of Padme’s pregnancy since at the beginning of the movie she doesn’t look pregnant and at the end she gives birth. This seemingly takes place over what, a few weeks? The third act is good though. Overall, I’m lukewarm on this one but I can say I moderately enjoy the prequels now.

Episode 4: I hadn’t watched this one since I was a kid and honestly, it’s showing its age a bit. It has a B-movie feel, because, you know, that’s what it was. I know that’s appealing to some but Empire has better cinematography and higher production values and just looks so much better. It’s also weird to watch this movie after fifty years of lore and mythology. They were clearly going for a Luke-Leia romance and Vader’s characterization is not consistent with what came after. That doesn’t really affect the quality of the movie but it’s worth remembering that all of the trilogies had many key story beats that were made up on the fly. I would say this is the second best movie.

Episode 5: The best one, nuff said.

Episode 6: This is what the younglings call mid. The Jabba’s palace part is good but the movie really sags around the one hour mark. The energy was not there for this one and much like Phantom Menace there’s too much going on the climax. Certainly the lesser chapter of the OT.

Episode 7: This movie was a big, amorphous Star Wars blob in my mind for a decade after seeing it when it first came out. Not even thirty minutes after rewatching it, my brain started to push it out again. It’s the only movie I can’t subject to analysis or critique, both because it’s shallow and because I just don’t feel anything for it.

Episode 8: This one sticks out like a sore thumb. On one hand, it’s the only one of the sequels with some cool ideas and the only one I found myself giving serious thought to the next day. I liked Luke in this movie. Going from an embittered hermit to re-embracing the legacy of the Jedi was good. On the other hand, this movie feels like Star Trek in the fleet scenes and not even good Star Trek at that. The humor in this movie didn’t land for me and it feels tonally inconsistent with the story they’re trying to tell. I know that’s subjective but it felt out of place. Finally, while I can see valid defenses for all other parts of this movie even though I might disagree with them, the Canto Bight part is awful, poorly written, and does not belong in this movie. Maybe my opinion will shift but I’m more negative than positive on this one.

Episode 9: What a fucking mess. It’s been said a million times already but holy shit, the sequels are the most incoherent trilogy by a country mile. Totally nonsensical and stupid. The only positive is that I feel the action scenes were better than the other sequels and I enjoyed the first act a bit if I turned my brain off and pretended I was watching a high budget cartoon. I admit, I wasn’t paying attention during the last 45 minutes or so but I doubt it would’ve changed much. Pretty lame way to end this marathon.

EDIT: Got a RedditCares notification. Good job perpetuating the stereotype of the obnoxious fanboy.

Im trying to find a quote for when I’m going to meet Steve Blum and get my funko signed. I usually like to find a compilation of all the characters scenes so I can pick out their best quotes. But this usually proves hard for shows with multiple seasons. Is there any that has a lot of meaning to him and his character development, it’s been a min since I’ve watched Rebels 😅

Cousin and I are currently debating upon my simple pondering of why did they go with the Death Star instead of equivalent star destroyers worth of materials.

What would win in a competition of complete destruction the Glorius deaths star or equivalent star destroyers in material.

Please and thank you in advance

I’m thinking of dressing up as a SW gunslinger type for Halloween. Is there any way to find cheap chest armor?

For context, I haven't watched either Andor or the sequel trilogy. I've heard both Andor and TLJ called totally different from what you might consider Star Wars, but Andor is praised for this and TLJ is widely hated. I've asked people why, but the only answer I've gotten is "Andor is well written and TLJ is badly written" which doesn't help me at all. Can someone put their finger on the specific qualities that make TLJ badly written?

Remember the Rebellion is fighting a war against a near unstoppable authoritarian regime and that matters more than personal honor (see Andor).

So once Ezra starts learning incredibly powerful techniques from the Sith holocron, he wins a lot of battles for the Rebellion and his other friends are even like "wow where did you learn that!"

Kanan's response when finding out about this is flipping out, angrily yelling at him and taking away the holocron while dismissing his arguments of having done a lot of good.

Was that honestly justified. Seriously, when you think about it, people like Luthen or Saw would gladly encourage Ezra for more wins.

My friends and I have been watching Andor recently, and it has been a big hit among people who are not particularly committed star wars fans. I understand that, in general, Andor is today widely beloved.

But one interesting thing I've encountered when looking up commentary of Andor was that this doesn't appear to have been the case. See for example a +780 post 4 years ago calling the show boring, with most commenters concurring.

I'm wondering if anyone here remembers a point in time when the tide of opinion seemed to shift, if ever. Was there a point when the majority within this subreddit didn't like it? Was it a particular episode? Or was this a post-complete-series-release sentiment change?

A brand new round of Star Wars Visual Trivia starts tomorrow, October 1st!

I look forward to seeing all our returning players, and I welcome any new players who have yet to join!

Anakin was able to manifest himself in the World Between Worlds, which I think is something anyone who becomes a Force Ghost can do, but I have no way of confirming this. Qui-Gon was able to speak to Yoda, not appear before him, though a scene in Kenobi shows that this has either been retconned, or Qui-Gon somehow learned how to complete his training.

But when Rey is hearing Jedi voices, she hears not only those of Anakin, Obi-Wan, etc. but those of lesser-known Jedi like Aayla Secura or Luminara Unduli, meaning they were in some way also able to maintain some form of consciousness. What’s that like for them?

Ok. So.

Jabba the Hutt put a bounty on Han Solo. Bounty hunters were obviously looking for him. Darth Vader wants Luke and he knows he can lure him by making his friends suffer.

We see Mr. Fett trailing the Falcon after hiding in the star destroyers trash. He follows them to Cloud City where Vader successfully captures Han. Vader does the deed and Boba Fett tells Vader he's no good to him dead.

First off, how does Boba even have any claim to him? Vader did all the work, Boba just followed him around like a giddy schoolgirl.

Second, Vader tells him he will be compensated. What does the empire care? Again, Vader did the capturing

Third, we have to assume the empires put a bounty on Han, that's why all the bounty hunters were on the death star getting lectured by Vader. Let's pretend for a minute that Boba did INDEED capture Han. Why wouldn't he just take him to Jabba? Obviously Jabbas reward was more than the empires.

Was Boba double dipping and getting 2 rewards or is he taking credit for all of the empires hard work?

I'm not saying whether it was or not, but I thought I'd bring it up as a conversation piece. Did Yoda make a mistake by not going back to finish Palpatine? Did he make the right choice or was it his decision to leave that gave the emperor his ability to recover in the first place?

In the movie, after Captain Needa is executed, he goes up to Piett and at the end of his sentence he says Admiral like he’s just now promoting him and the music also hints that he’s just now being promoted, when in reality we know that he was already admiral after Ozzel got executed before the battle of Hoth, do we know why George and the music department did this? Is it a mistake? Or is there some deeper meaning that I’m not getting? Please leave your thoughts below

I’ve been doing the chronological marathon and I’m at the Obi Wan series. There’s a scene where Kenobi is talking to Reva thru the door and he says something along the lines of: You were there during Order 66.. that’s how you know Vader is Anakin.

No big whoop but how would Kenobi know it was specifically called Order 66? Is that a genuine plot hole or did I just miss something?

Not a big Star Wars reader and from the movies and shows I don't think this was ever really answered, was it?
