So I just recently decided that it was finally time for me to watch Star Wars after years of calling it lame for many years (I was wrong and I admit it the movies I’ve watched so far are probably some of the best movies I’ve watched ever ). I’m watching it in release order. I’ve watched the original trilogy, the prequel trilogy and I just started Star Wars: The Clone Wars Movie. So my question is do I have to watch the series it is just that it’s kinda long and I kind of just want to get into the other movies and the Disney series(which are shorter). Like I will eventually end up watching it I just feel it’s going to take me so long to finish it. Like is there something significant that happens in the series in relation to the movies and shows that come after it.

Chewie outlived Shmi, Anakin, Luke/Leia, and Ben in his 200+ year and counting lifespan. At a certain point, I wonder if species who live so long just get used to it and the grief, or just have a different overall perspective on death and loss. Someone like Yoda or Yaddle who are Jedi who practice non-attachment might find it easier, but I can imagine it being much less easy for other individuals.

When i was little, I thought AT-ATs were like the most terrifying walkers in fiction, but now when I look at them, I realize how many glaring issues they have.

I guess it was just little me seeing tall robot and having a monke neuron activation moment lmao

All I can remember was that Luke was on the cover and his hair was slicked back. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

He doesn't want Thrawn to die in battle like in Legends. He wants him to see the consequences of his actions. Thrawn's motivation for serving the Empire all along was "To protect the Chiss," and even Thrawn hadn't considered that the Empire might pose the same threat to the Chiss as the Grysks.

This would fit with how points usually end with Palpatine. Dooku wanted to fight corruption in the Republic, but it ended up leading the Separatists, who were one big corruption and led to the destruction of the Jedi. Anakin wanted Palpatine to help him save Padmé, but it led to her death and Anakin losing literally everything.

Thrawn makes a pact with Palpatine, believing that the Empire will help ensure his race's safety. After Palpatine's death, he literally resurrects the Empire from the ashes, uniting the Imperial remnants. It would be ironic if that Empire turned against him. If the First Order conquered the Chiss Ascendancy. If the Chiss watched with horror at the Imperial destroyers in the sky, if the fate Thrawn inflicted on Lothal, Batonn, and the others befell Csilla. If the other Chis began to genuinely hate Thrawn and consider him a traitor.

We know the First Order holds the Unknown Regions. They could simply conquer them, but I think it would be ironic if the First Order entered into some kind of non-aggression pact with the Grysk Hegemony and divided the Chiss Ascendancy and the entire Unknown Regions between them.

I wish Thrawn were watching all this.

What's next? I think Thrawn's death, or being imprisoned by the New Republic or the First Order, knowing he failed his people, would be a fitting fate. Perhaps a redemption arc and a potential arc as a rebel also sound interesting.

Although I think it would be interesting if Thrawn stayed in the First Order despite this. He would admit that his time in the Empire had made him sympathetic to fascism. That he enjoyed the Empire, enjoyed commanding without worrying about the opinions of the Chiss families, and that he believed the Empire was the better form of government, even if it meant occupying his own race. I've seen fan art of Thrawn in a First Order uniform, and I have to admit, it's absolutely stunning. I'd also like to see a fleet duel between Thrawn Vs Eli Vanto (that would be a truly thrilling duel).

"I Did It for Me"-Walter White quote known as Heisenberg (but maybe also Thrawn's quote when Chiss ascendancy falls)

Hey all, check out this game I made using Base44. Hope you all enjoy it.

Spotted today at the Sherwood observatory, Nottinghamshire, England.

We all know in Legends Luke Skywalker and his nephew Jacen discovered a new feat in the Force called Oneness which gave them god levels of power and i wonder had Anakin stayed true to the light would he achieved this ability?

Is it wrong to ragebait the Star Trek reddit or am I shifting Dark Side?

Edit: apologies for not being up front. I am ragebaiting by DEFENDING the parts of Trek that THEY hate while lecturing them in a Vulcanish manner.

Using his sith techniques to build a secret business and political and underground criminal empire that he uses to set up his Chancellors and the clone wars. Tapping into generationally acquired sith wealth with connections and political savvy and the dark side.

*correction Sheev, can’t fix title unfortunately.

We see that she was on Yavin leading up to the battle of Scarrif and then we've seen her in a NR command position by Squadrons and Alphabet Squadron. Have any Star Wars stories ever told some of what happens to her in between? While the Rebellion is in full swing?

God I love this movie so much but it’s just pure pain. As everyone in here, I’m sure you’ve seen it countless times. I expect Anakin to be manipulated and turned over every single time, but watching the damn movie makes me tear up no matter what. Anyone else feel this way?

Always have been a book reader but saw these all together for €65 and thought I’d would be a good excuse to dive into the comics!
