Yeah, ratings were always a problem for the show. 2nd season had better ratings from what i remember, so I think they thought they'd be able to continue the show but they found out pretty late that it wasn't being picked up for season 3.

No, they are saying that the franchise is old and tired.

Zerg vs protoss. Complete philosophical difference in troop structure. I think xwing vs tie fighter mentioned that it wasn't a single xwing against a single tie fighter, it was one xwing against 3 ties. And in that scenario, the ties have the advantage.

Yeah, call me skeptically optimistic about the leak. There seems to be enough call backs to the other movies without being run by them. It has its own plot that's connected, but not mandated, if that makes sense.

Yeah, that would make sense

Weird... I swear I read that Kira and black trooper found Luke's hand and saber on tatooine. But it doesn't. Weird

My only gripe, as has been stated by others, is how is Luke's hand on tatooine, how has it not decomposed, and how is it still holding a lightsaber? The other things could be very interesting but I'm just stuck on that plotpoint

Like... EVERYTHING that I was ever confused about you just became 100% clear.

I distinctly remember knowing 20 years ago that the old stormtroopers, possibly current stormtroopers, were clones. But I have no basis for knowing that. I'd never read a star wars book at that point and there was no wookiepedia. It was just something I knew and informed all the plebes about.

I thought clones as storm troopers were brought up in one of the original trilogy books, and that's where people just assumed all stormtroopers are cloned came from... But I could be wrong

Does everyone remember when metal gear solid 2 came out and kojima trolled everyone with raiden? Then he super trolled everyone and turned him into the new cyborg ninja that everyone had no choice but to love? Max von sydow is jarjar.

Well, the original trilogy only hinted that troopers were EVER clones. So there's no reason to believe that the troopers outside of the prequals are clones, thus, episode 7 shouldn't have clones either

Yeah, there's a time and a place for shaky cam, and outside of some innocent being hunted by a sith, I don't think star wars is really a place for it. Then again, I would LOVE to see a movie devoted solely to some gritty, apocolypse now clone troopers.

Yeah, there was that possible leak of Luke using both light and dark side interchangeably, and going into exile because of it, because of the inherent dangers of using both sides. It would be great to see more characters use typically opposite sides of the force.

You already did.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, shaky cam in the right context is great. In an unexpected car accident, in a rookie experiencing war for the first time, someone being mugged, etc. It provides a strong sense of chaos, claustrophobia, and confusion. Which is the exact reason why people...

It magically stops because its not a laser, its plasma held in place by shielding. That's why it repells other lightsabers and blaster bolts, but other materials can pass through the barrier and touch the plasma. /nerd

So I once read a book about why samurai used curved swords and why european knights used straight blades. I thought it was really interesting at the time that katanas were curved specifically to cut the silk that held Japanese armor together whereas the straight blades of the Europeans were...

Eh, maybe they changed the mechanics then. That's how it was a while ago. Just checked, they changed it to the underdog system in july.

Technically yes, by its the other way around, I think. The higher level you are, the less exp you get for things. I want to say its a 10% penalty per level, capping at 50%

Is that like, a venom fly trap on his head?

Ancient lightsabers needed a battery pack on a belt, so that is a nice touch. No idea on the quality of the writing though

The devil you know is working out great for me with the 12 ammo clip. But I just bought shadow price so we'll see what I think after its leveled up

I'm conflicted because I feel for his wife... That being said, someone needs to get his wife to hire Deena for this exact arrangement without letting her know that j49 is the one she'd end up watching.

I guess... But that line is the punchline of the trailer. How can you miss it?

No, I'm not saying that it doesn't get stale. I'm just saying that that is just as much of a character defining trait as Han shooting first. Whether you think it makes him boring or not is a perfectly valid opinion either way, but taking that away from his character is why some people are upset.

Yeah, they did write a book for tfu, but I thought it was just the novelization of the game(s). I don't think there was any continuation of the story. But I could be wrong

Someone said earlier that Superman's moral compass handicaps the writers. That's only true for weak writers. Superman's moral compass is just as much his weakness as kryptonite, and I would argue that it's much more interesting. Anyone can throw kryptonite at him but only certain characters can...

Well, just the part about the clones being cray cray and deformed. The game didn't really spend any time talking about their lightsabers or where their drugstores were

It's frustrating because there are some movies where 3d really added to the enjoyment. Pacific rim for example. But 90% of the time its completely avoidable

Okay, so I read up on it, and apparently MGM just had a ton of issues. They started an actors guild dispute that threatened even filming in NZ. NZ filed a bunch of stuff to redifine some paperwork as filming somewhere else could cost the economy 1.5 billion. It looks like the majority of the...

Yeah, the nightfall was really hard solo. But it is specifically because of arc burn. 85% of the enemies use arc damage. The bosses don't so damage from them is pretty light, it's just ALL the yellow health bar enemies that spawn for sepiks prime are chucking arc grenades and taking arc pot...

Also, new Zealand is now hip to the IP. When lotr was filming, no one had any idea exactly how much of a cash cow it was, so NZ didn't charge much to film there. But now? Oh, peter Jackson wants to make more lotr movies here? Let's charge him a premium to do it. New Zealand IS middle earth at...

The first one was a diamond in the rough. I don't know anyone who expected anything out of it but groans but we all really enjoyed it. I don't know what to think of this though... Was the first one a fluke? Or is the "really good despite all rational thinking" part of it's charm?

Harrison ford in his prime was really just a force to be reckoned with. The things he said and did were things that no one has the guts to do. And this cat just saunters onto the set and says, stephen... I have a gun... Why am I gonna sword fight with him? I'm not doing it. And everyone looks at...

Force unleashed is set in between the movie trilogies... Probably closer to a few years before a new hope. I thought that the emperor didn't clone himself until later in life, closer to empire... But I could be wrong. Same with c'boath. He would have been cloned right about or slightly after...

Aren't the login servers and game servers different? I was under the impression that the ddos attack was specifically on the login servers. But I wasn't following it much so I could be wrong

Bleh... Sorry, I usually post on my phone and Swype chooses some words over others inexplicably. So canon is always cannon and you're is always your. If I'm not posting close enough attention I miss it Edit: case in point...

Force unleashed 2 was all about cloning force users. It was regarded as a pretty rare accomplishment. The EU did it, but I don't think before force unleashed (timeline-wise). And force unleashed is no longer cannon. It was honestly pretty borderline cannon even before lucas sold star wars. I...

If Dr strange involves a gem, and I don't see why it couldn't, I would assume that the gem ISN'T on earth. I would assume the gem would be on some other plane.
