They’re only ineffective when pitted against plot armor main characters. They kill tons of rebel troopers in the opening of New Hope.

They’re depicted as fodder troops but the “ineffective” bit (stormtroopers can’t aim) is a fan-added layer applied after the fact, and the references used to “prove” said ineffectiveness is all scenes where they’re shooting at main characters.

They won't even have guns in this faggots movie so missing won't be a problem.

It was also there in the legends EU. The original kamino clones were accurate and well trained. Then some sloppy clones came along who were poorly trained. Then by the time of ANH the troopers were conscripts with varying levels of skill.

Where else were they super accurate? Because those troopers in the beginning of ANH were the 501st. Vader's fist. An elite legion that picked from the best of the best.

Well of course not anymore because it all happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away ...

In all seriousness, lucas had episoides 1-3 sketched out when he did ep 4. I don't think either of us has any idea how much detail he had planned out. But he definitely had clones planned though.

Bob Chapek was from the parks. That didn't last.

This is the second time they tried to take a CEO from the parks division.

Chepek wasn't really in charge, most everything that came from his tenure still had iger's fingerprints all over it

It's true Chapek had to tolerate Iger as a new "co-Chairman" at the time.

because the board didn't feel confident in letting Chapek have the full reins-- which made Chapek have to clear everything with Iger. You're right.
