Thrawn, Vader, Palpatine, and some randos from Legends books are about it for actual competent Imp people in cannon.

As much as I want to see it, this is why I do not want to ever see Disney restart Firefly. Just have to accept that the show will never return, as I do not want to see it wrecked like Star Wars for the most part(Andor withstanding) has been.

I liked Firefly, but it wasn't some masterpiece.

Just finished this season. I fucking loved it. Some of the animations reminded me of the original Clash of the Titans, others just felt puppety. Either way, I thought it was great. hehe

This season is a mix bag but the fight scene was awesome, espicially against the red guards which was a way better fight than the Last Jedi.

I think the next season should go back to it's bounty hunter roots, where the pair fly around the galaxy doing bounty work, I think Mando would need a bigger ship like his old one. Hell season 4 could be like Star Trek, where they encounter weird and unique worlds and maybe they meet the Star Wars equivalent of Q.

Here is an idea to win fans back. New series called Order 66 TVMA. Fucking win win and D+ Subs would triple. But it we'll never happen because reasons.

A reminder George Lucas came up with the concept for HBO's Rome in the late 90's (that was stolen) with the perspective of the denizens on Coruscant telling the story of the fall of the Empire.

There was a concept video produced that looked TV MA rated and pretty spot on for the tone of the type of sci-fi people want to see.

Now only way we're getting that is if George buys back Star Wars, which he might someday. Shame he lacked the balls to pull the trigger on the TV show while he had the chance.

I'm pretty sure more than one person had the unquestionably rare idea to put one of the most pivotal set of events in Western Civilization to film...

Too many parts crossed over with Rome and Rome was made within 2-3 years. George's TV show specifically mentioned merchants and shopkeepers and made specific references to perspective characters. Rome's perspective storytelling for television was in fact pretty unique at the time. He had been shopping the idea for the Star Wars TV show around town, trying to find a home for it.

Which a writer/creator/producer on Rome then casually ripped off. George would have a decent case in court if he wanted to embarrass himself. I doubt he'd win any royalties or rights though, like you've implied it's a form of storytelling that Rome didn't exactly come up with-- although it was one of the TV shows that innovated it, albeit the idea was stolen.

I'm not trolling here, but can you please explain what was so exceptional about those Praetorian guards? because this is what i saw. 3 guys dressed in red with their own theme music moving in slow motion trying to hit a tiny green baby and failing.

it must be some good stuff. but he isnt the only one jizzing over those guys. i just want to know why. why do they seem "cool"? red outfits and music? well ok, but did they actually do anything cool?

The lore is what makes them exceptional. The ones in this dumpster fire of a show are modeled on the imperial guards of the emperor (and are the precursors of similar guards in episode 7 or 8, whichever one has Snoke in it) and are supposed to be the most elite warriors; the best of the best. But in this garbage show, they could not even chase down a retradedly wobbling toddler or beat a barely moving fatmando. Fuck this show and fuck new star wars.
