/starwars/ - Star Wars

I loved the y-wing too. And even though I'm one of the guys who was hyping the a-wing, I forgot how much I love this ship. When I was younger my dad and I would play rogue squadron together. I always got to do the y-wing missions. They were my favorite.

>>3188

Those are complete shit

I'm sure they are amazing to drive though

>>4203

It seems like a good story but fuck me, EA really nuked themselves in the foot by not making The Old Republic a single player game. It would have been an amazing RPG if they put their mind to it.

>>4205

in essence, it is a single-player game. The MMO-part is pretty much optional at this point. In particular when it comes to the story-quests.

Though, in regard to their non-canonicity, I'd say they've branched off and made their own canon.

>>4206

Suggestion is that it would have been better if they scrapped the MMO part and just went full Single Player.

>>4202

I've spent too much time in MMOs to be able to immerse myself in a story with that type of gameplay.

Also MMO pacing isn't right for a Star Wars rpg.

But I m fucking weak, probably gonna subscribe again in a couple of years to go through the story.

>>4211

Although roleplay ganking of rep scum reminded myself of the good old days.

>>3540

maybe the greatest profession of all time

>>4125

Looks like the worst fanfic SSD I have ever seen.

>tfw rip off of the thrawn story

>tfw not-thrawn appears

>>4134

If Thrawn appears in the new films kicking ass there were be a lot of awkward erections in the cinema. We know unfortunately that will not happen.

>>4153

>fighting off ground troops that never showed up.

but they did, AT-ATs carry and deploy infantry

>>4161

>>4156

>>4155

I remember reading in the original book that the troops inside touched off their ordnance to try to take some rebels out, since they assumed they would be killed anyway and force knows what kind of things they were told through propaganda the rebels would do to them if they were captured…

>>4164

yet they apparently deployed none until after walking over the trenches.

>>4168

Seems like a sound move, why fight through trenches when you can walk over them? Rebels were counting on the cold taking deployment of the Walkers out of the picture, which did almost happen.

>>4117

Delaying action. They needed to keep the Imperials busy long enough to get their transports out. It was basically a matter of keeping the Imperial focus off the transports and on them.

Their gun emplacements are old and outdated, but still effective against a fair amount of Imperial Vehicles. They were just unfortunate that the Imperials were able to get their AT-AT's through (they lost a few of them to the terrain before the battle).

get the vhs collector's tin box set, it has just a lightsaber on the covers of each film and comes with the full scripts

>>4139

>>4143

>>4147

>>4157

it doesn't matter what version of the film exists, it's still star wars a new hope and fox owns that for infinity, disney would have to cut a deal with them for any new release.

>>4157

He was bullshitting, there is no way he had the original film masters destroyed.

>>4158

They would only have to cut a deal with Fox if they wanted to give A New Hope another theatrical run. Anything else and Disney can do whatever it wants, as it just did by releasing Episode IV digitally last month.

>>4162

>He was bullshitting, there is no way he had the original film masters destroyed

I surely hope not. But they have perchance been purposefully "misplaced"

>>4158

>get the vhs collector's tin box set

I am most worried about the degradation of the media over time, and magnetic tape really does not have much longevity.

>>4166

Perhaps, not perchance

>>4166

>>4167

If they had just been "misplaced" Disney would have their hands on them now. Reason I find it impossible for the original masters to actually be gone is without them doing further re-releases would be pretty much impossible. Can't have a 4k remaster if you don't have the original film to scan. Though a 4k version of the PT would be impossible thanks to Episodes II&III being filmed on 1080p digital cameras. I would laugh so hard if they actually just release them horribly upscaled.

>>3845

Shadows of the Empire supports this claim, When Dash gives Luke the black robes stating that these are the clothes the Jedi once wore. Lucas changed it to the Tatooine robes because that's what people remember.

>>3957

Star Wars was a mistake

>>3341

one IG-88, not one IG droid you dunce.

>>3341

>>3339

IG-88 was "killed" by Dash Rendar in non canon SoTE franchise.

Even if you were to call that canon it left a bunch of doors for a revival either way.

>>3355

dash didn't kill off all of them, just one of them. two were killed by fett and the main one got into the death star mainframe.

however, none of that is canon anymore and there is officially only one IG-88 now.

>>3341

that's an IG-86 droid, a predecessor of IG-88

>>3209

He was built some 4000 years before Ep. IV.

None canon, just like the rest of EU.

But it's better now.

Because there are more blacks.

>>4032

They'd never do something that interesting.

The show is about squeezing shekels out of kids so they have to keep all the main characters around to sell the action figures of them.

>>4032

then how about that line about luke being the last of the jedi?

is that another point of view thing ?

>>4092

because all other jedi at that point were dead or in hiding

or operating solo like ezra will probably be

>>4094

thats just bullshit,it makes the OT be meaningless if it tuns out there were other jedi that decided to just do nothing, that just makes obi wan an even bigger liar .

>>4096

… or obi-wan and yoda had no idea they were still alive?

>>4038

Which would work like for 5 seconds.

Yes anons it's retarded.

Pity that the premise is a mobile game though. Would be interesting to have an XCOM style game playing as Rebels, or even playing as Imperials desperate to suppress Rebels.

All the games are canon now right?

>>4044

idk, might not be like in Lucasarts days where every game was somehow canon.

>>4046

everything disney releases is canon

so far the only thing denied canon is that south korean comic about luke

>>4068

Just to add - the stylistic grading options on a RAW image blows the hell out of your typical video recording. You can tweak a video recording, but when you're working with RAW you can pull out amazing color depth that is actually real, as real as what film stock captures (except you can't touch it).

>>4068

>>4069

Everything I can find about the camera used to film Episode II says it only captured 1080p with a 4:2:2 colorspace.

I also think you are somewhat misunderstanding how RAW formats work, it is just unprocessed data from the camera's image sensor. I've worked with RAW image files before in photo editing and I'm pretty sure the resolution is set in stone. Of course I might be wrong, and I'm sure whatever tools and programs they have for editing RAW stuff on a big budget movie blows anything consumer level out of the water.

>>4063

You know it could have worked. I mean the colours in an entirely different movie. By a different director. In a different scenario. With %80 different cast.

>>4074

I'm not a pro photographer but I own a Red One 4k movie camera. I remember having to argue with a First AC who wanted to change the ISO setting for each shot, and trying to tell him how the ISO doesn't effect the RAW image and not to fucking touch it because it will create headaches in post production.

Anyway, when Phantom Menace came out, Rick McCallum was campaigning to get theaters to install 4k projectors since they shot SW at 4k. I'll see if I can find a video of him talking about it.

As most modern 35mm digital cameras have the option to shoot in RAW, it's really the same with the Red camera except it captures frame by frame. The Red's sensor is 12 mega pixels to achieve 4k, but that can be dropped down to 1k or 2k.

I'm not an expert on the RAW image, my understanding comes from learning how to use the Red and then sitting through post production and listening to those guys. There's so much to learn and it kinda makes my head spin.

>>4074

I'm mistaken. You're right. It was actually AOC and it was 1080p they shot at. That's when McCallum was going around trying to get *2*k projectors into theaters, not 4k. It was so long ago I lumped it all together with 4k. Sorry bout that.

assuming midichlorians are a dominant trait, fuckwit

>>4005

What makes you think that SJWs wouldn't prevent this? We could be the ultimate race of force wielding badasses, but because that gives "privilege" then they must be killed. Stop Jedi Genocide.

how about just more star wars nip shots?

>>4018

I'm game with that!

>>3959

yep, not only a jew but a jew with military training

The mandalores would rn around raping everyone

>>4009

[oya intensifies]

As someone with some measure in saber-sparring, a hilt that large is a very attractive target for your opponent, and I doubt that thing was made from cortosis.

The ring is also easy to get a hold of and pull the sword away from you.

4/10 would use.

>>817

Are dark jedis permitted?

>>3885

sure, why not?

>>3912

is it me or is she coming out of a yt-2400?

>>3941

They won't do it. She's black and the social justice media would accuse Solo or the writers of being racists or sexists.

>>3982

He's lucky the window didn't break.
