Star Wars Discussion Thread Canon/Legends- Episode V Attack of the Fanons

[Abu2411]

Revenge of the Sith was awesome.

But just one more teeny tiny thing. Can we use canon sourcebooks like Nexus of Power? Because that references the events of Tales of the Jedi, specifically Naga Sadow's star busting feat.

"The Qel-Droma Epics claim Ossus was a Jedi retreat and knowledge repository, decimated when Sith Lord Naga Sadow triggered stars in the nearby Cron Cluster to become supernovae. Death and destruction washed over Ossus, leaving a barren and scarred world." -(Nexus of Power pg. 64)

 

[ByAsura]

Yes, we can use guide books. He used the Corsair for that feat and not his own power, though.

Can't wait till the downgrades happen. Star wars vs kung fu panda will be legendary.

This should be good.

This should be good.

This promotion happened last year, and I remember talking about it on the old forum. The website just updated his databank entry recently. Funnily enough, there is a news article that says exactly this. I believe it's on Variety.

In any case, this actually bothers me. It's mostly because the guy has enough on his plate already. I just hope he doesn't get burned. I also sincerely hope he doesn't get the job of head of Lucasfilm as a whole, as many misguided fans want. That would be bad for a few reasons.

The one upside to this is that we have the closest thing to Lucas himself as head of content at Lucasfilm.

Also,
This could mean more wolf-related symbolism in Star Wars

And I can't wait for the 9-B/9-A upgrades to the "peak human" characters. Then may be we can see proper Star Wars vs Halo Elite/Spartan match-ups that don't involve Force users.

Hearing this makes me imagine Yoda and Oogway enjoying each other’s company in the spirit realm quite a blessed thought.

I like it when peak human characters are, you know, actual peak humans. That's one of the reasons why I like legends, they really are just regular guys without the force.

I have little to no issues with fictional characters that are peak human in their fictional universe that would actually be superhuman in real life. It's a common trope in all fiction.

And it's not like Legends doesn't have its share of superhuman "peak humans". Their are peak human characters in Legends with 9-B physical feats and superhuman reactions.

If they're aliens like wookies I don't mind them being superhuman. It's just a pet peeve of mine because when I was a kid I saw batman reacting to bullets and stuff and I was really sad because I couldn't be batman

Aww, poor baby.

 

[Soldier_Blue]

Anyone else here hoping to see Delta Squad in Bad Batch? I know it won't happen, but I'd be damn glad if it did.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

yup

Finished into the dark and it was alright
def one of Claudia's weakest.

War of the Bounty Hunters off to a great start. Haven't been this excited about Star Wars comics in a while.

 

[Abu2411]

Remember when I talked about force users surviving in space briefly? Legends takes it even further beyond.

[Shadowbokunohero]

I hold the Position that space in star wars isn't nearly as Lethal as real life space.

It's just an Ocean that has some spacy elements to it.

Space Ocean, Spocean.

 

[Abu2411]

There is no such thing as space though. The earth is infinite in size. NASA is a hoax and a puppet for the vampire lizards who are pushing their cultural Marxist post-modernism ideology to destroy western civilisation.

But didn't he have a space-suit for this?

This actually makes sense for Canon.

During the comic arc "The Last Flight of the Harbinger" Han & Leia manage to briefly survive (several seconds) in space with only oxygen masks on.

I don't think he had a space suit, but I can't remember.

On reading again, he explicitly says he sealed his flightsuit before ejecting.

I can' read. I'm illiterate.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

This is a bit off-topic but I've been working on a PC port for Revenge of the Sith game, this is mostly because the game was only released on PS2 and Xbox(oG) and emulators like PCSX2 still struggle to work completely, oftentimes having random slowdown, texture breaking and the most Obvious the whiplash you get from the Video cutscenes that render 286x360 and the gameplay which can be 1080p 60fp or higher. the only alternative Option is backwards compatibility via PS3 which itself is becoming a relic of time.

I'm hoping that with Lucasfilm games Publishing and Apsyr media porting classic games like Republic Commando and Jedi Outcast we could eventually see a proper ROTS port, Unfortunately ROTS game doesn't hold the same status as those games so I'm a bit doubtful, and as someone who cares about game preservation, this is the only thing I could think to do.

I'm crying in Macintosh right now.

Im being very Meta here, but Space would be the Ocean and the Planets Islands, mostly because star wars is inspired by old fashioned retro fiction that follow the “exotic” locations from a Romantic Age perspective.

Which is scarier, space or the deep ocean?

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

Which is scarier, space or the deep ocean?

depends.

 

[Soldier_Blue]

Yeah, it depends.

Being abandoned in deep ocean sounds scarier to me than being abandoned in deep space.

 

[Abu2411]

Fun question but what tiers would the Original Trilogy characters be in if we just take what they showed in those movies alone?

 

[ByAsura]

There's a Wall level+ feat with Stormtrooper blasters, which also reduced Owen and Beru to charred skeletons. Vader himself can reflect blaster shots powerful enough to crater walls. As for lifting strength, probably around Superhuman to Class 10 given Luke's rock lifting and Yoda's X-wing feat.

When you say OT characters, does that include prequel feats? If so, then we have Dooku breaking a ceiling/Yoda lifting that ceiling, and Obi-Wan/Qui-Gon blitzing Droidekas.

It's worth noting that Luke does this in TLJ.

I see, so jedi would be ordinary humans with wall level+ force powers?

 

[ByAsura]

If I'm not missing anything more impressive, and if Han's ESB blaster is equal to Stormtroopers (I'd say this is likely).

Also, Jedi are very well trained even without the Force. They're not exactly what you'd call normal humans, especially because many of them are aliens with superhuman strength.

 

[Abu2411]

Honestly that seems kinda cool. We read and see amazing feats that jedi are capable of doing, but seeing them as just ordinary humans with Superhuman force powers and some hax makes the Force seem more mystical and spiritual, rather than a DBZ power-up if you know what I mean.

 

[ByAsura]

As sort of an expansion on what I said on the previous post, even human Jedi are sort of like action movie heroes. You can say they're normal humans, but they also tank 3-storey falls and a few bullet wounds (or blaster wounds, in this case) without the Force. Of course, it depends on the plot, but plot armour is almost as common among Force Users as telekinesis.
