I did like seeing the dark side shades in Anakin. Keeping a Jedi away from his senator nookie is dangerous to anyone's health. My only question is wouldn't Tech and Echo be kind of a duplication of function?

Now, that's a name I've not heard in a long time. Before the dark times... before the M*pire. * M = Mouse

Sequel trilogy? What are you talking about? Luke married a hot Force-wielding redhead, re-established the Jedi Order, and had a kid.

Just add salt and lime, it makes the Corona a little more tolerable

That’s why ya gotta bag ‘em up.

So, I wound up going through all of Season 3 last night. Can something be so freakin’ good . . . and a bit too much at the same time? Even considering the past two seasons, Season 3 can be too gratuitous at times (in more ways than just the goriness). And depending on your sensibilities and tastes, it can be a bit much. But damn is the character work off the charts here! Much like Season 2, this season starts off slow then gets crazy closer towards the end. But I honestly didn’t mind the leisurely pace of the beginning. It gave the characters a chance to breathe and just be. The character work and “quieter” moments this season were nice ways to give depth to most of the characters. I know Isaac is a villain with an insane goal, but all the foils he gets to interact with really elevated his story arc. Gonna be an interesting Season 4.

Honestly, I’m intrigued and curious to see how this all pans out. Been really wanting a detective Batman film for awhile now. Other than having too many villains in the film, nothing that’s been revealed has been outright horrible (ala the first iteration of live action Sonic the Hedgehog). So far, I’m willing to give this Batman a shot.

Doubt it. Everyone seems to be pointing that this will be a detective noir film. We already got the femme fatale in Selina Kyle. We’ll probably have a gunsel henchman that roughs up and gets ultimately beaten by Bats. And I wouldn’t be surprised if we get a few scenes that play with light and shadows and are filled to the brim with wisps of smoke, interplaying with the lighting. And if Pattinson starts riffing soliloquys and monologues in a Humphrey Bogart voice, we’ll know for certain they went full tilt on the noir aspects.

Seriously, Rian Johnson should have had Luke drop hints about why he doesn’t want to train Rey, keep mentioning how his dad fell to the dark side, and then throw the “subverting expectations” twist by having Luke say he ISN’T Rey’s father.

The hardest task for these writers and creators can be summed up as such: being respectful while not being a rehash or a worse replacement. No matter how much they try to deny it, their work is gonna be compared to/scrutinized against all the already existing films, the Filoni animated stuff, the Gennedy T. stuff, the EU, and all the other media and video games that came before. And if it replaces anything from these various sources, it needs to be “better” than what came before. Throw in the usual continuity and consistency issues with such a long-lived franchise, and you can see the huge challenge they face.

Considering none of the live action Batman films have really shown much of his World’s Greatest Detective aspects, I’m curious to see how this film pulls it off, as well as its more noir take.

There’s a billion things annoying about that birthing scene. But I wouldn’t have minded if Leia was born first. It’d still be a stretch, but at least Leia’s “memories of mom” speech in ROTJ would have made more sense (latent Force ability in baby, more time with Momma Padme than Luke, etc.). Regarding that brainstorm board, I’d be the a-hole that would erase a chunk of the board and write “FOLLOW KOTOR’S LEAD/EXAMPLE!!”
-
Doesn’t that pretty much match Bandai’s plans to make us buy multiples and milk the mold for all it’s worth?
-
The only thing is that no one has ever done a true TV version Roy VF-1S in 1/48 scale.
-
Wanna really piss off the KOTOR sect, tell ‘em Revan came up with the chosen one prophecy! Now excuse me, as I kick myself for throwing that Pandora’s box dumb idea out there.

I think my questions still stand: the fears these Jedi will face are the same ones we’ve seen in the past (in films, shows, books, and comics). About the only new wrinkle/“fear” you can add is the fear of these Wild West Jedi marshals losing their autonomy. I can see some Outer Rim Jedi (trying to keep the peace) getting annoyed with a stuffy Jedi Council, sitting in its ivory temple and trying to impose its impractical or downright clueless policies and requirements. Basically, trying to get the job done versus making sure you’re in compliance with the Jedi-equivalent of an Office Space TPS report.

Works for me! Wouldn’t mind an extra non-helmeted version for both Hik’ and Misa too. No question that the health concerns take priority. But I hope the economic impact is just limited to delays with these toys, rather than smaller toy companies closing up shop entirely. Slightly off-topic: I guess any time a toy company reveals a prototype for Mospeada’s Houquet in her Ride Armor, I should start preparing for an economic downturn.
-
I’d even take TV Skull-1 with three pilot figures: Roy, Hik’, and Hik’ w/Misa.

Poor Rex: The losses of his brothers keeps mounting, and he has give up his helmet for Anakin’s . . . umm . . . booty calls. Guess we can also give Obi-Wan a new nickname: Kencockblocker. Other than the amusing bits above, this ep was kinda too by the numbers for my taste. Hopefully, it wraps up by next episode. Need to get to Order 66.

Can we also get a leg art decal/sticker of Minmay rocking Misa’s hairbuns?
-
Is Obi gonna start talkin' like John Wayne? Or will he channel his inner Rooster Cogburn and start exaggerating his exploits to the nearest Sand People around?

So, to summarize the Kakizaki part of this thread:

If you do that to a Toynami, then YCAPS .N .U would have to be Robotech-ified: ”You Can Access Protoculture Stuff. Near. Underside.” @wmkjr, stop mirror-imaging the Hasecadiawavtoynamdai 1A!
