Watched the Gallery last night. You guys are nuts if you think there won't be a second episode all about recreating Luke as well as the music contributions.
And the thing is, we're more than 20 years out from the Phantom Menace and the faux outrage of original fans playing the "you ruined my childhood" card. We're now on a 2nd or 3rd wave of clickbait artists just constantly trying to gin up outrage towards anything they can find. Are they really fans? If so, of what?TCTTS said:
All I know is that if I had to deal with Star Wars fans shouting at me online all day every day for years on end, warranted or not, I would probably lose my mind, and show far less restraint than Hidalgo ever has. I give everyone involved in this scenario, on both sides, the benefit of the doubt.
Right but it will still put a cap (or ceiling) on where the story can ultimately go. And it's going to get tiresome trying to retcon an Obi wan story, and Ahsoka story, a Luke Jedi temple story, etc to narratively fit inside this ~40-50 year window in a way that doesn't feel contrived.TCTTS said:
The sequel trilogy is still, like, 20 years away in-universe. To that end, I think all they're going to do in this era of shows, at most, is set up the First Order in some form or fashion, and that's about it. I still think they have quite a bit of freedom to play around and go in a unique, never-before-seen direction.
Bring on Revan, and Darth BaneM.C. Swag said:Right but it will still put a cap (or ceiling) on where the story can ultimately go.

Like, it's not sustainable to keep playing in this sandbox. At some point, they MUST move off the skywalker timeline (if for no other reason than to give themselves narrative freedom). I think alot of viewers (including myself) are ready for a new order of jedi/sith conflict that isn't focused on any of the previous trilogies.

Already done. Prequels too. As far as I'm concerned they are justfan fiction.
They already are with the High Republic stuff. For the stuff they've done up until now, it's a lot easier to build upon the established timeline than create something brand new, which was a lot of the problem with the way they rushed the sequel trilogy. I think moving past this current slate of shows, we're going to see a lot more stuff outside the skywalker eraM.C.

Chandrila legalized it, man.
They're starting with books and comics, and one of the series they announced will take place in the time period. Takes place about 200 years before the skywalker stuffM.C. Swag said:
What's the high republic stuff?
