Topic	What would've happened if Yoda and the council said no to Obi Wan about Anakin?
BruceWayneJr 02/12/18 2:03:50 AM #14	RebelElite791 posted... BruceWayneJr posted... "Rando alt"? lol, wtf? Paranoid much? And yeah, that is how it works. KotOR still exists because nothing's contradicted it. The Clone Wars still exists because nothing's contradicted. The Darth Plagueis novel still exists because nothing has been overwritten. As soon as those things are overwritten, that becomes the new canon. I assume you're an alt as I've never seen you and you don't know who you're talking to apparently. That is not how canon works. The only canon is The OT, the PT, TCW movie and show, Son of Dathomir, and (almost) everything from 2014 onwards. KOTOR is not canon. Plagueis novel is not canon. As of April 25, 2014, the only previously published materials that are considered canon are the six Star Wars films, the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series and film, and the stand-alone Dark Horse Comics arc Star Wars: Darth MaulSon of Dathomir. Meanwhile, the Expanded Universe is no longer considered canon and was re-termed as the "Legends" brand. Most Star Wars material released after April 25, 2014with some exceptionsis composed in collaboration with the Lucasfilm Story Group, making it part of the "new canon." So basically shut the fuck up. Ha, go fuck yourself, message board celebrity. The Clone Wars builds off of stuff like the Darth Plagueis novel and fucking KotOR. You can pretend one exists independently of the other if you want to, but the elements are still there. --- He might be the president, but it's not his country.

Could events have happened like they did in KoToR and the Plagueis novel? Yes, because nothing contradicts it yet, but that doesnt make it canon. They belong to the Extended Universe, which is not canon. Wtf does Word of God mean? Get real. Large swaths of the original EU hasn't been touched yet by Disney. Until that happens, it's fair game. Otherwise, show me this Word of God that proves otherwise. --- He might be the president, but it's not his country.

BruceWayneJr 02/12/18 1:40:49 AM #32	The idea that the prequels are objectively bad and everyone acknowledges it is just a waste of fucking time, but if that's the only way you can defend the Disney flicks, I understand why you have to do it. --- He might be the president, but it's not his country.

BruceWayneJr 02/12/18 1:36:00 AM #7	It's nice to see how much thought you've put into it, Distant_Rainbow. I'm a pretty big fan of the pre-Disney EU and folks tend to give it less weight than others, so you can take it or leave it, but some of it fleshes out how deep Sidious's plans are. As far as Palps and Ani goes, we're told that Sidious and Plagueis are made aware of Anakin's existence, his massive presence in the force, but Sidious doesn't encounter it until the end of TPM (Plagueis had already been murdered by that point). So I agree, Sidious would probably seek him out to capitalize on his power whether he was with the Jedi or not. Obi-Wan pledged to Qui-Gon while he was near death that he would train Anakin. Just as well, Yoda feels an obligation to his old apprentice and that influenced his decision to let Obi-Wan go along with Qui-Gon's wishes. There's an EU comic (released by Disney) where Anakin expresses his desire to quit, and Obi-Wan tells Yoda that he would be obligated to follow Anakin and train him outside of the Jedi Order. "Extreme loyalty" is one of the themes of Star Wars and I think true blue Obi would have stuck to it no matter what. From what we know of Darth Maul's background, he was snatched up as a child by Sidious, kept isolated and alone, and trained in the Sith ways behind the scenes while Palpatine was playing Naboo senator. I think Anakin would have suffered roughly the same fate, and his anger, alienation and lack of agency would have grown much in the same way that Maul's did. He would have become a lapdog much sooner than how he ended up in the OT and I don't think Padme would have entered into it at all. Sidious used their relationship to grow Anakin's dark side because he couldn't fully dominate the boy while he was with the Jedi. If he was training him directly, he could take a more direct approach. Dooku was being "worked" by Palpatine before and during the events of TPM, and he already used him to murder the Jedi who commissioned the clone army and take over the project for themselves. Order 66 was in the works before Anakin entered the picture, and I think Sidious would have pulled it off later regardless of Ani's involvement. With the Jedi thrown into the middle of war and tethered to all the dicey decisions of Palpatine's republic, he could have framed them any number of ways. You're right in the end though; without Luke and Leia, the galaxy would be totally fucked in the OT. --- He might be the president, but it's not his country.

BruceWayneJr 02/12/18 12:46:02 AM #3	I guess they would have dumped the kid off back with his mom and Sidious would eventually get a completely different apprentice. Or Sidious would scoop him up and train him in secret. --- He might be the president, but it's not his country.
Topic	who else here thinks Attack of the Clones was better than any Disney Star Wars
BruceWayneJr 02/12/18 12:42:16 AM #22	desuno-to posted... TPM was memorable for me almost solely because of the duel. Not just the action, but the music. "Duel of the Fates" was epic. Dare I say on par with the main theme. Can you name one new song since TPM (including TLJ) that was nearly as memorable? Well I can, because the music in all of the prequels is phenomenal. Across the Stars, Anakin's Dark Deeds, Battle of the Heroes (always reminds me of KotOR), Birth of the Empire... With the Disney stuff, the passion for Williams just isn't there, and the lack of planning by the producers means that he can't build on ideas towards a natural end. --- He might be the president, but it's not his country.

This isnt a very difficult concept, so Im not sure why youre struggling to understand it. Gun control is restricting people's access to guns. That's... exactly what "taking muh guns" is. You cant seriously believe this. Adding some minor restrictions to buying guns is not even close to taking them away. You tinfoil hat types act as if thats somehow equivalent to the government kicking your door in and taking your guns by force. And they push that dumb shit because they know it will distract from real solutions. They don't want ANY new legislation, so they pretend that the extremes are the only options. --- He might be the president, but it's not his country.

BruceWayneJr 02/11/18 8:37:59 PM #7	Guess what: Most of the country supports more gun control, especially now that we get a new mass shooting every two weeks. That's practical of course, but right wing nut jobs yell and scream about some extreme conspiratorial nonsense and that diverts the conversation away from anything that could possibly be practical. So yeah, Obama wanted to tighten up on gun laws and had the majority of Americans behind him, but instead of doing ANYTHING, we have to play around with the bleating garbage coming from the right. --- He might be the president, but it's not his country.
