It’s about the only thing they do right. Took the wife there for vday, the only thing that impressed me was the size of the bill. Would have been better to put the money into making something good at home.

HAHA! Bernie Panders! That’s really funny! Because you took his name and replaced it with something that sounds like it!

And as my personal head canon, the Republic was corrupt. I always misheard Clone Wars as Colonial Wars and thought it was the rich systems founding colonies out on the Rim and then fighting to keep control. When I realized my error I thought it was the bad guys using the clones. It being the Republic was stupid.

We should have met him at roughly the same age as Luke, a few years into the war.

Why didn’t he just move to West Virginia and marry here, then? Fer chrissakes....

The less presidentin’ he does, the less damage. It’s a win.

Yes, and they then changed it to the final good design.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, I’m sure he has an attachment for it under his codpiece. Calls it his probe droid.

Realistically, trying to depict futuristic digital graphics with contemporary technology would have busted their asses. Remember how cheesedick sooper-dooper computer graphics looked in 80's movies with all the wireframes? So they did the best they could do with contemporary technology. I do like that they maintained…

According to the games there’s something that covers the face when rebels eject. Realistically you don’t cover up the actor’s faces in a film unless they’re the baddies and are supposed to be faceless evildoers. Look at Top Gun. They’re taking off their oxygen masks every time they have a line. The MiG pilots are…

Got hit with those ion torps.

Big engines, would probably be like a tug boat. And the ISD was in no position to argue.

Yup. But then the invid did the Phoenix of light and all is good, no more robotech wars.

There was a lot of stuff worth dumping but they’re also junking stuff worth keeping. What bothers me is they don’t think things through like the armor. It’s garbage. Makes no sense. The kind of sci-fi I like is the stuff that makes more sense the more you think about it.

Same! Ben snuffing it blew me away. Also wiping out 99% of the human race. The shots were straight out of atomic bomb test footage.

Makes sense for the EU but it’s undercut by the films. In TFA poison gas can kill them so vacuum protection is obviously not happening. EU trooper armor sounded impressive.

Stormies are no better protected than the officers in cloth uniforms. And the helmets can’t filter out poisonous gas? What’s the point?

That doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. I mean it’s what you can guess at because the armor sucks but it doesn’t make sense.

Because they all got killed in Rogue One.
