They’re not talking about the Leia Scene, but Holdo’s hyperspace one.

It’s going to happen at some point. I personally felt that it would have started this election cycle if Hillary won, but yes, I’m sure 2018 will see some smaller skirmishes ahead of a larger pattern of political violence in 2020. We’re just kicking the can down the road, not resolving any of the underlying hate and

I’m glad people are finally waking up to the fact that Rian was closing the lid on another empty JJ mystery box, not setting fire to some intricately planned foundation. :)

I only have one star to give, but I give it to thee.

Did you really need Emperor 2.0? Eliminating one of the OT reruns actually made me happy.

The origin of the First Order is largely covered in the Aftermath books and other material from the new EU. Snoke did not create the First Order, the question to ask is how he became its leader. The rest basically goes like this:

Absolutely agreed.

It’s worth mentioning that you can no longer spend a dime, so your point is moot. They removed the premium currency after the backlash. The progression was also changed. Still sucks, but far less than it did in the beta and launch week.

A disappointment to you, but thanks for speaking for all of us.

You’re absolutely wrong. Disney has been cherry-picking the EU and trying to rebuild a better continuity. Hell, we just got a new Zahn book about Thrawn that largely maintains his original backstory. Give it time.

Criterion actually did the starfighter battles in Battlefront 2, so they’ve already had their hands on the IP.

Years ago I was in a meeting with EA leadership where I presented first quarter revenue projections for my project and one of ‘em replied “I wouldn’t get out of bed for less than (twice the amount I projected).” So...yeah.

Sadly, almost all of the Republic Commando team was let go shortly after it was released, but there was actually early work done on Imperial Commando. Reading Rogue Leaders: The Story of LucasArts always breaks my heart.

Be careful what you wish for

Yes. It’s all about search engine optimization. Unlike other platforms where discovery isn’t such a huge obstacle, mobile game titles either a) tell you exactly what the game loop is (Flappy Bird) or b) are constructed to play off the names of Top 10 games (Clash of Insert Thing Here) in the hopes that you click on

The Death Star plans are one of the big rats nests of the old EU-

Poe doesn’t report to Holdo, and they don’t serve on the same ship. There’s only so much she can infer from a brief meeting during a battlefield promotion on the Raddus. But if all of that bugs you, more power to you.

You read into it what you want, but I think you’re vastly overstating the message of “blindly following leadership.” As you stated, this is about Poe’s journey from reckless hotshot to responsible leader.

She was first introduced earlier this year in the novel Leia, Princess of Alderaan. I would imagine she’ll turn up in the Marvel comics at some point, there are several windows of opportunity.

The shuttles would have been safe if DJ hadn’t betrayed them. Hux states that DJ revealed that cloaked shuttles were heading for the planet (he overheard this while Poe and Finn were talking). They scanned the area and Hux was surprised that DJ was telling the truth. Holdo didn’t have any control over that.
