There are mouth-pieces on here in other places, they’re allowed.
Also Jar-Jar is the only character that allowed me to enjoy the movie.
@kircher
Idiotic as in Disney trying to tell me that this certain sequence of events happened and that all these other events (That add to the main one) are completely meaningless.
On that spoilered part: Ouch.
But the rest of it? I get what you’re saying, I can take snippets of some songs out and build something awesome with them without the rest. Or I can interpret a song in another way than the writer intended.
You’re right, it’s headcanon. Who cares? If I don’t accept everything that Lucas or Disney says as fact and I choose to accept or discard certain things, that’s my right. Or is Disney now going to come and repossess all my Star Wars stuff now? Canon only matters to the creators, and I’m sure you have noticed that both Lucas and Disney pretty much make it up as they go along. Fuck both of ’em. Hard,
Not trying to start an argument, and I’m not aiming this at you, but I really hate when people start ranting about “well this isn’t official canon.” Unless you are helping make the show/movie/book/toy, it has no relevance. Neither Lucas’ senile self nor Disney’s corporate garbage can control what I accept as my own canon. Rant over. :)
No, that’s very much what canon doesn’t mean. That’s fanon.
Yeah, I’m listening to Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart” and I still see good in the way I interpret it.
Disney may own the franchise now, but whatever they say is canon means absolutely nothing to me. Canon is what each person interprets, not whatever corporation defines it as.
So, how’s that?
@Revan0123
Idiotic in what way?
Well considering Disney are now ruling out all books, comics and video games (Basically saying that only the movies and show counts), looks the idea that they were ‘taught’ the orders has also been thrown into the rubbish bin.
Looks like they just wants us to believe that they will be mindless slaves of The Emperor (Which I find completely idiotic)
Thinking of sleeping. I really should since it’s post-1 AM here.
I haven’t listened to much of what Brian Setzer has played outside of the Stray Cats yet, except for what songs are in Crazy Taxi 3.
That’s not the only instance where record labels were pushing an image. Virgin Records suggested to the band XTC to go on stage like ZZ Top with lightning bolt-facial paint. (?)
Like I said before, he’s the least of Episode 1’s problems. He’s a symptom of a larger problem.
I think the Cats were an OK band, but the Fifties greaser image was really pushed by their record label to a ludicrous extreme. Setzer’s solo stuff is good, though–he definitely has respect for the history of rock and its origins.
(One compilation album of the Stray Cats.)
Now I’m reminded of the Stray Cats. I didn’t end up getting into them as much as the Jets, The Stray Cats seem more into the external image than the music to me. But I did only listen to one “Best Of” CD so far.
Exactly. Hadn’t thought of the Flat Duo Jets in a long time–forgot how good they were. One of the good bands that manages to play good ol’ rockabilly instead of becoming psychobilly caricatures.
Also, Yeah. Some videos like The Bee Gees’ “Alone” music video do look dated now.
And “Rarity Fighting A Giant Crab” would fit in with that Mysterious Island pic.
Not sure what to say yet. But is anyone ever sure until they just start typing? I don’t think there’s a reason to grill him (an accurate unkind term for what I’m thinking) but… Well if I ever watch the movies again I’ll have something to think about.
@kircher
Kinda like a cheap music recording with meaning rather than “Let’s make some money in this expensive recording and pretend we have meaning with our mask” pop music? It’s like the Minutemen, the Flat Duo Jets and the Mummies compared to some pop star.
Old movies always appeal to me, especially old sci-fi films. I’d take stop motion over CGI any day, though I can appreciate CGI, too (when it’s well done, not those crappy SyFy Channel films, and not overdone to the point of incomprehensibility, like Transformers). I just think it’s overused and become a lazy crutch for some filmmakers. It’s funny that some of the earliest films that used computer graphics look as quaint as stuff like Mysterious Island (a movie I really like, though the giant chicken was a bit much). It is a matter of appreciating films for what they are and the timeframe they were in.
Someone please shoop Rarity into that photo, too!
He’s just a comedy relief character meant to entertain the kiddies. He’s not funny at all, but then again he’s not designed to be funny for anybody over the age of five.
What a name.
On-topic of Jar Jar Binks, I haven’t seen the three prequels for a while but I have no idea why people hate him. Hey, I liked the first prequel that day that I first saw it though I had little idea of what was happening. I also liked seeing the second one, at the time it was amazing me to see all that CGI.
On subject of movies aging, some of them do have an appeal like aged wine or old cars. Sure you can see how some of these were made but here’s one example from the 1961 Mysterious Island movie, of the Giant Crab scene:
I imagine my reactions to the second Star Wars prequel are similar to those of my Dad when he saw Ray Harryhausen movies in theatres in the 1960s.
OK, my reading comprehension skills need work; from the last paragraph of the Order 66 order on Wookieepedia:
“It has often been unknown whether or not Order 66 was “programmed” into the Clones or if the Orders were taught to all Clones. Karen Traviss’s Republic Commando novels have mentioned that the Contingency Orders were taught and not programmed, resulting in several clones ignoring the order and/or refusing to go through with it outright, even “normal” (that is,a non Commando, ARC, or any other special forces Clone) clones such as RC-5108/8843 “Corr”. The novel Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader also supports this, as Ion Team refused to execute the Order, and went rogue. However, the Sixth Season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars has revealed that the Contingency Orders are indeed (supposedly) planted in the minds of all Clone Troopers during their development via an organic biochip, that subconsciously activates the Orders when given. An explanation of this has yet to be determined.”
OK, that makes me feel better and defuses my beef to a large extent. Sorry for the geeking out :)
I agree, but I don’t think it was ever mentioned in any of the films. Maybe one of the novels, but my fancruft filter is broken and I don’t feel like sifting through it. A quick check of Wookieepedia shows it was a written order only, not a brain implant or anything like that. I guess one could stretch and make it a commentary on soldiers and “orders are orders,” but I still think it’s just laziness. The Star Wars universe is certainly not one known for cohesion in its canon. Hard to do with anything unless you are Straczynski and write five seasons of scripts in advance.
Sounds like the kind of thing you would do to secure a clone army.
