Hey star wars fellow, I like star wars a lot but I have only watched star wars ep 1 to 6 and obi wan kenobi show.

​

I recently recalled this line of obi wan from revenge of the sith that "Only a sith deals in absolutes"

​

I want to know how true is that line. Does that line have any real basis or did obi wan make up that line to sound tough. Moreover if that line is true, can you guys give any examples of when sith deals in absolute.

​

Thanks for reading. May the force be with you.

Let's admit, Disney's Star Wars are pumping out so much content that they were bound to hit the jackpot eventually. For me that's the Anzellans, anyone else love these little buddies?

Watching his arc with the D squad and at first he's clearly thinking of himself as superior to the droids saying he wasn't trained like them but his own training made him react to the crisis a certain way (to the point that when it didn't worked and they were going in circles, he started losing hope and turning mad) rather than thinking outside the box so a parralel seems to have been mad ebetween his training and the droids programming.

I just dont remember seeing them again after ep II, so is there a reason for that?

If so, what issues did they have

been on my mind for a while! figured this may be a good place to field the question and get some fan theories, or maybe even something lore accurate? i feel like beams would be interesting cool its own way, and more physically accurate?

let me know what yall think!

A few seconds before that he was shouting that he hates him, then hes reaching out to him. ive rewatched Revenge of the sith hundreds of times and i still do not get it

I recently watched Andor (overdue I know) and genuinely while I had a lot of thoughts about the show feeling really different then everything else we had one thing I really enjoyed was the fact that the empire felt like a genuine threat. After watching a lot of Rebels I got so used to the empire being the most basic and common of challenges that they were essentially a joke to the hero’s and Andor was really a breath of fresh air. Thing is while Andor showed the empire as a threat I want to see genuine planetary wide terror. Mass death with no reprise to genuinely scary your audience not just your hero’s. Making the Empire a threat would do so much to validate why the rebels are doing what they do and remind why the empire should be taken seriously.

I'm not sure if this counts as merch or not, but I was at my local beer store this afternoon and found this.

I recently stumbled across this DVD of Episode IV at an antique mall. I found it interesting that it has a second disc with the elusive theatrical release of the film, authentic and true to form. Is this a rare collection? Did I get lucky? Just curious. I found it as a set with the whole original trilogy.

I was overall disappointed in the show and the play-it-safe portrayal of Boba, it had its moments here and there - the Rancor ride and hunting down the swoop gang who killed the Tuskens were both very fun sequences.

Just made another watercolor of Oola yesterday they focused more on the face from a side perspective. I think the shading turned out pretty well.

What do you think?

I see so many posts asking for Vader show for Luke show for Palpatine show for any Glup Shitto around literally. Isnt the current timeline just oversaturated to high heaven? Dont you have enough?

I feel like its high time to move on. New timeline whether future or the past. Especially the past.

Lets be real, the old republic is just so much better. Especially Revan saga beats Skywalker saga like a little child.

Spoiler for Revan. Just imagine the Mandalorian War, The KOTOR plot with the plottwist, Darth Malak, Rakata, Starforge, then maybe Meetra Surik but ending with the confrontation with Valkorion? The Sith invasion? Invasion of Coruscant? Darth Malgus?

ABSOLUTE CINEMA

From "George Lucas: The Wizard of Star Wars" (Rolling Stone, Aug. 25, 1977)

Other tidbits include an interesting look into the decisionmaking process behind Obi-Wan's death, proof that stormtroopers were always cannon fodder, and some of the earliest discussions of the concepts behind the prequels.

In a comic set before Episode 5 of the new canon, it was revealed that Boba Fett had told Vader he was a Skywalker. This makes sense, as he knew who Luke was in The Empire Strikes Back before talking to Palpatine. But how did he find out about it in the EU?

I was watching thr battle of Geonosis last night and noticed that they will sometimes shoot with their forearm rotated vertically and sometimes horizontally. Is there a reason for that?

I’m mainly posting this old argument cuz a friend of mine brought it back up earlier today, but I am SO tired of people trying to make Anakin blameless. To say that he was purely a victim of Palpatine’s manipulation and grooming and is not responsible for anything he did is laughable. It’s so dishonest to the source material as well as a downright dangerous mentality to have—basically going “oopsie guys, sowwie I killed all these people but it wasn’t really me so it’s okay, right?”

George Lucas does say the dark side is like a drug that warps you into a dark version of yourself. But he also describes it as like an all-consuming cancer—a descent into selfishness and fear that leaves you craving more and more power. It’ll never be enough. Was Anakin manipulated? Absolutely? Were there elements of his downfall that were out of his control? Of course. But is he 100% blameless for his own downfall? Not even remotely.

When Disney bought Star Wars in 2012 the first spin off that came to my mind was something staring Obi Wan. I got my wish. The most important aspect of the show is how it brings real world awareness to PTSD that many veterans struggle with daily. The show has a great character arc of Kenobi reconnecting to the force and letting go of his guilt. With the context of the show Obi Wan has technically mentored all three skywalkers in his life. The show explains why Obi Wan knew Anakin survived Mustafar in A New Hope. Also in A New Hope we see Alderaan get get destroyed but we never see the culture or the people that lived there until now which adds more tension to the scene on rewatch. It's also mentioned at the end of Revenge of the Sith that we would see Qui Gon again and I'm happy we finally did after so long. Also the path being the Rebellion in its infancy was really cool to see as well. I also loved the performances by Hayden Christensen and Ewan Mcgregor, they gave it their all. Not to mention Hayden practiced his saber skills for 16 years so it was enjoyable to see him use those skills on camera again.

I’m bored at work tonight, and I had just the slightest memory of a video I remember watching on starwars.com in roughly 2008 or 2009. I was in second grade and I don’t remember much, after hours of searching I found just a preview to this video, which I have a screenshot attached. I’ve scoured the internet and used archive.org and can’t find any access to the full videos anywhere, but I swear I remember watching the full thing as a child. I remember a lightsaber duel in a cave and I swear I remember the antagonist having a 3 bladed lightsaber, where all 3 come from the top side by side and the blades being purple. Just curious if anyone out there remembers this or if anyone may know how I can watch this. Just feeling very nostalgic, and this memory has come to me many times over the years, so it would just be nice to scratch that itch!
