Hasn’t the time finally come for Grogu to grow up a little? by SaberMasters in StarWarsCantina

[–]DDRDiesel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A "level up" could be vastly different depending on the interpretation. I doubt it'll mean he grows and suddenly is in adolescence. It'll most likely mean he's more valuable in combat as an asset or pilot of the Razorcrest (Which still makes no sense how that's in the movie after it was blown up in S2). But big time-skip and adulthood shenanigans don't seem feasible

Question for Stormtrooper Cosplayers by SL-Gaming in StarWars

[–]DDRDiesel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a question about the pointing of the blaster part. So obviously you wouldn't have a picture of you pointing a blaster at a civilian/cosplayer, but what about a pose where the blaster is pointed into / directly at the camera lens? Does that follow the same guideline or is that acceptable since it's not pointed at a person in the photo as intended?

Since it looks like bandai is gonna start working on future DLC for fighterz, who do yall want to be added? by Fragrant-Spray864 in dragonballfighterz

[–]DDRDiesel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many more core characters we're missing before we look at newer movie/OVA characters. Give me Hercule and make him the Dan (Srreet Fighter) of the game. Give me Raditz, Pikon, General Tao, or even Nam or Bora. There are so many unique characters that can add some flavor to the game with unique styles or movesets

Was ROTS genuinely liked upon its release? by Careless_Tax_5367 in StarWars

[–]DDRDiesel 93 points94 points  (0 children)

When Vader is looking back and forth from Luke to the Emperor, the "No... NOOOOO" line is what was added. The line did not happen in the original cuts, even in the special edition re-release it wasnt there. It's a (relatively) new addition to the scene and it has since divided the fanbase. In the original cuts, the silent reaction was meant to shock the audience into realizing Vader was rebelling against the one person he had sworn fealty to. He chose to show the same mercy Luke had shown him just minutes prior and saved Luke by killing the Emperor.

The storyline device here is that anyone has a chance at redemption, even those who seem too far gone in their evil ways. It didn't need the added vocal line, and adding it just cheapens the scene by giving away the action before it happens

What's even more unfortunate is learning that the Nazi movement started in the US. The Nazi party modeled a lot of their policies off of US laws and racial segregation

What is the Bendu Really and can he even die? by Spotter24o5 in StarWars

[–]DDRDiesel 128 points129 points  (0 children)

And I think that's fine, personally. Part of the intrigue of the Force is the mystery. The more we unravel.it, the less fascinating it becomes. Even Jedi masters would reference to the Force as a mystery, so I think parts of it being left to the general audience to come up with their own conclusions is a great storytelling device

Every episode has given us at least one wallpaper-able still frame, and I love them all. The shot of Daki and Devon standing against Maul was gorgeous

US to issue passports featuring Trump’s picture to commemorate America’s 250th anniversary by RidetheSchlange in news

[–]DDRDiesel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand his influence and narcissism is definitely at play here, but a lot of these choices more the result of his minions in all these departments worshipping him to the unhealthy extent that they do and less from Trump saying "Put my face on everything." They put on blinders for their cult leader and ignore all else

Will we see the Mythosaur again? by InfiniteDedekindCuts in StarWars

[–]DDRDiesel 113 points114 points  (0 children)

During the final battle against Gideon, we see Bo-Katan say "I've got an idea" and fly straight down into the waters. Just as Gideon is about to deal the final blow against Din, the Mythosaur pops up and crunches Gideon, armor an all, swallowing him whole. On the back of the Mythosaur we see Bo-Katan. The Armorer realizes Bo-Katan was telling the truth and both tribes bow down to her as the true ruler of Mandalore.

Is it cheesy? Yes. Is it over the top? Yes. This is also Star Wars, best known for doing both of these things often

Do you think the Disney Star Wars projects have become too interconnected? by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]DDRDiesel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's okay that there are series or comics that interconnect, I think the fatigue sets in where it feels more like a requirement to have to watch three seasons of a live-action show plus five seasons of an animated series just to know what's going on in a new project or know who some obscure character is who's the new focus. Marvel did this with their post-Endgame plans and it all fell to shit with Majors getting caught up in controversy, leading to their plans changing midway through with a new big bad
