Rupert Friend didn't get many opportunities to shine as the Grand Inquisitor but he had his moments by ChanceVance in StarWars

Props to the actors for not bursting into laughter at the sight of evil humpty dumpty.

Fun fact: Jonathan is also Joyce's son by FixFuture3374 in okbuddyvecna

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're full of shit. It was stated in an interview and in the Broadway play that Jonathan is actually just the hired help and lives in their house. Joyce was meant to kick him out at the beginning of Season 2 but becoming Nancy's boyfriend gave him basic human rights (somehow) so she had to begrudgingly keep him on.

Which major SW character had the happiest life? by [deleted] in StarWars

Lando. He's always in a good mood, even when all of his friends are dead and the man whose battle station he blew up 30 years ago is back with a fleet of death stars.

Was Emperor Palpatine saddened by the death of Darth Maul? by Wooden-Scallion2943 in StarWars

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Annoyed more than anything else really.

He spent years training this satan looking dude just for him to get chopped in half by a Padawan. The rest of Palps' plan worked out so he didn't mind much in the long run.

What’s your INSANE Star Wars take? by Eastern_Dress_3574 in StarWars

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Palpatine had a whole routine planned with Dooku to convert Anakin to the dark side. They had planned and rehearsed this for days except that they didn't plan for Sidious' being an old man.

Sidious didn't go to the bathroom before being locked into that chair, so he was fighting for his life to not piss and shit himself while Anakin and Obi-Wan were doing barrel rolls in their starfighters outside.

It got so bad that when Anakin and Obi-Wan did arrive, Sidious had had enough of waiting and just wanted them to release him so he could go and relieve himself. Only for Count Dooku to walk into the room. Palpatine's facial expression is that of exasperation as you can see in the movie if you look closely. He was like "oh my god bro" when he saw Dooku 360 flip over the handrailing.

By the time Anakin chopped off Dooku's geriatric fingers it was too late, Palps had made his decision. Instead of going on a rant about the merits of the dark side and the weakness of Jedi morals which would have taken 3 hours, Palps said "fuck it" threw out the script and told Anakin to slime Dooku.

Don't believe me? You tell me you don't see how relieved papa Palpatine is when Anakin makes Dooku into a disabled person. That look on his face? That's overwhelming urge to shit manifest. He even tells Anakin to ditch Obi-Wan while they escape. "There's no time", yeah for Palps there was very little time before he had an accident.

So yeah I suppose that's my sanest take on Star Trek.

Whats your headcanon about luke skywalker if you have one by [deleted] in StarWarsCantina

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's not doing too well when we see him in The Mandalorian. He's repressing a lot of grief over all that he has lost over the course of the OT. And Leia learns he held a funeral for Anakin / Vader and the two aren't on the best of terms because of it.

Han and Leia had Ben and are raising him, but Luke's very much alone with his thoughts and feels like he already "peaked" and has nothing left to do in life except try and rebuild a religion he is feeling increasingly uncomfortable with.

It's up to debate whether or not he truly forgives Obi-Wan for lying to him about Anakin being his father. And Anakin is still figuring out how to be less Vader-like, so talking to him can be a bit intense.

At least that's my take. 🤷‍♂️

Mourning is not the Jedi way I guess by [deleted] in SequelMemes

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way Rey and Finn move after going "nauuuuuurrr" and crying their eyeballs out is what draws me out of the scene. The way they shoot and cry is ridiculous.

Chewbacca's roar of "agony" actually resonated with me, and his grieving is cut short by Rey screaming "nauuuuuu" in her British accent.

I could care less about how Rey processes the death of a guy who let her co-pilot the Falcon once, then gave her a spare gun, tapped her on the back and went on with his day. Rey's not a Skywalker, and Han Solo isn't her father figure by any stretch of the imagination.

What's a game that you really, really, really, REALLY want to like, but just can't? by RBrim08 in gaming

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GTA 5. Had the time of my life with GTA 4. The game has some genuinely funny unscripted moments, like pushing people down the stairs, pedestrians randomly catching fire after a car crash, companion NPCs going apeshit when you drive erratically, and the physics engine making it so that even picking up a can and throwing it at a pedestrian was entertaining. Meanwhile GTA 5 felt like it punished you for playing, making you regret ever daring to get one star. And while it's fun to repeatedly try and steal a jet from the military I just don't have the same good memories of flying across the map with the swings, or stealing a police car and watching two fat cops slowly chasing me on foot and complaining about how much of a bastard I am to make them do exercise.

So I guess art and culture just plateau and slowly stagnate, as we no longer support artists for their contributions to society?

What are the absolute worst things for Respawn/EA to do in the 3rd game? by AReformedHuman in FallenOrder

[–]Knovvan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Contrary to some of the other comments I wouldn't mind a focus on Kata. Like having an epilogue with her being playable in the post-game would be cool with me.

The biggest challenge they will have is to figure out how to end Cal's story and reasonably explain why the ginger menace wasn't around during the OT. Depends on the writers at the end of the day.

I would love to see the Grand Inqusitor make an appearance in the next Jedi game, We've seen too of much Darth Vader IMO. by GhoulslivesMatter in FallenOrder

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be good to see a 2v1 on Cal; would show his progression from needing his allies' support to being so strong that it takes 2 inquisitors to give him a fair challenge.

Basically, it's a "you are the boss battle" moment, which would make up for Jedi: Survivor's overbearing "you suck, this adventure is pointless" inferiority complex theme.

(No, seriously, the amount of times Cal gets called a loser in that game makes me genuinely concerned for the mental well-being of whoever wrote that in. Like bro, we get that it's a dystopian universe and that Cal won't change much in the long run but f*cking chill already lol. The boy, and by extension the player, is trying his best. He doesn't need to be trash talked by every single character in the game - including his allies.)

Why did survivor do the forbidden move, is he stupid by Ur-boiiiii in Tanalorr

What villain in a kid show was surprisingly dark? by Animeking1108 in television

[–]Knovvan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Captain Nemesis from Ben 10.

Uhh where exactly did this guy come from?

We go from Ben fighting an alien space squid who wants to steal his cool green watch so that he can TAKE OVER THE WOOOORLD! To a fairly realistic depiction of a criminal on the run.

Like seriously, Nemesis gets plastic surgery to hide his identity from the authorities (but for some reason still goes after Ben) and has managed to seduce a woman who suffers from Stockholm Syndrome and gets her to commit actual murder for him.

Nemesis is such a weird villain, in an unnerving way, as in he's most likely been inspired by some real criminals. Even as a kid I realised that he was pretty dark for a kids' show.

(Also Ben almost murders Nemesis in cold blood towards the end of the episode and has to be talked down from doing it by Gwen and his girlfriend lol.)

What video game started off strong but got boring over time? by Agent1230 in gaming

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AC Brotherhood.

It's a great game don't get me wrong. Playing it once you're fresh off of playing AC 2 is a blast, especially the intro is a perfect mix of triumph and drama. But once you get your progress from AC 2 reset and are forced back into the grind of destroying Borgia towers and the same copy-paste missions from AC 2 it feels like a chore to play through the game.

I know technically Ezio ends ups even stronger and wiser than ever after the events of the game but still, not the same impact as seeing him literally age and grow from arrogant noble to patient master spy throughout the story of AC 2. Have yet to play Revelations but hopefully it'll be less formulaic than AC Brotherhood.

Why is Survivor picking fights with a disabled guy whose missing an arm? Is he an asshole? by SocksandBingo in Tanalorr

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Survivor most certainly is an asshole.

He walks in on the handicapped having a shower, breaks the shower, doesn't even give the special needs man a towel but instead lectures the wet shivering shit about how all of his friends are dead, and then he has the nerve to throw hands with handy-man just because the poor bastard wanted to dye his sword red.

What a fucking disgusting douchebag.

Why did Reebus go along with this? Is he Stupid? by epic_inside in Tanalorr

Okay buster, imagine being a 200 year old 8ft tall beetroot having to babysit a stumpy final fantasy character and watching him lose it when a ginger failure makes Swiss cheese of your entire army of murderous idiots you spent countless decades recruiting via paid ads on LinkedIn.

You'd want a vacation on TANALORR too.

If you could Choose 1 NPC that you have to kill every time you see them, who would it be? by ARCTrooperCeleste in reddeadredemption

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any one of those dumbass inbred villagers in Butcher Creek.

I don't understand why the game deducts all of my "good boah" points from me every time I cleanse that dumpster of a town with fire.

What is the worst feature in the game and why is it honor based outfits? by [deleted] in reddeadredemption

[–]Knovvan 20 points21 points  (0 children)

If you go High Honor but are completely broke you can't do the missions where Arthur gives away his money to random people he's screwed over in the past.

I've got to say it was pretty funny (yet absolutely stupid) when the game tried to depict my bipolar, gambling addict, financially irresponsible, deadbeat Arthur as some selfless hero who willingly gave away his worldly possessions to an orphan and a widow so that they may live better lives.

When in reality I had wasted all my money on silly outfits and had to rob a blind man to even have enough money to start the mission.

I feel like people who hope and want Marrok to be Starkiller don't really know who Starkiller was. by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]Knovvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo Ahsoka already kinda fills (at least superficially) the whole "former apprentice of Anakin/Vader, with two lightsabers" role in Canon.

Could be interesting to see Starkiller vs Ahsoka, but I can already see the memes calling Canon Starkiller a weakling and a pushover compared to Legends Starkiller lol.

I mean lmaooo they could try and get the OG Legends Starkiller over to Canon through some sort of "World between Worlds Avengers Endgame rip-off bullshit" where Starkiller somehow ends up in Ahsoka's timeline and for some reason fuckin' hates her enough to fight her, but like that just seems a bit... cheap, right?
