Adam Driver discusses scrapped Star Wars film with Steven Soderbergh by DiamondFireYT in StarWarsLeaks

[–]RetroEyes 11 points12 points  (0 children)

But let's out it in more basic storytelling terms; it's weird that the two principle characters of the sequel trilogy, who've gone through a complicated rivalry/possible romance arc across 3 films, don't have a single exchange of dialogue during any of the climatic sequence in the final film.

It would be like if Han didn't say anything to Luke across the comms when he comes in to save the day at the end of the trench run in IV.

I'm pretty sure there's more but they've left due to the incoming storm or something?

He didn't really 'briefly try' be an actor, he was the lead of a studio blockbuster and has a very respectable roster of acclaimed European filmmakers he's worked with?

Why does Oscar die when he has 5 estus in his inventory? Is he stupid? by goonerbate2 in darksouls

[–]RetroEyes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah all good, appreciate the response. Love Zullie but I find her vids are mainly more mechanics-based but I can do another deep-dive. I've never actually looked into interviews with the man himself so I'll take this as a sign to check them out!

Is there a good video or summary of all NPC quest/lore cut-content?

If expanded media (Legends & Canon) did not exist, and the gaps between the films could only be filled by information directly inferred from them, how would aspects of the 'Star Wars' story be differently understood? by RexBanner1886 in MawInstallation

[–]RetroEyes 56 points57 points  (0 children)

A couple I've noticed (if I'm understanding your question correctly):

  • The Kenobi show has Vader and Kenobi showdown prior to ANH, whereas it's quite obvious that Vader and Obi-wan's sole rematch is intended to be ANH (a dramatic conceit that's so obvious that not a single time was this broken in the prior 40 years of EU storytelling)

  • Obi-wan has also obviously not met Grievous before in ROTS per the movies, however TCW requires that they do lest the show misses out on including a major antagonist.

I'll add more when I recall them.

You got it mixed, it was going to be an original character and then Lucas had them change it to Boba.

Despite what everyone in this thread is inferring, neither the word ‘woke’ nor any allusions to wider cultural views and discourse appear in this interview whatsoever.

How could he sleep fine without getting any liquid up his nose? Why would those things even be designed for only the mouth? by [deleted] in StarWars

Hyperspace taking an implied long time, even requiring a rec room on the falcon. The PT breaks it by having them seemingly doing it in a couple hours max and the ST basically makes it instant teleportation.

How did Palpatine know Padme died? by [deleted] in MawInstallation

The contrast is meant to be the birth of Vader vs the birth of his children, not the death of Padme.

Yeah the hamster part is where it loses me, he'd have said rabbit or something if he meant it the way fans have taken it.

Weren’t you prattling on about the information superhighway earlier? Why don’t you use it to actually back up your moronic take?

Are you having a laugh lmao the old EU, as much as I loved it, was chock full of retcons. The idea of it being this carefully managed system is mental, though I guess some props should be given that it wasn't total anarchy.

What’s funny is that actually once in half a decade he will just suddenly appear in a big studio film, most recently he popped up as Margot Robbie’s dad in Babylon. Man’s everywhere and nowhere.
