KotOR 2 - The Movie
Except KOTOR 2 is well written where as TLJ's script is a dumpster fire.
Wouldn’t that mean it’d have to be good?
I still cant get over how fucking dumb that crossguard on the edgyboy lightsaber is
Like you can literally cut through the metal part, whats the point
Star Wars is a fucking shit series and I wish it's stupid shitty imagery would stop being shoved in my face all the time
you could also slide a normal lightsaber blade down and cut someone else's hilt in a saber lock, but rule of cool is more important than logic. the sequel trilogy has much larger problems than the crossguard.
Atleast avellone tried to make star wars universe something more than typical good vs evil fairlytale. Also dialogue was on much higher level than bioware childish kotor 1.
Last jedi is controversial for the sake of being controversial and entire plot is retarded. Still it's better than episode 9.
>childish kotor 1
Nothing wrong with being childish. It's Star Wars after all, so who cares.
I love K2 by the way
>at least avellone tried to make star wars universe something more than typical good vs evil fairlytale
Brainlet take on KOTOR 2.
KOTOR 2 is very in line with the core philosophy of the Lucas movies. In fact, it feels like a thematic primer for Revenge of The Sith in many ways. KOTOR 1’s problems aren’t it being childish— It’s that it’s basically a shallow rehash of the OT (which is also ironically a problem TFA suffered from).
>it’s basically a shallow rehash of the OT
Brainlet take on KOTOR 1.
SW:TLJ pretty much killed the big budget movie side of this franchise, Disney is allegedly attempting to have another SW movie out by 2025/2026 but with what sort of people are rumored to be attached it's probably going to be dog shit like the rest of Disney SW stuff.
KOTOR 1 basically is just the OT with Bioware cliches mixed in. I feel 2 is slightly truer to what SW is at its core, even though K2 didn’t do a terrible job.
I wanted to like these movies, I don't want to be contrarian or anything but these Disney SW films legitimately feel like fan-fictions but in a bad way. Doesn't feel like "real star wars" if that makes sense, which is to be expected when you have totally different directors. But something went wrong and it feels like it's missing the soul of Star Wars, as if the people who created these movies have no idea what people actually liked about Star Wars in the first place.
Yes, in the sense that it rips of KotOR II and does fuck all new or original, and the only people who think it does don't know shit about Star Wars.
No, in the sense that KotOR 2 is good, well written, and didn't kill the franchise.
>KOTOR 1 basically is just the OT
But that's fucking wrong. Homages and references are a thing in fiction and K1 certainly has plenty of them, but saying it's a rehash of OT gives away a brainlet in you.
The one and only Sequel Trilogy
>kill the franchise
Did it?
People still signed up for D+ to watch the shows.
People still buy the games like Jedi Fallen Order.
People still buy the lego sets and funko pops.
Then you have the icon that is baby yeed.
Then you still have people paying 5k for the whatever stuff at Disneyworld/Land/wherever.
Sure, but sales've been plummeting for quite some time now. SW as a franchise isn't nearly as profitable as it used to be some time after the release of TFA
I've been thinking of buying these books lately. Why are they so acclaimed among longtime Star Wars fans?
Get out.
SW actually decreased in sales at an unprecedented rate following TLJ. Compare that to the sales post-RoTJ or during the Prequel era, in which it sold extremely well.
yes because throwing the lightsaber that was gifted to him by his dead master and belonged to the father that he saved over his shoulder in a disrespectful manner is TOTALLY in character for Luke Skywalker.
