mstrox 6,643 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 My preferred reading is similar to the EU and I believe modern canon as well - the ghosts aren’t always hanging around. Basically, what we saw is what we got (hence why Luke was so surprised to see Yoda again in TLJ). Luke had a bunch of old books and maybe holocrons and had to navigate the New Way and the old ways.

Good points there. But I do wonder if he just never got that far yet? With him having to start over, it was all rather small-scale... Or are you taking things from Legends too? I must admit I myself didn't get that far yet. Didn't get beyond the Zahn books there; so haven't a clue how things were handled in New Jedi Order times.

Yeah I appreciate Heir to the Empire actually giving the in-universe reason of Ben Kenobi's ghost having one last meeting with Luke (great scene btw) and saying that he is passing on, almost like being a force ghost is a state of purgatory Pieter Boelen and Pellaeon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showing PLEEENTY content on that planet and then blowing it up is quite a bit harsher. So heavy use of Alderaan anywhere else could retroactively make Ep 4 darker; even if it doesn't show anything else extra there. Just trying to think of reasons why they might tread lightly...? The Mandalore thing looked more like "bombing" and less like "people getting killed". But indeed Order 66, you really see all the Jedi actively being murdered. Quite harsh as well, yes. 3 hours ago, Fabulin said: I thought they hit it with the first one.... That's not what I meant and you know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again I’m almost sure they won’t show us Vader at all in any promotional material In some ways I don't understand that. Why wouldn't they? It's rumored to be the same suit as was used in Rogue One, and even if not, there's only so much variation you can get in a life-action Darth Vader suit. Remember, he was even shown in Rogue One promos, and that was his first live-action appearance in over a decade. It wouldn't surprise me if they don't show Hayden's face at all in promo material, but Vader? Idk. 30 minutes ago, Hedji said: I am wondering if we might be looking at a Clone Wars era flashback (which would be totally cool with me). I'd imagine they'd make more of a makeup attempt to bridge to Guinness' age. My dream scenario is a Clone Wars flashback with Hayden, Ewan, Temuera Morrison as Captain Rex/Commander Cody, and a de-aged Rosario Dawson (Ahsoka). Not sure how likely that is, but one can dream. 29 minutes ago, Disco Stu said: Will this series make the "When we last met I was but a learner" line in the original make even less sense in the context of the current canon? Almost certainly yes! I used to think that, but the line is actually "When I left you, I was but the learner." People (myself included) have apparently been misremembering that line for decades. The actual line doesn't necessarily imply that they never met again in the time since ROTS; "left" obviously refers to when he stopped being Obi-Wan's apprentice and joined the dark side. So the line is referring to the time during ROTS, and there's nothing that says they can't meet after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
