The Human Torch Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Midichlorians don't de-mystify the Force, they are just lifeforms which facilitate humaniods hearing/harnessing the Force. The Force is still a mystical energy field that surrounds/penetrates everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Because of that, I hope Snyder makes whatever idiot is currently playing Superman dye his hair blonde and get a buzz cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavonis Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Henry Cavill is the current idiot playing Superman. And I do believe Kal-El will sport shoulder-length dreadlocks in the next film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mara Jade Skywalker Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 If "Fighter Flight" is what their bottle episodes are gonna be like, we've got nothing to worry about. I watched "Rise of the Old Masters" last night and all I can say is more of that, please. Pitch perfect. Jason Isaacs as the Inquisitor brings a lot of class to the role. (The spinning lightsaber is still really dumb.) And for all of you who worry that Star Wars won't go dark with Disney in charge, ha, you're wrong.

The Human Torch Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Why were people worried about Star Wars not going dark with Disney? It wasn't dark under Lucas either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 People, who apparently don't understand concepts like making money, were convinced that Star Wars was suddenly going to include dancing candelabras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Wars is "Ya know, we could use an extra lamp in here"I don't care what anyone says, a dude burning to death on a lava beach is pretty freaking dark. And there were lots of Clone Wars episodes that were out there, like the zombie nightsisters. And you know, "I am your father" and all that. Sure it's not R-rated scarred-for-life stuff, but it's also not all happy stealing fruit fun times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I can't speak to the Clone Wars cartoon because I only saw a few, but it's a fair point about the lava fire. I think the point though is that if Disney wants to make these movies "darker" there's plenty of room for them to do so. In a way it would be like the Harry Potter series. The first book is all sunshine and puppy dogs and each book gets progressively darker until the last one you need a gallon of ice cream and a pack of Kleenex to get through it. It never got to Thomas Harris levels of darkness, though, so it's all a matter of degree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Jade Skywalker Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 I get what you're saying, and I agree. I never want Star Wars to be super dark. The OT had hilarious moments amidst blowing up planets. The PT, while I enjoyed it, was either too serious or two "funny." It didn't strike the right mix for me, not even with The Clone Wars. Rebels feels pitch perfect, though. Even a silly episode like "Fighter Flight" has some harsh moments when Ezra realizes his family's friends are going to have their farm taken away. And then there's "Rise of the Old Masters," which... Uses the mummified body of a Jedi Master to lure Kanan and the gang to their doom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerimar Nyliram Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Once again, my problem isn't with the name itself but the fact that they revealed it, and that it tells me more mystery-destroying revelations are likely on the way.You mean like the midichlorians?

Doze Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Midichlorians is a good thing. They are not the force. They are like an infection that likes the force and grows there. They don't answer anything just open the door form more questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
