can we just appreciate Han's face when he finds out that Leia is Luke's sister? you can see him getting flashbacks to Hoth. Harrison Ford's acting is so good here

Obi Wan is SUCH a pimp in the clone wars show! Look at him showing off in front of Mace Windu... AND hes friends with the marshmallow man jedi. What a baller. And we all know Obi breaks the no relationship rules.

I remember coming across this in 2018 I think. Pre-Mando. Would still love to see it somehow.

So, I found this little $12 lantern on Amazon and thought it’d make a good droid body. Well, some 3D printing and painting later, let me introduce you to L1-TR. “Lighter” will be illuminating our dice and sabaac games in the dim Sublight Lounge. Link to lantern and leg 3D files in comments.

The Star Wars Shows are better than the Star Wars Movies

Just my opinion, but the shows offer much more in-depth world building and deeper story telling. They characters are more fleshed-out and the there is greater context for what is happening and why. I'm talking about both the live action and animated series.The most of the movies are decent also. via /r/StarWars https://ift.tt/k8NLObS

Best Star Wars game you’ve ever played?

Over the many years there have been heaps of Star Wars games but which one has been your absolutely favourite and why?Mine has to be Shadow of The Empire as it is both one of the best games on the N64 and I remember playing the IG-88 train level over and over again as it was just the best!I always wanted to see Dash Render in live action but as he is pre-Disney he was removed! Such a shame as he was a great character that had potential plus the Outrider was a mad-ass ship! via /r/StarWars https://ift.tt/ImKvpWU

is anyone else wanting the next star wars trilogy to not start on a desert planet again?

(edit: I realized I misspoke on what I meant and have fixed that)I've been sitting here thinking about it this afternoon and I realized that all three trilogies in the star wars saga all of the main protagonists start on desert planets, like tatooine and jakku. It's a nice call back to the original to connect the protagonist, but I think this trend should eventually die. Who is with me. via /r/StarWars https://ift.tt/gbI4t1i

It’s appalling just how many people misinterpret the whole “Jedi can’t have attachments” thing.

It doesn’t mean what most people think it means.Jedi are allowed to love people, but they aren’t allowed to POSSESS them. To forgo your attachment means to forgo your possessive instincts.Selfless compassionate love instead of possessive toxic love.That was Anakin’s problem. He fell in love and instead of that love being selfless it became selfish and possessive because he’d lost everyone he’d really cared about. His mother, Ashoka, etc. He couldn’t bare to lose Padme. So instead of talking to his wife, “Hey I keep having these crazy dreams. It’s probably nothing but if they do come true, what should we do?” He took her fate into his own hands and didn’t even give her a choice in the matter.What if Padme decided that if it meant saving the babies, then she’ll die in childbirth? But we’ll never know…because Anakin selfishly removed her agency.Death is a natural part of life that shouldn’t be feared. So you should accept that gracefully and not try to posses & control.The reason Jedi have a policy against relationships is because it’s really hard for people to do that, even the most disciplined and virtuous of Jedi. So they just don’t put themselves in that situation. They avoid it all together.Leia is a good example of someone who loves selflessly AND forgoes her attachment. She loves Han, but she accepts his death in a healthy way, and doesn’t try to bring him back or seek limitless power to be able to prevent death or whatever she desires. via /r/StarWars https://ift.tt/At8EC3l

I hope we get another Battlefront before it's too late

As the title says, I hope we get another Battlefront. All that you can really play anymore is co-op and it would be a shame if my favorite game series ended before we saw its full potential. Is Battlefront over? via /r/StarWars https://ift.tt/Swgc0Fl

Did you know about the Star Wars Radio Dramas?

Made for NPR starting in 1981, the all-audio dramas feature all the action seen in the movies and more: deleted scenes, missing scenes or extended scenes, all with the sound design of Ben Burtt and music of John Williams accompanying some familiar names in Mark Hamill and Anthony Daniels. Perfect for listening to on the road!The first can be found here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-29uKdckL4 via /r/StarWars https://ift.tt/2ZBugIP
