Star Wars is Playing Things Too Safe (The Thing About)

[@mikailaturkleson7472]

I should note that the moment of praise I gave to Gina Carano was don't before she started spouting her transphobic bullshit and I revoke it all completely.

[@richardsmith2719]

We will not hold it against you for liking a woman before she began spewing transphobic nonsense. My empty bookshelf with a suspiciously Ravenclaw-shaped dust indent is a constant reminder of that.

[@coffthedndplayer5186]

I don’t blame you. But she did play a interesting in character in the lore of Star Wars I believe this the first time in live action we have seen a ex imperial join the good side.

[@FormalFilmsProductions]

Don’t blame you whatsoever

[@Locodeus]

What did she say?

[@davidbengb8484]

Except that the transphobic nonsense that trans recieve is pretty much deserved, because what people usually mean with that is just any mild display of reason that naturally gravitates towards anti-trans arguments.

Lana Beniko is the players personal Nathanos in SWTOR and I’ll always love BioWare for that

[@Deadpoolzilla]

Me: hm, odd, Mikaila didn't talk about- Mikaila: fuck it, let's talk about Lana Me: oh thank god, I was worried there for a sec

[@Ax07605]

Lana does challenge the player by voicing disapproval, shallow writing would be a yes man companion. But by the time fall and order happens you're power a step above a darth. Sith respect power she respects you and will disagree with your decisions but trust you. She acts as an advisor and like a good advisor won't take any decision you make personally. Literally just a sith that doesn't do stupid shit which is really appealing after dealing with so many cartoon villains her and Marr are the goats and literally carry the Empire.

I truly love Mikaila's videos! I wish she made more videos. I love her takes so much.

10:21 This is the moment that make me remember this is a reupload.

[@LordDoom10]

I need a Pod Racing series. But in seriousness, I can agree they are playing things too safe. The Mandalorian was a chance to branch off to do their own thing. Follow a bounty hunter through the galaxy, largely free of the films. But in the second season, it seems like they are trying to tie the show back into the movies. Now that I think on it, it is odd Disney hasn't used more legends material to make new stories. They just have to look at fan reactions to those stories to see which are safe bets and which would be risks. And there is plenty of nostalgia bait to be used as well.

[@hubbabubba2570]

Skywalker saga is just that road that's getting walked way too long. Every time they give me a grogu I wonder "huh, what's gonna happen to this guy".

[@storymaster164]

Lana is hands down my favorite Sith character in all of Star Wars. Period. The End. And if anyone try’s to say otherwise I will fight you!

[@PinkPanther45518]

Finally!!! Someone talks about Jarr Jarr in a positive light!!!😁👍 Jarr Jarr is not a bad character. Yes sometimes he can be frustrating and a tiny bit annoying. He is not a bad character though. He has importance. His importance is being comedic relief that's why he's such a klutz!! Also without Jarr Jarr the Nabooians wouldn't have gotten the help of the Gungans!!?!?!!! Cause for some reason the Jedi just didn't know about the other race living on Naboo for some reason?? That's the whole point. I don't get why people don't get this. He's a fun character and I'm really glad for the Clone Wars show because it really flushes out his character more and gives more meaning to him besides comedic relief. I appreciate that a lot.😁👍💖

[@metroidnerd9001]

I was wondering why I saw no mention of The Bad Batch anywhere in the video, and then I realized that this was a reupload from over a year ago. I do think the series is going in a pretty interesting direction so far, especially with the characters opting not to pick a side in the civil war, just wanting to escape and live their own lives.

[@krankarvolund7771]

Honestly, I've always found the all "Sith always betray their masters" completely dumb. They're supposed to be in search of power, why would they kill a more powerful and knowledgeable Sith? If I recall correctly, there was even a mention in some material that some Sith techniques have been lost because the apprentice killed their master too soon, that's stupid XD If I was an evil space wizard and I wanted power, I would maim and torture my master until he reveal all his secrets, not kill him rightaway ^^

[@Vigriff]

I agree, doubly so if the Sith Order is at war with the rest of the galaxy

[@krankarvolund7771]

@@Vigriff Or worst, if they're only two Siths in the entire galaxy XD

[@spotsthenpc7796]

@@krankarvolund7771 Sith (and the dark side in general) are basically self destractive. The dark side gets into them and since they only care about themselves they forget that killing their masters might not be that good for the entire order in the long run. Thats why Darth Bane made the rule of two. Specifically because he realized that when you have an entire army of sith its going to end up killing itself because sith killing each other is inevitable. So having one master and one apprentice was basically the best solution, the apprentice kills the master, the apprentice becomes the master and takes their own apprentice to pass down the teachings and repeat until you end up with Sidious.

[@krankarvolund7771]

@@spotsthenpc7796 Yeah, but they tells us that sometimes, the apprentice will kill their master, even if they have not learned everything from them, how does that help them to gain power? XD

7:09 So, we're gonna ignore the KOTOR and Jedi Knight series? Both of which had this ability?

Rey’s healing ability was a dark side power, darth plageius would have been able to use the same power set as is described by ol sheevy boy. And he was most certainly a sith

I randomly clicked your profile on a random video from 5 months ago. I am confirmed magic, as I clicked your account as soon as this was uploaded.

[@tedscheett9420]

What I really want is a game that TRULY caters to the Imperial Perspective. None of this Battlefront 2 stuff that has 3 or 4 missions with you playing as the bad guy then, WHOOPS! Apparently the Imperials were bad guys all along because they have no problem killing civilians. Yes, Iden, does the name Alderaan ring any bells? Please let me play as an Imperial in a game that isn't crappy definition or transitions to the light side. I want to Execute Order 66. I want to be a Clone Trooper and hunt Jedi. I'm tired of "hope this" and "light side" that. Give me a Star Destroyer and a Red Lightsaber any day.

[@navilluscire2567]

The Empire are literally fascists, super authoritarian and xenophobic.

[@1wolftank]

Literally a star wars movie outside of the galaxy the originals were in

[@Nasox]

Thank you. This needed to be said.

[@MegaAgamon]

While I do agree with the general premise I must say the Mandalorian is quite an interesting show. To see a main character who doesn't use the force becoming the father of a force user in a western + samurai space opera feels exactly like Star Wars yet it is kinda unique. I think you should give it more credit especially in season 2.

[@phangkuanhoong7967]

Yes. The one greatest redeeming quality of the prequels were the lightsaber fights. No SW movie nor series even came close after that.

[@voidotter1435]

I understood not being mean to fictional characters, but for me at least the sarcastic options are funny in Fallout 4

@@LilianOrchard Even before that you had lots of detractors for Return of the Jedi, and even Empire, pretty much the only movie that is loved universally now, badly divided both critics and fans when it came out. The fanbase has been divided and infighty since it stopped being Star Wars, singular.
