I only wish there was a way to stop this crap from happening, if only a random crazy person would just walk up and Japanese Prime Minister her a$$!

    It's ironic that Leslye Headlund thinks that it doesn't matter whether someone is good or evil, when she also implies that whoever holds a lot of power is evil. Because Disney has a lot of power, and would therefore be evil, according to her. So clearly she doesn't mind being evil if she's the one with the power!

    Prime Star Wars was 1977-2012. All down hill from there with one or two occasionally good things (Rogue One, Tales Of The Jedi, The Mandalorian) :/ but it pales in comparison to the plethora of content we were provided with in the expanded universe. Sure, some stuff wasn’t the best, but Luke was treated with respect, the gang was together, we got to delve into The Old Republic and amazing characters like Darth Revan, Darth Malak, Darth Nihilus, Vitiate, Bastila Shan, HK-47 and other memorable and iconic characters were created. George Lucas Star Wars was complete experimental and creative freedom.

    • @erinm9445

      Tony Gilroy came into Rogue One with very little knowledge of Star Wars, and then gave us Rogue One and Andor. Meanwhile, the writers of Rings of Power were Lord of the Rings superfans, and they gave us the worst dreck ever. Sometimes a fresh perspective is a good thing. I love Dave Filoni's stuff, but it does all feel the same to some degree, and fresh ideas are needed. The real question is not are you a fan of the series, but rather, do you respect the series, are you interested in doing your homework, etc? Now someone who comes in and says, "it's not about good and evil" does seem to me like someone who doesn't really respect what Star Wars is about, given that Lucas himself said multiple times that Star Wars is about good vs evil. Star Wars is also about space nazis, so we definitely don't want to take this to a "there were good people on both sides" kind of place.

      @@abeaconintheoffice No, balance is the right word. It's just that it's not a balance between light and dark, it's rather a stable (ie blanced) light side. The light side can exist in balance with the force; the dark side tries to pull the force/light side out of balance.
      I would argue that the Jedi had come out of balance on their own, and that's what allowed the Sith to succeed and create the Empire. They were out of balance in two ways: 1) Their allegiance to the senate was greater than their allegiance to the force; 2) They tried to completely stamp out emotion and attachment, instead of learning to live *in balance with* emotion and attachment.

      ​​​@@erinm9445 You were doing well, until no. 2 of your last paragraph. It's not that the Jedi ruled out emotion completely... Anakin had too much of it. George has said multiple times in public that attachment is bad. We tend to put a different weight on this word. But it's inherently bad. You have attachment because you can't let go, not because you feel something. There is no balance in attachment... And the movies were very clear about this. The conversation Anakin has with Padmé on that shuttle going to Naboo in EP 2, and when Anakin seeks Yoda's council in EP. 3, those are the scenes that convey this the most.

      @Alpha-77 2 місяці тому +1

      I know alot of people don't trust Filoni now, but I have a possible reason as to why theres such a difference between what he did back then vs what he's done now. At the time of Clone Wars, Rebels, and Mando Seasons 1 and 2, that's all he had his focus on. When Clone Wars was in production, that's all he had to focus on. When Rebels was in production, that's all he had to focus on. Same with Mando S1 and 2. But now he has Mando, BOBF, Ahsoka, and the Bad Batch. He has so much on his plate that's its harder to put all the quality into all of them within the certain deadline. Rather or not Disney or Filoni is the one urging that these all be done in a certain time frame is the question. Just throwing that out there.

      You don’t have to be Sith or Jedi to use the light or dark side of the force.
      The force absolutely seeks balance between light and dark.
      It’s why The Sith were able to destroy the Jedi and form the empire.
      It’s why Luke (and Vader) was able to destroy the Sith and restore the republic.
      It’s why this cycle will keep repeating for eternity and why Kreia hated and wanted to destroy the force.

      ​@@lomborg4876The imbalance is the Sith. And the darkness. There is a reason why when Star Wars has a happy ending, it's because the Sith has been destroyed, and there's finally balance. If Balance meant equal Sith and equal Jedi, then the ending of Return of the Jedi and the ending of Rise of Skywalker would be a terrible ending for the Galaxy, because it's now imbalanced since there is only Jedi left.
      But the writers, directors, George Lucas has made it clear. When the Jedi win, there is balance, and peace throughout the Galaxy. Hence the happy ending.

Any actual example of something she changed was when George second-guessed himself and took a scene out, like the “kiss for luck”, where Marcia persuaded him to keep it in. She probably would have left in most of the deleted scenes from AOTC and ROTS, which, don’t get me wrong, would have been great, but I doubt she would have had THAT big of an impact on the films.
      Furthermore, this is irrelevant. The things you are describing were not her editing work, they were her relationship with her then-husband.

    Sw Theory regarding "good or bad thing"
    The show is set around 200-100 years before TPM, at that point jedi had become arrogant as yoda says. I believe that the line "It´s not about good or bad, this is about power and who´s allowed to use it," is refering to how ( maybe) in the acolyte we will get to see the so perfect jedi order of the high republic starts to get corrupt and starts to resemble the jedi order of TPM by jedi realizing how much power they posses and becoming arrogant, and this could even be explored by a jedi turning to the dark side in this show.

      I think exactly the same. "It's about power and who can use it". The Jedi forbade other Jedi from using the dark side... that's a power hierachy about power... I personally think that the Acolyte will be the Jedi - not this antagonist. They won't be consumed by the dark side but marvel at the power of the dark side which then corrupts the Jedi Order to the point where they become even more misguided in their order.

    The line "it's not about good or bad, it's about power and who's allowed to use it" is a common belief amongst social justice (now DEI) advocates. They claim that those in power are actively oppressing minorities and preventing them from holding any kind of real power. "It's not about good or bad" is a justification to achieve this power, ie: by any means necessary. It's a very sinister type of thinking where the ends justify the means and if the line separating good vs evil is erased, then whatever methods used are not at all in conflict with any type of opposing belief system. It's not lost on me that it was a black female that stated this line.
    The fact that Theory couldn't wrap his head around the use of that line doesn't surprise me. He seems like a genuinely good dude that only wants to see the best in people. For good or bad, I'm assumedly a little more jaded than he.
