    Call it an unpopular opinion but Star Grift is a big step up in quality from any other podcast Theory has done in the past. It is great to include different opinions from all corners of the fanbase. Theory's optimistic nature complements the more nihilistic and chaotic Ryan takes, and Mauler ties it all together. Love to see the progress, Theory, and it's noticeable, especially getting to meet Hayden. Keep it up!

      This is basically how we all used to talk to each other as mates...
      We like different characters and want to see different things happen.
      There's a bit of arguments about whoes right, best, better etc.
      But that used to be a big part of the fun "my guy would beat your guy in a fight".

      Grievous literally got destroyed by the 2008 show and has not recovered. Everything before hand (even the movie which wasn't that good to him) at least treated him with respect and used him as an actual force until 2008 decided to make him a joke.

    • @shanecoyle8053
      @shanecoyle8053 9 місяців тому

      Grievous being so impressive even relative to some of the best the Jedi have ever produced is stupid though. His character isn’t even very good or interesting either.

      @shadowofdimentio4618 9 місяців тому +37

      @@shanecoyle8053 Dude was a war veteran from one of the bloodiest wars in star Wars, a master at combat and was then given the an artificial brain that could process information faster than any human, with armour that was more durable than star ships and training from Dooku himself (who is an expert in dueling specifically). He's then taught how to overwhelm opponents, use every advantage he has (including very unorthodox methods like his feet or extra arms) in a era of peace where most jedi aren't taught or have experienced real war. He is given specific body parts that let him defeat jedi, such as his feet that resist force push and pull, as well as wrists that can pivot and gain extra reach. He can think faster than most super computers, putting him leagues above any Jedi who isn't putting their all into force Precog.
      It makes a LOT of sense why he was a monster no Jedi could really beat. Anyone with force crush bodies him (Something only the Sith use, as well as Windu) or anyone who can stay calm like Obi-Wan. He was literally the perfect tool for a story perspective.
      In terms of character, everyone thinks Grievous rocks. He has plenty of character, both from legends and Movie/2008 (the good scenes of him anyway. The very few good scenes). He's a war vet who hates the Jedi specifically and hunts them like a monster. Anytime the story focuses on him, it shows him as this unstoppable monster that portrays the monsters the Jedi have created. Is he as interesting as Vader, Luke or Obi-Wan? Of course not. But the fact people still call him cool and want him in stuff despite how much 2008 tried to butcher him really shows how such a simple core principle can make a character. If we get into Legends then I'd argue he's a brilliant character only beaten out by Dooku in the prequel trilogy era for villains

      ^.-.^ Indeed. There are plenty of films and series that I enjoy which I can acknowledge are 'not well made", but I still enjoy.
      There are many episodes of TCW I am not a fan of, while others I absolutely love. Being able to acknowledge the ones that aren't good, allows me to appreciate the ones which Are good even more.
      Without the ability to recognize and admit when something is bad, we would have no means to understand what makes something good. ^.-.^

    Please don’t ask mauler to release weekly.. don’t make him put out low quality sh*t because he does it weekly. Quality over quantity any day. I’m glad he doesn’t have tik tok brain…
    Also, can you guys maybe talk about Jedi philosophy?.. I feel like that is a huge dividing line for people that like Star Wars. Like it’s the reason why OT people get mad at the prequels and why people disagree about the motivations of Luke. They get so emotional about it because they infuse their real life philosophy with Jedi philosophy..
    I saw somebody absolutely reject yoda from the prequels because in the OT he said only use the force in defense, never attack. He said yoda was not defending obi and ani from dooku in AOTC. Idk man.. that seems stupid to not accept yoda fighting off dooku AS a defense. Attack can be a defense.. if he killed palps that would be a Defense in my mind too.

    I’m not even trying to be a dick, like I understand him wanting to stay optimistic but, dude after a decade of this garbage, why would Disney just… stop doing what they’re doing?

That alone should be enough to realize that literally NO AMOUNT OF PROPER ACCURATE CRITICISM WILL EVER BE RECEIVED BY DISNEY IN A HEALTHY WAY… they will lie and gaslight forever and they will never admit to doing anything wrong…

    Yeah, I can think of a few. One being that George claimed Obi-Wan was more powerful than Vader when they fought in Episode IV. Doesn't gel with me. Also -- I'm unsure if this was actually said by George or not -- but I've been told that he said in his sequel trilogy Leia would have been revealed to truly be the Chosen One and also that Darth Maul would be shown to have survived. I don't want anyone being the Chosen One other than Anakin (weakens the first six films) and I've never been a fan of Darth Maul having survived, for any reason.
