>In the recently released art book, "Star Wars: The Art of the Rise of Skywalker," the film's production designer Rick Carter expressed his view on Rey as the Chosen One. Carter has an impressive résumé, having completed production design on famous films like Forrest Gump, Jurassic Park, and The Force Awakens.
>Rian Johnson opened Star Wars up to the possibility that, Rey is not a Skywalker by blood, then being the mythological Skywalker is something you can aspire to achieve in your life - which I think is great. It's not only your destiny based upon birth.
And there you have it. The Prophecy NEVER hinted at either Anakin or Luke being the Chosen One. It was actually hinting that ANYONE could be a mythological paragon, and Rey happened to be the one. Prequelfags BTFO.

this changes my life bros
Sequels aren't canon.
Is this going to be like that visual guide that even other people working on Star Wars will ignore?
I remember when they separated the Extended Universe to "Legends" and made it a separate canon from the films. I was pissed at the time. Now, considering how badly they've butchered the cinematic universe, I'm retroactively grateful.
This.
That... was not what the fucking Phantom Menace prophecy said. It didn't say anything about Skywalkers.
for fuck's sake
>taking fanfiction as fact
Yes, as they should ignore it.
Anything outside of the movies (well even some of the movies, Solo, Rise of Skywalker) is fanfiction garbage
What do you think?
Yeah well if that image is any indication we didn't really get any good EU content from the ST
This, this.
spbp
I'm sure is just a coincidence and trying to make money, not propaganda in any way. An user told me that yesterday.
>Star wars
nobody cares anymore bro
>what is the nu-canon beyond the movies? is any of it any good?
Fuck no. It makes the worst of the old EU look tame by comparison.
>Then what was the point?!
For Disney to wave their big Jewish cock in front of their (((investors))) while saying "Look at how big we are!"
>Old EU has a clone of Sheev
Oh my god this is kino of the highest order!
>Nu-canon has a clone of Sheev
Disgusting how can they butcher the meaning of Star Wars?!
Idiots. Old EU shit was mostly garbage. The first two movies were great and elements of the third and very few ideas, concepts, characters and designs of the old EU were good, but even George himself didn't know how to handle his own IP (see his sequel ideas, they're worse than Disney's).
It's about the toys, which pull in 4-6 times as much as the profits from the film itself do.
That's why Disney bought it. They're a toy company, not a movie company.
Something just occurred to me regarding Vader's sacrifice and the Wayfinder Macguffins from Episode 9...
>Kylo's wayfinder was excavated from Vader's castle on Mustafar by Vader worshippers.
>This would imply Vader knew about the location of Exegol & the Sith Eternal.
>This would also signify Vader knew of his master's plans for his resurrection.
Ergo, Anakin could've warned Luke about Sheev's true plans and prevented the events of the Sequel Trilogy from ever happening prior to his death. Hell, he could've warned anyone while he was a Force Ghost.
>Fuck no. It makes the worst of the old EU look tame by comparison.
How the fuck does someone start with a blank slate and somehow make something even worse than the worst of the old EU?
I thought people's talking points was that the toys weren't selling well.
>How the fuck does someone start with a blank slate and somehow make something even worse than the worst of the old EU?
I dunno. Ask Kathleen about her agenda.
>That's why Disney bought it. They're a toy company, not a movie company.
Too bad none of the ST toys post-TFA sold well.
One of the reasons I disdained the EU was all the stupid writing of resurrecting and cloning everyone several times over just to drag their stinking corpse under the nose of drooling readers.
I was glad they'd never do that in the actual mov...
>Old EU shit was mostly garbage.
So that makes Nu-EU another level below that?
They still have to produce decent movies, or he toy companies licensing several billion dollars worth of stuff from Disney will have to give them a talk.
This
And Anakin appears as a ghost coping at Rey like a bitch and she later responded by buring his lightsaber in the sand
>I remember when they separated the Extended Universe to "Legends" and made it a separate canon from the films.
It was always separate from the films. George never considered it to be apart of Star Wars back when he owned the company. He even said as much back in 2005. For some reason everyone seemed to have ignored that statement and continued to think that the EU was apart of the same continuity as the movies.
>what is the nu-canon beyond the movies? is any of it any good?
Yes. It's got way more highs than lows but the lows are nowhere near as bad as the EU was. The only consistent thing that's actually shitty about canon Star Wars is the Sequel Trilogy and most things directly tied to it. Everything else though has been very enjoyable.
>Anakin is a Christ like figure
>Falls to the dark side and enacts decades of tyranny
>His prodigy join a rebellion and fight the Empire
>One of them learns the Jedi arts and saves the galaxy from the Sith lords
>Anakin is redeemed by coming back to the light
>The Skywalkers defeated the dark lord of evil and saved the day
>In the sequels the dark lord didn't really die
>Their fight was for naught
>His spawn defeats him and claims the title of Skywalker for themselves
>At the end of it all, the Skywalker line is dead and downright humiliated
>A fake Skywalker, born of the dark lord is all that remains
Its pretty clear what the agenda is here.
Anakin literally says bring back the balance as I did tho
Makes no sense, also when did the thing for altering the story outside of movies happen? Because the only one I can think of is JKRowling trying to be everyone’s friend by making characters gay/black/Jewish/Muslim etc a decade or two later
>Ham's collar was tight. He stuck a finger in, prying it away from his neck.
If you look at the stuff Hasbro plans to release later this year:
geektyrant.com
It's ESB anniversary celebration, plus a toyline that has OT, PT/Clone Wars, and Mandalorian. Notice something missing?
>The Prophecy NEVER hinted at either Anakin or Luke being the Chosen One. It was actually hinting that ANYONE could be a mythological paragon
WRONG
What prompted Mace Windu to even bring up the prophesy in Episode I was Qui-Gon mentioning that Anakin was conceived by midichlorians and had no father, which indicated that this is a condition of the prophesy.
Rick Carter can eat a dick. He's completely undermined the sequel trilogy from the beginning.
It’s also fking retarded from a pro woman standpoint
>Anakin collapses the government and kills all the Jedi
>his son “rebirths” the Jedi
>his daughter remakes the government
They both rebuild what their father destroyed, both bearing an “equal load
>Nono none of this matters, actually Hitlers granddaughter and random black gay man did everything
X1000
Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi are the only real movies in this series, and no one has seen those movies since 1997 at least
It was clear when SW got the big sequel treatment that subversion and agenda pushing was on the menu.
As a toy collector I'm so fucking glad we're done with this shit. For years I've had to put up with waiting for things I actually want so they can release the yearly batch for whatever shit movie is coming out. Maybe now I'll finally get a 1/12 Droideka.
And now you know the meaning of Lucas' bizarre statement that Jar Jar is key to the whole thing.
bumper
They've been doing that for a while but the thing was the movies were the primary continuity while the rest wasn't. When the Disney buyout happened they jettisoned all the EU stuff with the promise that they'd make everything in the Nu-EU important. Then they couldn't keep anything together.
This doesn't make sense
The prophecy said nothing about the skywalker
It's canon whether you like it or not. Move on.
It's still canon. Rey took the name Skywalker so technically a Skywalker did bring balance to the force. Anakin was a space Hitler & Luke was whiney anyway. I like Han Solo & Kylo tho but Rey is the best like Jon Snow cause she was pure and badass
The funny thing is since shit like this and a whole load of fuckery in the comic industry, the blowhards in the industry are now saying canon should be done away with because it's toxic.
No, Rey is like Jon Snow. She's an outsider, brave, great fighter, humble, and didn't want to RULE over anyone. I like them both. Anakin just wanted to rule over people w/ Padme so he sucks.
Anakin didn't deserve to bring balance. I'm sorry but 1 good action doesn't erase 30 years of MURDER against kids & women & men. This applies to Kylo. He killed millions of innocent people. He didn't deserve it.
Rey, on the other hand, is similar to Jon Snow when you think abt it. She saved everyone by killing Palp (like Jon killing Dany) and they both refused to rule. They both didn't want to rule. They both were outsiders and didn't kill millions of innocent people
Yet more evidence that the artistic goal of the sequel trilogy was to shred the accomplishments of all the characters in the previous movies and have Rey appropriate all of them, in addition to all of their legacies.
Reminder that Snoke was a puppet in a jar made by Palpatine and Palpatine CANONICALLY made his puppet dress up in fluffy slippers because Palpatine liked it. This is official Disney canon. Palpatine was a tranny cross dresser.
This shit isn't canon. As far as I'm concerned, the entire ST is an Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge-style dying dream of a Rey, lying in the sun of the desert and letting herself starve and dehydrate as her drug fueled mind works perverts the story of the Skywalkers to be all about her, which fully explains everything about the Shit Trilogy. So as she looks off into the sunset and declares herself Rey Skywalker, she dies. Alone and unloved as the sand claims her body.
Fuck off Kathleen.
Why do they hate the old movies so fucking much?
>Rey took the name Skywalker so technically a Skywalker did bring balance to the force
The prophecy doesn't make any mention of a "Skywalker", but does mention that person to bring that balance will be male and be born of no father. Unless they're going to retcon Rey as trans and the fact she has a father, the prophecy was never about her.
Yet more postmodernist newspeak
>tradition isn't real
>genetics don't matter
>family isn't important
What's more likely: that REY is the fucking Chosen One, or that the sequels are simply non-canon to George Lucas's vision?
Wow. Strong counter argument. Stay mad
No. And all they're doing is making sure nobody but Mouse cucks will call these abominations canon. These "sequels" have been an unmitigated disaster of epic proportions.
Kind of just further cements the fact that Disney Wars is not canon to Lucas Wars and is a separate thing entirely.
Prophecies aren't always accurate. They literally say this in the prequels. I think Yoda says it
The latter is already true.
Dilate tranny
Based
Anakin didn't deserve to bring balance. I'm sorry but 1 good action doesn't erase 30 years of MURDER against kids. He murdered millions.
Rey is pure like Jon Snow when you think abt it. She saved everyone by killing Palp (like Jon killing Dany) and they both refused to rule. They both didn't want to rule. They both were outsiders and didn't kill millions of innocent people
But George said Anakin was and always will be the chosen one. It would be like if Amazon's Lord of the Rings show was about some random new character destroying the one ring, which somehow transferred its essence to a new body, and then claimed this is the true continuation of Tolkien's story
Anakin didn't deserve to be the big hero. I'm sorry but 1 good action doesn't erase 30 years of MURDER and killing millions of innocent people.
Rey, didn't kill millions of innocent people.
This. If Robocop 3 can be removed, so can other movies. Disney Wars is fanfiction trash.
samefag please go home
Lol, imagine using that awful final season of GoT to say how awesome you're stupid Mary Sue is. Go jerk off to her, dickhead. Rey's an unlikable piece of shit and so is anyone who tries to defend these movies.
Luke Skywalker killed millions of people and still got to be the hero.
Shit changes, user. Hell George Lucas kept changing shit throughout the franchise
Plus, like I've explained. Rey is a better chosen one. She is similar to Jon Snow (and he should've been on the throne not Bran) cause they both refused to rule, were outsiders, and killed the big baddie, and had a secret past.
Anakin literally killed millions of people. It's bullshit if you think ONE good action erases 30 years of genocide
Based and truepilled
I'm replying to multiple people and giving my argument. Quit crying abt it and come up with a counterargument
You're trolling, but the prophecy isn't about Anakin becoming "good" but he brings balance to the force by ending the rule of the sith.
>be vocal about distancing your new movies from the direction of the prequels
>one of the most disliked things was the chosen one circlejerking spoiling Anakin/Vader's story (among other things)
>oh.. except that, that's okay. need the girl to be awesome and epic
i seriously don't understand how they wrote such garbage. take ONE fucking day, sit down and write a proper story. it's not that hard. most of the people on this board could write a better trilogy on their own in less than a week. why is this embarrassing shit so commonplace in modern tv/movies? they get paid thousands to lounge around and deliver utter trash?
Vader probably only killed a couple of hundred of people. Not millions. And even he's more likable than Rey, Kathleen. Stop embarrassing yourself.
This has nothing to do with the final season, retard. It's established in the first half of the series and books Jon is strong, an outsider, has a secret important past, and is humble and doesn't wanna rule. This is all similar to Rey.
Rey, from a literary and thematic standpoint is the Anti-Christ of the Star Wars universe
GoT is cancer and so is Rey and the Shit Trilogy she spawned from.
sequels arent pro women, theyre pro kennedy. Rey is kennedys self insert, the entirety of the ST is KKs deviant art OC comic drawn in crayon
