  1. It's difficult to say right now, but I guess, Kylo does have yellowish tone in his eyes. It could be just the reflection from a light or the lightsaber, but still it's a possible variant. The eyes aren't entirely yellow yet (TLJ takes place a few weeks if not days after TFA), so it's just a first step, where his eyes begin to change. Notably count Dooku didn't have any yellow eyes at all.
  2. Aside from big news on TLJ, there is also a video of a longer scene for A New Hope! It seems the term "Sith" was always there, we simply couldn't know. https://youtu.be/ja4WudpzBYw

  3. The poster doesn't show it, but the trailer does have this – Kylo Ren seems to be having yellow eyes. Also at least one shot wasn't clear for me – the so-called library. It's like a dark tree with some books. Some claim it's from Yoda or the old Jedi Temple. We now finally see the new ships, moving like podracers in Episode I, to tell the truth. And AT-ATs ad the distance.
  4. I enjoyed it, but it only includes the most important things (and it's normal). The main characters, the main villains, the main theme. In many ways the designs remind me of Rogue One, to tell the truth, I mean the ships scenes of course. Some other parts do provide some answers and questions: One shot with Rey's hand reminds me of Star Wars: The Old Republic latest trailer. They also published a teaser poster.
  5. Watching the Celebration. Let's see what they've got in stock for us this time. ;)

      Hoping to see the trailer drop live, if I can!

      Yesterday's panels were really really great. Got to see Harrison, Hayden, and even George.

      They've finally shown the trailer! Well, everyone must see it for themselves. :)

  6. She is played by Kelly Marie Trun. Also Billy Dee Williams confirmed – he is not in The Last Jedi. EDIT: We now have a picture of her (and yes, that's her real name).
  7. Can't see Padme there. In any case it is true, that the show is most likely intended for a younger audience. I am wondering, whether these are the real clips from the upcoming show. Or a fan-made stuff:
  8. Lucasfilm announced, they would be making a new show in Star Wars, telling additional stories about various characters, including Rey, Ahsoka Tano, Sabine Wren, Jyn Erso, Maz Kanata and others. I am not sure, what would be the format or the style, but in any case I feel it would be more of a documentary perhaps? If it's a micro-series, then perhaps it would 3-5 minutes each episode, like it was originally was with Clone Wars (2003). But why no information about Rex, Plo Koon, Kassian Andor, Poe Dameron and many others?
  9. Just watched teaser for new Battlefront. Seems we might get a real plot and story this time.

  10. Rose is a new character. It's not the real name from Star Wars, but the one used for now as alias
  11. Found a music remix from Dark Forces II, played on Nar Shaddaa, which is now used in SW:TOR. At the very same planet. :)

      Ohhh, that's a nice reference to players saying "Hey, we never forgot. ^_^"

  12. There've been several rumours about The Last Jedi in the last 2 weeks. One notable rumour is about Benicio Del Toro character: Some bit about Laura Dern's character. A bit about Droids. Something about Snoke and his stuff with the Order New Stormtroopers. In any case a lot of things would be revealed with the new trailer and the special panel for The Last Jedi during the Orlando Celebration on April 14th. We simply have to wait.
  13. So it's almost a week until we see something from The Last Jedi like a trailer. But the rumour claims, that today we might know the name for one of the planets in the story.
  14. As for Season 4, there are rumours, that: Personally the Rebels as a whole had a lot of good episodes, but they still need to polish the style of the show, I believe. I would definitely watch the new episodes, but it's not that I am too enthusiastic about the Ghost team. Season 1 captivated me a lot more But I would like to see Season 4.
  15. @@Archangel35757 There is only one line, which I connect to your idea – that Obi Wan could train Ezra, but he didn't. A similar concept was in The Force Unleashed II, as I described above. If you didn't like the other thoughts, which I expressed in my message, well, that's not my problem.
  16. @@Archangel35757 To tell the truth, this is where this episode has a lot in common with The Force Unleashed II – when Starkiller travels to Dagobah, he meets Yoda, who simply shows him the way. That's all. But in the game it is not known, that Yoda is a Jedi master, even if Starkiller had his suspicions. As for the Chosen One – well, the concept works in a peculiar way for Star Wars. Even though it wasn't invented per se by G.Lucas at the time of filming Episode VI, it still in there, if we look back from a 1999 perspective. So here in Rebels, the devlopers had to follow a similar pattern – almost nobody truly mentions the Chosen One during this era (as if Rebels were made during 1970-1980s), and only a character from Episode I begins a talk. So it's like, that some characters know it, but unless someone suitable mentions the prophecy, they wouldn't talk about it to characters of the Rebellion era (e.g. Luke knows nothing of the prophecy at least in the films, as Obi Wan doesn't mention it). I also think, that the idea works just fine, because Obi Wan might have been disillusioned with the Chosen One prophecy, thus not paying much attention to it, being on Tatooine. And of course it doesn't mean much for Leia, Chewie, Han, etc. Even if nobody knows – it still works in an unexpected way. The same now is (possibly) done in Rebels.
  17. My guess was, that they wanted to combine the stylistics of the Rebels (which gains much from TCW and the prequels) with more from A New Hope – the film didn't show some effects or details, which are now quite common in Star Wars, like a bright cut from a ligthsaber. In Episode IV there wasn't anything like that. I also believe, that this saber cut effect is in many ways close to the adventurous Jedi, as well as brutal kills on their part. Obi Wan Kenobi here is an old hermit, which no longer needs his lightsaber to defeat an enemy. So we see no cuts, as Obi Wan makes a very gentle attack, which was just one move, which kills Maul. While in Episode III and Episode VII there are intense fights, which is a series of failed mortal blows, which in the end are seen quite obviously, when finally hit. It's not a matter of realism, rather the symbolism. I am simply glad, that Maul is finally dead. I still believe, it was a very foolish move to make him return in The Clone Wars. I might have swallowed this bitter pill, but if we count how many times he managed to survive?... Episode I - 1, The Clone Wars - about 2-3 times, Rebels - 1-2 times again. Isn't that a ridiculous fortune? I can't remember anyone being so lucky, except perhaps for Grievous, who had that in his nature - always to run. I feel, that Maul wasn't actually the one hiding in the shadows even if he had survived on Naboo, but rather he would attack Obi Wan immediately even without his legs. His current death is already rising silly jokes, that he will return in the new stories/TV series/movies as two twins, which were cut in half vertically, with the reconstructed left/right sides of their bodies.
  18. Watched the latest episode in Rebels series. It's about my most unfavourite role of the ressurected Darth Maul, but overall the episode was still quite good. There is also on more moment, which actually raises questions. It's been a wonder for fans even before the Rebels TV series, to tell the truth – perhaps since the release of The Phantom Menace in 1999. Careful, spoilers ahead:
  19. Having watched The Force Unleashed on other platforms, I must say it's a very different game! There are dozens of citizens seen on Bespin and you even meet a Gungan Bounty Hunter to kill!

      Well, I personally played only the PC version, and I always felt, it lacks something. As if something is missing. Having looked through concepts, articles, story descriptions, I see now, that my version is a short and dull one, to tell the truth. In one if the videos the Player throws away various Cloud City citizens, while also meeting Lobot after that.

      thought pc version would be the better one lols

  20. There is a theory, how Luke's lightsaber ended in Maz Kanata's hands. But I thought, the hilt was actually sucked away from the City and into the clouds and gas of Bespin... Thoughts?

      My one and only conclusion to Jar Jar's story is under a pile of rocks, buried alive by Rosh after being abandoned on the desert planet. Jedi Academy Re-Edited FTW.

      Hahaha! That's my favourite ending, too! :D

      Yes, I also find that quite amusing to watch. =) Even more funny is the fact, that the two actually find each other. Nevertheless I am glad we have them. :D

  21. I suddenly found several fan-made trailers for a mix of Rogue One / Dark Forces / Jedi Knight. In some cases it looks really cool. I mean, not a bad move to remember the true story of the Death Star plans. And you all might be already familiar with the Unreal Engine Jedi Outcast Movie, which has its own thread here on forums, but still there is one trailer related to it as well.
  22. It's also curious, that they start filming Episode IX later this Summer. Personally it's somehow unusual for me to put I and X for Star Wars... Because usually we used I or V for Episodes. There's been an unconfirmed leak about what the trailer would show us. There is another rumour, which includes the names of Lego sets. Not very special, as we can't see them, but the titles do give some hints. It's most likely a fake. Yes, one position from the list was part from another rumour, suggesting we would see a very new design in large known ships.
  23. @@Bek Dantooine is mostly plains, but that's how we saw it in KOTOR 1 and 2. I decided to stay close to K1 in terms of yellow grass. Originally I used the old textures from the game, but made new version of most of them. In this screen the place is kept under the supervision of the authorities, even though it's quite old (it's actually the Matale estate, if you remember it). JA however has its limitations... I also read the books, looked through Dantooine in SW Galaxies, as well as through various comics, encyclopedia, etc. The most interesting thing in my opinion is the Dantari, the local tribes. However they stay aside from our story The Eol Sha also don't appear, but these people were all killed by Daala years before DP. It's somehow difficult to add something truly Dantooinish in this particular square, but other locations include certain design solutions, don't worry.
  24. Updated Dantooine maps, which gained much both in terms of visual design and gameplay. The already mentioned and shown location of Dantooine fams is now larger than it originally was. The third map also offers sort of a small additional quest, which can be ignored by the Players. We also made it so, that dantooine levels have their own enemy NPCs now, and even if you meet familiar bad guys, they now have a new look as well.
  25. So, we now know, that "The Last Jedi" differs in one little way from Return of the Jedi title, for instance...
