anyone watched "Star Wars - Visions" ?
Small 15min episodes where different animators seem to get to do whatever they like, dont think anything is canon but the first one was very cool

First one is my favourite as you could see it being canon. SW is either Samurai or Western or both. Loved the animation style as well.
The one with the band was pants.

Interesting article and certainly some stuff that would have been far better than we got
The proposed scene of Chewie commandeering an X-Wing and kicking ass would have been awesome.
He wouldn’t fit in the cockpit

@mn5 don’t spoil it! Maybe it’s an upgrade to the T-65. Gotta be species inclusive these days. Humanoids only is not sustainable.
True. Chewie was very tall but not that bulky.
Porkins fit.

Yeah righto. Hired by the rebels cos HR would have a fit if there wasn’t one token fat fluffybunny to fill a quota and was the first one to die cos he’d fucked the engines on the X wing the moment he sat down…..seriously, every other X wing could avoid the surface cannons except for him.
Which brings me to my next rant…..How come in Rogue One they sent out literally hundreds of Tie Fighters for a dogfight but in a New Hope there was pretty much only three ? Couldn’t George Lucas have come back and rejigged the scene ? If Scarif had a couple of hundred Ties then the Death Star would have had thousands.

I think that may be one of the plotholes filled in though later books/comics. I have a vague recollection of reading an explanation. Something to do with not having re-allocated the squadrons for destroyers to Death Star yet. DS was very new and still being commissioned when the actions of the rebels accelerated it's use.

I hear that but I’m sure they would have had a few thousand floating around in case of emergencies. Not like there wasn’t room for them !

im what many have referred too as a bit of a star wars nerd.....and i've never given that this much thought

A bit of a ironic meme this one, I remember reading in the newspaper around 97-98 ( remember those relics of the past ? ) that Ewen McGregor had been cast as Obi Wan. My first thought was no fucken way will that junkie do justice to an iconic character. I was triggered before that term was even a term….
How wrong I was.
If anything due to the volume of work he surpassed the great Sir Alec Guinness.
Hats off you Scottish legend.
