@americanime It's literally the same scenario. Ridley Scott was familiar with HR Ginger's work, hired him and gave feedback until the settled on the final design
@arttavana@Alabaster_Scarf The trade dispute is pretty easy to follow along if you just pay attention. The whole point is to show how useless the Senate was and advance Palpatine in his rise to power. Since Naboo was his home planet he was able to get a sympathy vote.
@americanime@DigitalDrifter So you're calling George a hack because he hired conceptual artists to take his sketches and flesh them out more, give feedback, and refine them into what he wanted? Do you not know how this works?
@EyeOfTheVHolder@StrikerDragon5 The reason I don't like both of them is that a lot of the jokes they make are surface level jokes the fandom has already beaten to death. That and they push a lot of stupid misconceptions about said series
@EyeOfTheVHolder@StrikerDragon5 There are a few good jokes but a broken clock is right twice a day. Littlekurriboh was just lucky he was the first to do something like that. If he came out after TFS (also not a fan) no one would care.
He falls back on the "children's card game" joke so many times
@GiveMeButter I prefer the original EU but I think it makes sense to have extra reassurance on Palpatine's end. What doesn't make sense is that they wear off after a while. You'd think they'd always stay on.
