It's kinda his thing. He's very active in the Movie and TV board for a guy who doesn't watch much movies or TV.

There is no reason why the four Jedi Mae was sent to murder, should feel guilty at all.
definitly not true.

Sol (whatever ) was a ridiculous Jedi, who mindlessly disobeyed the council.
Yeah the show is definitly about Jedi’s despite their training being adaptable to human flaws.

The entire plot of this series is empty and contrived. It serves no purpose.
this sentence serves no purpose. it doesn’t actually say anything. The plot serves the purpose of telling this story.
quote:
Mae flips her motivation several times within a single episode without any explanation
this keeps being stated but she literally says why she flipped her motivation. She straight up tells Wimir when he is in the trap that Osha being alive changes everything.
She literally went from
someone who had nothing but vengeance to live for to a person who has a living sibling to live for.
then if you watched the show you’d see how fricking bad their reunion went and she now feels like the jedi may not have killed Osha but poisoned her against her.
This is all super easy to follow if you watch the fricking show.

The subtleties of something like Cortosis are important because if not treated carefully they create huge problems that will continue and expand as this thing moves forward. If there’s a material out there that can just block everything it renders all weapons pointless. You’d understand this if you were a Star Wars fan instead of a Disney shill.

Dude, they literally broke his helmet off very easily in the episode with a punch.
Be careful, they'll say this breaks canon too

Another irrelevant deflection

you just treat it as something rare and easily broke through normal force and it isn’t world shattering it’s just cool

So now you’ve reverted to falsely quoting me. Funny it’s always your type that he’s up having to use dishonesty as an argumentative tactic.

I'm quoting the post above you, the response was to you, then I quoted another post above you and responded to it also.

Exactly

No

but that’s what we got.
the jedi have never seen it so i can assume it’s rare
and it breaks when Jecko throws a hilt shot.
if the jedi know what it was they’d probably be throwing rocks at him with the force.

I know you aren't referring to this specifically with the above quote, but what is your interpretation of what the witch mom was doing when she was vaporizing herself and the young Osha?
Sol seems pretty justified in fearing what was happening considering one of the jedi had already been force possessed in an earlier encounter with the witches. The mother figure wasn't the brightest in her handling of the situation.
What did Tommen feel so guilty about that warranted a 10 year meditation and then gulping some poison? He personally got possessed, had to fight one of his jedi companions that was possessed and then got his face scarred up for life. I guess you could argue it was the cover up of the actions of others, but man that is pretty forced.
Why the need for a cover up to begin with? Was Trinity not justified in freeing the Wookiee from a pretty heinous personal violation? I would assume she didn't know all the witches were gonna die from it, but even if she did, what else was she supposed to do there? On that note, how bad is your writing room when you have to steal the idea of the droid control ship taking out the whole droid army and apply it to the space witches?
Saying these jedi are just susceptible to human flaws writes off just how little their actions of the consequences of them make sense. I could be really interested in a show that puts a well-written jedi character having to make a morally difficult or compromising choice, but these people are just morons or moitvated by bad intentions.

it’s not super clear. I think she was trying to get into his mind to calm things down. It wasn’t the best move.
I never thought the jedi were going to be out right evil. I dont think Sol’s guilt is just from the fact that he killed her in a misunderstanding, but that he pushed the situation to that point. He says they have noble intentions but it’s also clear Sol is longing for a padawan probably because he wants something like a family. He knows that wasn’t the right thing to do. he should have grabbed Tommen not broke I yo the coven with him.

He got on a space bike and drove out to the coven to kidnap 2 kids because they were proof of a vergence so he could go home and get off the dumb rock. Those actions lead to the death of a lot of people.
Kalnacca maybe never recovers from the witches in his head because they don’t release him fully. We don’t get to see much of him after the flashbacks. just him in his guts that are covered in the witches ruins.
Indarra helped Sol cover it up because she felt it was best for Osha, but she seemed less guilty than Sol and Torbin.

are you fricking kidding me.... Did you not understand any of the OT?
Where did you see Anakin’s birth in the original trilogy? There is still no concrete answer for Anakin’s birth
Tell me.... what did Anakin do AFTER he turned into Darth Vader? do you want me to narrow it down. What happens toward the end of Return of the Jedi? Ill quote what you said again to make sure we are staying on track.
quote:
Maybe Tatooine was a dark side vergence
fter all, Anakin did turn into Darth Vader
Posted on 7/10/24 at 2:00 pm to CarRamrod
We know anakin was created by the force. We have no concrete proof of how that happened. Might as well just say magic.
You asked if I watched the original trilogy. How anakin was created was not covered in the OT.
I was giving a rebuttal to the guy that said Anakin was created by a light side vergence. There is no proof of that, it is just as likely to be a neutral or dark side vergence. Hence my usage of the word MAYBE
I covered that pages back. Read the thread

It was Mae, not Osha. Sol only thought it was Osha. Why he assumed that no idea? But every explanation I’ve read says she was trying to protect Mae by turning to smoke. It wasn’t clear or smart whatever she was doing.
quote:

I guess because he was the one who took off on the speeder to go back there and eventually brought the rest with him in chase. Secondary is him wanting to go home so badly brought it on. But at the same time you could say the mama witch made his homesickness worse.
If anybody was guilt free it was the Wookiee.
The writers took great pains not to make anyone, on any side, seem truly evil or guilty. And I don’t like that. Because if their point is to make everyone’s actions somewhat justified and just a series of misunderstandings then what of any consequence could truly come out of this series. What’s the point? Somebody watched way too much Threes Company.

Mae was sent to kill Sol. She's had more than one opportunity to do so. When he's got his back turned to her, she has a knife ready to go, then...
"Take the wheel!"
Bwaaahhh Braaahh.
She takes the wheel, doesn't kill him.
Retards wrote this show. Change my mind.

This is just a proposed theory how it happened.
Also it isn't canon

That's asinine because he brought balance to the force buy destroying Palpitine. Thats black and fricking white. So how can you logically claim it "could be" a dark vergence?
