It’s of no surprise of course that the “help the weak” notion of the rebellion is further exemplified by rank bars based on medicine to help the weak.
Pathetic!
Join the Empire! You will not be made to coddle the weak! Only the Strong and Intelligent will advance in our lord, The Emperor’s Navy.

I knew they reminded me of something like that. Makes sense, rebels make me sick

I love how Pryce has no idea what she is unleashing on herself

Looking forward to meet you and I hope you can make it this weekend!

Hi guys, I have been working on repainting / modding a neft rhino blaster as an officers turret. This build has been fun. And very simple thus far. Here is a few pics of how far I have gotten. I hope you all like the start. And when I'm done I will have to post a final pic of the turret.
 
Down the barrel!

 
Length view.

 
Resting barrel.


For the outside and top, I will be constructing a shell piece to fit it. And a lighted targeter for the top of the rail system. It should take me a few more months to finish. But I'll bring it Saturday morning for a demo at blaster a trooper @ gem city CC.  Hope you like it!

That is so dope I’m totally in lol

From the moment they reintroduced Ruhk, I was on pins and needles.  Thrawn was one of my favourite characters from the moment he came on the scene in Heir to the Empire, and I'm not really ashamed to admit that I cried when he was brought back in the season 3 trailer.
 
I remember talking about the possibility of his reintroduction with a couple of my co-workers in the weeks before Celebration London, and was beyond elated with the way he was revealed in the trailer.
 
I'm very interested to see what the future brings us for his character and can't wait for Alliances to come out this summer.

Long story short...Filoni is a genius. But we all knew that

Exactly! Besides the most important fact of all... We didn’t actually see her die

I dunno, I liked it but I don't think it was as good as any of the other original films, or even TFA. Initially I thought Hobo Luke might work - we saw Yoda living like a hermit in a fairly unpleasant way, and Obi Wan was a bit of a desert rat as well, so there's a grand tradition amongst elder Jedi of being a bit... weird. I genuinely thought Luke was doing a Yoda - trying to test Rey's patience before revealing his true nature, but then I realised the whole thing was serious. We did get to see Rey being cool and patient and serious about getting Luke's help but we didn't get the right payoff. Seeing Yoda was cool though, but I think his character was a bit weird. Very much stuck on the 'crazy old man' act he was putting on in Episode V rather than the sage wise Jedi he actually turned out to be.
 
I think my - and many fans' - problem with the concept of the Jedi not being the be all and end all of the Force is that we've seen it before and done far better. In The Clone Wars we saw the Jedi order being portrayed as inefficient and decadent, and in Rebels we had Ahsoka who properly eschewed the Jedi Order to do things in a different way. Luke's way of doing it just wasn't very interesting, and it would have been better, I think, to have Rey realise the Jedi had to end on her own. That avoids a belovéd character being turned into something he really isn't, and gets the same message across.
 
I don't really mind killing Snoke off - he was far too much a Surrogate Palpatine, and it's good to move past that with a younger man at the helm and a different master-apprentice dynamic between Kylo and Hux. The casino scene as trencher mentioned seemed... a bit superfluous, but the ending battle scene was good fun. Don't get all the Rose hate, frankly, and Phasma could have had a better send off. 
 
This turned into a slightly longer post than intended... sorry chaps...

Besides the fact that her troops would never be so easily and quickly turned against her. Phasma trains all the troopers! She is revered by all troopers as a symbol/role model. If they were to turn on her it wouldn’t be after some traitor bad mouths her. I’m glad they deleted it. 

Congrats!

I upgraded my Warrant Officer and today go approved for my Staff Officer! 

Finally found this elusive 3 pack in stock at Walmart!
 

 
I have a new mini-me in the Staff Officer and they will all have a good home.

Of course lol

Read the book today good to see my theory on what the other officers thought of Hux actually spelled out

I think we know it's going too far if we start seeing Deadpool in SW  

Was anyone else perplexed by Reys 'Luke in the caves of Dagobah' moment? I personally failed to see what about it involved the dark side. They tried to end it the same way they did the scene on ESB with something being cracked open or shattered to reveal the heroes face. On ESB that had meaning though, it was demonstrative of Luke's fear of becoming Vader or simply fears himself depending on how you look at it. Darth Vader's appearance in the cave was a clear indicator of the dark side at play as well.
In TLJ the mirror revealed herself when she asked who her parents were... Whatever that's supposed to mean. These places that are strong with the dark side of the force are supposed to test you; they play on your darker primal emotions such as fear, hate, loss, etc.. Rey did not experience anything like that. Really what she felt was simply a calm determination to reach the... I don't know... end of the mirrors I guess. Then she wasn't confronted with anything that would expose her internal weaknesses. She did the equivalent of throwing a coin in a wishing well and asked who her parents were. Calculating... Calculating..... and the answer is... YO FACE. What the heck was that LOL. So Rey leaves having learned nothing. If I were to watch that scene of mirrors with no prior knowledge of TLJ I would not have able to guess that the place she was in, which I would've perceived as a bad acid trip, was a place strong with the Dark side.
 
If it was supposed to be like some kind of seriously classic British subtle ironic dark humor, as if the only answer dark side rich places give anyone is 'YO FACE', than I would have a totally new respect for the film and dare I say Rian Johnson.
...However I find that highly unlikely considering his feeble childish humor moments were so prevalent in the film. 

Since TFA came out I always hoped to see some more high officers, like we had in the OT with Ozzel, Piett, Motti, Tarkin, no need to tell, we know them all. Perhaps an Admiral or some other General, working together and walking along a hallway. But sadly we only got Hux and for five minutes in TLJ Captain Canady (btw am I the only one who got highly remembered of "the Hunt for red october" when the Bridge of the Fulminatrix was all in red light and they used that periscope?). It looks like there are no other high officers necessary, at least not for the movie, I'm sure they need them within the FO. I think this is sad and a missed opportunity.

Just finished the first issue of the Comic Adaptation of Thrawn.  Must say I'm pretty happy with it.  There are some great details in the illustrations, AND we even get a new Rank Plaque (One Single Lonely Blue Tile, possibly Ensign, for Cadet Vanto).  Very much looking forward to the remainder of this series!
