[QUOTE=Tuskin;51685078] Who?[/QUOTE] Tera Sinube, the old Jedi Master who taught the Padawans, his canesaber was white. [t]http://i.imgur.com/ZhHzXiC.png[/t]

[QUOTE=Pops;51685055] they already added two gay characters to episode 8.[/QUOTE] As if there's a quota. "Wait, That's TWO gay couples? We only needed one. How can we fit the token transvestite in now?" [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Shitposting" - Bradyns))[/highlight]

[QUOTE=jonu67;51685084]Tera Sinube[/QUOTE] His blade is a very light blue, not white. [img]http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/f/f1/Tera_Sinube%27s_lightsaber.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100128090645[/img]

[QUOTE=Tuskin;51685098]His blade is a very light blue, not white.[/QUOTE] That's what the wookiepedia page said sure. But come on, just looking at the blade and him in combat you can hardly see any blue at all, it's like so light blue it's [I]barely[/I] blue.

Tbh, beyond the pilot of rebels i haven't seen any of it, and haven't seen past the first season of clone wars.

I don't really like this whole "Mandalorian Messiah" arc for Sabine, but I'll admit it looks [I]cool[/I]

[QUOTE=EliaMoroes;51685756]I don't really like this whole "Mandalorian Messiah" arc for Sabine, but I'll admit it looks [I]cool[/I][/QUOTE] I have a feeling She'll pass it along to her mother. I doubt they'll make Sabine that important.

[QUOTE=Tuskin;51685762]I have a feeling She'll pass it along to her mother. I doubt they'll make Sabine that important.[/QUOTE] I mean she's - Book spoilers - [sp]still a part of the rebel alliance, from what I remember she's involved in making rebel propaganda, I believe past A New Hope and onwards in the books.[/sp] So like you said she'll probably give her saber away, keeping it around would just make her a target for power seekers.

I have to agree with him. Not all Gray Jedi were part of the Jedi, so calling them a name with Jedi in it makes no sense. [video]https://twitter.com/pablohidalgo/status/821480675463151617[/video] [video]https://twitter.com/pablohidalgo/status/821491758605340673[/video]

Then edgey kids heard the words of. "Dip into the darkside but not being evil." and then it all turned to shit.

Well I don't think hes dissing the concept of grey jedi, just the name.

I'm surprised there just isn't loads of unaffiliated rogues with the force. The ability to cheat so well in gambling is all the excuse you really need, if you ignore some lucrative sports career. Plus the Jedi rules are so strict and fun-killing. No romance, in a world with Twi'leks? Madness. Surely the jedi order must've gotten a few (more) deserters during the clone wars. People from seperatist worlds, those that don't like the republic that much. I don't think that's edgy, that's just normal people not wanting to be monks. Jedi constantly travel to see the outside world even if they don't fully live in it, I'm sure a few must want to step over the line. (quick off topic question: were jedi trained as generals or did the force guide their moves?)

to the jedi training thing, they were only trained to be similar to generals after the clone wars started picking up and getting bigger scale, I believe.

for the grey/gray jedi thing, i believe it implies that while they might dabble a bit into dark side territory, ultimately they're still good guys. kind of an anti-hero thing, where they mainly look out for themselves but aren't totally selfish dicks. pablo is right though, you're either a jedi or not.

How come no one ever used the force to take a lightsaber out of someone's hand and like chop their arm off with it or something?

using the Force requires concentration, and in a saber-vs-saber situation both parties are probably pretty focused on not getting hacked to pieces by the opposing blade - in that moment you want to have your Force power going into attack and defence moves, and a moment's distraction could create an opening for your opponent to exploit

[QUOTE=dannyketch;51688339]How come no one ever used the force to take a lightsaber out of someone's hand and like chop their arm off with it or something?[/QUOTE] Presumably a Jedi could use Force Stay-In-My-Hand as quickly as another Force user could use Force Pull. Having good reflexes is kind of a Jedi thing.

From what I've read, force users can project a bubble around them that protects them from other force abilities. If they get their ass kicked, they might screw this up and be left open to force powers. EG: Anakin gets his hand cut off by Count Dooku, whom then force pushes him across the room incapacitating him. Or at least that's what was thought up to explain why dueling force users just don't push, choke, or keep hitting the saber ignition switch off constantly from the get go.

[QUOTE=The Jack;51665637][sp]So I thought everyone didn't really need to die. Like the Monk and the robot brought me tears, but the samurai's death just felt like they were filling a quota and he could've used some development instead. The Pilot's death was decent, but I didn't feel like Jyn and captain got the emotional impact they were going for. Would've prefered a frantic and failed escape attempt to just giving up.[/sp][/QUOTE] I was kinda hoping [sp]a few of them would survive, have a "We did it!" moment, and then have Vader show up and just end them.[/sp] I was disappointed that didn't happen, but then [sp]Vader did show up to end some dudes and I though "okay, I'll settle for that I guess".[/sp]

[QUOTE=dannyketch;51688339]How come no one ever used the force to take a lightsaber out of someone's hand and like chop their arm off with it or something?[/QUOTE] We see this happen to much younger and less trained people. Ventress has her sabers stopped and taken for her by Yoda in the first episode of TCW. But we can also rationalize that it's hard to nab something from someone's grip that they know a Jedi wants.

[QUOTE=dannyketch;51688339]How come no one ever used the force to take a lightsaber out of someone's hand and like chop their arm off with it or something?[/QUOTE] One of my least favorite things in Star Wars, and especially The Clone Wars, is that this and other similar situations where the Force would be hella useful come up [i]all the time[/i]. There are so many situations where a quick usage of the Force could solve a problem, but it understandably would make for a boring story, so it just doesn't happen.
