“Why the fuck would Dryden Vos need to know a form of combat to counter the Jedi?” I wondered. “They’ve been genocided off the face of the galaxy, it’s not like he’s going to run into one! And why teach it to Qi’ra? Just to be cool and have a nod to the Jedi in the movie somehow? Whatever.”
THIS MOVIE WAS TRYING, OKAY. And sometimes in little things that I really appreciated, like how Sam Witwer talks about how they listened to him when he was asking questions about things, for example Maul’s lightsaber:
“What I appreciated about the process is that both Ray and I were both respected for our knowledge on this subject. Little things like a producer saying to me, okay and then he’s going to draw his lightsaber. And I’m like okay, which lightsaber? And they’re like, oh, his double bladed lightsaber from Phantom Menace. I’m like, alright, forgive me! But he doesn’t have that anymore. You got two choices–you can go with the Darksaber, which means this, this, and this. Or you can go with the Inquisitor lightsaber which means, interestingly enough, he’s being hunted by the Empire.” (x)
LISTEN TO SAM WITWER AND OTHER STAR WARS NERDS, GUYS. THEY LOVE THIS SHIT AND THEY WILL BE HAPPY TO HELP GIVE YOU OPTIONS THAT ARE CONTINUOUS WITH WHAT CAME BEFORE. ♥
I want to know what they were for. Were they Mandalorian currency? Are the only a small amount of them and they’re worth a lot? Do they have chocolate inside them? Who knows?
