Speaking of Tie Fighter as it has been discussed here recently. You know I had no issue with the female TIE bomber pilot being an ace mostly because in the old fluff, (ya know the stuff this is homage of rather then the modern shitshow) to actually get into a bomber squadron you had to have at least twenty combat sorties in a normal fighter(about the same rules for Interceptors) so there is an actual reason that makes this female pilot be as capable as her male counterparts(even her squad lead) and it makes all the sense in the world. She's an ace with likely years of piloting behind her and familiarity with her craft and its production line, its strengths and weaknesses. ...Yeah I am sort of getting dragged into Rey piloting the Falcon like she did in Awakens thing but I just will point out, just flying a particular ship, and having a battle scar completely made me okay with this chick devastating an entire Rebel Alliance squadron in basically what amounts to a heavy bomber craft(which sort of would normally put her in the vein as Rey shooting down TIE fighters with a weapon system she is unfamiliar with and has never used before) ._. Yeah, I think the argument of "fans hating women" should be fucking taken out back and shot tbhWhat I despise in modern Star Wars is the forced inclusion of "diversity" at the expense of realism and keeping to the rules and lore set by the faction. Basically all the modern SJW bullshit that got shoved down our throats with what...? The last what...four fucking movies? The fact that you had to post such a lengthy post about it is fasinating though. Really speaks to the state of those direct the franchise I'd agree. But I wrote SW off as dead long ago, whether Kennedy and her ilk stay or go is irrelevant to me for the most part, damage done. Also its "fascinating" it uses a C not a S.

I fucking knew sabercopters would be mentioned though, because no one cannot mention Rebels and think of sabercopters, but no I wasn't even referencing that

As I understand it, a blade is based on how the hilt is constructed and what material and kyber crystal is used.
I myself could not believe every single lightsaber blade possessing the same length and width.

I actually prefer the Rebels lightsaber merely because it looks more like a laser sword and less like a beam of light. If you notice it also tapers down to a thin point, which makes me pretty satisfied. I love a nice, thin, tapered sword. Gives it a more elegant feel, which ties back to what Obi-wan said about being an elegant weapon for an elegant age. But others would have different preferences here.

Saber-copters are even more mind-numbingly stupid than midichlorians If you have a cybernetic wrist with the ability to spin, saber-copter for the win. Luke and Vader could have done this, potentially, because of their mechanical limbs. Grievous too, for that matter. As presented in the cartoon -

IT'S TIME TO DESTROY YOUR SEQUELS STUFF! That is mind numbingly stupid. I love the sequels but even stuff I hate I'd never destroy. I'd sell it. For example I hated FFX2. I sold it not destroy it. If I hate a movie I saw in the theater I don't buy it. If I bought it because I missed it I sell it. Pretty simple logic.
