How come 99% of the names this guy comes up with sound perfectly Star Warsian, but 99% of Nu-Wars names sound weird? What's the secret?
Two random examples:
>Qui Gon Jinn
vs
>Galen Erso

Could anyone in LOGH out-keikaku Thrawn? Would Reinhard and Disney-Thrawn bond over being siscons?
Oberstein
Old Thrawn or Disney Thrawn?
Old Thrawn would probably find himself struggling against Oberstein, Reuenthal or Yang depending on the situation.
Disney Thrawn could be outwitted by fricking Bittenfeld.
Disney Thrawn has prep time and has studied Bittenfeld’s collection of trap doujins.
There is literally, LITERALLY nothing wrong or tactically unsound about ordering repeated frontal charges, oberstein you giant metal eyes homosexual come fight me irl not on Fezzanchan ill wreck ur shit I swear on me kaiser ur fricking dead kiddo
I dropped it 2 maybe 3 episodes in when the princess character showed up. I could just tell it was going to be a generic anime.
that's because you're gay and most likely israeli
You’re missing out big time

It is literally LITERALLY the only good anime

Impeccable taste anon
>PoliSci 101
Eh no thanks
I've been wondering the same. Maybe it's just a psyhcological effect because we simply know that without George it's NOT Star Wars.
thread should've ended here
I think it's just that Lucas is a legitimate genius and auteur. He has that je ne sais qua
>this bounty hunter in cool armour? ALL his people are bounty hunters and wear this armour
>those guys important during the Death Star War? they all know each other and them, all their friends and families were also important decades ago and nobody else was
>disney: AND in the following decades! and they were wearing the same clothers for 50 years!
It’s probably a mixture of

Taika Watiti sounds like a Star Wars name.
David Cohen
I don't understand, why the frick do they change their names? Are they trying to hide their israeliness? Why? From whom? The nazis were defeated like 80 fricking years ago.
>Are they trying to hide their israeliness?
Duh.
>Are they trying to hide their israeliness? Why? From whom?
Yes. Have you ever heard of israelites being accused of being shapeshifters? Now you know why.
He did it so he could pretend to be a minority.
But aren't israelites already a minority?
It depends on the narrative.
no it doesnt
Everything George Lucas creates has soul. He's not trying to create something that sounds like Star Wars, he is simply creating and that is in and of itself Star Wars. Nu-Wars is all self-aware and trying to sound like Star Wars.
>He's not trying to create something that sounds like Star Wars
SOVL
That's an actual Star Wars name, something only George Lucas could come up with and unironically put into a movie.
>Luke SKYWALKER the pilot
>Han SOLO the rogue
>GREEDO wants money
>Darth VADER the father
>PRINCESS Leia the entitled brat
>LANDO owns a giant landing pad
Star Wars was always this way, the ramblings of Lucas's innocent mind. This isn't self-aware, this is the opposite of self-aware. This is the guy who walks into a room and says "Han Solo get it he doesn't want to be a team player! Every frame a masterpiece!"
>JANGO Fett the bounty hunter
wtf... you're onto something..
>LANDO owns a giant landing pad
Kek how did I never realize this earlier? I must be moronic, that's fricking hilarious
this is so dumb. what's next, a guy who has a bunch of ideas that stink called something like "Elan Musk"?
There is actually an elan mak in the N64 pot racing game

This guy shrunk the universe to like 5 people who all know each other and their families and made Tatooine the center of the galaxy all because of "poetry."
And that's a good thing.
frick loregay extended universe Black folk
Tatooine is significant because Anakin Skywalker was a force locus -- fates of those he touches are bound to that place.
That's not in the movies.
Sheev is pure Lucas

Yea sure, anakin knew obiwan and han knew lando. Wow. Doesn't mean that that yoda needs to friends with chewie, anakin built c3p0 and owned rd2d plus all the others. He went nuts making sure everyone was connected for no reason

>made Tatooine the center of the galaxy
Meanwhile Disney has made 3 DIFFERENT shows that all heavily feature Tatooine.
Babu Frik is a very star wars name.
Ah yes, Dexter Jetster, Elan Sleazebaggano, Kit Fisto....such good names
Soul, soul, soul
cope, cope, cope
SER, CERO, RNE
>Kid Fister
I can't get enough of that fricking name. What the actual frick, George
neither Elan nor Kit are named on-screen. Idk if Dex is, probably.
Salacious Crumb
Salacious B. Crumb to you, homosexual.
Dexter Jetster is fine. What would you call him? The others are literally just names that were on the toys.
Darth Icky
"Kylo Ren" <<<<<< "Darth Insanius" <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< "Darth Icky"
>Meanwhile, disney naming someone wyatt pryde
let me guess, you think she actually says "DEY HEA" in TLJ too?
>Lucas making fun of a room full of idiots
>fandom full of idiots take him seriously
No you don't get it anon, Lucas is a hack remember? He clearly doesn't make dry ass dad jokes all the time.
>George is a serious worldbuilder who planned everything and all of his ideas are the valid and real and true Star Wars
>Except for when he isn't and it's just a joke bro
Go frick yourself you disingenuous twat.
Because "Video Game Power Fantasy Man who rips Star Destroyers out of orbit and beats the shit out of Vader and Palpatine twice" totally deserves to be taken seriously as a canonical Darth.
>Lucas understands that the video game is moronic and an insult to the Star Wars mythos
>Still greenlights it for the cash
Wow….how noble……
He never limited other people from expressing their fanfictions. The EU could get fricking moronic, but he never cared because everyone knew his work was the top hierarchy in canon.
He said the story is canon tho even if his movies might retcon elements from said game story and that would be final.
>say something silly kicking around ideas
You'll take Darth Sidious but not Darth Sanius?
Icky wouldn't be bad if they spelt it as "Ikki"
>writer: uhhhuuh umm Mr Lucas we need him to have a Darth title
>george: Oh ok something like Darth icky or Darth insanius yeah fair enough
>writer: *shits and pisses himself while looking around nervously at his co-workers and the meeting room's walls*
>George moves on to the next subject
>mock glorified fanfiction authors for their gary stu
>make money off of it anyway
George is notorious for his deadpan humor and being a troll that enjoys fricking with people. Also he knew full well that this game was going to get canned as a result of the coming Disney buyout and was keeping them employed anyway. They should really be grateful, he could have canceled the project a full year or two earlier
Further proof that George Lucas is just a massive troll, before the EU books were written, a fan at a con asked him what happened to the heroes after RotJ. he said they all died, then moved to the next question.
George shutting down ideas like an old dad is fricking hilarious.
I used to laugh at this but Darth Insanius isn't all that bad honestly
wtf its dreadful, reset your brain to its previous settings
Maybe if they changed a letter like "Insadius" or "Ensanius"
>You MUST say "just kidding" after EVERY joke
Is american humor really like this?

Was it Lucas who came up with Glup Shitto? Nobody has been able to make a better name.
Qui Gon Jinn just sounds chinese.
Star Wars came out of Lucas' autistic brain. In it, he set up rules for himself when it came to that universe. Be they thought out or subconscious, it's impossible to recreate his autism.
>Qui Gon Jinn
This never sounded Star Wars to me.
And Obi Wan did?
Because Lucas gets most of his names from mythology or real things (chewing tobacco, reel two disc two) and Disney just make shit up that they think sounds Star Wars-y.
Disney would never come up with a name like General Grievous, Commander Cody, Jar Jar, Darth Tyrannus etc.
Nute Gunray
Boss Nass
Poggle
Ki Adi Mundi
Sheev Palpatine
Nute Gunray = Newt Gingrich/ray gun
Sheev = Shiva
Palpatine sounds Roman-ish—it’s one letter off from Palatine, which fits a story about a republic degenerating into an empire.
Reminder that Sheev's original name was Cos Dashit
Did Lucas come up with Sheev or was it someone at Disney?
I prefer Jango too but I hated that game.
I get That, shit was hard af, I would be lying if I didn’t say that used cheats every time to play the full game.
>Palpatine was not given a first name in any canonical or "Star Wars Legends" sources until 2014, when the character's first name—Sheev—was revealed in the novel Tarkin, written by James Luceno.[7] The Lucasfilm Story Group approached Del Rey Books and asked if they wanted to use the name, which was created by George Lucas, in the Tarkin novel, to which Del Rey agreed.[96]
Lucas was going to use it for the show Underworlds which was never filmed.
I'm glad underworlds never happened
I think it could've been neat, but Lucas definitely wasn't ready to oversee a massive live action show. Clone Wars was already expensive as frick
I'm not so glad simply because we got Disney shit instead. Idk if I would have wanted to watch a Star Wars tv show made when Lucas was still around but I defnitely refuse to watch any Disney Star Wars series.
It would've revealed that Palpatine became a monster because some woman broke his heart. Sounds fricking lame.
Yeah, that's why. Also would have contradicted Plagius novel
>Also would have contradicted Plagius novel
Who gives a shit, lmao
>sheev should be an incel!
yeah, that would explain a thing or two

Stop it, Darth.
Cos Dashit is unironically a good name
While I don't know where Jar Jar comes from, Ohto Gunga is from the story of Gunda Din, which tells you how you should read the relationship between Jar Jar and the Jedi.
Gunda Din is an indian servant who is beaten and abused by his british masters, in the end, the dying soldier admits that Gunga is better than him.
But Jar Jar is clearly mentally moronic even his people fear him because he's dangerous, always breaking shit.
They literally named the dog Indiana
As a kid I thought Qui-Gon Jinn was lazy. Obi-Wan happens to have a master who's named with the exact same weird hyphenated asian conventions as him?
Anyway, I think Din Djarin is a good star wars name, probably because Filoni worked with George for like a decade.
I agree with you on both of those things.
Din Djarin sounds like a pajeet.
So what? So does "Anakin".
sirs
Calm down, Hajheenaldo.
All these silly names but Kyle and Luke are still the best names and characters.
Who the frick is Kyle?
probably some gay homosexual from some gay homosexual videogame or book or something
Kyle Oh
Kyle Katarn
Fungo Hairstylios > Rey Palpatine Skywalker
>Han Solo
>Famously runs with a partner, thus making them a duo
Bravo, George
I'm glad Disney fixed that in the Solo movie!
No he's Han Solo because he has no last name so the Empire gave it to him because he's alone :^)
>Han(d) solo
Does he just jerk off all the time?
Nabuu
Kit fisto
Hoth
My favorite was Darth Maul's brother, Uncivilized Tyrant.
If Greedo was a new character I'm fairly sure the name would be used as an example of creative bankruptcy. Greez is the only good Disney character anyway.
I’m gonna be honest with you bros, it may be cause I played bounty hunter as kid, but I prefer jango over boba.
I mostly agree but with a couple of exceptions:
Saw Guerrera sounds nu-wars as frick. I was actually shocked to learn he was a Clone Wars character at first.
Zorii Bliss is an excellent name. Shame she is.from the most moronic movi ever made. It's like she's a cameo fromba show that never existed.
It's like Jk Rowling having kino names and all the soulless trannies who hate on her having the most cringe shit ever in their fan fics
name ONE SINGLE character name in the Harry Potter franchise, I bet you can't.
Kingsley Shackledtoslaveships
Are you fricking moronic? Theres about 50 GOATed names.
Ching Chong
Ching Chong the chinawoman and Seamus Finnigan the IRA bomber
Gilderoy Lockhart
Albus Dumbledore
Lucius Malfoy
Bellatrix Lestrange
Sirius Black
Harry Potter
Star Wars is supposed to have a lot of east asian influence, sort of like a mix between samurai, cowboys, and nazis. Disney struggles to depict the nazis correctly let alone the other two, which is ironic given the prevalence of "anti-fascism".
For me it's Savage Oppress
Lucas letting his kids get involved was awful. Just saw yesterday that padawan that saved Bail in rotS was his son too.
Because George is a creative genius anon. I know he regrets selling

>Coleman Trebor
George was in the UK and saw Coleman's Mustard and Trebor Mints
Glup Shitto don’t fricking worry about it
It's probably genuinely the fact that George is intelligent and cultured, and was pulling all of those names from god knows where, in the recesses of his galaxy brain, and Disney writers are literally just stringing silly noises together.
Behold, the best name for any star wars character from Ep 3 onwards:
Bergstein Steinberg.
Bonus: gender neutral
The new guys running it are hyper-afraid of accidentally sounding racist and George isn't.
