Full Series No Romance between Main Characters Plz

I really don't want to see romance between the main characters. It would waste time, perhaps create stupid love tingles, and just waste scenes that could have been used for something that is actually beneficial.

I don't mind if there is romance between a main character and a minor one (as long if it is not overdone/stupid), but please writers, no romance between the mains. The writers may be tempted to do this, especially with a female twilek on board the Ghost, but I prefer if they created strong/unique relationships between the crew, without heading into romance realm (though even if that was the case, im sure there would be stupid shipping done by fans).

 

Well, it's a Greg Weisman show, so I'm going to say that it's a given that there will be romantic subplots between main characters. There's really no chance of it not happening. I'm also not the least bit worried about that, considering his body of work speaks for itself when it comes to writing relationships. And done well, romantic relationships aren't a waste of time at all, but rather a means of further fleshing out who these characters are as people.

 

As long as it isn't a clichéd conservative American model of romance.

Ugh.


Perhaps we'd see a LGBT relationship, though I'm not holding my breath.

 

I feel like Star Wars fans sometimes have this hatred for romantic plots/sub-plots and I think thats due in large part due to the horrendous job GL did writing the Romance in AOTC - seriously, the only reason that the audience actually understands that its a romance going on is because of Williams' score. Otherwise, I think the prevailing theme/feeling of the film (up until the wedding really) would be that of awkward creepiness. If done correctly, romance can really help flesh out characters - but it shouldn't be injected just to have romance, it should feel like its coming from somewhere real. If done well, I have nothing against romantic plots/sub-plots.

 

Personally, I'd much rather have romance between main characters than an endless string of love-interests-of-the-week.

 

This.

And this.
I kind of expect Weisman to have some sort of queer relationship or character, even if network restrictions and **** won't let him come right out and say it on screen, just imply and then confirm it in tie-ins or online. He did it with Gargoyles way back (and under Disney, too) and again just recently with Young Justice, so I honestly wouldn't even be surprised.

 

I voted yes for romance. It is always interesting and bring something to the story look at AOTC and ROTS and ESB.

 

Well I can't vote on my phone, so let me say this:

I wouldn't mind a decent love story. I just want it to be too "Disney-ish". Most of those go: boy meets girl, they date, boy does something stupid, girl dumps him, boy does something to show he "really loves her", they get back together, and they're "so in love."

Please, nothing sappy, this is war, you need to grow up quickly and focus here. Love needs to be serious, not silly.

I have always hated that brand of love story...mostly because I'm a boy and thus find myself offended. Why can't it be the girl who does something stupid for once (no offense, girls)?

 

Yes there should be, but hopefully it won't be too simple and boring.

 

I agree with you OP. Why does every action movie/TV show need to have a romance? That's a part of why I liked the first Hobbit movie so much - the lack of romance made it feel fresh.

 

If there must be romance, let their be new John Williams. But, that's way too much to ask for.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!

Honestly I hope this is what Rebels gives us so I can read more comments like this.

 

I would like to see a relationship in rebels between a man and woman that is not a romantic one.

We had that in TCW between Anakin and Ahsoka, but it was easier for that to happen because.....

1. Anakin canon wise is married/in love with only his Angel.
2. Canon wise though Anakin is a killer, including that of children, at least he doesn't cheat on women (prefers chocking anyways).
3. Ahsoka and him are Jedi

However with Rebels we do not have to have any of those constraints, the characters of the Ghost ship are new EU characters, therefore they do not have to have any romantic/ideological/canon baggage that would prevent them from hooking up with someone they spend a lot of time with on the Ghost.

Now I think there is a possibility that there will be romance between 2 main characters in Rebels, but even if that was the case, I still hope the writers also develop a strong/unique relationship between a man and woman, that does not fall into the sexual/romantic realm.

 

The only way I'll tolerate a relationship on this show is if begins with a shotgun wedding performed by a drunk Hondo Ohnaka.

 

This just made me picture the scene in the underground tunnels from Enemy at the Gates...oh if only Star Wars did something like that on DisneyXD

 

I went for maybe. Only because if they do it,it should be with characters from the empire, not the Rebels. Yes, I know the show is called Rebels, but for crap sakes, why can the Imperial people have lives as well?

 

I voted yes, I don't mind some romance.

 

Well I wasn't speaking about sex, after all this is a Disney show. I meant two Imperials. You don't see many women on the Imperial side, except for Juno Eclipse, and that's from a video game. Although a romance between an Imperial and a Rebel would be interesting. It would probably make for some interesting conflict.

 

I voted maybe. I'm fine with romance being in the show as long as its handled in a restrained manner and doesn't overtake any of the show's other elements. I don't mind something like Character A hooking up with Character B as long as Characters A & B get character development outside of the whole romantic sphere.

Also: No Onderon style love triangles in Rebels please.

Personally, I happen to like the whole idea of there being a potential romantic relationship between an Imperial and a Rebel.

 

I voted maybe. If romance or even the dreaded love triangles benefit the plot and character development, then avoiding it on arbitrary grounds seems a bit too high up the autism scale for me.
