Events EUC Interview Thread: Now Interviewing Jedi Knight Fett!

6. Three? That's a way too few. I think if I could only ever listen to three albums, it would have to be The Wall (Pink Floyd), Soviet Kitsch (Regina Spektor) and August and Everything After (Counting Crows). But if it were a top ten albums list, Bob Dylan would probably occupy the other seven spots, and the fact that he doesn't occupy the top three is mostly because I have his best albums committed to memory more or less note for note. King of the Delta Blues Singers (Robert Johnson) also gets an honorable mention.

7. I would have my own theme music that would fit whatever situation or emotional state I was in. And everyone else would be able to hear it too.

8. Probably Yoda so that he could teach me how to use the force, and because he wouldn't eat much.

9. Well "attended" is a stretch. I mean, I was there, but I didn't pay attention. I make a pretty good spaghetti though so I guess that.

10. Hockey. I'm a Dallas Stars fan to an obnoxious degree and the Tampa Bay Lightning are a solid #2. Also I don't play sports and you know that so don't patronize me. You're within arm's reach and I know you don't like being pinched.

11. Well it started when I posted a thread about the time I electrocuted myself with the power cable for a router by pressing it to my tongue. Then there was the time I tried to fit my teeth around the rim of a Coca Cola can and they got stuck when my jaw cramped. Then I stood in front a microwave once and my forehead went numb where it was aligned with the crease of the door. Then there was the time on new years' eve when my sister almost set my hair on fire with a sparkler bomb. Apparently one time I lit gum on fire and then chewed it but I don't even remember that one exactly. So jp-30 decided to take bets on how long I would live.

12. Five words?

Night Herald of the Sith

13. The United States in 1945. Post WWII we were just coming into an amazing period in the country's history - culturally, technologically, economically. Technology from that time still seems futuristic to me, aesthetic-wise. Between the 1945 and 1978 the future came and went. Before the dark times. Before the 1980s.

14. Warning: Product Has Escalation Problems

15. Marry my wife.

Because I'll never divorce her

 

Lady Belligerent: *accepts the mic* Thanks, my lady.

Darth_wanderguard: Have you been dangerously curious since your experiment with the power cord?

 

Well it's not curiosity related but there was one time when I was rappelling down a shaft inside of an oil rig column. I had a habit of connecting my extra gloves to my rescue harness to the ring at my waist using a keychain carabiner. Well, once I climbed over the rail, loaded up the line and was nearly horizontal with nothing but 50 ft of air and a steel floor below me, I realized that I had hooked my main line not to the ring, but to the non-rated carabiner. I looked down to start lowering myself and saw the carabiner separating. I managed to grab the rail and pull myself up before it slipped off but it gave us all s good scare. I at least had a safety line but it was static rope with several feet of slack and it was hooked under my leg. So I wouldn't have died but I would have ruined my back for sure.

Then there was the time I was in a gas plant in Hobbs, NM and an untrained back-hoe driver ran into an overhead pipe and popped a wheelie. It was a 600 PSI fuel line! Had it burst we would have probably all died. Again not due to curiosity but a somewhat near-death experience regardless.

 

What, now Legend, non-humans species that have never gotten any real description would you like to know more about?

Which one of the new non-human races we have seen in TFA and the NEU would you like to know more about?

Which background character in TFA deserve to get his story told?

 

Truth be told that first one is awfully specific and no examples are really coming to mind.

To your second question, in general I didn't find the aliens in TFA all that interesting but Maz Kanata would be the most obvious choice.

The answer to your third question is TR-8R, clearly.

 

What did you think of the clothes/fashion we saw in TFA?
What fictional culture would you like to see used as an inspiration in SW and how?

What real life culture would you like to see used as an inspiration in SW and how?

What non-Star Wars species would you like to see implanted into Star Wars?

What now Legend non-jedi, non-sith Force tradition would you like to see in the new EU?

 

I actually liked it a lot. I found the costumes to be unique enough but to still look very "Star Warsy," Kylo Ren's getup especially. I liked Luke's threads even though I wonder how they managed to be so perfectly clean and pressed given the circumstances. The one thing that did bother me was that Luke's outfit seemed to reinforce the goofy prequel/RotJ notion that the tan robes Ben Kenobi wore on Tatooine must have been the traditional Jedi garb. It would have made more sense to me if Ben wore them because they blended in with what Tatooine commoners wore. I could rant for days about the hackish things that started popping up in Star Wars as soon as Lucas took the full creative reins.

Fictional culture? Probably the gnomes from World of Warcraft. A highly technological, industrious race of small stature seems like it would fit well in Star Wars.

I've always appreciated how Aztec and Egyptian culture seemed to heavily influence the ancient Sith. The Aztec part especially makes them seem far more toughened and a bit scary.

Cthulhu and the entire Lovecraftian pantheon. Hard to define as a race, but they're some kind of aliens anyway. We've sort of tried to do that in the New Sith Trials which is fun, but it would be nice to see some canonical stuff.

I would like to see some attention given to the dark Jedi of the first great schism. Would be a way for Disney to expand the lore by exploring and canonizing ancient history.

 

Baneite Sith vs One Sith vs Lost Tribe of the Sith. Who wins?

 

What's your favorite Star Wars movie?

 

None. The EUC Sith Empire outclasses them all

Favorite Star Wars movie? The original theatrical cut of Star Wars. And no, I will not call it "A New Hope" or "Episode IV".

 

What comics do you read?

Who is best dressed in SW?

Favourite non-human species and why?

Favourite SW culture?

If you could change something in the old canon, what would it be?

What would you want to see more of in SW?

Not to sound like a besserwisser but I said non-Jedi.

 

Hmmm... Is a dark Jedi really a Jedi? Sounds like a philosophical question to me...

 

For this question: yes.

 

Do you like superhero movies?

 

I don't read comics. I don't have anything against them but they're not really my thing, I guess. I do like the stories told in the Star Wars Marvel comics though.

Best dressed? Darth Revan.

I like Kel Dor - I've always been a big Plo Koon fan ever since I saw him.

I think I would chunk SW:TOR and replace it with a more proper KotOR 3.

Classic imperial and classic Yavin rebel aesthetics. As much as I love Jedi and Sith and lightsabers and the force, to me the essence of Star Wars is Rebels vs. Imperials.

Davak24: they're okay. I enjoy some of them but I'm not a huge fan of superhero movies as a genre. I don't really care for the style of filmmaking.

 

What do you do for a living? How long? Do you enjoy it?

 

My career is in occupational safety, and I've worked in that capacity in multiple industries; construction, petroleum, and now manufacturing. I've also done emergency response/high-angle rope rescue work alongside safety. I've been in safety for around four years now, and I enjoy it a lot. Lots of problem solving and variety in tasks and skill set required. My dad was an OSHA inspector so I guess I come by it naturally.

 

Are you insane?




And I guess I should ask your wife that same question.

 

What exactly tells you that I might be insane?

 

Belligerent tells us.
