So what will kids think of the new star wars saga?

Here's the real question, I mean one thing that strikes me is that we are getting a battlefront star wars game that has absolutely no prequel stuff in it at all and previews the new stuff from the new trilogy.

I'm down with that, don't have an issue with it. I hate the prequels. But sadly a whole gen of kids grew up on them and love them and view them as part of the whole star wars story.

So wtf are they going to think about the new game when they play it and it only acknowledges the OT alone.

They should retitle the game Star wars Battlefront Classic edition to kinda make it clear this star wars is about the OT films, and not about the whole star wars story as it is today.

Cuz yeah if I was a kid today imagine I love star wars, all the movies, and I go buy the game and I'm like wtf this is only about eps 4,5, 6 nothing from the first 3 episodes? I can't play as Jar Jar?

It will be massively confusing the way the new star wars movies will be percieved by children. I do believe JJ is intending to make these new movies have NOTHING to do with the prequels and stand as true sequels to the classic holy trilogy. I do indeed believe we'll hear nothing about midichlorians, quigon, or darth maul, or padme in the new films. They'll push forward with what we knew from the originals and ignore the prequels. So yeah a kid will be fucking really ass raping confused by the new status of star wars. How kinda self-hating it is. It does indeed start off with the over-the-top stupid prequel films, then gets back to basics with some funky 70s and 80s movies.

Then the new movies will be all big and epic and modern looking and for some reason be filled with anti-prequel attitude.

The prequels have become a cult film series sadly. I so wanted them to be legit beloved star wars movies, but they suck and now exist in a relm where you have to love them underground prettymuch. They're the outcast of the star wars movie series now.

I mean fucking straight up DICE and Co. decided NOT to acknowledge the fucking prequel era at all. That's how much those movies are getting shafted now. Not that I have a problem with that, but I did spend a hell of a lot of my childhood following every scrap of news about those movies. Kinda feels bad to just say well... nopes, never happened, not going to give a fuck about that trilogy. Fuck em...

Most likely they're not going to be that classless. They will probably offer a Prequel Era battle map pack down the line. This version they're making is honoring the classic films because they're simply that, classics. The prequels are not.

However, they can't possibly ignore the fact that kids grew up watching those movies and no matter how shitty they are, this game is for kids to play after a shitty day of school or something.

So yeah, little darth maul fanboy will get his chance to throw down as him in Battlefront. I mean it's a fucking videogame. It's about doing whatever you want to do whatever comes out your ass, it's not that serious a thing.

I mean, it's like the spiderman games have always done things. They allow you to play as all the other types of spidermans and even the villains after you beat the game. It's for fun that's all.

I do indeed wonder if maybe they're going to have a little prequel stuff in there just for the hell of it. Maybe it's unlockable. Or maybe they really seriously want to divorce star wars from those movies forever. What can I say. I just hope we get to play as sexy Aayala Secura as a unlockable thing or maybe slave leia.

Imagine that shit, playing as sexy ass bikin clad leia, oh hell yes....
