Long live the Expanded Universe! Long live Legends!

One of the few times I will be glad of headcanon for something.

Now this I didn't know. I just thought that the helmet didn't fit him properly ('short for a stormtrooper') or he was wearing it wrong out an understandable of inexperience with Stormtrooper gear.

We're talking Legends, not Disney's schlock. That and I think Disney doesn't want to show people getting blown to bits in a kids tv show.

...well, I suddenly feel a lot better about my accuracy in various games that track such things. :P

At least in legends, Imperial Stormtrooper armor was bulletproof.

Dooku gets political.

Won’t buy anything that will fill Disney’s pockets if I can help it.

I think him being genuine works better. Also, given how the Force is sort of a stand in/interpretation through Eastern concepts of the Will of God, it makes him a fitting villain for the secularist and nay-theistic age we live in. Edit: missed some words. Also, for extra fun, make said...

It’s canon. Remember this? “They are totally obedient, taking any order without question. We modified their genetic structure to make them less independent then then the original host.” No magic chip needed. In fact, prior to TCW, outside of the ARC Troopers and Commandos, the Clones were...

No it wasn’t. What part of ‘a series of contingency orders’ is zany?

And completely made up for CTW and deliberately contradicting not only at-the-time canon Legends lore but Attack of the Clones as well.

That and he’s honest about it. At least I don’t think he’s ever pretended to be someone he isn’t as a director.

Honestly? While I’m not so sure about the weapons, I do like the more armored version of Grievous. At the very least I always thought Grevious's organs in his chest were a little too exposed then they should have been.

Considering how messed up the New Republic is in canon and how badly it botched stuff on occasion even in Legends (along with the stupid ‘no Star destroyers’ and similar), I can’t blame the Confederates.

That’s TCW lore about the Malevolence. Also, I’ve seen some valid points to be made about Dooku being a Jedi who left the order but not being a Sith would allow for a more nuanced story telling.

And you see why I like the idea of the CIS that wasn’t a Sith puppet.

Interesting

Good stuff. He did a nice video on Cobra from GI Joe as well.

That and you could have a neo-Confederacy of Independent Systems* that’s not a Sith puppet. Particularly in regards to the ‘outer rim getting sick of taking orders from Core Worlds/ Courscant’ angle. I think part of the problem we have, especially in the Disney version but the EU also had this...
