Isn’t it that Old Ben was thinking of highly trained clones and had pretty much no stormtrooper experience in decades?

Like, he’d been living in a hunting the middle of a desert for 20 years intentionally staying away from anything dangerous.

Or maybe you don’t understand the difference?

Clone troopers were highly trained and sometimes specialist trained clones of jango.

In the other hand, storm troopers are human “recruits” that are trained by suboptimal clones or left over clone troopers.

They are entirely different armies that were parts of mostly entirely different wars.

and you HONESTLY think that was the plan at the time? That the storm troopers he was thinking of was the clone wars? That was already canon back then?

Or…did he just say ‘clone wars’ because it sounds spiffy and Lucas had absolutely zero thought put into it past that?

Sure why not? The universe he created was meant to be explored and opened up, he specifically avoided hemming himself into situations. They did a good job avoiding most retconning until Disney took over.

Sure lots was made up, but that’s literally what fiction is, so why are you upset about it…? Lmfao.

ah…you are taking this as an attack. thats why you think I’m upset. It’s all stupid fun dude. Pointing out stupid shit is just part of the fun. I like the movies as much as most of the people here.

But my original point stands. Lucas always just kinda…said things. Then the fans come along and (mostly in the books that don’t count anymore) and worked within what he said to flesh shit out for real. Then of course the prequel trilogy came out and he made up more shit to fit with what he said before. Some neat, like making the clone wars tie into the storm troopers…some we do not speak of.

It’s not an attack on your fandom and nobody is upset :)
