Except for Vader for some reason. Never made sense how Bacta can heal all kinds of shit but can't heal his lungs or skin.
Obviously it's because the Prequels had to make Vader's injuries be the result of burns and breathing in burning air, which should have been able to be healed, and not the OT, where it was either that Vader fell into lava (RotJ, EU) or that Vader simply had mysterious injuries that couldn't heal. Vader shouldn't have needed that suit almost two decades later just to breathe. I still laugh how Reva and the Grand Inquisitor can shrug off being impaled through the chest regularly, but Second Sister and Qui-Gon couldn't. As bad as Maul surviving cut in half but somehow Dark Side Master Snoke can't. luke. luke was beat the shit up by a wampa. the dunked him in bacta and for the most part, short of some facial scarring - which is expected in real life after some surguries- he was fine and no further bacta was needed. darth vader was cut in half and rolled around in a lava bed and was on fire. he breathed in some really hot air while he was rolling around in it. he's lost limbs. and the process of turning him into vader, post rolling around without half his body in a lava bed is a large part of his injuries. his suit was even built to cause him endless amounts of pain just to piss him off even more. so he has to live in bacta when he's not in his suit. bacta is like superficial type medical care. you soak in it for organic type stuff, skin, organs, muscle etc. it doesnt cure old age. it doesnt grow back bones. it heals the tissues. boba's injuries are also superficial. skin damage from the tattooine sun exposure for what, the week before the tuskens found him, and then after while they were dragging him around for whatever reason before they robed him up. im sure they even treated his skin damage after they made him part of the group. he doesnt need to live inside of bacta like they're making him out to be. this is making an excuse for using a 60 year old to play a man in his 40's. i turn 39 in a few days, my back is shit, but i dont walk around like i need a walker near by and if i had a jet pack i would use the shit out of that thing. they're just pretending people arent going to notice how drastically different the actor's age is from what he's supposed to be by dunking him into the magic water tank and not directly referencing how old he's supposed to be. boba fart is a pussy. i want every part of me to write off whatever happens in book of bumble fart in my mind, and just say "ok, he became a successful daimyo and has a rancor for a pet he rides sometimes." because the ride to that point is total and complete bullshit. i mean, i've already forgotten most of it anyway so it's nto that much of a stretch. the grand inquisitor death was stupid. "by the way, im not even dead!" ok...so...i knew he wasnt going to be, but, i just cant process this because it's just so stupid knowing how that world is supposed to work. they "killed" him, rather than the sister that's not important, to make reva look awesome, rather than a chump that killed a guy with plot armor who "died" off screen. reva's "arc" (if you want to call it one) is garbage. "im bad!" "i was a youngling feel bad for me!" "im gonna go kill a kid of some dirt farmer on a desert planet and i dont know why because the message was garbled up!" garbage. im definitely not going to watch her spin off show. quigon died from that stab because he gave himself up to the force. it was pretty much everyone's fault after phantom menace for not doing anything with him doing that exact thing. he showed up once in clone wars as a ghost, and then in kenobi. i dont even remember why he was a ghost in clone wars. maul was cut in half, so was vader so i believe it. snoke was a failed clone or whatever and i dont care. i like some sequel stuff, i dont like other stuff.

Maybe there are limits to what can heal and the severity of the wound? Grand Inquisitor had two stomachs so maybe that had something to do with it. Some Salamanders and grow back legs and the Axolotl can grow back parts of the brain as long as the severity is not that bad. Is bacta like a super healer or is there limits to what it can do? How could it heal lungs without actually being inhaled?
i dont know anything about him having two stomachs. they didnt say "by the way, i have two stomachs! idiot!" and they didnt reference that before for his species before (that i know or care to look up right now). Quote:
lol The problem is, it was always a buncha lazy writing "from a certain point of view". You read mythology and you see just how "lazy" Lucas was (if you want to call it lazy). I mean, he just borrowed. And dialog was never his strong suit. I cut all this a lot of slack because it was never the greatest writing, it obviously was a work in progress with a lot subsequent retconning, and because it just doesn't matter for pop entertainment. So long as they make entertaining popcorn flicks that delight and surprise, I'm good.
Speaking of bad writing, those EU/Timothy Zahn books are laughably bad writing, but nerds love 'em so it's all good. i havent read many of the books. just the modern comics, han solo at stars end, and most of the first book of the han solo trilogy. i just dont have the patience for book readin. my exposure to thrawn was rebels, and he was so bad at his job, not even living up to everything i've read about him - that i thought he was a rebel sympathizer. i get cartoons kind of nerfing people but he was so damn terribly not thrawn. i overall absolutely love the rebels cartoon. it's why i like star wars again. whoever stuck in this long, thanks for reading.

I'm just glad Cad Bane has like two hearts or something, because now there is precedent that he could survive ala Two Stomachs Grand Inquisitor.
Further shows how stupid Reva is that she didn't even know the biology of the GI to make sure he was dead! |

And of course, Jacen Solo eating take out in a bathtub and laughing like a nut. Actually, so much of Jacen. Between Boba Fett severely wounding him in a duel and Jaina tossing needles into his face to defeat him, they ruined that character. |

as much as i hated cad bane dying in that shitty show, i dont know how i feel about him coming back on the same excuse they can use for han solo if they felt like it. you're right, it's also stupid as hell that she didnt know the biology of the guy she wanted to kill. they should be expected to have that particular type of training being so high up in the empire. it's not like he could keep that a secret from anyone because there's an entire race of his people farting around not being vampires on a neon mushroom planet. that scene was terrible and it shows even more that it should have been another inquisitor she "killed." |

You know, I always get the feeling with TVC and Retro that they have a lot more planned than they ever follow through with. I think it's just that they have to produce what's currently "hot" and that supersedes the original plan. Like the Retro line not producing a ROTJ wave because making fake-retro Mando figures became the priority.
