    The name 'Montross' was finally assigned to a bounty hunter, so not sure if the name will be used again for a live-action project. I was half-sure it was re-purposed in The Clone Wars cartoon for another fringe character?

    That's the bunny, SWToyscapes. That page includes the following:

    "Tyranus offered Montross a chance to hunt the rogue Jedi Komari Vosa, leader of the Bando Gora cult, for a bounty of five million credits. He was not the only one to receive the offer, though, and amongst his competitors was Jango Fett, who had become a bounty hunter himself in the intervening years. Unknown to either of them, the winner of the competition would also be the prime clone for a clone army that Tyranus was building."

    EDIT: I can't find any reference to a Montross in TCW, but if you can please share a link. Thanks.

    I'm bringing "Lost" into this

    Jack takes Jacobs gig of "Good Guy" Island protector.

    Jack defeats the island's "Evil" protector MIB/Smoky/Floke
    Jack is mortally wounded & Hugo takes Jack's GIg.

    Balance to the force
    doesn't mean that the force has had balance brought to it.

    Luke like Hurley are both left in the same position.
    Good has defeated Evil

    There can't be evil without good
    There can't be good without evil
    Backgammon
    2 players White Stone /Black Stone

    Eliminating one completely would make things unstable.

    Hurley & Luke were both left w/similar gigs & similar situations.

    The gig of being the island's protector once belonged to just one.
    That makes her Grey

    Luke inherit the same gig after ROTJ ?
    I say no.
    Rule Of 2
    Never heard a Sith say that was Sith Law.

    I see 3 possibilities

    •Darth Plagious was the REAL Phantom Menace
    • Didn't Luke have a force sensitive twin sister who was into politics...
    •Plagious & Sidious did create Anikan... Shimi Skywalker had twins and there's another Skywalker family line that we haven't met

    That is the current conjecture, I believe...

    The concept art we have for Montross was actually (I believe) from the original film, he was to be a character in ANH (back when it was just called Star Wars) but didn't make the final version

    Hmmm... that would explain the nose ring and eyebrow piercing...

    The Montross that was originally slated for ANH is what the concept art is about... the backstory, I believe, is now non-canon, as the character was never used.

    Thanks, Tidmadt. Are you saying the Montross concept art is a bum-steer, that it is old stuff that doesn't relate to TFA at all?

    Unknown... it was included with the other leaked concept artwork, but seems to fit the character we believe MvS is playing... so it is possible that the character is built off that unused concept...

    With that being said... whether MvS's character is based on Montross the concept for ANH, or the "legend" that grew up after that... crapshot...

    Interesting. Hearing that is old art explains a lot to me. After seeing it, I dug out my old copy of "The Art of Heavy Metal" (a companion to the 1981 animated film) because I was CERTAIN I recognized it from there. I didn't find it, of course; but it did seem of that earlier era, if you know what I mean. In fact, I didn't like it at all, tbh. Just didn't seem SW somehow.

    Me neither. Odd, as I did lately associate the name with a character in the TCW cartoon, but maybe it was one of my semi-senile moments.

    Nope, I never confirmed any Inquisitor rumors. Quite the opposite. When this rumor hit the web my source told me that it's very far from the truth.

    Viral, are you saying Inquisitors are likely to feature somehow?

    On several occasions it was mentioned that this word was never used on the set. But I honestly don't know.

    roflmao... go back and read the thread! :)

    He misread my post thinking I had said that he said something he didn't say... but when he re-read it he realized he had said what I really said he said...

    Clear?

    Hey hey! I said that first.... You guys can claim credit for guessing plot points, beard lengths, and exact times the Force got out of bed, but this one's mine!

    Don't make me put half a Vader mask on and dig up the thread!! Haha. I am not above necrobumping for glory!

    Ok, no problem! I don't want to rob anyone their merits. Perhaps we should start to pay you royalties.
    Besides, since I'm not native English speaker, I'm sure that I'm using that line when isn't relevant. Maybe not even funny. But it's funny on my convoluted mind...
