February speculation (MERGE)
I've seen hints, hints and speculation, that February will have something exciting to a large portion of the players: Revan. I'd love it if it were true, but I'm thinking if it's related to Revan at a...

Yea exactly what everyone wants. Horrible characters from TLJ. Barf.
No one said everyone but no one said no one.
Basically, speak for yourself. I want two more Res characters for my two Res teams.
Also I'd like Snoke and Hux.
Hux? Seriously? The emo Ron Weasley that was the laughing stock of the last movie? Yea he was such a badass character.
Ok, your dislike is noted. Thanks.
Some kind of justification for Hux would be interesting - I just don't see anything there that would be desirable to have as a toon, but maybe I'm missing something. Is he already desirable in a joke-like way similar to how many would want Jar Jar? He's almost like they took Dark Helmet's character from Space Balls and actually put it in a SW movie. That's what I get from the character, but what are you finding appealing? Not trying to debate, but just genuinely intrigued to hear a different view.
Because he was right. He led his army capably and managed his fleet well, he dogged after the Resistance and prevented their escape without throwing away his own ships needlessly. He's craven and he's going to survive whatever change in the political winds there might be, but he was right and he was good at his job as well.
Don't be sad-sad because he wasn't a boring, generic military villain.
Wow I guess people can see what they want in anything. I didn't want a debate or argument about opinions because there's no end, but since you're kinda being edgy about it....
Spoiler
The guy was an imb*cile and in no way in the movie did he manage his fleet well. He let Poe stall him and blow up a dreadnaught with a joke...and then had to be told he was being fooled by a generic officer despite Poe calling him General "Hugs" over and over....I went in with no expectations good or bad for this guy, so I wasn't "sad-sad" about anything. This has nothing to do with needing to be a typical villain...that's just massive incompetence. The movie led off with him being made a blatant fool and it cost his fleet a major ship and lives as well.
He doesn't really redeem himself in any notable way the rest of the movie and in fact the director continued to double-down on him being a weak whipping boy. Sure he must have done some good stuff offscreen to get in his position during the time between films, but on screen in TLJ he's a ninny. And again, not just because he physically gets thrown around by stronger characters, but also he is badly outwitted. He actually made me think he was the benefactor of the Peter Principle at work in space, because he seemed wholly incompetent at his job.
