Filoni found a loophole around it by introducing a female sith whose spirit was sealed in a Holocron which is ironic since it was Filoni who enforced the notion that siths couldn't have ghosts, rather than George.

No. Filoni was just as apprehensive as George about using the scene featuring the sith ghosts and he and George decided not to use it. Filoni was a pushover who did whatever George told him to. Even Genndy wasn't such a bootlicker and did what he wanted.

I don't see anything wrong with Sith ghosts because in KOTOR you meet Ajunta Pall in his tomb and that guy was a real jerk. I have a problem with this obvious ploy to get people who jumped ship back on.

I don't think Ajunta Pall was a Force Ghost the same way Obi-Wan was. He was bound to the tomb and not really aware how much time had passed or that he was even dead.

Another thing to note is that Palpatine's ghost in Dark Empire had no real form. It was just a dark little red light that could fizzle out at any moment. Most sith ghosts had to bind themselves to a physical location, object or living host (even the Sith Emperor was limited in some regard), whilst jedi/light side spirits were absolutely free, omnipresent and gifted with a higher sense of awareness and peace. So the elimination of sith/dark side ghosts felt like a terrible idea since them binding themselves to object showed that their spirits were vulnerable and corrupted and could not exist by themselves, thus not retconning George's view on spirits. But again, Filoni was just a faggot who didn't dare to go against his superiors unlike past authors and it was the rest of his staff who were responsible for the actual quality in his series and he was more of an autist than George could ever hope to be.

most sith ghosts existed in the games which were only canon to bare extents, imo ajunta pall was more like the fake bane in clone wars, a security system put in to protect the tomb.

It was initially first enforced in the novelization of Revenge of the Sith in 2005 by Qui-Gon and presumably upon George's request. However this didn't stop authors and other content creators from doing it and finding loopholes that didn't dissatisfy George. Even in the 1991 Dark Empire comic was praised by George for being the closest thing to a sequel trilogy in his eyes, and it works since Palpatine and siths don't have spirits like the jedi do, instead using the "essence transfer" technique, showing that George wasn't uncompromising on the issue (at least at the time). Filoni liked the idea even less than George and even said that removing it was "the right thing to do". Its all in the DVD commentary of the Ghosts of Mortis episode. Does anyone have a link or something of the episode with commentary? I really don't want to try and mess around with my DVD unless as a last resort.

At best it could be that Kylo discover's Sheev's holocron which serves as a kind of confrontation because it's programmed with his personality. That's assuming anybody still on the story group remembers or understands that part of the lore instead of trying to find somewhere to insert space pederasty.

Emphasis on "they were bound there". They were not complete force spirits like the jedi/light side spirits. They merely infused their essence into that locations, items or people. They were basically prisoners. So it was a good way to work around the issue without going against George's tism. It just goes to show how much of a pushover pleb Filoni was.

>implying that the Dark Side doesn't act as a weight/blockage of the 'Light Side' (the actual natural form of the Force) and that the Jedi have any actual weight in it's flow
Retard, that's not how the Force works.
<inb4 jedisperg
Look at my flag, the Dark Side inhibiting the Force's natural flow isn't really a bad thing since the Force is a cunt that sacrifices billions of innocent lives in convoluted autism-fueled plots and plans that span decades to come to fruition.
Example;
>be Force
>Sith are stronger than ever with the Rule of 2
>have your flow getting kinda fucked
>come up with a way to solve this
>solution is to have a slave woman on some backwater planet get knocked up by nothing and produce the most powerful force user of all time so he can be abused and mentally scarred by a shitty life before getting picked up by space monks and poorly trained at their gay temple
<allow a massive war to get started by the Sith who you hate because they hurt you
<allow billions, probably trillions of innocents to get dabbed on by an insanely costly war
>have your psycho baby sperg out and annihilate the Jedi, a group dedicated to helping you
>have the Sith you hate take over for a bit
>have them rule like dickheads
>have your psycho baby who's now a horrific cripple's kid grow up to kick the Sith's ass
>finally be free of the Dark Side polluting you
That's how the Force gets shit done. The only solution is to break its back for being a colossal cunt

Indeed, its not the same, yet Filoni still refused to have them in regard as wraiths, which was stupid. Disney however probably won't be as creative. I mean we're also getting a Vader force ghost (not Anakin) so they're probably gonna do to him what SWTOR did to Revan… Either that or this is all just empty hype and its gonna be Sheev's mental imprint in a sith holocron. Its funny how only now they've decided to bring back shit from the lore when its already to late and the franchise's setting has been fucked beyond belief. Fuck you Abrams, Rian, Kennedy, whoever fucking else.

The only shit that matters are the 6 films that Lucas made, everything else is garbage if it doesn't conform to George's themes. Anakin brought balance by wiping out the corrupt Jedi order, and by wiping out the Sith. Luke went on to create a better Jedi Order that was in harmony with the force as one can see in the Jedi Knight games, like Jedi Academy.
