We have more canon content right now than there was when the first Zahn book came out, and the three years following that. It took well into a decade for the PT to invigorate EU authors to pump shit out like crazy, so we have to wait at least that long for it to happen again.

>>
>>93842288
Yes. I understand that we are still in the nucanon's infancy, but I feel like we are not getting enough content outside of Rebels. We are getting far more novels than the mid 90's, but it still hasn't reached the heights of the mid-2000's, when LucasArts was practically shitting new things out every week across every front. We have exactly 1 real game 3 years in, with another game, the sequel, set for release during the holidays. Maybe I'm just spoiled from reading weekly manga for so many years, but it feels like the comics are releasing at a snail's pace as well.

It's not the end of the world for me. but I sort of miss being overwhelmed with star wars material.

I think the problem is that they're making it so based around the saga films. Like we're never going to just get a random little story like Shatterpoint, it always has to contribute something to the backstory of the movies. They need to do more stories like a little 2 issue comic about a Sith during the time of Darth Bane, or a short story about one of Luke's Jedi, or a book about some random Clone Trooper squad you've never heard of before.

I'm actually going to double down on Gaillus Rax being the guy who "Snoke" possessed, as it explains a LOT

>how did a giant alien guy appear out of nowhere and take complete control over the First Order and its leader? simple, it's still technically "the same guy"
>Gaillus's blue eyes are hammered in, Snoke's blue eyes are hammered in to the point where his lego figure is the only lego in existence to have blue eyes
>supposedly an alien, but has zero alien features at all besides extended limbs (fingers, legs for height) and body distortion

I'm going to bet ten bucks that he's something they unearthed in the Outer Regions and possessed Gaillus, and either over the years or almost instantly distorted his body. That's why everyone follows him regardless of him changing his name or dressing weirdly/turning into mister ugly. If we get a Indiana Jones/American Werewolf tier body horror scene that shows flashback Gaillus morphing into Snoke it'll be an instant classic, and props if he possesses Snoke or Kylo at the end of Episode 8 and turns them ugly too.

>supposedly an alien
All it takes to be an alien is be a different species from the norm. On earth, that's humans, obviously, so any ayy is an alien to us. Snoke being an alien just means he isn't 1:1 normal human as we've already seen. It takes very little for that to happen.
>>
>>93842507
I think the reason there isn't as huge of an influx of material is because of the story group. To my understanding, the old EU was basically the wild west where authors could release any kind of story they wanted set in the Star Wars universe and Lucasfilm could iron out the continuity later. Nowadays everything has to be carefully monitored so it is all tied together. The latter makes for a much more unified and satisfying story, but it's at the expense of a large amount of content and creativity.

I personally love it. It makes the whole universe feel alive and connected, where everything is a tiny part of a massive whole, and anything can come back. Rogue One was full of references from other parts of the canon, for one. I think this is massively preferable over something like the MCU where only the movies are absolute canon - here, everything feels important.

Droid Landing ship. The droids are waaaay more packed in there and are probably much more capable of sending out more forces more rapidly compared to what the Republic could do.

I bet living in the outer rim would be hell as a few landing ships could overrun any undefended city and force a disproportionate amount of Republic resources to liberate the area.

I'm betting if there was no Sheev interference and the CIS forces were allowed to do whatever they wanted they would have won the attrition game by a huge margin. Just imagine a landing ship showing up and forcing the local population to make a basic droid factory. The Republic had a bigger navy but they couldn't cover every planet at once.

It would depend on whether or not the Death Star is mainly superstructure.

If it's simply protected by an outer hull, you simply send the fleet on a specific section and disable it's defenses until they can no longer target you unless the death star is equipped with some sort of projectile that rotates. Then you set the fleet on orbit then focus fire and tear a hole through it's hull. after that you'll probably disable an entire section of the ship.

If the Hull is backed by several destroyers worth of armor / structure, then you could could spend weeks trying to melt through it with little success.

I actually kinda like this smol pod. The troop transport itself is cobbled together from various assorted craft, so jury rigging the cabin section into a scout craft makes some sense.

Also I want MK2 B-Wings to actually appear so badly. If anything should be recycled from the OT it's them, now that the bluescreen issues that stopped them from being used to full potential are no longer an issue.

There's this guy who keeps posting the most ridiculous misconceptions about the star wars universe (why didn't they just test EVERYONES midi count; Dooku didn't say the one influencing the council wasn't a senate member, things like that) He gets regularly BTFO, and when he responds, he strawmans and doesn't acknowledge the arguments against him, instead repeating something that he thinks makes him right (secret =/= illegal; he posted this dozens of times) and it's easy to tell him by his strawmanning, not understanding basic film conventions, and his spacing.

The best part was when he said 'N-No you!' when I told him to provide evidence, as though his positive claim was already objectively true, even though he hadn't proved it. I shouldn't be surprised he doesn't understand the basic tenants of debate, yet, here we are. He easily could have given a few characters that aren't the best, hell, he could have even said JarJar and I would have accepted it through the movies alone (I assume he's the same MOVIES ONLY guy) but he didn't even do that.

it's one thing not to like everything in a franchise (Lord knows how much of the EU I despise) but holy fuck you can't have any claim to being a genuine fan if you don't even TRY to watch such a huge piece of media

If I claim to be a fan of something, but don't bother to follow up on new media projects, I'm not really a fan. I get what you're saying but it simply isn't so. My entire positive experience with Batman, consists of the Adam West movie, the 4 Burton/Schumacher movies, The Animated Series, and the opening scene of The Dark Knight Rises. I cannot really stand anything else. Do I really get to call myself a Batman fan if I hate most Batman content except for some nostalgia goggles kino and a /tv/ meme? I mean it's sort of different with regards to canon in Star Wars and the continual versions and reboots in traditional cape comics, but still; grey jedi. There's no such thing. It's like a grey fan. "Oh I love Star Wars, but I hate ROTJ and the prequels." That's not a real star wars fan, even if it's an exaggerated comparison.
>>
>>93845818
You're allowed to have your opinions on films. They didn't like the prequels? That's their own prerogative. You're gatekeeping what makes a real fan and what doesn't. I thought I agreed with you, but you seem a bit too militaristic in your hobbies. I hate normies as much as the next guy, but I can still have conversations with them about Star Wars. If they have a thought out opinion on why they don't like something, then that's just theirs. Film is a very subjective medium.
If you like classic batman you're a batman fan. You're allowed to be. Stop acting as though you have some kind of superiority because you like more than someone else.

does ANYONE have scans or at least access to the German Rebels comics? the one that we label Rebels UK in the mega is actually an English translation in the now-defunct Rebels Magazine that was published in Brtain, but the comics are still ongoing (and getting TPBs!) in Germany

these are the ones that never got translated to English:

Always Bet on Chop
The Second Chance
The Ballad of 264
The Line of Duty
A Time to Survive
Too Late to Change
The Size of the Fight
The Wrong Crowd
Off the Rails
To Thy Metal Heart Be True
Sons of the Sky

this is precious canon material that has not been translated into English, which is quite unfair since the franchise is American with a ton of British involvement

A fan by definition is someone fanatical about something.

Not the other guy, just agree with him. I'm not a LOTR fan. I love the movies, and have watched them a dozen times. But I've never touched the books, the side material, and I hate the Hobbit. I do not consider myself a Tolkien/LOTR fan.

If you like Star Wars, except it turns out you only like 1/3rd of the movies and little-to-no other official media, then are you a REALLY fanatical about Star Wars?

This might seem silly to you, but to the people who passionately live and breath all aspects of Star Wars, it can be frustrating to see the views of "the fans" being treated as equally valid (if not more so) to theirs, when they actually LIKE the content being discussed.

IE; Yes, A Star Wars fan who likes the Prequels IS going to feel like a bigger fan that someone who claims to be a fan, but then shits on the Prequels, because the fan is on the side of actually defending the media they are fanatical about.
>>
>>93846024
>This might seem silly to you, but to the people who passionately live and breath all aspects of Star Wars
That's me, famingo. And I like more and more people watching star wars and going 'wow that's pretty cool' instead of telling them they aren't a true fan because they don't like what I have dictated as prerequisite media to be fanatical about to be a fan. I like people forming their own opinions instead of them being told they HAVE to like something to be considered a fan.
>>
>>93846020
fan has a literal definition, I don't know how you can be a fan of something if you don't like it
like if somebody liked all the star wars EU, but none of the canon content whatsoever, are they really star wars fans when the EU was never really star wars to begin with? if anything that's a "no true scotsman" because you're judging a "fan" by what his definition of the media is instead of the actual producers of the media

they DO have to like something to be considered a fan of that something
that's the literal definition of a fan, you're not a fan of something if you don't like it, and certainly not if you don't even bother to partake in the fandom and say you are, which is why fake gamers are hated, because they don't even play video games but think they're entitled to opinions on them
>>
>>93846064
Nobody, including my post, is saying you have to like EVERYTHING.

But ruling out the Prequels is pretty major. Until 2015, that was literally 50% of the movies. Ruling out TCW, Rebels, and the books/comics is basically half the franchise, if not more. Hell there are "fans" that don't even like ROTJ.

When you only like 2/8 movies, and none of the Canon media, can you truly be considered a fan? I'd say that's a hard 'no'.

Disliking the Prequel Era is a pretty significant thing too, because you're essentially ruling out the entire side of the franchise that doesn't just follow the ANH/ESB aesthetics with X-Wings and TIE Fighters. Star Wars is more than just the OT, as JJ and so many others fail to understand. If you only like the OT-reminiscent side of things, are you truly a fan then? That's still very debatable, because that rules out at least 50% of Canon media right there.

Do you see the problem here? The main argument for being a "true fan" while still hating large portions of the series is;

>I don't have to like everything!

But is that really a valid excuse when you only like 60%... 50%.. 40% of the series or less?
>>
>>93846138
By that logic, most of the Star Wars "fans" on the internet that like shitting their opinions everywhere, are just "ANH/ESB fans".

And it wouldn't be so bad if they just admitted that, rather than pretending they know what Star Wars is/should be.

They would be just as bad as OTfags then. It's simply ridiculous to hate half the franchise and claim to be a huge Star Wars fan.

With that said though, let's not pretend such a group of people exist. People who defend the PT are almost always doing it under the pretense that the OT is still better. Rarely will you ever hear anybody say the PT is equal to the OT, and the people who think the PT is better are basically an silent minority. They'd be downvoted to oblivion for trying to hold that opinion outside of an anonymous forum.

There is no significant "only my half of the movies is REAL Star Wars" Prequel fanbase like there is for the OT. Prequelfags just seem more tolerant of all aspects of Star Wars, not opposed to the OT.

Now that I think about it, the Sonic community is actually way worse than Star Wars with this, this is basically the exact opinion I have seen lately regarding Mania.

I once was reading a list of top 100 video games of all time - KOTOR was on the list, and for that game's blurb, the author of the list said something along the lines of "the best thing since the Star Wars trilogy (what? There are prequels? Never heard of them)"

The EU still exists though. Just because they are no longer writing for it doesn't mean they are trying to ignore it. You can still easily buy EU books in the store - they were republished with a Legends brand, even.

Nobody actually thinks like that outside of your head. Stop victimizing yourself, this is why people mock EUfags.

Just because people like or prefer Canon, or dislike a lot of the EU, doesn't mean people turned on it just for being non-canon. People are allowed to have, you know, opinions.

God I hate pretentious idiots like you.

Connected media always has a "canon" so fans AND the writers can follow along with what events and character developments have happened. Ignoring the canon creates a shoddy continuity that doesn't work because events and developments can be ruined/overlooked by lazy creators.

It's a tool of consistency.

No shit you can enjoy non-canon stuff too, under the pretense of understanding it isn't canon. But don't pretend like actual canon continuity isn't valued or important to the fans or creators.

It has nothing to do with marketing. One of the first things Lucasfilm/Disney did in 2014 was re-sell most of Legends with big "LEGENDS" banners for fuck sakes.

It's for writers to keep things consistent, yes. And thats what the LSG oversees.

Fans follow the Canon so that they can stay up-to-date and follow the series in a consistent manner.

going solely by the four canon designs as yet revealed, the MC80 Liberty, MC80A wingless Liberty, and MC80 Home One all bear distinct resemblance to odontoceti, that is toothed whales such as dolphins and orcas; the MC75 Profundity bears much greater resemblance to a rorqual, such as a Fin whale or Humpback whale, or given that it's actually described as "predatory" in the ROVG, a lamniforme squalus such as a Great White shark

I swear reading an interview that he had every intent and desire to do one or more additional canon Thrawn novels as sequels to the one released, but I don't know if they were actually in the works and being picked up by Disney/LSG
>>
>>93847191
IIRC Zahn said at celebration that he has plans and intentions on doing more Canon Star Wars, but he has nothing he can announce yet.

No word on a follow-up to Thrawn, but it obviously has not be ruled out. It's something that everybody including Zahn will be eager for, and the book has more than enough space to expand from.

It might of course depend on if Thrawn survives Rebels. Bendu gave Thrawn a big fat death flag, and Ruhk is also on tracks to kill Thrawn again. Thrawn has never really survived this arc of his story, but it is possible that Filoni/LSG/Zahn are pulling a fast one on us, that Thrawn will survive Rebels and get another book to continue with a new path ahead of him.

I've been speculating him having something to do with the First Order, myself. It all lines up, when you consider what was happening with Eli at the end of the book.

I watched them all, but I did it over a period of time and I guess that was before DBS came out which now has 98 episodes too it. It's 444 episodes for all of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z. It would be 320 episodes if you watch Dragon Ball Z Kai rather than the original Dragon Ball Z. If you were to push all episodes of Rebels and TCW(including Story Reels) together you would get 184 episodes. With Season4 of Rebels, this will hit past the 200 episode mark. This will just keep going up over time as we get new animated series so their may be people who in the future can't be bothered to marathon all the Star Wars shows

Yeah, Jyn doesn't really get a happy break in her entire life. The book goes from her childhood, up until her imprisonment at the start of Rogue One, so there's really no space for any happy times at all.

I recall Saw being very brutal. I'm a bit hazy on the details, but I remember Saw killing unarmed Imperial figureheads at a social gathering or something.

>>
>>93847221

>>
>>93847510
>>93847525
That's from Guardians of the Whills, not Rebel Rising.

And yeah, Saw was intending to use a stolen shuttle to blow up the ISD over Jedha. Then Chirrut and Baze were trying to use the shuttle to smuggle orphaned children off the planet, only for them to realize that Saw was intending to use the shuttle as a bomb.

It's not 100% clear if Saw knew that he would be blowing up kids, because im pretty sure by this point they were communicating with Beezer as the middle man though.

Needless to say, Chirrut and Baze figure it out and make sure the kids aren't harmed by removing the bombs.

Quick rundown of everything that happens to Jyn in Rebel Rising:

>watches her mother get killed and her father captured by Krennic
>ends up believing her father abandoned her to work with the Empire
>trained to become a child soldier by Saw and his merry band of murderhobos
>witnesses them performing a straight up terror attack on a ball just to send a message to the Empire
>abandoned by Saw after an botched operation and left on a planet getting bombarded from orbit by Star Destroyers
>manages to escape and find a nice cargo pilot to look after her
>comfy times on pilot woman's home planet, even manages to find love with her cute son
>maybe things aren't gonna be so bad after all
>haha jk they all get forced on the run from the empire and the other two get fucking obliterated in the crossfire of a space battle
>alone again on some shithole space station
>ends up forced to some corrupt imperial's dirty work
>at one point she gets captured by a crimelord and realizes her life has been so shitty by this point she doesn't even care if she gets tortured or killed by them
>ultimately gets doublecrossed by the corrupt imperial and sent off to the labour camps

And of course this all leads into Rogue One, which ultimately doesn't end well for her.

Jyn had a hard life.

If Canon, maybe.

If EU, that has to go to Death Troopers.

That book has an Imperial doctor trying to survive with a small group on a zombie-infested Star Destroyer. Sound cliche and gimmicky, right? Well as bleak and hopeless as that already sounds, two of the survivors are small boys. One of which has his face blasted off, killing him instantly as the nurse is running with him in her arms.

This was only halfway into the book. Felt like being sick and quitting there.

I get that it's a horror book, but it was also a Star Wars book, and it was technically just one of many wacky adventures Han Solo went on. So I didn't expect the book to just be about two kids watching lots of people die in horrible ways, until it happens to them too. On a Star Destroyer.

TFA might be shit, but people are being silly if they think it means nothing good can ever be made set in the ST again.

Lets take TPM for example. Now don't get me wrong, I love TPM, and it's not even close to being as creatively bankrupt as TFA. But lets look at how Anakin is described as being a virgin birth. Seems ridiculous right?

Then ROTS drops the Plagueis bombshell about creating and preserving life, and it all comes together. The manipulation tool for Anakin's downfall is also the perverse use of the force that created him.

While people might still not be okay with the lore sorrounding Anakin, I think we can all agree that ROTS is a little eye-opening and made the reveal in TPM better.

VIII and IX can easily create some lore to justify some of the most egregious problems of TFA. And even if it doesn't change the fact that TFA is ultimately a shitty Star Wars movie, it is proof that good stories can and will come from the era.

Just wait for Filoni to do a full tv show in the era, for example. You'd be hard pressed to hate that just on the basis of TFA existing.

>My father’s revenge.
>Krennic was doomed, then, though it galled him to admit it. Yet while he might die at Tarkin’s hands, he would die in the fires of his creation. The Death Star would endure. He licked blood and spittle from his lips and imagined world after world consumed by his station’s power. Even the Emperor would not leave such a mark on the galaxy. The Death Star, his Death Star, would alter star systems and civilizations, be remembered a thousand generations after Tarkin had been erased from history.
>And while Tarkin did live? He would know that every victory he eked out would be due to Krennic’s work. He would fumble his way through battle after battle, not truly understanding the weapon he wielded, until his arrogance destroyed him.
>He built a flaw in the Death Star.
>The focusing dish grew brighter.
>Krennic squeezed his eyes shut and used the last glimmerings of his mind to see the station as it was meant to be seen: to stand on the overbridge of his behemoth creation; listen to the reactor’s muffled roar turn to a shriek; feel the tremors in the deck plating turn violent as the kyber core exerted its strength. Jyn Erso had given her life to steal the Death Star schematics, but those schematics were etched in his heart.
>You’ll never win.
>He would die not on Scarif, but inside the Death Star.
>And as he envisioned the cataclysmic energies building within the vast station, he saw it—a detail he had overlooked and forgotten, some trivial adjustment of Galen’s: a single exhaust port leading from a narrow trench down and down, down kilometers of blackness, past conduits and hatches and radiation plating, down and down—
>—and into the main reactor.
>The primary weapon of the Death Star battle station fired.
>Orson Krennic, advanced weapons research director and father of the Death Star, died alone on Scarif, screaming in fury at Galen Erso, at Jyn Erso, at Wilhuff Tarkin, and at all the galaxy.

I like to think that that was Krennic's "life flashes before his eyes" moment, since he saw literally every bit of blueprint to the DS in enough detail to realize the error. It's hard to say if he would have been able to find it out before Luke happened a day or so later without that huge sudden amount of stress staring you down from orbit.

I personally don't care about what Yoda's race is in and of itself, but the mystery as to why they never said what his race is, is a far better mystery to me, and I hope they never reveal it because the question a to why they don't want us to know is far better.

Lucas (and by proxy Lucasfilm) want it left a mystery too. I remember he had a bunch of cards retracted because they depicted Yoda's species and it was weird as fuck.

He added Yaddle because he didn't want people thinking Yoda was "the last of his kind" or some generic bullshit, but beyond that Lucas and Lucasfilm have never touched Yoda's species, and probably never will.
>>
The only notable story I have is that there was this 11 or 12 year old boy that we kept on running into in the line area.

We talked to him for five seconds

Fifteen minutes later we see a dude with a Kit Fisto mask. I say "sup Kit Fisto?" and he takes off the mask, revealing himself to be the kid.

A few hours later there is a DJ in the room blasting music at 1AM (I loved it but apparently nobody else did). I'm dancing in the moshpit and I knock someone flat on their ass, it's the kid.

Two days later (I had sold my weekend con ticket for a bit less than what I paid for because the con was so miserable and the morale there was in the negatives) I'm at Disney World at a big ticket only Star Wars party at Hollywood Studios.

I'm in the single party line for Star Wars Rock'N'Rollercoaster (same ride but with John Williams score playing and all of the set pieces gone) and I see him. It's the fucking kid. He's in the regular line and I'm put in the cart ahead of his. I say "you're that kid" and he says "yeah" and I say "let me take a picture with you this is crazy". I am seated next to his mother for the ride.

Now this next part needs an explanation: they kicked everyone out of the park at 6PM and gave everyone with tickets to this event big ass lanyards to put around their neck to let people know that you're part of the event. Really cool lanyard, it had 8 blank spots that you had to go around the park and fill with stickers, each one correlating to the seven Star Wars saga films and Rogue One.

So halfway through the ride I hear a blood curdling scream. After the scream I just hear straight up sobbing. "M-M-MOOOOM I lost my necklace!!!" "oh it's okay sweetie we-" "MOOOOOM THEY'RE GOING TO K-K-K-K-KICK ME O-O-O-OOOOUT" I almost died of a ruptured lung because I had to keep the laughter inside. The kid was SOBBING and it was both sad and hilarious.

We get off the ride and he quickly stops crying and says "oh wait it's still on me".

At the end of it all, I sent my friend who I went to the con with a text with the picture of the kid and he said "what are the odds" I replied "never tell me the odds" and he responded "shut the fuck up".

Just remembered the most notable story.
Near the end of the night, shortly after the rollercoaster story, waiting in line a concession stand for a bottle of water. It's my turn to go up and as I walk to the counter some chick runs full speed right into me and almost knocks me over. "Sorry sorry!!!" she says as she continues. She stops to check out some dude's fully finished lanyard and I hear them talking about taking pictures and I'm thinking "why the fuck would they want a picture?"

I look over and it's Kelly Marie Tran. One of the new leads in The Last Jedi. After getting my water I approach her and say "Hey, you're Kelly Marie Tran" and she laughs and says "shhh" in a playful manner. I tell her that I'm hype to see her in Last Jedi and ask for a photo. She happily obliges and takes a few photos with me. Incredibly nice girl! As I leave I say "Super excited to see you in Star Wars!" and she says "I'm excited for you to see it!"

>>93849434
That would undo the Thrawn novel for sending Eli off to unknown space to be with the Chiss, just to kill someone off. Rebels even went as far as forcing that to happen, since Eli wasn't made for Thrawn's debut season. I got the feeling we won't be seeing Eli again until we see Chiss space again, unless it's in a hologram communication.
>>
>>93849553
Well again, that would require one to ignore the book where Eli fucks off at some undetermined point in time to contact the Chiss government, which could be at any point in between "just before rebels" and "just before TFA"

We don't know that. Could be a Thrawn cameo in the Solo movie. I'm sure there will be some level of Imperial antagonism in the movie. Much like the Falcon flying past three Star Destroyers in ESB, it could happen in the Solo movie, and cut to Grand Admiral Thrawn in the bridge for maximum fanboy orgasms.

Plus we have no idea what the 2020 movie is beyond that it was Lucas's idea. That man has no bias for Era's so it could be anything.

That's the best comeback you can come up with? Pathetic. Why don't you run along back to Game of Thrones General on /tv/ where you can pretend to be a grownup while us adults who actually like Star Wars enjoy our "baby shit for babies."

Honestly I prefer Rebels' artstyle over The Clone Wars'. Yeah, TCW has better lighting, animation, and more background detail, but that's because of its' miles-higher budget. But I don't like the painted-woodcutting design of TCW. I get what they were going for, but I don't like it.

I recongize the validity of your opinion but I prefer the stylization of TCW.
I think Rebels is too gaunt and stretched out.
Good show though.

as per the wook the first tpb had issues 1 to 8. if that is the case for the others, vol 3 would only have two new stories the anglosphere hasnt read (23 and 24) with the rest (up to 33) not having been collected so far

>>93852093
Pablo's not 100% dictator of everything Star Wars. Just because he doesn't like it doesn't mean it will never happen. He also hated Starkiller Base.
>>
>>93852116
Sort of a mix of Star Tours, Indy, and that Spiderman ride over at Universal, at least based on the stuff I've heard.
>>
>>93852093
>>93852096
I really really really fucking hope you guys are right because the whole grey shit would shit on everything Lucas envisioned for the force.
>>
>>93852116
Dark ride rather then a simulator. Utilizes the trackless ride system of Mystic Manor.

Millennium Falcon's going to be more of the "Neo-Star Tours" attraction.
>>
>>93852053
Fucking this.
I hate that since the X-wing, every "good side" vehicle needs a astromech.
Like, someone post that shit image of a Jedi Starfighter with a droid in it that can't possibly fit.

The N-1 Naboo Fighter was ruined by a droid slot.

It's a stupid as fuck call back to R2 and Luke's X-wing.

Fuck astromech droids. Considering all they done in the Death Star battle, why ever make them optional?
>>
>>93852131
Yeah, but he wasn't publicly shitting on Starkiller Base until after the movie was out. If they were planning on doing gray Jedi, he'd know and he'd be less likely to talk about it, at least not until afterward.

Plus Lucasfilm didn't have as much direct control over TFA, so a lot of stuff that Lucasfilm higher-ups like Pablo didn't like got included that they were powerless to stop.

I know exactly what you're talking about, I even made this image. But it was just a mistake on the physical prop model for the starfighter. The CGI model clearly has space underneath for an astromech, and we even see R2 pop out of it later on.

>>93852273
It was corporate mandate what it was.
Someone decided that R2 had to be everywhere. Because he was marketable.

So he had to "X-wing" his way into every starship that Anakin flew.

I remember it being part of the early rumors, but then they went and said that it's some Outer Rim world that got left off the maps since they hyperspace lanes were first created.

It's the Bates Motel of Star Wars planets, but no mention of any crazy moms...yet.
>>
>>93852587
They've said new planet from the get go, though rejected concept art for the "Crime City" that Maz's Castle at Takodana replaced got used as inspiration for the theme parks.

It's more like the Radiator Springs of Star Wars planets.

Which makes a rusty but marketable hunk of junk like the Millennium Falcon the Mater of Star Wars.
