Oh I guess i watched it once. Read the Wookieepedia page and the main planet is Nahjedha (who comes up with these names). That's not totally clear to the casual viewer and it made Krennic more sympathetic to the audience then he deserved
>>
>>94859072
It was clear to me anon. Not the first time the Moon of a planet was where the heroes were, rather than the core planet.

In fact it happens more often than not. Both Yavin IV and the Forest Moon of Endor.

Tatooine excluded, the only planet in the OT the Rebels set foot on is actually Hoth.

They've subtly hinted that Tekka is a former bounty hunter. In Lego TFA he's friends with a bounty hunter, in the TFA novelization Kylo and Poe talk about Tekka being a soldier for hire, and in the leaked Battlefront 2 subtitles (that were confirmed real by Inferno Squad) there's a line about something along the lines of 'escaping the infamous Lor San Tekka'.

Anything in Canon that has an EU counterpart, was usually far more convoluted and shitty in the EU. (See: Everything about the Death Star. Literally everything about it. Everything.)
>>
>>94859661
I can't really think of anything. I can think of a lot of stuff that was explained just as fine as canon like how the Sith began, how lightsaber colors work, how the Rebellion got their symbol, etc.
>>
>>94859751
Canon explanation is the exact same as Legends though, because the Legends explanation stemmed from George Lucas's notes.

Only difference is that Bane doesn't have his own stories yet, so in that regard there isn't even anything in Canon to compare it too.

But the Rule of Two and where it came from is exactly the same as it has ever been.

Canon has not even scratched that era yet. It's not "boring", they just literally havent even got to it yet. There's a grand total of one YA book (it's actually quite fun too) and beyond that it's blank.

Well that's the thing, canon has established that the Rebellion literally didn't do anything in that time period. They make a point that Leia is taking a huge risk because the Rebellion hasn't gone on any missions since ESB. The only story they have for that era is whatever Luke did. It's the same ordeal as an Obi-Wan film that can't happen because it's established that he did fuck all in between RotS and ANH.

>>
>>94859661
Explained better? Off the top of my head, I can't really think of anything. But there's a fair amount of stuff that I didn't see any reason to change, like the Jedi homeworld or the origins of the Sith. I cling to hope that the events of Tales of the Jedi are still canon in some form or another. Same with video games, like Shadows of the Empire and Republic Commando. And there's a lot of WEG D6 material that I wish remained canon, though much of it has been grandfathered in regardless.

Other aspects, like Kyle Katarn stealing the Death Star plans in a one-man mission that is not even the climax of a video game, but its introductory level, are definitely better in the new canon.

That I said, I do ultimately feel it's somewhat disrespectful to the writers and fans of the EU to just throw it all out. I completely understand why they did it, and I personally hold no grudge, but I can see why it rubs a lot of people the wrong way to find out that the Star Wars they've been enjoying for decades isn't "the real Star Wars." I personally would like to see some EU stuff edited and republished as part of the new canon, rather than all of it simply being relegated to Legends. It seems like a waste of a lot of great material, some of which, like Heir to the Empire and Shadows of the Empire, was even developed in conjunction with Lucas.

Yup and gives a more impressive description of the ESB era than the EU ever did. The Rebellion after Yavin moved in and started capturing parts of the Mid Rim. Then they were slowly driven back into the Outer Rim for the next 18 months. It went from being called the Mid Rim Campaign to the Mid Rim Retreat.

The fall of the Empire, In Legends, the majority of the fighting took place over several years with Thrawn and Clone Palpatine being their last ditch attempts to regain control of the galaxy, then it was the occasional skirmish with the Empire-Republic finally signing a peace treaty a decade later.

Canon, everything takes place in the space of a single year.

Personally, I also say that I prefer Synthetic Crystals > Bleeding Crystals for creating a red lightsaber.

"I spent a lot of time looking at real-world references. Looking at the big battleships, the Yamato and all those kinds of things from World War II, and the way those guns would lower or rise. So the idea of them coming out the bottom of the Dreadnought became a design feature, because rather than just being there pointing down, we wanted to imply the danger that they sort of unlocked themselves and then moved into position. Just like the big 14-inch guns you used to see on those old battleships. It was a capitol ship. That was what we were kind of going for."

"I talked to Rian about “what is a walker.” We went through this whole discussion about iteration. Iteration, to me, makes more sense than random walker design. So we talked about the way a Sherman tank in World War II evolved into an Abrams tank, for various reasons, or a Chieftain tank, or a Challenger, or whatever you want to say. And so we were trying to think about what made sense for a walker and I just said, “Look, a walker, to me, it’s essentially a Panzer tank mixed with a dog.” One of the questions that tied us up a lot is the fact that they’d been taken down by snowspeeders in The Empire Strikes Back, and it felt like everyone else is trying to avoid the problem of a four-legged version of a walker because they had been defeated on Hoth. So I sort of took that on board and I suggested to Rian, “Well, instead of a dog, what about a gorilla?” I can’t remember why I said a gorilla, but I just said, “They have a great stance, they are very aggressive,” and that’s how the idea of the gorilla came. And literally in profile, I molded it over an actual photo of a gorilla to get the initial base pose."

>>94860394
Based on how flat it is, and the spherical groove in the center of it, it sort of looks like another Star Destroyer is supposed to actually land on top of it, for extra defense and firepower

Not confirmed or anything, just an observation that could be real, considering the leaks described Snoke's ship as looking very different. But if it turns out Snoke's flagsip docks ontop of it, it would make more sense.

>>94860397
I'm aware, but the game itself is still considered non-canon. And I don't see them ever remaking it or overwriting it with a new book or something. It easily COULD be canon, sure, but that's my point. There's a lot of material that could still fit, but by branding it Legends they are practically guaranteeing that it will never be touched again.

As a fa/tg/uy I've been playing around in my own personal Star Wars universe for a long time now, so the notion of canon has never been a particularly big deal to me. But the idea that Delta Squad will probably never be heard from again is somewhat disheartening.

You literally (L I T E R A L L Y) do not follow canon. One of the first fucking comics was all about a Clone disobeying, even in spite of the chip.

Do not pretend like Canon is failing or inferior to something from the EU when you clearly do not even read any of the new stuff.

>I actually liked (for the most part, it could get very excessive at times) how and what Mandos were before Clone Wars started in on the pacifism stuff.
Okay come the fuck on, did you not even watch TCW too?

You do realize that Mandalorian Warriors were not a part of the whole Pacificm thing right? And they swiftly trashed that by having the planet erupt into civil war following political assassinations and bombings in the cities.

Are you talking about the Kanan comics? Because I did read those.

And I'm not saying it's failing, just that I preferred the precious explanation.

On the Mandos.
I've watched ALL of the TCW episodes with them. And I know they've been bringing in lots of bits of the old stuff. But I really did like a lot of the viking/nomad/mongol stuff they had before, plus all their history (some of which has been alluded to in the nu canon)

But yes, I liked how Jango was a Mando, I liked how Boba Fett spent decades ignoring that and only grew into his heritage way later (granted, putting that story into the middle of the LOTF series was fucking stupid, but standing alone I liked that arc)

If you're implying the Traviss shit is better than what TCW and Rebels did then fuck right off.

Bringing Mandalorians back to the ESB production roots was one of the best things TCW did for Mandalorians. And giving them an intriguing story where they had to overcome a pacifist faction that was trying to destroy their militaristic way of life was great.

I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt for responding peacefully rather than shitflinging back at me. Wish that happened more often from people who genuinelyl seem to prefer the EU. A lot of the time EUfags come off as bitter and looking for any opportunity to argue,

We'll just have to agree to disagree though. I vastly prefer Canon over all the examples you gave me. Using Boba as an example, I really like that he is just some rogue Bounty Hunter in hand-me-downs. He's not some gary stu Mando God, or the greatest bounty hunter to ever grace the Galaxy, he's just a ruthless (and unfortunately very mentally fucked & reckless) bastard who would sooner shoot a Mando for his leg bracers than recite Vode An.

That might sound like heresy to people who enjoyed his EU stories, but thats just how Boba Fett is in the mind of Lucas, and I completely agree and enjoy that decision for him.

>What? How could you possibly like the Legends way? It was lame. Anything could be a lightsaber crystal. It was dumb. It made the lightsaber less mystical because even a fossilized krayt dragon turd could be a fucking crystal

That made the lightsaber more dynamic and cool. You could have YOUR lightsaber, made from specific materials you found lying around and from a specific crystal you found with it's own properties. As overdrawn as it was the best part of Kotor 2 was arguably the fact that you had to scavange out all of the individual saber parts and figure out which crystal was your first. There was a personal one more in line with the new way but the flavor text for all the color crystals was a big part of the experience.

Having literally every jedi go through the exact same trial is boring. It's cool maybe twice to see and then it's a carbon copy thing. Whereas it's much better if someone like Corran Horn has his hereditary stone and then two regular ones to modify it, then Jaden Korr made his out of shit in his garage, then Jacen Solo has to fish his out of a gas giant, those are three very different and interesting stories.

Kyber Crystals are for casuals who want to watch one episode of a tv show then forget about it. Actual fans can enjoy having more than one way to tell a story.

Not really, if anything it made it more mystical because only Jedi could imbue them with the qualities needed to make a functioning lightsaber. Joe from Tatooine couldn't take a Krayt Dragon turd and make a lightsaber, but a Jedi in a pinch could. I can see why anon prefers that.

In the nu-canon it seems (and correct me if I'm wrong here) anyone can make a lightsaber. See: the Death Star being a giant lightsaber. Which I happen to like as a terrible technological perversion of a Jedi tradition, but I digress.

I'm never not gonna shake my head at the edgy, try-hard Sith lightsabers are red because the crystal is BLEEDING thing.

I've gone on long winded nuanced explanations of Traviss' Mando stuff before, but I don't feel like it, so I'll boil it down to my thesis:

Traviss did a lot of interesting stuff with Mandos and clones I really enjoyed. But, she did take it too far sometimes into mando-worship. She was a poor fit for writing the main series books, she was better off left in a corner of the galaxy other people could ignore. Also, her anti-jedi shit grew tiresome and didn't fit with SW. However, I don't think her mistakes and excesses erase the parts I did like.

It was originally that there were only blue and green crystals and only found on one planet.

>kotor 2

opinion discarded

Lightsabers are supposed to be something special. Making anything able to be used for the crystal just makes it not special. It's not some weapon that has to be made with certain ingredients, it's just "slap this metal together and find something to shove in this crevice".

>Having literally every jedi go through the exact same trial is boring.
So? The Jedi Order is a religion. Religions have specific things that are done the exact same way.

Yup on the new sith lightsabers being too fucking try-hard.

The red crystals being synthetic was the perfect explanation, both because it was exemplary of the dark side being quicker and easier, but ultimately less powerful, and because it allowed flexibility in being approached from both a mystical (Synthesized through sith alchemy) and a technological (Mass produced by the empire) perspective.

No, that's what the Darksaber from the EU was. How many planets did the Death Star slice and dice like Ainsley Harriot on the telly? None, it shoots a big fat green laser burst that nukes the shit out of everything. You mind pointing me out the times Jedi pointed their lightphasers at redshirts to make them disintegrate?

>>94861653
You can't deny that how it's arranged chronologically is derivative. Why wasn't this SSD in TFA? Why wasn't Starkiller Base in TLJ instead? Because the Death Star wasn't in ESB and the Executor wasn't in ANH.

Even the x-wings we see in TFA are old by the time to movie starts. The NR - the ones with the money to afford them - have all the new model x-wings that we never get to see in TFA.

I assumed it's because it's on a much larger scale than a lightsaber, and in the case of Alderaan, because it triggers a reaction in the planet's core that tears it apart.

So if it's not basically a giant lightsaber then what the hell is the point of it being powered by kyber crystals? Because all that does is make people go, "Oh, so it's like a giant evil lightsaber."

The kyber crystals are a unique un-synthesizable mineral construct that can be used as an amplifying lens for the laser and have unique qualities that enable the generation of more energy than standard focusing prisms used in whatever guns are around. They're both lasers - laser sword vs superlaser - but they are nothing alike, it's like calling a gun the same thing as a car because they both operate on principles of combustion.

But this isn't real life, this is Star Wars, and in the case of Star Wars it just seems like splitting hairs to me. And while cars and guns both operate on principles of combustion they don't share key components.

What exactly are the properties of the Death Star Laser that make it totally different, aside from blowing things up? Why can't they just use another really big focusing lens if it doesn't function similarly to a lightsaber?
>>
>>94862012
It wont be immediate, They will start to trip them and this is meant for the fanboys to cheer and clap. Then there will be little lightsaber saws or something dumb to cut them and make them stop cheering and go "oh no that wasn't suppose to happen".

http://www.starwars.com/news/inside-two-deadly-new-first-order-vehicles-from-the-last-jedi

>The front legs are very heavily armored, and you can see can almost up to the forearm. And again, that’s my take on, “You can’t take these down with a snowspeeder.” They’ve armored up the front or maybe they just cut the ropes because they are too big now. Also, the way they are balanced now is like a gorilla, because their knuckles are turned backwards and they’ve got very high shoulders. They are a completely different poise. Maybe they could even sort of kneel down or something.

Eh, I don't feel like he plays the game that carefully. Palpatine is pretty good at keikaku but more than anything the prequels showcase what a great opportunist he is. No matter how many times the Jedi blunder into his plans he finds a way to make it work for him.

Which I guess is why I was curious about the Jedi protection thing. He was pretty pissed about the Jedi snooping around his business in TPM.

I like the new way Sith crystals work, but I still prefer the old way, in that they were artificial. It still fits thematically, as well. The kyber crystals reject the Dark Side, so the Sith just make their own.

>I hope that's not canon, cause I don't really buy that he factored Padme into his plan for Anakin. Otherwise he wouldn't be trying to kill her.
There's no other way to turn Anakin other than Padme. He would have killed Frank when he found out he was a Sith if he didn't need to be taught how to keep Padme from dying.

People really overstate the importance of the politics in the prequels, they are not the focus at all. It doesn't matter that the crawl talks about a trade dispute when Gunray is a cartoon villain. Kids understand this perfectly fine, it's hilarious that adults don't.

Palpatine has been watching Anakin since Episode I. He probably knows about his ten-year-long boner for Padmé and decided to work it to his advantage.

I would say that's an example of his opportunism and not his keikaku. Ruling the galaxy is the big picture, turning Anakin is just a bonus, an optional side-quest if you will.

Hell, they even state that that trade taxes or whatever the fuck aren't actually important at all in one of the first lines of the whole movie.

>"I have a bad feeling about this."
>"I don't sense anything."
>"It's not a bout the mission, master. It's something...elsewhere. Elusive."

The trade taxes were a ruse. A distraction from the real plot. Apparently, it was a ruse so well put together, it fooled the audience as well as the characters, in spite of the audience knowing a lot of things the characters don't.

plan on marathoning the following books in preparation for episode 8:

shattered empire
aftermath trilogy
thrawn trilogy
dark empire
bloodline

question is, do i have enough time to add in the plagueis and bane books?
it took me about a month to get through "lost stars" (2 if you count the month long break i took for lack of interest) so idk how long any of these books are
and i probably won't see episode 8 until late january/early february because i hate sharing a theater

i know half the shit i listed isn't even canon, but i thought i'd squeeze it into my own head canon anyway
especially since i know very little about the EU
i'm just expecting episode 8 to be the 1st big onscreen canon-breaker since jj left so much unanswered
especially the mystery of snoke

which brings me back to plagueis
are bane and plagueis connected?
or can i skip his books?

How can anyone not tell me this is one of the most Aesthetic Imperial ships?
>>
>>94866312
It varies from person to person, but I personally could handle the additional books. I normally burn through a star wars book in 3-5 days. I finished Bloodline in two days, and finished Thrawn in 1 day because it was so fucking amazing I couldn't put it down.

I would recommend doing the aftermath trilogy first, because it's really, really bland. Easily the weakest of your list. If you lost interest in Lost Stars, The Aftermath books will most certainly be a challenge for you. it's the weakest on your list of books. Bane and Plagueis aren't really connected, since they are both done by different authors. But both involve key players for the Sith, it's a good idea to plow through them both. Save them for the end and see how you feel after reading the list that you have going right now.

Try not to make your list too big, because then you will get caught up in shit. I'm trying to find time to finish Inferno Squad, Alexander Hamilton's biography, and a book on Carthage all at the same time while also playing through Pokemon Colosseum and Metroid Prime.

I've always sorta kept Star Wars at arms length. I've watched the movies and played some of the games but I've never read any books or comics, or done any deep-dives with the setting. As such, I'm confused about something...

Why do people like the rebels? Imperials have infinitely more style. The designs for their ships, their weapons, even their uniforms are all way more interesting. Their characters (not that any of the writing is particularly good but in a relative way) are more interesting. Everything about the rebels seems really bland - even their cause. They don't seem to stand for anything except not-whatever-the-Empire wants. Did I miss something?
>>
>>94867375
Yeah, I'm not a fan of the FO destroyer either. It just doesn't feel like it has any character to it. I kind of lump it in with the acclamator-class in that it's obviously meant to be in the same family as the ISD but does little to set itself apart. The venator does a great job of being obviously inspired by the ISD but still having its own distinct look.

Because people have different tastes? I don't know what you're asking.
>>
>>94867428

Imperial grunts look better than rebel grunts, but everything else goes to rebels. Rebel pilots look cooler. Rebel heroics outside the films look cooler(Kyle Katarn's sweet ass jacket being the obvious big example). Rebels have more varied ships since the imperials only have like four fighters total that aren't TIE variants and two of those just do the same job anyway. Rebels generally have a more varied aesthetic and story group in general so there's more to like.

A lot of the EU had his seal of approval. That never actually meant he considered it canon- more than a few people failed to notice the distinction, which is why there's a long-running misconception that TFU was absolute Lucas-tier canon thanks to the game's lead producer saying it was because he didn't understand that Lucas coming to your meetings and signing off on stuff didn't mean he considered it canon.

Stop bullying flat chests. Unless you're bullying Sabine for being a flat character, in that case carry on.

WE LITERALLY JUST CAME FROM A THREAD WITH 105 POSTERS

WITH NO NEW TRAILER. OR BOOK. OR EVEN A COMIC. AND YOU WERE FUCKING SILENT.

Why is it that you're always fucking silent when we're having a discussion and the thread is full of posters, but when threads are 1/3rd done and """only""" 60 people have shown up so far, you post this same shitty bait every single thread?

Shove it up your ass.
