    Haven't read the book so I can't comment on that. There is a thread here though discussing the novel that you may wish to peruse.

    HoosierCountry I've been reading Catalyst too, and Part One of the book takes place over 2 years or so. I think it begins around the middle or late start of the Clone War, and Part One ends with the "end" of the Clone War. So yes, Anakin would have become Darth Vader by that point. Anakin's turn happens sometime around the end of Part One.

    Hello everyone.

    I am thinking about creating a new thread; 'What is your favourite Star Wars POSTER' however I thought I'd check here first.

    Is there a search engine I don't know about to look for one first?

    The search function has been disabled. There is a thread about it here which also details alternate methods of searching the forums.

    There is a thread about Star Wars Posters here which could host your discussion.

    Also an addendum: Assuming your topic is relevant to the SWC and not more appropriate elsewhere, it is good practice to look through the last couple of pages to see if a similar topic was previously posted on the forum.

    Just wondering. Why do people like Ahsoka? I found her annoying, but I wanted to hear what others had to say.

    Well for me she was someone besides Princess Leia who I could look up to as a strong woman. The Clone Wars was a show I looked forward every week, and seeing Ahsoka grow and learn, and become stronger with every passing episode really appealed to me. Ahsoka is one of my favourite characters, and probably always will be. I can get why some people don't like her, but she does get better in later seasons of the Clone Wars.

    Hey Mods!

    I'm new here and was discussing creating a Jedi Academy (Welcome Fans of the Force) thread in the Welcome New Users forums and was told you would be the ones to talk about whether it would be worth pursuing.

    Thanks your humble servant Jar Jar.

    You'd have to discuss that with the leadership in either the New Jedi Trials (in the SWC) or the Guardian's of Light (for the EUC). I would suggest actually joining one of those groups if you plan on opening up a Jedi Academy in WNU.

    Where does Darth vader appear?
    I need fight scenes or just scenes where he's a badass in general for a video.
    Games, movies, series, everything is good as long as he's fighting and it's a video :)

    Technically, Anakin is Vader when he fights Obi Wan in ROTS which is probably the best fight in the Saga. Other good Vader fight scenes include his duels with Luke in TESB and ROTJ. Also, check out season 2 of Rebels, and in particular Vader's fight scene with Ahsoka.

    It's my understanding (and I may be incorrect here, so if anyone else knows please correct me), that the book adaptations of the movies are only canon insomuch as they don't contradict the film. Anything "extra" in a book that doesn't take place in the movie is not canon. Facts in a book that go against what is shown on screen is likewise non canon. For example in the A New Hope novelization Red Squadron is referred to as Blue Squadron (Luke is Blue Five not Red Five and so forth) which is obviously not what we know to be the canon "truth".

    From my understanding I think Bardan_Jusik is right, with the following minor caveat:

    I think that is also subject to the non-contradiction rule. So that extra material in a novelization that does not contract anything else in the movie is still canon.

    Yes. There is no way to prove or disprove from watching the movie.

    Is there any instance in any of the films of a stormtrooper (or anyone?) saying "For The Empire!" ?

    Have only heard it in the video games if I am not mistaken.....

    I liked her when most people found her annoying and I think its because it brought out a different side to Anakin. and She was her own sassy self.

    I think it's supposed to be from a deleted scene in which they nearly kiss - then Luke is asking Leia about the possibility of leaving the Alliance for a short time (Dagobah trip) - Leia was not happy.
