Lit A/V The Force Awakens and the EU [TAGGED spoilers.]

Hell, there are people who can vote who weren't born then, so it might not even take that long to run us into the ground.

 

[sarcasm]Yeah, the problem's totally the youth vote.[/sarcasm]

 

I'd say it's worth a watch, even if I'm not a fan of it. Not bad, but not my type of movie; the melodramatic high school movies doesn't really do much for me (though of course I'll admit The Breakfast Club is heads and shoulders above practically every other high school drama ever made).

Yes, I beat the spread by barely a year. Of course, I doubt my parents took me to see it when I was less than a year old, but it's a possibility...

 

o rly
it's all irrelevent at this stage anyway
I'm still hoping episode 7 will be set Post-crucible and gets along fine with all the current EU

 

Not trying to make an actual political point, just going for the "get off my lawn" cheap shot....

 

I disapprove of everyone in this thread. Also, I have no idea which thread this even is supposed to be anymore.

 

When it came to negotiating a price, I'm sure he suddenly remembered the EU existed and warranted some extra money, yes.

Not that that means the story treatments mentioned in the very same breath paid the EU the same notice.

 

Interesting thought (funnily enough appearing over in the ces Episode 7 forum - sorry for the typo, fingers went ahead of the brain) that Mara may well be a G-canon character. Allegedly she appeared in the RotJ Radio Play (under her Jabba's-court alias, which was revealed in HttE). That link has never been repudiated, and could have come from GL in some way.

Perhaps she used a Force Illusion to make people think she was dead, while infiiltrating, and preparing to eliminate, the Disnoids!

 

Star Wars Insider - 1994

Holocron canon levels - 2000

There is very little chance Disney or Lucas knows, or cares, about this. At the time that the radio drama was written there was no Mara Jade - that will likely be LFL's default position.

 

Actually, the ROTJ radio drama came out in 1996, so Mara Jade was fully established by then.

 

All I'm going to say is that I will care about G-Canon when G-Canon starts caring about G-Canon.

 

We need a prefix for derailed threads. Also, a sausage and/or bacon smiley.

 

I wouldn't be.

 

It's my understanding that the ANH Radio Drama was the single biggest casualty of TFU. I can't decide if that makes them less G-canon (by virtue of contradiction) or more (by virtue of Lucas sucking at continuity).

 

Coming Soon. Star Wars meets Avengers Assemble?

 

...Iron Man doesn't have powers. I call shenanigans.

 

Thats interesting. I assumed it had come out way before that. So does that mean that Daley actually wrote it in the mid 90's? Or did he write it way back when and just tweeked it for release in 1996?

 

Guys, I was just on a Terry Pratchett forum, and the Darth Vader Resurrected rumor was there. Why does it get to tour the Internet and not my "James Earl Jones will voice Old Luke" rumor?

 

Why do we need a ressurected Darth Vader? I mean the man was redeemed let him rest in peace
