Sex in Star Wars EU.....

No really, I am skipping all reading and writing classes plus getting watched by my teachers. They expect me to write something to get published. Anyway its anout a galaxy that is full of fundementalist who dont belive in a religion. The remaining christians(who by the way are a reptilian species) are on the brinck of collapse. When a systems destruction is blamed on them, one of the best opperatives of the galactic communist government is out to find this mysteriouse god of theres....thats all i can say now.

 

Concerning more explicit sexual scenes that could possibly crop up in the future, it would have to depend on the author. Currently, the authors who have dealt with such scenes have done a great job with what they've done. Nothing that explicit, but enough to let us know what's going on. It does not suggest one way or another how well they would do with a more explict scene. But there are authors out there who could provide more explicit scenes without making things more of a hardcore scene. Some of the authors for the Highlander novels have done a good job both with the action scenes and with the sex scenes that occasionally appear. And we're talking a fantasy series, not a romance series.

Whether it could happen or not is too hard to tell. Such scenes are still evolving in the EU. Which is to say that things are changing from what they once were. If the EU continues long after EP. III, then it may be 2008 or so before these scenes have evolved to the point of being that explicit. Or it may never happen at all. It may simply be allowed that things reach a point where a couple is described in the nude and then the scene fades out. Who can truely say what will occur years from now. To do so is speculation, but it is speculation based on what has already happened with sex scenes in the EU to this point.

 

But the Highlander movies and TV show were ALL about Duncan and Connor making out with women over the course of their immortal lives... it was a part of the canon from the get-go (the original Highlander movie) to show nudity in the flick.

Star Wars was never about that. And I was always of the romance = yes, sex = no group... however, I'd like it to be clear that there's NO incest going on thank you very much...

 

There were films and TV shows after the first Highlander?

 

Yes, there was plenty more Highlander media after the first movie.

- Highlander 2: The Quickening (awful; I expunge the word "Zeist" from my vocabulary)
- Highlander 2: Renegade Version (a recut version of the above movie; much, much better)
- Highlander 3: The Final Dimension (almost shot for shot remake of the first film, though lacking the "quality")
- Highlander the Series (follows Duncan MacLeod, Connor's cousin; widely considered to be the "official" canon timeline these days; 5.5 seasons long)
- Highlander: The Animated Series (let us never speak of this again)
- Highlander 4: Endgame (the last movie, Duncan and Connor in the same film; pretty crappy)

If anyone wants more info on Highlander stuff, PM me and I'll talk offline rather than cluttering the board more.

 

You foegot Highlander: the Raven.

And it was pretty good.

 

I think the SW writers should have more romace and sex in the SW books. Not like sex in some other novals, but have something like this:

"Mara pulled Luke into the bedroom and shut the door."

Not that short, but like in some books we have scens with Luke and Mara kissing and being close to each other. After a scene like that, have the scene I just put up follow it.

 

I think I've altered my view a little bit. Listening to some of you I decided that sex isn't exactly what I meant there should be more of. But definently more romance. Right now, Luke and Mara are portrayed at just the right level I think. Han and Leia have pretty much always been played down I think. But more love between charactors is what's needed. Not nessesarily sexy scenes, but scenes between people that let us know that they actually care about each other.

 

Not the movies and the series. The novels. There are several novels based around the TV series. Only one of those that I have features Connor (Element of Fire). All feature Ducan, and one actually has Mythos as the main character (The Captive Soul). Since we're disscussing sex in EU lit, I was saying to look at what some of those authors have done without getting so explicit as to make them hardcore novels.

 

But again Knight... Highlander movies and TV and the whole universe all had sex intertwined into the story from the get-go. It's no shocker that the novels in that sense also followed with the sex and love. Star Wars the MOVIES rarely delved into those areas, so the novels tend to stay away for the most part as well.

Now I agree that some of the writers could handle writing decent romantically charged scenes while leaving out the sexual stuff, but they should know where that fine line is. I know that people generally dislike Stackpole's "romance" writings in the EU (which I agree with) but some of his earlier BattleTech novels did pretty okay with the romance (and sex, but again... different genre). And I'm sure Allston could come up with some good romance scenes between Wes and Kettch. "Yub yub" indeed!

 

OK lets see what I can think of

Shadows of the Empire:

Leia and Xisor were getting pretty freindly.... heheheh

X-Wing #4: The Bacta War

Corran and Mirax are talking, she says his absence awoke her. Um he is fretting over Isard and she tells him that 2.00 in the morning is not his best hour after all. He tells her that hse seemed to have changed her tune since the night before. She replies back that his focus had been on her and not Isard then... that sort of implied a bit. She was wearing some gown at the time and then started stepping backwards towards her bed and Corran then followed and stepped over the gown which had slid down onto the floor. It ended that scene there.

X-Wing #8: Isard's Revenge

Mirax: "So you want to just come home and fall into bed?
Corran: "I got plenty of rack time on the Home One during the trip"
Mirax: "Not the question I asked husband"

Black Fleet Crisis Trilogy:

Luke and Akanah had sex in hyperspace. It didn't lead up to it it just gave as a scene where they are lying in bed togethor afterwards and it says that it just happened for no apparent reason. Akanah is later approached by a guy trying to hit on her who asks if she had ever had sex in hyperspace and she remembered being with Luke and says yes.

New Jedi Order: Dark Tide

Luke and Mara are discussing I think it was on Dantooine and they decide to think it over, they are just outside their room. Mara suggest thinking about it lying down and Luke says "I like the way you think , dear wife" or something like that. I was pretty sure that implied something.

New Jedi Order: Star By Star

Luke and Mara during there emotional bond at Talfangio where they discover they can read each others thoughts allow there minds drift to a physical union apposed to there mental one they were experiencing at the time.

um thats all I can think of...

 

SOTE-

Xixor says he doesnt need Leia anyway his droid woman Guri can perform those certain tasks and sometimes he said he lets her in his hottub thing...

 

Indeed. She performs quite well.



And since two post one after another scorched my name, I'm gonna say it again :

IT IS XIZOR NOT XISOR OR XIXOR

 

Han Solo Trilogy

i think Han did Bria on the beach...

and i belive another han book hd chewie watching han let the woman into his thermojacket even though hers was plenty warm...

 

In the Han Solo Trilogy...

Han rued Fiolla's nasty habit of keeping her stateroom door locked at night.

 

I would like a little more romance, but I don't think SW needs sexual references of unmarried sex. I don't mind implied sex between the married characters.

 

Bringing this bad boy upstairs...

 

Yeah, I don't think hardcore sex descriptions have any real place in SW, but romance with some light implications or lead-ins to sex definitely does.

 

...UNLESS the SW characters reproduce asexually! I knew the Skywalkers reproduced by severing body parts! You hack off Luke's hand, you get a new Luke!

If you couldn't tell, that was a joke.

 

How about what Sharr said to Jaina in RD! Something about finding a spring fed pool and bathing each other while Piggy stood guard.
