Reading the page on corellians highlights the star wars 'everyone is their whole race thing' only thing it was missing was saying all corellians wore vests. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Corellian quote:Corellians were often considered intrepid and maverick by other Core peoples, spawning expressions warning against telling a Corellian the odds for success

fancy sauces posted:Still reading through this thread, but has anyone mentioned these dudes yet? http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/T%27landa_Til I remember that one, I think it was pretty decent because it was a pulpy "Drug smuggler gets in over his head with a Space cartel" story with no greater Saving the Galaxy implications. It was part one of a Han Solo origin trilogy, I don't think I ever read the other two and I'm sure there was some hilarious retconning to make it fit into continuity since it was set in the prequel era but was written before the prequels came out.

why didn't they make an ewok cartoon to compete with MLP they could have a all female voice cast and 1 song and dance number per episode. They could also just use ewoks to make a smurfs knock off.

I used to have a pair of Ewoks roller skates when I was in like, kindergarten. And I think I have a sheet of stickers from the cartoon around somewhere. I guess it wasn't popular enough to justify a revival. All I really remember is a little of the theme song, but that's mostly because it was just the Yub Nub song with lyrics.

Oddly enough, I never had Star Wars toys as a kid other than those skates. I was more into Transformers and He-Man, at least until I got my NES.

It was strongly implied that the war between the Silentium and the Abominor were the source of the Yuuzhan Vong's technophobia, suggesting that they were the race which invaded Yuuzhan'tar in the past. This link was finally made into canon in the Official Blog article The Droids Re-Animated, Part 2, by Rich Handley and Abel G. Peņa on July 5th, 2013. lol

How come Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru talked like they knew Luke's dad considering they only met him once? Why did Beru think Luke was too much like his father? From her extremely limited knowledge he was just some douchebag jedi who liked murdering sand people. And why would Owen be afraid Luke would follow Ben in some drat fool crusade just like his father? His father literally never did that, he whined every time Ben asked him to pass the salt. Either way Owen would have no way of knowing this since he only met Ben after Anakin died. When did he start calling himself Ben anyway? Come to think of it, didn't C-3PO work on Owens farm for years before Anakin came back in Episode II? So Owen and Beru retain these intimate memories of a guy they met for a couple of hours yet totally forget owning and dealing with the gayest droid in the galaxy for years?

quote:KT-10 was an astromech droid with a programmed female personality. She was captured by the giant droid known as the Great Heep on Biitu, and she and fellow astromech R2-D2 became romantically interested in each other while the two were being held captive in the Heep's droid harem. fuckin lol it just doesn't stop getting worse and worse

oohhboy posted:Cause the prequels are asinine burning toxic waste dumps. That and everyone knows Georgie had no idea what the clone wars was, who Anakin was before (except for 'good friend' and 'best fighter pilot in the galaxy'), who the gently caress Qui Gon Gin was (like when ghost Obi-wan talks about Yoda training him), etc. etc.. He completely just made poo poo up when it came to the prequels and didn't even worry about how it didn't fit. edit: mentioning ghost Obi wan talking about Yoda training him, I'm VERY surprised they didn't dub over Alec Guinness' lines with "Was I any different when -Qui Gon- taught me?"

I guess it makes a lot of sense that when trying to maintain a low profile you'd wear your official outfit and fill your house full of training gear, live 20 minutes away from a force sensitive then use none of it to train him until he just randomly shows up at your door.

The original movies are hideous nerd poo poo. Just a bit more focused and better than the prequels, and with the exception of Empire, not by a lot. Revel in the retardedness of Star Wars and just accept it. That being said, most of the EU is worse than even the most retarded of official Star Wars.
