I loved everything Star Wars as a kid but I don’t even remember this being a part of a sequel saga? Like they made two of these? I just remember them not feeling at all like Star Wars and in the one I saw the bad villain lady was riding a horse and even as a kid I was like “they don’t have horses in Star Wars. This script was written for a different movie”

Yes well you see that horse is actually from a planet of sentient horse-like creatures called the Hor'syr and they are force-sensitive and in 12000 BBY they were part of the Jedi Council and the one you saw in that movie was actually a remnant of their species after their planet was blown up by the evil Sith Lord Evilious and he has a wife and kids and secretly built his own lightsaber in secret with his hooves and later goes on to star in many novels in the Expanded Universe such as

That's because they're horrible garbage trash movies. The first one (Caravan of Courage) is like the best movie to watch when you're drunk and wanna feel better about all the terrible choices you've made in life, cuz hey at least you didn't make Caravan of Courage

I love that a very middle of the road fictional villain is considered the pinnacle for Star Wars EU because the rest were generally terrible or forgettable

Hell Kyp Durron was probably the biggest villain of all and killed billions of possibly innocent people and he was still treated like a hero afterwards

The only worthwhile parts of the Star Wars EU are the Thrawn Trilogy and the first four books in the X-Wing series. Everything else is trash. In fact, the ones I liked are probably trash too because I read them when I was like 12.

I occasionally debate rereading the xwing books but I always put it off because what if they aren't as good now?

Although the Rogue Squadron ones were definitely better than the Wraith Squadron ones.

The best part of the EU is a short story I vaguely recall with Boba Fett where it's revealed that he was actually a public defender who got pissed off at one of his clients and killed him before becoming a bounty hunter. I don't remember anything else about the story, but Boba Fett being a space lawyer is the greatest thing in Star Wars.

Welcome to the Star Wars Expanded Universe where every background character seen for a split second in a movie is force-sensitive, Emperor Palpatine has been reborn and killed for the final time a hundred times, the entire Skywalker family tree is detailed to ten generations in either direction and includes every starring character from every movie mating with at least one member, everyone has hosed or tried to gently caress Mara Jade, the Empire comes and goes as many times as is needed for random changes in plot direction, the latest villain and/or new technology of the week can destroy everything up until the heroes learn to listen to the Force and use the power of friendship, and everyone's teenage son turns to the dark side and kills their parents with a red lightsaber to signify that they are now a Sith and this is what the Sith do and the latest Sith Lord is the one behind the wacky events of the novel series and is unmasked as really being Darth Vader or Palaptine all along

Frankly, for all the stupid poo poo that the Old EU had, the New EU has quickly turned out to not be any better, since, for instance, they've already established that the crystals used in lightsabers are sentient, Force-sensitive beings that the Sith have to brutally Force-rape into submission in order to use, which is the official explanation for why Sith lightsabers are all red: i.e. because their crystals are :wtf: broken, "bleeding" rape victims :wtf:. I dunno about you, but I still prefer the old explanation that the Sith use crappy, cheap synthetic crystals because the Jedi like to hoard the natural ones.

Anyways, here's some Ashens to keep on topic a bit.
