I can't believe no one has mentioned Splinter of the Mind's Eye. Luke and Leia go to a swamp planet looking for a ruby that amplifies force powers to infinity. They bang in the cockpit of a Y-Wing. Then they kill Darth Vader by pushing him down a well. It's actually worse than it sounds.

Cyberball 2072 posted:Yep, there are parts of Thrawn that are okay, but even the Best of The Best EU is full of really dumb bullshit. The Thrawn and X-wing stuff really isn't that bad when you realize it's written for 12 year old boys. It's funny how bad Kevin J. Anderson is, even in that context.

Grimlook posted:Yeah for me , Anakin building C3PO is way more offencive that the midiclorians thing. Why the gently caress would a slave boy need a protocol droid for?? Anakin building C3PO was really dumb but having them in the movie does kind of fit. There's a theme of technology regressing under the Empire that that fits in with really well. A better writer could have found a better place for him though. If they'd made 3PO an assistant to Palpatine or some other kind of bad guy it could have actually been an interesting point of character development with his memory wipe being somewhat meaningful instead of a filled plothole. Also jet pack R2 was really dumb and out of place.
