I hope Dash Rendar comes back.Wheat Loaf posted:I've only read the novel, but I understand the game was quite good. I believe there's also a trading card of Leia kicking Prince Xizor (who's the sleaziest guy ever; his special ability is being able to exhale rophynol) in the nuts, so that's cool. The game was great for its time but aged poorly. The releasing of his rohypnol pheromones turns him pink. Straight from the SOTE graphic novel: Fortunately, Chewbacca interrupts, giving her enough time to realize that she'd been effectively drugged. She then stays behind to continue acting as a distraction while Chewie escapes:

VirtualStranger posted:Holy poo poo that looks loving terrible The book also had some pretty hosed up lines during this whole thing. Xixor is a terrible, creepy, Mary Sue villain. I'm glad Leia kicked him in the balls, but I wish the whole situation never happened. I mean, there were some fun parts to the book too, but between this and Dash Rendar having to deal with PTSD, it sometimes went to weird places.

HIJK posted:Vader going full blown papa wolf on Xizor's rear end is the best part of Shadows of the Empire. But he was being protective of Luke, not Leia. He never even knew Leia had been captured by Xixor.

Wasn't Prince Xizor brought up in Spaced or Clerks with the main characters talking about how stupid the pronunciation of his name was?

The Outrider has been confirmed as canonical: http://ca.ign.com/articles/2015/04/30/shadows-of-the-empires-outrider-confirmed-as-star-wars-canon Whether or not Disney will extend that to Dash Rendar or any other Shadows-related material remains to be seen.

Don't forget about Rude C-3PO and the Fem Bot from Austin Powers!

I've given it a second chance since it's on Netflix, I'm enjoying it enough as something to put on in the background. The episodes that focus on droids, Jar Jar, or younglings looked pretty dull and I quickly skipped them, but any episode with space pirates, clone troopers, or bounty hunters is usually pretty good. Hondo is a great antagonist, and Ventress's arc gets progressively more interesting.
