Also, how could there be scenes missing from the novelization? Most novelizations are written by, essentially, taking the script of the film and then writing it in novelized form. Usually this results in scenes being ADDED to the novel that aren't present in the movie, and I've never once heard of a novel missing scenes that were present in the movie.


Well, all I know is that there are a few scenes of the Wookie battle in the trailers and not once does Stover actually take us to the planet or the battle. There are a few communications with Yoda, but those are all done via hologram. In the novel we never see the battle, nor is Chewbacca even mentioned. We know for a fact that Chewie is the one who rescues Yoda after Order 66 is instigated. So, you draw your own conclusions as to why this stuff is missing. All I'm saying is that it isn't in the novel but it's in the trailer and very obviously in the movie.
