Jumping ship waaaaay too early. Did you quit TCW after the movie with the lovable adventures of Stinky the Hutt? As with TCW, Rebels is a show that improves with each episode. At least make it to Rise of the Old Masters before heading for the escape pods.
I would like to discuss this hypothetical cosplayer.
What motivated them, why did this character inspire so much work to be put into a costume? Just how authentic is this costume anyway? Are they resentful about the Legends decision?
So it looks like FOX couldn't wait for the official return of Twin Peaks.
So instead, they let M. Night Shyamalan make this:
The director's cut of Chronicles of Riddick is a decent film. Though I hate the introduction of powers and what not. People loved Pitch Black for the gritty Sci-Fi atmosphere and then for a sequel they turned the universe into a fantasy world.

This is comedy but I'm sure people like this really exist. As Padme would say, they're breaking my heart.
There's no way that warranted a new thread. Clearly the solution here is for you to add a NO EU rule in the first post. And or see someone about this irrational prejudice of yours. =P
Well here's hoping someone drops your name in the hat to compose for one of the spin-offs! Based on what I've heard, I think you'd do an excellent job.
Seeing as his post didn't fit either of the Like/Hate EU threads I'd say it fit here. But that's just like, my opinion man.
Is that a random thought or observation? If they actually do that, that's terrible!
Is the EU not a part of Star Wars? O_o
While we're remastering things, can we get a remaster of this masterpiece?

I think the final episode did a lot to bridge the gap between prequel Yoda and OT Yoda. Been a while since I've seen it though.
Sounds like a twofold amercement....
I always just refer to him as Old Ben.
If you're looking for a great adventure game, I definitely can't recommend Kentucky Route Zero enough!
No blueprint of the Falcon up to now has ever had an oil bath. The layout of the ship is something that's pretty iconic and I don't see them suddenly changing it. That plus Han has never cared for droids so why would he have that kind of facility on his ship to begin with.
It's hard to to judge because most of Marvel's Star Wars covers haven't had anything to do with the actual content of the book.
They've just published synopsis for a number of young reader novels. Most appear to be set between SW and ESB:
Lost Stars

But still...

I love the prequels because they’re wonderfully made, have gorgeous imagery and sound, great storyline and fascinating characters, deep and complicated. The prequels offer a widest range of feelings and thoughts to the viewer, make you cry and laugh from joy, open your eyes to things you could never imagine without them.
The prequels enrich the saga and the whole cinematography with new situations, possibilities, choices, new levels of wisdom that unites different lands and times, new multiple colors to the kaleidoscopic variety of life that is reflected in the saga, the variety that reaches harmony in the saga taken as a whole.
I love the prequels because they’re a part of the saga that changed my life for the better, that makes me feel like I have wings. The saga that would be lacking something essential without any of its episodes.I have no words.
Star Wars #3
Sigh. One step forward, another step back. The mini-series are far surpassing the main title. Here we have another cover to cover non-stop over the top misadventure.
John Cassady's art has steadily improved with each issue, the same unfortunately cannot be said for the writing. Jason Aaron just does not have a solid grasp on the voices of any of the characters. The dialog comes off as stilted with a lot of odd word choices.
Han especially suffers from this. For example, Han apparently thinks of Threepio as being some kind of bag as twice now he's either referred to him as a "sack of springs" or just a plain old "rust sack." He also strangely accused Threepio of slacking off by taking an oil bath when the Falcon isn't equipped for that.
Hopefully after this storyline has concluded they'll slow down the pace and get a better grasp on the characters.
Definitely looking forward to Daredevil. I'm not completely sold on D'Onofrio as Kingpin but it'll be an interesting performance at the very least.
