    everything they ever said about the clone wars before george shat out those movies made it sound like the clones were the enemy. look at how america names wars.

    it also seems like they should’ve taken place more than 20 years before a new hope, and the story is way worse for his not paying attention to his own notes.

      Yeah, the original films make it sound like all that stuff happened in the distant past, and that’s what EU authors ran with. tbh I mostly just love the Thrawn books and want more of that shit straight into my veins plx

        there was a certain spark in the old eu that the disney well curated one just doesnt match. Sure there was a lot of weird stuff and even creepy SA shit in some of the old eu but the new disney stuff isnt all bangers either.

        or maybe it seems cooler cause i was a child and immersed myself fully into Kyle Katarn etc etc. emilie-shrug
