But you have Snoke and KOR to look forward to, and whoever Benecio Del Toro's gonna play, etc. The Dark Side is going to be bad ass, even if Kylo is not involved.

That was going to be my next point. We already know there are evil forces out there bigger than Kylo Ren. And in Episode 8 we likely have Snoke, Del Toro, Captain Phasma, whatever other bag guys are brought in. The too many cooks theory.
 
Nah, it's just weird.

"I want something shitty to happen so I can wallow in the internet roadkill like a dog with heastroke."

That's weird.

Especially since over in the non-spoiler thread you seem put out by Into Darkness when it follows you should be on your back with a lopsided grin and your tongue lolling out at the very concept of magic tribble blood.

I thought Into Darkness was awful. The writing had more holes than swiss cheese and crapped over classic Trek completely. Not to mension being a half assed rip off of Wrath of Kahn
I'm not even a massive Trek fan, but that movie was garbage.
 
Didn't it come from the same person who showed us the Kanjiklub pages though? Or was that from the visual dictionary book?

The Kanjiklub images are from the Visual Dictionary, but people who have seen that book confirm Snoke looks similar in it.

Will Harloff delete these tweets before Thursday?
 
Harloff took to Twitter to "CONFIRM" the art book image isn't Snoke:

Thats his MO.
You were just being crazy trying to claim the EU shouldn't have been thrown out. ;)You are always good with me LastNac!

Though it is crazy how that mindset is completely gone after the Aftermath craziness. I don't see anyone left trying to push the EU anymore online. I wonder where they all went.GAF even had its own little EU community for years in a EU thread, that is long gone now. It's like the Jedi after Order 66.

There are some diehard holdouts on the Lit board on TFN, and the BBL "movement" is still a thing on Facebook and Youtube. Plus Wookieepedia editors.


I do wish they'd let Legends continue as a smaller sub-continuity, even if it was just in Insider, since there are still so many gaps in the timeline that could be filled out.
 
What gets me is that he definitively claims that the art book shots are not snoke period. He doesn't say it's not the final design. He said it's not him.

Which would mean whoever faked it was fantastic at graphical design.
 
He is not going to buckle then when he sees it on Monday they won't mention anything about it.

Act like they never knew

they're going to have to acknowledge it. They could've gotten away with it if they just left it at the disney take down, but since then Harloff has back up his claims multiple times. People won't let it slide.
 
Where the hell is the soundtrack?!
And why do the people leaking pics of things like the Visual Dictionary leak the most inconsequential bs?


I'm so hungry.

We're waiting to strike, sitting just on the edge.
 
It says Snoke 02 and 06 on the image descriptions, implying that there were lots of Snoke designs like there were with Kylo. He could look different no?

Sure. Why would he end up looking like Plagueis in the EU? Did they fire the art director late and they just gave up?

They may not be Star Wars fans.

But if 06 is a maquette/mockup of what 02 looked like it stands to reason that they probably settled on a variation of 02 as the look going forward. Especially considering the quotes attached.
 
Harloff is setting himself up for some major crow. Even after he's proven wrong about Snoke's design next week, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he and Campea keep insisting that Snoke's still really Darth Plagueis in disguise all the way through the releases of Episodes VIII and IX.

KOTOR is a part of the EU, and KOTOR 1 and 2 are better than the SW films- all of them.
 
For anyone who didn't want to squint to read what it said on the Kanjiklub photo, someone on TFN transcribed it:

An Outer Rim gang of ruffians that often comes into conflict with the Guavian Death Gang, Kanjiklub has found a common ground with their rivals in the form of mutual hatred of Han Solo. The Sly Correllian Smuggler has borrowed money from both outfits to complete his risky cargo haul and neither organization cares for Solo taking such risks with their capital. Add to that, Solo has twice left Kanjiklub empty handed after failure to deliver cargo.

Tasu Leech is the nominal leader of the scuffy Kanjiklub gang. Unlike their more organized and polished Guavian rivals, Kanjiklub resembles an unruly group of street fighters and weapon wielding thugs who dabble in extortion, piracy and starship theft. Leech is not one for elaborate plans and rarely thinks beyond the next raid. Traditional to his frontier roots, he refuses to speak a word of Basic, deeming it a soft language for soft people, though he can understand it well enough.

During their long enslavement by the Hutts, the human colonists of Nar Kanji developed fighting styles that incorporated improvised weaponry, both melee and ranged. The modern Kanjiklubbers celebrate the ingenuity that kept their ancestors alive, and typically equip themselves with intimidating patchwork armor, jury-rigged rifles, blades, and clubs.

A lieutenant to Tasu Leech, Razo Qin-Fee was banned from the underworld Zygerrian fighting circuit for suspected cheating- remarkable for a sport that has no rules. A pyromanic and tech expert, Razzo maintains the hodgepodge weaponry and explosives favored by wild kanjklubbers, frequently upgrading and modifying their tools of the trade to sinister and exacting specifications.

So Han is back to being a smuggler after being a General in the Rebellion helping to establish The New Republic or whatever JJ's version of it is called?
Guess he is like an addict going back to what he knows is a safe career retreat after Leia dumps him after the Jedi temple massacre leaves his relationship in shambles?
He must not know his son is alive or that stuff wouldn't really make much sense? He would probably go on a decade long crusade to save him otherwise.

Maybe he did go looking for a decade. Hence why he isn't married to Leia or at least with her.

Will be interesting to see if the movie has answers for that.
Also if Kylo is some established baddie in that time, the Resistance surely would get word that a new black clad Force powered villain is taking names for the First Order.
And wouldn't that cause alarm bells for Leia and Han and they would mobilize the Resistance to capture that guy?
 
Well Aftermath had an interlude where Han and Cheewie lea e a New Republic mission to go free the wookies. May e that gets him court martialed, or what ever happens to his son makes him fall on old habits.

The call sheet possibly answers this. Han becomes interested in helping when they talk about the Order and Kylo Ren. And Han directly confronts him in the second act. Initially he doesn't want to help them. Some speculate he helps because they mention Luke.

I know it's slightly...normal, but it's totally understandable that having your child go full-on radicalized psychopath would cause a rift in a relationship and each party buried themselves in their work and/or what they're use to.

Anyway, not long now! Should be soon that we get the soundtrack, impressions and reviews.

What's with this pseudo fan-fueled politics though? Fuck that shit, a new Star Wars come out in a few days. Forget the old EU, forget everything else; we're about to witness the first step into a new era for Star Wars, whatever that may bring.
