In retrospect, I kinda think the Thrawn trilogy was a hard act to follow, and that it took Bantam awhile to find their feet. The Truce of Bakura, The Courtship of Princess Leia, the Jedi Academy trilogy and The Crystal Star; all had some interesting ideas, but were on the whole, mediocre. At the time, we were just grateful for ANY new Star Wars novels.

Very nice. I just bought a bunch of bantam books. I really should make a vid too

The old EU I can remember being super excited for each new book. And The cover art was always cool. John Alvin or Drew Struzan. Or even Tom Jung. I'd go into a bookstore and come out with some books, either B Dalton or Waldenbooks both now gone. Even the bookstore I bought my New Jedi Order books and prequel books at Borders is gone. Both of the news stores I frequented to buy comics are also gone.

I think when Ko Sai said “units” he wasn’t talking about individual humans. There were probably way more clone troopers than that

“This will only be legends”. Me: oh yeah this is the right way to do it 😎

Kennedy Star Wars has had about four times the movies that never happen under Kennedy than movies that did Zack Snider Star Wars Boba Fett movie Star Wars Detours Star wars trilogy by Rian Johnson Rangers of the New Republic that Kennedy fired the Star Gina Carano Episode nine by Colin Trevarrow The Obi Wan Kinobi trilogy The Benioff-Wiess star wars movie Star wars by Kevin Feigi Rogue Squadron The Acolyte Droids Lando The Rey movie that starts a new trilogy Speaking of the Rey movie, the the director sharmeen obaid chinoy is more along the lines of news shows than movies or tv shows and is another SJW feminist who thinks that men should be made uncomfortable. You have canceled about four times as many movies as you have released I think you should get passed the female male controversy and forget about the SJW politics and just make good movies

It was fun while it lasted but now it's dead.

17:50 I immidietly assumed that Anakin used the Force for soften Padme's landing.

Awesome vid! I’ve always loved AOTC..

I love the mystery of the clones , Kamino, the Sith in background

What song is that at the start?

AotC and RotS are my two favourite movies (with TESB coming a close third) They're pretty much flawless; carefully crafted movies - from the concept art by Erik Tiemens and Ryan Church right through to the finished product. I haven't read *all* the EU novels yet....Dark Rendezvous is definitely on my tbr list - two books that I've read this week have been: Millennium Falcon, (talk about missed opportunities; Leia's autobiography: "The Crook, the Wook, and Me" mentioned in the novel would have been great!) and Legacy of the Force: Betrayal. So many of the deleted scenes definitely should have been incorporated into the movie: one that springs to mind is where Padme explaining her work on a relief mission in her youth to Anakin; of a non-human race that couldn't survive away from their homeworld. One of the Lost Twenty could have been Jedi Master Djinn Altis from "No Prisoners".

Fun video! Boles Roor is the GOAT! I really enjoyed writing the character for the fanfiction series!

Thanks for having me on man!

It's been so long since I read this book that I'd forgotten just how mediocre it was. Adding to the unnecessary plots of the Jedi younglings adventures, and the incessant sabacc games, there's Han Solo taking Kyp Durron skiing in the polar regions of Coruscant (?) The Luke Skywalker depicted in this trilogy *isn't* the same as the intensely focused Jedi Master we saw in the Dark Empire series. Admiral Daala, I feel, was okay as the renegade Imperial - not every big bad can measure up to Grand Admiral Thrawn. What was interesting was the depiction of the relationship between Wedge Antilles and Qwi Xux - it's a shame the subsequent writers in the EU didn't pursue that - that's showing anti-alien bias right there. 😜

I enjoyed this trilogy. Thanks for the review.

It needs to come back in some shape or form. I don’t really care for the new Star Wars. This is really the true Star Wars for me and I need to know what happens to Ben Skywalker and Taheri and Jaina

That was the old expanded universe.

Bit of feedback The music in the start of the video is a bit too loud, couldn’t really hear you too well

At the start of the video with "Disney Shills", I was getting definite "Friends" vibes - a comedy/drama series set in the offices of The Sinister House of Mouse. 😀 All these constant announcements of "exciting" new trilogies are just Disney Wars blowing smoke up the a$$e$ of investors. The really hardcore Star Wars fans have long since tuned out and treat these things with the contempt they deserve.

Nobody cares though, we are officially at apathy. Because for every project that gets made there are dozens that never did, or never will. What did Kreia say? apathy is death, apathy is worse than death.

Tell me it's not true!

Nice eulogy 🪦😢

Star Wars has “died” so many times. Ok, so is it dead for sure now?

Boycotted since Disney started taking Star Wars down a path I could not follow. It was very dangerous putting Star Wars and Disney together. I don't think the company can handle it. I don't trust them.

The Race, Sexist blame game.🤦‍♂️🙂‍↔️🛑🔒🗣️😕🔐👤

I used to be a star wars fan but years of Disney has proven I'm wasting my time and money hoping for good quality star wars content. Andor season 2 will be a last hurrah for me and that'll be the end of it. Honestly tho what really killed star wars for me is the community. It used to be about sharing the love of star wars now its why i hate Disney or why i love Disney. Endless sniping on both sides. Screw that ima go play Warhammer.

Don't you people ever get tired of pissing and moaning like petulant toddlers? Instead of spending all your time shitting on something, find a new fandom that you actually enjoy. You're the South Park goth kids of fans and it's boring and pathetic and it must be so exhausting.

1977-2008**

we can thank the assholes on the red letter media for this hate for lucas.

Man I’m so glad you started off the video with George Lucas selling his company and showed a picture of him signing the deal. People never give him any smoke for selling Star Wars in the first place. Disney deserves all the smoke they get for ruining it, but George Lucas is the one who sold it in the first place.

I couldn’t agree more. Thanks for putting this video together.

BortaS bIr jablu'DI' reH QaQqu' nay' to Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams, Dave Filoni, Rian Johnson & Leslye Headland!

Dear Jesus, what have I done!

The only Star Wars I still even bother with now is the old Expanded Universe comic books and video games. Everything that has come out directly under the mouse is all fan-fiction nonsense. Much like what Amazon's Rangs of Power is to Tolkien's Middle-earth.

For me it is 1977-1983, but at least the prequel didn't break the lore.

he shouldn't have make that deal with Disney, Disney is like a virus, destroying every thing it touches, Disney should stick to cartoon, that is what there are good at.

Your lament is tellingly short on actual critiques of Disney-era Star Wars. I'm reminded of an analysis of why rock bands lose fans over time: The bands don't get less good, the fans get less interested. Perhaps what this video represents isn't a decline in the quality of Star Wars, but a waning of your personal interest in it.

Disney killed Star Wars! I've known that since the beginning. But Disney has killed most everything they've touched since they went woke.

Well, it was a good 35 years, I'm just proud and glad to have experienced it from day 1 And I still have at least 50 books from the EU as well as the games of the time to scratch that Star Wars itch that pops up from time to time

Star Wars the force awakens cured me of ever going to the cinema, 2015 was the last time went.

Anything outside the original 6 are irrelevant

Can guys stop being so hyperbolic and silly. Star Wars has always been a mixed bag. Like you had the masterpiece which is a new hope followed up immediately with the Star Wars holiday special. OT followed up with caravan of garbages and the PT. Then the pt followed up with an awful TCW movie then we got a fantastic TCW show. With great and terrible EU stuff in between. Just like with Disney. It’s not ALL bad or ALL good and Star Wars isn’t dead. Andor is one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Fallen order is one of the best games I’ve played. Rogue one is one of the best movies I’ve seen. The Vader comics are some of the best comics I’ve ever read. I’ve been a Star Wars fan since I was like 4 years old. I love Star Wars. I saw TPM in cinema. But I acknowledge reality. It’s never been a perfect franchise. And I’m sick of this toxic echo chamber that has been built up around much of the online fandom. People need to go touch grass. It’s honestly boring how guys on here just constantly repeat the same crap over and over. It’s a grift. It’s silly. It’s tiring. It’s boring. If you hate it so much now just stop watching and move on with your life simple as. Don’t make hate your whole personality. You’re going against George’s whole philosophy. Stop making dumb revisionist content that is antithetical to reality it’s just sad. My stance is that I take things as they come and try to be fair and unbiased.

Yeah, it truly was a dark day when Disney acquired the IP for Star Wars. From the get-go, when The Farce Awakened, Disney proved their inability to create decent Star Wars content; there was no carefully crafted passing of the torch to the next generation as witnessed in the EU novel: "Crucible". Sadly, the shape of things to come. And as for Trash-the-Canon Dave Filoni - there was dialogue in the radio adaptation of Star Wars, where Ben Kenobi spoke of Darth Vader to young Luke - it could almost have been George Lucas speaking of Filoni: "It's not a story to be told simply, or briefly. Suffice it to say that there was a young Jedi who was a pupil of mine, perhaps my most brilliant one, until he was seduced by the dark side of the Force and turned to evil....".

It was the biggest monkeys paw ever

Whoever is bought in to make a film needs complete immunity from studio, aka KK, interference.

It's probably wrong of me, but I kinda *like* these types of videos, charting the various trials and tribulations of Disney's reimagined Star Wars - then again, you can't really have much sympathy for an organisation that are quick to label fans as r@cists and mysogynists if they don't support Disney's dubious products.
