+HelloGreedo PONIES! You missed the ponies. Adding Ponies to the SW Expanded Universe almost killed Star Wars Universe for me. The horses were added to Evok adventures, either due to laziness or budgetary constraints. Ewoks riding the live action horses, were no longer the sentient teddy-bear like creatures, they were reduced to midgets in furry costumes. You see, when people hate Jar Jar Binks it's never JUST Jar Jar Binks it's everythig he's directly attached to. Like the fact that Lucas insisted on showing him in close ups next to real live action humans, pretending not to notice, how hideously unnatural it caused the CGI to look! Same with Ewoks. Star Wars very rarely uses creatures from Earth, other than Humans. If necessary it tends to use something similar, or it would come up with a cross between several earth creatures. Like Bantha. And for a good reason. Every fiction must be aware of its own limitations. Star Wars universe is already featuring humans, surrounded by lots of outworldly creatures. The Humans can be our guides, they are those, whom we can identify with. If You throw in live horses, cats, and dogs, and elephants and so on... the computer generated imagery as well as the crazy costumes, will look contrived and artificial, and the magic of Star Wars Universe wouldn't work!

Darth Armis Regardless, I thought the execution was pretty on point, and Witwer's voice acting for the character was absolutely excellent. I also like how they tied his story into the Mandalore arc; that was pretty clever. And of course, his confrontation with Palpatine brought forth one of my favorite lines from Sidious: "Remember the first and only reality of the Sith: there can only be two. And you are no longer my apprentice; you have been REPLACED." He's still alive as of the end of TCW, so I'm interested in seeing what eventually happens to him. Perhaps a final confrontation with Kenobi is in order, or even a one-on-one showdown with Vader? I'd be psyched to see either of those.

2:20 You know what is dumber than Boba surviving the Sarlac pit? HE FELL BACK IN. As covered in "Desk of Death Battle," in the comic "Jawas of DOOM," Boba Fett had found himself in the desert outside of the Sarlac with amensia. Laying in the desert, Boba Fett, one of the most well known and infamous bounty hunters in the galaxy wearing one of the most well known and iconic suits of armor of the galaxy is captured by Jawas, mistaking Boba for a droid. Don't ask me how, they just kind of do. Anyway, Boba is on a sand crawler, chilling with R2D2 (somehow R2 was captured by Jawas again for... reasons). Han and Leia come to save R2D2 and stumble upon Boba. Han for some reasons decides to try to save the man who literally sold him for a wall decoration, only for the name "Han Solo" to jog Boba's memory at the WORST possible time. The sandcrawler, out of control, DRIVES INTO THE SARLAC PIT. Oh, and somehow the Sarlac put grew to be about ten times bigger to be able to reasonably swallow the entire Sandcrawler.

Not sure what he thinks of the zombies in that show. Besides that show exists in both continuities. I think your problem is that you took this video as some sort of comparison between old and new Canon, when it wasn't. You're allowed to criticize both. If you're familiar with HG's videos beyond this one, you would know that their is plenty of new stuff that he dislikes.

Star Wars Tales has never been canon, just some mild entertainment, more often than not meant to be funny.

Nothing beats the trial of Han for Greedo's death. Palpatine is judge, Vader is bailiff, and in the end the footage that exonerates Han is considered dubious, as Palpatine is convinced it's been tampered with to appear as if Greedo shot first. This was an officially published story!

Basty135 And you learn how to make better excuses. No, manny stuff from EU wil never be rereleased or reprinted, mainly majority Dark horse comics. Plus, all new books and games will be part of cannon, which means that unfinished EU stories will never be finished and no new stories with EU character will ever be written again. Also, their hard work isn't in vain since they still got paid and got to enjoy writing/making their adaptations of Star Wars lore? That's like trying to build a car that would run on a cold fusion, for 20 years and than getting a tap in a back for it. Plus, why would anyone buy something that is not part of cannon, anymore? EU material will no longer be experienced by new fans. EU was somewhat cannonical for about a 30 years, and while some stories were rewritten, the makers usually had a great respect for EU, like The Clone Wars for example. There were much better ways of continuying EU legacy, without erasing it completely and at the same time, making new stories and movies. Certain huge comicbooks companies or famous sci-fi genres has been doing this for years. And that's not all. The reason why am I pissed of, is also, because so far, nothign from the New Cannon that was legitimately good, except one single books, made by...big shock...an EU author. Eu had some major bad stories, but for the most part it was solid. Neighter new games, animated series or even books or comics. Not to mention that Disney has been doing nostalgia fanservice, that si even worse than one in EU and is constantly changing stuff, even from Original Trilogy, just like prequels did. So, give a single reason, why should I pay my money, to a company that so far handled Star Wars brand like a joke and didn't deliver any good material after 2 years of owning it?

+Thane3999 "Many* stuff from the EU will never be rereleased or reprinted" Yeah it's a shame, but so what? You can still buy copies of them from comic book stores and the internet. A lot of things go out of print, doesn't mean it's impossible to find. Why do you need more printed when there is enough to go around anyway? "That's like trying to build a car that would run on a cold fusion, for 20 years and than getting a tap in a back for it." I disagree, it was inevitable anyway. Like I've stated before things go out of print because the demand isn't there anymore or if it has already been met. The writers had their time to write their stories and they did. That experience isn't replicated. A lot of people still enjoy their work and stories, so what's there to be upset about? For that fact that it isn't called "canon", or "official"? So what? Let me make this analogy; lets say we make a movie and finish it. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience of making said film but there are people who don't like it. Yet, we find that there are other people who do like it. Just because there are people who don't like it doesn't mean there aren't people who do, or that our experience was fruitless. If we got something out of it, that's what matters. Do you see what I'm saying?

I always thought that Boba Fett was intended as a joke and most people were too blind to get it. Of course he looks badass, he's supposed to. He's got a jetpack, cool armor, he hangs with Vader and Jabba. But not once do we ever see him do anything cool. The only action scene he's in he gets his gun cut in half immediately, he gets hit by a blind guy, and finally gets consumed by an asshole with spikes. I thought it was funny. Kind of the same joke as the Indiana Jones swordsman, but still funny. I just never understood why anybody thought he was so cool. As a kid I always thought he was kind of a pussy.

Sure, there are some good stories in the EU, but you have to stick with a concrete time line. The problem with canonizing the EU is you have to cherry pick what is cannon and what is not. You'll wind up with a very confusing story line because you would not be sure which book/comic/video game is cannon and which is not.

Who's to say that the characters and plot of TFA are not going to be interesting? Rebels is a TV show for kids. You don't find it interesting, but it works for their target audience. My 6 year old loves it. We are getting storm troopers again, but we are seeing behind the mask in Finn. Cinematically, we've never had any background of what it's like to be a storm trooper. Just "Have you seen the new T-16?" I think seeing Finn go from storm trooper to resistance fighter will be awesome. What if Kylo Ren was created by Palpatine before he died? Palpatine mentioned in EP3 that his old master was able to create life. What if Palpatine figured out how, too? That would give Anakin and Kylo a unique connection and explain why he's obsessed with Vader. So, yes, there are a lot of different things this new movie could delve into and it has everything to do with being free to create a new story and not being bound by what's written by multiple people and some not even connected to in anyway to Lucasfilm.

For the 2nd one, the Clone Wars did a good job of saying earth words but still making it fit. The way they usually did it was by saying the word to describe something, and then saying it's real name. Like how somebody called the Nightsisters witches before they revealed they were called Nightsisters. Or when someone told Anakin and Obi Wan those aliens were angels before the aliens told them their actual name. Sure sometimes in Star Wars they make it work without changing the name. When they do that they do it by semi-changing the meaning. Like when young Anakin asks young Padmé if she's an angel, but then talks about mythical creatures living on some moon instead of earth-angels like the ones from the Christian bible.

I would say Darth Maul surviving is a bigger case of fan service than Fett. At least I can believe someone escaping the sarlacc, especially someone that well equipped. Darth Maul was cut in half and fell down a pit that was deep enough to kill him from the fall, then he somehow ended up with spider legs, on a different planet, and was found by his brother that we never heard of until now, yeah that shit is stupid.

George Lucus actually kind of regreted the way he executed Boba Fett's death. He never actually realised the popularity and significance of the character within the fandom. He still stated he would have killed him regardless. However he would change how it was done.

Having just finished reading Deathtroopers, I can vouch for it. Spoilers, you have been warned. The disease, unlike usual zombies, starts way before the host dies, and it's a creative take. A hive is trying to control your mind by constantly reminding you of your deepest, darkest memories until you succumb to it in order to make the memories stop. It behaves much like the Genosians afterwards. Not only that, the Deathtroopers are now canon, through the Imperial Death Troopers who were named after the project that created the hive mind. However, these two are not related, Death Troopers don't have any connection with the hive.

As explained by HelloGreedo, Dark Empire lessens the sacrifice of Vader to defeat the Sith, The Force Unleashed weakened Vader (the undefeated villain) by being defeated twice by a Mary-Sue character whose force powers were designed more for an Iron Man movie, and Boba Fett's death is meaningless (if intended to survive, why have him at all on the Barge and not back at the Palace?) I disagree with your point on the story group. The difference here is that the old EU (while accepted as "canon" by fans) was never truly canon. Lucas often stated that he never wanted the Emperor to be cloned, Luke to be married or anything else that the books said. With the new slate, it's all being created from one coherent story group who then allow writers to expand creatively but under strict supervision.

I think "Star Wars Death Troopers" would make a cool horror Star Wars anthology

Oh btw: “in j.j. we trust“ that aged reaaaally poorly. Especially with the emporer lives statement.

i have to disagree with the boba fett one

Star Wars Tales was never cannon. They were fun "what if" stories from different writers to explore fun concepts and play around in the Star Wars Galaxy. A lot of the EU is just fan fiction, but at the same time there was some stuff in it that was at times, WAY better than some of the stuff in the movies. Then again these are all a matter of preference and personal taste.

I think the funniest thing about Boba Fett in the EU is that he gets our of the Sarlacc, only to fall back again not that long after (again, thanks to an oblivious Han Solo)

I can't tell if you're just looking for bait with these choices, but if you think Fett's escape was among the "worst things" of the old EU you're just crazy. How could anyone who loves Star Wars be content with that lame tumble in RotJ?

@@GladDori I've played both JK and JC stories in SW:ToR and I don't recall any Force-using droids. Are you sure it wasn't any sidequest? The only other explanation is that I don't remember any Force-using droids, because there were none and that Jedi just went insane

How zombies don't fit? It's explained quite well how they came to be and it makes sense. Also i can't see how Boba being alive is a bad thing either. You claim he was a badass bounty hunter and it was only fanservice that they brought him back, but in the original trilogy, we didn't know he was a badass, all he did was track Han, Vader handed him Han when he was frozen and then he was knocked into the Sarlacc pit (with an especially pathetic perfromance). Then EU came and the prequel trilogy and people found out how much of a badass he is supposed to be. I can see why people wanted him back when he had so little going on in the original trilogy.

+Koloricsi Explain to me how a zombie plague hasn't spread galaxy-wide in a matter of a few years. I mean, any real-world flu epidemic spreads in a matter of a few weeks, from all the travel between countries. In Star Wars, we have interstellar travel, and entire planets to spread to, wildlife included. Besides, the question isn't how can there be zombies in Star Wars. The question is: should there? I don't think there should, not only it doesn't make sense (for the reason I stated above) but also it doesn't seem to fit to what the theme of Star Wars really is.

This dude has a shirt on that says "in jj we trust". I think he would love a star wars movie even if it were like that movie in Idiocracy where a dude is kicked in the nuts the whole time.

Okay, hang on just a minute. Skippy was from the Star Wars: Tale, and was never meant to be canonical. He was from the "Infinities" area of comics, comics that were done to be fun, or outrageous, or silly, or to explore different "what if" scenarios. These were never actually taken seriously as a part of canon. Skippy was SUPPOSED to be ridiculous. It wasn't "explaining" anything.

It's like you don't even know what you're talking about, the reason for the Gungans being reanimated was clearly explained in the Republic Comic and the Jedi Droid wasn't even canon in the EU. I admit that while I loved the EU , and that I was disappointed when it was scrapped I understand why it was scrapped. The post-ROTJ EU would have never synced with this new stuff and I get this, but we traded 30+ years of quality stories ( and admittedly some crap) for sub-par novels, a decent kids show, and an OT Fanboys wet dream. I have tried liking this new canon and I have tried accepting the opinions of casual fans like yourself, but when you take a couple examples from the EU then decide to cast a blanket statement about the other hundreds of works that comprises the EU I can't help but get A little annoyed.

+Chris Rosevear Not in that context, I was thought it was clear that I was referring to the type of fan that even prior to the canon reboot wrote off the Legends continuity based on ill-informed opinions. He cites two sources that are widely considered jokes and non-canon within the legends continuity , dismisses a compelling storyline based on personal tastes and preferences, then misrepresents a storyline to support his own views. Not to mention that he Disparages the EU for having done the exact same things that this new canon has, especially in regards to resurrections and using real-world words . Regardless of how much of the old and new canon Hello Greedo follows, I don't believe that a true Star Wars Fan casts aspersions on an entire continuity based on misrepresentations and a couple of admittedly poor stories. I have read every piece of available material of this new canon and have found the majority of it wanting, but unlike Hello Greedo I don't cast it in a poor light based on my personal tastes nor do I imply to others that the EU as whole was better than this New Canon. But I'm going off on a tangent. In short, I refer to Hello Greedo as a casual fan not based on the quantity of source material he has followed, but rather the fact that he dismisses an entire branch of the Star Wars lore (whether canon or not) as generally worthless.

It's not about that, it's about allowing the business partners to continue Legends. They always were the ones to do justice to it, all Lucasfilm had to do was license it and sign off on continuity checklists, which is mind-numbingly simplistic in the age of wikis and digital information. We don't need their seal of approval, we require their _permission._ There is a difference, not every EU fan is asking for older lore to be made "canon" again, and I'm certainly not. I want the original storyline continued, and that's beyond them, somehow. Even if they call it non-canon "fanfiction," as Chuck Wendig once sneered, "go write fanfiction," well, whaddya know, we don't even get an official FANFICTION magazine to continue it from willing fan writers. Look at the Legacy of the Force storyline. Fans got to vote on the name of a major Sith Lord. Imagine that! That's kinda wild, doesn't it make you a bit jealous over all we've lost? It does for me.

Hey remember how Palpatine surviving is now canon?

4:48 that's not legends nor canon. That's a comic book that pokes fun like tales of tag and bink

I can't decide what I like more; his absolute lack of research outside of reading a few Wookieepedia articles or his smug attitude, thinking his arguments are flawless and all EU fans are just cowering in fear of his perfect takedown of the whole EU. Oh, I know, the fact that all of his points are completely fucking invalid.
