      @@limnakama I, for one, clearly and vividly remember Chewie bending over to receive his medal from Leia in the original film. Now, it does not show Chewbacca get a medal. He flew the falcon in combat, blasted many troopers, and was absolutely pivotal in rescuing Princess ( demoted to general in subsequent movies) Leia and the destruction of the Death Star. So why would George Lucas knowingly disrespect Chewie? Check the movie if you remember different. Chewbacca comics 2015 and Smugglers Run 2019 can not count simply because they were introduced 40 years later and plus we see with our eyes everyone but Chewie get a medal in the movie. What does the original book say? I should check.

Since Disney has decided to not use the expanded universe they are building their own storyline using the bits they want and throwing out everything else.

A timeline where palpatine *somehow* survives getting a) thrown down a hole which then b) vaporises him, and c) exploded so hard it disintegrates the Death Star, negating not only Anakin’s incredibly compelling redemption arc, but also the accomplishments of the entire OT? Or would you rather believe in the timeline where actions have consequences and choices matter and characters have depth and limitations which make them human and interesting, and gives the stories in which they star weight and emotion and, ya know…a reason to exist other than to make cool CGI explosions happen?

    When you hear the whole story all together, it really shows how epic the new canon is since its all properly interwoven.

      They could have had Ahsoka play a more major role in the sequel trilogy if they had waited and done a different sequel trilogy now instead of making a, for lack of a better term, half assed attempt at Star Wars. It may be fun for people who aren’t big Star Wars fans and don’t know everything, but to true fans it just feels like an insult. But hey I’m just stating my opinion. The overall cannon as a whole is predominately amazing up to that point.

    • @TheCornFarmer1989
      @TheCornFarmer1989 4 года назад +3

      I dunno, it's more concrete and structured sure, but its certainly far less in depth and less epic. Compare the mandalorian wars in legends, as well as the jedi civil war following to the canon mandalorian wars for example. Though Its my opinion that it's best everyone create their own canon and pick n choose what they think is best. For example I discount most of the Disney stuff before episode 1 and after episode 6 in replace for much higher quality and awe inspiring than Disney's meagre attempt at those same eras

      Disney in their great wisdom trashed the EU. If anyone spent any time reading the stories of the EU there were enough stories to be told for dozens of movies and instead, 7 ate 9, and nothing is left - what a mess. The shadow of the sequels is a pale reflection of what could have been. Just a complete waste. How could it have all come to this? Where's is the family? Where's are the relationships. Luke didn't marry. Han and Leia have only one child. These have got to be the worse showrunners in the galaxy by far.

    • @kingkwon7777
      @kingkwon7777 4 года назад +1

      maxskyfan Exactly. Luke, by the end of the OT, had already learned from the Jedi’s past mistakes and so in the EU his new Jedi order was different from the old. In the Disney movies Luke makes no changes to the order (adhering to the “sacred Jedi texts!” even though he disobeyed two Jedi masters and refused to kill Vader which redeemed him) and now all of a sudden “the Jedi must end?” But don’t worry, Rey Skywalker Palpatine will show the galaxy how it’s all done.
