Read for context, you foreign trash. EU = Expanded Universe, the name for basically all Star Wars novels, of which there are over a hundred.

And why we can't have nice things. Of course the "foreign trash" comment was rather funny. I laughed.

Personally, I'd like to see a blend of things: following up with Luke, Leia, et. al., and discovering what the next generation is up to. Both have interesting story elements.

Worst. Euphemism. Ever.

Me? As a diehard Christian, I'm not one for the pure humanism side. I'm actually with you there. That warm, happy universe that Trek portrays will never happen, and it's arrogance to think otherwise. But at least these shows tried to be about something. TNG had a lot of great episodes that managed to explore the human condition without being preachy. They tried to think. Yeah, X, IX, V, they all sucked, but they tried to say something. Identity and destiny in "Nemesis", conscience and integrity in "Insurrection", the search for God in "V"...big ideas, if perhaps badly executed.

Dude, minor changes are fine. I'm talking about major stuff. As in people that are alive who should be dead, or vice versa.

What if they were like Chris and Stephenie? That'd be cool, right?

Do you really want to know? If so, then...


GIGANTIC SPOILER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!










Yes, Fett is alive. He's still alive when Luke Skywalker's in his 60s, and Fett is like mid-70s if I recall correctly, as far forward as the Luke Skywalker era goes.

Don't you dare mention "Phantom Menace" with "very best parts of the whole Star Wars experience" ever again.

EVER.
