Star Wars

Like, sentient/intellegent specesis, like humans, Mirilains, Toydarians, etc., in any sort of canon media.

I personally would like to see more of the Talz, Gen'Dai, Chiss, Parwans, Ugors, and Vintians. Especially the Vintians.

Like, imagine a live-action show with a Vintian character-

It isn't a part of the history.

So, a bit of short introductory story that may seem a bit "dear diary"-esqueway; back in late 2015, 18 year old me caught the first season of *Rebels* on a local channel. I still remember being super intrigued by not just the characters and the story, but also the setting and all its concepts. I had some rudimentary knowledge of Star Wars from pop culture (and Angry Birds: Star Wars II), so moments like Obi-Wan's Holo message or Vader walking down the ramp in the end actually gave me some goosebumps because I knew those characters were *important*, and Kanan drawing his saber for the first time was probably when I came to love the Jedi Knights.

After reading the plots of the films on Wikipedia, I eventually got to watch the Lucas Saga on another local channel when they announced a marathon in 2016. The Original Trilogy was probably my favorite even back then, with RotJ being my personal favorite film. I enjoyed the prequel trilogy films enough, and was actually surprised to discover they were hated by the general audience. (These days, I can definitely agree with many of the criticisms, but I still like them a lot for the story. Epecially RotS). I eventually watched TFA, which I found to be unnecessary on a conceptual level, and honestly didn't like it at all because I found it to be too depressing. Then TLJ came out, and I realized that this trilogy wasn't for me. Eventually, I watched TCW and the rest of *Rebels*. So the films led to the shows, which then led to comics, which then led to books, which eventually led to games. Needless to say, I became a pretty big Star Wars nerd.

Why am I writing this? I guess it's to say that while I strongly dislike TFA, that period was definitely a renaissance for Star Wars that brought in a lot of newer fans, of which I am one. I believe that Star Wars as a whole has always existed in a state of ebbing and flowing. For example, I think Star Wars' popularity waned a little in the 80s after a while with no films, until the first renaissance came in the form of the EU proper, which started out strong with Timothy Zahn's Thrawn Trilogy in the 90s. However, this renaissance was mainly for the super fans.

Then, the prequels came along.

In spite of their, ahem, mixed reception by critics and fans, it's hard to deny that they made an impact, both financially and culturally. And the EU was also booming and arguably at its golden age in the 2000s; with stuff like the New Jedi Order series, the Clone Wars Multimedia project, Knights of the Old Republic media, and more. However, by the 2010s, things had waned a little. TCW began airing, and while it took a while to find its footing, it grew into something that many fans came to love, especially children being introduced to the universe. However, TCW wasn't exactly making money, and many would argue that the EUs quality had waned considerably by the time it was axed.

Then the Disney era began. Personally, I mentally divide it into two periods:

-The "flow" from 2015-2020: while I strongly dislike the sequels, I admit to liking most things in that era. *Solo* and *Rogue One*, were both solid 7/10 films that I still enjoy a lot. *Rebels* wasn't perfect, but I still really liked it overall and it's my current favorite Star Wars show in spite of its issues. I also enjoyed many of the new canon comics taking place after ANH, and a lot of the newer books, especially those by old guard EU writers. *Fallen Order* was also an excellent game, and *The Mandalorian* gave us two strong initial seasons. The final season of TCW was also overall nice, although somewhat disappointing.

-The ebb from 2021-2024: to me, this period was marked by general mediocrity, with only the occasional diamond in the rough. We got no new films, and the mismanagement has been infamous in that regard. The Mandoverse kinda declined with three mediocre entries in *The Book of Boba Fett*, Mando season 3, and *Ashoka*. *Obi-Wan Kenobi* was also.....not good imo. The comics also went down hill with the post-TESB relaunches, and the books became mainly about the High Republic, which I've pretty much completely ignored because I'm not a fan of the writers involved.

Granted, there were a few bright lights. *Andor* was excellent, and probably the best live-action TV to date. *The Bad Batch* was a good kids show and a decent Star Wars story, even though I prefer *Rebels* and late TCW. *Survivor* was also a worthy follow-up to *Fallen Order*. But the period overall caused my interest in Star Wars to wane a lot because of the overall mediocrity.

So I guess I feel that Star Wars is currently in an "ebb" so to speak. Do you think we'll ever get another renaissance? Another "flow" ?

While I respect all opinions, I REALLY wish this phrase would just cease to exist because of how aggravating it is!!!!

If anyone here prefers Legends to Disney or is no longer into this franchise, that’s fine, but said phrase makes it seem like it’s all just rubbish now when others are still enjoying it!! To say Disney’s destroyed it when it’s still running to this day….

There ought to be a law against this statement!!!!!

It isn't a part of the original history.

Like, seriously. I'm not joking. Last year, I started watching Resistance out of slight boredom and curiosity, and it's come to be something that I love.

Much like Rebels (which was the first animated series I watched), it receives a lot of unessacary hate. If people actually gave Resistance a shot, then I think they might actually like it. The characters are great, and the plot progression is pretty good, even though it may seem plotless at times. Also, there's just something about the unique animation style that I like.

My favorite episode is S1 E9 "The Platform Classis", which gives us some backstory for Yeager (my favorite Resistance character), who's kinda mysterious at times.

All of this is my opinion.

Hello there and welcome to Disguises—Round 4!

The rules are simple:

I will write a brief summary of a non-Star Wars film/show/novel, but I'll switch the character names, locations, and other in-universe rules to Star Wars ones. The swaps will be based upon anything from similar personality and traits, similar narrative purpose, general looks or classic storytelling archetypes. (The disguises don't have to make sense timeline-wise).

For example, the summary for Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone would look something like this:

Luke Skywalker receives a message from an astromech droid that invites him to a secret Jedi Academy on the world of Alderaan. There, he meets the Grand Master of the Academy - Yoda, and he becomes his mentor. He meets two friends there, Han and Leia, and they are prove indispensable in protecting Luke from a Sith Lord who seeks to resurface from the dead.

I will give hints if asked for, but beware, there are only 3 hints available in each round!

The user who guesses the summary the material is based upon wins, and gets to host the next round. If nobody steps in, I'll post the new summary.

Here's the new summary:

Han Solo lives on Coruscant where he struggles to find work and behaves quite immaturely, despite the protests of his landlady Leia and the jibes of his much more well-off friend Luke. Eventually, he decides to marry Leia, despite the disapproval of her father, Bail Organa, who believes that she can do much better, and makes it a quest of sorts to voice his disappointment in him and his largely absent father, Drawd Munbrin, whenever possible.

Do you think the Eclipse Star Destroyer would fit to enter the planet? Since it was gargantuan big ship and I am not really sure if it is gonna fit in the planet.

I ask this question because it is for my Star Wars fanfic story.
