The only good EU thing was Legacy. If only because they were so far ahead on the timeline they could actually do creative poo poo without having to shoehorn in other stupid poo poo.

I watched these solid family funtime movie classics and now I'm anxious to know what some minor characters do in their leisure time.

I heard they made a backstory for Porkin (the fat nerd who died like a bitch in A new hope) where he was actually a badass.

Do the prequel movies count as the EU? Because I count them and EP: V as noncanonical fanfiction. Especially Midichlorians. As far as I'm concerned, Star Wars is a duology and I'm raising my children up to believe this.

It used its force powers to blow its own motivator.

Dely Apple posted:Did they ever write a book about the big blue elephant dude at Jabba's place https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxgnSbs1DKs Also, the worst thing in the EU is the book series that Kevin J. Anderson wrote where he made a ship into a Mary Sue character. quote:The Sun Crusher was a nearly indestructible craft that was no larger than a starfighter, but was capable of unleashing destruction on a magnitude that dwarfed even the Death Star's capabilities. Unlike the Death Star, which destroyed individual planets, the Sun Crusher could destroy an entire star system by causing its target star to turn into a supernova. The key to its near invincibility was layered Quantum-crystalline armor, a material so strong that it could perfectly repel even turbolaser shots. Han Solo once was able to ram the Sun Crusher straight through the bridge of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Hydra without taking any damage, and during the skirmish in the Maw, it even survived a glancing blow from the Death Star Prototype's Superlaser, which likely would have destroyed any other ship it touched. The Sun Crusher took some engine damage from the blast, as this was its only weakness, but was able to continue to fight. The Sun Crusher was also equipped with a hyperdrive and was designed to slip unnoticed into a system, fire its weaponry, and then escape before its presence was detected. It's like the poo poo you'd come up with when you were 10, talking to your friends about YOUR cool ideas for Star Wars. "No, see, it's this ship that is, like, completely indestructible. It destroys other ships by just ramming them and flying through them. Also, it can blow up stars." DrBouvenstein fucked around with this message at 15:33 on Nov 24, 2014 |

The Thrawn books are still decent even if they have stupid elements and the first half dozen x wing books are good pulp adventures. The rest are pretty bogus.

I always liked Kyle Katarn and the jedi knight series  . The only EU book I ever read was the one about the different bounty hunters like IG-88 and of course Boba. I didn't mind it as a kid.Isn't there supposed to be some EU guy that's an alien who exudes sex hormones that are so strong it's like poison or burns people or some stupid poo poo like that?

Clone Wars the series is on Netflix and it's not bad. It's better than the prequel trilogy for sure, and considering Star Wars is already meant for children it works. It even manages to capture that "if this is meant for children why is there so much brutal violence" edge.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Splinter of the Mind's Eye. Luke and Leia go to a swamp planet looking for a ruby that amplifies force powers to infinity. They bang in the cockpit of a Y-Wing. Then they kill Darth Vader by pushing him down a well. It's actually worse than it sounds.

CannonFodder posted:I never read these books and I still know that Chewbacca was killed by dropping a moon on him. They killed him because everyone was tired of trying to figure out how you write for a character that just says "Grrrrr" all the time. The last few books he was in, he was always on some other planet just babysitting the Solo kids. The EU was onto something with Anakin Solo being set up to be the next Darth but then Lucas got involved and wouldn't let them so they then made Jacen turn and undid 10+ years of character development.
