    They really want a giant galaxy where only 12 people ever did anything important so they can jack off to some published fanfic about Bonti’iib Fucko’s adventures in the Nood Thorwok piss mines cause he was some alien in thar bar from episode 2.

        WHY DIDNT DISNEY MAKE THE THRAWN TRILOGY?! EVERYONE LOVES THE THRAWN TRILOGY! Like, I barely know who that guy is and I’m a nerd who engages in mocking voyeurism of Star Wars fans for fun

          In a way I’m glad they didn’t, because then I don’t feel bad about not caring about star wars anymore and “Oops, how did fascism get in our republic again?” is a good bit.

            I haven’t watched Rebels or Asohka, but I think he’s a main character in those. Dave Filoni’s been picking his way through the EU crates, but the worst Star Wars fans just want “Thrown: the Movie” or “KotOR: the Movie.”

              It is so disrespectful to the craft of those books and that game that people just want them made into movies. Like broadstrokes can be worked into a show like Ahsoka and I am enjoying that, but I have no interest in just adapting the novels or game into film. An RPG is written to be an RPG, a novel written by a professional and accomplished genre author is meant for prose. Sure Thrawn had comics, but those are easier to directly translate and are more to give visuals than to be good sequential art

                I want a Monkey’s Paw where they literally just use KotOR’s script as a screenplay and we have this incomprehensible mess where dialogue trees are just run through straight. It’s what the dweebs deserve.
