    Admit it. Jar jar alone is better than the entire sequel trilogy

    Yes, and there's also stuff like The Mandalorian, only 5 years after RotJ, and it is fucking amazing. They keep true to what Star Wars is, the development feels natural, they pay homage to other parts of the franchise, they flesh out Mandalorian culture, and the music is great, and best of all... SPOILERS FOR THE MANDALORIAN
    They REVIVED BOBA FETT.

    Yeah, I watch it. Definitely the best show available right now. I just don't know all the expanded universe lingo.

    What I have read of EU I liked but haven't read enough to carry on a convo about it. I like the Dark Sith Lords of the EU. Seems like they're much better characters than what we got with emo Kylo Ren.

    Tarre Vizsla, the character mentioned in Rebels feels like he's from the EU. He's the backstory behind the Darksaber, a Mandalorian Jedi(That's thousands of levels of badass) AND someone who was Mand'alor.

    Agreed. All the ancient sith lords, vitiate, revan, nihilus, bane, all of them were way better than an emo version of Vader

    Momin from the Vader comics, I feel, is a great addition to the cast of ancient Sith.

    To a point. Like I said, the original EU went off the rails it’s last few years and made a bunch of the Sith paper thin villains out of almost every Jedi who didn’t go along with Luke or the Jedi at large and their narrow viewpoints. Revan, Malak, A’Sharad Hett, Kreia, Sion, Ajunta Pall, Vergere, Alema Rar, Jacen... all were these Jedi who saw life slightly differently than the normal Jedi, and more or less got blackballed because the light side was the ONLY way and in a very formulaic pattern. They all fell to the dark side... which invariably meant they tried to wipe out the Jedi and rule the galaxy. None of those characters had any depth except to rule the galaxy. Even deep characters immediately stopped caring about anything other ruling the galaxy... because the Sith and or Dark a Jedi couldn’t be anything but evil.

    The Vergere controversy (which could have brought new depth to the series instead of black and white) was just a mess and is what really caused it to start crumbling.

    I thought he says that in a different song. Can't remember.

    Fred Mercury says he doesn't like like Star Wars in a song. Why? No one knows.

    This is especially funny when he came out like a bamf riding on Vader's shoulders at one of his concerts. I don't remember the song, but now I'm curious of the context of the line.

    What? Never knew about this. That's too funny. No idea what the hell he was doing. Probably a joke about that Star Wars line which he got some shit for.

    Every fucking time I think Freddie Mercury has reached pinnacle coolness, someone busts out shit like this. Magnificent son of a bitch.

    And I’m pretty confident the Star Wars line is in Bicycle Race.

    “Baby Yoda” is obnoxiously overexposed in merch and toys. Just like BB-8 and that reading lamp droid.

    A shame because as he was in the latest episode, he's actually an interesting character.

    So has he finally stopped being a prop? That was my biggest gripe was he’s just kinda a plot device in season one, and even a MacGuffin. I haven’t watched season 2.

    He gets an actual backstory and some development in season 2. A name, even.
