Lets talk all things Star Wars

I am a huge fan of the audio books of full volume works but was unaware of this path. Also, was always very impressed with how much respect was shown between new writers and existing works. It was extremely common for a story to pick up where another had ended, or take a new branch but still maintain a running historical timeline within the universe. If the story sucked it was generally accepted as bad copy and was not inserted into the accepted running history. Those who were known to co-op with George got the highest respect and their work considered likely future tense history. Only with the Disney losses did the universe implode. There is so much great work done in this space. I prefer to just stay in it until I have none further to ingest. This is my newest avenue, thank you.

Volume 2 and 3 of the new Legends Epic Collection can be found on Amazon. They have Nomi's story and Ulic Qel-Droma and Exar Kun. The Knights of the Old Republic games serve as sequels to those comics.

oh man... tons of good characters from those stories... Jorus C'Baoth, Ulic Qel-Droma, Jaina and Jacen Solo, Mara Jade, even Thrawn was one of those original characters... Corran Horn, Captain Pellaeon, Exar Kun, Durge.. Asajj.. Quinlan Vos. Admiral Daala! all great characters.
Cool interview, her character would be a neat action figure.
Wow it looks like they had to pull Olivia Newton John out of high school early to film that!
I still like that book! It's in that weird period where they were still trying to figure out what to do with SW in books in the 90s. I just wish they would have kept the Nightsisters the way they are in that book!
Put Tommy Wiseau or Neil Breen in charge of the project and I'm on board.

Ridley Scott...
I think he would be perfect as I well expect this to be a very dark tale. Also cheap, as there would be little location shooting and pretty much 100% would be on a sound stage. All right in his wheelhouse.

And his "family" and "followers" and even possibly his "cloning team". His ship building operation and Coruscant planet of engineers and workers. His massive trade in parts and raw materials for his fleet of starships and how it stayed hidden..... The assassin, owner of the famed killing map blade and why anyone would expect that somehow and for whatever reason, he would know where the cube was and map it on his knife ..... And for anyone tempted to say it was already covered, we are far too aquainted with "from a certain point of view" to believe what we are told the first round.... "your parents were nobody's just common people".

THIS. Flashbacks can be more effective, even. I'm reminded of the very quick Isildur backstory we got in The Fellowship of the Ring when Elrond talks about the weakness of Men:
So perfectly concise, yet still epic. We don't always need a movie or series...sometimes a scene or two is enough to help us put pieces together without completely overturning our own visions of those unseen histories.
YES!! This scene works only as a flashback because It would be so awkward to see it continue as a full scene. Elrond doing the "THIS IS SPARTA" and kicking out but then he disappears and limbos under the kick, matrix style and runs out the door giggling like the monkey king in Forbidden Kingdom.

"orthodox".. Love it! 
In celebration:
As I'm sure we all know here, although most of the exterior Tatooine scenes were shot in Tunisia, they picked up a bunch of shots a year later in Death Valley.
When Threepio and Artoo are arguing about which direction to go, closeups of Artoo switch back and forth between Tunisia (smooth sand) and Death Valley (rippled sand). They are also different R2 props.
