Well worth your 3 minutes of time... how the Endor bunker scene was supposed to play out (I'm glad we didn't get this version, especially Han's "Scum?!" line. Sheesh.)

This is actually the clearest I’ve ever seen this footage.. I wonder if the dl44 guys have seen this? I’m going to go share this now with them

Thanks for sharing

Haha! I actually don’t mind Han’s indignation over a cheesy term like “scum” but I get why all this was cut out.

It almost looked more like a parody especially with that huge pile of stormtrooper bodies clumped together after that brief firefight. The only thing is, with the way this all plays out in the movie, it almost makes the control center look like it’s right inside the exterior doors. It doesn’t actually look much like a bunker complex deep underground, as it is currently.
 
It's hard to say how it would've turned out in a final edited version, but this is so dull, and the repeated jumping out of cover for no reason makes no sense. Plus, the pile of bodies is perhaps a little gruesome. Ultimately, for pacing purposes it works best to get them to the control room asap.
 
Yeah, I think this was a case of concept being much better than execution. A firefight through the bunker could’ve been exciting and neat, especially interspersed with everything else going on, but this just wasn’t that well done.
 
In the mini article, Sandy says: " I went to horse shops and bought horse hair from tails and braided it to look like part of the armor...."
It makes sense that she would have picked up the horse girth belt "honor sash" there as well.
Very very interesting
 
Could be a call to Indiana jones, but others have stated that this skull looks like the skull from
Han Solo and the lost legacy book

I never read this book, anyone know if it was any good?

I didn't notice that! I think they're right. The Brian Daley books aren't the best SW books in the world, but I always thought they had their own charm. I don't mean they're bad, but I don't put them up with my very favorite SW books. That could just be me though. I will say I do still read them every couple years and some SW books I don't touch like anything Kevin J Anderson did...

Oh yeah man there is all kinds of goodies in that room! Mando armor, ancient lightsabers, sith holocrons

Wish there was more shown of the room
 
Halliwax, for what it might be worth, I have always loved Brian Daley's Han Solo Adventures, and still do. They even still fit in nicely with the extant new canon. He's operating out away from the main part of the Empire, in a chunk at the end of one of the spiral arms where Palpatine is letting the business interests that helped him become Emperor act with impunity: The Corporate Sector. Canto Bight, from TLJ, is there -- albeit that was close to forty years on from where the books take place. That last one -- Han Solo and the Lost Legacy -- takes place elsewhere in the Outer Rim: a loose star cluster called the Tion Hegemony, largely ignored by the larger galaxy for at least a couple thousand years. That crystal skull with the blazing eye sockets is the sigil of the ancient warlord Xim the Despot.

And at least we know that golden idol made it to Earth with Artoo and Threepio.

Legends!

The Solo Trilogy was the only novels bar the ADF I've read.. my dad used to be a litho printer so I luckily got to read them before they reached the shelves which back then was a big deal when you were a kid.
 

I can't believe we are getting a new Star Wars RTS!!!!
Meh. Not a fan of RTS games generally. I prefer turn-based strategy, but I've zero hope of that ever happening with Star Wars.

As for the FPS, I'm hoping the fact that Respawn is doing is means they won't be doing more craptastic games with DICE. I'm convinced that studio can't handle management of games and they've been terrible at it since 2001.
