lol
so there's an old cloned dark jedi in heir to the empire
thrawn finds him guarding the emperor's fortress mount tantiss on weyland...thrawn goes there to find a cloaking device
he convinces him to help the remnants of the empire in exchange for giving him leia's children
thrawn uses c'baoth's force powers to coordinate attacks between his fleet across star systems
of course the thing with cloned jedi, they are fucking crazy or something
it's all part of a ripping good yarn
mount tantiss was already entered into canon via the bad batch, which is where they took the leftovers from kamino after destroying it
if it's that not c'baoth what the fuck are they doing? :-)
i'd also wager the blonde chick with the red lightsaber is some kind of mara jade stand in
i'd also wager those three very large, fat starships we saw are the dreadnaughts thrawn uses in his attacks on the new republic...they come from a fleet called the katana fleet, which disappeared before the clone wars, and obviously he needs a lot of ships to go fight the NR so he goes and finds them...i think with c'baoth's help
anyway, you can read the entire plot of the novel here...it's the best post-ROTJ story ever written, and the two subsequent novels are amazing too
see this is why people hate kathleen kennedy and the ST so much
there was already an amazing story RIGHT THERE to be told
you have this hamfisted story about the first order just rebuilding like, the entire imperial fleet! outta nowhere! it just happened! shame on you new republic!
dumb story
a FAR more interesting story is an imperial warlord disappearing and then going and finding a lost fleet of 200 fucking ships so he can take on the new republic [Reply]

It sounds like Kennedy has officially pissed off Iger and Disney may sell Lucasfilms [Reply]
honestly it kinda sorta sounds like ashoka is the stand in for luke in this version of the heir to the empire tale
gonna guess we get luke in a few scenes, but they can't do much more than that
unless this is all leading up to an actual heir to the empire movie in a few years and they just go fucking nuts with deepfakes...i mean we're probably getting 10-15 minutes of young indy deepfakes :-) [Reply]

It may not just be KK. Disney is epic fucked.
Iger handpicked Bob Chepek, let him go for 18 months, shitcanned his ass and came back as CEO, which never happens ever, and is currently the CEO with no succession plans.
It's pretty trippy to see Sabine, Hera, and Chopper all live action. I'm assuming Zeb will show up, as will Ezra at some point. Hope it's good. [Reply]
