you idiots who think the books will factor in one iota in the direction of hte new films need to go back to your dungeons and dragons games. nobody cares about the books. they make take a few ideas from them but they will not use those books as the basis of scripts/plots. you are fooling yourself if you think it will happen


Yeah, screw books man, who wants to read anymore. So much intelligence on this board, what a waste of time trying to reason with such Godly intelligence.

I could at least understand some of the people who posted reasons not wanting it due to some of them having issues, but it's just funny how quick some of you are to trash on something you've never read.

It's not that we hate books, but let's not pretend the Star Wars books are the masterworks of Michael Chabon or anything. They are pulp novels, competently made but not exactly great literature.

And to follow up on the "Will they use the books?" qustion: No. No, they won't.

Nevertheless, today E! and The Wrap both have the first of what will be untold millions of tiny clues to be pored over, if Lucas has his way, for the next 100 years, beginning with the assertion that Star Wars: Episodes 7 through 9 will all be based on "an original story"—not Timothy Zahn's Thrawn Trilogy, as many have suggested or even demanded, and likely not anything else that's been deemed official canon in the Star Wars Expanded Universe. Ergo, your extensive knowledge of all things Joruus C'Baoth and ysalamiri is useless, except for the purposes of getting people to have sex with you.
