Trailer wasn't that great. Disappointed to see another female lead.

There's really not much evidence of this at all, unless you really reach for it.


Before Disney killed the EU it is widely accepted that the Empire was a male dominated, humanist dictatorship. The only two female Imperial leaders I ever recall are Ysanne Isard who headed up Imperial Intelligence and Admiral Natasi Daala who was in a relationship with Grand Moff Tarkin. It was only after Pellaeon took over leadership of the Imperial Remnants did they move past that. As for the clones, they had finally all be phased out in favor of human conscripts by the time of ANH.

You have to understand that whether the EU is dead or not there are a lot of people like myself that simply don't care and view the movies as the Star Wars universe

Besides I never want to see a movie where having read the books is a requirement for understanding anything in the movie.

I don't know that he specifically hinted at Thrawn, although it is a likely possibility. I believe he said that they had something in mind which would be exciting for long time fans of the EU, and they finally figured out how to do it.

My first guesses were either Thrawn, the canonization of Revan, or Vader v. Maul, although the latter two could have easily been slipped into the Season 2 finale.




I hope it's Thrawn, he was by far my favorite EU character. If it isn't I would love to have at least a canon Captain Gilad Pellaeon. Timothy Zahn managed to create two iconic characters and another famous ship in the Chimaera.

I'm assuming you're a diehard SW fan? Just be happy you have something worth a shite to see on screen.

I don't care if Kennedy has an agenda. I'll take 3,000 female leads as long as I don't have to ever see another Jar Jar.

Fans are speculating that the blind Asian with the stick is Kanan from Rebels now that he was blinded by Maul. BTW, no one is bitching about the lens flare in this trailer but we know they would if it was directed by JJ.

Ogana is one of the early leaders and is killed in New Hope on Alderaan. Bearded guy is a random general that reports to MM.
I'd assumed that the bearded general was who Timothy Zhan turned into Garm Bel Iblis, the Corellian general from the EU. That would have the Rebel Alliance led by a triumvirate of Bail Organa, leader of Alderaan, financial backer, and senator, Mon Mothma, a leader and senator from... some important Core system (don't know if it was ever named or specified), and Garm Bel Iblis, a famous Corellian general to help plan the strategy of the Rebellion.

But frick the good stories and characters in the EU, because money.

This. I thought the trailer was decent, but I don't give a shite if it's a male or female lead as long as the movie is good.

I just don't see how that could be Grand Moff Tarkin in the trailer. The ages just wouldn't add up. If you recall at the end of Revenge of the Sith, Grand Moff walks away from the Emperor on the bridge as Vader approaches. Even then that CGI of Tarkin appears just as he was in A New Hope.
