Why can't Star Wars writers just... copy the Expanded Universe?>A prequel about Vader seething at Kenobi, imagining that Padmé still lives and hunts Jedi.>A prequel about the Old Republic.>A prequel about the end of the Sith era and the beginning of the Rule of Two.>A sequel about the Yuuzhan Vong.
>>220495146>disney makes shitanon:>why can't disney copy more shit?
>>220495146>Why can't Star Wars writers just... copy the Expanded Universe?Because directors think they know better...and they probably do, but nostalgia and fanservice goes a long way.At the same time, you couldn't pay a Hollywood pedo enough to read a book.
>>220495146because there isn't anything in the EU that women would like. When will fucking nerds get it through your heads that 95 fucking percent of the money streaming companies get is from women and nobody gives a shit if a show would appeal to you, a man. The only reason star wars shows are made is for women. Yes that's right star wars, your thing. It's still going because they know a few women might pay for it because they chose the 'nerd' persona. They're not going to sit though luke fighting a lizard however. Now who's to blame for this? YOU. Because you fucking torrent and don't pay
If I were in charge of the sequel trilogy it would have adapted the Yuuzhan Vong war with Darth Talon being the sexy villain of Ep 7 that seduces Han's son then they both get a redemption arc over 8 and 9.

>>220495234Still trying to will the modern audience into existence I see
>>220495146>Why can't Star Wars writers just... copy the Expanded Universe?Because it's all retarded garbage fanfiction that does not feel like Star Wars stylistically or tonally and contradicts it on many levels, and most of the time it won't work in the medium of film.
>>220495302You're confused, youre talking about the sequels
>>220495333No, I'm talking about this garbage. Fuck off with your Temu Warhammer 40k fanfiction. Disney sequels being bad doesn't suddenly make this repugnant garbage good.
>>220495376There's more to the EU than that cherry picked nonsense
>>220495146>Vader haunted by Padme while taking his seethe out on Jedi survivorsCould be kino
>>220495234>95 fucking percent of the money streaming companies get is from womenStreaming isn't profitable to begin with, dipshit. And women pay for makeup and dresses, not space fantasy fiction. They're not interested unless there's romance, a handsome fellow and a girl they can self insert into to pretend they're fucking the handsome fellow.
>>220495302>that does not feel like Star Wars stylistically or tonally and contradicts it on many levelsThat's the Zahn books which are Star Trek with a Star Wars skin. Stories like Dark Empire and TFU are closer to what Star Wars is, and the poindexters who love the former despise them.
>>220495245more emotive in 7 seconds than ridley was in 2 hours
>>220495146>they hate the old material>they hate the old writers>they think the old stuff is problematic>they think they can do it much better
Would they not have to pay 8 different writers for using the Vong characters?The elephant in the room is they are outer-dimensional. Imagine if the Predator went through a wormhole to hunt on Kashyyk. NJO is comic book tier.BUT the characters in it are better developed than what we got.The problem;In original trilogy we had: Luke Leia Han Obi Wan Vader & DroidsIn sequels we had: Luke Leia Han Rey Finn Kylo Rey Poe Snoke Rose Holdo Lando, Phasma, Hux, Maz, Janna, Palpatine, & DroidsTheres like 3x characters they tried to give a huge connection to the plot. It doesn’t work. We don’t need any more characters from the EU jammed into a marvel style story. Disney still doesn’t understand. The fans don’t understand. The EU would have been better; BUT the people in charge or who they hired have no clue about the EU.
Isnt it funny that Obi Wan is basically a white guy in exile hanging out in bars in Morocco?
>>220495146Same reason mouthbreathing slobs think that garbage is worth anything.
>>220497347Dockside bars?
>>220497330you dont need to copy the vong tho. Thats just one storyline of a thousand others they can pick and choose from
>>220495146A miniseries about Revan, Malak, and the Exile leading the fight against the mandalorians would be super cool
>>220497382He meets strange young boys and takes them back to his air conditioned bungalow
>>220495146They already are with some specific things like thrawn and kotor but really to canonize it in any major way would be a huge loss of face after they so publicly said never ever so doubt it will ever happen.
Funny how Vader became the mainstream face of Star Wars, while Luke is only liked by dorks.
Just make movies about the SWTOR story lines.
>>220495146Because the EU is what the old toxic chud fans like, they're making Star Wars for the modern audiences.
>>220497850Since the disney buyout Vader has been shoved in almost every piece of star wars media and they have avoided using Luke almost entirely.
>>220497873>light side sith warrior trolling jedi with his slave wife for 2.5 hours Disney would never be so based
>>220495146They did. The Emperor comes back as a clone? "Dark Empire". The empire has ridiculous new superweapons? Dark Empire and the "New Jedi Academy Trilogy". Unlikable mary sue students that are more powerful than Luke? "New Jedi Academy" again. They just copied some of the worst parts of the EU.
because disney is gay
>>220497850Go to bed, Kathleen.Luke is a fucking hero and disney's treatment of him is half the reason everyone has abandoned the franchise.
>>220497899>Since the disney buyout Vader has been shoved in almost every piece of star wars media and they have avoided using Luke almost entirely.And people love it everytime.>>220497984Luke's lame, bro. I get you're a boring nerd so you relate to Luke, but most people don't like that shit. People either want cool, cute or sexy. And Luke's none of those. Boyscouts work when said boyscout's a charismatic looker. Or a stoic looker.
>>220498045>let me, an out of touch boomer who hates the original trilogy, tell you what people do and don't like about star wars>let's ignore that the value of the franchise has plummeted since disney tried to 'fix' it, and they've now gone full 180 in an appeal to try and regain fans
>>220498045Boyscouts don't work you raped bitch. Those raped faggots make Jedi look reasonable.
>>220498097>>220498097>an out of touch boomer who hates the original trilogyBro what? Boomers love the OT and irrationally hate the PT. All non-dorks love Vader.>let's ignore that the value of the franchise has plummeted since disney tried to 'fix' it,Because they made all their protags women and had that force is female bullshit. Bringing Maul back and spamming Vader’s a good course correct.
>>220498176Like I said, they work when they're lookers and aren't dweeby autists. Gotta have the girls swoon for them and dudes want to be them. Dweeby fucks always get clowned on.
>>220495146Or they could have done things such as:>Using the world between worlds to show a world where Vader beat Obi Wan and killed Palps, leading to him being sith emperor with full power>Sequels where a bitter cybernetic Windu was the main villain and Luke/Leia's kids had to fight him>Anything involving Mara Jade>Prequel series involving Exar Kun during his prime>Anything involving RevanThey had plenty of opportunities to make money, they just chose to make millennial s.0.y pablum instead.
>>220498375Lesbianism is HOT
>>220495146Disney would have to pay royalties to the authors that developed the expanded universe, please understand.
>>220495376Complaining about the Eu being temu Warhammer is crazy when Warhammer is already temu core and literally has nothing original. Like yeah George copied whole scenes and shots in Star Wars but it was all in pursuit of his vision. Warhammer is just slop.
>>220495146>Why can't Star Wars writers just... copy the Expanded Universe?They did. The sequel trilogy is a mishmash of Jedi Prince, Dark Empire and Legacy of the Force. The Maul show is Dark Times but worse. TCW is Dark Horse' Republic/Clone Wars but worse.
>>220498823>literally has nothing originalWho gives a shit?
>>220495146I'm pretty sure when Disney took over someone asked Kathleen Kennedy>What should we do with the already existing material?>Throw them out. We will be making our own stories!But she probably thought it was like 1-2 books, or maybe a comic. I'm sure she had no idea how much material was there. For Kathleen Kennedy Star Wars was just the 6 movies and they were making 3 more!
>>220498859>The Maul show is Dark Times but worse.Can you nerds get some fucking taste? Listening to you losers just makes lame shit no one wants to watch.
>>220495146>MoneyDisney does not share it's ip rights.......
>>220499307Sorry but new bad old good no exceptions
>>220495146>hamburgers?
>>220495245there
Reminder that per Lucas, there were no Jedi/Sith Wars. The Sith were founded 2000 years before the movies by Jedi Exiles, and took over the galaxy with like 150 Sith each ruling their own piece of the galaxy. But because they're Sith, they wanted more. So they killed each other to get more galaxy and power for themselves until their numbers were so feeble that the Jedi could take them all out. All but one.
>>220495245Looks like a better version of Emilia Clarke
>>220499513No one cares.
>>220499513Lucas has more bad ideas than good ones. Who cares
>>220499540How is it a bad idea? The Sith are greedy and power hungry. No shit they'd become their own undoing. Don't let nostalgia cloud your judgement. There's nothing good about being a fanboy.
>>220495146>>A sequel about the Yuuzhan Vong.yeah fuck right off
>>220495146>>A sequel about the Yuuzhan Vong.kys
>>220499582Why ask me what's bad about it only to assume incorrectly and insult me in the very same post? Were you even interested in my answer?
>>220495224/thread
>>220498375A while ago I wondered why they didn't revive Windu yet. But upon rewatching RotS, there is absolutely no way he could have survived, with force or not, zero, the man is dead. And hasn't gone full retard yet to recton that, not for the lack of trying. https://youtu.be/H1te1YMTH1Q
Star Wars?
>>220500257Pascal is just a big gay closeted man. He probably pitched this bit and insisted on it
>>220500416His closet is wide open.
>>220499820>Were you even interested in my answer?Not really.
>>220500257Without the caption, I never would’ve guessed that was a man on the left, much less Pascal. Actually, they both look like aging lesbians.
>>220495146if you actually read the fucking books, you'd realise that they did lift plot-points and ideas from the EU, they just implemented them terribly due to the films having soooo much editing done, that it made a coherent narrative impossible to deliver.Not to mention, it doesn't matter how good your core story is, if the directors are dogshit, the actors are worthless checkboxes with no skills, and the script and dialogue is trash. If you did lord of the rings with a bunch of 8 year old theatre kids, it doesnt matter how much money you put into it, it'll still suck compared to the OG.
>>220495234>just give the goyslop producers who hate me and my beliefs your money, they'll come around!fuck you kike-slave. I reluctantly pay for Deezer because its too convenient not to use it, that is the only streaming app i'll ever give my money to.
>>220495146It's too late. Disney and George/Filoni already transformed Star Wars into an explicitly unserious kid product. Which is very different from the vibe established in the OT and the EU material, the EU material leaning more older/serious since it was catering to fans of the OT who at that point had aged 10-15+ years since seeing the movies.
>>220495146Because they hate you. And after the company has been filled by all of the same kind of people it wont be able to self correct.
