Oh yep

Man, I should have known not to google "what was up with that werewolf in the star wars cantina" and expect any fewer than 40 paragraphs.

ok I won't ruin it for anyone but died laughing just now reading about wolfy's romance w/ dice ibegon as fugitives from the empire, w/ ibegon dying at the battle of hoth and wolfy fighting on to honor her memory and then wondering 'wait, which one was dice ibegon?' and finding out that 'o, that was dice ibegon.'

Hot werewolf on lamprey action.

The survivors of the Battle of Endor held a victory party along with the local species, the Ewoks. During it, a ghost-like, semi-transparent, bright Force spirit of Lak Sivrak met Dice Ibegon's. They joined, paw in tail, and walked to meet three other friends [Anakin, Obi-Wan, Yoda] that were waiting for them.[3] Ibegon and Sivrak were together again, their spirits shining in the Force.[1]

The spaces just off-camera in the original trilogy must be crammed with expanded universe plots.

i feel like creators of expanded universe stories were using star wars as an outlet for their intensely weird fantasies

I had Tales from the Cantina or w/e and the bounty hunter short story collection when they came out. There were... some interesting ones.

There is some weird species that looks humanoid but has tendrils that allow them to drink brains. The inner dialogue of that dude was mostly talking about the "soup" of others, meaning... brain juices.

ugh ugh

The tendrils are supposed to grow out of their cheeks. Later, the comics writers and EU writers used them a lot: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Anzat_(species)

She eventually met Lak Sivrak—known to most as only Sivrak—a secretive Shistavanen Wolfman fugitive who had slain a group of Imperial troops. Although he and Ibegon had markedly different body structures, Sivrak found the Lamproid extremely attractive, and Ibegon made efforts to seduce him, buying the Shistavanen a drink and inviting him to sit with her.

DON'T. BE. SCARED. cuz i'm [not] yr body tyyYYYyype

also i love the passport-style photo and matter-of-fact caption a third of the way down the dice ibegon article

I need a script to remove wookieepedia links because I will go down a wormhole/Sarlacc pit and spend all day reading about fuckin Hammerhead's adventures as an intergalactic pimp or whatever.

i miss the pre-rerelease pre-internet days when i thought star trek fans were much bigger nerds than star wars fans

At what age did you have access to Usenet?

not only is it a completely feasible practical effect, you can have your own soccer ball droid at home (in miniature version)

An army of those things just rolling across the floor at you

Picked up the first of the "Shattered Empire" comics series, released last week, which begins concurrent with and right after the end of Return of the Jedi. There is a husband/wife couple who get biz-zay -- thoroughly and completely -- during the Endor celebration, named Shara Bey and Kes Dameron. Oscar Isacc's character in The Force Awakens is named Poe Dameron, so I assume there's some connection.

Meanwhile, standalone movie Rogue One filming in London, TMZ has photos of some kind of crash site w/stormtrooper bodies around it: http://www.tmz.com/2015/09/15/rogue-one-a-star-wars-story-set-photos/

All the new Marvel Star Wars comix are pretty good, including Leia, Lando, Darth Vader and Star Wars

The other day I was in Target, and virtually everything in the store made a Star Wars noise, from the automatic front doors (you use the force to open them, says a sign, har har) to the apple bin, which triggered a nearby wookie growl.

xp the Vader comic is the best of the bunch for me. I want those two psycho droids to get their own series after this.

Max von Sydow “will portray a village elder on the desert planet of Jakku who plays a vital role in the quest to find the missing Luke Skywalker,” reports the Guardian‘s Ben Child. “His name? Lor San Tekka.”

Still from the set

is lor san tekka a reference to something, that seems like a funny way to reveal the name otherwise

Ugh, I really fucking hate the way Disney is playing the marketing of this. I was at a Mets game a few weeks ago and there was so much Star Wars bullshit it was ridiculous, scattered throughout the entire game in between play.

Like they're kind of starting to kill off in advance any goodwill they had earned from me by trying to correct past star wars wrongs.

the youtube ads w dads talking to their toddlers about star wars are the worst

He's a village elder, probably wise and ascetic and whatnot, maybe it's supposed to resemble Lore Sans Tech.

xp yeah those too -- it was almost like by advertising to me this bad approximation of how I feel about star wars it made me just want to feel less that way

"lor san tekka" is an anagram for Okra Anklets, feel like this is a clue.

i'm enthused about SW because my four year old is excited about it, but he's learning about it in a vacuum and the context is preschool conversations. i've heard a lot about how "luth skywalker" and "dark mater" are battling the bad guys.

"who's the bad guy?"

"BATMAN"

this is precisely why disney purchased star wars... new generations to inculcate. (grown) fanboys are not the primary audience.
