Yes. A KOTOR age movie would rule, and I've been wanting a movie about the Mandalorian wars forever. But 7, 8, 9 would be lame if it was about the same three main characters. The legacy of the Force books are pretty good, but I not impressed by the one I read, which was the Joiner King, Dark Nest 1. The story was ok, but the writing was bad. One of the few trilogies I never finished. He used the same analogy almost every chapter, I counted it 13 times. Now I only read books from the 90's, with the exception of the RC books.

Yes.  The Thrawn trilogy was one of the best.  I continue reading stuff from Zahn.  Allegiance is turning out to be really good.

Re: Star wars ep. 7,8,9

Yeah I liked Allegiance. It depends on if you like the Jedi or Sith with liking some of the newer EU. The two Darth Bane books were quite fun, and I liked many of the Clone War novels. Shatterpoint was interesting... didn't make me like Mace WIndu any more than I already didn't,  but was interesting nonetheless.

I found a source for where I heard about ep 7,8, and 9. Lucas wrote a introduction for Splinter of the Minds Eye, copyright 1978. i quote " As the saga of the Skywalkers and the Jedi Knights unfolded, I began to see it as a tale that would take at least 9 films to tell- three trilogies-and i realized, in making my way through the back story and after story, that i was really setting out to write the middle story." This means to me that Lucas had an idea of what happens after RotJ. Almost specific ideas or plots. I want to know if those thoughts became the EU as we know it, as was really started and made "popular" ( for lack of a better word) by the original Zahn books, or was something else different entirely.

Re: Star wars ep. 7,8,9

But Lucas has also said he wants nothing to do with the EU and doesn't follow it.  I'll have to read up on it.

Re: Star wars ep. 7,8,9

Allegiance was great.

I love how

The Mandalorian super commandos originate from the unknown regions of the galaxy.

When we know EXACTLY where they're from.

But Lucas has also said he wants nothing to do with the EU and doesn't follow it.  I'll have to read up on it.

Aayla Secura was considered Expanded Universe in the comics, but after seeing a picture on the cover of the Star Wars Republic comic book, he added her in the movies.  So, sometimes I think they bleed over into each other.
