Khas 12,158 Posted February 23, 2011 In the Star Wars EU, Ryloth, the Twi'lek homeworld, was stated to be tidally loccked with its star. In TCW, someone mentions that Ryloth has a 30-hour rotation period, and a day/night cycle is shown. You should see how the guys at Wookiepedia reacted to it: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Ryloth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul 11,988 Posted February 23, 2011 And thus why i love Star Trek's Canon laws - "If we say it's canon it's canon otherwise it's not" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyralak 12,068 Posted February 23, 2011 I haven't seen this much dancing since Singin' in the Rain. As more and more of the EU is retconned by GL himself, it's becoming increasingly clear that the EU's clout is waning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyralak 12,068 Posted February 24, 2011 Wow. Surprising lack of participation. Where's Enigma to tell us that the EU pwns all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enigma 521 Posted February 24, 2011 Wow. Surprising lack of participation. Where's Enigma to tell us that the EU pwns all? Because I just got here? If GL decides to overrule the EU then he and LucasFilm\Arts\Whatever can go ahead and do it. The EU is there to fill in the blanks until GL and co. decides to fill it themselves. So what's the problem? Think the EU as canonical fanfiction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ado Mortumee 500 Posted February 24, 2011 First Halo: Reach and now this? Is it too much to ask for these people to keep things consistent? *Urge to kill idiots at Bungie and LFL rising* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t mind retcons if their done right - which Halo: Reach was not, and TCW also destroyed some interesting SW stories. If their planning on retconing decade(s) old canon material I expect it to be replaced with material of at least equal quality, not a giant steaming pile of shit.

Praeothmin 532 Posted March 1, 2011 Problem is, TCW had better character devellopment then all three PT movies, and better stories too. And the PT movies and Special Edition OT movies had already shat over much EU waaayyyy before TCW came along... As for Halo. Seriously. Did you seriously expect the Canon of a setting based on a "Rule of Cool" FPS game to make sense? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
