I've got the latest Empire issue with the massive Star Wars feature, gonna dump it here.

You can see it on the map. Lucas changed it's name to "Moraband" before he sold the franchise.

I see it, but moraband was always int he southern part of the Galaxy, not up north
At least that's what the KOTOR galaxy map says
>>63069479
SWTOR changed that I think, to where its up in the North East part of the galaxy.
>>63068462

So that was Snoke and not Kylo Ren?

>to create a villain that is toe-to-toe with Darth Vader you create a fanboy knockoff
Sure, JJ.
Something that may be important for TFA:
Ilum and Starkiller Base's Origin Point on old and new canon star maps are basically the same place. Ilum in the old canon had caves full of Kyber Crystals, which power laser weapons in the new canon (Death Star, lightsabers). What if the FO turned Ilum into Starkiller Base with the mines of crystals as it's weapon?
>>63069551
Would make sense.
>>63069450
fuck pegg
>>63069551
It'll probably be true in the novelization or something, but not explicitly mentioned in the movie
Just a line about how
>Starkiller Base is on the planet where the crystals used to power the Death Star were mined
Without actually saying "Illum"
>>63069431
I'm really excited for his performance as main antagonist. I hope they don't kill him off.
>>63069599
>the planet where the crystals used to power the Death Star were mined
Most of that happened on Lothal actually, which is the overarching, behind the curtain plot of the first season.
>>63068409
Of course Anthony Daniels had nothing better to do.
>>63069512
Yes.
>>63069158
yeah thats shit graphic design
>>63069627
I imagine that secondary canon won't matter much to the movies
>>63069158
STAR THE FORCE AWAKENS WARS
>>63069170
jaster mereel series confirmed?
>>63069698
We won't know for sure until TFA hits, but the Story Group was set up to basically make every different work related in some way, which definitely extends to the movies. The JtTFA books that came out in September were marketed as having clues to TFA, so they do kind of matter.
Plus, a book series spin-off from Rebels basically showed the origins of the First Order.
>>63069797
I wouldn't put too much faith in the canon staying rigid.
They've already broken it just this week.
Rebels has the Interdictor class ship introduced as new technology, but the canon novel Tarkin had the Interdictor in use 10 years prior.
Despite the "Story Group", there's a hierarchy of canonicity.
Movies always number 1.
Then TV.
Then books.
>>63069856
>Despite the "Story Group", there's a hierarchy of canonicity.
Actually there isn't. I love it when /tv/ pretends to know anything about Star Wars. Everything is on equal ground.
>>63069715
STAR THE FORCE AWAKENS SPECIAL EDITION WARS
>>63069910
What about the example I just gave?
>>63069856
Tarkin was it's first real field test, yes, but it wasn't widely used or tested after that. It still had to be readjusted to work and by Rebels is when the next test could be.
>>63068347
>I love the experience of wanting to know more
Lindelof syndrome, expect a lot of unanswered shit.
>>63069856
>>63069957
The main strategy of fitting things into canon to work between movies, books and shows seems to be "here's a prototype that may work, but it won't be used until years later when the kinks are worked out."
See: Interdictors, B-Wings
>>63068309
NWO

O
conspiracyonists retards in shambles
>>63069939
That doesn't disprove anything I said.
In Tarkin, the Mobilizer was a disaster. In Rebels they're still testing it.
Note, that the REBELS refer to it as a new weapon, not the Imperials.
>>63070001
there's a fine line between what Lindelof does and having artful mystery. Alien is an example of the latter, Prometheus of the former.

>>63068280
>that stencil font
what the fuck? Somebody ok'd that?
>>63070272
If this map is canon, then it is the first mentioning of the Rakata in the new canon.
>>63068611
Rakata Prime?
R-revan confirmed canon?
Or maybe - some part of this trilogy story really a remake of KotOR? Rey getting dark sided like Bastila? Kylo Ren inspired by Revan? Or Maybe Kylo being a Malak?
Or maybe I just want too much?
>>63068611
>RAKATE PRIME
>ONDERON
>MANDALORE
GET FUCKING HYPE
>>63070130
mandalore and onderon were in Clone Wars show, so they have been canon
Unless KOTOR is canon again, not sure how Rakata will be recanonized
>>63070423
Plus Mandalore is hardly anything like the old EU version.
>>63068677
>>63070423
Boba and Jano are mandalorian so automatically its Canon
Plus there's a mandalorian in episode 7
>>63070474
I totally forgot that von Sydow was in the movie.
He hasn't been in any of the trailers.
>>63070347
Maybe you're just a faggot?
>>63070423
Rakata Prime is literally exclusive for Revan storyline (there is some stuff about it in some of Bane's stuff, but all in reliance to Revan).GET HYPE
>>63070555
Revan doesn't exist in the new canon, so the planet can be used for literally anything else, not stuck to him.
>>63070529
Maybe, but I would really love this to happen.
Or maybe not, since they would ruin it.
I don't know man...
>>63070555
I forgot about my prediction that KOTOR or Revan stuff will be mentioned in TFA, Kylo might mention Rakata or possibly even go there briefly due to the Revan connection
>>63070612
Starkiller Base is probably a Rakata weapon.
>>63070576
We don't really know if he doesn't exist, he was supposed to pop up in some of the Clone Warsstuff alongside Darth Bane. I doubt that they are going to explore this period in movies, so they may as well just let 'us' have it.
>>63070642
Snoke is studying history and mining it for tech to dark side it up
>>63070612
Maybe he'll go after some other sith lords artifacts and shite (or maybe it's a Snoke's plan to get those).
I must say, tht aside from shitposting, I'm really interested in a approach the ST is going to choose. I realize all of this is probably wishful thinking, but still.

>>63068965
Can't believe they actually acknowledged the prequels.
>>63072600
If I remember correctly, Abrams approach is to not outright contradict them, but to mostly ignore them when possible.
Is the 3D Clone Wars series worth watching? Is it made for babies? Rebels sure looks like it was.
>>63072764
Grit your teeth and get through the first two seasons. Season 3 is when it starts getting really good, and season 4 onward is fantastic.
>>63072627
They kinda have to though. With that 50 year gap, pretty much nothing from the prequels can directly transfer over to the sequels.
>>63072822
And just in terms of film-making, they're returning to the form of the originals. I am worried that Abrams will use the OT as a crutch, but from reading the interviews it sounds like he knows what he's doing.

>>63070130
what is happening
literally nothing to get excited over
>>63069593
I know. I'm sick of his smug cunt face.
>>63073604
Rakata Prime is the big one. It shows that they might acknowledge KOTOR as canon, or at least certain parts of it.
>>63073652
All I care about is if he can pull the role off. I'd rather have a good black actor than a less talented white one.
>>63073651
Well there are Selkath in the cartoons, so manaan is canon.
>>63073712
I hate that they keep calling Korriban Morriband. Just use the original name.
Does anyone have any real expectations that this trilogy will not be shit?
>>63073800
I'm holding out hope.
All this fucking talk is making me want to play TSL again.
>>63073861
I played it over the Summer. Loved KOTOR 1, but greatly enjoyed the deconstruction of the Star Wars mythos in TSL.
This entire trilogy is just a ripoff of plotlines the now-non-canon Star Wars storylines already did better.
>>63073947
With the EU now struck away, they're free to borrow the best elements without being beholden to the shitty ones.
>>63068280

Goddamn he's gonna fucking kill it
>>63074065
I've never seen him act, but he sounds really dedicated to the craft.
>>63073915
I played them in reverse order (because fuck knows why) and after beating TSL 2 or 3 times I couldn't do more than a couple of hours of 1.
My conflict right now is whether I should ignore the cringe as best I can and power through 1 just to say I did it or subject myself to the drudge that is the asteroid and Telos that're standing in the way of the goodies in 2.
>>63068280

If you are refering to the Sith Empires in KOTOR and TOR they ceased to exist some 30k years beforehand. The Sith Order was thought to have been destroyed some 1000 years before the OT, places like Korriban were just ruins
>>63075367
Do you live in Miami? I'm in DeLand, have always meant to go down to Miami to pick up cigars.
For all you Star Wars fans, you really need to go see Creed while you're waiting for ep VII to come out.
I guarantee you, you'll love the movie. Probably the best sports movie of the decade with simply amazing boxing action.
