Welcome to the Monday chat corner! This week, it's time to talk about ***Episode II: Attack of the Clones***. Now that I'm thinking about it, it's interesting that there's such a big time skip between Episode I and Episode II. The Original Trilogy has time skips too, but they're very subtle, and the Sequels have nearly none. That makes me wonder... if you were to replot the Prequel Trilogy to eliminate this skip, how would you do this? What would you change, and how? Characters, settings, plot points...? (...I'm aware this sounds like a writing assignment but I swear I'd love to know, this is *crunchy*!)

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week’s topic is Yoda: Dark Rendezvous, a Legends novel published by Del Rey in 2004 in which the tiny green Jedi Master becomes a protagonist.

Has anyone read this one? It clearly belongs beside Shatterpoint, but it doesn’t make it into the same rec lists. Then again, majority can be wrong sometimes…

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week, the topic is “Star Wars: The Clone Wars”, the 2008 animated film.

Fun fact! To this date, this is the only full-length animated movie in any SW continuity. Do you think it will stay that way?

 

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week, the topic is “Dark Disciple”, the unused TCW script turned novel about Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Voss.

You know the drill by now: have you read it? Did you like it? Any other thoughts?

As an alternative discussion topic (I’m aware I’m dragging out increasingly obscure stories as times go on): characters that appear across different stories, and how they (don’t) change. Do you have any feelings about that? R2 is in everything (oh the implications), the Sequels are sure a thing (and so is the entire post-OT EU, of course), and I’ve just learned there’s an EU book where Anakin Skywalker teams up with Nejaa Halcyon and excuse me, that’s a trip.

(This is of course inspired by Quinlan Vos, AKA the SW patron saint of getting a complete personality transplant via adaptation.)

Optional prompt

This week, the topic is “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith”. Bring your tissues, this is the one where (almost) everyone dies!

If you’re not in the mood for sad, please discuss whether this is also the most memed movie in the saga or not. Evidence welcome. (I know I have that “look at all the fucks I don’t give Anakin” gif somewhere…)

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

Optional prompt

This week’s optional topic is “Star Wars: Attack of the Clones”, the second movie of the Prequel trilogy. Romance, mass murder, double-bluffing Sith, and so many clones!

Also, a periodic reminder that if you don’t feel like talking about the prompt, anything else SW-related is welcome here as well, including recs and self-recs.
