Hi!

This is a themed chat corner. The topic is: the magazine Star Wars Gamer., which ran bi-monthly from 2000 to 2002 and covered all kind of SW gaming, both digital and tabletop.

Paper magazines! That's a blast from the past...

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

Topic for this week is Star Wars Insider, the official Star Wars magazine. Did you know it started as The Lucasfilm Fan Club Magazine, with the first issue published in 1987?

What are your thoughts? Have you ever read an issue of it? Subscribed, even? (Wait, is it something you could ever subscribe to?)

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

I’m back on my bullshit trawling through the Wookieepedia timelines, this time the Timeline of canon media, and for this week’s topic I bring you the earliest media piece now included in current canon that isn’t the movies or the Star Wars: The Clone Wars TV show: Star Wars Journeys: The Phantom Menace, an iPhone app that… honestly, I’m not sure. Recaps Episode I, I guess.

Is there anything to talk about? Probably not. Will that make me drop the gimmick of “first ever” and look for something more interesting? Definitely not. Go forth and discuss whatever vaguely topic-related you can find.

Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week, lets look at HoloNet News, the promo website built in 2002 in advance of Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones. It styled itself as an in-universe news site and contained illustrated articles about events leading up to the movie. The site has been closed down in 2013, but most of it is available through Wayback Machine.

Have you seen it before? What do you think? (It’s so very 2000s, isn’t it!)
