What are the names of the 200 Jedi that fought in the Genosis Arena?
this is an extra question in case you decide not to answer the first one:
Approximately ,how many Jedi existed at the time of the separatist movement? I've read that there were nearly 200 jedi all over the universe but i can't believe this, its simply a very little number!!!!!!!!!!

who said it was 200?

novel, finti

you can't name the 200, from the survivors we cant' even name two or three, and I'm still not agreeing with one... I think

so it's impossible for the 200 names, even to name the 10 000 knights in the gal!

novel is EU

official novel by Del Rey (in English that is) is CANON,
Literature based on the SW universe that isn't directly from the movies is EU

i believe windu said he had 1000 jedis aprox...and he could only use 200 for emergency

everything that is not in the movies are EU including the novelisations of the films

talking about AOTC-movie?

any SW movie, the only thing canon is the movies, nothing else

Again, I have to point out, that just because it is not canon (and officially it is semi-canon), that does NOT mean it is EU. Non-canon and EU are not the same thing.

There are no fully canonical numbers available but most sources quote 10000 altogether, as yerssot says, and 200 at Geonosis

Most Jedi at the arena, fjord, are nothing more than background characters with no names.

Sure some Fans may make a fanfic about a certain Jedi in the arena they thought looked intriguing, but it will not be real.

So in conclusion:

No one can answer that, not even GL himself.

Films canon, the rest not or let me put it simple.
There are those who only watch the film and they get all the info needed through the films. The novels are kind of a not need to know basis.

two times right in one reply

And I don't even think you can reach 200 when counting the jedi

Well, regardless of personal opinion, it is actually for Lucasfilm to say what is canon or not.

that or you say that only GL is canon...

Anything GL puts out is canon unless he says it isn't. He can decide anything he likes is canon. He delegates that to the Continuity and Production department.

well actually SW is films, the novelisations are just extra, to supply the income of the whole SW thing.
If there are info in the novelisations that are`nt in the movies. Then watching the films would be a waste of time, you could read the books and get it all there.

Again, regardless of the logic behind it, it is still up to GL to say what is canon or not. If he wants to say the EU is canoin he can if he wants. As it is, the official position still puts the novels, screenplays and radio dramas into some form of canon and no personal opinion will change that.

btw, has anyone ever heared the radio drama of ANH?

Nope....

I think there are a few thousand jedi at the time of AOTC, but I have no evidence to support my guess...mostly because I'm too lazy to do the research.

Ush agrees with me, and you still don't believe me Julie? I'm ...well...not impressed

I've heard it. It could have done with Harrison Ford.

Harrison Ford? come again? can't follow you now

He wasn't in it.

ofcourse, but I can't see the logic of your post

Err... if you understand that Harrison Ford wasn't in it, then I am not sure what you mean.

nevermind, guess I'm too stupid to understand it
