My views on Star Wars changed forever

I've always been interested in Star Wars but not really a huge fan. After seeing EP III I am a huge fan and plan to get into the extended universe. This movie is by far the most emotionally powerful star wars installment and for me at least any movie in general. I can never see EP IV-VI the same way again. The tragedy is really overwhelming and I have to admit I got a little teary-eyed. So just wanted say all you semi-hardcore to hardcore fans out there you have a new member.

The EU ruins everything.

Welcome friend.

Not usually, but there is some crazy stuff. Like the fact that there are like a million Palpatine clones. 😘

yeah, when that first came out I was like "cool" (I was in middle school I believe). Now....yeah its crap.

Welcome to the Dark Side Hegemon. Sure took you long enough.

Also, I say that most of the EU is pretty good. But don't think of it on terms that it is part of the movies. Only some of it has relevance to the true Star Wars.

Palpatine is DEAD. Lol I hate the whole clone thing.... that's just as bad as the people that just have to have Captain Kirk survive just because he's classic and will come up with any ridiculous story to make it so. Palpatine is DEAD 😠

He's dead? you guys have to fill me in.

Welcome to the fandom.
Start with Timothy Zhan's stuff. Also, try X-Wing books. Avoid the New Jedi Order. It ruined everything.

From what I understand the principle is that Palpatine can never die because every time he is about to die (a la falling down the shaft in ROTJ) he transfers his conciousness to some clone somewhere. doh

wow so I guess he can live forever.

Idk I guess in some EU book somewhere he finally dies for good somehow lol

Yeah... I didn't think it was possible, but it has seriously changed my view of the Old Trilogy. It seems much more dark and sad to me now.

Also the way Vader acts in some of the OT that seemed out of place seems perfect now
