Anyone here like The Goo Goo Dolls?

It's been so long since I heard anything from them I'm not sure.

You have failed me.

Unfail me, Janus. Unfail me now.

Well, I don't listen to radio. And any radio around here plays either country, rock that was popular before I was born, and Christian hymes/rock.

Goo Goo Dolls were breaking into fame when I was in grade school, bro.

You make yourself sound old, bro. Do you feel old?

Only when I notice the grey in the beard.

Then how do you feel?

One step closer to that discount senior coffee.

So apparently

Spoiler:
Dooku knows all about Order 66.

That makes sense, given he was the one procuring the Clone Army.

I expected that he wouldn't have been clued in on the Clone Wars endgame, though.

But the upcoming Clone Wars arc centered around Order 66 reveals otherwise. Looks great.

Are they pretty much overwriting and aborting the Clone Wars novels? if so, I am sad. While Jedi Trial was horrible, it had some good novels otherwise.

I'm not sure what they plan is. I don't think the Clone Wars novels are being overwritten other than obvious conflicts with the films and the T-canon series. For the most part, the only issue is when the novels take place.

Yeah, that's the kicker - the novels already had established timelines in place. The series just kinda went "Meh, whatever. Conform to US".

Like most things Star Wars, The Clone Wars had a lot of fail involved, but when it was firing on all cylinders, it was really good.

Just a great a storyline. A rare example of deconstruction & subversion; and the bad guy wins.

IDK why, but I've always thought Dooku knew about it. Never really thought of it to be honest. Although, I guess LOE did kind of imply that he didn't know about it, IIRC.

TCW was pretty horrible, though.

LOE also implied he was a racist twit too. Something we don't see elsewhere.

No, that was ROTS, Moose.

Had plenty of horrible episodes, but had some truly stellar ones, too. You've got all sorts of great arcs: Mauldalore, Krell, Ahsoka, Nightsister, Ryloth, Geonosis, Slaves of the Republic, etc.

Their early 90s stuff is legendary.
