Are the official scripts for the movies canon?

Does anyone have a quote to confirm whether they are or aren't?

Note, specifically the scripts that never made it into the movies themselves if it makes any difference.

More canon than the Novelisations.

Quote?

No, nothing explicitly makes them canon. But they're usually better considered as part of the film instead of another source, IMO. Though it doesn't really matter either way.

How would you reconcile the differences between the film and the script?

obviously the script takes precedence. 🙁

Absolutely not. The scripts were written by that hack George Lucas who thinks Jar Jar is the best Star Wars character.

Zack Snyder is still the biggest hack tho.

Michael Bay is a bigger hack 🙂

No.1 Hack is Filoni.

Except they're not, though. 😕

I was under the impression scripts were stated to be G-Canon by Chee for the old Holocron - could be wrong though. They're non-canon in the current Disney Canon regardless.

They were.

"Jar Jar is the key to all this..."

^ there's proof that George Lucas IS a hack.

Quote for scripts being G-canon?

The database does indeed have a canon field for each individual entry and for sources, though the canon level of the entry would overide the canon level of the source since it factors in other sources associated with that entry. When determining canon levels for individual entries, anything in the films and from George Lucas (including unpublished internal notes that we might receive from him or from the film production department) is considered "G" canon.

Given that Lucas had a hand in the scripts, it applies.

Except for ESB, though it'd be in the Canon anyway.

Arguably, the scripts can fill in the blanks, but do include things changed last second by GL. GL, as usual, is a ham-fisted buffoon who likes to ruin his own work, so this is why Kit Fisto's head isn't on a desk, or why you never see Sids lose his lightsaber in combat.
