jjYesterday Leland Chee Tweeted that the Story Group at Lucasfilm has full control on what is and isn’t canon in the Star Wars Universe.  That in and of itself has spawned a plethora of stories across the interwebs today.  But I’m going to take you farther down the rabbit hole, I’m going to show how what Leland Tweeted yesterday opens up a whole new can of worms.

The Inquisitorius

October 25, 2013 at 7:17 am | Posted in Episode VII, Movies, Speculation, Star Wars, Star Wars Rebels, Television | Leave a comment

The big news out of the Star Wars Rebels New York Comic Con 2013 panel was the reveal of the bad guy for the show: the Inquisitor. But what is an Inquisitor? If you’ve watched the films and even Star Wars: The Clone Wars, such beings are never mentioned. Up until this point, Inquisitors have only showed up in the Star Wars Expanded Universe such as the books and the video games. So just who are these Inquisitors?

Well, their origins go back about 26 years. The first Inquisitor appears to have been invented for The Star Wars Sourcebook published back in 1987 for West End Games. Written by Bill Slavicsek and Curtis Smith, The Star Wars Sourcebook was a reference guide for players of the Star Wars Roleplaying Game (think Dungeons & Dragons). This book is renown for quite a few EU inventions, including the names of some of the most recognizable alien species of the films. If you turned to page 55, however, you’d find an odd throwaway line that mentions a Grand Inquisitor. Continue Reading The Inquisitorius…

Episode VII Love Story

According to Contactmusic.com, J.J. Abrams revealed that Star Wars Episode VII will have a central love story.

Of course there are a ton of possibilities. We could see Jaina Solo hooking up with someone new. There could be two completely new characters involved in some Jedi love story. Or, we could see what we’ve all been waiting for, the Leia and Chewbacca forbidden romance. Search your feelings, you know it be true.

Thanks go out to Jedi News for spotting this intriguing piece of news.

A Closer Look at ‘Kenobi’

This week we’re taking a closer look at Kenobi, the recently announced Star Wars novel from John Jackson Miller. John has teased readers with the following…

“Kenobi is a sweeping story that’s part epic western, part high-stakes drama, part romance — but it’s all Star Wars, taking place in the early days of Obi-Wan’s exile to Tatooine. I shouldn’t expand too much beyond what Random House said on its panel and Facebook page, but I can say this. I’ve been working on this concept for years — I’ll talk more about that process later on — and the basics are pretty simple. The greatest hero in the galaxy faces his toughest challenge yet: He must stop being Obi-Wan — and become Crazy Old Ben.” -John Jackson Miller

Epic western. High-stakes drama. Romance. What can it all mean? Well, we’re prepared to delve into the depths of possibility. Continue Reading A Closer Look at ‘Kenobi’…
