I want to watch this in IMAX but not IMAX 3d I hope they offer that option

 

[Fozz]

I hope the new film explains whats happened since Episode 6. I feel like I may be completely lost when I see the First Order already established and all the other details in the story.

Unless someone has a link to help me understand everything leading up to this film?

No one knows yet. They may not full explain the 30 years, but I'm sure there'll be a few things brought up.

After the film, that's when the books and such will start fillin in blanks.

That doesn't really apply.

That book is set after Endor. 30 years prior to Force Awakens. A lot will have happened from that book, to Ep 7. A lot.

From what I read is that the first paragraph of the novel explains what happens right after EP VI and it goes from there...

I understand that, but the book isn't going to span 3 decades.

The stuff they just non cannon'd equates to roughly 57 books between Jedi and Ep 7, give or take. One book isn't going to fill all those blanks, nor would a trio of books. They gonna spend some more time writing more books to fill in all those years.

No doubt. I know they'll go back thru it with multiple resources, but that's my point to the guy that was asking for us to fill him in, it's not even done yet. It'll be years before all that time frame is redone.

 

[niketalker23]

They actually are going to explain the 30 year span in the trio of books.

There’s over 30 years of space between Star Wars: Return of the Jedi and Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and that’s enough time for a lot of conflict. And a new trilogy of books to tell us what happened.

What we do know is that after killing Palpatine the Rebellion strikes a huge blow. Everyone celebrates but then the Empire strikes back and regains control because if they weren't in control again, there wouldn't be the "resistance" fighters in TFA.

  So I was right...

Yes

 

[CP1708]

30 years. 3 books.



Welp, first ***** in the Disney armor. That's atrocious.

what happened after episode 6 is already explained in dark empire though

 

[niketalker23]

That's definitely not canon.

Thank god for that too, Palpatine clones :x

didn't know that

i enjoyed reading the comic

 

[mrsneakerman]

One is on there too? I've played these both a million times. 2 wasn't as good, but still awesome. I wish we got a proper next gen sequel instead of the MMORPG.

I bought part one for the ipad so I'm sure they have it for the mac also. I never played either so I'm loving this right now.
