Since we're still missing some Droids episodes on dvd, I'd like to know some official names from 'The Trigon Unleashed' episode.

  • Threepio says that R2 is hanging like a *Magnetic Poluvian Rat*? Is that correct?
  • Is the forest where the Trigon One is hidden the *Jarl Forest*?

I just can't understand them correctly and I don't have original subtitles on my VHS tapes.

Thanks, Darth NTM!
I understand your point. And thank you for calling my question ''complicated''!:D

So please. If there's a reason, please tell me.

Leland is fairly busy, so answering questions here is really only a secondary concern. Remember, he doesn't have to do this, it's more a favor to fans.

Additionally, your question was rather complicated, so don't expect Leland to get back to you straight away.

Patricia Wrede's episode III novelization says that the Jedi kept the peace for two thousand years prior to the clone wars. Simon Beecroft's Beware the Dark Side says that the Sith remained in hiding for two thousand years prior to episode I. Are both of these books mistakenly placing the Battle of Ruusan at 2000 BBY? It seems weird that two unrelated books would both make the same mistake, so if they're not in error what are they referring to?

Taste, just thought I'd ask--

Are we any closer to seeing the last round of WTS winners posted? I figure since the winning entries have to pass by your desk, you might have a bit of insight. We're dying out here from the anticipation, man!

:p

Tasty.
I know, I know, if a VIP doesn't answer your question it has got a reason. But it doesn't feel good to be ignored.
My English is not the best and it may be a silly question. But it's the first time for me to ask you something and I must confess I'm very disappointed.
So please. If there's a reason, please tell me.

God bless you, Taste :)

I really hope I can attend C:V, whenever it might be. I wish it were closer to the Midwest rather than the money-hole that is LA. :(

I shall continue to dream!

:D What a great answer! I'd like to add my thanks for the work that you do here also. It's much appreciated.

With regard to Swilja Fenn and the female Twi'lek in Union, I thought I'd add another bit of info. At the mo, Swilja's skin color has not been identified. However, there is a Twi'lek "Clan Fenn", which is made up of "white" Twi'leks. I don;t think it's confirmed Swilja is a member of this clan, but it's certainly possible and would be a good indication of her skin color.

so i'm assuming the film only continuity only consists of tpm through rotj, and not the clone wars movie and other possible future sw films?
Correct. I'll be treating the material from The Clone Wars theatrical release as "Television Canon".

Is that true that the Force-users encountered in the service of the Empire in the extension of EAW, Forces of Corrumption, are named Force Adepts ?
A Force adept can be used to describe anyone trained in a Force tradition different than that of the Jedi, so these guys would certainly fall under that category.

Taste, do you enjoy being the Holocron Keeper?
I consider it to be the very definition of "dream job". Anyone who knew me 10 years ago when I was a tester at LucasArts would be able to attest to that. Upon graduating from college, I was asked where I saw myself in 5 years and I gave what I thought was a completely wild and unattainable answer which turned out to be not all too different from what I do now (I've even got the video to prove it!) It is indeed a lifelong passion.

Mister Chee, only you could endure our online debates about the exact number of clone troopers capable of dancing on the head of a pin. And only you could provide a definitive answer.

Thank you for tolerating (and often expanding) our fastidious analysis of this Galaxy. If we didn't have access to some official opinion, we'd still be arguing about the length of Super Star Destroyers! (Excuse me: the length of _Executor_-class Star Dreadnoughts. ;))

Just wanted to take a second and say "thank you" for your endless patience with us and the work you do.

Aye. Thank you, Tasty. :-)

I don't envy your position....

You alone among us. :-p

though I wouldn't mind sneaking a peek at the Holocron for a day :)

Start saving up for Celebration V. We got a peek at a version of it at Celebration IV.

Are Ashla and Ahsoka the same character?
No. The ages don't match up.

Tasty

Should the Lando Calrissian (Mindharp, Flamewind, Starcave) and Han Solo (Stars' End, Revenge, Lost Legacy)Trilogies be considered S-canon per their age, or do they qualify for C-canon?

If this has been asked and answered before, anyone else is free to chime in. I seem to recall from somewhere that Han Solo at Stars' End was C-canon, but I need to verify.

I want to know if Officer Evax of the ISB is somewhere visible in 'TPM'. He isn't one of the ISB Officers that pass the Lift Tube. Is he the ISB Officer who walks way briefly in the beginning of the scene?

Exactly. I meant the male Twi'lek at the ceremony. But anyhow thanks for the answer, Tasty! ;)

I have a new question. Is there any name for one of Farfallas Knights from Jedi vs. Sith? We do only know Lirondo but I would like to hear/read a name for the winged envoy first delivering Farfalla's message, later Hoth's. And maybe there is a name for this species more specific than "Sephy" as you stated earlier.

Thanks for your time!
