A new idea for EpIII i know youll love

Post by Darth Garden Gnome »

EPISODE III
THE CHISS CONQUEST

You know you love it, GL take it from me, by the sounds of this crowd EPIII should drop the whole anakin/padme deal, and focus totaly on the chiss, and our main man thrawn, and as Mr.Bean noted, especially when he destoys the OutBound Project. Come on we all would just fall head over heels for everybody favorite tactical genious, as he starts at his humble begginings and rises to become the coolest imperial commander, or shoudl i say grand admiral, in all or SW history.

I demand that at least a little bit of thrawn be in Ep III, although i know GL never seemed to be a fan of implementing the EU into his movies, thats ok theres a first time for eveything.

I know i sure would love to see the almighty Chiss invade the republic and crush them under there mighty brain power, and get locked in battle with the newly formed Empire! Sure it would crush the continuity, who cares! Thrawn can do ANYTHING he darn well pleases even GL can stop him!

I'd prefer something to fill in the plot between AotC and ANH. But Thrawn could make an appearance, if it doesn't interfere with the plot.

Just something like this would be a good nod:

General Kenobi: "Near Celedon Beta Sector Admiral Thrawn has destroyed the majority of six enemy battlefleets and driven them from the sector."

Palpatine: "Excellent. Have him promoted."

I don't really want to see anything about Thrawn in Ep3, even though it would give them an excuse to make 7,8, and 9. But I would like to see something about Jorus C'Boath, since he is the one who trained Palpatine.

Unfortunately for many of us who adore then man called Thrawn, GL treats the EU like a red headed stepchild, he contradicts it as he pleases and I sincerely doubt that he even knows a tenth of what's been written of in the EU. Part of me doesn't blame him, if I wrote a sci fi franchise and then decided to farm it out to some people to line by already bulging pockets with more cash...well I would care less what those other authors wrote when it was time for me to write a prequel series and make...YET more money.

There is an interview in which he clearly states that the EU, in his eyes, is nothing more than a parallel universe that he feels free to ignore. So all the speculation about whether we'll see Thrawn or INSERT FAVORITE EU CHARACTER HERE is just that, wild speculation that will probably not come true, PARTICULARLY when GL has also stated that Ep. III will be a very small personal story. I doubt we will even see a big space battle.... :(

Darth Garden Gnome, you are a genius, I love you already. That is a brilliant idea. If only we had you instead of GL!

I don't think anyone would complain if Ep III started off with Jarjar falling to his death... :twisted:

Yes, he just pulled the name Coruscant out of his ass.....

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Thrawn a secret? I mean, nobody seemed to know anything about him, or even that he existed. If he was a hero of the CW, wouldn't the NR have been looking for him.

I do NOT want to see Thrawn in Ep3. There's enough to explain thats actually relevant and important to the storyline, we don't need another thread to it.

I don't want to see Thrawn seen, heard, or mentioned in Episode III, either.

It'd be just too damn disrupting and against the main continuity.

I think the idea's forget about Anakin's transformation into Darth Vader. Just have an entire movie about Thrawn...













Please excuse me. I'll just think about that for a bit more..... Ahhhh.... nice.... Han Solo, eat your heart out.

Well, first picture I saw of him was in TIE fighter, and that was goddamn sexy. I keep that one in mind for reference, rather than paying any attention to those crappy comic book pictures.

oooh... Thrawn...

Unfortunately, Thrawn shall die, m'lady. Don't get involved.

*grumbles* Thrawn. He gave me some damn good jobs, then he went and got killed. Damn.

All the sexy guys seem to be either short, married to a princess or destined to die.

:cry: Such is the tragedy of life. :cry:

Indeed, m'lady. Another reason I'm glad I'm a mech.

But it's not all bad. After all, you had an SSD named after you, did you not? :wink:

Yes, it was quite nice of the emperor to do that, wasn't it? :)
He's such a sweetie-pie when he wants to be.

He really isn't as bad as he's made out to be.

True...some of my best hunts were courtesy of the Emperor...Aariq, Thrina, Dequara, and the Jedi Knight Hasss Bethar, from whom I got this lightsaber. *red blade hisses*

I had a dream that he was my father once, and Mon Mothma was my mother. There was this big custody suit, and Mon Mothma took me away. Thing is, though, I wanted to stay with Palpatine. It was rather sad.

It would explain why she had to leave Coruscant... these custody cases can get pretty nasty, I've heard.

The reasons I'm glad to be a mech just pile up. I have all human strengths...and none of the weaknesses. Although I do wonder what it would be like...to actually feel...*runs hand along wall

Well, it's alright really. I mean, it's obvious that the emperor was fond of me. Why else would he name such a big ship after me?

And it is a pretty name, I think.
