No, please get started, you obviously have some serious issues with him.

Look at curtis saxtons' site. Endor is dead as a door nail.

I have. He's wrong.

Don't get me started on Saxton.

Why do I have the feeling you just don't like his conclusions. Frankly he's explained the EU stuff and it doesn't mean Endor is alive. It could be dead and I honest think it is. He's made more of a case.

And the EU also says Ewoks have been wiped out on Endor in Wedges Gamble.

Nah, I just like that smiley

Besides one or two things, I really don't have a problem.

Lucas would not have made Endor with cute Ewoks if they were to die. I don't care if it's scientifically valid or not. Until Lucas says that Endor died, it's not.

why the hell does it matter? its just a bunch of damned ewoks people. live or die.. who cares?

Mmmm Ewok. The other other red meat.


Face it, if Lucas wanted the Ewoks tom live he shouldn't have blown up a big metal moon over there planet. They died, period, end of story.

Explain this:

If the Ewoks were going to die, what was up with the celebration? No one at the party seemed at all concerned that chunks of metal miles wide was going to flatten the planet.

I say the Rebels tractored/vaporized any dangerous pieces of debris before they impacted the planet.

Endor is Dead. In Wedges Gamble it explicitly states that the Ewok are exstinct. Unless your willing to chalk it up to imperial propaganda, the official and canon sources indicate the Endor Holocaust did happen.

There was only one shield by the way, and it encircles both the Deathstar and Endor. And the rebel blew it the hell up, remember.

This can be likely. However what about the turbolasers? Maybe it is possible to intentionally make them dissipate, although there is no reason for them to do so

Watch the ROTJ briefing, the shield protecting the DS does NOT circle both the DS and Endor.

Page 135 of Wedges Gamble at the "Galactic Museum" on Coruscant

"Several displays did provide notation that this planet or that animal had been made extinct on their native worlds by "outlaws and malcontents," and included among such beast were Ewoks-and Imperial taxidermists had taken great pains to make them seem helpless and even more cute then they were in real life. However, despite such propagandistic comments, the displays were impressive and reminded Wedge there was much more to the Empire then he'd consciously acknowledged before."

No, but had they have a reserve shield the Ewoks there could of used it as cover.

That quote makes little sense. The Emprie crumbled after Endor, so obviously Ewoks were alive then. Why would they take time to make an Ewok display, considering there was rioting in the streets. How would they come across such information, considering Endor was under Rebel control?

Someone please provide evidence that Endor has been trashed and rendered lifeless. A quote from a book, movie, or from ol' Lucas himself.

Until then, Saxton's notion is just nfity speculation that's contradicted by EU.

As for stray turbolaser blasts from ROTJ... yes, if a stray turbolaser blast had hit Endor, it would have caused a lot of damage. However, we never saw a stray turbolaser blast hit Endor, so we have no reason to assume that one did.

Except they probably bugged out eventually. The Empire staggered along for a while afterwards, the riots were put down. They'd have time to make some propoganda, especially such a gift like that.

And if they could have destroyed a signifigant fraction of the DS2's mass in a shor time then they would have done that instead. And you can vaporise it but the heavy metal vapor would still reach Endor in quantity enough to kill them.

Same book deals with that. The rioting was put down with automatic E-11 fire. The planet has hundreds of trillions of people, we saw a a matter of thousands rioting.

Sorry, Ewoks still exist

It's possible and I'd like to believe it but there's no much of an argument to it. The best you've got is the Tydyrium passing through a shield and the EU. Neither is overwhelimng evidence in favor of a healthy Endor.

Perhaps the repulsor device he says is neccessary to keep Endor in its close geosynchronous orbit was not located in combination with the shield generator, and was siezed by the Rebels and used to "push" the debris away from Endor? If it could've held the whole DS in orbit....

Of course, but they still exist. It's just the Endor population was wiped out along with the bulk of their species.

It's possible but they'd still have to fight the garrison to a stand still in time to get it clear fast enough and they m ight not have been able to.

That's of course assuming the repulsor wasn't destroyed along with the shields.

EG Aliens and Creatures has a healthy Endor years after ROTJ. Saxton looses.

Negative.

Recolonization is certainly a possibilty. I doubt the Republic would be able not to.
