I find the constant similarities and different in canon and legends fascinating. The way that some are so similar and some different is kind of fascinating.
You said the same thing twice
Not really. I'd rather have 1 thing be true in all cases for everything.
The outfit looks awesome in Battlefront 2
So trueeee
We need more stories between episodes 1 and 2! There are 10 years to explore!
I still prefer the Legends version because I have respect for the people that worked hard on Shadows of the Empire to make make it fit in that timeline.
The mystery of Boushh's pronunciation lives on!
I always pronounce it as Bush...when I heard it long ago when JEDI was released...
@@mylifepart2būsh is the correct way to pronounce it
I'd always pronounced it as "Boh-sh" with the same vowel sound as "toast."
I thought she got the detonator idea from Han, possibly from a story he told her from those days, as seen in Solo.
Raptorus77 well that could be true. Its not like detonators are only used for that so she actually went and did it with what she had in her possesion
The solo thing was more of an homage than an incanon tip to be used later
Could be a bit of both. She sees Boushh about to do it and later thinks "wait didn't Han tell me about something like this? I should try that. Maybe people just do that."
I like to think that the differences in Legends and Canon is all caused by some sort of butterfly effect in the era before the Republic.
Some Rakatan probably stepped on an insect, fast forward 30,000 years, and the Solo siblings are replaced with Ben Solo and the First Order, Mara Jade and Ben Skywalker don't exist, and Chewie survives past 25 ABY.
Pablo Hidalgo: Right that down! Right that down!
I wonder if Forces of Destiny would make a video on how Leia got the slave costume on Jabba's Palace
love that!
Some Legends stories are bad, but the majority are good. This was in my opinion one of the good ones.
Crystal Star and Jedi Prince for example but there was more good stories.
Ruins of Dantooine and Dark Nest didn't do too well either...
Chris sonofPear Anything post-NJO ain't great.
Though Shadows Of The Empire may be retconned away, I bet Dash Rendar will turn up in a canon appearance some day.
GuanoLad i doubt it hes a cheap Han ripoff
Nah hes too macho and white for Disney.
Stig Lapoint I can see it Aphra and Dash would probably make for a humorous pair.
Stig Lapoint Actually she is bisexual. She did admit she found Luke to be attractive during the screaming citadel arc (worst arc of the SWC series). And I actually meant them more as a comedic duo rather than a couple but I could honestly see them as a couple. Though Aphra is a tough girl to tame (when not using lethal force on her).
Dash Rendar is the least likely part of Shadows of the Empire to be made canon. He was made to be a Han Solo knock off and his character is boring. The memorable parts of Shadows (the Outrider, Faleen) have already been made canon.
I definitely prefer the Legends story. "Shadows of the Empire" (the novel, comics, game and soundtrack) was much better than the canon version. I'd love to see Xizor and Dash Rendar show up again someday!
In battlefront 2 it says that she got it from maz, when I saw that I freaked OUT! 😂😂
Where does it say that??? Just wondering
It annoys me that they have to make new characters feel 'important' by being involved in the past.
Why is Maz a thing
@@you-5-iver804 me too. I know this is gonna piss off sequel fans, but I choose to pretend that return of the Jedi is the canon end of the series. I tried giving the sequels a chance, but it just didn’t work out
@@Rocky-bs2kw thats more chances than they deserve
I like them getting the suit from Maz, but other than that I prefer the Legends version
I ignore anything that includes Maz.
Shadows of the Empire was one of my favorite Star Wars novels when I was a kid, to bad it doesn't fit into the new Canon.
In Ubese Boushh is more of an ʉ sound (see the ipa chart) we know this because of in return of the jedi when Boushh turns to boba after receiving the bounty he asks “Douccha” as a polite sort of “how did I do?”
Black mailing the Black Sun, seems legit
I like both. Different but still enjoyable. If your going to compare more events in canon to legends after Thrawn alliances comes out I’d like to see his full history in the two. Or maybe James Lucenos Dark Lord Darth Vader novel compared to the first year arc of the current DV series.
It's possible that being sent after Leia was retribution for the blackmail. Like "oh you tried to blackmail us? Fine go on this suicide bounty in which you either give us a massive win, or die and we lose nothing"
I like them BOTH. Neither seems better, more or less plausible, more or less entertaining than the other.
I do hope that before too long, LucasFilm makes a new version of Shadows of the Empire. Combining the new canon with as much as they can salvage from the old.
It was the closest thing ANYTHING from the old EU came to being a full blown canon production.
I'd love to see it honored and revived.
The EU was full blown canon before 2014.
Ironinquisitor
No. It wasn't.
There were ranks/grades of how "canon" something was. And that shifted depending on what George Lucas said himself.
A ton of the EU was NEVER canon. Even according to Lucas himself.
+Aaron Nicewonger I did a video debunking all of that bullshit. Turn up the volume of your computer speaker high my mic sucks.
th-cam.com/video/OA6fMu0aDls/w-d-xo.html
The Black Sun getting Blackmailed oof
I'm glad Leia met Maz during her young time
This story is also briefly mentioned in the description for this skin in Battlefront 2
Thanks, Alex! 😊
I’m pretty sure Han was referring to Boba from the Holiday Special cartoon.
Amazing ;D
1065chris the book "Tales of the Bounty Hunters" stated that it was actually Bossk
What about a video comparing what we know about Luke's Jedi order in canon and in Legends?
In Battlefront 2, it says in the skin description that Maz gave it to her.
Nice Video :)
We should really have more stories between esb and rotj. We only have the two stories you mentioned and twilight company, but barely. It's really weird
"that's a rock"
Nice video
I like your explanations. I have a request. Do one on rogue squadron. The elite fighter squadron of the rebel alliance and the new republic
I'd rather wait for more canon information on them before he tackles the subject.
I doubt there will be any "canon" info. most likely swept under the rug by Disney. The Rogue squadron games, comics, and the Star Wars book series X-wing is where the info lies
How can you say they were swept under the rug when they named an entire movie to explain the inspiration for the squadron name? We just need to wait for more military stories that take place between Episodes IV and V to come out to learn more about the canon version of the squadron.
I was talking about the stories that already exist. dozens if not hundreds that, thanks to Disney no longer mean anything
Of course, but we want a good selection of both Legends and Canon info in these videos. If you just want a video about Rogue Squadron in Legends, it shouldn't be too hard to find a good one elsewhere.
what! Leai new Maz this entire time
Getting the disguise from another bunch of bad guys is more interesting
I would like to see a comparison between the Han Solo Trilogy by A.C. Crispen (notably the book rebel Dawn) and the new Solo movie. No matter what, A.C. Crispens version is my cannon.
I shared this on sw wiki so i got you a lot of views becuz right now it is top trending so 👍
Please do a species vid on the utopiuans that obi wan meets with in revenge of the sith
The Mighty Boushh
I thought that boushh was maz from the description of the outfit in battlefront 2
How about Guri the bodyguard from the Black Sun
You are the only one to like forces of desteny.
You know as much as i prefer canon over legends material, i really am not a fan of the forces of destiny shorts. As much as a appreciate the fact that its just a small segmented series targetted toward a much younger audience, and i really do appreciate and respect that stretch in terms of age demographic. I would much prefer the idea of them sticking to the more small, insignificant and subtle story elements as oppose to the much prominant story elements such as how leia claimed boushes armour, and im sure that there are other stories lile this, which i would prefer if they left alone, for a more mature audience. I like the idea of them doing small and insignificant shorts in the story, but i think that they should leave the bigger story explinations that answers questions between films, to the comics, novels or tv series, because the limitations and restrictions for the child demographics is just too not only restricting for story telling, but also means that the more mature audience are likely to miss out on the more important canon matrrial that comes from it.
Peter Conlon i mean, this feels pretty small and insignificant to me.. its a good way for the kids to actually be interested in the OT as well, intead of just the cartoons... but ultimately it feels like you might just mind more significance in small things than a lot of others do... not a bad thing, just an observation... mainly my point is that i think disney IS trying to make these obscure and small and insignificant, but everything is significant to someone and they cant make every episode of FoD be a character eating toast... anyways, at least you have these videos, so youre not gonna miss the detail
Heir to the jedi was between 5 & & 6 wasn't it?
I like the shadow of the Empire version better
Your the best!
Is forces of destiny canon? I may have to catch up
It appears so - or at least loosely so.
Chris sonofPear I best get watching then!
That is a Breen bounty hunter.
Cool
Technically parts of the book Battlefront take place between 5 and 6.
Or possibly DURING 5 mostly.
I prefer cannon, not that fanfic Disney came up with
Legends by far. Shadows of the Empire is my favorite Star Wars story ever and no corny cartoon is going to retcon that from me
A Galaxy Further Away except it already did
Well it is.
You can still kind of ignore it if you want...
Yeah forces of destiny may be canon but I'm yet to see this story in a more serious manner for it to retcon SOTE
There is nothing canon other than the 6 movies, the rest is Legends or Disney.
Hello there
George Lucas loved Shadows of the Empire so much I claimed had it came out years earlier he wouldve maxe a film out of it.
Well if it isn’t the ass that Destroyed months ago.
+Alex Chaudhari other way around I destroyed your bullshit.
I personally pronounce it as Boosh. Like how you say Douche.
The first person that watches fod
I just want more stories between 5 and 6 instead of the cliche 3 and 4
Jedi
Shadows of the Empire is still my favorite book I've read in Canon and Legends, so of course I would pick the legends side of how Leia got the disguise and the detonator anytime.
Boushh probobaly died when his helmet was remove in the cannon version
Definitely prefer Shadows of the Empire to the Force of Destiny series. More story and effort was put into Shadows of the Empire than Forces of Destiny and it shows. Not to mention it was the first Star Wars multi-media project. George Lucas has even stated that he loved Shadows of the Empire.
Legend version!!!
“This bounty hunter is my type of scum”
IS JAXXON CANON NOW
Why does that star wars cartoon look like one of those weird "animations for kids" animations?
you know the ones im talking about...
Legends was honestly way better
ThatOneGinger lies! Deception!
Legends was better and more original.
At least you didn't say one of them sucks like stupid fools would do
There was definitely a bit more variety to it, so far.
Ironinquisitor it was also very contradictory
Breen any one
The truth is Shadow of the Empire!
I prefer legends cuz that’s what I grew up with and love so much. However, if I try to empty my head for something different, then the new Disney canon isn’t that bad. It’s just trying to unlearn what I have learned.
She stole if from a dead breen, everyone knows that.
Hahahahah. That's is an amazing Trek reference
Don't you mention the Breen.
Jaxxon is canon if u watched it
"I prefer canon because it's trendy and I'm bias"
-The legends hater.
It's boo Sh
Shadows will always be canon to me. Much more so than what they're calling canon these days.
🤔 tough choice. See the Legends story would make sense if Boba Fett didn’t know Leia was an imposter which tipped Jabba to ruin her plans to rescue Han. He either got the information from Black Sun or witnesses during the skirmish in Ord Mantel.
I hate these videos that are like oh it’s not in canon but in LEGENDS like I don’t care if it isn’t canon
Legends. Don't mind the canon, but Shadows Of The Empire is just so much better.
EU>Disney Canon
Triggered much?
Not really I'm just stating the truth
Shadows of the empire book for me
is any of that cannon and is booshh dead in cannon
Not a huge fan of this style of artwork - looks too safe & clean
like something for kindergartners
As much as prefer canon to legends, I don't consider any of the new stories between ep 5 and ep 6 canon.
They are canon, doesn't matter what you consider.
Canon. I honestly don’t care about legends
Legends is great!
Both
You’re missing iut
Shadows was definitely a pretty fun novel.
Honestly I thought the story was pretty anti-climatic
ooo 420th like :)
Forces of Destiny is one of the worst things to be ever called star wars but I watch it all the Same
Shadows of the Empire explains all this....not Kathleen Kennedys bull sh*t...
legends is better
Hiya
People need to seriously wake up about the EU it wasn't that great. I'm sure there were certain points where it was Stellar but overall it was messy, contradictory, and way over the top. the new Canon is more consistent with its quality, doesn't contradict Canon, and is managed tightly
Sam.E.A
Consistent in the fact that it's garbage.
Apathetic Infidelity I take it you haven't read the comics
Sam.E.A
For Disney's fan-fiction? No. And I refuse to recognize it as canon.
Apathetic Infidelity while that's an interesting sentiment I'll give you that ,I have to tell you how foolhardy that is, the EU is dead, and was more fanfictuon than the new canon. There is no debate in that, you may not like the new canon but there are a lot more that do, especially younger generations that will enjoy it, shaking your fist at the Disney ruled skies isn't changing anything. And just spreading negativity to those that enjoy it just has the opposite effect.
