How can we understand all this without a prequel book for Din Aladdo's story. How did he get to the market? Why does he like baguettes? Does he like baguettes because his real father is Gui-Gon Jinn?!! We might need a prequel trilogy to fit all this in. And, you could put Gui-Gon Jinn on the cover.
I wasn't sure whether I wanted to watch this or not, then I saw that Jimmy Scrambles was in it (a character I could relate to) so I made coffee and sat down to enjoy..... SPOILER ALERT!! He wasn't in it :l But it was still a good story :) More! More!
A fantastic tale and a worthy addition to the critically acclaimed Star Wars EU canon. It was an emotional rollercoaster. I cheered when Boba Fett appeared (on the cover) and I made a frowny face when Dyin Gelato's family was probably dead and I was mightily impressed when the racism happened to let the audience know this is a deep story about complex issues. I give it a rating of 7 Luuuke Skywalkers out of 5 Mofferences.
in the novel, every time he is about to eat a baguette he is interrupted, just like some series that two characters wants to kiss but every time something interrupts them, this will e a recurring joke on the novel, maybe in the finale he can finally tastes a baguette and then dies

Did Jenny purposefully match the color of her bedroom to her skin tone? Like, did she go to Home Depot pretending it was a Sephora to pick out a foundation that would match her undertones? But instead of picking out makeup, she picked out a paint color that would allow her chameleon-like abilities to camouflage herself.
I remember my friends making fun of me writing Star Wars fanfic while devoring all the Star Wars novels at the bookstore and I pointed out that those were just fanfic that got lucky. Also, anyone remember the Star Trek Next Gen novels? I loved Star Trek before Star Wars but then my boyfriend showed me the first three movies that were made and I remember watching all three all the way through for the first time in my life and I don't know what it was but suddenly I just got it, I understood why people loved these movies. It was a rush of love and omg this is the greatest thing I've ever seen! Now I love both Star Trek and Star Wars.
Every Star Wars novel always had to have some new evil Imperial admiral or general. Even like 30 years later, somehow the Empire is always a threat and always has the capacity to support multipe massive star destroyers with 80,000 man crews even after they've been losing the war for decades.
Can Din have a r2 droid named Oagi, but then they find out Boba Fett has a r2 on Slave 1 that is a different color that they mix up when they leave because they are droidist
i think din should be able to escape the guards just by like punching them, but make sure everyone knows and comments on the fact that he's a really big guy, that'll help him in many situations
“Whatever watto is” “I’m a Toydarian!” I just love how there’s a line right in the movie this isn’t even a knock on Jenny it’s just honestly too perfect not to acknowledge
A cynical rapid-fire improvised Star Wars story with racist overtones? Okay, now I'm certain Jenny would be perfect on Red Letter Media. I'd love to hear her and Mike think up stories together like his improv'ed horror film
That’s cool and all, but about how big is Din? I was having trouble picturing the scenes without knowing the relative bigness of the protagonist. Massive oversight.
I absolutely love this. It's exactly how most of the stories on Fanfic websites sound lol. There really is a massive difference in quality between the 5% or so of stories that are good and the rest that are just random runon sentences
I love how this feels like a 50/50 mix of the Mandalorian and Rebels. Rebels: - Space Aladin - is an orphan - learns part of his family might be alive - wants to know what happened to them - searches for them - gets taken in by female, green Twi'lek pilot - they travel though space, beeing hunted The Mandalorian: - main character called Din - is an orphan - has no force abilities - does get racist comments - Boba Fett appears - Mandalorian bounty hunter complains about high fuel prices - one character with simmular outfit gets mistaken for Din - Sudden jedi saving the main characters in a time where most jedi are dead - The sequel/ spinn-off features Hutt(s) Now I want an episode of the Mandalorian with the premise that Bounty Hunters mistake Din for another Mandalorian or the other way around.
I want an in universe Star Wars character who just refers to various members of species by the names of specific individuals: “Chewie, Boba, Watto, Greedo, Jabba” etc
Fascinated by the idea of using beloved characters for fan service cameos, and making it play out in the most awkward way imaginable. A real ‘don’t meet your heroes’ kinda moment
I will never understand how any original Starwars movie people or fans found Boba Fett remotely awesome. He literally just screamed and sucked and flew into the side of Jabbas ship and fell into the sarlacc. wtf
Also, marketing. Not only does he have the cool armor and ship, his toys were objectively among the coolest. They would, like, shoot little plastic missiles and had a jet pack and stuff. So, kids were really more remembering their own play sessions with him as a toy more than the 10 minutes of screen time he had in a movie that, pre VHS, they probably only saw a couple times years prior.
He’s only awesome because of the EU. Well, maybe awesome isn’t the right word, but interesting. Since we learn almost nothing about him in the movies (except that’s he’s supposedly an amazing bounty hunter), it was easy for people to create their own idea of him and run with it. Plus he was visually interesting, with cool armor, a jet pack, suit weaponry, etc. Made a great picture or action figure.
To be fair, all Mon Calamari look the same. Speaking of Mon Calamari, whoever picked that name for the squid-looking creatures, could they have been any more lazy?

The thing about sci fi series that last a super long time is that eventually the writers are grown up fans of the show (*cough* Doctor Who), getting paid to write fanfiction. Some of them are good at what they do. Some of them probably should have left their writing to fanfic sites.
In the postcredit scene Din Aladdo comes home to see Mace Windu but Mace isn't wearing his usual Jedi robes... Din goes, "Mace Windu! What are you doing here? What happened to your eye?" Mace goes "I'm not Mace--I'm Nick Fury. What? Can't tell a brotha apart?"
Star Wars canon is a complex thing. Most of the EU books you refer to were never in top-tier canon, or rather, G-Canon (Lucas canon). Ther tier system went like this: G-Canon (George Lucas Canon) This included the original Star Wars saga and was the highest most unfaltering form of canon. T-Canon (TV Canon) This included the television shows, such as _The Clone Was_ micro series and the CG series. C-Canon (Continuity Canon) This is where a lot of the EU rested. Examples would be many of the video games, such as _The Force Unleashed_ or the campaign from the _Battlefront_ games or _Knights of the Old Republic_ and the like. This also included many of the books such as the _Darth Bane_ trilogy and the _New Jedi Order_ series, etc. S-Canon (Secondary Canon) This is essentially where the "non-canon" material begins. Or in other words, the stuff that generally was unrecognized or referenced to by other media. But this included the original run of Marvel comics and some of the original books. Content creators could choose to pull from this material or not, but it was not required (sort of how the Legends continuity works now). N-Canon (Non Canon) This is in reference to things that straight up were not canon like the alternate timelines of _The Force Unleashed_ or the _Marvel: Infinites_ storylines. This even includes deleted scenes from the movies that conflict with other material. There are also other comics like the _Resurrection_ comic or some of the Marvel Boba Fett material from _Star Wars Tales_ that is non-canon as well. Today, Star Wars canon is far less dense, with material either being Canon or Legends. Or in other words, G-Canon and T-Canon (with a few exceptions) and then everything else, until they are brought back into canon. Also, it's a common misconception, but Disney did not make the decision to not follow the previous Expanded Universe. Kathleen Kennedy, the president of Lucasfilm made that decision, as she said at the then Star Wars Anthology panel at Star Wars Celebration 2014.
Antoine Bandele good point & George Lucas had a strict policy on what they did or couldn't do. Before the Prequels were made George Lucas had it off limits because he had that era in mind. He would never allow anyone to write Yoda's origin story because he wants to have him mysterious. Plus with The New Jedi Order series the author thought about killing off Luke, but George Lucas said no because Luke & the two droids were off limits & Lucas said he wanted the Yuuzhan Vong outside of the Force.
When did she say it was top tier canon? She just said it was canon, which your post verifies. Also, if Kennedy said that in 2014, that was after Disney bought Lucasfilm. She was therefore a Disney employee at that point, so the decision was made by Disney. It could only *not* be a Disney decision if it was made before the acquisition and was documented as such at the time (i.e. no retconning)
Jenny you are brilliant, I love all your videos, keep making them!!!!! Your snarky humor makes me snort like a Toydarian (I.e. Watto's species and the most ironically named race in all Star Wars!)
There are a lot of good Star Wars EU books out there. Like the Darth Bane Trilogy, The Fate of the Jedi Series, and The Star Wars Legacy books. I will admit though that there are pretty bad ones out there too (Mostly the ones that were published from the 80s and mid 90s), but there are still a lot worth reading. I really enjoyed the video. Your dry, sarcastic humor always makes me laugh. 😂
I tried reading the first trilogy that came out, the direct sequels to Return of the Jedi. About Thrawn. I was extremely disappointed. Maybe I'll give another series a shot.
Wouldn't the first EU Trilogy be the Han Solo Trilogy by Brain Daily (not to be confused with the Han Solo Trilogy by AC Crispin, that actually references Brian Daily's novels)? Published in 1979-1980 (after Splinter of the Mind's Eye), Han Solo gets a scar on his chin before Raiders of the Lost Ark even came to theaters (let alone Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, which shows how Indy got the chin scar). Lando also got his own trilogy before Heir to the Empire came out
Just before episode seven I wrote a short story about a Ithorian who was a bartender on Coruscant and collected plants. It was in the genre of "casual science-fiction/fantasy" so there wasn't really a story that meant anything for anyone but him. He just experienced a bunch of stuff that allowed him to grow and explore the themes of his thoughts. An example of a circle that gets full is him finally seeing the fruit of a strange plant he collected grow and ripen (and then putting it in a drink - it would be a neat match cut with some humour). There was also a lot happening in the background that made the world and the scenes interesting. Still not sure if I want a scene where a Jedi chases a bounty hunter (over a pipe between two buildings in the background somewhere in lower Coruscant at about four in the afternoon - almost like a silhouette with some orange rays of light making their way down), but I wrote it just in case. If it was adapted to a movie it would be directed like a Jaques Tati movie, and the score would alternate between soft jazz (think "The Glass House with Butterfly" by Tomas Dvorak) when it's all chill and introvert, and rhythmic Amon Tobin-esque music (like "Keep Your Distance") when the protagonist is making his way through a busy market or something. ...yeah...
When you see it in The Empire Strikes Back in profile with people standing on it, it’s quite big… somewhere between 85-90 feet long depending on how much extra height Boba Fett got from his helmet and shoes.
Full disclosure though, Abu sounds like she'd be my favorite character in this book. (It also sounds loads better than most star wars books I've seen and read, though I am a hardcore Terry Pratchett fan so...)
The main reason the EU can't be canon anymore is that R.A. Salvatore, worst of his name, killed off Chewie. My headcanon is that Disney are just huge Chewie fans and when they saw that they were like "that's it, nuke the whole thing!" They also bought the franchise specifically so they could bring Chewie back, and we all lived happily ever after.
OK, WHAT THE HELL???? I've watched tons of your Star Wars videos and you always seem to accurately predict wild story elements, but this is on a whole other level. I mean, lead bounty hunter character named Din who is an orphan, and Boba Fett plays a role in the story at some point... How likely is to get these details right? From all the millions of existing names, the many professions in the galaxy, she just got them right. Are we supposed to act like this is normal? LMAO

Or just turn the lightsaber off as you “swallow” it
How can we understand all this without a prequel book for Din Aladdo's story. How did he get to the market? Why does he like baguettes? Does he like baguettes because his real father is Gui-Gon Jinn?!! We might need a prequel trilogy to fit all this in. And, you could put Gui-Gon Jinn on the cover.
I'm pretty sure it's spelled "Din Aladdo".
Yeah, it would be, wouldn't it.

Everyone just being really racist but also not being able to get over it in any capacity as a theme is kind of brilliant.
So what happened to Abu? Was she just sitting on the escape pod smiling to herself while Boba Fett got stabbed and all of that?

in the novel, every time he is about to eat a baguette he is interrupted, just like some series that two characters wants to kiss but every time something interrupts them, this will e a recurring joke on the novel, maybe in the finale he can finally tastes a baguette and then dies
Max Rebo is a Jedi, Ackbar is a bounty hunter, and Fett once again dies in a humiliating manner. This could be the best Star Wars story ever told...
SuspiciousBananaTree Fett slips on a space banana?
That's perfect how she's like "woh, I can't see" and the camera's like "fuck it, me neither! We're having fun!"
Definitely fits the pattern of Star Wars main characters having distant-nonexistent relationships with their family.
Makes you wonder about George Lucas's family life/childhood.
Typical Disney family dynamic. You're usually an orphan or have a single surviving parent. If you have a family, prepare to lose them for some reason.

excuse me, but I think the proper term is spacist.

Rebels:
- Space Aladin
- is an orphan
- learns part of his family might be alive
- wants to know what happened to them
- searches for them
- gets taken in by female, green Twi'lek pilot
- they travel though space, beeing hunted
The Mandalorian:
- main character called Din
- is an orphan
- has no force abilities
- does get racist comments
- Boba Fett appears
- Mandalorian bounty hunter complains about high fuel prices
- one character with simmular outfit gets mistaken for Din
- Sudden jedi saving the main characters in a time where most jedi are dead
- The sequel/ spinn-off features Hutt(s)
Now I want an episode of the Mandalorian with the premise that Bounty Hunters mistake Din for another Mandalorian or the other way around.
I want an in universe Star Wars character who just refers to various members of species by the names of specific individuals: “Chewie, Boba, Watto, Greedo, Jabba” etc

Star Wars canon is a complex thing. Most of the EU books you refer to were never in top-tier canon, or rather, G-Canon (Lucas canon). Ther tier system went like this:
G-Canon (George Lucas Canon)
This included the original Star Wars saga and was the highest most unfaltering form of canon.
T-Canon (TV Canon)
This included the television shows, such as _The Clone Was_ micro series and the CG series.
C-Canon (Continuity Canon)
This is where a lot of the EU rested. Examples would be many of the video games, such as _The Force Unleashed_ or the campaign from the _Battlefront_ games or _Knights of the Old Republic_ and the like. This also included many of the books such as the _Darth Bane_ trilogy and the _New Jedi Order_ series, etc.
S-Canon (Secondary Canon)
This is essentially where the "non-canon" material begins. Or in other words, the stuff that generally was unrecognized or referenced to by other media. But this included the original run of Marvel comics and some of the original books. Content creators could choose to pull from this material or not, but it was not required (sort of how the Legends continuity works now).
N-Canon (Non Canon)
This is in reference to things that straight up were not canon like the alternate timelines of _The Force Unleashed_ or the _Marvel: Infinites_ storylines. This even includes deleted scenes from the movies that conflict with other material. There are also other comics like the _Resurrection_ comic or some of the Marvel Boba Fett material from _Star Wars Tales_ that is non-canon as well.
Today, Star Wars canon is far less dense, with material either being Canon or Legends. Or in other words, G-Canon and T-Canon (with a few exceptions) and then everything else, until they are brought back into canon.
Also, it's a common misconception, but Disney did not make the decision to not follow the previous Expanded Universe. Kathleen Kennedy, the president of Lucasfilm made that decision, as she said at the then Star Wars Anthology panel at Star Wars Celebration 2014.
Antoine Bandele good point & George Lucas had a strict policy on what they did or couldn't do. Before the Prequels were made George Lucas had it off limits because he had that era in mind. He would never allow anyone to write Yoda's origin story because he wants to have him mysterious. Plus with The New Jedi Order series the author thought about killing off Luke, but George Lucas said no because Luke & the two droids were off limits & Lucas said he wanted the Yuuzhan Vong outside of the Force.
When did she say it was top tier canon? She just said it was canon, which your post verifies. Also, if Kennedy said that in 2014, that was after Disney bought Lucasfilm. She was therefore a Disney employee at that point, so the decision was made by Disney. It could only *not* be a Disney decision if it was made before the acquisition and was documented as such at the time (i.e. no retconning)
Antoine Bandele Whatever nerd.
Antoine Bandele I can't tell if she cares.
You just mansplained her hard
What implied she didn't already know this
This was such a rollercoaster of action and emotion. Solid 8/10.
When you got to the part about the second Twilek I almost died laughing :)
(whispering) "He can't tell them apart"
Jenny you are brilliant, I love all your videos, keep making them!!!!! Your snarky humor makes me snort like a Toydarian (I.e. Watto's species and the most ironically named race in all Star Wars!)
I can't leave believe this predicted a guy called Din being on the run from a bunch of bounty hunters.
Your natural comedic delivery is second to none. I think people would spend a lifetime trying to learn to do it like that. Grade A awesomeness
There are a lot of good Star Wars EU books out there. Like the Darth Bane Trilogy, The Fate of the Jedi Series, and The Star Wars Legacy books. I will admit though that there are pretty bad ones out there too (Mostly the ones that were published from the 80s and mid 90s), but there are still a lot worth reading. I really enjoyed the video. Your dry, sarcastic humor always makes me laugh. 😂
I tried reading the first trilogy that came out, the direct sequels to Return of the Jedi. About Thrawn. I was extremely disappointed. Maybe I'll give another series a shot.
Wouldn't the first EU Trilogy be the Han Solo Trilogy by Brain Daily (not to be confused with the Han Solo Trilogy by AC Crispin, that actually references Brian Daily's novels)? Published in 1979-1980 (after Splinter of the Mind's Eye), Han Solo gets a scar on his chin before Raiders of the Lost Ark even came to theaters (let alone Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, which shows how Indy got the chin scar).
Lando also got his own trilogy before Heir to the Empire came out
When you said your character is buying a baguette I laughed so hard :)
I can already hear the arguments between DinJaz, DinAbu, and AbuJaz fans in my head
I was actually sad when the video ended.
Absolute brilliant, and i like listening to your voice c:
“Din... Allado.” I’m fucking dead
"Din". aka, The Mandalorian
The New Jedi Order was extremely good. The whole Yuuzhan Vong, Thrawn, and uncharted space threats, is an amazing arc.
i dont even like star wars all that much but jenny is just so intriguing 24/7 that i watch every single second of all of her videos
I would honestly just listen to you improving stories for several hours if I could
I laughed. Extra points for throwing your autofocus out of whack with the power of gestures.
Correction... A SPACE baguette!
moisture baguette, from the moisture farming
Did he ever get his baguette?
Just before episode seven I wrote a short story about a Ithorian who was a bartender on Coruscant and collected plants. It was in the genre of "casual science-fiction/fantasy" so there wasn't really a story that meant anything for anyone but him. He just experienced a bunch of stuff that allowed him to grow and explore the themes of his thoughts. An example of a circle that gets full is him finally seeing the fruit of a strange plant he collected grow and ripen (and then putting it in a drink - it would be a neat match cut with some humour).
There was also a lot happening in the background that made the world and the scenes interesting. Still not sure if I want a scene where a Jedi chases a bounty hunter (over a pipe between two buildings in the background somewhere in lower Coruscant at about four in the afternoon - almost like a silhouette with some orange rays of light making their way down), but I wrote it just in case.
If it was adapted to a movie it would be directed like a Jaques Tati movie, and the score would alternate between soft jazz (think "The Glass House with Butterfly" by Tomas Dvorak) when it's all chill and introvert, and rhythmic Amon Tobin-esque music (like "Keep Your Distance") when the protagonist is making his way through a busy market or something.
...yeah...
I was actually disappointed when The Mandalorian proved that multiple people can fit in the Slave I.
When you see it in The Empire Strikes Back in profile with people standing on it, it’s quite big… somewhere between 85-90 feet long depending on how much extra height Boba Fett got from his helmet and shoes.
Full disclosure though, Abu sounds like she'd be my favorite character in this book. (It also sounds loads better than most star wars books I've seen and read, though I am a hardcore Terry Pratchett fan so...)
#ClonesArePeopleYouGuys
The main reason the EU can't be canon anymore is that R.A. Salvatore, worst of his name, killed off Chewie. My headcanon is that Disney are just huge Chewie fans and when they saw that they were like "that's it, nuke the whole thing!" They also bought the franchise specifically so they could bring Chewie back, and we all lived happily ever after.
i cracked up when Din rescues the wrong woman
comedic timing on point
Came across this randomly. Realized you sort of low key called it on the Mandalorian's first name in the Disney+ series hahaha.
Many Exciting Things Happen While Boba Fet Goes To Starbucks So We Can Put Him on the Cover: See, There He Is!
this is the best thing to have happened to me this summer
OK, WHAT THE HELL????
I've watched tons of your Star Wars videos and you always seem to accurately predict wild story elements, but this is on a whole other level.
I mean, lead bounty hunter character named Din who is an orphan, and Boba Fett plays a role in the story at some point...
How likely is to get these details right? From all the millions of existing names, the many professions in the galaxy, she just got them right. Are we supposed to act like this is normal? LMAO
Also, Max Rebo appearing on The Book of Boba Fett.
I'd honestly read/watch this story. 10/10 support you in doing more of these type of vids
