Working Horn in would be about as cool to me as live action Ahsoka was to epilogue. Plus he’d fit in to the post-RotJ Jedi rebuilding.oneway23 wrote:You're not missing much.

I, Jedi is the best Star Wars book written. Even better than the original Thrawn trilogy.epilogue wrote:Guess I have to go look up Corran Horn...wease wrote:Working Horn in would be about as cool to me as live action Ahsoka was to epilogue.

He’s already established in the Rogue squadron books up to that point (and the Stackpole books are the best) but he really embraces his being a Force sensitive in this book.

Re: Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 2023
More of that smoke....announcement for Old Republic movie (or whatever unnamed movie is apparently in the works) imminent?
The official reason for the postponment is scheduling conflicts with Jenkins' calendar...but c'mon!
"Thus, Squadron has been taken off the production schedule and is being postponed. The hope is that once Jenkins’ fulfills her previous commitments, she will be able to return to the project."
The tone of that statement is rather ominous, isn't it? Not postponed to 2024, or whatever. It's just "off the schedule", with a "hope" that she will return to the project.

Was that her? I haven’t seen it. Is it bad?
You weren’t to know but it looks like they’re about to make a big announcement about knights of the old republic. Some video game. Now being made into a film.
And it’s probably rian Johnson doing it.
Let’s see

Bummer. Yeah, WW 1984 sucks bad, but the plane scenes were cool. And this one was the first movie in a post sequel world right?
Seems it wont get made. SW fucked up with announcing all those series and movies i guess.

If you’re getting that from that Pucked site, it’s bullshit.
The guy has a long history of bullshit and ranting about Kathleen Kennedy. As he is again today.

Agreed those types of websites and commentators have been predicting imminent changes in management for Star Wars or Star Trek for YEARS. I got my hopes up with Star Trek enough times to not fall for that shit anymore. I did hear creative differences on this movie though but who knows?
