Eh...there are slight spoilers coming up, for anyone who hasn't read the last(or any) book in the NJO Series.


If you HAVE read the latest book: Behind Enemy Lines II: Rebel Stand, what do you think about the Lord Nyrax guy, eh? He sounds like Darth Vader gone druggie...or something.

Anyway, before they came up with Lord Nyrax(the all italics used for his scenes give a great affect, by the way) I pretty much figured that the NJO series was the end of Star Wars, or at least, as we know it.

Now, I think we're getting back to the old Star Wars, in a new way. It's not the old, stagnant, cliched battles with an Imperial Dark Jedi...[i]this[/i], friends, is the juicy stuff. We're talking Exar Kun mated with a wampa; and I do mean 'a wampa.'

To those of you who were considering skipping the NJO series, I now highly recommend that you grit your teeth, and fight your way through it. I sense something VERY good coming up.

Of course, I guess a 10 foot bad guy with(this is pure speculation based upon the way they describe his blade) a four-side lightsaber and some insane Force abilities, might do that to a galaxy.

Welcome to the New Jedi Order.

[QUOTE]Didn't you read the novelization of Episode II? The Jedi Archivist, Jocasta Nu, was an extremely respected and well liked lady. She wasn't stuffy...beh.[/QUOTE]

I did, but I was basing my opinion about her from the way she [I]looked[/I] in Epsoide II. I forgot I shouldnt judge a book by its cover:blush:

Justin-

I asked for the newest NJO book for my birthday, but I doubt I will get it. It was sold out everywhere I looked (Barnes &Noble, My local bookstore and Walden books.)

I decided a while ago I would read the NJO series and have read every one of them that is out in stores (besides Rebel Lines II)

My favorite was Rebel Lines I

Well, the more I read about him, the more I like him. I won't ruin anymore surprises for anyone who hasn't read them yet, but suffice it to say, he's much stronger(Force-wise and otherwise) than Luke Skywalker.

This means I have to rewrite that fanfic about Luke's death...

To my knowledge, no one has drawn him yet.

He's JUST come out, so it's possible there will be drawing of him in teh future.

The fanfic is somewhere in Stories/Poetry, if you want to read it. :)

He's desribed as such in the book: 3 meters in height. Pale skin, curly dark hair, sea-blue eyes, a nose that suggested old aristocracy. He was young, barely twenty. He wore a plae, kiltlike wrap around his midsection and shiny items on various points of his body. Fingerless gloves, elbow covers, and kneee covers.

Boba Fett would you help me with my Star Wars Fanfic? My brother (Mr. Maul) was going to help me but he's at camp now. I need help from someone who knows a lot about Star Wars. If you'd help I'd appreciate it.

Questions!!
1. How many times have you seen Episode II?
2. What are your favorite Star Wars quotes??

[color=teal]1.) I have seen Episode II two times, heh.

2.) Do you mean Star Wars in general? Gosh, I have no idea, "Use the force luke," I suppose.

I really liked the second movie. A lot more than the first, LOL, because this one had way more action. My favorite scene of the second one was when Anikan's mom died, and that music was playing and he goes out of the tent and cuts off their heads. Wow, that was pretty cool.[/color]

:blah:

SS Trunks, your answer to question #1 is correct.

BabyGirl, your answer to question #2 is correct.

Here are the three unanswered questions:

2 On what planet were the last of the Mandalorian warriors killed?

3 On what ship were all of Alderaan's weapons placed before the planet became pacifistic(sp?)

5 What is the Huttese word for please?

I have that Star Wars Travel Guide thingie here somewhere. IF I can ever find it, I'll give you the Huttese word for 'please.'

Other than that, I really have nothing more to say.

Except this: If I gave anyone false hope about the NJO series with my rantings on Lord Nyax, don't hold that hope any more. I finished the book last night, and now I'm going to do sulk in a corner.

Favorite Quote:

Yoda: MINE!MINE!MINE!MINE!(whacking R2 with his cane):D

I was watching Empire Strikes Back with my mom the other day and she didn't remember that part!! And when I watched Return of the Jedi were they're all singing and dancing in Jabba's Palace she thought it was Sesame Street!!:rolleyes:

Yoda vs. Count Dooka rocked. The guy kicks butt to be so small. I like how they set the stage for the next movie will all the tiny hints (ANakin wearing black while all the other Jedi's are in white, the last scene with the Fetts, the final scene period.)

1. I've seen Episode 2 once. :bawl:
2. My favorite quotes
[QUOTE]Obi-Wan: You see. Now she's probably gotten away. How do we expect to catch up to her...(Anikin jumps out of the car).
Obi-Wan: I hate it when he does that.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]The Captain of the Empire falls dead after apologizing to Vader for his arrogance.
Vader: Apology accepted Captain. [/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]Vader: Take my hand Luke. Don't be a fool. Don't let yourself die like Obi-Wan did.
Luke: Never.
Vader: Obi-Wan never told you about what happened to your father did he.
Luke: He told me enough. He told me you killed him.
Vader: No Luke. I am your father.
Luke: NOOOOOOO!
Vader: Search your feelings Luke. Look deep down, because you know that deep in your heart, what I say is true. [/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]
Anikin: It's Obi-Wan! He is holding me back! I will be the most powerful Jedi of them all. And one day I will destroy all evil. I wil save everyone. I will even prevent people from dying! (insert Imperial March song).[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE] C3PO: Die Jedi Scum. Oh wait they're the good guys.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]Han: C3PO what are you doing?
C3PO: Well its seems that these creatures worship me as some sort of god. They are holding a banquet in my honor and you are to be the main course[/QUOTE]

Any line where Darth Vader kills one of his cronies while being so nonchalant about it. None of these are exact quotes Except the first because I have a bad recollection of exact quotes.

uhhh.....yeah......Kind of late with this topic, seeing how I was banned...So I will just post my stuff now. :D

Hmmmm.....my favorite author....that's a toughy....I'd have to say Timothy Zahn. You have got to love the Thrawn books. It's my dream that he writes at least one novel in the NJO. But I dont think it's going to happen.

Iv'e seen AOTC's 4 times.

Favorite qoutes:

Yoda: Begun, this Clone War has.

Anakin: I...I killed them...all of them. Not just the men but the women and children too.(very powerful line, IMO)
