Practically speaking, what is preventing a dedicated group of artists/autists on this board from establishing a non-cucked, 8ch-approved canon? We curate a list of approved materials (either by council or community vote) from old and new canon, in addition to fanworks that capture the general spirit and follow a certain set of rules.
I think this list is a solid starting point of having good material to draw from while also giving creators enough room to play around:
>KotOR I & II + Restored Content
>l8wrtr's fanedits of the Prequel Trilogy (I haven't seen HAL9000's, but I've heard good things)
>Clone Wars (2D and 3D series)
>Rebels
>Original Theatrical Trilogy
>Dark Forces/Jedi Knight series
There are 3 big problems I can see here:
>fanedits and game mods are in greater danger of disappearing due to not being nearly as widely distributed as official material
>the whole project might be nuked by a DMCA if the Mouse feels threatened
>establishing an approval process that's resistant to infiltration and low-quality work

I disagree. I think it would make sense to start from a core of "Separatist canon" material and build up from there. For example, we could establish the movies and the Thrawn books as canon, and then start evaluating games, books or comics in a chronological order in either direction.
There's a lot of erratic and sometimes conflicting content in Legends and I believe a more cautioned or systematic approach would work best.

I think it would be a lot more interesting and believable if the clones were conditioned from conception to obey certain commands. To me it's a little silly that master genetailors like the Kaminoans would have to resort to electronic hardware to control their clones.

I say we disregard 'The Clone Wars 2008' series completely, and replace it with the 'Star Wars Multimedia Project'.
It introduced many interesting characters and concepts that the 2008 TV series completely bastardised. Much better quality content and has little to no continuity errors. Unlike TCW which is absolutely riddled with errors and lore-breaks.

You see even ashoka's existence causes a continuity error. IT gets the date of anakin's knighting wrong.
Also the nightsisters arc butchers the dathomir lore, what were originally a cool community of witches that use both sides of the force became le ebil dargsiders.
Not to mention Asajj Ventress being almost completely different to her badass portrayal in the Multimedia Project.

There's no point in arguing against Ahsoka. She has too many waifufags who will defend her to death because they grew up with her. Also, reminder that little kids who grew up squirting their peepee mayo to the sight of Ahsoka are old enough to post here now so there's no way to escape the Ahsokafaggotry. Honestly, only time I actually grew to like the character was when she began to question if the Republic were really the good guys and started sympathizing with the CIS and possibly fucking one of its members. Of course even that arc goes to shit when Dooku is dumbed down to Palpatine's patsy who is just using the CIS to further his master's plans instead of genuinely believing in the CIS cause and hating the Republic due to seeing it as corrupt like in his expanded media.

No, u git. I'm saying that trying to say shit about Ahsoka always results in her white knights showing up in droves to defend her. Even anti-Disney and pro-EU types who got out of their way to shit on Disney will never stop reminding us how Ahsoka's portrayal in Rebels is the only good thing to come out of nu-canon and that "she's the fucking best and proof that Disney can do things right and that Rebels is the best piece of SW media" and whatnot, even though her "revival" in Rebels was a literal asspull as she was extracted from the anus of time and space.

The best way to deal with that is rewriting it so that Plo is still her master until close to ROTS and Plo leaves her with Anakin or Obi-Wan/is assigned to work with them, or make it so that she's a friend of Anakin's from when he was a padawan. That way you still get a similar dynamic, but less continuity fuck-ups assuming Plo Koon training her isn't one.
>>18698
I like the character, but it's clear the show has series continuity issues in regards to legends. it even contradicts some bits of the movies. That and you can see nu-Canon's obsession with "kyber crystals" starting in some of the later/unfinished episodes. it's spelled Kaiburr, and there's only supposed to be one

If just being alone on a ship with someone attractive was enough to ensure sex, Anakin and Ahsoka would have banged dozens of times because he's a dashing, handsome war hero that all the girls love and she's a sexy teenage babe.

Use 7zip to extract the archives yourself. From there, you'll get some disc images. Either burn them to a DVD or use Handbrake (and probably something like Daemon Tools Lite) to make video files out of them.
I don't think you're really done with those downloads, though. There's no way the Blu-Ray is only 976 MB. Or have you been clearing the files from your download list as they finished? That might be why the extractions failed.

He's only cut the prequels. I like his edits because they follow the story (some edits make big changes like having Padme live), cut away what doesn't work, and add deleted material that benefits the picture. You can click the 'Changes' tabs on these pages for specifics.

l8wrtr hasn't done anything for the new films. Some people have, but I'm waiting until the trilogy is done so I can be reasonably certain the editor won't paint themselves into a corner by cutting out something important.

Some actual suggestions:
-Some sources have the Death Star 2 so large, it's superlaser is the size of the entire Death Star 1, which is pretty retarded, both in terms of completely needless extra power and crew requirements, and of how they'd built around 80% of it so quickly. It should be the same size as the first Death Star, if not a bit smaller. And the smackdown on his officers the Emperor had to lay to even get another one built would make an interesting story.*
-The hologram of Endor and Death Star 2 is representative, not to scale!
*-We're adding our own stories to the Seperatist Canon, right? And tagging them as such on big sites like Fanfic.net? The butthurt / blanket bans it would cause would be hilarious.
