Boba is in the Sarlac pit, unless I missed them mentioning something in one of the new books. richmond would know that.

do not believe that boba fett possesses the force.

and Mace Windu is a goner, right?

He gone

Chewbacca died in the books, though, right? but he's back in this one?

Take your books and burn them.

Or just put them in on a shelf called 'What if?'. Richmond has been letting us know now about hte books that now 'count'. And it's none of the ones you read. The comics 'count', too. But not the Dark Horse ones.

does Jarjar count?

he's the only thing that counts

no twins, no Lowie, etc Movies count. Rebels counts. new comics and books count.

Yes, he's in the Sarlacc Pit. But it seems almost certain that he got out. There was an interlude scene in Aftermath where a couple of scavengers find a scarred and battered set of Mandalorian armor while searching an abandoned Jawa sandcrawler on Tatooine. We haven't seen him "on screen" anywhere in a post-ROTJ story, but I'd be a ton of money that we will.

IIRC, there was something in the Clone Wars series about the Kaminoans never being able to clone a Force user.

BTW, the Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels series are both canon too, not just the movies and books/comics.

Yes, but he's almost undoubtedly dead by now. We've seen Naboo in a couple of different formats over the past 18 months, and he's never once been mentioned. And Ep VII is ~58 years after the events of Ep III. So fingers crossed.

Anyone else attempting to buy tickets for the first Episode Seven 12/17 showing at their respective IMAXs? Online tickets will become available at some point tonight, but it's not terribly clear what time that will be.

Initial rumor was 8:30PM Atlantic, but now I'm reading that it they will become available after the final trailer is released, at half-time of tonight's Eagles game. Which clearly will be significantly later than the reported 8:30PM time. I have been googling all morning, and there is surprisingly little clarity on this topic. Anyone here have any idea?

No one seems to know for certain. It's bizarre. My guess is that it will either be after the trailer airs or at midnight.

Did you read the, now, non-canon Bob Fett comic "Boba Fett is Dead"?? It was pretty good stuff.

Re: tickets, somehow my sons Cub Scout pack was able to rent out the imax theater in Wilmington for a 9:00 AM show on 12/18. So I've got my tickets already :p

Probably, but I don't remember. There were a bunch of Fett origin stories. There was a pretty decent short story in the "Tales from Jabba's Palace" anthology about how he got out of the Sarlacc.
