What do you think a conversation between these two would be like?

And you know, the biggest irony is that Filoni, the supposed Star Wars super fan took lore from the EU (Ghorman massacre) and did nothing with it (if anything altered it for no reason other than to alter it), while Gilroy, the non-fan, took that lore and did something interesting with it while simultaneously preserving the original EU lore in his show.

Dave Filoni's approach to adapting the EU is to steal names. It's all style without substance.

It’s interesting how much more utilitarian their uniforms have become. I wonder if the Empire kept the same guardsman in its employ when the it was founded.

What did you think of the new uniform?
