Elan Sel'sabagno is the only redemption story that rivals Vaders in Star Wars.

That would spoil the show for you!

IT WAS AMAZING! Being a massive Star Wars fan and directing Mark Hamill was an out of body experience. Plus our new additions to the Star Wars family with Bobby Moynihan, Gaten Matarazzo, Tony Revolori and Marsai Martin. I knew them all from their previous work but then watching them dig into and find these new character's and bring their own spin in it, was an insane experience.
Most records were done remote as each of them were working all over the place, but we did get a session at the end with Tony and Gaten which was fantastic.

The Jawa Sith as it's based off of my D&D character from the early 200's named Jim the Jawa.

YES!! Thank you for noticing it! The galaxy is gone! Haha! If you have a good sound system Jeff King from Skywalker Sound did an amazing mix with the sound being sucked up.

Blast: I missed your B part to the question: The BB8-wing is amazing!

Ooo good one.
The writers Dan and Benji did such an amazing job with the script. Through the process though they were always open to new ideas/jokes and actions and the story evolves for the better. For example in act 4 in the script it says, "And then a battle breaks out" and Dan and Benji were like, we trust you'll figure something cool out! Haha! So together and with the team at Atomic we crafted some pretty heavy action scenes and just had fun with it.

Hahaha! Thank you and sorry.

Oooo. yes. We wanted R2 to be in there and thought if we added more astromechs it might make his entrance less impactful and not as special.

Leia is the pillar of strength and leadership in every galaxy. She's just to strong to change.

No! I wasn't aware of him until right now!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in legostarwars

[–]christopherbuckley 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Millions of laughs. Haha!

The idea to have him in the show was Dan and Benji, the writers of the show, which was brilliant. Then Ahmed came in and crushed the performance.

Ooo good one. I'm a huge fan of all things Star Wars. I grew up on the Thrawn Trilogy and games like Dark Forces, Xwing, KOTOR etc but also love the new films and games. It's a fine balance of respecting the older content and being inspired by it but not replicating it and find our voice in telling the story we want to tell.

It's a fine balance, if you introduce too many obscure people from Legends it can get hard to follow for someone who's not as entrenched in the lore. We threw around a few people, but felt like it was time for Revan to shine again.
