Star Wars The Force Unleashed II Novelization

[Admiral_Young]

I finished this in one sitting and thought it was fantastic, better than the first novel, although I was rather perplexed by the end of it. After such terrific blistering pacing it sort of just...ends...kind of reminded me of Empire Strikes Back. Does this mean that there will be a third game? Perhaps at best it means that we'll be seeing more of Galen and Juno in other media. Either way I quite liked it, and think that if this was adapted into feature length films I would be satisfied.

-Sam Witner can stay as Starkiller or be replaced by Sam Worthington
-Charlize Theron as Juno Eclipse
-Nathan Fillion as Bail Prestor Organa (taking over from Jimmy Smits)
-James Earl Jones returns as the voice of Darth Vader
-

Anyways has anyone else read the novel and what did they think?

-Nathan Fillion as Bail Prestor Organa (taking over from Jimmy Smits)

-James Earl Jones returns as the voice of Darth Vader

Fillion... why? Whats wrong with Smits. Oh, and as far as Jones doing the voice of Vader ever again, a phrase involving hell and freezing over spring to mind...

As for the novelization, I enjoyed it. It's nice to get tings fleshed out. At least there wasn't a huge robot with a shield every 2.4 seconds!

I was never a fan of Smits Organa...and I agree the two books seem to do a good job of filling things in and a suitable depiction at how the Rebellion was formed. I like the fact that Galen's family crest is the Alliance symbol, and that an apprentice of Vader's is responsible for helping to galvanize the Rebels.

Why replace Smits? But if you need to, I'd go with Esai Morales.

I'd prefer a movie about Knights of the Old Republic whether it be about Darth Revan or the resurgent Sith Empire. TFU is very low on my list.

I dunno about the actual video game but both novelizations, especially this one had a cinematic feel about them that a lot of the EU fails to grasp. Sean Williams can write Star Wars whenever he wants to IMO.

Does this mean that there will be a third game?

Rumour going around is there will not be a third game. They had planned to make one, but cancelled prior to the release of game 2 by the new head of LucasArts.

Then I assume we'll be seeing Galen and Juno in other media. Perhaps in comics.
