Expanded Universe Adaptations.

Matt and John discuss what additional material from the legendary Star Wars Expanded Universe they’d like to see adapted into big & small-screen material, both live action and animated, for modern audiences to experience. They challenge themselves to keep it limited to 5 sources each, but as with most things like this…they maybe went a little beyond that.
