Are deleted scenes considered "canon"? Example: the conversation between Biggs and Luke at Anchorhead in A New Hope.—Unsigned comment by 206.53.238.241 (talk • contribs)
- Can be iffy sometimes, but they generally are because they appear in other sources, like the novelizations, comic adaptations, radio dramas, etc. One example of one not being canon though would be Shaak Ti's death, because that is contradicted by her appearance in a hologram later in the film, as well as another upcoming appearance. -- Ozzel 06:14, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
So, what determines the truth. Did the above coversation happen in Starwars Universe?—Unsigned comment by 206.53.238.241 (talk • contribs)
- The Biggs scene is in the novelization, among other things, so yes, it did indeed happen. - Ozzel 07:44, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
So, as long as it still exists in a book,comic, or movie it exists. Games too I see. okay, just wondered. I imagine if other cut scenes were to be introduced into a novel, they to would be canon. Correct?
- Yep. If you want to consider canon some cut content from a source, it has to appear elsewhere. Klow 18:35, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
- The deleted scenes such as Shaak Ti's death in ROTS is not canonJediBob 20:14, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, we know. So, it has to appear elsewhere, unless it's specifically contradicted, lik Shaak Ti's death. Klow 12:23, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
