Say that ASB makes the various Star Wars characters react to the real-life franchise created by George Lucas; the films, TV, books, games and other such merchandise are all up for their observations and responses. This scenario is divided into two rounds: 1. Disney Canon 2. Legends
What happens next?
Thank you in advance, Zyobot

Would be fun to see Luke from the Disney Canon reacting to the knowledge of him marrying in the Legend Canon.

I wonder what the various Prequel characters would make of Darth Vader, specifically the circumstances that led to his rise. Their reactions to Episode III: Revenge of the Sith are especially worth exploring. The Jedi and Galactic Republic's reactions are fairly predictable, but what about Count Dooku, General Grievous and the Separatists' responses to the Hero With No Fear becoming Sidious's (who's also revealed to be Chancellor Palpatine!) latest pawn--who plays a central role in the destruction of both factions and helps forge a Galactic Empire in their wake? The Clones, of course, would be horrified and ashamed of what they were made to do--to say nothing of how Clone Wars-era Anakin and his comrades would feel. The knowledge that they'd have a hand in building and serving a regime more tyrannical than the Separatists ever were would do nothing to alleviate their collective guilt and supreme self-loathing. On the flip side, Luke and Leia are born towards the end. So from the good guys' perspective, perhaps there's a a silver lining of hope at the end of a decades-long tunnel of darkness. Upon watching the Original Trilogy, they'd learn that yes, good does emerge victorious in the end (at least until the Sequel Trilogy comes along).

Why not have Yoda in Episode 1 in a dream see all of the movies.

Why not have Yoda in Episode 1 in a dream see all of the movies. As apt as that'd otherwise be (it'd make for some good fanfiction, without a doubt), I'm looking for characters from across Star Wars's in-universe history to collectively react to the real-life media produced/licensed by Lucasfilm. Not just Yoda.
There'd be great confusion over what's meant by Canon and Legends, no doubt. And as soon as they figure out what they refer to, they'll have to pinpoint which characters, events and other stuff are from which timeline.

Well that also depends, do the Yuuzhan Vong also exist in the Disney Cannon but then again: Star Wars Has Just Introduced A Canon Replacement For The Yuuzhan Vong

I feel somewhat conflicted about this change, starting with what I think is a needless renaming. On the one hand, there were an iconic presence in the EU and would generate a great deal of hype if canonized. But on the other, I didn't really like how they undesirably altered the "feel" of Star Wars in my eyes--and for that, I found myself pleased that they, among other non-movie elements ended up relegated to the Legends canon. Still, I think they should reappear in some capacity, albeit maybe not the extragalactic, apocalypse-bringing civilization that instigates perhaps the worst war in in-universe history--it gets rather boring to deal with only species and societies within just one galaxy, I suppose. On a completely different note, if anyone has watched Star Wars-themed versus videos on Youtube or participated in like-discussions on the various sci-fi/fantasy forums out there, I wonder what the documented characters would make of the fact that not only have outsiders made and enjoy fiction centered on their lives, but that a number of them have also bothered to analyze them in-depth and provide detailed breakdowns accordingly. And the rampant fan works on the web especially rile them up, not to mention the many unofficial crossovers with other works like Star Trek, Warhammer 40k, etcetera ad infinitum that they'd also gain knowledge of in their searches. That's without taking into account that--sooner or later--both the Canon and Legends iterations will learn of the existence of (though not necessarily encounter) the other.

But you have not made it clear, how old are the Star Wars characters, are they from the first movies ore the last one.

But you have not made it clear, how old are the Star Wars characters, are they from the first movies ore the last one. Well, a great many (if not most) of them come from somewhere other than the movies, meaning that they're from the EU and/or any of the Star Wars-themed TV series (i.e. Ahsoka Tano and Bultar Swan). As for their ages, I suppose that whatever iterations are used in a given matchup will be the ones who react to themselves being broken down and hypothetically pitted against one another. For example, Path of Destruction Darth Bane and Dark Empire Luke Skywalker both watch and give their thoughts on Jensaarai1's analysis of them.

Thanks for the clarification, i do wonder how a 14-year-old Ahsoka Tano, a apprentice newly assigned to Anakin Skywalker would react to seeing here older self from Star War Rebels.

I'm sure she'd be rather pleased with her future self's demonstrated power levels--but baffled and absolutely aghast at the fact that in a few decades' time, the Jedi will have gone virtually extinct and an Empire ruled by the Sith ends up rising from the ashes of the now-defunct Republic. And that's before she finds out the true identity of the Emperor's new, black-armored henchman who boasts an exceptional command of the Force.

That'd be...exceedingly hard to process and cope with the knowledge of, to put it diplomatically. However, the emotional rollercoaster of being accused, tried by her own and ultimately leaving the Order after Anakin proves her innocence would be nothing compared to her Master's fall, the galaxy-wide eradication of the Jedi and the transformation of the decaying Republic into the iron-fisted Empire by the Supreme Chancellor--revealed to be the reigning Sith Lord Darth Sidious and the true mastermind behind the orchestration of the Clone Wars. And by no means would it just be Tano and her comrades that are horrified and enraged at kindly old Sheev's deception; the Separatist leadership would be equally, if not even more livid at Palpatine's betrayal and always-there intent to dispose of them once they served his purposes. For those among other reasons, I imagine that both Republicans and Confederates alike would be united in cheering on the Rebel Alliance and the Hero With No Fear's son, Luke Skywalker.

Do not forget his sister the rebel princes, i wonder how she reacts seeing herself as his sister, daughter of the man that was a major part in destroying here adopted home world.

In a word, mortified. Additionally, she'd also be horrified to see that Alderaan wouldn't be the only planet destroyed by superweapon-wielding madmen (as seen in the First Order's use of Starkiller Base to obliterate the Hosnian System).
