Y-Wing bombing run on a Star Destroyer like in the X-Wing books? Check

Darth Vader absolutely wrecking everything in his path like in The Force Unleashed or Dark Lords of the Sith? Check

Starfighters completely smoking AT-ATs like in Isard's Revenge? Check (I am aware they're actually AT-ACTs in this film)

Suicide mission led by a tough as nails female to steal the Death Star plans, just like at the end of Rebel Dream? Check

Bizarre TIE variants that we'll likely never see again, just like most EU books? Check
Speaking of things like this... i so thought the Hammerhead was going to do an X-Wing game run through the control towers on the SSDs...
