According to the logic of a few users here, only the games, Halo Legends, and Halo Nightfall are canon. None of the books or comics or anything else are canon.

343 didn't say they weren't canon. Disney did.

You're ass is super mad.

Halo's EU is canon because they've been declared canon by both Bungie and 343.
Star Wars EU isn't canon because it's been declared non-canon by Disney.

You'd have to be pretty dumb to not be able to comprehend this.

Except, Disney wiped the slate clean, 343 have just been throwing out the bits they don't like.

You cannot "wipe the slate clean". They cannot just erase thirty years of established canon, it does not work that way.

But they did.

Seriously? Not even a like, nobody found this funny?

Well I'm going to bed smh!

lol how does it feel to know that the Precursosrs and your retarded neural physics are non-canon?

There's a reason why it's called EU, sure it may not connect to the actual story from the game but it gives a background on what was going on before the games, it's still connected to the universe, that doesn't mean that it's non-canon, it's non-canon only to the games because why the fuck should it be canon to the games if the books already told there story of what happened, the EU gives the background, same with Star Wars, that doesn't meant that it's not connected to the universe idiot.

As far as I'm aware, neither 343 nor Bungie has declared all of those things non-canon.

I never said anything about Bungie or 343, I was going by retard logic used by some of the people here.

Except it's not retarded.

Star Wars EU isn't canon because it's been declared non-canon. Since Halo's EU isn't under such a declaration, it doesn't carry over.

But Star Wars EU is canon. Disney cannot delcare all of Star Wars EU to be non-canon. There are obviously quite a few things that are not because the universe is so expansive. But this all comes down to the fact that Disney can suck a dick and what they say does not matter.

Except they own Star Wars

didn't Disney or something say the EU wasn't canon now?

It does not matter what the said. They do not give a shit about Star Wars lore, they only care about money. They cannot erase everything that is canon, that is nonsensical to even acknowledge them attempting to do so. They lost all legitimacy with the series with that act, and in doing so, made all future movies, '08 TCW, and Star Wars Rebels all non-canon.

I don't get what the problem is here... It's not like Disney are actually deleting all of the EU, right? They're just saying "we don't really care about it for these movies so we'll just forget about it."
I'm kinda lost here. What does Disney declaring it as non-canon actually do, apart from erasing the chance that it will be included in the movies? But then, if you don't give a shit about Disney anyway, what does it matter? Can't you just ignore these new movies and, to yourself, declare THEM as non-canon?

They own the franchise, so they can do what they want.
They could integrate The Lion King into it if they so wished.

You don't decide what is and isn't canon. Disney do.
