So to recap, the films, Star Wars The Clone Wars and the upcoming Rebels TV shows, future books, and games will be canon. Everything else is not

There, from the horses mouth, EU is nikon not canon.

It's over, deal with it.

Next topic!

What those tards say does not matter. TCW, Rebels, and new movies are not canon, that are part of a non-canon alternate timeline. The EU is canon, deal with it.

Which part, the time Palpatine comes back three times?

I can see how that's a huge slap in the face to long term fans though. I've been seeing star wars books in all types of bookshops my whole life.

There is a lot of shit in the EU to go over and sift through what is canon and what is not, I am not going to waste my time going over it. Disney cannot just erase the EU though.
Yes they can, and here's how they did it:

Step 1. Acquire rights to Star Wars
Step 2. Evaluate creative options
Step 3. ???
Step 4. Declare EU non-canon

Also, I'm gonna get flamed like no tomorrow, but I agree with Disney's decision.

The EU was an absolute mess because George Lucas didn't give a single fuck about it. Everything was constantly being rendered canon, non-canon, and then canon again, you couldn't keep track of anything anymore.

As long as Disney continues to draw upon the EU for inspiration, I support them, because it will lead to a more concise and comprehensive narrative.

Ya fuckin' ganderneck.
What's the point of declaring this anyways? Why not just make everything canon so long as there are no inconsistencies?

The EU is a mess riddled with inconsistencies and contradictions.

I'm sorry I mean to imply that everything consistent be canon. Anything in the EU that makes sense.

What if it's ambiguous? When there's a contradiction, how do you decide which is canon and which is not? There could be a variety of ways it could make sense. How are you supposed to decide, and who's gonna give enough of a shit to do so? And what authority do they have?

This way is easier.
They can now pick what they want to use in the new films and stuff, which will make those things canon.

Eh fuck all that. I guess they should have supported it through development. It must all be very nonsensical.


On a side note, I just learned that non-nonsensical is a legitimate, albeit redundant, word.

The canon wars were never canon in the first place.
