A faithful adaptation of the Thrawn trilogy, with a few minor changes of course to fit with TFA’s time period.
I agree. Indeed, Disney only cares about money - so why worry about having a canon universe/continuity? Just make The Thrawn Trilogy as part of an alternative timeline. Instead of striving for a shared universe like Marvel and DC, just let various series and movies be independent of each other. Way easier really.
I mean with Lucas out of the picture, does anyone really care what the “true” canon is anymore?
