EU fans still fighting the canon wars 10 years after the sale to Disney and a whole lot longer since the EU lore was thrown out by Clone Wars in 2008.

I’m a fan of EU, I’m also old enough and adult enough to understand it was nothing but tie in fiction. That came out of Lucas licensing. To pretend that it was ever going to be held up to the same level of a tv series or movie is just lying to oneself. Whether George ever considered it canon or not.

There is no Disney Lucasfilm, there is Lucasfilm. It’s the same company without George Lucas running it. Although it does make it easier to show discontent or dislike for the new stuff to call it Disney Star Wars and makes it easier to compartmentalize.

I do prefer the old legends canon over Disney’s expanded universe. See what I did there.
