I'm going to end this once and for all. The EU is canon. It's as canon as the films.

No, Adam, it is not. It is part of the Star Wars universe, yes, but it is NOT canon. Not G-canon anyway. (is that the right term?)

And the fact that I have to watch 4 hours of the Clone Wars cartoon and read 6 or 7 books just to UNDERSTAND what the hell is going on in the story is pathetic.
I'm sure they are enjoyable entertainment, but I am not going to waste my time with something that should have been explained in the PT films. I've never had this kind of problem with the OT.
