Don't get me wrong, some of it is alright. I like Battlefront, Empire at War, The Thrawn Trilogy, Shadows of the Empire, and The Force Unleashed (sort of). Asajj Ventress is one of the few EU characters I actually like. But what I really hate is how they try to incorporate all that Marvel comics garbage and Ewok cartoons in. Ewoks have rainbow bridges, trolls, magic, HORSES, the hideous season "kings" that look like they belong in some public domain cartoon for 5-year-olds. Marvel comics have another other Death Star, ugly ships, stupid stories, JAXXON, and generic, unrecognizable appearences for everyone but Vader.

Then there's half the other stuff. Palpatine has "eyes" and "hands"... Mara Jade wasn't as bad as the others, but why would he have a bunch of mini-apprentices? Vader has them, too. Warlords fighting over what's left of the Empire, two three-eyed mutants who claim to be Palpatine's children, The Death star II is also IG-88, every background character has an elaborate story, and contradictions everywhere. Ackbar dies, Mon Mothma dies, Chewbacca dies, there's some ugly freaks called Yuuzhan Vong who "terraform" things, the Sith still exist, Palpatine is reborn as a bunch of mannequin-clones, The Empire never goes away, there's plenty of angsty villians, and despite the main characters being 70-odd, they still go on their amazing adventures.
