That user was wrong.
And I am sorry, but I cannot and will not continue to explain that the official stance of Lucasfilm is that all EU is on the exact same timeline as the movies while you continue to ignore it.
I just can't do it anymore.
The EU and the films are not two different timelines/storylines because, officially, all EU is on the exact same timeline as the movies.
Your analogies about Spiderman do not apply to this situation because, officially, all EU is on the exact same timeline as the movies.
You say that you don't want to make up your own canon and want to know what the official copyright owning people say? They say that, officially, all EU is on the exact same timeline as the movies.
Again. Officially, all EU is on the exact same timeline as the movies.
One last time: Officially, all EU is on the exact same timeline as the movies.
