The old EU was just unwieldy. I couldn't get into it. I actually tried to read some wiki logs on characters and events. The entries were novel length.

This so much. Immediately after ROTJ, soul-sucking aliens invade, then an orange-uniformed woman takes over the Empire, then a "Dark Jedi" almost becomes a dark side god, then a blue-skinned alien takes over the Empire, then Palpatine returns in a clone body, then Palpatine returns in another clone body, then a star-destroying superweapon shows up, then an alien from another dimension attacks, then some aliens from another galaxy attack, then some bugs attack, then one of Leia and Han's children goes dark, then a planet of Sith and a tentacled mind-controlling monster attack, then 100 years later the galaxy is ruled by another Sith army.

Well that's.... A lot of nonsense.... That happened. Oh my.

Why do I get the sense that it doesn't sound any less dumb in the actual books?
