I don't see how this is anything but good. All I care about, really, is the new films. If they had to fit with old canon, that would have sucked, plain and simple. No creative freedom there. This is much better.

And new EU stories will not be 110% canon. The thing they're saying about every new thing having the same continuity for the first time is just them making the new EU seem better than the old EU. I imagine them having as much bearing on the new films as the old EU had on the old films.

And anyway, old EU stories will still be in print (they're not rewriting history like someone we know), and new content can and might still take inspiration from them.

Wins all around, I think.

 This. Completely and absolutely.

Darth Bane concept art for The Clone Wars:

 Kinda neat, but why doesn't it line up with the other images/toys/covers we've seen of him? 

I wouldn't have cared, but wouldn't a lot of people complain at great length if that had happened?

I guess GL thought the orbalisks looked silly.

Star Wars prequels were mapped out in 1981, only nothing like the way they turned out

Even with Lucas' anyone can learn the Force thing he still sticks to the idea that some people are inherently stronger in their connection to it than others

Just before one person is born with a strong connection to The Force doesn't mean that someone else can't develop a strong connection through their actions. One can be born muscular, but someone who isn't can become muscular by lifrimg weights.
