Reminder that Star Wars died the moment they erased the EU

The EU died with New Jedi Order and Chewbacca. Didn't care when Disnet burned the corpse.

EU sucked balls. It was glorified fanfiction, merchandise designed to milk desperate nerds. Its fanbase was merely a fraction of the movie audiences. Completely irrelevant. Star Wars died when they raped the original movies with the sequels. That's what matters. Not a bunch of retarded crap 5 people total in the world have read, such as Emperor somehow returning, Luke falling to the Dark Side, and a bunch of discount Dark Elves from another galaxy, who are ackchyually immune to the Force and lightsabers, invading and killing trillions.

Mostly nothing of value was lost. They should have made a Dark Forces movie and not Rogue One. Just blend the steal the Death Star plans first mission with the rest of the plot about the dark troopers.
The EU is like a buffet of content and itโ€™s mostly shit.

The EU was never canon, it was just fan fiction that stays being fan fiction, with or without Disney.
Funny how there are people who think a roaming empire of force immune lizard people is somehow better than the sequels, and not trash too.

I like a lot of EU and Canon material. Marchion Ro is one of the best villains in the entire universe.

Normies don't even know it exists, that's why. Fact is a lot of the elements especially some of the edgy shit and the fanservice sith girls appeals to that audience just the same. It would blow Trandor away. Believe that.

The main crime is that they still mine the EU to rip off stories they like but also don't have to bother researching or remaining consistent with the rest of it. Do one or the other, but saying the EU isn't canon and then borrowing from it is bullshit

Maybe it's for the best. I'd rather never see Kyle again than have him be in some DEI propaganda product.

Star Wars never died. It ended after Revenge of the Sith.

Fuck all that. It's the six original films and that's it; that's the entire story.

Yes, and that's why it's based. I can take what I like and disregard the rest.

They really fucked up with the Yuzhaan Vong, they should've been like the Tyranids/Zerg/Necromorphs, just an unstoppable force of Lovecraftian space horror but instead we got lizardmen from Warhammer with bio-spaceships.

JJ and Rian Johnson ruined it.
but mostly JJ because he set up the worst starting point you could. Character assassination

EU had its moments but man did they fuck over the next generation badly. It handled the OG trio mostly fine though up until dark nest. The next generation is a fucking joke though.
>Jacen gets his character assassination
>Jaina is a boring character that married into an empire that will later kill the Jedi again
>Anakin is made into a joke character, the writers thought the idea of making another โ€œAnakin Skywalkerโ€ evil was a brillaint twist so they killed him off and handed the redundant arc to Jacen instead
>Lukeโ€™s children are all irrelevant despite him being the fucking main character for so long
And the funny thing is, that whole trilogy was also just as unplanned and involved a redundant retreading of another evil skywalker as the sequel trilogy.

Not sure how to feel about it. On the one hand it would be extremely silly if the sequels had to be beholden to everything that was written in the EU. But on the other hand to just erase all of it seems over the top. I think they should have handled the EU like Lucas and just overwrite it whenever necessary, but as long as something doesn't interfere then leave it alone.
