Topic	Yearly reminder: The Star Wars EU was never canon
K181 10/22/23 10:14:31 AM #13:	PeteyParker posted... It's not that the EU wasn't canon, it was that anything in the EU was given the caveat that it could be ignored should Lucas choose to do something that contradicts it in the future. There were even certain subjects that weren't allowed to be used for stories because Lucas wouldn't allow it. So everything in the EU was canon until it wasn't and then Disney came along and the "wasn't" happened for all of it. So it wasnt canon. The whole secondary canon nonsense was just a bone that Lucas threw to nerds to get them to keep buying books. Things were ignored, contradicted, and thrown out left and right from the EU every official release prior to Disney bought the franchise and ended the charade. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. <cite>K181 posted [p:976796591] in Yearly rem...
