Aren't they just making their own extended universe?
I guess the books they've done so far don't go beyond the story established and just kind of fill in some gaps, like how Palpatine trained Vader. --- Just your bad luck... to run into me. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I remember my friend telling me about some awful fucking book where Luke joined an evil cult because he lost his force powers when a star died.
Also some bullshit story about how the droid that blew up in ANH was actually force sensitive and killed itself so Owen would buy R2D2 and Luke could fulfill his destiny. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Good thing you're an individual who can have whatever personal canon you want rather than a corporate tool whose boner depends on what Disney tells you to consider canonical.

IMO Disney literally had to kill off the EU.
For every one good thing the EU had, it probably had at least two or three stupid as fuck things. It's just easier to let people think KOTOR and Shadows of the Empire is canon if they want or until Disney decides to do something that invalidates it instead of having to try and explain or work around some stupid shit in the EU. --- ...

I wish so bad that KOTOR/TOR had been kept. It makes sense that everything post-ROTJ had to go for the new movies to exist, but I don't see why TOR had to go.

That is exactly how the EU always fucking worked.
IIRC there were Boba Fett origin stories long before Attack of the Clones came out, and they were thrown out in favor of the movie. I know people are pissed cause like Thrawn isn't a thing now and neither are all the other stupid little emperor clone plots and such, but come on those were never going to be movies anyways. But like when it comes to KOTOR and the like, unless Disney decides to do something that contradicts it (which doesn't seem likely in the forseeable future) who the fuck cares if they say it's canon or not? ...

It needed to die. The good stories are outweighed by tons of dumb crap and it was starting to get to Dragon Ball Z levels of ridiculous power scaling in terms of Luke himself and whatever villains would come next. Also, people felt that every single little thing in the SW universe must have a backstory and must be connected to everything else.
If you want to see how dumb the EU could be, watch this: Also, Thrawn wasn't that great. If he were created more recently people would be calling him the "Gary Stu" or whatever that he is. Finding military weaknesses of various alien races by just looking at their art was dumb. Pellaeon was more interesting. --- http://i.imgur.com/hslUvRN.jpg When I sin I sin real good. ...

Reminder that literally nothing in the EU was ever canon. Lucas just didn't really care about it as long as it didn't step on his toes. There's no loose canon, or some of it was canon, or whatever you liked was canon. The only things ever canon outside the movies were The Force Unleashed and the Clone Wars cartoon. Disney just clarified the canon when they bought it and I think the only thing decanonized was TFU because the second game blew.

To be honest, they could never have satisfied the EU fanbase if they tried adapting it. They're better off making their own canon.
