Yeah I always thought the EU was dumb. A bunch of 14 year olds writing ridiculous fan fiction and declaring it canon

It was. That EU trash was the only thing the Super Nerds could use to insult others by calling them "casuals". You're not a "real" SW fan unless you'd sifted through all of this boring garbage to find these few gems here and there. Not all of the EU was Thrawn Trilogy caliber. Most of it was terrible.

Eh, so far the "new" EU has been just as lame.

Hell, at this point the only worthwhile Star Wars *anything* was the original trilogy, and even that has been permanently tainted by the "special edition" being the "true canon" now.

Technically one part of the EU still exists. The Old Republic mmo is considered it's own universe and it's still ongoing with new expansions

The EU had some interesting stuff along with some of the stupid stuff. But I don't think any of it really needed to stay.

Pity that it's become so terrible.

The plot really took a fucking nose dive with the last two expansions, and they were never on the ball gameplay-wise. The only reason that thing still lives is because of all the cash shop whales, I don't think even the "Star Wars" brand name is helping to keep it afloat anymore.

I would play the shit out of that game if they'd put it on consoles

That happened under the direction of George Lucas so you'd have a hard time arguing it was ever not canon.

To be fair, comparing the rest of the EU to the Thrawn Trilogy isn't fair. The Thrawn Trilogy itself is better than the original movies.

Most of it was terrible.

Eh, some of it was really bad, some of it was extremely good, and most of it hung around readable.

There's one chick who wrote one or two books, and she turned Luke(at this point the closest thing to a god that he could be while still being mortal) and Han(When he was still badass) into sniveling, scared, crying bitches in their inner monologues while making Leia and Jaina the only people in the galaxy with any higher thought beyond "I'm scared". After her garbage books were over, the events in them were never mentioned again. Not once.

But then you have the really good stuff that blows the garbage way. Thrawn, the whole Vong war(Except Star by Star. That book was too god damn long. Great payoff though.), Dark Nest, The Jedi Academy Trilogy(Because Kyp and Daala.). Pretty much, any trilogy or event that spans at least three books is amazing, while one or two-offs are more hit or miss. Some are really good, some are really bad, some are just okay.
