Lucas just came up with a tier system that made it clear he could contradict any of it at will if he felt like it. It's not so much that it was non-canonical. Puts on senate guard helmet and gets ready for the onslaught. It was something I thought about when I wondered why people don't think of beta canon for Star Trek in the same way as Legends for Star Wars.Īnd then it hit me, because if they held the same standard for beta Cannon as they did the EU then that would mean the EU and all of its contents were subject to not being canonical at all for all those decades regardless of how much content existed.īecause at the end of the day they simply weren't canonical, they were just stories licensed in the universe of Star Wars and with the Star Wars name. It's something most people can't wrap their head around or are even hypocritical about. I know one writer who loved Mandos had a strange hard on for portraying the jedi as a while as a crazy unemotional cult who cared little about people or the Clones. Even in the EU writers contradicted each other or had beef with their fellow creators so purposely sabotaged or change things creating a mess.

This is the sad truth which came about once The Clone wars or even back in the Prequels came, retconning or reshaping stories that cane before.

Their just works as a writer under the Star Trek license and can be made official or retconned by the publisher in a Product.

Same with how in Beta Canon for Star trek, not all the stories and novels there are official to the overall TV or movie canon. And were for the most part noncanonical unless stated otherwise in an official Locus Films product. As the majority of the EU's content, from comics to novels and games, we're only under the license of the Star Wars brand.

This means that yeah, as Lucas started many times, his vision of the sequels would have completely and utterly trampled over decades of ideas in the EU, and he would do so gladly.

That being the EU, was never truly canon, and that Lucas and his team reserved the right to retcon or change in any official Star wars production done by Lucas films. Also im going to note something about the EU that's a sad truth most fans haven't fully accepted yet.
