  1. The important thing here is that you didn't overreact. EDIT: I'm sorry that my opinions sicken you, but let's be fair, I was only explaining the way I view the EU. The entire spirit of the post being "Look at it however you want to" I hate to break it to you but Star Wars (unlike evolution) is a made up story; none of it actually happened. So if you end up preferring the old EU, consider that your canon, if you love the new movies do likewise. Here's a more accurate (and potentially more controversial) analogy: 1977 Han shoots first. 1997 Greedo shoots first. Who shot first? That's up to you.
  2. I think I'll throw how I'm going to view the canon from now on. I absolutely love the post-RoTJ stuff and have always considered it gospel as far as canon goes (I mean come on, Legacy of The Force was ridiculously good). Same goes for the Old Republic era (Exar Kun, Revan, TOR etc) Currently I'm having a "last hurrah" with the post-Jedi works; the games, the books, the comics, due to the fact that I prefer a single cohesive vision of the universe. This might not work for everyone but it's my way, and it works for me. As far as the pre-RoTJ works go I'm going to wing it, consider everything canon until the new trilogy or new EU works conflict with those stories. In the end I don't think it matters so much what other people consider canon, it's up to each individual fan to choose. Hell there might be those who choose to ignore the new trilogy altogether and keep the Thrawn Trilogy, the Vong War, Caedus' downfall and the Legacy era as "their" canon. For those complaining about the new trilogy mucking up the post-Jedi EU works I say unto thee: Farfeik! What is wrong with you? For years we've all been clamouring for a sequel trilogy and now we've not only been granted that but we also have Hamil, Ford and fisher returning. This is beyond my wildest expectations. To me the post-Jedi EU is played out, there's nowhere for it to go in its current state. The fact that after Fate of The Jedi there's nothing until 100+ years later compounds this fact. It's nice to have it all wiped clean and a new set of stories emerge. Will we ever see the likes of the Vong War and Legacy of The Force again? I hope so, but more than this I hope that the new stuff surpasses the old. Sure I have a soft spot for the Caedus arc, but some sacrifices are necessary. (Plus Adam Driver looks a helluva lot like a certain Sith lord to me, so there's a glimmer of hope.) TL;DR: Don't get your panties in a bunch over this, enjoy what you want to. I'm sure the movies will be amazing.
  3. I'm a massive fan of Steve Blum ever since I heard him voice Vincent in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children/Dirge of Cerberus, I personally can't get enough of the guy. That being said I can understand how it would wear thin with some people. I personally would like to see more of Simon Templeman in the game, guy has one incredible voice. For anyone wondering he voiced Darth Skotia (Inquisitor story line) and Grand Moff Kilran. He famously voiced Kain in the Legacy of Kain series and has made at least one appearance in every Bioware game I can remember in recent years.
