The prequels had so much potential..
I didn't find out until last year I believe but did you know that Grievous' cough was actually George Lucas' cough from a cold/flu that he had? Lol

Nah didn't know that
So what books are considered canon now? Wasn't most of the expanded universe cast aside recently because they wanted to do it in movies?
Yes, everything written before is now considered non canon. Only books from 2014 and on are considered canon now.

Ok, so for canon..
EVERYTHING that previously released including books, novels, graphic novels, comics, are now considered "Legends" and do not belong to canon. All of these are open game for creators to pull from and make canon. So any characters in Legends can at some point become canon.
As of this moment, canon is:
The six Star Wars films, the Clone Wars animated series, the Clone Wars animated film (I believe, correct me if I'm wrong), the Rebels animated series, all books released starting with "A New Dawn", all comic books released starting with "Star Wars 1" from Marvel.

Alright thanks looks like I got some work to do.
I need KOTOR to be be made into a movie. I wanna see Sith academies
Correct.
Jay, I don't even know what that thread is, or why it was made.
This one has been open for 3 years.

The good about the new canon material is it just recently started, we're only 4 books in, one season of Rebels in, and four different comics with the ltest issue being #4..so now is the time to start before it becomes truly overwhelming.
I agree, I hope they make a spinoff movie in the Old Republic. Can you imagine seeing Sith Army fighting Jedi? Mind would be blown.
I too saw this thread today and started posting in it earlier, but I think I'm going to direct my Star Wars posts in this thread.

Thanks. I would love to read the EU Non Canon stuff but no need to be confused on whats going on at this moment. Maybe later. Copping a New Dawn right now

Mine on the 8th! Haha nice. Happy belated man.
I started with the first one..A New Dawn. The story begins after Revenge of the Sith and before the beginning of Rebels.
In all honesty, the book does start out slow, it isn't action packed, but you really get to know the main characters from Rebels and you know their backstory leading into Rebels. Then there's Tarkin, Heir to the Jedi, and soon Lords of the Sith.
I do recommend in audiobook format, the music and sound effects alone are worth the listen!
Walter..
If you ever need info on the non canon, let me know. I can help.
I still hope at some point they use storylines from those legends in films, be it spin offs or tv shows, what have you. So much better stuff in those books than anything Lucas gave us prior. ****, the OG book trilogy got him to finally do the prequels.

I have it, but have not sat down to read it just yet. Will probably do so around the summer as I start building up towards December release date.

Cool lmk when you do, I'd love to hear what you think. Darth Plagueis is one of, if not my favorite character in the SWU.
5 more minutes for the Celebration panel!!
The music while waiting for it to start is quite lovely.

Darth Plagueis is incredible. Probably my favorite EU work. A lot of the book was incorporated into the new canon too.
