I shall make this into a Lego animated series

well i was going to comment on disney's new republic era but then i saw the video came out before even TLJ

I prefer the EU but not everything the EU has is as good as you make it out to be. Palpatine cloning himself and the Yuuzan Vong are 2 major things i dont like, I think the grisk from Disney canon is a better threat in place of the Yuuzan Vong. But theres no reason to bring back palpatine, itd be more interesting if the sith went to a mild in between of the rule of 2/ old Republic times. Basically having darkside force users go into a frenzy because palpatine wasnt actively supressing/ controlling ever force user that was born. Besides palpatine becomes too unbelievable by coming back from death, while the literal chosen one, just dies cause, weak armor. Id love a mara jade/luke skywalker Jedi order vs old imperial inquisitor/sith order but becauee neither side is burdened by the rules of the old orders we get to see new ways they use and interact with the force. Just my opinion tho.

Forget that these Disney fans trick themselves into believing the EU was "never canon" to George Lucas, the bottom line is that following that metric, by what is "canon" to George Lucas, Disney Star Wars would be even LESS canon to him than the EU was, as George himself admits "they weren't too keen to have me involved anyway." They threw out his story treatments. So it's pure hypocrisy on the part of the Disney fans.

I have found another inconsistency: In Expanded Universe Gardulla the Hutt was killed by Jango Fett. But in TCW she is alive.

Nice work.

57:00 in this sanireo im a guy who thinks unaversis with a flat earth are cool

I want to see Star Wars: Fall of the Republic get made if Disney decides to turn around their direction. I can see it be live action. Maybe it be on Disney+.

It was george Lucas idea to give anakin a Padawan and bring back maul

If only we knew how bad it would get 7 years later I still love this video, it continues to age gracefully and got me more into the EU!

If TCW wasn’t so popular would be considered a non-canon spin off.

Disney doesn't look at their wallets or prophets when trying to decide the future of Star Wars or any other brand that they own. They look at their agenda, and how badly they can fuck us all over and still keep gullible fools buying their products.

"So concerned, I wrote a letter." Little did we know that there was never any hope. Disney has completely destroyed star wars permanently, leaving only Legends as anything of value.

Lucasfilm killed Legends to do their own thing, yet they include aspects of it into 'Canon'. Do I smell hypocrisy?

Imagine if Disney went with the EU plotline for the sequels instead of what they made up. Actually they probably would have ruined that too. Seeing the real Thrawn and the Vong on screen would have been cool at least.

I see your complaint right off the bat, but terms like "basically" and "for the most part" inherently imply that there's something you're leaving out. This is debate tactics 101. You should basically seek to leave these words out if you're trying to make a strong argument, for the most part.

This video will stand as a legendary testimony, for the future star wars fans that actually will look beyond the superficial dressing of the tcw tv show. The fans who will read the books and find that what came before was better than what tcw presented to you as a child. There is a reckoning coming, a day where the divergence of casual fans and the actual nerds comes to the forfront of the fandom, and I forsee that the casual fans will walk away when they realize that they'll actually have to read a goddamned book.😮

It doesn’t even matter anymore. Filoni has his way and has blazed through canon. And yet the supposed fandom gets mad whenever anyone crticises either Filoni or the destruction of consistent canon.

I don’t understand why they couldn’t make new characters for the cartoon. What they should have done was create an average Jedi not seen in the EU comics. By doing that route there would have been no sort of continuity errors.

There was actually one standard clones in legends that had left Kamino before the events of episode 2. He wanted to live a normal life. Hawk was also similar to cut by being a deserter. I would say they are a rare type of clones that are rebellious.

1:02:53 but it wasn’t always “Disney” cannon. There are X amount of seasons done before it was sold to Disney.

26:24 Barriss’s fate is shown in tales of the Sith now.

23:13 def remember EU comic with the idea of maul coming back in 2005. Or rather surviving. And that lead to it eventually returning in the show and that’s a good thing. He was the best character in 1. Surely he deserved a returning.

16:50 I actually remember the chip thing being known EU thing way before TCW used it in the show. I don’t remember if it was comic info novel or video game material but by 2008 it was already well established that chips in clones brains were being used for order 66. Before TCW

Expanded universe over everything. Screw Disney shows, screw the sequels, screw TCW fruity ahh cartoon.

I love that you use SWTOR music in the background. Correct me if I’m wrong but I think that’s the Tython theme in the beginning

What are your thoughts on planets like Christosiss, Sereno, Umbara, and Ringo Vinda without 2008 clone wars being in Legends. Do they have a place in Legends still? Or are some of them just re-skins of Legends planets anyways?

At least nowadays, 5 years after this video was made, I feel like this has been reversed. That the legends community is the one with the loudest voice now and is bashing the Disney canon community. But as a legends enjoyer myself, I’d say that’s rightfully so Also to add on your argument on the discussion that “the EU was never canon”. I wanna say that for the record, it’s not that it wasn’t written by George Lucas that doesn’t make it canon, but it’s more of the fact that George Lucas openly stated multiple times that he never considered anything that wasn’t his work as canon. For example, even in the 2003 clone wars, he didn’t consider it canon because he had no part in the directing or the writing. This isn’t to say that I agree with him because his statements are honestly a little bit selfish, but I just want that to be said

They stole Trever Flume and Ferus Olin from the Last of the Jedi for the new Rebels series. Ngl even the hover skid scene chase was included. It's funny af

No, it doesn’t, but it fits well into disney’s canon.

all we want is for disney to acknowledge that legends is the true canon and that it is above disney canon in the hierarchy.

How can you win so many battles but still loses the war, well My friend learn some real wartime history and you will see. Start with the Vietnam war.

I personaly thought they had already pushed The Clone Wars out of leyends. I'm surprised they didn't. Well. If disney doesn't care, lets just make the change ourselves. If anyone asks us, The Clone Wars is just Cannon and not Leyends untill disney says otherwise. (And even if they say otherwise.)

47:46 Yeah, I don't think too many people would fault you for liking Adventure Time as an adult. It's one of those franchises that grew and matured with its audience.

We need more of Fordo, now more than ever.

as long as filoni is around ashoka will never die 🤦🏾‍♂️

i just miss when it was anakin and obi wan and no ashoka

everything about the 2003 clone wars is just better in every way.

#1 i would take ahsoka out in entirety there was no need for her character.

2003 clone wars is wayyy better than “ the clone wars “ i also dislike the change of giving anakin a padawan.

i’m looking to get into legends it seems better than cannon

*Ponder this plot hole: Kenobi says that he hadn't been called Obi-Wan since before Luke was born, when in the prequel, he's Obi-Wan when Luke and Leia are born. I don't see any contradiction there*

Star Wars Expanded Universe was great and Disney Star Wars was Terrible

I just want to take a moment to say how much I appriacte a true SW hero! Rare and few real SW EU fans! We miss a true Star Wars!

Well said.!

“Muh my EU material” the EU was written by 3rd rate authors while TCW was written by George himself. Legends was allegedly incredibly inconsistent, hence George did not even consider it canon.

all i see is 2 things. 1 disney wants to white wash star wars as they did with star trek and make it less hard for people to get into and pander to whom ever and 2. the lore od the base univser is freaking huggggggge and they dont wanna deal with that.... so basicalllly. its a corperate sith wanting all the control over what they deem is best and want to do as little work as possible for the most profit.
