QUOTE(Callidus Thorn @ May 15 2014, 08:16 PM)  I figure Disney's throwing it all out, just because Lucas never liked it. But some guy actually tried to argue that because all the Expanded Universe stuff is licensed material, then Lucas must have approved it.
I facepamled really hard when that came up, and dug out the Wiki page that covers Lucas and Star Wars Canon.
Well, Lucy somethingorother, who was George's first Lucasfilm employee - his secretary...Was tasked with overseeing the EU...Making sure that nothing contradicted etc...At somepoint during the process, she must have given up and delegated... George did know what was going on...But had no real input...

George did know what was going on...But had no real input... In several interviews he's gone to some lengths to make clear that he doesn't even know what goes on in it, doesn't read any of it, and doesn't consider it a part of the Star Wars universe. He put someone in charge of keeping continuity, but beyond that he's had nothing to do with it. Edit: Later McB This post has been edited by Callidus Thorn: May 15 2014, 08:35 PM

Well at the time you were on, Mirocu was off, and I figured the two of you'd be bouncing back and forth like that. Seems he turned in for the night instead. On another note: Ugh. Just updated firefox, then had to hunt for an add-on to make it look like it did before the update
