Which, yanno, sucks.
I don't fully get that. Like, if you enjoy the books, they're still on your shelf, right? If you like the comics, they're still in your longbox. George Lucas can't take them from you, or make you stop liking them, or make you think they didn't happen if you want to think they happened. The only thing anyone can do is not make movies about them, which they could still choose not to do even if the books and comics and whatever are canon; so how does it hurt anyone?
By "sucks" I mean this:
No, it doesn't remove their existence or anything. I didn't mean "sucks because my view on the Star Wars universe has become secular".
I meant more: Sucks that these writers, game makers, content creators, etc worked so hard to keep it going, made so many awesome things that people loved, all on the assumption that Mr. Star Wars was on board with it...and then in the end he comes out and says "Yeaaaaaaah I dont know any of those guys and didn't read any of that. They dont count."
Ouch. Right?
To be a Star Wars fan getting paid to write and design Star Wars stuff, to help flesh out the universe, and then in the end the ICONIC MOSES FIGURE OF STAR WARS says: "Didnt read it. Dont care. It doesn't count."

In a way, the true validation that you created something RAD is whether or not Disney keeps it. Like Thrawn or KOTOR.
