@Auspice said in Good or New Movies Review:
So none of the books written pre-Disney are truly the author's own creation. They're just putting someone else's story (Lucafilm) into their own words.
This surprises me, because (Lucas Quote here...)
"There's my world, which is the movies, and there's this other world that has been created, which I say is the parallel universe—the licensing world of the books, games and comic books."
"I don't read that stuff. I haven't read any of the novels. I don't know anything about that world. That's a different world than my world."
Which has always been weird to me because Quinlan Vos, Aayla Secura, the term "Coruscant", swoop racing, dual-bladed lightsabers, the planet Dac and the tension between the Quarren and Mon Calamari, Thrawn, etc all showed up BEFORE the prequel trilogy and they were all either in the prequels or the animated series.
So which is it, George? Either way he's quoted as not knowing anything about that world and doesn't give it respect, but to many, many, many people this stuff is Star Wars.
