Im a little torn. I read alot of the books, and most of them werent great. Thrawn trilogy was the shit. But we knew that was gonna be non canon. But the comics. I actually liked. IMHO the clone wars comics were better than the show. The whole Anakin had a padawan felt forced, especially since they dont even mention her or have a reference in episode 3. So is Disney going to redo the entire prequel trilogy. As for people saying most EU was bad, fair enough, but lets be real. Can someone point out a piece of EU that was WORSE than the prequels? Im curious.

Yeah, I honestly can't think of a single piece of the EU that was worse than the prequels, except for the EU that was focused around the prequels and their characters. Heck, both Clone Wars shows are better than the prequels. The New Republic era EU was pretty good imo, there were some rough spots but even at it's worst it's not that bad. But even the prequels weren't all bad, there were some bad elements such as Jar-Jar and the poorly written romantic dialogue for Anakin and Padme, but the prequels were at least decent. Pretty much I like all of Star Wars, so it saddens me that they're destroying some of it.

gonna have to disagree. IMHO Jude Watson is VERY underrated, she wrote the teen books, but they are better than some of the stuff the "Pros" wrote. Legacy of the Force is one of my favs as its probably the only protrayal of Jedi Knight Dooku and Qui Gon the padawan. She gets the dynamics of the characters MUCH better than Lucas. But yeah I agree on everything else.  I think post OT era things started going downhill. From Yuuzhan Vong on forward. That saga was too long. and they started killing off characters for the shock of it it seemed.
