PSA: don't believe anything you read about the #GiveUsMoreLegends campaign. Star Wars related media is smearing us hardcore right now.
#GiveUsLegends and give Credit where Credit is due. There would be no Quinlan Vos without the Expanded Universe. #TrueSWCanon Trivia: Quinlan’s Jedi Master was Tholme. While on a mission with him, a young Quinlan discovered the twilek girl, Aayla Secura. He would one day become her Jedi Master. His wife, Khaleen Hentz, he met while acting undercover to infiltrate Dooku’s dark Jedi allies. She stuck with him no matter which side he seemed to serve or how close he came to the Dark Side. Their son, Korto, was given the same name he used undercover.
She leaned down and plucked a few pebbles from the shallow water, then threw them one by one into the center of the river. In seconds, the strong current erased all ripples, all signs of the stone's passage....In the end, was that all the effect her life would have? She wanted to do something significant, not vanish without a trace.

The Rebellion to save the Expanded Universe
I have some responses to this: http://www.theforce.net/v3-story/frontAnger_Leads_To_Hate_Inside_The_Movement_To_Save_The_Expanded_Universe_160167.asp
There was no writing on the wall for the end of the EU because George Lucas had already repeatedly said there would be no Episode 7.
there is no way that an Episode 7 would justify demolishing the Entire Old Republic error featured in the video games.
Even if they did not use the so called "legends' for their movies and stories, their is no justification for chopping off those stories off. Not only uncontinued, but not even finished. How did Vader escape Starkiller? How did Jaden Korr's peculiar resurrection work out? How did Ben Skywalker deal with Vestara Kai? Are we running out of paper and ink in the world that they can't even continue these stories alongside the others?
We are not ignorant of the way Disney works. What we DO know is they have betrayed Walt Disney's ideas, for he didn't even believe in sequels. Walt Disney told stories for entertainment, family value and not just profit.
We know the only way that we'll have any impact to to impact those profits. They can claim all they want that Save the Clone Wars and We Want Leia campaigns made no difference, that the execs never noticed. But then, are the execs doing their own research? Not likely. They make decisions based on money: and if we who have spent small fortunes on Star Wars all our lives suddenly stop spending, it will be noticed by someone. They'll wonder where the money is. You don't profit off a franchise by alienating the people who have spent the most on it. Casual fans en masse may spend a lot on the movies, but in between the movies they expect money to come in from books, toys and other products. And casual fans don't buy them en masse, collectors do. Die hard fans do. Kids? Well, there parents do, but for many of those kids its a fad and the money will fizzle out.
And if seige tactics are considered a weakness, consider this: individually we are ignored. But en masse, we prove we are organized...which may still be ignored until the profit margins show we are not just talking. We are putting our money where are mouth is. We are the die hard Star Wars addicts who flat refuse to buy from Disney. Addicts Disney. Congratulations on curing addicts.....who will never buy from you again.
Do we have people using military terms? Of course. Star Wars itself began with a rebellion. We are quoting Star Wars itself, line for line. We know it by heart, we don't need to look it up. Do people veer off subject on the posts? Of course. Do people forget to be polite? Unfortunately yes. But that does not make the facts any less true. And the fact is, even if we don't like having our stories over written, we might be far more kindly disposed if we knew Disney still had any sense at all: continuing the Expanded Universe stories even alongside would only profit them more.
"The more you tighten your grip, the more star systems will slip through your fingers" ~ Leia to Tarkin, ANH
The more Disney tightens its grip and refuses compromise, the more money and goodwill it loses. And that makes no sense at all.

Han Solo : The Paradise Snare: a wonderful EU book on favorite Corellian Smuggler's Origins
The Paradise Snare by A.C. Crispin My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is a fun story that lures you in with trivia about Han’s past: and questions that may never be answered. This starts when he’s a teenager with flashbacks to younger, so he isn’t yet the Han we know from the movies. But we can see hints of how he will end up on that path. His early childhood explains a lot: from learning to speak wookiee (it’s not what you think) to his look out for number one philosophy. But he still has big dreams of respectability. We see his creativity in trying to escape his past, his determination, and even how he resists the occasional idealistic impulse. We also meet some interesting new characters: the t’landa t’il, cousins of the Hutts, Bria Tharen a ‘pilgrim’ at the religious colony Han flies for to enhance his skills and a great look at the catlike togorian species by way of his first furry frenemy, Muurgh. All play a role in getting Han to his eventual goal: the Imperial Navy Academy. His adventures begin here. This is part one in a trilogy. The only bad thing? If Disney chooses to do movies they may overwrite this. That would be a big shame as we have lots of room for more Han Solo between his teen years and the time he joins the Rebellion without that. And I would love to see more of Muurgh and the togorians. View all my reviews
Han Solo at Stars' End by Brian Daley My rating: 4 of 5 stars I loved every minute and have read it several times. This is a real adventure, with Han and Chewie dodging the law for profit, only to find themselves dragged into a confrontation at the side of idealists. You get hints of the idealism he once had (and will again) and how it turned into a cynical view of the universe. Han is totally in character and this is one of the few books where you get to see him in full smuggler mode. Lots of excitement, impossible situations that only the reckless, determination and creativity of Han Solo can reveal. It's also one of the earliest books to offer clues on how Han and Chewbacca team up and how far they will go to protect each other. Any movie that tries to remake Han Solo's story will seem empty without these awesome adventures underpinning them. View all my reviews
Jedi Wisdom from the EU: on opponents
The wisdom of the Jedi lasts throughout the ages.
"...when I kill, I only win a fight. It's a small, small victory. There are greater battles to be won- battles of the heart. Sometimes, with patience and reason and by setting a good example, I have won more than a fight. I have turned my adversary into a friend. ~ Qui-Gon Jinn to a 12 year old Obi-Wan Kenobi ~Jedi Apprentice #1 Rising Force by Dave Wolverton
...
"I've been in many battles and yes, I've had to kill. But I've learned from the light side of the Force that it's better to do everything in my power to ... turn a situation." Luke "But surely a nightsister or anyone else seduced by the dark side would not hesitate to kill you." Tenel Ka
"Exactly! ... Those who use the light side do not believe in the same things as those who use the dark side. But we can only demonstrate our differences by acting our beliefs. Otherwise, we're not so different after all." Luke
