    Thanks for the suggestions and corrections everyone. I've updated my file, but the 90 minute edit window is long gone for the original post. So, I suppose now I'll have to pester a mod every time the OP needs updating.

    Dp4m -- you forgot that there is at least one nest of gundarks (whatever those are -- something Luke may have been able to pull arms off of) on Ansion, though it is unclear if it is a metaphorical or literal nest.


    Sent from a loaner phone with horrid autocorrect. Expect lots of errors.

    I'm not entirely certain we can extrapolate from AOTC that the "nest of gundarks" incident took place in the Ansion mission. More like:

    "At some point in their relationship, Obi-Wan fell into a nest of gundarks and was rescued by Anakin."

    Do all the background characters in the films that where named in the EU keep their names or do they go back to just being nameless?

    By the way, Bane's orbalisk appearance almost made it into "canon" because George Lucas greenlighted it. Just something to keep in mind.

    The old system gave the labeling of people, races and objects in the movies G-canon status - I doubt that will change.

    Nope. Different adventure. According to "Dooku Captured," gundarks are only found on Vanqor (or at least, as far as Anakin knows).

    You should watch the episode. Gives a whole new meaning to Han's turn of phrase.

    Canon levels were (With the recent announcements, I believe they are not in use anymore) different ways of distinguishing the 'canonicity' of things.
    Here are the different levels from wookieepedia:
    GrandAdmiralJello I've got an updated catalogue now, would you be so kind as to edit the OP for me if I sent you the new list?

    Wookiee slaves appear in the new Rebels trailer, so I guess they've been recanonized.

    Also Prince Xizor is in The Phantom Menace.......as a Micro Machine. :p

    When I think of all this info lost, destroyed, I think of this scene....



    I so wish Disney would have committed less "bloodshed" upon the EU. There is so much potential/greatness in the EU that it warranted at least some of it staying canon. The star wars universe has really lost some of its "magic" and become a universe of less knowledge with the destruction of the EU :(

    It's going to be weird whenever I check out wookipedia and realize almost all the info on said website is non-canon.

    Cool (I think?). Now the question is whether Wookiee enslavement is an EU creation of from Lucas' notes.

    Ahh, yea. The Jedi temple guards used yellow. Where were the first yellow lightsabers first from? Yun, from Dark forces II?

    I'd forgotten about Zorba, thanks. I'm not sure about Xizor though, since he was just a plastic figure at the podrace.

    I'm not attempting to "backdoor" (as someone else called it) in any canon. This is a catalog showing the things that exist in the Universe within the confines that Disney has placed on Star Wars. Just because there is a planet named Qiilura, doesn't make Hard Contact canon. However, as I've said before, there is precedent to use the EU back stories, albeit with changes (e.g. Dathomir), which can be major or minor. And, since most of the people working on the new books and shows are those familiar with the EU, it would make sense that this process would continued (although, they might not do that at all, in which case, oh well).

    I do recall GL saying in the ROTS commentary that the Wookiees became smugglers in the dark times.

    I'm not certain this thread is the most relevant one to post this, but... I noticed that the fifth issue of the Star Wars Comic UK magazine has just been released. Technically, it's been published *after* the infamous announcement, so its content should be canon, right? ... right?

    The OT based comic strips in that UK magazine are pretty good actually, but I bet they haven't been written in consultation with the new Story Group at all, which already undermines the whole New EU angle of everything being under the same umbrella

    That's probably the thing that bothers/angers me the most about all this: it just seems they've made the big announcement while the details haven't been thought of. On the whole, it looks very clumsy and not quite professional.
