He's not alone. People who love the EU just can't grasp it mentally that no one really considers that stuff canon and that an artist is not going to really let shite some fat lard wrote 20 years ago stand in the way of the story they want to tell.

The problem is that the EU is massive: VERY massive. It includes books, comics, video games, and even the shitty Christmas special. You are going to see a huge backlash if major parts of the EU get retconned.

There are some stories in the EU that truly are amazing (like the Yuzan Vong). There are also some parts that are weaker (I didn't know about Palpatine getting resurrected ).

I agree that the writers won't let the EU stand in their way, but it wouldn't surprise me if they DID incorporate at least some of the better aspects of the EU.
