I know, I know you're talking about Expanded Universe, but reading this secret, my head still kept trying to wonder what was up with the European Union.

I read a few of the novels way back and thought they were pretty cool extensions (and I also liked the TV movies - Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure and Ewoks: The Battle for Endor, whatever I was young). But even then, 80s and early 90s, the way that some people who considered themselves real fans behaved was alarming.

I decided I was mostly done with any new Star Wars stuff after I was disappointed by the Prequel Trilogy (I kept thinking it would get better or redeem itself in the end and it didn't, not for me). Given some of the developments in last ten years in both the canon and some parts of the fandom, I am okay with that decision.

So, in my head, the Original Trilogy, the TV movies (not the holiday one), and the first Thrawn Trilogy are my canon; the Prequel Trilogy is a sensationalized and distorted version of what actually happened, a based-on-true-events version, if you will; and everything after that Thrawn Trilogy is different timelines that I'm not really concerned about (though maybe Grogu, he's very cute, from the clips I've seen).

Wow, I guess I have a lot of feelings about this. Anyway, I get you.

The fandom is so divided. Generally everyone loves the OT (though there are some that dislike ROTJ). But beyond that, it is prequel fans vs. sequel fans vs. EU fans vs. OT-only fans. Say you like all of them and people seem horrified.
