So, Captain, did you hear this rumor before you wrote your story?

Based on that, it sounds like the EU is being ignored. Which can sorta be good because as Captain said, the best stuff is from BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin), but there is this entire base of story lines that we've been following and taking as how the Star Wars universe continued, and now it is officially changed. It can be treated as an alternate universe, but I don't follow alternate universes well if the precede what is considered to be canon. I'm sure I'll love the new movies but it is going to be weird forgetting about Jacen, Jaina, Ben, Mara, Corran and the rest of the gang.
