...when we're talking about the fact that all Star Wars games have now been cancelled, the licenses are out on the market for any crap studio to buy them as long as they've got the money, and Lucas himself has flipflopped for the nth time as far as whether new SW movies will be made or not, and washed his hands of his "baby" completely, there's no way Star Wars VII will be anything other than even worse crap than I-III. You thought Jar Jar was bad? Wait until you see the Disney-animated shit characters Episode VII will have.
Also, it's more than clear that they shut down production of the Clone Wars because of this crap as well. Sure, you can't fit an endless amount of story between the movies II and III, but the way they ended it was shameful. Maul, Ahsoka, Ventress, all great characters, simply "disappear", no tie-in to Episode III and the later movies. Why would Ahsoka not resurface when Anakin turns into Vader? Makes no sense. Was Maul just discarded by the Emperor or what the hell? The series is T-canon, which comes straight after G-canon, Lucas' movies. It's more canon than anything else in the EU, and whether it's G-canon, T-canon or not, they clearly kept it in line with the movies throughout the series, so they should've ended those story arcs a little bit better.
But no. Lucas and Disney ruined that too. It's not like they can bring back any of those characters in VII, either. Sigh. Oh well.
