Imagine if the entire EU is wiped out and considered non-canon, and due to that it's declared they'll do a new canon and the previous one is no longer relevant.<br /><br />Sure, there's many stories there that could still be enjoyed on their own merit. But this also makes the entire story of that old EU incomplete. And entire investment in something that is just left abandoned and not to be finished ever again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1900112836374418755.post-58268621722064830662011-04-25T20:01:44.812-07:002011-04-25T20:01:44.812-07:00Great post.

As a fan of many sci-fi franchises, I’ve been involved in more than one discussion about continuity and I am often gobsmacked at the importance some fans place on little details I don’t even remember.<br /><br />Cannon and timelines are great things, but personally, I’m not going to pick apart every story looking for plot holes or continuity errors. I just don’t have the time or the brain power. :)Gandergelfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07282534019040801974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1900112836374418755.post-36179669195000907152011-04-25T19:50:34.807-07:002011-04-25T19:50:34.807-07:00As fans, we have the freedom to chose what ‘counts...As fans, we have the freedom to chose what ‘counts’ to us, individually. - I agree with this statement by Club Jade. The main thing that has bothered me in the canon is the whole Satine/and Taria thing.Shena Tokalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17657993823328581910noreply@blogger.com
