Hey it's his story and I know there are other of hundreds of writers out there with their own story, but it isn't true, cause George Lucas invented Star Wars, not those other writers, so whatever he writes is cannon. Why should he care what the other writers write about if it's his story, it's just his right to write whatever he wants to write....

right....lol

I see your point. I just don't like it when people say "It's Lucas's vision" as if Lucas is some kind of ultimate storyteller who can do no wrong. It seems like Emperor's New Clothes Syndrome to me.

I can understand you don't like it...believe me...there are several stories I really like...but I can't consider them to be real or what they call canon cause they get in conflict with what George Lucas wrote

But they can change it..it seems for example

Before episode II...there was the story that Owen Lars is some kind of brother of Obi-Wan...now it seems he's Anakin's halfbrother...so they changed a small detail...and now say that Obi-Wan also has a brother called Owen...that's all...this is EU now...in my opinion everything that is EU is canon as long as it doesn't interfere with what George Lucas wrote. He created Star Wars and I respect that.

Which of these two visions is the more canon: Ki-Adi-Mundi being appointed in the Council and NOT made into a Master (source unknown) or all people ever appointed in the Council be made into Masters if they were not Masters at the time of their appointment, except Anakin (ROTS)?

The second one seems to be more true now altho I'm a little doubting cause I also thought for a long time ki-adi-mundi was also a knight in the first one but I think the source is EU so it's not canon...

Its very hard to belive that Ki Adi is a sex machine since he is so boring he has 4 wives 7 kids all killed during Battle of Cerea. Ki Adi cant be a sex machine he too old and boring

That, and he has a life and doesn't want to spend years crawling through every little detail every produced by authors.

I'd've thought that he would pay attention to what people are doing 'in his playground', but then again, seeing how sloppy his filmmaking and attention to detail is, I think it's probably safer to say he either doesn't notice, or more likely, just doesn't care...
