Should TCW be allowed under the default rule?

Seems like nearly everyone agrees that the 'Legends-only' default rule should at least include films I-VI + their respective novelizations. Now it's just a matter of determining whether or not TCW and its corresponding works(namely SoD and DD) should also be included under the Legends umbrella we are establishing here.

Please give a 'yes' or 'no' vote and state your reasoning why. After it seems like enough people have had the opportunity to weigh in, the votes will be tallied and the forum rule will be created.

Serious responses only, please. Sock/troll votes will NOT be counted unless your actual identity is disclosed(if not in the thread itself, then via PM to me.)

You should rename the title "TCW referendum"

And I vote to LEAVE.

No and it's simple, we already have material that details the Clone Wars from before TCW was even put forth, these including the various games, novels, comics, micro series and so forth. TCW is clearly in a separate timeline that makes more sense for the current canon than the old one.

TCW + the movies ( including the TCW movie ) + the movie novelizations ( including the TCW movie novelization ) + SoD + all other Legends materials.

Essentially, everything made BEFORE the DIsney buyout should be accepted as the default. Nothing made AFTER.

So if we deem TCW usable, how will its forthcoming season factor-into the equation?

Also, I do believe SoD was published after Disney purchased the franchise -- in fact, it might even be the first material produced under the new canon.

It's forthcoming season should be included imo.

Didn't know that. Should still include it under the default imo

Everything produced prior to the Disney buyout + SoD + new season of TCW + SWTOR content made after Disney buyout.

Stay, since it was created under George Lucas himself. Including the movies which are proper Disney canon, yet excluding TCW would seem like hypocrisy.

And what about the unreleased/unfinished TCW episodes? Weren't all of those blanketed as canon to TCW as well?

Yes. It was part of the Legends universe before and they even created EU material around it. TCW material released after the Legends/Canon split should not be treated as part of Legends however.

So basically you think S01-S06 of TCW(along with TCW film) should fall under the Legends umbrella, but no other TCW material should(ie. no SoD, no DD, no S07)..?

I'd like an actual reason as to why it should other than "it was in Legends before". It being brought into Disney Canon should mean that it shouldn't be considered Legends, the fact that it also had its own Canon instead of C-canon(which is where everything else goes) seems like to me a placeholder before it was pulled into it.

Even then, it also being with the movies it clearly isn't following what C-canon put forth prior. This clearly was some sort of retcon if you will, or shifting positions of material.

I agree with Zenwolf. It was canon to both universes before, it's canon to both now.

Who are we to decide what should be Legends and what isn't based on little gripes we have? We are mere apprentices in the ways of the force, while they are Lords.

I'm not sure you and Zenwolf agree.

Honestly as much as I like it no it shouldn't. Power scaling in that show and general power consistency are non existent.

I mean if we take it as usable we should now assume Dooku can lose to 30 pirates ect. It works much better with the new canon IMO.

I mean it's too grounded.

We have another show to cover the time between AOTC and ROTS. Whatever just my thoughts.

Yes, cause Maul wank.

Jokes aside yes it should be, it was created before Disney took over and Lucas himself had a hand in it.

Bad things happen when Lucas noses in Star Wars.

Which means it's only following his POV, which given he only considers the movies....which means then it really can't fall under Legends no matter how you look at it. That also said is why it works better for Disney only because there it's a clean slate.
