I’d say it's like King Arthur now, which is fitting because that was one of its biggest influences. And just like Arthur, there's a confusingly large amount of conflicting storylines and canons to chose from

>Letting someone else declare what's cannon inside your own imagination
ngmi. I regularily declare things non-cannon in books or movies when they're incongruous or obvious mistakes, and declare cannon whatever I want to add to a universe, like Event Horizon being a WH40k prequel.

Stover's Episode 3 novel.
>And so it is that these adults across the galaxy watch the HoloNet with ashes where their hearts should be.
>Ashes because they can’t see two prismatic bursts of realspace reversion, far out beyond the planet’s gravity well; because they can’t see a pair of starfighters crisply jettison hyperdrive rings and streak into the storm of Separatist vulture fighters with all guns blazing.
>A pair of starfighters. Jedi starfighters. Only two.
>Two is enough.
>Two is enough because the adults are wrong, and their younglings are right.
>Though this is the end of the age of heroes, it has saved its best for last.

Imagine being that little droid getting its feet tortured in Jabba's palace. No one coming to save you. Complete helplessness. Your whole existence - everything you feel - determined by a pair of positronic sadists.

I quit at the story about the dancing girl who gets eaten by the monster. There was just something about trying to have a tear-jerker with a cast of big rubbery aliens that I couldn't take seriously. Maybe I'm too mundane, IDK
