What I am proposing is Disney, if they are willing to do so, creates alternate story arcs, much like what they do in their Marvel properties. When changes to an established story are made through a "re-boot" the old is not simply thrown out, but clearly defined as two separate entities.
This actually allows Disney to make money from a (potentially) expanding EU and another continuity without stepping on each others' toes, thereby doubling their potential profits, and opening up increased friendly debate amongst the community on the finer details of these universes.
To clearly define the boundaries of these two story arcs I am proposing:
A "Classic Era" or "Classic Arc" containing Star Wars 1-6 and the previous EU, plus potential expansions.
In addition there would be a "Modern Era" or "Modern Arc" containing Star Wars 1-6, The Clone Wars Animated Series, Episodes 7-9+ and any additional expansions.

I have been reading through the different visions for the galaxy that so many of you grew up with and love. It is clear that the stories forged decades ago still hold a deep place in our lives that deserves recognition and respect.

Seeing this grow makes me feel like these stories still hold a real place in our lives. I grew up with these books and the fact that so many of you feel the same way validates why I started this.

The Clone Wars Animated Series Seasons 1-5 should also be included in the "Classic Era"
I will never accept star wars EU as false!! The jedi are everywhere and starkiller is not going to be deleted he is a hero!! plus Boba fett is not dead!!!
I agree. I've read these book my whole life and Disney destroyed a bit of my childhood. Love these characters of EU. Especially Zahns. Disneys movie already looks like complete crap by comparison.
PLEASE keep the legends timeline alive!! I still need more mara jade stories regardless of the new films.
The old books are way better then the new stuff coming out. Why throw away decades of lore that everyone already loves?
EU for life.
Long live the EU!

Sounds like a sweet idea, don't know why Disney never did this in the first place
