Rogue One is not canon. :) (Off-Topic)

My first grown-up chapter books were Thrawn Trilogy, Shadows, Truce at Bakara, and my favorites, the X-Wing novels. They are so hard-wired into my brain that they'll always be canon. Dark Forces and Kyle, Knights of the Old Republic... All canon!

Because the only canon that matters is what stories resonate with you. And hell, this stuff WAS canon for twenty years (and they're still making new TMG ships based on them). If something WAS canon and then it isn't, then "canonicity" is worthless.

So in forty years, when Commonwealth Creative Studios buys Disney, they may say Rogue One isn't canon, and make new things. Again. And the cycle will repeat. :)
