Does the Disney Star Wars canon need a new name?
Seriously, they could cut down a number of Legends vs. NuCanon battles, not all, but some, if they were to just retitle the current canon. I've always wondered if they were doing that simply because they think theirs is so much better that it's going to last forever. Maybe not as a brand name, but to withstand the test of time. But I now wonder if given the business realities they must be aware of, if that is simply not the case at all. Speculating on their motives is pretty hard to do, because given how culturally significant Star Wars is, they're basically politicians who always need to walk a fine line on what to say, shading, obfuscating, or even outright concealing the truth, but... nevertheless, I am now wondering, if a simple rebranding of the "current canon" would help. Might even help them to learn to define what it is they wanna do past corporate laziness. No, really, I just think it's no different than corporate welfare (why do the big corps need that? ).

What else could it be called than NuCanon. Then again I am already gotten used to calling it NuCanon so there is that.

Dreams? I dunno. Aren't they the optimistic liberals who say we need to look forward to the future, build a better world for our kids?

Well, it's half a decade old so it's not really New so calling it NuCanon is kinda like DC's New 52 after it had stopped being new for a while. Is that the official name though, or just something we call it?
