What if Disney altered Star Wars canons? A question I just thought of us what if they changed TOR and made it completely different? This would be shocking. But they have the power to do so, so what do you think? You can also discuss other Star Wars canon and uncannily things here.

A reason Disney might alter it is because maybe they have a cool TOR movie but they need to alter the timeline.

I would fucking cuss Disney out on youtube, then tell everyone to do something like that so all the star wars fans would unite to cuss Disney out.

Well TOR is run by EA not Disney and Disney does not own EA or Bioware.

Disney just can't buy companies it has to be sold... And EA is one of the most successful in the world they are not selling anything EA is only a publisher they own ALOT of different Devolpers.

Oh awhile back one of the Devolpers confirmed nothing would happen to TOR and Disney has not interest in the era.

What if Disney didn't involve TOR characters from the games and instead made new ones... But they're from the same time. And they also made a new story too. That would be breaking the game's canon to Star Wars, yet not using their characters or ideas.

They would have to set it in some other time which they could since the SWTOR is only about 25 years of canon.

I think disney or whoever could just make a spin off based on TOR or something...

Yes a spinoff but they can't overwrite the existing game without going through EA if they could get a agreement they could. Disney has teamed with EA for future Star Wars games but Disney is not exactly there bosses either.

Two TOR continuums. Way too confusing.

But for characters like Malgus who live for over 50 years, what if they made a movie that took place when he was alive but not during the SWTOR era in the games? Then wouldn't that be like erasing his character?

Because technically if EA only owns 25 years if SWTOR, then would that possibly be legal?

They own all of the in game canon not just the 25 years but most of it happended between when the sith returned till the war was over that's what SWTOR game is about and that's about 25 years but there is more they would also own. Why don't you just go read the entire copyright....

I need to get my Canon straight, there's been two recent announcements about canon from Disney one saying only TCW, OT, and Prequels and future games are considered canon. But one says due to EA + Bioware being a part of Disney and Star Wars means The Old Republic is Canon. So does that mean, Darth Bane books non-canon. TOR is all non-canon or canon? Darth Revan never existed, neither did Darth Nihilius or the Great Hyperspace War?

Yep, Darth Revan isn't canon, TOR & KOTOR aren't canon and anything put into a Star Wars comic isn't canon (effectively). The only things that are really canon are the Films, future games and TCW... Another retarded move made by Disney.

He is still canon, however the only things that are canon about him are the things mentioned in TCW episode where we see Darth Bane (which is just that he created the Rule of Two). The comics he is in are all non-canon.
