Grey Jedi

This is based mostly on speculation on a movie that hasn't been released, but if Ep8 changes the common thought regarding Jedi; the widely touted, "Grey Jedi", would this new canon introduce a new faction tag? If so, this how they could introduce Revan?

Obviously this depends on a lot of unknowns but the limited information we have regarding Ep8 seems like this could be the way it's going.

As an extra, could any existing toons be listed under this potential new tag? Anakin? Mace? QGJ?

Food for thought.

    The star wars cartoon should not be included or referenced to modify "canon"

    The first 6 movies, at least, are kids movies. What does that do to your idea of canon? It's irrelevant, because if Disney says it's canon then it's canon, and Rebels is canon.

    But, this game isn't only pulling from canon sources. Nihilus and HK are from a non-canon video game, for instance. And a lot of the other characters are from "kids shows," like Barriss, and the other Ahsoka, and GK.
  • I think canon should stick to original 3 with its complete story
    Original movies are not kids movies, they have things some kids will like in them, there is a subtle difference
    If the movies were made for kids many of the plot devices would not be there
    Perhaps they wouldnt have been so grandiose, maybe instead of movies merely animated cartoon or mostly cgi (like the subsequent ...material)
    Considering what has been done since rotj finale, i question their motives
    Why even have "canon" at all? Especially if the people that decide had nothing to do with its creation?
    Damn Dr D is that even legit? I destroy u like a rank 1000

    Yes, actually, they are kids movies. Lucas has come out and directly stated that the original three were targeted for kids. Lucas sold the rights, Disney can do whatever they want.

    Yea man, you sold me
    I think whatever lucas originally intended is subject to revision without notice
