You mean, copy exactly what the same company did with Marvell, the most successful and profitable film franchise in history? You didn't think that those movie plots were original did you? Infinity Gauntlet is from the 70s.
- gamblor956 8y agoMarvel comics are all cannon...And Disney acquired Marvel after it had a history of taking its decades of comics and turning them into movies. The Star Wars EU was not cannon. It was glorified fan-fiction. More importantly, with Marvel there was no need to maintain historical consistency since the comics themselves were continuously rebooted and retconned over decades. With Star Wars, there is only a single continuum.
- thrower123 8y agoStar Wars EU was canon until the Disney purchase. Lucas had to approve everything, and there were efforts to maintain consistency. I'll never be convinced that Thrawn wouldn't have been a better storyline than this complete rehash.

The story begins after Thanos already has the gauntlet and has already used it to kill half the universe... because he has a crush on the cosmic embodiment of Death and wants to impress her. I'm glad they didn't film that, it would have been stupid.
