Two hours of a slowly ageing Ewan McGregor tipping sand out of his boots is going to be pretty dull.
I'm sure they'll use it to retcon some of the inconsistencies between the original trilogy and the prequel trilogy.

Everyone just assumes he never left that planet during that time. He could have in an emergency...Two hours of a slowly ageing Ewan McGregor tipping sand out of his boots is going to be pretty dull.
...What, they didn't like the Book of Henry? I hear it was an unmitigated disaster of a movie. Haven't seen it personally yet since its release this side have been.... postponed indefinitely which can only bode well for its quality. /sarcasm.
Even though the Jurassic World killed it at the box office, it wasn't the bestest movie ever, not by a long shot. Probably, the producers lost all trust in the guy with the bombing of his latest film.
Yes! Now rest assured the quality will be as great.Well, can't say it's too surprising: Abrams is back in the seat for Episode IX:

Ummm.......wow. Quick and dirty assumption that is probably way off:
I feel like Kylo might go to the light side. He's conflicted. Punching things out of anger because he doesn't know what to do, emotional when he had a chance to shoot Leia's ship down (and probably won't) and teaming up with Rey. Hmmm.
Edit: not punching walls, smashed his helmet. Even more interesting.
He won't kill Leia, there's no way they would do that after he killed Han. Now, she will probably still die but not by him. Which, would be another reason for him to deflect after he realizes how much he still cares for her.I was thinking the opposite. Killing Leia and bringing Rey over to the dark side. All of which adds to his internal conflict and sets up Episode IX to have Luke seek Ben/Ren out to bring him and Rey back to the light and kill Snoke.
Episode 7 follows, maybe a bit too closely, how A New Hope unfolded. What i've seen and read about The Last Jedi leads me to think it won't be all that dissimilar to Empire Strikes Back - ie the Rebels get a kicking. If that's the case, Episode IX will round things off in a similar manner to Return of the Jedi. IMO.
Those are two disparate shots at the end of Kylo and Rey. There's embers falling around Kylo and we see Luke's hand rising through the ashes of the burning building before that. He's not offering his hand to Rey.Ummm.......wow. Quick and dirty assumption that is probably way off:

"... canonical Star Wars extended universe ... " what do you mean by that. Clone Wars, Rebels, Disney sanctioned novels and comics?
It is interesting, loved the scene when Vader comes to know the surname of the young X-wing pilot that destroyed the Death Star. However, some scenes were depicted in a much too violent way, I don't think consistent with the movies. I am thinking of a particular Mos Eisley scene with Bobba Fett, but there are a few more, many of them related to the droids that travel along with Dr. Aphra. Do like the lovely doctor though, and her interaction with Vader is interesting, because Vader is Vader and that's something they do get 100% right.
I read the first Timothy Zahn SW novels in the early 90's - now known as the Thrawn Trilogy. They were really the first new licensed Star Wars material after the OT. Don't know if they're classed as canonical or not. I know Thrawn the character probably is now due to his appearance in Rebels, but the books go into stuff that probably clash with both the prequel and sequel films.
