I dunno, maybe if you saw the original Star Wars trilogy as a child, you could be surprised to learn in this century that there’s no internal consistency in the Skywalker saga. Those of us who were adults in 1977 were already used to space movies that made no sense at all, but we went nuts for the humor and special effects anyway. Suspension of disbelief and all that.
However, most of the pictofacts in this list at Cracked have to do with even weirder facts from the Expanded Universe of novels and comic books. After reading them, you’ll no longer be puzzled at Disney’s decision to declare all that alternate media non-canon.
