The insane Jedi Master was also a clone and it seems cloning force users is a bad idea.  Luke was also still a little inexperienced as he had a very limited experience with Jedi Masters. That Trilogy also built on the end of RoTJ better than the Disney stuff. And created one of the most compelling Star Wars villains that is often mentioned in the same breath as Vader.  And Thrawn has returned to the new canon as well essentially the same character. He is a popular character.  They were also more original than TFA, a great example of making non force users relevent and not having to revert to 90s plot of new super weapon, new Darksiders of the week and a new even better super star destroyer. TFA gets criticized because it's almost a remake of ANH, but a lot if the characters are heavily reminiscent of old Legends ones and IX is seems to be borrowing a lot of plot points from Dark Empire. You can make a very good arguement for Disney Star Wars being creatively bankrupt.</blockquote>
