Some of these are a stretch, imo
- So, no mention of Reservoir Dogs? The perfect ending is canon.
- That Kingdom Hearts one is more like reaching on their tiptoes
  
  During promotion of the game, they tried to say it was going to be canon. But I think it got misconstrued by PR. I think the intention was that they wanted the movies of the pixar worlds to be canon to kingdom hearts, not the other way round. But they didn't state it as such.
- Saw: The Video Game [Saw's Creators Contributed To The Game]
  
  I don't see how this means it's canon to the film franchise.
The "Star Wars Timeline"is about as straightforward as the Zelda timeline.
- The current Disney timeline is very straight forward, what you on about
  
  I've read the books, played the games & seen the things that have been "removed" from canon, but are still referenced. The fact that you had to state "Current Disney Timeline" shows that there are multiple, and the current scatter point happens in a retcon.
