But the extended universe is so huge, that they could just pluck one out and bam, film it.

They could save a whole bunch of time thinking up new shit, checking facts, etc. Just "that one there, that'll do" and bam, new movie.

Instead, they fuck themselves in the ass while pissing off a nation of nerds?

That's a Lucas move, not a Disney one.

I have a feeling they are going to bring those characters into the films in their own way and not fit it in to the books.

Just like your arguments.

And your tiny island country. :yes:

England is a tiny country on an island. Hence, tiny island country.

I've actually read a take on this whole thing that sets me more at ease.

Essentially, Geller paints this as the franchise finally getting an entity that has both the power to incorporate off-screen media into canon as well as the desire to do so. He's a little off-basis in how much attention Lucas paid to the EU (I've read interviews with authors where they described the sort of micro-management Lucas would get into during the writing process; it wasn't Big Brother, over-your-shoulder stuff, but Lucas definitely kept his hand in with a lot of the decisions, i.e. don't kill Luke, movie characters wouldn't do this, etc), but the fact that Disney is willing to continue putting out content in both the EU and the new canon is promising. I had also been under the impression that the EU was essentially done and over with, so seeing that it's essentially the Star Wars version of the Ultimate universe makes me feel a lot better about all of this.

What??

Isn't Great Britain the island? And the UK is Great Britain + Northern Ireland? So isn't the UK actually 1.1646 islands?

Might have ballsed that up but if you replace UK with GB my point remains true. Great Britain is just a name for a land mass and it isn't any sort of country or even a sovereign state (which is what the UK is)
