While the PT isn’t as great as the rest of the saga, a lot of us here do consider it canon and part of the full Star Wars story. So even though it’s understandable that some want to ignore it, please at least don’t make any changes that contradict it!

The PT did it first.

Examples?

Examples of what the Prequels changed from the Original Trilogy? You can find those on many other threads.

I’m sure there are very legitimate explanations for them.

Bear in mind that one of the main reasons that people are part of this community is because they really want to enjoy the prequels

That’s an awfully broad brush.

I’ll say. I couldn’t care less about enjoying the prequels. I’ve got rewrites for that.

It used to be a pretty big reason people came here though to be fair. It’s died out a bit in recent years I think though.

I found this forum looking for Dawn of the Empire (despecialized can be heard of everywhere else; you can find them easily without a spleen invitation). I was watching ROTS before the release of TFA and was thinking “there are things I like and many little things that are lame. I’m pretty sure with a few editing adjustments the movie could be far better… if I think that, 100% sure that many others did and have already done that !”. And there I found this forum after a quick google search (might have been fanedit.org first; don’t remember exactly).

I have plenty more. But now is not the time.

I’m sure you have time to regale us with the tale of how you came to the conclusion that TFA & R1 just couldn’t compete with the immaculate masterpiece that is ROTS.

Neither was then.

R1 cannot even compete with AOTC 😉 (my R1 review is somewhere on this forum, fetch it if you want, what you do with your little life is of no concern to me).

Now please stay on topic !

That is why you fail.

Explanations made after the fact to try and cover up the bad writing

Oh come on, Ady! You know as well as I do that having someone die in childbirth 20 years after writing that her daughter remembers her is poetic and rhymes or something.

In Chapter 19 of Star Wars: Bloodline (a CANON novel), in a voice recording Bail Organa addresses Princess Leia “not expressing much interest in knowing who her birth parents were.”

This means that in that scene in ROTJ, Leia WAS, in fact, talking about Padme, because Luke clarifies that he is talking about Leia’s REAL mother and the recording of Bail obviously is from before Episode IV, which means Leia would have had some form of conversation about the adoption with him FAR before this scene happened.

The point is they shouldn’t HAVE to try to explain it on a novel decades later. Why not just write the new movie to line up with the movie you made years before?

It’s easy to explain how Leia remembers Padme, without any outside material. It’s because she has the Force. Plain and simple.

That IS how the Force works. What I’m referring to are “Force visions,” aka An ability to see into the past and the future.
