I originally didn’t like the idea of them bringing back the original characters as I didn’t want to see an old Leia as Carry Fisher didn’t really look all that great.

But then I warmed up to the idea and was expecting the new trilogy to be of Luke running the Jedia temple or something. And maybe his kids or something have a conflict that drove the new narrative for the new trilogy or something. That’s what I was expecting, but didn’t get anything like that. I think Luke was just wasted and would have much rather he not even have been in these new movies based on what we had gotten.

But back in 2012 or so, I was expecting to see a bad ass all powerful Luke running around kicking ass for at least 7 and 8.

Does anyone know what outline Lucas had for the new trilogy that he gave to Disney that they rejected?
