An EPISODE IV Prequel exclusively about the crew …

… of the Tantive 4 leading up to Episode IV.

Rogue One is redundant. Just play the first mission of DARK FORCES.

A George Lucas directed Jar Jar standalone. Seriously.

Along this train off thought, I’d be curious to see a Lucas created Whills/midichlorians kinda weirdo thing. I don’t mean whatever he had planned for the ST, just something that’s entirely about his conception of the force or whatever. Something really separated from the saga. Would it be canon? Who gives a shit. Would it be good? Ehh… but I’d be interested to see it.

How 'bout it’s just a TL;DR of the Saga being told by the Keeper of the Whills, reading from the journal and abridging it as he sees fit. Oh wait, I’m about to go Princess Bride aren’t I? That’s not what I meant to do.

Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, from the perspective of a random imperial onboard the executor.

The guys who have to drag off all those dead Captains and Admirals? 😉

Rogue One, but every character is an Ugnaut.

Bothan Spies - every Bothan is played by Sean Bean (in a Kind Hearts And Coronets stylee).

The story of the Cantina Band. From the formation of the band, to their success touring in different places in the Galaxy, to the eventual tensions within the band, and their break-up.

So, VH-1 Behind the Music, Star Wars style?

The Modal Nodes could mention their rivals the Max Rebo band.

Speaking of in-universe documentaries, how about a wildlife documentary? It could be centered on a particular planet. Basically what Fantastic Beasts should’ve been but for SW.

After what Sy Snootles did to Ziro the Hutt, she’d likely be as ruthless to anyone she thought stood in the way of her career.

How about a Star Wars version of Apocalypse Now? Vader is tasked with terminating the command of a high ranking Imperial Officer, whose methods have become too unsound even for the Empire.

The Sarlacc Trilogy

3-hour runtime per movie. All in all a 9-hour epic tale. Only one camera angle. Highlights: Day & Night cycle, sandstorms and every once in a while a poor creature stumbles into the pit.

And Boba Fett blasts out? 😉
I’m surprised the official site hasn’t done a live weathercam sort of thing along those lines. One for each planet in the saga.

That would be a scene for a Special Edition Cut of the Sarlacc Trilogy along additional digestion sounds. It does burping but what about farting? 😉

I would love to see a movie in Luke’s dream about his wife in the beginning of the TLJ novelization. Well, maybe like a 45 minute shirt. Like all of those tv episodes were characters wake up in a different world and it’s perfect and they’re trying to figure out what’s wrong and then at the end they have to accept the fact that this world isn’t real and he gets snapped back to reality when the Falcon breaks through the atmosphere

After being beaten and battered by prequel hate, I promise not to be that to the next generation.

Too sci-fi. It could work, but it’d have to be framed as the work of the Force.

More fantasy/spiritual than sci-fi

a Jaxxon and Amaiza Foxtrain spinoff would be intriguing - and certainly somewhat different to recent releases - though I think we’ll have to settle for the comics - doh!

A Godfather like thriller about the Hutts and their mafia syndicate.

THAT would be an offer, I couldn’t refuse.

“Vader! Hologram, now!”
