screams in the void said:

Random thought / observation …nearly every prequel rewrite or idea I come across still uses characters that were created for the movies that came out between 1999 and 2005 . Darth Maul , Grievous , Dooku , Qui Gon, etc . Be nice to see a rewrite or idea using original characters as well as the ones from the OT that would logically carry over …

I’m not a fan of soft prequel rewrites, but is there any constructive reason to completely eschew those characters? If your story calls for the inclusion of a Qui-Gon or Dooku-type figure, why not just use them? Filing the serial numbers off seems more like an exercise in contrarianism than anything else.
