That would be one way to go. But I think they’ve got two priorities to cover… for themselves rather than the audience I mean. Firstly they’ve got to establish the event movie again after watering it down so much. It has to be Episode X because that gives it legitimacy. It can’t be stand alone for the same reason. People have to be on board with the brand again before that ‘A Star Wars Story’ thing is wheeled back out. Secondly they have to recover from the mistakes of things like side-lining Finn and other characters. Which can’t be done if they cut ties to the previous movies. A lot of good will has to be regained (for commercial reasons) which means going down that road. Or at least that’s what I predict.
