I’m not really focused on the EU, but i think Yoda and Palpatine should never have had a lightsaber in the prequel. Lucas should have stuck with his original prequel outline. Vader hunts down the Jedi no order 66. Ben and Vader duel over a volcano. Leia’s mom goes to Alderaan and died when she was very young. Somewhere in there Ben tries to sway Anakin back to the good side and fails leading to their duel and Anakin finally needing the suit to survive.

The only thing i’m not sold on was the original love triangle between Ani, Luke’s mom and Ben. I don’t think Lucas could pull it off.

Things i wonder about Anakin being portrayed as an adventurous man who didn’t care about farming but wanted to solve things with his lightsaber. He wanted Luke to have his lightsaber when he was old enough. Those idealistic crusades Ben spoke of. What were they?

Were the Clone Wars about Mandalorians fighting the Jedi like Revan in Kotor? Where did the Clones fit in.
