I think we've got our hands full with Lucas. Thanks for the consideration, though.

But, here's the basic story outline I have so far, such as it is, with a few notes.


Looks like a pretty comprehensive story arc in both posts. My friend and I talked about retelling the prequels' story, and it's pretty amazing that we came up with a similar connection for Owen, Beru and Anakin.

It all sounds pretty cool, but having Luke fall into lava, too? How does that work?

And I've had this vision set in my mind about the Clone Wars from early speculation about it involving Boba Fett's people, the Mandalorian.
One of the early ideas, I believe, was that the Clones were clones of the Mandalorian (like the Prequels), but they were made by the Mandalorian for their own use. And I can't help but love the idea of a sky-flying Mandalorians taking on an army of Jedi.

That being said, and aside from the fact that the OT reference is specifically to "clone", your "Cloan" idea is pretty ingenious.

Yeah, I'm feeling burn-out over the whole SW thing, and once I'm done with my Episode 3 re-edit, I may drop it for the most part.
