I like I and II a lot, but not so sure about III. I don't think there should be a Jedi Council at all. I also don't think we should introduce the Emperor idea so late - that should come during II, in my opinion. I also don't know what to think about us knowing the twins so early, though if there's one OT surprise we have to drop, that would be the one to drop.

I do, however, like the idea of them seeking Yoda's advice about the children.

I do like the Sith pirates thing, and if we need to use the Sith in some way, that's the way to do it.

I don't think we really ought to preserve any of the OT secrets. Everyone knows who Yoda is, everyone knows that DV is Luke's father and everyone knows that Luke and Leia are siblings. Who exactly are we keeping these secrets from? The whole point of the PT was to flesh out the backstory of the OT and show just how everything happened. How Anakin fell to the dark side, how the jedi knights were wiped out, how the empire rose, how Yoda ended up on Dagobah and how the twins were born and seperated. If you get rid of this How element then what is the point anyway?
