I'm not sure of the best way to get into my ideas for Ep2 and 3. When I gave my bare outline for Ep1, it was shot down pretty quick. I have a lot of ideas going for the next two, but its not as complete or solid as my recent Ep1 outline. Would you folks rather the bare bones outline of both episodes (I'm not even sure where the transition between movies should occur yet) or just lay out some of the concepts I'm working on?

For example, questions I'm trying to answer are:

1. What is Clone War II?

2. Why do we never see Yoda in this trilogy and why is he on Dagobah?

3. What sets Anakin apart from other Jedi that Palpatine is interested in him?

4. How does the emperor rise to power and how do we make him NOT seem evil?

5. If the emperor is willing to kill Anakin's children because they would be a threat to him, why does he keep Vader?

6. Who are the Sith and why aren't they in the OT?

7. Why did Obiwan tell Luke, "I was ONCE a Jedi knight, the same as your father"?

8. After Alderaan is destroyed in ANH, why isn't Leia a queen? Wouldn't she be the last living royalty of that world?

9. Why does Leia remember her "real mother," while Luke finds Dagobah familiar?

Let me know how you would like me to present my ideas (outline or concepts).
