I'm more thinking along the lines of this, which is a pretty loose interp:

Backwater Planet that hasn't been involved in the war. Obi-Wan is hiding out on it, along with several other Jedi who just want to stay uninvolved. Then the war comes to the planet somehow. Maybe the enemy is setting up a canon or something on the surface, and they've started to somehow threaten the peace of the locals. Anakin, perhaps a recon pilot in the Republic Navy, is shot down, and then finds out what the enemy is doing. He enlists the help of Obi-Wan, who is at first slow to react, but then he and the other 6 Jedi reluctantly get dragged into the conflict. During the movie, Anakin and Obi-Wan form a bond so that when Anakin leaves at the end to return and report, Obi-Wan and maybe a few of the other Jedi go too...

Or not. I actually have an outline that I should post on here sometime... (maybe if this forum ever takes off) and that's not in it at all. But the outline I have is all from scratch, and I've been locked in on the ideas in for a long time... I was trying to think of completely new angles to look at an Episode 1 and this was one of them.

You mean, watching several versions/sequels of the Magnificent Seven isn't good enough? ;)
