I think that this thread (and this website in general) is awesome. I was horrified by the prequels and not only think that they are some of the worst films ever made, but will be some of the worst movies EVER made. I think that this site is important.

Some of the better ideas I read about have to do with a (forgive the noun) "alien" force threatening the republic. The problem with this is that if there is no "outside" power mentioned in any of the OT movies.

If an alien presence is the source/a major component of the conflict, then there must be some explanation as to why they're all gone. "Explanation" itself might be too strong of a word, but let's just say you have to handle anything you bring up that isn't present in the OT.

And Ice Cream is definitely part of the OT. Just ask Tobar:
