I'm surprised there aren't more sequel trilogy concept threads in this sub-forum. I'm not the only one pumping that well, am I?

 

Nope.

I'm working on a prequel and sequel trilogy, as the first and final chapters of a single story. I'm nowhere near the scene by scene breakdown as you are, but am still in the "throwing big ideas around" stage.

One of the things that I'm sure I don't want to do is repeat the "becoming a Jedi" arc from the OT. The three trilogies should be very different. In the first, Anakin goes from a young teenager ignorant of the galaxy to becoming a pilot in the outer rim territories. After Episode 3 he becomes a Jedi. I'm not sure about what the third trilogy should be about, but I'm thinking along the lines of "what makes a great leader?"and have it be about the Solo's child filling the power vacuum after the Emperor and bringing order to the galaxy.

Three different trilogies; three different journeys, but all connected in a quest for the Skywalker family to save the galaxy, one generation at a time.
