Avoid Jedis as super-powerful space-monks who obsess over rules and midichlorian measurements. It's easy even for older fans to forget that the Force in the OT was much less physically powerful and prevalent. When Luke was facing down the Rancor, he - George - didn't think to hit the button with his Force power. Moving small rocks was kind of a big deal. Yoda slowly lifting a ship with much concentration was also supposed to be amazing. Luke had to use great concentration to lift C-3PO. Otherwise the Force was used for slight distractions, fooling a weak-minded person on occasion, or finding calm and focus. No Jedi mindtrick was used in the Cantina, which goes to show the Force wasn't seen as a go-to for all conflicts. When Luke wanted to convince Jabba that he was a great Jedi Knight, he also didn't dress in the supposed traditional robes. Jedis were more interesting and the Force more mysterious.

Is it too late to go back?
