... Not the Pt we have now that are not only bad movies that stain the OT but ruin the plot as well (ep 5's reveal moment shock is gone, etc),...

There are people around these here parts who call that crazy talk... or maybe it's only when I say it... hiding under in the cupboard under the sink.

My view is there are lots of fans for who the PT is their entry point to the saga and while I think they are poopy-poop-poop I can understand why other people may incorrectly disagree with me.

So here's my thoughts.

Keep the big history making events the same but put them in the background (have the Jedi, the Separatists, the politics as background details) and create a new trilogy of films set the same time as the prequels that plop and make them not plop.

There is a whole lot of stuff happening in the background of (dare I say it?) Guardians of the Galaxy that we don't get to see much if at all. It doesn't distract us from an interesting group of characters, the fate of which is not predetermined or already made better in our own imaginations after years of thinking about Ben's memories of the Old Republic (or the Odd Republic if you watch the Ploppy Trilogy)

That's what I would like from the spin-offs. A spin off trilogy which acts as an alternative PT for those who want one but doesn't decanonise the original plop.
