What about an Old Republic movie? This could be the chance to retcon midichlorians or show the Sith in their prime. Maybe a scumbag Sith cons people into thinking they could be Jedi with that midichlorian blood count thing.
Ugh. How about we just pretend midichlorians don’t exist and refuse to mention them in future works instead?
True. I think Disney is trying to avoid inside jokes and movies overly reliant on the original and prequel trilogies. Why do you think there’s new characters for The Force Awakens? All the announced spinoffs seem pretty standalone. They know there’s idiots who go into a sequel without watching anything before even if its 10 movies in.
