A new Star Wars Trilogy on the way? — Page 5

During a rebellion, I think, the audience doesn't need to know a whole lot of the political motivations:

1. These guys are throwing a rebellion to overthrow those guys
2. We're with these guys
and maybe
3. Here are some of our gripes with those guys in the first place

FIGHT!

Whereas, if you were to tell the story of the reconstruction after the successful rebellion... I think you'd have to get more into the policies- especially in areas where the Rebellion was based on a platform of, say, No More War and the former leaders of the Rebellion, now that they're duly elected officials, now come to understand that they can't simply wish away the war.  And similarly, they are unable to execute many of their platform's planks.  In the end, the new boss ends up being A LOT like the old boss.  Not because the people doing the job are the same.  But because the job is mostly the same, regardless of who's doing it.

The HBO Paul Giamatti version of John Adams comes to mind.

Ah, I see.  You are suggesting a new war, but with the old players- just not necessarily aligned the way they were previously.  Is that right?

I guess I get a little tired of, "The War is Dead!  Long live the War!"  And when it's the same people involved over and over again, you have to think: Man!  You are the worst peacekeepers... EVER!
