The tragic story of Porkins... Hopeful young pilot in the Imperial Fleet, betrayed and framed by his peers, cast out with no hope and no future, develops an eating disorder and an addiction to death sticks. Finally he finds the rebel alliance and a reason to live... to take revenge on the Empire. The gripping tale of a broken man given one last chance and going down in a blaze of glory... almost.
As far as the PT goes Yoda didn't have a lightsaber after ROTS.
As far I'm going he didn't need one in the PT.
My point made to my satisfaction.
Gerald Butler should play Porkins' husband who is pregnant when he is killed by Stormtroopers.
Porkins then goes all Death Wish on the Empire.
Takes too many chances.
Doesn't eject.

I want it to be a mix of Bad Lieutenant and Le Samourai. Kicking ass and taking names.
Every time he's about to kill someone he says, "Stay on target..." BLAM!
“Grow up. These are my Disney's movies, not yours.”
Porkins never said that though. It was Gold Five, who was one pretty cool customer under fire...
Where were you in '77?

Heh heh I know, but I want the phrase to originate from Porkins. Then Pops (I think that was the Gold 5 pilot) and other Rebel pilots adopt the phrase when Porkins gives up the thug life and joins the Alliance.
You know, poetry, like George says. ;)

Just to clarify, in one of the scripts to TESB, Yoda does indeed have a lightsaber fight with the ghost of Kenobi.
And yes, I agree that giving Yoda a lightsaber was lame (just like most every other decision in the PT), but I wouldn't have minded seeing him use a saber just once, and similar to how he decapitated those soldiers in ROTS. Quick and deadly. And that's it. And only in the direst of circumstances.
Well before the dark times, before the prequels, I have always thought Yoda was against any kind of weapons (lightsabre included). In all his dialogue throughout the OT, not once he glorifies a lightsabre (I don't think he even mention it). Also in his entire lesson we don't see Luke using his own either. So the way I see it, Yoda does not have nor need a lightsabre.
真実
Didn't you know?
All Jedi use lightsabres. And wear Ben's hermit disguise. And twirl. And know that the highground is the best ground there is. And are generals. And can fly.

Well, find me some better ground then.
I always get really excited when I hear about the possibility of new Boba Fett material, because I have always wanted to see him do more than he did in Empire and Jedi, but then I get really depressed because I remember that Clones absolutely ruined the entire character forever because they're going to have to allude to the whole backstory crap, and even if they don't, I'll have to listen to Temeura Morrison (who I liked as Jango, but not as related to Boba), or Daniel Logan's (who's voice annoys me so much) voice coming from the character, which means that as much as I want more Boba Fett material, I also know I can never ever like any of it.
If anyone wants to re-record all post-2004 Boba Fett vocal appearances, though, I'd be happy to provide my voice. I'm no Wingreen, but I'm certainly no prequel version.
Keep Circulating the Tapes.
END OF LINE
(It hasn’t happened yet)
For peripherally-related origin or introduction stories, it goes without saying that I'd absolutely dig a Mara Jade film. The novels Allegiance or Choices of One would work very nicely as tangent Star Wars films. Enough to feel familiar, yet get away from the mess that the franchise has become.
They could stay away from our heroes almost entirely (name checks only) or recast them. If Spock, Kirk, McCoy and James Bond can be successfully recast (and they have been) - anyone can be recast.
^yet to be proved but I would love another stab at casting Anakin Skywalker.

Man, everybody wants to kill the Porkins love by (correctly) attributing his lines to Gold Leader: http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/My-Fake-Star-Wars-Band-Rock-Band-Porkins-and-the-Came-From-Behinds/post/569310/#TopicPost569310

Wishlist:
-Vader hunting down the remaining Jedi.
-The Rebel's first victory where they steal the Death Star plans that was mentioned in Episode IV's crawl.
-Live Action Clone wars. (Bring back Hayden and McGreggor, give them good direction and actually flesh out their relationship)
I'd like to get the angle on the other wrinklies on the Death Star with Palpatine.

Well... no... but they may have sexy personalities that have yet to be explored.
Maybe they have a wicked sense of humour and that can be a turn on.
You do, I can totally tell.
