The Prequel Radical Redux Ideas Thread

The sith thing has come up before, I believe it is only mentioned in the ANH novel. Whether the intention was for this to be an organisation, or just a throwaway name who knows...

Personally I'd love to see the 'Sith' gone from the PT. If any Jedi can just fall to the DARK SIDE without necessarily buying into this secret organisation it makes the idea of turning bad far easier and much more tragic.

Any of us can become evil, angry or violent, we don't necessarily have to join an organisation to do so.

 I totally agree.

Abrams, the Sith died in ROTJ.

 We get it! You don't like the continuations of the Empire or the Sith! You have expressed this opinion on SEVERAL different occasions! Let! It! Goooooooo!

 I feel like that would be counter to the entire ethos of this forum.

Same here. For the most part, this entire forum is people repeating, "the prequels suck."

Remember, people, that George is still in the background for Episode VII, and has anyone forgotten about the hype for Episode I 15 years back? With Abrams being a Spielberg clone at best, we might have another perfect storm in our hands. Hopefully Abrams has more respect for SW than he had for ST.

Thank you. We can't assume that Lucas is the only bad director in the world.

Star Wars prequels were mapped out in 1981, only nothing like the way they turned out

This is a really interesting excerpt from the upcoming "Making of Return of the Jedi" book.

Interesting to just how different his plans were back then. It also destroys the argument of the prequel fans that they were planned out that way all along ( i bet they're going to love that ;) ). 

So to summarise;

Yoda doesn't fight. He is more of a teacher.

NO MIDICHLORIANS

Jedi can love and marry.

ANYONE can learn to use the force if they are prepared to learn.

Luke & Leia's mother was still alive until they were 2 years old

So they would have originally fit in pretty well with the OT.

also,

The Empire ceases to exist at the end of ROTJ.

Palpatine is described as an ancient being who looks the way he does because he's using the dark side to make himself immortal.
