The Shadow Guard in The Force Unleashed. I wish Snoke, Palpatine, or both used them in Episodes 7-9.

If Luke could see the good in Darth Vader and redeem him, why didn’t he do the same with more bad guys, like the Emperor, Snoke, Jabba the Hutt, etc.?

Whatever he saw in Vader simply wasn’t present in the others you mentioned.

• That in Tales of the Jedi: Golden Age of the Sith, the Jedi use corded lightsabers and the Sith don’t use lightsabers at all. Before Golden Age, it was implied that lightsabers hadn’t changed since before the formation of the Sith (it was later made clear both sides did in fact already have modern lightsabers at the time).

• That the formation of the Sith was moved from 25,000 years before the movies to 7000 years before the movies. Sith characters in Golden Age of the Sith think that the existence of the Republic is “just a myth”, a bunch of lore had been written and characters created with 25,000 years in mind, and Golden Age refers to the formation of the Sith as the “First Great Schism”.

I suspect that Revan, Malak, and the Mandalorian War talked about in KOTOR were based on how fans imagined the Clone Wars and Obi-Wan and Anakin before the prequels were made.

Have Palpatine’s advisors from ROTJ show up.

Instead of TC-14, C-3PO and R2-D2 greet Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan. When Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan leave the ship, 3PO and R2 go with them. This would fit with the early idea of 3PO and R2 starting out as Imperial bureaucrats and when you consider Lucas said that they tell the story, it would be fitting to start the Saga with them meeting the main characters.

When the KOTOR games and TOR are set. They should be set in ~2000-1000 BBY (so that they’d be part of the “New Sith Wars” and lead into the “Republic Dark Age” and continuity with TOTJ wouldn’t be an issue) and KOTOR II should be set at least 100 years after Revan’s lifetime and during the Republic Dark Age.

I also wish the Jedi and Sith wore armor resembling Vader’s throughout the prequels.

Dark Empire never said “Sith” besides the scene where Palpatine visits Korriban, and it’s made clear in that scene that Palpatine isn’t one of them.

In Rise of Skywalker, Palpatine being a “Sith” and his desire for “the Sith” to be “reborn” is frequently mentioned.

Obviously not everything is exactly like in the Comic but it often is far to similar to be a coincidence. I now looked up the comic again and to me it looks like they even nearly copypasted some shots from the comic.
The entrance to Exegol for example looks extremely similar to Palpatines arrival on Korriban. (the big Sith statues to the side, the ship in the background even the camera angle)
Another example is how Palpatine is consumed by his own Force power. Look at the scene that happens on the Eclipse in the comic and compare it to the movie. (camera angle, Palpatines pose, the look of his face)

I was sharing a fun fact, not denying the connection.

• The Jedi having a public temple and Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Yoda being famous. The Original Trilogy that few people were ever aware that the Jedi existed, that even fewer people were that Anakin was one and that what Uncle Owen claimed was wrong, and that even fewer people than that were aware of Yoda’s existence.

• “Darth” being a title. Should every Jedi have “Ben” as a title?

The original trilogy implies that:

• the public doesn’t know that Anakin was a Jedi
• the public doesn’t know that Yoda existed

What I would’ve done:

The Jedi would’ve been a small religious order, their numbers somewhere between 100,000 & 1,000,000. They would’ve served as diplomats, advisors, and during the Clone Wars, as tacticians (they wouldn’t have fought on the battle field; that’s stupid). The general public would’ve had very little knowledge of the Jedi, and even less exposure to them.

I feel like them having a temple on the Galactic Capital planet and them fighting in public battles doesn’t fit with the what the Original Trilogy tells us (that people don’t know who they are and don’t believe in The Force). I’d prefer that when they interact with the public in the prequels, they use aliases and that the public doesn’t know that they’re Jedi and isn’t aware of their powers.

Anakin would’ve been inducted into the Sith religion by the Sith spirits on Korriban. Palpatine wouldn’t have been a Sith at all, but an independent dark side sorcerer.

Empire’s End implies this. Palpatine is the one who turned Anakin to the Dark Side, but he could still have gone through the trials and got knighted on Korriban like Exar Kun.

In the prequels, the Jedi exist in the open and think that the Sith are extinct.

My idea is that instead, the public would be unaware of the existence of either, but the Jedi and Sith would be aware of each other’s existence, but wouldn’t know each other’s identities beyond aliases. The aliases used by Sith wouldn’t include “Darth” and there wouldn’t be a “Rule of Two”.

The idea that Palpatine’s goal was to prepare for the Vong. If that was the case, what was the goal of the Sith Lords before him, and why didn’t he warn anybody?

When it was the 20th anniversary of “Baby One More Time” by Britney Spears, I thought, “Too bad midriff-baring had fallen out of fashion by the time I reached puberty.”

GOUT is simply a DVD release of Faces.

As for sound mixes, I’d love to hear the mono mix of ANH.

Is it just me or did a lot of fans turn against the unaltered versions once the sale of Lucasfilm to Disney was announced? Before the sale to Disney, I always heard that Lucas was evil incarnate and that the Special Editions are unwatchable, but the day that the sale to Disney was announced, I started hearing “releasing the unaltered versions would result in the discontinuation of the Special Editions” or “releasing the unaltered versions would go against the canon”.

The claim that the prequels contradict Obi-Wan saying, “I don’t remember owning a droid.” Throughout the prequels, R2 went with Anakin and was owned by him and Padmé, not Obi-Wan.

Yoda warns Obi-Wan and Anakin to stay out of the Clone Wars because war leads to the dark side. However, Obi-Wan and Anakin are determined to save the galaxy, so they join the Clone Wars anyway. As the Clone Wars go on, Anakin becomes convinced that only a totalitarian regime with a strong military can “save” the galaxy and he comes to feel that giving into his hatred helps him defeat what he sees as threats to the peace and security of the galaxy.

Not sure if this is a “complaint”, but a claim I find baffling is the claim that Palpatine in the prequels was supposed to represent George W. Bush. TPM was released when Clinton was still President and AOTC was done filming when 9/11 happened.

The name “Jedi Civil War” for the conflict of KOTOR I is utter nonsense. Based on the logic for the name, every Sith War besides the Naga Sadow War and the Vitiate War would be a “Jedi Civil War”.
