The Unofficial Complete REVISITED SAGA Ideas and Random Discussion Thread
Time

I just want to point out that the more popular idea, where Obi-wan leaves Ani in the lava and we never see Ani again, provides the user with convincing reasons as to why Obi-wan lies to Luke in ANH: "Oh, this guy named Vader, who I'd love to see dead, because he's the villain of this film, HE killed your father, definitely not me the only guy around who can set you on the right path. Definitely wasn't me! It was that bad guy!"

So, you'd be losing that.

Star Wars: Extended Edition (* unfinished project *)

Well, the whole thing was inspired by the LOTR EE DVD's so I am trying to emulate them as close as possible, while adapting the format to being Star Wars-y.

 The only reason the LOTR EEs were split was because of length. The EE Blu-rays are not split. The intermission in those films was a matter of necessity, and not an artistic choice. When you make a Star Wars EE Blu-Ray, are you going to put a slight green color over the whole film?

Ok, what is with the aint it cool guy constantly writing "OB1" instead of  "Obi-Wan"? Annoying. 

That's a very old fan theory sticking around in his vocab.

 The "OB1" was Ben's clone designation theory? That is an oldie.

 Yeah, but that's definitely where it comes from.

There are rumors that Ardnt is actually secretly working on the script for VIII now.

 That would make a lot of sense.

Script not thrown out, but decided to be more suited to the second episode of the ST, perhaps?

 Right, but reworked to be more appropriate for a middle-of-a-trilogy film.

The decision in regards to the EU was purely an internal one and Disney had no part in it.

 Stop defending Di$ney. 

 Thank God we can still put dollar signs in these words!

 Yeah. I used to love Disney, but thanks to people putting dollar signs in words, my opinion really changed. There's nothing like a revolutionary and creative act of rebellion to force people to rethink their views. What a great idea.

Episode VII Cast List Announced
Time

No Billy Dee Williams??

And yet Mayhew's in, despite being in a wheelchair. I don't understand how that will work. Did he get those knee replacements? Can he still play Chewie?

I guess they'll have Baker show up for a day or two, squeeze into the can, rotate the lid, shake a little bit, and then remote-control the rest, like the prequels. Please let me know if that's an inaccurate description of his involvement with the prequels.

Of the new folk, the only name I know is Serkis. Guess I need to read about these people.
