The new movies are supposed to be about Ben and Luke.

Anyone read the synopsis of the script lucas wrote that told the beginning of the story:

"a whole bunch of sith lords are walking around arguing about a lightsaber they found allegedly belonging to Darth Vader. In walks a shadowy figure and he slaughters them all and says 'This belonged to my grandfather' and exits"

There are supposed to be Sith War droids, which was the design of the Darth Vader suit.

I read that the timeframe this was to occur in has been encroached by the expanded universe but was for a very long time untouchable because it was the timeframe of episodes VII-IX, as was the official policy, that no EU content could take place then since it was reserved.

It has long been rumoured Rick was going to continue the franchise after Lucas retired or died.

Sorry man, it was all planned out long ago that Episodes VII-IX were to take place when Luke and Leia are old and not after the Battle of Yavin.

It was only until very recently that they opened up that time period to be explored in the EU, which means they are going to push the events back a little further so it doesn't interfere.

Then again Lucasfilms, a subsidiary of Disney, has absolutely no incentive to protect the assets of Lucasbooks, George's publishing firm that has handled the books since the Thrawn Trilogy.

I absolutely do not want to see any part of the EU made into a movie. It should be George's original intent of "The Fall" "the redemption of the father" then "The redemption of the son"

We all know the only way to go. Yuuzhan Vong. Gritty, dark, violent survival fights with the Jedi and Empire remnants. Hoo-yah.
