    Except Han Solo wasn't a bumbling buffoon.

    Neither was Jar Jar originally.

    I think he only made the transition to buffoon in the final draft, which was also the version where Liam Neeson's character was given a larger role.

    No, no, no, Jar Jar is Yoda.

    The frog-like character found on the proverbial side of the road who unexpectedly turns out to provide crucial assistance.

    Obviously take it with a grain of salt but there's a rumour that Vader will be back.

    If it is true I can understand why they want to bring him back, and perhaps they could find a way to make it work but it would be extremely hard. If they bring him back as dark-side Vader it undoes his whole redemption story and if they bring him back as light-side Vader he probably wouldn't be as cool.

    I think the best way for Vader to work in a sequel trilogy is as a redeemed force ghost, which is anyway where we left him in the last cycle.

    I think that same British tabloid reported a 300' tall lizard stomping around Tokyo last week too...

    It's a good thing that Lucas replaced Shaw with Hayden Christensen. I wonder if he had done that specifically for a potential sequel trilogy.

    Hah, I knew Disney couldn't leave a brand as big as Vader alone! :rommie:

    And it is all about brands to them. The OT characters are like Snow White, they'll find ways to make movies about them indefinitely.

    Temis: When did Disney say they're bringing Vader back? Take a look at where the article came from.

    How many other theatrically released Snow White movies has Disney made?

    $10 says they resurrect a Zombie Vader from corrupted DNA extracted from the ashes of his funeral pyre... Half Man, Half Robotic Zombie. Calling it now... ;)

    Lets not forget all the crazy rumors for the prequels. Wasn't one that Charlton Heston was going to play a young Yoda? Seriously. Without any info every rumor is going to be examined.

    I been thinking of plot ideas. Nazi were a strong inspiration for the Empire. Perhaps years after the Empire there is a surgence of Neo-Nazi style Empire/Sith inspired cult. It would allow for the use of the Sith imagery without the original characters.

    Lucas's original scripts has a full army of Sith Lords. That would be a way of using that idea. The Rule of Two was ended with Sidious and Vader. But now there is a group of Wanna be Sith Lords. Seeing a full out war among Sith and Jedi would certainly be something we have never seen.

    Let's get Ridley Scott on this ASAP!

    Episode 7 will be standalone movie but have ties to the previous movies.

    Fassbender will play a Lobo type robot

    Charlize a politician

    Idris Elba as Lando Calrissian


    All three will set off to discover the origins of the force. We find out the force started off as a five legged/two headed creature born from goo.

    :lol: And make as much sense. But those actors I'd be more than happy with.
