Having read of some of your new ideas for Star Trek as presented in the new film, I just thought I'd write and tell you about my idea for a brand new version of a Star Wars prequel. My idea is that sometime in the distant future of SW (after Return of the Jedi), an evil Dark Jedi travels back into the past before A New Hope and messes with things a bit. In this bold new take on the SW story, the action begins on Earth in the 46th century AD, with Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker about to embark on the Clone Wars. What's cool is that Obi-Wan and Anakin aren't just comrades here, they're also lovers. They are also accompanied by a trainee Jedi by the name of Darth Vader. In the course of the story, a large number of planets are destroyed in the conflict, including Bespin, Endor and Hoth. Another cool thing is that Palpatine is now a weak, stupid guy who is used as a figurehead by the Council of Moffs. Master Yoda is killed in one of the battles. It ends with Anakin being murdered by the jealous and power-hungry Vader, but Obi-Wan manages to create a baby clone of Anakin which he names Luke; he then gives Luke to Owen Lars on Tatooine. This sets things up for A New Hope, but I decided to totally disregard the other films because it's so much cooler that way.
