I've been reading about why a return to Ta...Hi. I've been reading about why a return to Tatooine would be required and, personally, I think the answer could lie in the PT: Anakin vowed to free the slaves, and never did. I appreciate that at present this could very well be dismissed as irrelevant (an idealistic child vowing a positive action his later life-choices made impossible), but it could also be viewed as a dangling thread... Is it possible Luke returns to Tatooine, in the guise of an ambassador, to keep that promise for his father? Surely Luke (and Leia) will be curious about their heritage and, on learning their grandmother was a slave (who also allegedly underwent an immaculate conception), want to investigate their family line further? I know PT haters will hate this, but I expect more prophecy/midichlorean revelations in the new movies. As for the title, I'm rooting for something along the lines of "Episode VII: Legacy of Lies" as I predict the story will hinge on the heroes untangling the mess left behind by both Palpatine and the Jedi to some extent.

The entire war machine was established as a 'grand army of the republic' and, presumably, went back to being so once the tyrannical leadership of Palpatine was ended. So walkers on Tatooine (or anywhere else) don't necessarily suggest an 'Imperial' presence: they suggest a--for want of a better term--government presence. Remember, the Jedi themselves were zooming about in Star Destroyers prior to order 66 being issued. There's nothing to prevent Luke himself using a walker (as an effective means of transport) to get from A to B. Just a thought. And yes, this is VERY exciting. :)WJPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07740427420409476520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4104469133277555786.post-78636517308507581172014-04-19T19:15:16.347+01:002014-04-19T19:15:16.347+01:00That is quite possible, unfortunately... :(That is quite possible, unfortunately... :(WJPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07740427420409476520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4104469133277555786.post-11480751223512049322014-04-19T18:31:51.503+01:002014-04-19T18:31:51.503+01:00I've been googling this.
