It's where the original Sith came from. if their going to change something that big in fan history then what else are they going to change just so they can have the freedom to "not be limited by the existing canon" Please, Disney, Kathleen, JJ and Kasden are butchering this thing left and right.

I know disney doesn't want to do things by EU at all but the book about Darth Plagueis the Wise is in my opinion one of the greatest star wars novels ever written. It explained everything that the movies failed to do like the birth of Anakin, the order of Sifo-Dyas's Clone Army, who Count Dooku was and why he left the order, the fact that Darth Maul had a biological Nightbrother(Savage Opress) we later see in TCW, all these things are explained in that book and I feel if they did it right we would really be able to see how malevolent Palpatine really is and the tragedy of a great Sith Lord which in a way would show you even he someone who could create life and prevent death was a pawn in Sidious's evil agenda. Which would, in a way, make you feel bad for the bad guy showing their audience an idea that even Sith have feelings and emotions too. idk just my two cents...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4104469133277555786.post-17007353636870252832014-02-12T03:39:22.171+00:002014-02-12T03:39:22.171+00:00does that mean no luke????does that mean no luke????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4104469133277555786.post-82311303361428671652014-02-12T03:26:54.959+00:002014-02-12T03:26:54.959+00:00Slap some make-up on Ewan McGreggar and give him d...Slap some make-up on Ewan McGreggar and give him dialog that isn't written by a three year old(on a legal pad) and you'd actually have the ability to do a really cool character story....

In the original film, Ben had all sorts of interesting keepsakes hanging from his walls in his home, had that big trunk of stuff that he pulled Luke's father's lightsaber from, etc. Obviously, at the time that was meant to convey a sense of Ben having had a lot of adventures as a Jedi over the years. But since he went into hiding with little more than the clothes on his back, it's certainly possible that he could have gathered all of these souvenirs during the 20 years he lived on Tatooine, It'd require that he keep his Jedi powers under wraps, of course, but I reckon he could have had an adventure or two offworld in that time.<br /><br />He did know where in Mos Eisley to find the best freighter pilots, after all.DEKKA129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4104469133277555786.post-28541360647060075512014-02-11T22:52:42.765+00:002014-02-11T22:52:42.765+00:00This means that idea of the 7 Samurai star wars sp...This means that idea of the 7 Samurai star wars spin-off is more likely :D<br /><br />This idea has so much potential...

So I'm not that surprised. I knew it wouldn't be Yoda, because George considers the mystery part of his character.
