    Not bad If real.
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

      The 8 year old in me is super stoked about these films, the 30 year old in me is still traumatized by Episode 1 and the 45 year old in me reminds himself that if all else fails I can just watch the original Star Wars in my basement as many times as I'd like

                  I love Ralph McQuarrie, but I don't want the X-Wings and everything else to be directly taken from the drawings and paintings.

                  I feel we need Ep. IV-VI ships and equipment in seven.

                  Now, the helm looks a little clone-y.

                  Bugs me they didn't just use Mandalorian helmets. Paint them white suits.

                  Clone helmets look like teddy bear faces.

                  The frown was for breathing, not looking, for Stormtroopers.

                  As long as J.J. doesn't call it Star Wars Into Darkside, or The Star Wars In Space.....

                  Rebels already used a McQuarrie type droid.

                    Liking what I see so far. I think updates are great as long as they stay close to the sensibilities of what people know from the original trilogy.

                      Me too. I remember getting that Ralph McQuarrie portfolio when A New Hope came out so this is a cool call out. I also like what I'm reading about the use of more practical effects. Corny or not, it just sets a certain vibe that I like.

                        If it's set 30 years after Jedi, why are there still Imperial Stormtroopers?
                        The empire was defeated.

                          Rumor has it the Empire is still around, but much, much smaller than it ever was. Republic's the dominant power in the galaxy.
                          "It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                            The Emperor was defeated, and the second Death Star destroyed, but there was still a whole Imperial army out there.
                            They might have appointed a new leader.
                            My vote would be Salacious Crumb.
