Dawn of the Jedi

A Series set at pretty much the beginning of a galaxy far far away, about how the first Jedi came to being and learnt the ways of the force. Could be so epic, amazing if done right

2# New Jedi Order, this is a series I read and loved and while the new series will most likely be something unrelated to the books, I can still dream can’t I? the Yuuzhan Vong have invaded the “Star wars Galaxy and seek the conquer it, and redeem it of it’s abominations, namely technology. This was overall a amazing series spanning around 20 novels, which is really long, but a lot of it was filler and not all of it was great, so it could be reorganized a bit, it also features awesome characters like Luke Skywalker, Leia Solo, Han solo, Mara Jade Skywalker (Luke’s wife and Jedi Master ) and the solo Children. Jaina, Jacen and Anakin Solo, this series was very epic, very character driven, which Is something which was greatly lacking from even the Original Trilogy. It was also very graphic and would be hard to tone down to a PG-13 level (It wouldn't need to be imo but mainstream audiences might not be so eager to see something Star Wars with an “R“ rating strapped to it .”  let alone PG. I think it would work best as a tv-series, which would be fine by me, if they could get a big enough budget for it.

3# The Knights of the Old Republic, this is actually based on a video game, one of the best video Games ever though, and with surprising depth to it, taking place about  5,000 years before The rise of the Empire, it is when the Republic at war with the sith, which are not all sith (as in force users) a film wouldn’t necessarily take to be based directly on the video game, and with the new MMO “The Old Repbulic” it would be awesome to have a story-line taking place around this era.


4# George’s 7 8 and 9. Now, I love the books taking place after The Return of the JedI, but I still would be very interested in seeing what he had in Mind, for after the empire was defeated. And Imagine, if you could actually get the original cast back ? Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford as old and wise, and Carrie Marks part Jedi Masters. Could be awesome, just not Jar Jar, and more character development please. Of course it could be pretty much anything maybe taking place hundreds of years after “Jedi” and Focusing on one of Lukes descendants.

5# The Thrawn Trilogy and Hand of Thrawn duelgy. Written by Timothy Zhan and  the first book published in 1991, over 20 years ago now, It was the fist star wars novels to continue the stories of Luke, Leia and Han solo,  and it received praise by critics and fans alike, winning numerous awards and becoming a instant best seller, and it introduces iconic villain  Grand Admiral Thrawn, a Imperial leader with ingenious battles tactics and master mind intellect, it would also introduce Mara Jade, one of the most well known and beloved Star wars EU characters, of course they would have to recast the actors, which would be hard but not Impossible cause it takes place only 5 years after RotJ, I certainly wouldn't be crying if this was it, this would be most fans obvious choice and perhaps the safest bet, but they don’t seem to be going that direction. L

6#  The Force Unleashed, This is also a video game, but taking place in-between episode IV and V so it would be more like Episode 111 ½. , about Vader’s secret apprentice, unlike some material it is actually official star wars canon, the actor  Sam Witwer, looked like the character, and is still young enough to play him, not to mention he is a pretty decent actor, it may be the best story out there, but it is good, and some killer force using could be seen.  I wouldn't mind seeing this on the big screen.

7# something completely new, focusing on new characters in a timeline unexplored, maybe hundreds of years after the fall of the empire, would give writers lots of room to work with, but this would mean putting a lot of trust in whatever direction they are wanting to go, they have a whole galaxy to play with. And lots of possibilities, but not all are good.

Also wouldn't mind seeing adoptions of  “Courtship of Princess Leia” “Legacy of the Force”  Fate of the Jedi” “Young Jedi Knights, and “The Old Republic: Deceived” amazing book and works great as a stand alone)  Jedi Academy Trilogy,

I hear Shadows of the Empire is good too, although I haven’t got a chance to read it yet.
Oh and Shadow Games, was an awesome book!”

Just some thoughts on where they could go with this
