I love it, as a spinoff
I basically knew everything that you were going to type as soon as you said Jacen was decked out in all black smokin). I absolutely love the sense of wonderment that we currently have with Episode VII right now, the pages of speculation we've had on here talking about if the Empire does or does not exist, is there or is there not w Jedi Order, is Yoda and Obi-Wan still helping Luke out? Is Darth Plagueis the Villain? Is Darth Bane the Villain? I love it. If they would've went with the Eu, we'd have not of this. We'd already know how episodes 8 & 9 would start & end.
I've said it before, I'd absolutely love it if they used the EU for some of the spinoffs, but even being a huge EU fan, I think going away from it was a smart move.
And not trying to defend the supposed plot line, because I hate it too, but context is everything.
Imagine Episodes 1-3 came out first (Jah forbid ) and we're sitting here on the 'Disney announces Star Wars Episode IV' thread, and someone posts these rumors.
Palpatine and Yoda don't exist in IV
The silent extra at the end of Episode 3 will be Vaders superior for the entire movie.
In the two decades that have passed since Episode 3, Obi-Wan hasn't done ANYTHING to train Luke or Leia (sound familiar ) in fact, Leia will only show signs of Force sensitivity twice in the entire trilogy.
Some Newbie pilot character will have a bigger role then all the leads from Episodes I-III
Imagine the rage on here
