re: Star Wars Standalone Film (Dir: Gareth Edwards)
she was on the council in The Phantom Menace... not much screen time but she is there. yes it was a she
so at this point who's to say they won't go in between Revenge of the Sith and New Hope and show Vader in action? perhaps a few hold out Jedi are still around otehr than Obi wan and yoda. We could see Vader commanding troops and bullying other planets while the death star one is being built. Ian McDiarmid could reprise his role as the emperor.

Maybe they can pull Pixar into the mix and get some good animated features as well....

re: Star Wars Standalone Film (Dir: Gareth Edwards)
I think everyone has it wrong. It's not a film starring Yoda, rather it's a spin-off of that great novel from the Jedi Prince Series titled "Mission From Mount Yoda."
Seriously though, I wouldn't mind a Yoda film, but when would this take place? There really isn't any established back story predating EP.1. In the EU this area has been strictly off limits according to some writers and the absence of material speaks for itself.

doesn't have to be any back story now... Disney owns it now and they will be written by Lawrence Kasdan, screenwriter of The Empire Strikes Back, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and co-writer of Return of the Jedi while the other will be penned by Simon Kinberg, writer of Sherlock Holmes and Mr. and Mrs. Smith so they could create their own back stories. Basically EU will live in a whole new way.
just like anakin says: make things the way we want them to be!
I am both excited and terrified at the same time!

If they could condense the New Jedi Order down to, say, a trilogy, I could get into that. Though my ulterior motive is to see Traitor brought to the big screen.
Honestly, if they could get Matthew Stover to write the script, I'd even be OK with Jar-Jar Abrams directing it.

This is true and thank the maker for that. It's a great time to be a Star Wars fan. There are so many exciting possibilities to look forward to.

re: Star Wars Standalone Film (Dir: Gareth Edwards)
I want a Wraith Squadron movie. It would never happen, but it would be awesome and hilarious. If you haven't given the EU a chance read those because other than Wedge, they are all new characters, none of which are a Jedi (well one is many years later).
In reality though it will probably be a spinoff of some new characters from the new movies. Otherwise I'd like to see something that has been missing from the books and games since the 90s. I would like to see a story about Luke going to search for Jedi artifacts, documents, holocrons, etc. It makes sense because he would need those things to help teach new Jedi. It could also make a cool kind of Indy SW crossover adventure.

re: Star Wars Standalone Film (Dir: Gareth Edwards)
Am I the only one that remembers Yoda's 'backwards talking' in ESB was a PLOY he used in screwing with Luke's head to see where he was and if he could be trained. After Luke figured out who he was, he dropped it! Then in ROTJ we got that good old backwards babbling Yoda, cause you know, it made him loveable!

Um, no he didn't...
"You must unlearn what you have learned"
"Friends you have there"
"It is the future you see"
"Difficult to see. Always in motion is the future"
"Decide you must, how to serve them best. If you leave now, help them you could; but you would destroy all for which they have fought, and suffered"

The "spin offs" should leave any major character from the original films and prequel films in the background.

I've always joked about Star Wars Origins: Yoda, (900 years of adventures!) but since Disney is now in charge, I no longer want it haha! Fett would be cool, but he needs to be cast as tall as Bulloch 5'11" not the 5'8" that Jango was. I'm on the fence with all these new SW movies along with many others, just gotta sit & wait and see what turns out I guess

Kinda feeling the same way. Even if they're all great it might just be too much of a good thing.
