So the new films coming are set in the high republic. 400 years before the prequels.

MSW has the report.

Just read it. That really sounds incredible and I truly hope it happens as reported.

So that's not far enough back for Ajunta Pall, huh? Is there any canon literature for anything in that timeframe?

No idea at all.

If you look at it it’s a safe enough option. All the established in universe framework is there but clean canvas for new characters. Yoda could possibly feature but who knows.

I hope Palpatine is in it.

And Shmi had to come from somewhere, right?

Maybe the Palpatines and the Skywalkers could spring from the same bloodline. That would be most desirable. And fucking awesome.

You don’t fuck in Star Wars if it’s those families.

You manipulate midichlorians

But there SHOULD be fucking and hopefully we’ll get that back in the old days.

I’m pretty sure you’re joking, but I think he is probably a lot older than he looked in the PT.

Obviously he wasn’t the Emperor until ROTS, but if he ended up being a few hundred years old at the end, he could possibly pop up somehow in a future prequel.

All joking aside. I hope not. While I WOULD like to see some Jedi and Sith in this, I want it to stay far, far away from any Palpatines and Skywalkers.

I’m sure you will get your wish. Although one day we might get a Joker like Palpatine-movie.

I’m having trouble seeing any threat to involve the Jedi. They went unchallenged for a thousand years before palpatine arrived. I hope they don screw with that

MSW has the report.

From my guy who works in Hollywood:

Quote:
I was told directly that Benioff & Weiss's project was to be set 30,000 years ago and involve the first Force users. Jason's saying that Benioff & Weiss were going to work with this time period but that must have been what Lucasfilm had suggested, not B&W.

If this report is true, I don't understand how they're going to incorporate The Sith since not only is the "Rule of Two" in effect, The Sith were thought to been extinct for a millennia (at least according to Mace Windu).

Wasn't the rule of 2 just a philosophy that Darth Bane enacted? It's not like a physical limitation or anything.
