Will's Imperial Idea

We see that by typing the Star Wars Ideas label auto-finishing kicked in, which means we've done this before. Inshallah. So here's the first idea.

A Mandalorian style TV Show about three or four young Imperial officers that begins with them hearing about the destruction of the Death Star and ends with the events in the immediate aftermath of the Battle of Endor.

One officer can serve on a star destroyer*, another on a base, one on the Imperial staff, one commands a squad of Storm Troopers**, and so on. They're loyalty is tested and in the process, we are introduced to life in the Imperial Navy.

*One serves on a star destroyer combing through the Death Star wreckage and finds Lord Vader.
**Yes, on Hoth.

Un-Happy Star Wars Day

We're not mad. We're not disappointed. We just don't care anymore. We haven't even bothered to see the last film, whose name we can't even remember and can't be bothered to look up.

We all understand how and why George Lucas effed up the prequels. He could do whatever he wanted and ran the whole thing himself. Had that been true in the beginning, all three movies would have been disasters. George had to listen to Alan Ladd Jr in 1976. Empire and Jedi were competently written and directed by men who were not George Lucas.

The Sequels, well, we're just not in the mood to go there.

I don't.

All week we'll be discussing Star Wars ideas.
