If the clone wars being made into the prequels from a throwaway line. Then surely Leia can mention the help the few Jedi have been to the creation of the rebellion with a single sentence. Galen Maren, Ahsoka Tano, Cal Kestis(should he be added too?).
I'd like that too, but I was imagining this more as a situation where the Apprentices make appearances in fairly minor roles in the OT. Like, they don't need to appear in
New Hope, so a reference is fine, then in
Empire Strikes Back they make their first cameo, like [First Son(?)] Galen Marek is there marching alongside Vader after the Battle of Hoth and Ahsoka gives Luke directions to Dagoba in a brief holo call, and then finally in
Return of the Jedi Ahoska (and Rex) is there with Han and the Rebels during the Battle of
Kahsyyk Endor...all combined, appearances and references to them shouldn't be more than five minutes
combined [across all three movies].
I think it'd be such an interesting thing, to see what kind of impact Anakin/Vader has had directly on people and juxtapose both of those extremes, giving a little bit more tension to Luke attempting to redeem his father.
Luke: "There are Jedi in the rebellion?"
Leia: "There were."
Damn.
What a wham line, like wow.
Actually, I'm going to give a challenge...
George working on Star Wars.
George Lucas sat in his office, surrounded by a mess of papers, books, and red string. He had been lost in thought for hours, trying to make sense of the complex worldbuilding he was committing to Star Wars.
He had always been fascinated by the idea of creating an entire universe, full of different planets, species, and technologies. But as he delved deeper into the details, he realized just how daunting a task it was.
The red strings crisscrossed through the room, connecting different ideas and concepts. Each strand represented a different plot point, character arc, or piece of technology. Some were thick and tangled, representing the more complex elements of the Star Wars universe, while others were thin and simple, representing smaller details that added color and depth to the world.
As he stared at his work, he felt a sense of pride and accomplishment. He knew that the Star Wars universe was far from perfect, but he had poured his heart and soul into it. Every detail, no matter how small, had been carefully considered and crafted.
But despite his dedication, he couldn't shake the feeling that something was missing. Some intangible element that would take Star Wars from a series of movies to a cultural phenomenon.
He sighed and took another sip of his coffee, feeling the weight of his responsibility as the creator of Star Wars. He knew that the fate of the universe he had created rested on his shoulders, and he couldn't rest until he had uncovered that missing piece.
With a renewed determination, George Lucas set to work. The red strings danced before his eyes as he wove new ideas and concepts into the tapestry of the Star Wars universe. Each piece added a new layer of complexity and depth, until the universe he had created was so vivid and real that it felt like it could exist beyond the confines of the movies.
He smiled, feeling a sense of satisfaction as he looked around his office. The red strings still hung haphazardly across the room, but now they represented not just chaos, but a carefully constructed vision of the world he had created.
As he leaned back in his chair, he knew that Star Wars would continue to evolve and grow, but he was confident that he had laid the foundation for something truly special. And for that, he was proud.
"Hey George, just stopping by to see how you're doing..." his friend Bruce trailed off, after having suddenly opened his office door, staring at the culmination of his work and the nineteen plus cups of coffee scattered everywhere, "...George, what the fuck."
George blinked, and realized that not only was the sun only starting to rise but that he was completely, utterly
starving.
