If you had asked me last November, I would have been pumped. Now I am just skeptical.
I can only hope that whoever makes the new movies actually knows and respects Star Wars lore, unlike RJ and KK.

Let's hope the GoT Trilogy replaces the RJ Trilogy.

But these new movies don't have to follow lore so strictly as they are going to have new characters and settings. If these movies take place in the far past or far future and depict the Jedi as a bunch of mushroom eating gypsy hippies then that's what they were. What's cool about this is that ability to twist the lore and show different things.
TFA and TLJ had to follow the lore because they're part of the main series, but these movies are somewhat more independent of time constrictions. Who knows what the Jedi were a million years ago or in the future?

Don't care, GOT is overrated. Looks like no more Rey, Finn Poe for quite a while after EP IX.

Yeah, but it's supposed to be the same galaxy, right? So mostly what I am talking about is how the Force works. TLJ did not follow that lore, in my opinion, and, due to how TLJ's story unraveled, TFA retroactively does not follow established lore on that topic either. And even though Disney swept the EU history under the rug, some things are still canon, like the 1,000 year disappearance/plot of the Sith. I can only hope that things like this are revered. And if it turns out to have nothing to do with anything ever mentioned in one of the films, why call it Star Wars? |

If its movies that take place in the past then I hope that they would show things that are building blocks for future stories.
If they take place in the future, then I'm fine with giving them a little more latitude since things should progress and develop.

I agree on that, but I'd prefer that if the Force is used as a device, it's the Force we learned about in the OT and the PT. |
