SWIU Version of
REVENGE OF THE JEDI




Go check in the Screening Room, for SWIU ROTJ. It's a short synopsis of my version of Revenge of the Jedi. I had originally called it ESB & ROTJ, but this didn't make any good sense, because ESB had nothing to do with what I replaced.

Here are some things I have already posted:

-Han dies in the carbonite.

-Lando is dragged into the Sarlacc pit.

-Luke and Leia begin their relationship together.

-Wookies on Endor, with Chewy as the peacemaker, help the Rebel Alliance.

-Leena, Luke's sister, is found on Endor, on a human settlement.

-Yoda did not die in ROTJ. He lived long enough afterwards, even to train Luke's children in the ways of the Jedi.

Now, here are some things that are of an 'Expanded Universe'. I will add on to them if I get enough replies to this thread.

-Leia sneaks away at night, while Luke is sleeping. She boards the Millenium Falcon, on the Rebel ship that was seen at the end of ESB (forgot name), and takes Lando and Chewy with her, who were taking room in the Falcon.

-They agree to try to save Han Solo, from Jabba, on the planet Geonosh. There, he has a hidden hideout that few know of. Lando knows of the hideout.

-Imperial ships follow the Falcon from a great distance. Leia, Lando, Chewy break into the hideout. There is a small battle. Leia quickly goes and unmelts Han, and finds out that he died while frozen. Jabba's henchman capture them, locking Lando and Chewy in the dungeons below the hideout. Leia is left to be the slave of Jabba.

-Luke sees these images in a dream, and gets aboard his X-Wing. The Imperial ships track him down, and follow him to the hideout. When he gets there, Lando and Chewy are about to be thrown into the Sarlacc pit, and Leia is chained to Jabba.

-Imperial Stormtroopers come. There is a large battle. During the battle, Lando falls into pit, tries to get back out, but a tentacle grabs him and drags him down, where he undoubtedly dies.

-During the fight, Leia chokes Jabba with the chain tide to her.

-Luke, Leia, Chewy, escape barely.



----------------

-They go the a Rebel spaceship, and attend the meeting on the new plans to destroy the Death Star.
-That night, Luke and Leia begin a relationship.

----------------

-They travel to Endor, etc. Epic (and classic) speeder battle in the forests of the moon.

- They meet up with Wookies, and Chewy serves as a translator of sorts, and gets them to join.

----------------

-Luke feels the force drawing him towards a nearby village of humans.

-Finds Leena, and tells her of who she truly is, after hearing the voice of Obi-Wan telling him that he is right indeed, and that she is his sister.

----------------

-Battle of Endor.

-Luke goes to Death Star, etc.

-Leena, Chewy, and Ackbar lead X-Wings against Death Star, and destroy it.

----------------

Ending: Large celebration in Leena's village, and Wookies are present. Luke, Leia, Leena, Chewy, 3PO, and Artoo, are grouped together, watching the celebration.

NOTE: Everything I didn't explain in further detail, followed closely enough to the normal ROTJ (Return of the Jedi), that it was unnecessary to ramble on. I wanted to give a general idea about the major differences. I will be adding more things, and putting new twists in.

ALSO NOTE: I will never, by any circumstance, ever be putting all of this into script form. Just so you know. This will just be a sort of our Expanded Universe and Data Bank. Small snippets, pictures, notes, and descriptions is all there will be.

Maybe more epic battle at the end, when Luke and Vader team against Emperor?

Oh, and make Emperor`s guards force users.

I could do that. The guards being able to use the force sounds pretty neat. Good idea.

Yes, screw rule of two, therefore Yoda and Luke`s sister might have someone to battle- I could see a duel between Yoda and Emperor but with none lightsabers- only the force! It will end in stalemate and Yader`s choice would destroy the Emperor!

Oh, and make one of darksiders an attractive female, I love hot villains!

Actually, the Yoda duel idea might not be such a good idea, it seems you do not want to abandom plot that much.

And there would also be the fact of getting Yoda to the Death Star. Actually, Melkor, you bring up attractive female. I thought of this idea, but decided I had enough with Leena in the story. BUT, I could change that.

Does 'Sinnedra' sound like a good Sith-Apprentice name?

Hmm, nice name actually. It makes sense that Palpatine was aware of Vader`s possible betrayal( like he tried in ESB), so he brought few of lesser apprentices( Sith Knights perhaps, i like this title) with him to Deathstar, in case Luke is turned and teams with Vader.

And you might want to wait after you see ROTS which according to most reviews is much better than other prequels and could provide some inspiration. Didn`t you have this feeling from trailer and some great TV Spots?( sorry if I have hurt feelings with mentioning it.)

I think it will be better than TPM, and AOTC, yes. The previews were awesome, I mean what do you expect? I will wait for inspiration from ROTS, but rough drafts for our new storyline will be put into action asap.

One problem with the plotline is this...

Why would Luke not originally be involved in rescuing Han? That doesn't make sense and it just seems like a convenient plot device to allow him to go and rescue everyone else later.

On a positive note, I love that poster and if that cheap plot device is what it takes to set up such a scene as seen in that poster, then perhaps the said plot device can be excused. wink.gif

Luke would have went and saved Han also, first. Go to the Screening Room, and read the ROTJ Version there, I have up already. It explains that Luke was sleeping, and Leia, Lando, and Chewy went to Jabba's hideout without him. This starts the next day after Empire Strikes Back.
