Star Wars fans torn over complete series reboot

Do we need a reboot or not?

Star Wars fans desperately want the franchise to be as good as it once was, and won’t settle for anything less.

To do this, it’s believed the only way forward for Star Wars is a reboot, telling new stories with different characters without relying on continuous nostalgia bait and cheeky cameos.

Ideally we need drama, and maybe the upcoming re-release of Star Wars: Revenge Of The Sith will remind us of that.

“In my opinion I think Star Wars should do a complete timeline reset, go far back to the Old Republic and explore all of those stories,” said Reddit user iam_hyfive, going on to say, “To me, the Skywalker era is so tainted and ruined, I feel a brand new/fresh era is a good start to a better Star Wars.”

They then opened the floor to other ideas, and the prevailing opinion was that the future of Star Wars needs to be new, not a rehash of what’s already been.

“I want to say the Old Republic, but only if it's done faithfully like the EU,” began one commenter, “I don't want Disney to go there if they want to run all over the original content and change stuff to be worse again like they did with their version of NJO..I honestly don't care where they set the stories, just adapt something from EU very genuinely.”

Another idea was: “Bounty Hunters, each episode follows a new Bounty Hunter... kinda like the Ballad of Buster Scruggs.”

Some fans don’t think the problem is the setting or characters though, rather not enough time went into planning the whole thing.

“All they have to do is take a few years to properly plan out a new trilogy either before Phantom Menace or after Rise and build off that from there. It really isn’t hard to make a good trilogy if you know where it’s going from the start,” read one fan’s opinion.

With a new trilogy on the way, perhaps this time it’ll have a coherent beginning, middle and end by the time it reaches cinemas, here’s hoping anyway.
