Have you read the latest rumours to come out about the new movie? I don’t know about you but every time I read the new rumours on the supposed story line I do get quite worried! I know I’ve gone on before about what’s cannon and what Star Wars legend but my view is they shouldn’t really stray to far from the Star Wars legends. I know JJ Abrams has to make a film that’s new to all us Star Wars fans but the latest news completely distances its self from the books. Lets look at what we have….
the main bad guys of the film will be a group called “Jedi Hunters” Again as we don’t know anything about the plot of the new film here’s what my research brought up on the subject of Jedi hunters. During the second Jedi purge instigated by Palpatine some Jedi knights and padawans joined the Emperors secret intelligence unit becoming Inquisitors. After the battle of Endor those that new of the Emperors soon return ( as a clone) joined a splinter group called the Pantastar Alignment. In the new Star Wars animated series “Rebels” that’s coming out in autumn focuses alot on the inquisitors so until this comes out we still wont really know anything about these Jedi hunters.
Luke Skywalker has been busy with the last three decades of his life, spending all of his time fighting back the Jedi Hunters and impeding their missions. By the time we catch up with him, however, he is “outnumbered, tired, and in need of help. This part I really find hard to believe. Its like the last rumour that said there’s no New Republic. I cant really believe that Luke Skywalker has been fighting off all these Dark Jedi for the last 30 years all on his todd when he should have been getting on and starting up the new Jedi order. Again I go on about what’s cannon and what’s Star Wars Legends but again I say don’t stray to far from the books Mr JJ Abrams or you will find me hunting you down Inquisition style!!!!
I`m still waiting for my call from my informer so You are gonna have to wait to see what’s sweets they have had on set this week and who knows I might get something that give us a bit of insight on the new movie!!!!!! Here hoping!!!! May the Force Be With You!!!!!
