The following does NOT contain spoilers for, 'Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens'.
Please do not post spoilers for the Force Awakens as not all have seen it.
Including myself. Be nice ;-;
In 1999, the beloved Star Wars series continued! In what was expected to be the next pinnacle of cinema, the long awaited "Episode I: The Phantom Menace" was released!
...
and, it wasn't exactly what we had all hoped for. In fact, it's debatable that Mr. Lucas might have dementia. Almost everything about the original trilogy was gone, and the one arc we we're all looking forward to (the Rise and Fall of Anakin Skywalker) was a poorly written mess.
but, what if it was re-imagined? With the Force Awakens released, a receiving tons of positive reactions (and our money), what better time to wipe our memories of the prequels with our own head-canon?
What if there was no "Naboo" and, instead, Padme Amidala had been a senate head for the Royal Family of Alderaan?
What if Anakin wasn't a young boy, but a teenager (think Episode 2, Ani) when discovered by Qui-gon Jin? Creating a parallel between him and his son in regards of, 'he's too old'. Or, at least a more realistic one. (It also makes Ani and Padme's relationship less creepy.)
There is a lot of potential here for a great story, I just need help planning a great premise!
