Well TFA, TLJ, and TROS were never canon but looks like Disney is publicly stating so soon.

Well that would be a huge slap in the face to the actors, producers, writers, and directors that worked on the ST.

And wow, I can't believe they're gonna use that bullshit from Rebels to do it lmao.

Eh TFA was pretty good tbh. They could easily just redo 8 and 9 instead of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Also lol at doing this for ST but not PT.

This too. It's not like rebooting isn't the industry's favorite thing to do but I mean we just finished the ST.

It kinda blows my mind they're using the Rebels mystical time dimension to explain both why Palpatine survived in the first place and why he's not in the new timeline (all of this is still rumors of course). I guess it's the perfect setting for ass pulls, and kinda opens up the whole franchise to he's back because of the mystical dimension time bullshit lol.

I suppose Rebels itself did something like that, but it feels weird in the "main" canon.

Sorry but Ill wait for this to actually happen before I believe it. The fact that his main piece of evidence from Episode IX is that there was a scene with Rey and mirrors even though that was already established in The Last Jedi makes me question the authenticity of these rumors.

Why do people act like they need a canon backdoor to retcon it away?
All they need to do is to say Yeah, Episode 6, 7, 8 and 9 are no longer canon and it is done.

The bar from those first 2.5 movies is a pretty damn big hurdle. Add the fact that a lot of OT fans saw them before the PT and of course they will feel more strongly for them. I was at the right age when the PT started but nowadays, the reason I like them is not for the reason that George intended. They're a mindless hate watch. I watched the OT again recently as well as TPM and the difference is astronomical.

As for this rumour news, I don't know what's more embarrassing. The fans who want it or the studio for entertaining the idea. Making the new movies a "Skywalker continuation" was a cheap play to make. Just move on from it for good.

(Or maybe it will turn out good and I'm a grump, and I will like it, lol)

The real slap in the face is that Finn became the new Jar Jar Binks instead of a serious character.

Yeah Finn and Poe did s*** all. Captain Phasma was the new Boba Fett. Maz Kanata did nothing after the 1st appearance. In all honesty I thought Luke was fine. My only problem with using the original trio is that they elevated the story to nothingness. Yeah sure Han helped progress Kylo a little bit forward. But the wreckage of the 3rd movie made it a bit of a waste. The inclusion of the original trio feels cheap in hindsight.

I meant the era as a whole.

You can't wipe out 1-3 without wiping out The Clone Wars, Rebels, Rogue One (technically), and Solo, among the books and comics that take place before the OT

Maybe in some sequel comics or TV shows we will get some alternate stories, but there is no way they just remake Episodes 7/8/9. My guess is they go the Mandalorian route, and make new stories w/ just some loose ties to the original movies.

I doubt this is true, but I'd be 100% on board if it was. TFA was an ok starting point, but TLJ tossed it all in the trash. ROS tried to take it out of the trash, but it was already trash at that point and it just got worse. Favreau knows what he's doing with the Mandalorian so I'd trust him with the franchise moving forward. I see them going an entirely different route though, either jump way in the past or in the future for the next mainline films.
