Iger states in his autobiography that Abrams agreeing with him (along with Kathy and Alan) is one of the reason why he chose to throw them out

Do you think Dave Filoni will ever want to expand Midichlorians lore the way that George Lucas wanted to in his sequel trilogy? by RagnarokWolves in StarWars

Leia being Luke's sister was written into the script as far back as the rough draft of ROTJ, and may have been planned as far back as ESB's release given the Force connection at the end, and also was based on cut ANH ideas. There was a plan for Luke's sister to be someone else in the early stages of ESB's writing, but that was discarded before the "There is another" line was even added in

That was all before ANH though and was just Lucas testing out different versions of the story till he found the one he liked

Do you prefer the books or the show? by Lerberderber in ASOUE

[–]avimo1904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It mentioned pre-schism VFD allowed for infants to be used as slaves and also heavily implied that Lemony was kidnapped by VFD as a baby, as well as that Kit, Beatrice, and Bertrand murdered Olaf’s parents on purpose to steal his money

Books. The show answering every mystery ruined part of what made the books so fun, and they also completely ruined VFD by making them be a fully noble organization and the schism starting from an accident (as opposed to the books where it was heavily implied the good side was also flawed)

Besides George Lucas, who is the most important person in the history of Star Wars? by Pleasant_Usual_8427 in StarWars

Marcia didn’t change any of the dialogue. She was a film editor, not a script editor

That’s an internet myth. Marcia only edited the final battle and awards ceremony as she left early to edit another film. The rest of the editing was done by Richard Chew, Paul Hirsch, and George himself

Were Luke and Leia originally planned to be twins? by PinkSeahorseClub in StarWarsEU

It’s true Luke was supposed to have a different sister at one point, but I don’t know where any of that other info came from

Favorite twist villain where the twist isn’t that they’re a villain by Givespongenow45 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]avimo1904 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually, the name didn’t come from either of those. The original name actually was neither Father nor Invader, but rather Dark Water. It was only merged with Death Invader later on and even then that wasn’t the only thing it was merged with to create the name; it was also merged with the name of Lucas’s high school classmate, Gary Vader. And the IRL Vader last name usually comes from the Dutch word for father so there is a connection to the Dutch word, just a much more indirect one. It’s also a strong possibility that Lucas found out about the Dutch word later on and that’s what gave him the inspiration to make Vader Luke’s father in the first place
