I don't want the Zahn books because I already know what happens.
They need to jump far into the future IMO. Leave almost all current character behind. R2 and C3PO can still be around.

As I said, switch up the Thrawn stuff. They don't have to make the books, but I'd like to see Thrawn on screen.

There are at least 84 million reasons to disagree with you. In the words of my buddy, "Disney's trying to market an action/sci-fi movie. But it's Disney, so I already know there won't be enough swearing or titties or violence, so fuck that."
EDIT: Not that I'm suggesting Disney should turn Star Wars into Die Hard in space, but they will find a way to fuck it up and make it feel distinctly un-Star Wars.

A duller shade of blue than Dr. Manhattan plus clothes?

I'm stunned that there is something you don't like.

Thats what they need to do. Star Wars has never been sci-fi. Its action/fantasy or Lord Of The Rings in space.
Make some cool ships/aliens/and bad guys and start swinging the lightsabers and blowing up planets!

Thrawn needs to happen. The source material is that good.

Lucas already wrote a script for SW7, and it aint Thrawn.

Fuck you, Lucas.

"It's an original story," a LucasFilm source tells me.
Ouch.
According to my sources, Episode 7 will literally be nothing you've ever seen or read before from the Star Wars universe.
I feel a great disturbance in the force...

If that means no Skywalkers or Solos then I am cool with it. If it means no Jedi/Sith then not so much.

Star Wars, Episode 7 ... Starring Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez. Mark my fucking words. It's Disney. They will find a way to rape it.

Harrison Ford ok with playing Han again.
Kind of shocking considering how much he has pretended like Star Wars never happened.

Screenwriter hired for new trilogy.
Not only that, but...
-The treatments are already in.
-He's been working on them for months.
-Luke, Han, and Leia are apparently in them.

Featuring... their grand kids?

Well, it is Disney, so I expect there's going to be kids or something they can sell at their parks.
However, they have the experience of watching public outcry over the prequels, so I think they'll know not to go too far.
Plus, they just got done making The Avengers, and they see the huge success of Nolan's Batman...
I don't disagree with anyone who says they'll try to make it really family friendly, but I don't think it'll get to the absurd levels of 7 year old Darth Vader and Jar Jar Binks.
