That's interesting, but I thought the Jedi Order has been mostly decimated or near extinct?

In the books (I don’t know if they are official or not) Luke rebuilt the Jedi Order by building a Jedi Academy on Yavin 4. Luke's New Jedi Order began with a group of only twelve students, gradually expanding to include Force-sensitive beings with various levels of training and experience. In episode 6 (third one made) we find out that Leia also has “the force”.

Yeah, rumors early on were some of the sanctioned books were the basis of the new trilogy including some of the villains. The whole Clonetrooper/Stormtrooper thing reminded me of the situation from the Star Trek series where how were they going to explain the physical evolution of Klingons which was touched on in a DS9 episode suggesting something freaky happened.

How was that Klingon physical discrepancy even explained?

The Flu. Yes strange as it sounds the Flu made the ridges vanish. This was Enterprise's explanation. The Klingons were messing with the remains of Genetically engineered humans, and after some experiments created a mutilation strain of the flu virus. The virus got out because apparently the Klingons never learned to isolate and perform a biohazard clean up... Any way it spread across the empire. Killing Klingons until Doctor Flox cooked up a vaccine, but the vaccine still introduced the changes with out the death. I guess as generations went by the Klingon's ridges returned.

Ridge or no ridge a dozen or so Klingon's still got their butts wupped by a single genetically engineered "human" named, Kahn in ST in Darkness. Still not happy about it.:p:(:mad:

Harrison Ford is old enough to be the father of early thirty twin Jedi’s. Jesse Plemons would be great as Han Solo’s son. He has a similar look and similar voice.

It will be interesting to see who they get to play the sister. She would need to be athletic and believable as a Jedi. Any thougts?

Most of the popular TV series now, like Haven, Warehouse 13, etc.

I'm a big fan of Trek, the last sci-fi series i really enjoyed was Caprica. I prefer sci-fi that's either philosophical or didactic in nature, the whole adventure series stuff nowadays is pretty shallow and i can't be bothered to follow them if they're no deeper than a soap opera, same reason i've given up on a lot of comic books as well.

Shows like Haven, Warehouse 13 and Falling Skies are what made me cut my cable they're not that good. Haven and Warhouse 13 didn't hook me. Falling Skies is like a bad sci-fi version of those Chinese war dramas.
