Discussion What planets or scenes would you like to see in Ep VII?

I think Coruscant and Naboo should be shown briefly if only to link all 9 films together, I want to know what Coruscants role has been in the story....im also wondering aboutthe news reports about a scottish location, i wonder what that planet will be

 

Oh, yeah! *facepalm*
Tosche Station is a city?

 

Tosche Station is in Anchorhead.

For me, definitely Tatooine, Coruscant (I'd be surprised if we didn't see it), and Dagobah. Planets established in the SW universe but never seen on film would be ideal to see in the new movies, like Nar Shadda, Corellia, etc. I'm pretty sure we'll see more of Yavin IV in one or all of the the ST, as it should be where Luke has his Jedi academy.

 

What does this mean for our old buddy Exar?

 

I really would love to see new planets or ones mentioned in passing but never seen. Expand the universe. It's a big universe. Show new planets and ones never seen.

But, it really has to serve the story.

If you have a story point of Han leaving the republic behind after being cajoled into joining corellian forces into intercepting some new enemy, you could feature corellia.

I really don't like the idea of domesticated Han but how can you just reverse the path he was on at the end of ROTJ? Maybe if you combined it with one of his kids sneaking on board the Falcon to help her dad out when he leaves for corellia, it could be.......interesting.............or not?

 

The Forbidden Planet.

 

This has never made sense to me. Yavin is a horrible place. Other then some buildings it has zero infrastructure. It's remote, making it both difficult to resupply and defend. All supplies must come from off-world. All workers must come from off world. On top of that it's an Ancient Sith planet. Even more of a reason to AVOID it.

 

in the EU

 

It ALWAYS made sense to me... Luke wanted a location that was remote & isolated & wild for his Jedi students, something akin to Dagobah--but not just bulldozing Yoda's hut to build a new temple. Yavin had the ancient ruins, had the benefit of at least ONE pyramid already retrofit for 'modern' habitation thanks to the old Rebel base, and it was still largely untamed & remote. He didn't know about the ancient Sith history there until later--but, aside from Exar's actual spirit, that gave it something of a "Dagobah cave" vibe.

I don't think Luke will have an 'academy' like the EU's version, with him having trained a dozen students at once in the first class, but the location would be a nice EU element to keep, and be a nice nod to showcase how the Jedi aren't beholden to the Senate anymore (however the government stuff breaks down) by having their base be on Coruscant within spitting distance of the Senate building.

No Tatooine. No. Five movies is enough. It's a backwater ball of dust. Leave it be. Thousands of other worlds with two suns for a nice nostalgic sunset shot in the ST. Thousands of other out-of-the-way backwater worlds to visit. Thousands of other wretched hives of scum & villainy (given Obi-Wan's exaggerations & 'certain point of view' stuff, there's no reason to believe Mos Eisley was THE most scummy & villainous place in the galaxy, either, especially when the movie itself didn't show us much to warrant such a description anyway)

 

poor Greedo would disagree

 

Greedo's a bounty hunter--they can be found anywhere. Doc Evazan and Ponda Baba are drunks/thugs, not terribly uncommon in bars. No, we saw zip to warrant the "most wretched hive of scum & villainy" description. Hell, Jabba's Palace was a more wretched hive of scum & villainy, so right there Mos Eisley's out of the top spot.

 

Corellia. I must see Corellia. Korriban would be cool to.

 

Just one scene on Tatooine and that involves Boba Fett...... Want to see the planets named in the films that we have not seen yet, Kessel, Malastere, Sullust etc...

 

Why a scene on Tatooine involving Boba Fett? Does it take him 35 years to crawl outta the sarlacc? But yes to Malastare, Sullust (not so much Kessel... the Jedi Academy Trilogy made me sick of Kessel in less than 12 parsecs)

 

Coruscant, Corellia and Korriban would be cool to see.

 

I'd like to see the planet Staarbuks, home of Barriss Koffee, and the planet Jonsun n' Jonsun, home of Yarael Poof (AKA Q tip head). I'm thinking Disney is going to have some sort of product placement in these movies, including its own trademarks, So they might include the planet Do'nald, which is where the "sitting ducks" live in the SW universe.

 

Manaan.

 

ok nitty gritty time.....what (if any sets/interiors/exteriors) do you want to see in the ST....so you want to see Coruscant...what part?...i think these selections will really give insights into the stories we want....here is mine

1.Falcon interior - (cockpit and chessboard)
2.Coruscant - (senate, how much will it have changed since the PT?)
3.Naboo palace -(my favourite 0interior of the saga) - tho hated the ultra green of the battlefield
4.Kamino - (clone factory)
5.Bespin - (Banaquet room - one of my fave saga scenes)
6.Yavin - (Ceremonial hall)
7.Tatooine - (Saarlac/MosEisley Cantina)

 

We'll certainly see the Falcon and there's a good chance for Coruscant.

The others, not so likely. In fact, I hope we don't see them again and move on to new places. Especially Tatooine. Sick of it for life.

 

agree to disagree.... my fave place but they prob would not want another Tunisian weather disaster

 

Jabba's palace. It would be interesting to see what's become of it in the intervening years.

 

There will be continuity and discontinuity with the sets.

Continuity for the existing characters we know about. Discontinuity for all the new characters and how the new story develops.

One of the great things about SW is its expansive vision such as the number of different planets.

I hope to see more discontinuity than continuity regarding sets. But things like the Falcon are pretty much a given as are places like Coruscant (senate).

 

The only one of the settings that the OP mentioned that I want to see return is the Falcon. Let the planet settings be entirely new. If we keep revisiting those old worlds then then these movies will start to look too similar to the old ones and we need them to be fresh and distinct. Not nostalgia trips!

 

its been about new places and nostalgia since 1977
