CT Spinoff film eras

Is anyone else bugged that the spinoff films all take place in the Dark Times? That is to say, between ROTS and ANH. I personally would live to see an adventure involving some original characters between ANH and ESB. The main character could be a lost Jedi Knight who comes out of hiding after sensing the destruction of his home planet of Alderaan, grappling with his temptations to fall to the Dark Side as he takes on the task of locating and destroying Darth Vader. In the same film we could have a subplot where the Rebels are scouring the galaxy for a new base of operations due to Yavin being compromised. They seem to have struck an uneasy alliance with a pirate syndicate in the Outer Rim for this purpose, but just when the Rebels feel safe the pirates sell them out to the Empire. At the end of the film our lost Jedi confronts Vader on the flagship of the Super Star Destroyer and reveals to him that the boy who destroyed the Death Star was (drum roll) his son!

 

How would that "lost Jedi" know that Vader is Anakin and that Luke is his son?

 

Idk. I wrote it by the seat of the pants. It's got a lot of holes.

 

I'm bugged by Disney doing pretty much everything with the OT template. So an ANH-ESB spinoff would just bug me more.

Plus, Rebels has already done the lost Jedi coming out of the shadows (multiple Jedi, actually), grappling with the Dark Side, obsession with beating the Sith, confronting Vader, Rebels looking for bases, allying with pirates - except that Rebels actually did it with strong character arcs and a proper conclusion. This idea just ends on a tentpole rather than a dramatic resolution for the main character.

 

They are going to be making Star Wars movies every year (eventually two or more most likely) for the next hundred years and beyond...I’m sure there will be dozens of films in every era. Patrience!
