Nathan Fillion would make an excellent Han Solo MkII.
Just thinking about that possibility feels so good it hurt... Fillion was born to play the role only someone messed up his birth date. Now we just need a character for Summer Glau?
[MENTION=8519]Eliseo[/MENTION]; I think at this point we'll be getting a new canon level. Something below G similar to what they did for TCW. It really depends on how badly they chose to retcon EU stories.
[MENTION=2088]Flonne[/MENTION]; Han Solo Trilogy is a bit too juvenile for VII-IX not to mention completely the wrong timeline. I could see them spinning it into a cartoon though
The whole Jedi Academy thing would make a terrible movie based on existing writing. The EU in general has made Luke OP to the point of silliness. No one would ever by into that much power and he would be completely unrelatable. Not to mention the only interesting characters would be Corran Horn and Kyp Durron. All the others (excepting Kyle Katarn shenanigans) are completely forgettable.
I could be OK with them retconning some of it as long as they keep some of the good parts. The Sun Crusher would make a great plot line for instance. The Jedi Academy founding seems a natural progression for the story and nicely dodges the holiness that is the Thrawn Trilogy. Any rewrites there would have the fans wanting blood, myself included.
