See the       wording 'rough plans' above. It's as if you are arguing with       yourself. :\              > What is true is that George Lucas was reportedly already       > working on the       > stories for new movies before he sold out to Disney.       > Whether those       > stories were kept by the original scriptwriter or JJ       > Abrams re-write is       > unknown (or even if they were actually part of the Saga       > at all, and not       > separate movies like the Ewok ones).              Reportedly what Abrams and the other script writers are       doing is based on what George Lucas wrote.
