Something I have yet to do.’

THE END of Episode VII
The story needs a lot of filling in, but this is just meant to be a
draft sketch. I am
Busy and don’t have the time just at the moment to do a full
screenplay, but could
Do so if I needed to. I am sure George Lucas himself could fill in
the rest of the
Screenplay quite well if he so desired.
I have a number of ideas for the next 5 movies, some quite good ones,
but a key
Idea in the next episode is the line ‘When Jedi and Sith fought side
by side,’ in
Reference to ancient days when they fought the Delenth.
