You've just blown my mind.

That actually works. On every level.

Does it make a new hope the weakest one though? Would it be seen that way?

I think it does make A New Hope the weakest one. But only barely. I'd say they go...

So the trilogy begins with a set of heroes who all die for some information, and then picks up with some completely different heroes who are all beaten, captured, or mutilated by the end? Durd's trilogy appears to wrap with it was all for nothing and the empire won?

I mean I'm in.

Wait. Is it possible now that Bail Organa wasn't on Alderaan when it blew up? He was at Yavin like while the Rogue One Mission was ongoing, and it really wasn't far after that that it got blown up.
