Quote:While he must know the movies and the generality of the SW universe, you can toss him in either before or well after the trilogy... He'll see things that remind him of the movies but dismiss them as "naahh... couldn't be. Must be a coincidence..." As an example, you could have him meet Mace Windu shortly after he became a Jedi Knight or something....
Star Wars would be fun, but for the moment I'm not considering it. Basically, Doug has to be ignorant of transfictionality until at least DW10. To this end, he's not an anime fan, nor does he know any more about Science Fiction than can be found in general pop culture. Star Wars is one of those things that, especially at his age, with his family in the movie business, and generally being immersed in American pop culture, he couldn't help but know about. Throwing him into that universe would put him somewhere he would easily recognize as "fictional" back home; so if I do write something like this, it would have to be after DW10 -- which is to say, not to be written for a long, long time.
Just a thought...
