Star Wars: 14 Crazy Rumours Lucasfilm Started About The Empire Strikes Back In 1980

1. Time Travel

And here's my favourite, a theory Miller peppered in several times to really make it seems genuine - we're going to get time-travel. And not parsec fiddling; straight-up, Back To The Future-esque timeline meddling. There's some crazy variations in how it'd work - some have the characters going backwards, some far into the future - but it's all bonkers:

The Millennium Falcon falls into a black hole with Luke, Leia, Han, Chewie and Darth Vader aboard and travels through time.Relating vaguely to that black hole rumor, it is said that Han Solo and Chewie land on a desert planet where they meet time-travelers from Earth's 13th century who are trying to fight off Stormtroopers with catapults and crossbows.The Millennium Falcon passes through a time warp, and Luke, Han and Chewbacca end up fighting in the Clone Wars, side by side with Luke's father and Obi Wan Kenobi.

Damn, I actually kinda want a movie of Luke fighting alongside Anakin in The Clone Wars now...

What do you make of these planted theories? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments.
