Why would 'modern Star Wars' be factored when two of the three guests appeared on the original trilogy
Reminder that "Modern Star Wars" at the time was the Prequel Trilogy, with Revenge of the Sith coming out 3 years earlier, with Yoda's Design being based on his Attack of the Clones/Revenge of the Sith design.
And The Apprentice/Starkiller was from a game that wasn't even out yet.
