Cray Rumor Alert: Vader Returns!!1!!

Courtesy of a low-level British tabloid that's like the poor bloke's Sun or Daily Mail...Disney wants to resurrect Vader because they can't imagine Star Wars without him:

Sure, if they want to destroy everything Lucas set up with the prior six films! I mean, did the Express's creative writing department even see ROTJ? I guess they also assume nobody at Disney ever saw TPM or AOTC, two movies without Darth Vader that still made a lot of money. Vader as we knew him in Eps VI-VI didn't even appear until almost the end of ROTS, another movie that made a lot of money. Maybe he could appear in a nutty nightmare sequence or something, but Vader's not going to be the primary baddie in this new trilogy.
