They should just do what the comic book guys do. Set the new ones in an alternate dimension, which is almost but not quite entirely unlike Star Wars. Then, they could do whatever they want to, the fans can keep their cherished memories and believe they came from the TRUE universe. To top it all off, they can have a movie where the two realities join forces to battle some inter-dimensional-something-or-other. At least if they mentioned such a thing it might get the whiny fanboys to simmer down a bit.
