Right????
Sounds great! This way all our favorite characters can be used.
What specific years should be used for the Vito and Vincent timelines?
Then we can construct our main plot for each timeline.
Then a couple of subplots for our supporting Corleone characters.
We'll need to construct some new characters, too!
When we actually start writing the script, it would probably be best to have a few parallels to the other films, since FFC did so in his trilogy.
For example, our Vincent/Micheal timeline opening scene should probably be a celebration of some sort, etc.
