Can I get away with this Flash version of Star Wars 8?

Hi
I'd like to do a vid of some of my expectations for the Last Jedi Star Wars episode 8, and why it was a cluster-dunk and what I would have done.
I will do it in Anime, no pics of Daisy, Adam or John, just Hand Drawn Anime similarity. Macromedia Flash

Will Ryan Johnson and his Disney legal hydralisks track me down and redecorate my house with my intestines?
They sued a day care for having postings that looked similar to Tigger and Eyore for $1000,000 (Mike Meyers, Dr. Evil, ahem)
?
If I change Luke Skywalker to Matthew Herbertson and Ben Kenobi to Bill Genobili?
I read that a cartoon character can be copyrighted, and I'm certain that Disney has copyrighted a 25 year old girl wearing tattered cloth rags, with 3 hair circles on the back of her head - Rey.
Is there any way to do my own version of the story without being murdered, legally? I read that you can not copyright a story.

Thanks

I was just thinking about the exec standing up in a meeting trying to explain why they spent $100,000s suing someone for some reason.

Makes no difference why.

I'm just guess the exec responsible for something like this would likely lose their yearly bonus + potentially their job. :)

Thanks everyone
Thanks David.
I will call you as soon as I have a rough demo of my style of my film style to discuss violations and such. My characters won't look exactly like Rey, Luke, Kylo or anything. My vocal imitations might suck. I'll ask the dude next door and my bro, sisters and mom and dad to help
