Who knows... They should have done them instead of the prequels we had

i have this book called the complete illustrated guide to star wars (or something along those lines) and it makes mention of another trilogy taking place after the original. han and leia have twins, both are "strong with the force", one is named after anakin, but other than that, i can't remember what the main conflict was.

given that the best film of the series wasn't directed by lucas, maybe they should take that idea and roll with it....and no more jar jar type characters, use actual sets and actors instead of blue-screening the whole fucking thing, focus more on characters instead of huge CGI-battle scenes...there's lot of flaws with the new trilogy that need to be addressed before they even consider a new set of movies.

edit: and every star wars fan needs to get on youtube and watch Red Letter Media's in-depth review (crucifixion) of the new star wars films...it's fucking hilarious.

I agree Prof, the characters really are the most important thing... too much blue screen is just not needed...

Meh....there was a time I would've jizzed my pants over this. Now I couldn't give a fuck less. Leave it alone George. The magic's all gone.

It better have Grand Admiral Thrawn in it.

Oh yeah, and that Imperial commander chick who runs the Starburst or Starcrusher or Suncrusher or whatever the hell it's called in the books. Because she's freakin' hot. It's not often that I feel my jeans squeezing over a book cover -- but she's just hot.

I think the new trilogy should also have alot of naked scenes with Winona Ryder in it, because I want to see that. Anyway, I digress...

What's this thread about again?

could.
not.
give.
a.
fuck.

That ship ship has sailed. i no longer get that excited feeling as a science fiction enthusiast for star wars, its a parody of itself now. hell, mass effect is a videogame not a movie and when the trailer for mass effect 2 came out i was more excited for than a star wars trailer since return of the jedis trailer i saw on a vhs before i got my hands on it yknow?

Actually there have been a few articles on sites like i09, boing boing or the like talking about Mass effect being this generations star wars. At the time i was kind of 50/50, but i did grow up in a world were as a kid games were a joke that politicians attested made you stupid and gave you brain cancer, but films were okay. Its odd to show star wars to a kid nowadays and its boring crap that imitates earlier westerns and samurai flicks. without the glasses of nostalgia they found the stories in mass effect about the genophage, the reappears and all the little tidbits so much more enthralling. but it is a videogame so they have an infinite amount of time at there own leisure to discover these things, not 2 hours in one sitting which cant really compare in terms of showing as much of a world as you can y'know?
Though personally the games killed star wars for me, not the prequels bad as they were, theres only so many times lucasarts can shit our the licensing for something else to occur in the mos eisely bar or that generator station on hoth y'know?

but i was that rare heretic who preferred stargate to trek or wars so there we are.

I'm only ready for this if Lucas is. I'd see it anyway if Han, Luke, and Chewie were in it. As disappointed as I was in the prequels, at least it would all come to a semi close. The stuff I read said that the Emperor returns, Luke goes to the Dark Side, Chewie dies, and Han becomes an alkie. Lucas' chance to redeem himself and give us the dark version of it all, I love the original trilogy but the prequels were atrocious, except for the last. I want more, more, more.

The worst thing about the Star Wars expanded universe- Hard to pinpoint actually. Most of it was garbage. All of those super weapons just kept getting more and more ridiculous, and i certainly hope that they stay away from them.

Now, Grand Admiral Thrawn, I could get behind.

**Mike70** · 24-Oct-2010

call me crazy but i have no desire to see a 70 year old han solo. harrison ford is 68 now, so by the time this thing gets off the ground...well you do the math. mark hamill is 59...ok i think you all get the point.

**slickwilly13** · 24-Oct-2010

Lucas should have attempted this during the late 80's or early 90's. The last movie was released in '83. That was over 27 years ago when I was in kindergarden. Has anyone seen what Carrie Fisher looks like now? It's bad. Years of drug abuse caught up with her.

**mista_mo** · 24-Oct-2010

I would love to see the exploits of the solo family as they are set up in an old folks home...IN SPACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCE!

***Neil*** · 24-Oct-2010

I'd only be interested if someone else helped Lucas write them, and Lucas had nothing to do with directing them...

Lucasfilm might be better off with another animated cartoon series. All of the original Star Wars actors are ready for retirement. Doubt they would have much of a presence in any new live action series, outside of a cameo in the pilot episode.
