Exactly, just yesterday we heard on the news that we are planning to be living on the moon and sending manned shuttles from there to mars by 2020. Lucas will take another 4 years for each movie, (If he makes them -- damn his procrastinating hide) that's 12 years... 2016+!

Word is that George Lucas has given the rights to any future SW projects (i.e. Eps 7, 8, 9) to his adopted son, and he will have the power to do with them as he wishes.

SELL! SELL! SELL!

When Lucas originally spoke about this back in the 80s he said that it would be centered around The children of the original cast. Of course he also said in an interview that there would be 9 total then 12 total then 6 total so who knows. Besides by the time he writes them the people will be less interested in space sagas cause we will be living on Mars and visiting with little green men from other systems.



LOL *keeps reading the entries*

Ok, well I have to agree that Star Wars went down hill with eps 1 and 2 (though I liked 1 cuz I totally fell in love with Qui-Gon, but then he died, so it lost what credit I would have given it) They were all about the CG and it took away from the story. Plus, I can't stand young Anikin
They made his lines too dorky, and the whole part with him flying this spaceship and blowing up the entire spacestation? *cough* yeah right.
Sorry, Lucas, you blew it. Should have quit while you were ahead and stuck with the original three.
Oh... and FIREFLY ROCKS!

There are rumors that Spielberg wants to direct the next trilogy and that if he did he would shoot all three back to back like The Lord Of The Rings. The entire original cast is excited to do it with the exception of Harrison Ford. Ford has said he would do it out of loyalty for Lucas because he gave him his start with Star Wars and Indiana Jones but he would want a smaller part or be killed off. I personally have enjoyed the prequels so far and to see the original gang together again with Spielberg at the helm would be fantastic.

I just want to say this as one of the many die hard SW fans. When I was a kid and I would be stuck at home sick I would climb on the couch and watch all three back to back. I LOVE those movies.

Again, that said. MAKE IT STOP!!!! DEAR GODDESS PEASE JUST MAKE IT STOP!!!!!!!!

Ep one and two were enough to make me want to stab my eyes out. When I watched Ep.One I thought "cant possibly get any worse!"

How very wrong I was.

So, to save society and the known 'verse from this insanity I beg you, don't do any more damage than has already been done. 'Cause I know, if they do make 7,8,&9 I will go and see them out of the hope that maybe this time it will be different. And again I will be struck with the urge to stab my eyes out.

I guess it would be good for Hammill though....

I always thought his career got the rough end of the stick....

Sad as it may sound, I thought he was great in the Wing Commander Games...

I dunno... I think Lucas had the Tim Zahn trilogy in mind as the "canon" storyline for 7,8, and 9 - and those take place only 5 years after the end of Jedi. Ford, Fisher, and Hamill wouldn't be able to reprise their roles - they've aged too much. I don't know that I'd really want to see sequels that didn't include Harry, Carrie, and Mark.

Hmm.. what about Peter Jackson directing SW 7-9? If he can tackle fantasy, maybe he can do sci-fi too.

I could live with that... if they could resolve the casting.

Maybe I'm just an overzealous Star Wars fan, but that's more plausible if you remember that he has the Force on his side, and that the Trade Federation Ships are crappy converted cargo ships with easily explodable reactors. Though young Anakin was an annoying

I thought episode 2 was much better than Episode 1. My expectations were lower, and they had a lot less Jar Jar Binks. Plus there wasn't as happy an ending. And the denizens of Naboo are annoying.
