Star Wars: EP 7-9

Am I incredibly insane, or is there another 3 story lines/Episodes to Star Wars?

Or better yet, are really that sure that III is the “final” chapter? Didn’t Lucas say that about Return of the Jedi? ((or so I was told, I wasn’t around the first time for that))
Also

Why do the Ewok Adventures and others not get as much press?

I hear Lucas was quoted as saying “This is a story about Anakin” Implying that another three films would be pointless.

What I would like to see is a complete remake of 4,5 and 6!

From what I remember, Lucas originally said he was planning two make three trilogies with Eps 7-9 to follow the prequels. Now he says he’s just going to quit after ROTS and not do 7-9.

shudder …nnnggnnhhnnn…

What? To my 25 year old brain they look dated.

It’s finally happend. I knew this day would come.
I’m 26! I’ve finally reached the age where I forget how old I am.

I appreciate the Zahn novels as fill-ins for Episodes 7-9. I don’t know if I’m alone there or not. But I’m pretty sure Lucas will hang up the sabers after ROTS.

Nope, you’re not alone. I came into this thread specifically to say that. If they were to make 7-9, Zahn’s novels would be an excellent source.

“Greedo shoots first,” dammit.

And the remastered Death Star explosion looks like ass.

Of course, he also said that Greedo shot first. Shows you how much credibility Lucas has.

Just happen to have the THX Laserdisc playing right now.
::sticks fingers in ears:: “there is no special edition there is no special edition there is no special edition jabba’s not in the first movie la la la la I can’t hear you” :stuck_out_tongue:

Are you nuts? Dated as they are, 4, 5, and 6 are marvels of storytelling compared to the dreck that 1 and 2 were. I swear to god that I wish I could just fix the glaring crap that Lucas pulled – the Ewoks, that f*cking child in Ep. 1, and the rest of the gratuitous child-pandering cuteness. Hell, if he had cast a 13-year-old as Anakin I’d forgive him Jarjar Binks.

I’m sure. But the prequels are going to look more dated when they’re 25-30 years old than the original movies do now. I think you’d just get three more bad Star Wars movies out of that arrangement.

Um, no.

Nothing can undo the horror that Jar Jar Binks has brought upon us.

Nothing.

Hey, he said if. And honestly, he makes a good point. It’d be easier to overlook the film’s insipid attempts at cuteness if we didn’t have the future Darth Vader saying “Yippee!” You could, in theory, forgive Jar Jar if that crap hadn’t pervaded the movie and screwed up characters who actually mattered.

This is an obvious joke. And it’s not funny, either.

I would like to see this as well, but only if they were made 20+ years from now after Lucas is long dead.

The only two parts which looked really bad to me was (1) Greedo scene, and (2) young Anakin as part of the ghost trio.

Seriously wtf??

I think he’s missing a great opportunity by not making the third trilogy. He could just declare that the only things that are canon are the movies, ignore all the novels that have been written, and make the third trilogy any damn way he wants to, rather than harnessing himself the way he did making the first trilogy.

That and the Jabba scene in “Special”(short bus) episode 4. It’s like “digitally enhancing” the Godfather so that Sollozo gives Vito a smack on the ass on the way out of the meeting.
