Have you heard, George Lucas to make 2 new Star Wars movies email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 90/100. sunslinger (305)1 year ago

Fresh from the rumor mill is that George Lucas has announced to Fox News that he will make not one, but two new live-action Star Wars movies! What's up with that?!Apparently, they will each be about an hour long and will be made for television. How do you feel about George's meddling of his very famous work? Do you think you have had enough of Star Wars?

Hmm... thought he has already explored all he could for the different aspects of the force and the Jedi knights?

what is he going to be showing this time? The uprising of the sith empire? A continuation of the clone wars?

The animation series that he did with cartoon Network was fantastic! Live action series? Is he planning on going the star trek way and make a TV series out of it?

Who really knows the workings of a genius, assuming that he is a genius. Maybe he just has too much time and money at hand and kept asking too many "What if"s.

I like the idea of a TV series spawned from the movie, maybe exploring minor or unseen characters rather than the main ones. Another movie or two would be nice, but how LucasFilm could possibly make that happen is beyond me. So many books and comic series have explored the before and after of the canon series of movies that there's little wiggle room for a whole new plot line without disrupting the "established" universe. Since Lucas signed off on all those books it would be kind of hard for him to turn around and say, "Well, that never happened."Being the cynic that I am, I presume he's just looking to make more money off of an already very profitable venture.(Hey, I own all the movies, plus the cartoon TV series, and most books, so I've definately done my part to line his wallet.) I can't gripe about that too much. The other half of me says maybe he really just enjoys what he's doing.


myLot reputation of 90/100. sunslinger (305)  1 year ago

Wow. I can tell that you are really an ardent fan. You nailed it on the head saying that both before and after the original six movies have been explored by both books and comics. I read some of the books - the dark nest trilogy and it was pretty good. I'm not sure how Lucas is gonna make it more interesting - maybe the beginning of Yoda?


Schehezerade (30)  1 year ago

Definately an ardent fan of the Star Wars universe. A history of Yoda would be interesting indeed. I wouldn't mind seeing Zahn's trilogy done in cinematic style, but I think it would deserve more than simply two one-hour movie slots on TV. I would also be somewhat afraid to see who they picked for some of the main characters.

ha ha... that would be moving even farther back than moving forward!
maybe George Lucas is looking at moving the story beyond Luke Skywalker after the 6th movie?

or maybe portray a side of dark vader we have never seen?
We have all seen his struggle to stay on the path of the force during his padawan days... and his temptation to the dark force has been obvious in the cartoon series. It was the death of his wife that pushed him towards the dark force.
For all you know, George Lucas might focus on dark vader, his internal, emotional struggles within himself, where he is torn between the two sides of the force.

There is still plenty of material to be written, it is a matter of which part of the story line to work on that matters.


myLot reputation of 90/100. sunslinger (305)  1 year ago

How about a show about Yoda's msater? I think it'll be cool.


myLot reputation of 94/100. ahgong (1856)  1 year ago

hmm... there dun seem to be much that can be written about yoda leh. Unless of course we are going to talk about how the sith was borned, and how yoda was there to see it being borned... and the struggles he had to go thru to prevent it but failed... then there would be one heck of a story to get at!

I love star wars movies and never could get enough bummer I can't see these two new shows on tv cause i don't have tv stations I only have a dvd player and tons of movies. I guess I hope to see them on dvd one day. I hope you who watch them on tv enjoy.
