star wars episode 7,8,9 rumor

[jrpstarwars]

I see now. I suspect we're having a disagreement of opinion in how we look at the Prequels. You see I've never viewed Star Wars trilogy as 4,5,6 (despite the Episode titles), I've always seen them as 1,2,3. The way I view the Prequels is as a sort of precursor to the main event (-3,-2,-1 if you will).

Its just the set-up, a way of showing us how things became the way they were in the Original Trilogy. I suppose the best of way of saying it is I view the titles quite literally (Prequel Trilogy, Original Trilogy).

You're viewing them, if I'm not mistaken as 1,2,3,4,5,6.

I have always wanted there to be a third trilogy because I want to see Luke Skywalker as an Obi-Wan/Yoda Type Jedi Master passing on the torch to a new generation of Jedi Knights and to see the Republic rebuilt.
There has been novels about that but I want to see that in films.

Mark Hamill has said that Lucas asked him to play an Obi-Wan type character in Episodes VII-IX and that it would be made around 2011.

There has been another rumor of there being Episodes 7-9 on TheForce.Net this week. I hope it's true.

I think the SW saga should end with Luke passing on the torch to a new order of Jedi and not just a celebration around the galaxy. And I think Luke's prophecy was training a new order of Jedi Knights to defend the galaxy and being them back to their former glory.

I still do hope there will be a sequel trilogy set either 50 or 100 after Return of the Jedi with Hamill as an 70 or 120-year old Luke and Luke's son Ben Skywalker and his grandson as the heroes of the sequels.


I think the Legacy of the Force book series or post-Legacy of the Force(the era set between LOTF and the Legacy comic book series would make a perfect sequel trilogy and it could deal with Jacen Solo as the next Sith Lord since he is becoming the next Darth in the upcoming SW novel Legacy of the Force:Sacrifice.

Could you link to that rumor please?
And everything you mentioned is what the films should be.

I hope that 7,8,9 are never made. Star wars is in short the story of Anakin Skywalkers rise, fall, and redemption. Its very Shakespearean and it should be left as it is. Lucas told the tale he wanted to, now end it. We have 6 movies, 4 of which are very good, to watch and enjoy. Episode 1 and 2 are still better then most movies imo as well.

 

[Maximus One]

i agree man the Legacy series would make a great trilogy i mean so far te three books weve had are better than most of the books from the New Jedi Order allthough i do think that a series of CGI movies based on the NJO would be really kool to see

 

[NewYorkSpider]

I don't think that it is neccessary to make them. The story was of Anakin and his rise to the dark side and his son becoming a jedi. If they were to make them though, I would watch them.

 

[Marvolo]

I am a Star Wars fanatic so I would love for there to be another trilogy.

Here is the link to the Episodes VII-IX rumor:

http://www.theforce.net/swtv/story/Star_Wars_Rumors_102623.asp

Does anybody else besides me think there should be another trilogy featruring Mark Hamill as an older,wiser Luke Skywalker leading and training a new generation of Jedi?

Somebody overheard Lucas talk about the upcoming TV series,HBO and Star Wars Episodes VII-IX with a new probable director at a party in LA.

 

[Speedball]

WTF???
On HBO
Too bad the e-mail was probably a fraud.
The Series was to take place between III and IV, not VI-VII.
And why wouldn't Fox have it on their station? It would be a very expensive show to make, and would get a ton of viewers there.

 

[Asteroid-Man]

I am VERY sory to say that I liked supershadows script of 7-9. Other then those scripts I hate supershadow

 

[Sam Fisher]

HBO? I hate Fox.

 

[Speedball]

HBO? I hate Fox.

You hate the company or the channel?
Don't worry, that thing is a about as fake as Paris Hilton's personality.

I hope so, I don't think I have HBO.

 

[Speedball]

I hope so, I don't think I have HBO.

I don't have it, and don't feel like paying for it. Hopefully that place I'm moving to will have it for free.

I have always wanted to see a Star Wars Episodes VII-IX because I want to see Mark Hamill back as an older,wiser Luke Skywalker training a new generation of Jedi Knights. I always heard that 7-9 were to deal with the rebuilding of the republic and obviously the Jedi Order. Mark Hamill once said in interviews that Lucas asked him to reprise the role of Luke as an Obi-Wan type character who passes on the excalibur to the next young hope at the end of Episode 9. I'm dissapointed and sad that Lucas isn't doing Episodes 7-9 because I always wanted to see the original cast Hamill,Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher as Luke,Han and Leia in the aftermath of the defeat of the Emperor and Darth Vader. I know there is novels set after Jedi but I prefer to see movies after Jedi.

All my life I heard that there were going to be nine movies(not six films) with the last three to deal with the rebuilding of the republic and it's main theme according to a 1983 Time magazine article was "the necessity for moral choices and the wisdom needed to distinguish right from wrong" and Luke would reappear in the sequels at the age of Obi-Wan in ANH(somewhere in his sixties) and so would his friends(Han and Leia).

I think Lucas should at least allow the novels including the Thrawn Trilogy,Shadows of the Empire,NJO & LOTF or even the upcoming potential Post-LOTF series including the final adventure of Luke,Han and Leia or even the Marvel Comic SW series to be made into CGI animated films.


BTW:Matthew Stover a SW novelist wants to write the final adventure of Luke,Han and Leia. Perhaps that could be the basis for Episodes VII-IX. Hopefully it will happen in the next book contract hopefully Del Rey will renew the licensce

I think they should do 7-9 animated cgi . That could work out well and they could continue on with expanded universe. I would like to see some of the actors return to do voicework though.

I think that would work out great.

 

[FaT_tONle]

Just recast... ain't the worst thing in the world... have you guys seen how much Fisher has ballooned since the slave girl suit??? Ofcourse you have... and it isn't very pretty... plus she sort of sounds like a man now I have to admit... even if she was one hundred percent comitted their is no way she could get even to Helen Mirren or Meryl Streep shape... well maybe... then again I can't really picture her as a good looking older woman... and Ford... I mean wtf can we give this guy a break and let him retire so he can go back home and **** his beautiful wife while he still has it? Obviously he could still pull off the voice along with Billy D and Hamill... but animated is just not the direction to take this thing... Star Wars should never stoop that low... I was suprised that Clone Wars was going to be a theatrical release... but if you are going to do Episodes 7-9... its live action or nothing.

 

[PimpDaddyDOC-OCK]

Maybe, Lucas could bring the Emperor back as a clone or maybe it was a clone that Vader threw down the shaft in Return Of The Jedi & the real Emperor has been in hiding all this time or maybe the Emperor had a whole army of Vader clones made the same way Jango Fett had all of those clones of him made in AOTC. It would be interesting to see how the story would pan out.

 

[Gilpesh]

I know this is late and probably nitpicking but Kevin is wrong and Speedball is right.

Star Wars' story isn't over, the plot is.

Well, Warner Bros. is distributing the The Clone Wars movie, not Fox. And airing the live action series on HBO guarantees that it could more grittier. I like.

 

[Doctor Baywatch]

well, since Star Wars is not Anakin's story they could make a sequel trilogy. But not written by George Lucas, please hire some competent writers.

 

[Super_Ludacris]

There making more Star Wars movies?

 

[DarknessOfDeath]

Garner for Mirax Booster

or Jaina Solo... *shrugs*

Speedball, help me out here.

I dunno about Corran Horn... oh gods...

I don't think there will be anymore star wars films... if so, I like to see fresh characters, and yeah make sure they get the female character(s) spot on. We need to see tough chicks who can kick ass and are strong... like Princess Leia...

I like to see Mara Jade ...oh geez...

okay, oh yeah and Mirax Booster.

Speedball. I didn't sleep at all last night...
