    NO! There shouldn't exist more Tar wars flicks, because:

    1, They would have to get the new actors. ( Ford and Hamil are just too old for their roles.)
    2, Story ended in episode 6. Ended means that story has come to an end.
    3, There can not be good Star wars movie without Darth Vader. ( Just look at episodes 1 and 2.)

    No thanks. I'm happy with the way Star Wars went. Let it rest for now. If they want to do a remake in like 30 years than sure, why not. But for now, Episodes 7-9 are just wishful fanboy thinking.

    If anything, if they wanted Star Wars to be ever lasting...They would have gone with a Bond-style Star Wars.

    A Bond Star Wars??? Recasting the three leads every ten years? I hope that's not what you meant... btw I'm all for 7-9... but only after Ford and Hamill either pass on or are no longer physically capable of playing their roles... and hopefully that will be many years from now whever that time comes. Or if the CGI is good enough just do motion cap and glue the faces of the orginal cast back on to whoever is starring in the film.

    Many people have said it throughout the net, and Kevin Roegele has summed it up the best in this thread. No Episodes VII-IX. Star Wars is the story of chosen one who brings balance to the force. Things can continue in the comics, novels, etc., but as far as the big screen, it does not need to happen.

    I doubt it will happen but if it does, I'll be first in line.

    Oh god no. I meant more like...well, okay so none of the bond flicks relate to each other and each film is a stand alone. With Star Wars, if they went "Bond Style" they could have had that one particular movie focus on a single Jedi, then the second film focus on another Jedi and so on and so forth. I'm not saying they should do this, nor that I want it. I'm just saying that if they wanted to make 20+ Star Wars films (thus, making Star Wars everlasting) they should have gone with this style.

    But then it wouldn't be Star Wars, as the point of Star Wars is that it's an episodic, continuing saga, a story. And even 'Bond style' as you mention, is changing to be more like Star Wars style; Quantum of Solace will continue the storyline straight from Casino Royale.

    LoL, well then aren't we glad they didn't go that style? All I'm saying is if they wanted to make it everlasting, the way I suggested seems like it could have worked.

    I doubt it. The only franchises that last for decades are ones that can change to suit public tastes of the time, like Bond movies. Even the Godzilla series has changed substantially throughout it's long history.

    They might as well do that then... focus on other characters in the universe... eventually turn some of these novels and comics and games into movie adaptations... its just weird though because I can't really see any stories that people would actual care about after Episode 6... I mean if you are going to do a movie about a dude's adventures in space... why stick him in the Star Wars universe? I mean light sabers are cool and all but seriously... it wouldn't have any relevance at all... even if it was a cool fictional character that may have a following in novels or games... the only thing that would work are movies pertaining to events in from what Lucas established... but Lucas would never allow someone else to come in and piggy back his work... From what Lucas established with Star Wars movies... if there is no tie in to any Skywalkers its garbage and means nothing... so you can't switch gears and expect to have solid movie adaptations about characters that don't fit in to the Star Wars mythos that Lucas established.

    Amen to that...

    It would be a disgrace to the Star Wars universe.

    I wouldn't mind a trilogy based on KOTOR, that could be awesome.

    Hell yes!
    Just come up with a new cast of characters.
    I would love to see Mission Vao in the series, though.

    Agreed, nothing can ever compare to the original Trilogy. The prequels were not that horrible, however having the Star Wars name attached to it makes it pale in comparison.

    I would also (secretly) like to see a continuation of the Star Wars universe, however it does need some revamping. Borrowing from KOTOR would be really cool, but I would also love to see the universe as it continues (Luke becoming increasingly dark and meeting Mara. Leia and Han having kids, etc.).

    However, if 7,8,9 are ever made then it loses the overall story premise...a story about the life (and times) of Anakin Skywalker.

    It would suck, because it wouldn't involve Vader, Luke, Han, Leia, or Chewie. Or Artoo. Or Threepio. Get my point?

    That would be interesting to see and how well that gets planned out if done right.

    I don't care who appears and who doesn't appear in future SW...there was plenty of the Original characters to follow up on their adventures in the OT.

    I like to see new adventures with some EU characters like Mirax Booster and Corran Horn.
