CupO'Coffee Posted May 19, 2002 Share Posted May 19, 2002 i don't think he will. he once said that he will be too old once the prequel-trilogy is done. of course nobody can be sure about that but i'm pretty sure he won't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striderx2048 Posted May 19, 2002 Share Posted May 19, 2002 theres no story point to 7-9, the empire has fallen, the good guys win. Post empire and new republic stuff is in EU, he would just screw his EU fanchise. It anything, he would make the prequel prequel. aka around tales of the jedi era Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyth'emos Posted May 19, 2002 Share Posted May 19, 2002 I think that Lucas's perspective on EU is that it is not cannon and therefore he would have a problem with screwing it, but even so there isn't much of a story for three more movies. And he has said many times he will be to old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XERXES Posted May 20, 2002 Share Posted May 20, 2002 Are you guys not sastified with 6 movies?? I mean 6 is plenty of star wars to chew on. And if you want more READ...seriously. Also my bet would be that it is going to be very hard to make another trilogy, considering how almost every novel picked up after RoTJ, like The Truce at Bakura...and then Zahn's trilogy...and it went from there. It would be very difficult to come up with something that is not already happening or happened in the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vestril Posted May 20, 2002 Share Posted May 20, 2002 Originally posted by striderx2048 Just pretend your 10 yrs old again and watch it Exactly, most of the people that hate the new movies but loved the old ones saw the OT when they were kids, which gives it an aura of invincibility and allows them to ignore many of the faults. I think that this trilogy has been as good as the original one, and people who don't realize that tend to expect it to be what they enjoyed when they were children, or to be as groundbreaking as the original--neither of which is possible.

Lord_FinnSon Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 Give the man break! He created whole SW universe and its main characters. Even though he first thought of making 9-12 episodes, he must have realized long time ago that there's NOT much to tell about post-RotJ -era; he mentioned somewhere though that only familiar characters in episodes 7-9 would have been C-3PO and RD-2D. These six movies(of course when episode III is finished) tell the epic story of rise and fall of the Empire through the eyes of Skywalker family members and their friends/enemies. Now, seriously, how would YOU continue it? I personally haven't been excited enough to read EU novels, because they tend to suck the life out of whole imperials vs. rebels/New Republic issue which movies already visualize perfectly. Only lately writers went a little further(or backwards) with "Tales of the Jedi" -storyline and introduction of Yuuzhan Vong, but in general(and this is only my oppinion) they seem to rely too much on situations and characters described in the movies. Besides, after so many "fans" have griped about Lucas ruining his OWN story and some other bullsh** about "raping their childhood", why would they even deserve getting a new trilogy? Seriously, after Episode 3 people have to either A) realize there will be no more SW movies, try to get somekind of life and ENJOY those six episodes they already have OR B) read every EU novel/comic that will be made afterwards, play every new SW game and remember what it was like "back in those old days" when ANH premiered and you were like 8 years old and wish that Lucas(now 80) would still consider making new trilogy.

I'm sorry, I must have misunderstood. Did you mean to say that you don't like the EU books, and you have read them? Because you make it sound like you haven't read them, but are still criticizing about things that only someone who has read them would know.

striderx2048 Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 star wars will be done. just latch onto Indiana Jones, thats pretty open ended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wamprat013 Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 wat u guyz don't realize is that lucas already has the stories written on the last trilogy, it is just production that he dosn t want to do, and yes the most recognizeable characters in the last movie are c-3po and r2-d2, this is becuase the origonal manuscripts that lucas wrote were the story of the 2 droids from begining to end of this whole thing, and also in the first movie i beleave still has luke, han, leia, all the origonal characters from the origonal starwars in it, and thats why lucas dosn't want to make it, bvecuase you would have to create computer generated mark hamell, carrie fisher, and harrison ford, to look younger, or completely generate their facxes on oteherpeoples bodies. BUT, it can be done, becuase in the movie gladiator, the actor who played proximo (the fat guy who was a freed gladiator slave) died of a heart attack and they computer generated his face onto another actor. and for u all who think nothing will happen becuase the empire has alreday fallen, think again, remember that this game (jedi knight 2) all happens 8 years after the fall of the empire!

striderx2048 Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 that cause it would cheaping the saga if he was to add more at the end. Star wars would become like any other series, like the mummy, rehashing the story with a new enemy The story as someone has already said, is the rise and fall of the Empire and the part that the Skywalker family played in it.

Chaotic~Angel Posted May 21, 2002 Share Posted May 21, 2002 The only open end I could see happening would be 20 years after RotJ with little Anakin Solo and his pack beating up people in a style like the movie 'Spy Kids'. Is that what you want? IS it?! No no no you all want something better....maybe Star Wars: Jar Jar's adventures.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
