Sivy Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 what do you think the chances are that GL will make ep 7-9 he said he wont but will he change his mind? or is he just saying that so it will be more of a surprise? also what do you think they would be about if he did do them?

wassup Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 I really doubt he would direct/oversee them himself but might allow someone else to direct 7-9 and he would take more of a conservative role in overseeing the project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boinga1 Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 not GL...but probably somewhere along the line some one will do it and it will be a flop :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teutonicknight Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Why do SW fans insist of there being more Episodes? The Star Wars Saga is about the choosen one, Anakin. Anakin dies in Ep6: the storys over people. And um... no, I don't think GL is gonna make another Trilogy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wassup Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 Ya but he could always pass the rights/privileges to other people that he thinks are worthy of continueing the Star Wars saga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldritch Posted January 2, 2003 Share Posted January 2, 2003 I say : not a chance. The major bad guys are dead by Episode 6... any future Episodes wouldn't have anything to tie into the previous 6. Let's just be happy we have 6 movies and not make Star Wars as cheesy and tired as Star Trek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surfnshannon Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 Nah I don't think that there will be a 7-9. Look at how much critsism he got for the last 2 movies. People have high expectations of Star Wars. He could keep going on and on forever - but at some point there has to be an end. I think he should leave well enough alone - ie Death of Vader End of Star Wars. Look at what is happening to Star Trek... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple_Tentacle Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 remember what happened when star trek killed spock ? everyone stopped watching the show thats what happened without vader no-one will wanna watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 What kind of story will it be about?What are gonna be the characters? All the actors from the OT are getting old so they would have to make a movie that happens 40 years after Endor. And it might destroy the entire line of EU books. The EU authors will put on pressure so their books won't be against the movies. Besides, GL needs to do something else so people won't see him only as the maker of SW but of other things as well.

Matt-Liell Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 What George is trying to portray with star wars is basicly a movie based on faith. the redemtion of Anakin Skywalker. Episode 1 is based on the Christian religion btw. Anakin being conceived by the force, Jesus being conceived by the holy spirit being the savoir, Anakin being the chosen one. After his redemtion what is there left to tell but the EV which i don't like all that much anyway so i'll say no George will not makin 7-9.

ET Warrior Posted January 4, 2003 Share Posted January 4, 2003 And there are a LOT of religions and myths involving conception of a child bya deity. not just christianity. Look at hercules, his father was zeus, his mother was a mortal woman, Zeus impregnated said woman (whos name i dont recollect) and she didn't know about it for awhile.

Luuke_Skywalker Posted January 4, 2003 Share Posted January 4, 2003 i don't believe george will make anymore sw movies and to reply to an above post george lucas isn't only known as the maker of star wars have you forgotten about American Graffitti? and the Indiana Jones movies?

Sn1P3r JeD1 Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 I thought he wrote the scripts for episodes 1-9 when he was a kid or something... so... woudn't that mean he'd want them made?

Surfnshannon Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 who's to say that he didn't combine some of those scripts into one movie. He may have started out with scripts 1-9 but maybe it will all be contained into 6 episodes. Let's let this guy have a life. And I don't go for the idea of giving it away to another director. booo. i hate when that happens. Look at Jurassic Park. First movie good. Second movie different director....crappy ass movie.

Last i checked the lost World was directed by Spielberg. Jurassic Park III is another matter (you know spielberg might return to JPIV?) Well some people says that Lucas should not have directed any SW movie except ANH (that, for them, is the only one he directed right) Personally i think that Lucas has been very involved with all SW movies, seeing every detail of them, and i believe ESB and ROJ very almost codirected. if ESB is the favourite movie of almost everyone its not because Irvin Keshner, it's just because the story and work of GL. Although episodes 7-9 will be nice to see, for me, it will crack up the EU, and i wouldn't like it (but neither would i that GL had to stick to EU for them) I though that GL could have made this: SW Prologue: The Phantom Menace 10 years SW EPI : Attack of the Clones SW EPII: Revenge of the Sith? or whatever SW EPIII: The Jedi Purge? or whatever 10 years SW EPIV: A New Hope SW EPV: The Empire Strikes back SW EPVI: Return of the Jedi 10 years SW Epilogue: ??? ( i dont really know what could be the plot of this one...) I think there is too much time between EPI and EPII.... Anyways i like how it is going to be (6 episodes) I would like that when GL ends SW he mades the three willow realm books (Shadow Moon, Shadow Dawn and Shadow Star): Nice story with mages and dragons and epic battles (i think i havent' read them yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Vostok Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 7 8 and 9 will not be made. The story is over. Whereas all six will tie together nicely to be one sage, any additional movies will be just that... additional movies. They would ruin the whole tied-together feel. And if they did it would be: STAR WARS Episode VII The Quest for More Money (joke from Spaceballs becomes very relevant...) And no-one will accept a Star Wars movie not made by George Lucas.

Jedi_Monk Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 I think Episode III will be the last movie in the Star Wars saga... Vostok is right, no fan will accept an Episode VII where Lucas doesn't have any involvement. Star Wars, and this storyline in particular, are Lucas' works. However... I heard somewhere that Lucas was considering making a stand-alone movie set in the Star Wars universe after he's finished with SW3. I don't know if there's anything solid behind this, but I think it'd be an incredibly exciting thing to see! It somebody else was given license to set another stand-alone movie in the SW universe, then I'd love to see it. There's plenty of room in the universe for as many stories as can be thought up. But it wouldn't be an Episode VII. And it should have the Infinities logo featured prominently on all of its advertisements to make it clear that even though this thing's a motion picture, only Lucas' movies are canon.

Lord Fergie Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 The poll should more be "Should there be another" Then the answer would be no the story has already lost some of the depth of the TRI. After 3 you would just be extending it with 7 and on where now it is a filling in on a story. In cooridination I don't think all 7 Harry Potter movies will be made for this reason while these current 6 can be accepted as a story farther than that and your creativity dies there is nothing new. Real queation will all the HP books be made? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deft Aklin Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Well, just so you all know, my understanding is that after episode three is done, Lucas wants to go back and fix some more errors in the original three. (Maybe this time he'll fix Obi's lightsaber in the Vader duel, the glass rod drives me nuts!) Anyway, I can't remember where I heard that, I thought it was on http://www.starwars.com, but it is my understanding that he is going to do that before releasing the box set. There was another rumor regarding episode seven, being a one movie compilation of the final three chapters, but that was from a less reliable source.
