Oh no:

Just rumors! Just rumors! (I hope)

Please, please, no more! No more!

Good God. Just leave the series in peace.

I imagine prequels of the prequels will occur afterwards, then sequels to the apparent sequel trilogy.

It's a vicious cycle.

For crying out loud, someone give the man a hint.

I imagine many have tried.

Quite, and look at how well that's going.

Just some very slight spoilers I found from watching the latest Webdoc on SW.com, nothing at all that can ruin anything, just avoiding angry posts

Padme' is definitely pregnant Mon Mothma is in ROTS, as well as Admiral Ackbar.

Here's my two cents worth....

Star Wars
Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi
Phantom Menace
Attack of the Clones

Interesting with the first mention in there.

Nothing really exciting at all about the second bit IMO.

I bought a used DVD copy of Episode II: Attack of the Clones for $5.00 yesterday night. I will watch it for the first time tonight.

Fair movie, don't expect a total classic IMO.

[Johnboy007]

Just throwing out more rumors.

Apparently a live action (can you really consider them live action anymore?) TV series is being planned for 2006.

[Qwerty]

Oh God.

Let it end.

[Johnboy007]

While I had heard of this before, there is/was a cartoon out there, highlighting the Clone Wars, which is soon coming to DVD.

[Qwerty]

I know exactly what you mean. I believe it's the same one I'm thinking about. I was reading about it a few nights ago at a boring day at work.

[Johnboy007]

Just a bit of thinking, and I'm probably wrong entirely

There are rumours of a live action tv show, and also rumours about an NDA about Episodes 7,8, and 9.

Perhaps that TV show will chronicle the events that would occur in Ep.'s 7,8, and 9.

So technically, Lucasfilms would not be lying by saying, "7 8 and 9 will never appear in theatres", since it would be on TV

Anyone else think this might be the case? Or am I just totally crazy?

[Qwerty]

Hmm, interesting idea John.

However, as their just rumors, who knows what exactly could be the case with them yet. As, we just do not know enough yet.

I watched it and I like it. It's not as good as the original three but it is still good. Now I just need to see the first one so that I'm ready for Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.

Quite, on the whole though, you're ready if you've seen the second. A bit odd if I may say you watching Episode II and then Episode I.

The reason I did that was because I found a used Widescreen DVD version of Episode II in good condition for $5.00.

[Qwerty]

Fair enough. Enjoy the first one.

[Righty007]

I just pre-ordered the Star Wars Trilogy at Amazon.com!

[Qwerty]

Cool Righty! You'll have to tell me about it when it comes.

[Righty007]

Okay. I'm very excited! This thread has sparked a greater interest in the Star Wars series.

[Qwerty]

Has anybody gotten into the books a whole lot? I've never and probably won't, but are they any good?

[Johnboy007]

I have novelisations of the original movie trilogy, they're pretty good.

There's a sequel trilogy by Timothy Zahn, called the Thrawn trilogy, which are pretty good.

[Qwerty]

Hmm, thanks, figured you might have some.

[Johnboy007]

Hmm, thanks, figured you might have some.

What would ever give you that idea? (says the man who owns a Darth Vader and Stormtrooper helmet)

That series, the Heir to the Empire series, is widely credited with the revitalization of the STAR WARS franchise.

Prior, to the first book's release in '90, Star Wars fandom was almost considered dead. With the success of ALIENS, TERMINATOR and the TREK juggernaut, everyone seemed to write off the STAR WARS saga. Lucas had stated that their would be more movies (ultimately a 9 film series) but none were forthcoming. Marvel Comics' STAR WARS series ended around '87 or '88 and only the die-hards were watching reruns of DROIDS and EWOKS.

If you've the time, read the Zahn trilogy. Those books are long and detailed(I consider Zahn to be the Tom Clancy of Star Wars novels) but you are sucked in to a universe that is beyond intriguing. Dark Horse Comics adapted all three novels a few years ago- you should be able to get those as bound graphic novels.
