Soxbadger Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Ha this is in the catch all thread, my comment was: Obi-Wan: I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously there is the possibility of oversaturation but Disney's acquisition of Marvel has gone well so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fear something terrible has happened. I'm not bothered by this at all. Even if future movies are crap they won't ruin my enjoyment of the original trilogy and I actually really liked Episode III. Episode I has issues with Jar-Jar and the kid but that movie is fun otherwise. The only one in the series I don't really care for is Episode II. But the Star Wars expanded universe is awesome and if those can be brought to screen with good directors and creative teams I want to see them. And hell, Episodes VII-IX without Lucas could be awesome, give him some story input but leave the writing and directing to others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R A Salvatore wrote a couple of really good ones, Luke gets really dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joxer_Daly Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I'm looking forward to seeing Rust and Bone, from the same guy that directed the fabulous A Prophet. Looks good and seems to be fairly well received, although I'm enthused largely due to the director's previous offering. Trailer looks promising, though. P.S. If you haven't seen A Prophet and don't mind subtitles, I highly recommend having a look at that film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) Im pretty sure the future story arcs are mostly written. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Star_Wars_novels I just would prefer instead of doing episode 7, they did something from Old Republic that was entirely unrelated to Luke. I just dont care to watch Han's kid ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solo_family ) and would just prefer an entirely new Star Wars universe story arc. /shrugs 1-3 are fine because they are the origin story of Darth Vader. 7-9 will just be nonsense. Emperor is dead, Vader is dead. Why not do a story about Darth Plagueis, or a story about the origins of the Sith. Those would be way better and wouldnt trample on an already told story.

Soxbadger Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Im not a super star wars fanboy like some (ive never read the books), but its just going down a bad path to do 7,8 and 9. The entire Star Wars universe in 1-6 was built around the Emperor and Darth Vader. They are gone. Now sure, you can write a story, where out of no where another powerful force comes to fight the Jedi, but then again, you need to at minimum have the story arc of the Jedi temple being rebuilt etc, as currently there is only 1 trained Jedi (Luke). So what is the story for 7. It should be Luke rebuilding the Jedi and the Universe recovering from Sith control. Now you could put episode 7 hundreds of years in the future, but why call it episode 7 then? If you are saying its 7, that means its a continuation of the current story arc. And given that the 2 main antagonists are dead, its just silly. Otherwise you get the fun story arc that there was secretly a more powerful sith than the Emperor and Vader, who really was the the one that Luke needed to defeat, but he was just chilling during the first 6 episodes. As I said, itd make a lot more sense to do a non-related story line and not have it reference episode 1-6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I would love to see Episodes VII, VIII, and IX, but like someone mentioned, I really would like a different storyline. I mean, they COULD get Mark Hammel back in there, as an old Jedi, with the assumption that he has trained Han Solo's kid, and they could obviously include Harrison Ford in it as well, but it would be quite a time jump. Either way, I'm excited to see where they go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Good news that Lucas won't be touching it. His three movies were such trash. Even with a good helmsman and writers though, I am skeptical of how this will go. I'd rather they just leave it alone. Then again, I said that about Batman before Nolan took it over.

If he wants to say "this creature should look and act like this" I'm cool with that. If he wants to write some dialogue, get the hell out of the mouse house and have fun with your 4 billion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
