Star Wars rumors... | Movie News
Is George Lucas planning a third trilogy of STAR WARS movies (like he originally intended decades ago, and then denied he ever said it)? That's what Marketsaw claims they've heard from a "trusted source".
If that news makes you flinch with flashbacks of dodgy CGI, Temuera Morrison armies and winning dialogue such as "Hold me like you did by the lake on Naboo," this new rumor goes even further and claims that Lucas would only produce these films, while longtime companions Steven Spielberg (!!!) and Francis Ford Coppola may call the shots behind the cameras.
And what's more, they'll be in 3D! Supposedly Lucasfilm is watching to see how AVATAR performs, and Lucas himself wants to wait until 3D screens hit a magic figure of 5000 before plunging back into his franchise and creating clever new characters like Darth Heinous, Lord Fearsome, and a wacky comic relief alien named Li'l Testy. One assumes.
But wait... those party poopertroopers over at AICN went straight to Lucasfilm for verification, and received an official denial from the PR droid on duty. Which, of course, is both expected and meaningless, since if there's any truth to the rumor, they're surely not going to announce anything until they're ready. And at a place like Comic Con.
So for now, perhaps we should encase this rumor in carbonite -- Lucas is currently jowl-deep in the STAR WARS live-action TV series, so even if another theatrical trilogy ever comes together, it's many years and at least one galaxy away.
Extra Tidbit: Good idea? Bad idea? Bullshit no matter how you slice it?

Also, the Sarlacc in Force...
Also, the Sarlacc in Force Unleashed was beatable, why couldn't Boba Fett have survived? Especially if the monster was killed in the destruction of Jabba's yacht...

then Star Wars will truly belong to the fans, who can make another trilogy the right way - as a community effort. not some egoistic power trip.

And the fans are capable of some incredible work. I think if you got a big group of talented amateur filmmakers together, or maybe even professionals working for the love of the franchise, you'd get something amazing.

Maybe they've finally convince George that he's a talented businessman and that's about it.

George Lucas is one of the most talented 'idea men' out there, but when it comes to directing....not so much.
I would be so into this.

I didnt like the Star Wars prequels very much, like most people. Though Revenge of the Sith, despitre the bad dialogue, had its moments.
Weirdly enough, I'd like to see a new trilogy, no matter who directs. But this time they should shoot back-to-back and release one film a year. Im just afraid someone involved might die before...

It would be interesting to see the further adventures of Luke, but they'd definitely need to bring Han along for the ride, and, were this to be true, I highly doubt Ford would return.
