Author	Topic: continue the story! it can be done!
obi-arin-kenobi Registered: Jun '05	Date Posted: 1/28 8:14am Subject: RE: continue the story! it can be done!
	I used to think it would never happen, but lately, I think it's possible. It would be interesting to see what would happen though, because it would surely not follow EU, and I think that would make a lot of people unhappy(not me, i'd probably be more happy). However, I don't think ANYONE will find out about it until it comes, if it comes.

	It's hard to say this without offending him, but I think George's talents for movie making have come to an end. After the disappointing PT and now the badly written Indiana Jones 4 movie, I think he should hang up his cameras and count his money. -----signature----- "I can't abide those Jawas... disgusting creatures"! - C3PO This sig line is [FABULOUSO!] www.outerrimsieges.com "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." -- Carl Sagan

Regardless of how disappointed you were with episodes 1-3, you can't really make such a statement, considering the amount of people that actually love them. Technically speaking, the films themselves are arguably even better than the OT.

Grew up with them as a child. However, the films themselves are very similar to 1-3. It's like comparing sets of paintings by the same artist.

	There were familiar names and places and characters between the two trilogies, but they couldn't look more different if they tried. Visual continuity took a back seat to effects, in my opinion. The OT universe looked lived in and real. Although the PT took place years before the OT, it shouldn't have looked fresh-from-the-factory new. That's one of many incongruities between the movies. -----signature----- "I can't abide those Jawas... disgusting creatures"! - C3PO This sig line is [FABULOUSO!] www.outerrimsieges.com "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." -- Carl Sagan

Although the PT took place years before the OT, it shouldn't have looked fresh-from-the-factory new. That's one of many incongruities between the movies. The "look" was always going to look that way. Sort of a mix between old greece(or lets just say romantic eras) and 50s america. That is actually the whole point to be made between the trilogies. When the times change, the whole look of the universe changes. What once was clean and innocent, is now rugged and massively produced. Remember when people used to farm for food and things were more self sufficient? Nowadays we fill things with poison and even the foods we eat are about greedy people making money. George is taking mythology and applying it to modern times. If it looked any different, it wouldn't be star wars. Now, not even thinking about the above, the FILM--the rhythms(music, dialogue, etc)--are consistent throughout the saga. That's what makes them "George Lucas pictures." Even though 5 and 6 weren't directed by lucas, they still follow the basis for what makes it a star wars film. That's why he'll call them musicals sometimes, because it's not about watching the actors and listening to the dialogues, but about watching the film. The actors are there to hit rhythms, hence, "faster, more intense." Next time you watch, say, episode 3, play the French dialogue track WITHOUT subtitles on. Then you may start to get the gist of things. You'll notice that body language is taken into account just as much as everything else on screen.

With the PT, I never really saw it as "new", but rather "well kept". The Naboo, for example, valued things that looked fresh and clean, hence why their starfighters and all that looked new. In the beginning of the Clone Wars, things looked new because they hadn't been used before. By the end of the war, we then see things that look more dirty and all that. -----signature----- Star Wars: Episode I - The Chosen One (my fan fic) http://boards.theforce.net/the_saga/b10476/30225011/p1/?3

	What story would GL tell after ROTJ? There is not much stuff he can go into. Now, the area between ROTS and ANH is what I am looking forward to. -----signature----- Skywalker and Kenobi: The team "Some men see things as they are and say why?

	The ending of ROTS saw the rise of the Empire, while the beginning of ANH shows the Empire in full swing. There is a lot of room to play in that time frame, but whether it would make for a good set of movies is hard to say. I guess that's where EU comes into play. -----signature----- "I can't abide those Jawas... disgusting creatures"! - C3PO This sig line is [FABULOUSO!] www.outerrimsieges.com "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." -- Carl Sagan

Oh, of course I don't want movies about that time period. But the tv show that is coming out in a few years will be fine! -----signature----- Skywalker and Kenobi: The team "Some men see things as they are and say why?

	When do the "dark times" take place? -----signature----- You hear that? That's the sound of inevitability. You hear that? That's the A train. You hear that? That's the sound of a thousand terrible things heading this way.
