What you failed, rather hilariously, to realize, is that Luke didn't get his hand cut off and fried at the same time, which is what happened to Mace. Also, while Luke got his hand cut off like Mace, he fell several minutes afterwards, and did it on purpose. Mace didn't have a chance.

Common sense. Use it.


I believe it was Mas Amedda who said, "If there's no body, then he's not dead." Nothing like using a clever little built in loophole for possible future storylines. I myself am of the camp that Mace is not dead, for the simple fact that noone ever says they hunted down the body after he fell. It may be a mess on the pavement, but they'd have still looked for it, unless he was able to get away in their rush to start Order 66.

Anyway, just wanted to point out that the age old movie rule, as stated by Palpatine's advisor himself, trumps your use of "Common Sense" in the movies.

Most definately. The Stormtroopers along with Vader will be hell bent on finding and eliminating threats to the Empire, namely the surviving Jedi Knights. I'm confident we shall see at least several Jedi being seeked out, trapped and slayed.

I would think that Lucas would direct or write the pilot episode or at least come up with the basic plot outline for the pilot.


Lucas is writing and directing the entire first season.


I think the TV show will be absolutely awesome!

Although I am very excited about this idea, I am also worried. I've seen many other Star Wars spinoffs on the small screen... The Star Wars Christmas Special, The Ewok Movies, and I know there are alot of people who will scoff at me for this, but I wasn't a huge fan of the Droids cartoon either.

As for the survivors, my opinion is that at least one main character will be a Jedi. I can't see turning it into a bounty hunter, let's kill another Jedi this week t.v. show. No one's going to watch anything if they don't care about the characters (unless the show involves a bunch of gross out stunts or bad singers that is sick ).

I'm not sure of the likelyhood of this, but I do like the idea of bringing in Vader (and the Emperor) once in awhile. It'd make Obi-wan's statement in ANH seem more true. Not every episode of course, but enough to establish that he and the Emperor are behind the Jedi purge.

We will also probably get to see the ocassional Jedi such as Quinlan Vos, K'Krukh, Asharad Hett, and new Jedi.


Actually I doubt we'll see any of those characters since Dark Horse just announced Star Wars: Dark Times, a series set between ROTS and ANH. DH tends to re-use it's characters so I imagine we'll be seeing them in that. Although if Lucas wanted them, he'd get them (like he did Aayla Secura).

Well, my above post was written long before Dark Horse announced the new Dark Times comic series and things change over time.

There were what? 5 seasons planned or 100 shows.... whatever.

My idea of the breakdown ....

Season 1 - Post ROTS, cameos to get the show off to a good start rating wise. Real episode III look to it, as in vehicles and space craft etc.

Show goes on until Season 5 - Where there are hardly any Jedi left at all and the rat tag crew help the rebel alliance form, or at least see it happen around them. (The scenes with Mon Mothma and other senators shouldn't of been dropped in Ep. III sad ). Would be good to see some X-Wings and TIE fighters battle once again. Final show could be the capture of the death star plans.

As for characters, a Jedi in the show is a given. Other characters???? Kyle Katarn? Would have to be towards the end of the shows but makes sense cannon wise. Imperial Commando, leaves the empire to work as a merc, has a run in with a jedi which hints at his future. Yeah you get the drift.

Oh and I'm sure GL realises he's got a lot of cannon issues with these shows, and a lot of fans who will quiz everything that is broadcast. :P

I think Lucas said 100 hours of the show between ROTS and ANH. There is no way jedi won't be in it. Blasters are great and stuff byt people would get bored after a while with no jedi, and they are too often in the center of events to not be in it.

I thought the only scene from that they cut was him killing Shaak Ti.


Such a mistake ShaakTi was the bomb and should have had her moment to go out fighting.

Shaak Ti's still alive.

She's going to be in a new game next year in which she fights Vader.

No, I've heard that Hayden Christenson, Ewan Mcgregor, Ian Mcdiarmid, Frank Oz, Jimmy Smits, Wayne Pygram, Temuera Morrison, and Daniel Logan are all interested in being in it.

Well, when 'Ben' revives Luke in ANH and takes him to his dwelling it is clear that they are already familiar with each other. But their meetings have obviously not involved detailed discussions because Luke has no idea that Ben knew his father until the dwelling scene. Driving home both of these points, Ben tells Luke about his father being the best star pilot and the galaxy, which he apparently didn't know, and then adds: "I understand you've become quite a good pilot yourself."

So Ben's been keeping tabs on young Luke, in a Jedi-guardian post-ROTS agreement with Yoda kind of way. It would be nice in the TV series to see him working in the backgound protecting Luke and quietly, anonymously helping him along in difficult situations every now and then.
