Well there is much left to be told about The Clone Wars. As for Logan I am sure he'll be cast in the show as Lucas had bascially told him as much.

I could really care less about the 3D Clone Wars cartoon. Is there a lot that wasn't covered in the cartoon? Yeah. But still... there are so many other things you could do. We're covered so much in the Clone Wars recently I'm sick of it... two movies, a cartoon, a bunch of comics and novels. I'd like Lucasfilm to switch their focus on another time period for a while, then maybe make a Clone Wars cartoon later. Don't get me wrong, I love the Clone Wars, but I really want a break from it.

What I would rather prefer is a 3D animated series in the same style as the movies in the Final Fantasy video games, centering on the OT characters. Harrison Ford would certainly balk at reprising Han Solo in a cartoon, but I'm sure at least Mark Hamil and Anthony Daniels would be all for it (As Tony did the Clone Wars and Droids 'toons, and Mark has nothing better to do... plus he also sometimes does cartoons)

Really, how cool would it be to have moving adaptation of the Thrawn trilogy? Or Shadows of the Empire? Or totally new stuff? I think that would kick the pants off both Clone Wars AND the live action show.

Sure, they've made hundreds of novels and comics chronicaling the adventure of Luke, Leia, Han and the gang, but the last time we really saw them in action was ROTJ. I kinda miss being able to see those guys and watch them do stuff and hear great music while they do that. Books are great, but I kinda want to see those guys in moving picture form again.

I'm sure lots of other people would like to see this too, as a classic Star Wars cartoon would practically be like printing money. I honestly don't know why Lucasfilm doesn't see this.

Here's hoping that Clone Wars season 2 is called "Galactic Civil War".

I wouldn't mind a show set between episodes 4 & 5. I think it could be fun, and one thing I wouldnt have to see or experience would be Mara Jade..which would be a nice change of events. I grow tired of her and everytime I pick up a book she is there.

He doesn't just "sometimes" do voicework. That's primarily his career now.

That's not necessarily true. Allegiance takes place in that period and she's a main character.

Thats my point. I dont want to see her! I dont want to see her in anything during episodes 4,5,6 or beyond. I am growing quite sick of her. And it annoys me that we cannot have books with the original 3 without her in them. So I am hoping with a GL centered show she wont be there.

^She's Luke's wife. Of course she's going to be around.

As for the Clone Wars I expect one season because it's the lamest war ever in the Star Wars saga and for the live action show, it will only last one season. Boba Fett or stormtrooper isn't going to save it. It's based on a time period that no regular viewer will be interested to see. And since Vader will not be on the show, it definitely will not last too long.

She doesnt need to be around in a classic story with the OT. That's my issue. She's around all the time. I want a break from her.

I think that the clone wars will be good, and the live action should be decent.

It's better than nothing but I would have rathered the 3D cartoon to be about new material as well.

Now that Episode III as past, I personally no longer care about anything pre-Vader.

How come we don't have any material that occurs between Star Wars Episode IV and Episode V? I mean, the Galactic Civil War must've had some big battles and important events besides Yavin, Hoth, and Endor.

I mean, we're going to see the rise of the Empire and more Clone Wars. Why not some more Galactic Civil War between Episode IV and V? Because honestly that's a good sized movie gap.

Come on. The Rebels had to have liberated some worlds during that time period.

There's actually a decent amount of material from that period -- video game content, the original Marvel comic series, Zahn's recent Allegiance and the current Dark Horse comic Rebellion.

^Thank goodness that time period isn't getting ignored. Because if I'm correct, the gap between Episode IV and V is the same as the gap between Episode II and III. I could be wrong. But I could've sworn that each gap was around 3 or 4 years.
