So you don't think there should be a Live-action Star Wars TV-show?
Game3525 posted:No offense, but this is a terrible idea. Why would Lucas just four years removed from ROTS, go back and basically remake them. I for one hope GL stays with the "Dark times" era, he is already "remaking" the Clone Wars, I don't see why he would redo the PT.
Drewton posted:...I just don't want TV to be the only future of Star Wars as George Lucas says it is, or changing the films into TV episodes. Back to the original topic, whether I want anything you mentioned in your first post to happen or not, I can say with 99.9% certainty that most if not all of those things are not going to be what the LAS will be like.

I for one hope GL stays with the "Dark times" era, he is already "remaking" the Clone Wars, I don't see why he would redo the PT. He won't. He's already told us what the time period will be, and he's hinted at who some of the characters will be. I'm not sure if the original post was intended as a wish for what he or she wanted Lucas to do, or if it was actually a prediction. If it's just a wish or idea, I'd have to respectfully disagree with it, since Star Wars is known for its continuity, and even with the Clone Wars TV series, a way to fit it into the canon will be found and there won't be a "reboot" of anything. This applies to the movies as well. What's done is done. If the original post was really a prediction of what the LAS will be, well, then, there's simply NO chance of this happening, so essentially this entire thread is irrelevant. In fact, usually threads like this get locked pretty quickly.
nett40 posted:I think the new Star Wars live-action TV series 1st Season should be an edited re-released version of all the 3 movies of the Prequel-Trilogy. The 3 movies should be turned into approx. 20 episodes of 30 minutes each. George Lucas would have to add quite a few more scenes, more in-depth portrayals of the other Jedi and lots of long battle-scenes.
nett40 posted:George Lucas could then use the episode designation for his live-action TV-series instead, just emagine... STAR WARS EPISODE XVIII "Order 66" Obi Wan Kenobi has killed General Grievous on Utapau and the end of the Clone Wars are near. But the fate of the Galaxy hangs in the balance, as the evil plans of the Sith begin to unfold on Coruscant...
MvG-88 posted:I was under the impression that the first Original Trilogy Special Edition was released in 1997. 1999 was the year of release for The Phantom Menace. Was there a version I am not aware of?
Darth_Morder posted:Aside from the fact that big numbers are equal to an important loss of credibility from the public, the real problem behind it is that he/she intends to use Episode XVIII(8) as Order 66? That is the thing that makes the least sense in all of the whole number thing. Where's episode 7 in that train of thought? Also, the whole point of having "episode #" is to establish a chronological order.
