nett40 posted:[quote=Game3525]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.
Game3525 posted:... There is more to Star Wars then Lightsabers, Jedi etc. And besides the LAS really needs to get away from that, it is different era now.
nett40 posted:Btw. did GL listen to the most hardcore fans when he decided to make the PT or when he decided to re-edit the Original Trilogy?
Drewton posted:nett40 posted:Btw. did GL listen to the most hardcore fans when he decided to make the PT or when he decided to re-edit the Original Trilogy? So, what's your point? GL's already decided what the series will be about and it's completely different from your idea.

brainwash posted:I thought Lucas said the show was going to be about a bunch of things, not necessarily about any one person or thing, though it's going to have a lot of underworld and Boba Fett, for example. Isn't everything else vague at this point?
nett40 posted:Dark_Lord_THX_1138 posted:I really don't want to see re-makes and extended television versions of the Prequels as you suggested. I've had enough of that time period and would much rather see George put his effort into filling the gaps between ROTS and ANH as planned, so your idea is pretty irrelevant as continuity wise it wouldn't work at all and the public wouldn't be too interested. I've realized a long time ago that you dislike my ideas, but that doesn't mean that your right. If you want to start a Television show based on the Star Wars universe then you need to have a beginning or something familiar gp people. The show has to be directed towards more people than simply the most hardcore fans, such as your self. Otherwise, I surely think that Lucas would drop this whole idea of a LAS and continue his work with CGI. I know the show has to be about the dark times. But you also need the HOW, WHERE and WHEN. Otherwise it all becomes nonsense...

Darth_Neznarf posted:"STAR WARS: TALES FROM THE GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY" Every week a story from a different time in the SW timeline could be told. This week the Sifo Dias thing, next week Luke & Biggs racing Skyhoppers, following week Lando infiltrating Jabba's palace preparing for the rescue of Han... ect.,ect.
Darth_Morder posted:No offense, but how old are you? I think this thread proves what I was talking about in my post on the "No Jedi on the LAS" thread. I wonder if everything you talked about is what you wish the LAS to be about or if you are speculating what it'll be about. Although we know very little about the stories that will be part of the LAS, we know what we won't get from it and basically, everything you say it'd be a good idea is everything that won't happen.
Darth_Morder posted: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. As I see it, the story-arc can easily take this. There are plenty of untold stories in "Revenge Of The Sith" alone. How does the Alliance begin? A better description of some of the other Jedis last battles, Aayla Secura, Plo Kloon and others. But also what becomes of Asokha and Rex? A few episodes with a younger Anakin and Obi Wan in the decade between Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, would also be enjoyable. What about an episode with Sifo Diyas' mission to Kamino, and how Darth Sidious had him killed! What's the point of that?...really.

Darth_Morder posted:nett40 posted: A re-release on DVD of the original trilogy in an un-edited version (digitalized and re-polished of course). With the original movie posters from 1977, 1980 and 1983, as covers. The re-release should include both the original movie-version, as well as the director's cut version. "STAR WARS - Episode IV - A New Hope" should simply be called STAR WARS as it was named in 1977. Episode V should simply be The Empire Strikes Back in a yellow Star Wars "box" (like it was originally) and Episode VI should also just be Return Of The Jedi, also in the yellow Star Wars "box" and with no episode designation. and what's the point of that? do you really want another edition of star wars?!

Darth_Morder posted:nett40 Posted: George Lucas could then use the episode designation for his live-action TV-series instead, just imagine... STAR WARS EPISODE XVIII "Order 66" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ...what?
Darth_Morder posted:nett40 Posted: I am sure that this would give him an opportunity to turn the Prequel-trilogy into that what it was intended to be from the start, a great SAGA about Anakin's fall to the Dark Side and the rise of the evil Empire... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Of course, and the reason he spent millions of dollars and time in making the prequels the way he didn't want them to be was because he was pulling a joke on us, the fans, right? I'm sorry man, but with all due respect all you're saying is complete nonsense.
nett40 posted:Isn't the show to be about the period between "Revenge Of The Sith" and "A New Hope"? If so then, my wish might come true!
nett40 posted:To give a nice slow and familiar start to a new TV-series in a very competitive TV-environment.
nett40 posted:Darth Vader is the most popular villain around, is he not? I know, GL have indicated that the old main characters, won't play any role in the new show. But, I still think it would be unwise not to let him or the Emperor be in it, from time to time.
nett40 posted:NO, I want the ORIGINAL versions on DVD, I don't think I'm the only one!
nett40 posted:The scrolling text at the beginning of a STAR WARS movie, is one of the most significant parts of the show, so it would be madness not to have the scolling text at the beginning of each TV-episode. Would it not?
nett40 posted:My little wish is that GL would use this opportunity to re-edit the PT and add some of the deleted scenes into the plot. Like the meeting between Bail Organa, Mon Mothma, Amidala and other Senators. That scene is more or less the formation of the Alliance to restore the Republic. But also new episodes that gives a better understanding of the new heroes of the LAS, during the end of the Old Republic. So you better understand their actions during the Dark Times... Garm Bel Iblis should be a major character in the LAS (one of my impossible wishes), why did he break with Mon Mothma and Bail Organa???
