6 or 9?

I am sure that this has been covered before, but a friend of mine is disputing me about this.

How many movies are there going to be? 6 or 9? I told him 6. Help?

 

Originally there were supposed to be 9. Unfortunately, George Lucas will only be making 6. By the time he finishes Episode III he'll be too old to do another trilogy.

 

69!

 

"69!"

you beat me to it, princexizor!

 

better luck next time

 

Originally there were supposed to be 12, now it's just 6 :_(

Well. There are currently six movies:
A New Hope
Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi

Ewoks: Caravan of Courage
Ewoks: Battle for Endor

The Phantom Menace

There are currently two more movies in production:
Attack of the Clones
(Episode III)

So, after Episode III is released, there will be eight Star Wars movies.

 

The Ewok "movies" were made for TV and thus don't count

(Unless you're a European - they got the full-fledged cinema release there )

 

6. Originally the plans called for 9, but GL, aside from wanting to do other things than SW in his life, also realized that his story had ended with RotJ; he had nothing else he wanted to tell.

 

The Ewok movies ARE canon.

 

Not to mention that they are an excellent addition to the saga.



(Snickering)

 

Don't forget the droids and ewoks cartoons, and the Unforgettable Holiday Special(Though people try, .)

Lucas has had some involvement in all 3 of those stories. Then there was star tours which lucas wrote the story, ilm filmed and lucas even played a bit part in.

 

And the holiday special! Who could forget that classic dialogue in Chewie's family's house?

"Muwooooowaaaah!"
"Growwwwwwl!"
"muha ha ha uh!"
"Grarrrrrrrrrrrw!"
"Graw gr muh muk ma!"



After watching it, Im sure I knew what they were saying

 

I cant believe I have never seen the Holiday Special. I must immediatley.

 

Then recently we found out on the TPM DVD, that lucas is involved with the scripts of every star wars games(to make sure they mesh with his universe), and that he even plays the games in his spare time.

 

we did?

 

Sorry, I guess if people haven't gone through the whole second dvd I guess they wouldn't have found that information.

 

Of the cartoons, only "The Great Heep" can be considered a "movie" - so I suppose the movie count is back up to 9.

 

They actually released the cartoons in videos a couple years ago as long 3 hr movies.

Even then a cartoon is a minature film.

The definition of movie is moving/motion picture, is series of pictures shown in a continuous speed in that it seems to move. So any pictures that moves can be counted as a movie.

 

Can you tell me where on Disc two this juicy morsel is?

 

storyboards and misc section. that lucasarts clip about starfighter.

 

The Making Of Starfight part I think

 

I don't remember it either, but I bet it's in the Starfighte feature.
