    I don't understand why people are assuming/wanting to see Fett/Solo/Yoda movies. Those will all be terrible. I don't think I even want the spinoffs to be separate in plot from one another. What they should do is pick a great story in the universe (preferably something that's been hinted at already), and tell that story through the three spin-off films. That way, we get two separate trilogies. I think an old republic setting would do well here. Stay away from origin stories or a movie focusing on one established character in my opinion.

    I see a lot of people wanting this, but I don't get the appeal. Soldiers and scoundrels in the movies so far have been down right boring. The clones in the clone wars series were interesting, but that's about it. I want some Jedi and Sith in these movies.

    EDIT: My bad, I thought this forum merged double posts together.

    The origin movies are the safest bet for the time being. The spin-offs are a risk. They can't go all out yet. They will get riskier as time goes on (I hope) but they have to be something pretty close to the Saga to prove that it is SW.

    Yoda...
    Darth Vader/Sidious (in between Episode III-IV)
    Maybe even a Han and Chewbacca spin off? Back when they were younger?

    Okay, you're being repetitive now. I know you're new around here, but I think it’s safe to say that we all heard you the first time. If you have nothing else to contribute, then why not take a backseat for a bit until you can think of something else to say.

    Would everyone be put down if the spinoffs were CGI, like the SWTOR trailers were? They were pretty epic, and what I feel star wars SHOULD be, but they probably wont achieve that grittyness if they stick with live action.

    Ehhh, as much as I would love to see the Old Republic era on screen I really didn't care for the trailers for The Old Republic. They were so over the top, generic, and had an extremely bland art direction. I can't speak for the game itself, but the trailers definitely are not what I want to see in a film, be it live action or animated.

    Not liking the Darth Maul parts of your stories. Which is basically the whole point of both.

    Not saying it's the end all be all, either. It is just a quick little rundown I did in 20 mins. Maul would certainly need to be seen as menacing and more fleshed out. He's a savage. The point would be to build him up and make him look like a credible foe, but I never got to delve into that lol

    I'd like to see the original origin story. The Sith come to this galaxy and start the original of the original Sith and Jedi. Complete with lightsabers with cables going to power packs on belts. Let's start from the very beginning!

    Also, I'd love to see the Lost Tribe of the Sith made into it's own series. I love some of those stories! Yes, they could get some improvements, but it's got some good bones to it.

    I'd be interested in a spin off film about Lando. I'd like to hear about his back story with Han, see smugglers run, have a glimpse into the galaxy's underworld. The film could end just before Han and Leia arrive in Cloud City for the events of ESB. A nice parting shot would be where Han is asking permission to land and Vader just looks at Lando and there's no sound other than Vader's breathing. Probably no going to happen though.

    I think Lando was clean (sort of) by the time of ESB other than the Empire thing. I'd rather just see a backstory with Han and smuggler's run and the galaxy underworld like you said and that's all.

    1. "Lord of the Rings in Space" Old Republic film showcasing ancient clashes between Jedi and Sith forces.

    2. "Goodfellas in Space" Gangster flick centered on the Spice Cartels, smugglers, and bounty hunters

    3. "Saving Private Ryan in Space" Think the movie equivalent of Republic Commando

    And finally, my wildcard (this will never happen):

    Les Miserables set in the GFFA. I actually wrote an outline for this in high school. It works really damn well.

    Origin of the Jedi/ Sith

    Yoda (NOT an origin story)

    Anakin or Obi-Wan as young Padawans

    Vader in between RotS and ANH

    on this last week's podcast they were discussing this and if spin-offs might ruin the character's mystery. i think this a great point. a yoda spin off could be cool but do we need to know his back story? wouldn't that ruin the mystique of his character? i think it would. the same with other MAJOR characters. han solo would be cool but it would do the same thing. take away the mystery.

    boba fett may be the best candidate if they made him a real bad ass. it would enhance his character a lot i think. this is why i've been arguing for a kenobi spin off as well. i think it could be interesting and it wouldn't take away from is character in the process, only add to it.
