George Lucas: You‘re going to be greatly disappointed in the next trilogy. Revenge of the Sith is the darkest of the Star Wars films because it represents the destruction of the Jedi and the Old Republic. In contrast, Episode 7, 8 and 9 are bright and happy films. No darkness at all in the new trilogy. I plan to introduce many characters similar to the Ewoks and Jar Jar Binks to further brighten the demeanor of the films. After all, the primary target group for Star Wars is children.

I want children to be able to greatly enjoy the final trilogy that will be made in my lifetime. Some children probably didn‘t enjoy Revenge of the Sith as much as the previous Star Wars films. Without doubt, the children are going to love Episode 7. We‘re going to have singing and a lot of hugging and sharing of love in Episode 7. Everybody is celebrating the rebirth of the New Jedi Order and the New Republic. I want to reflect this happiness on film by having scenes that show how elated everyone is in the films. You can expect to see several dancing and singing scenes at the beginning, middle and end of Episode 7.


Gee, that quote sounds like Teletubies Star Wars with special guest apperances of Barney.

Yup, I say its all FUD for the moment, but only time will tell.

So, what's sadder?:
Apr. 1 postings that "just can't wait", or dopey wishful fanboy-cliche' ones?

(Oh, and you forgot to stick Tim Burton on the "geek-rumor" director list. Yes, it makes no absolutely no sense, but like Peter Jackson did...)

Thats complete nonsense. I was under the impression that George said episodes 1-3 were going to be the last of the trilogy and that he was getting too old to continue making them. The last things you will see of star wars are the live action tv show and the clone wars cartoon.

They're not happening, period

While I wouldn't discount the possibility of a CG movie, live action just won't happen

This is a waste of a thread. That's total web crap, and you just made some SW fanboy's day by retreading that junk.

Sorry, but it ain't happening.

The only live action starwars we will be seeing is the series that will be coming out on hbo or cinemax. Which will only deal with side characters such as boba fett.

woah...w8 am i that sw fanboy? i've known about these hypothetical movie ideas for ages now, he didnt "make my day" and i know they arent gonna be made, but in theory if they were to be made im all for it.
stop post your crap ideas of other users that u dont know shit about.
ya i can swear too.

side rant: is it really such a big deal about these kinds of threads. its a valid topic that i dont see why it cant be addressed. seriously if you dont like it, or can't post any kind of civilized or intellectual post related to the topic dont friggin post at all. leave these topics for people that can think/dream outside of the box and leave ur narrow minded self away from this.
i give thanks for the two posters before me for contributing to the topic.
note: (this wasnt a rant at the quoted user directly, it was for everyone who posted a negative comment on this thread)

A-men... give me stop-motion, miniatures, and costumes over CGI anyday. Granted, CGI is pretier, but the other stuff is more "real" to me... I'd take a guy in an ewok or wookie costume over a CGI Jar-Jar any day. I'll also take the Classic Jabba over the "Special Edition" Jabba.

LoL, did you honestly think I would type all of that for an early April Fools joke?

I only wrote what, 5 sentences, the rest are cut and paste out of the article.

George did say he made storeyboards beyond Return of the Jedi a few years ago. Their probably still in his bathroom with daily adds. Will he produce them to the big screen? I doubt it for he is getting to old. Never know maybe someone else will at LucasFilms once he retires.

I agree. While I definitely see Lucas as money hungry, I don't think this would happen at the hands of George Lucas. Who knows, though, if he works a deal with someone else to work on these films, maybe even give the rights in his will! But, we won't see a live action Star Wars for a long time...

Ford will be 85 in 2027 and Hamill will be 76. You do the math.

It's like beyond obvious that that is a joke.

Having read some of the books years ago... the post-E6 Star Wars story isn't very friendly to a movie. There are actually books leading up to their present age (I think) and I'm sure some could be a movie, but I think there's too much information too spread out for them to get there.

After seeing E1 and E2 I have no real desire to any new sequels anyways, despite a nice E3 the old joy of Star Wars kind of got burned out of me by Lucas and his childrens' movie. Had the tone of E5 and E6 been projected into present day technology there could have been real LOTR potential in Star Wars. I think E1-3 are going to be pretty forgettable in 50 years.

Maybe Terminator will get it right, I've never even been a fan of those movies but the casting of Christian Bale is a good sign.
