i got this from TheForce.net Fox Picks up on ILM NDA Story Paul tells us that Fox 10 news at 9 just did a quick story about the ILM NDA's. Cr33dos3On also tells us that the Phoenix, Arizona newscasters mentioned that those involved with the Star Wars movies had to sign a non disclosure agreement in regard to epsisodes VII-IX....and they also showed a few clips from AotC with Padme. The rumors persist ... Australian Rumors for SW Sequels Dean sends in this quick bit of news from down under: Just wondering is there any truth in that George Lucas is thinking of going ahead with episodes 7,8,9 I heard it here on Australian TV breakfast show yesterday 23/8/04 if it is true. That'll be awesome for STAR WARS - I hope it is true. Gaz Just letting you know that on the national news on the radio today in Australia mentioned that George Lucas may be secretly planning to release two more star wars movies set after the original trilogy. And finally, here's the one that counts from a friend of the production: I will not go into details until I get more info, BUT here in Australia I just got a call from someone, who was told by an ILM worker that ILM has been signed up for Episodes 7, 8, 9!!!! That is all they could say. I won't mention any names (plus this could be a joke, but this person NEVER jokes about Star Wars).They also confirmed about signing those documents about keeping it hush-hush. This is exciting news and it seems Star Wars will be calling Australia home. Again, keep in mind this is still rumor at best .. Lucasfilm Denies SW Sequel Rumors YourMom01 points us to Digital Spy for some interesting tidbits about the rumors surrounding the sequel trilogy: Lucasfilm recently denied plans to film more films in the Star Wars franchise, and George Lucas himself has always denied such plans. Perhaps the agreements allegedly signed by the effects company see the beginning of a change of policy. EOnline has a great story on the subject today as well. Here's a clip - head there for the complete story! But the franchise lay dormant the rest of the decade--the closest Lucas came to doing a sequel was green-lighting a series of best-selling books by sci-fi author Timothy Zahn in the early '90s. Things were looking grim until 1997, when Lucas revived interest in the space opera with spiffed-up versions of the original trilogy--1977's Star Wars (now rechristened Star Wars: Episode IV--A New Hope), 1980's The Empire Strikes Back (Star Wars: Episode V--The Empire Strikes Back), and 1983's Return of the Jedi (Star Wars: Episode VI--Return of the Jedi). Following those successful rereleases, Lucas went to work on the prequels. But in a 1998 interview with Vanity Fair, the writer-director denied ever having any plans to make nine Star Wars movies. "When you see it in six parts, you'll understand," Lucas said at the time. "It really ends at part six." Star Wars: Episode I--The Phantom Menace came out in 1999 and Star Wars: Episode II--Attack of the Clones followed in 2002. While both films took a critical drubbing, they more than made up for it at the box office, earning a more than $1.5 billion combined worldwide. Lucas plans on issuing a four-disc DVD box set of the original trilogy on Sept. 21 followed by the last prequel (or sixth Star Wars movie, depending on how you count 'em), Star Wars: Episode III--Revenge of the Sith, is scheduled to open theatrically on May 19, 2005. And that will be it. do you believe the rumors or LucasFilm? _______________ -Evil Clown- "We interrupt this program to increase dramatic tension."

Ah yes, but vasper you're thinking of the expanded universe. If (and he won't......EVER) George Lucas did make movies set after the original trilogy you really think he'd have all the yuhuzahn(sp?) vong or all the students at the academy ? Hell No! I'm just going by the official stuff we have to go on, i.e. the movies (I havn't read the official books by lucas) Even in the EU jedi fall in love etc....

I think if it were to come down to it, he would. Star Wars has evolved ALOT since the original trilogy. It's not about how the Jedi were. It's how they have evolved in their teachings. The old Jedi Order had theri way. Then you have the Purge. Now, Luke has to literally start all over and rebuild a foundation of the Republic thats Thousands of years old, all by his self. Lucas should see that The Jedi have changed and stick with it. _______________ Brother to: Tamal, Kavar, J.D.,Jermia, Devlin, Ulic, Xiabara, Seij,Tarron Mib,>>>ROCK ON  .My Spacescapes art page.My Everything Else art page.

I think Luke new of the old ways. In YJK series he purposly didn't put one master to one student. He said "My students can learn just as much from each other, as they can from one Master." I think Yoda and Obi-Wan told him more than we know. One of Lukes Jedi Knights, Tionne, is a Jedi Historian. I'm sure she has uncovered many of the teaching methods of the old Jedi knights. Luke gives his Jedi something that the old Council didn't. TRUST. He let them make their own choices and learn from them. _______________ Brother to: Tamal, Kavar, J.D.,Jermia, Devlin, Ulic, Xiabara, Seij,Tarron Mib,>>>ROCK ON .My Spacescapes art page.My Everything Else art page.

Now now buzz, you're almost definately right about not using expanded universe stuff, but all the Jedi love stuff, nope.... When we hear all that stuff that jedi can't love, no emotion etc,thats the prequels correct? In the time when they're set the jedi are flourishing don't forget, thus they all adhere to a strict code of conduct (cept anakin and we all know how that one turned out )In the originals its when all the jedi have been extinguished (I'm not explaining this to you buzz, you're and intelligent guy, this is for everyone else reading ) thus Luke can only go by what he's been brought up to beleive, he's still human you know, even Jedi need to get 'their end away' sometimes So basically, jedi after the great jedi purge can love, simply because they have no knowledge that they're not supposed to. Luke was going for it with his own sister, if leia hadn't had been his sister I guarantee you'd see luke marry her instead of han _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

I hope nothing in the EU makes it into Ep VII+ (if they are ever made) because virtually all the EU stuff has a weak, cheesy storyline. On the point about Jedi marrying, having children and so forth, though, those were the rules in the old Jedi Order. Yoda didn't seem to spend much time teaching Luke about that stuff, as he seemed more concerned with giving him a crash-course in the Force so he could go kill Vader. Remember, Luke's entire training, if you follow the movie timeline, was only slightly longer than one chase scene going on elsewhere in the movie. Plus, Yoda probably knew that Luke still wanted to nail his sister at that point, so "Come train with me and never touch another woman again" was not going to be a great recruiting slogan with the fate of the galaxy in the balance. When Luke re-established the Jedi Order, it certainly was not going to resemble the old one. The fundamental philosophy he had learned from Yoda, but it was an ancient institution steeped in centuries-old traditions of which Luke knew absolutely nothing. Celibacy was apparently one of them. _______________ My signature is only one line. You're welcome. |

Quote: I found this very recently... [url=http://www.argslair.tk][/url] Go to the SW Scripts page, and turn off your speakers(annoying music). It may be a hoax or prove our worst fears. Timeline is 30years after ROTJ. Of course if these movies were actually released it would be in 2008-2018. Story focuses around Anikin Solo and Ben Skywalker mainly, but also follows Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker from time to time. To assume George Lucas will take a large amount of things from the Expanded Universe is deluded. The only thing he took from EU for the prequels is the name Coruscant. He practically took a dump on many other things in the EU. He also spent almost an entire movie saying how Jedi can't love, and can't marry, and you expect him to take the EU character of Mara Jade, actually have her married to Luke, and have them with a kid. Sorry not going to happen. _______________ When you are going through Hell, keep going. -Sir Winston Churchill.

I believe I remember hearing about that conversation. The thing is this was back whenever Return of the Jedi was coming out that Lucas had talked to Hamill about it.

Yeah a mini series or movie about when the Jedi and the Sith first started fighting each other.

Yeah it really sounds like things will move towards TV for Star Wars, and I can't help but think that will be better for Star Wars overall. Quote: AP: After "Episode III," will you ever revisit "Star Wars"? Lucas: Ultimately, I'm going to probably move it into television and let other people take it. I'm sort of preserving the feature film part for what has happened and never go there again, but I can go off into various offshoots and things. You know, I've got offshoot novels, I've got offshoot comics. So it's very easy to say, "Well, OK, that's that genre, and I'll find a really talented person to take it and create it." Just like the comic books and the novels are somebody else's way of doing it. I don't mind that. Some of it might turn out to be pretty good. If I get the right people involved, it could be interesting. Any movies made would run the risk of overlapping the bulk of the Expanded Universe novels and potentially nullifying events that have occurred during them that a lot of people like.(more so than the prequels have already done) And if you think that Lucas would make movies out of the novels published already, I think you guys are seriously delusional and putting too much faith in what you hope Lucas would do. With Television he can go to the time period between the trilogies, the time period before either one, or even events going on during them. It opens up a lot more possible things without the risk of ticking off a bunch of nerds, me being one of them. _______________ When you are going through Hell, keep going. -Sir Winston Churchill.

I don't hope they make anymore SW movies after EPIII, atleast not connecting them to a trilogy. Cause they would need to find new acteurs to play Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Leia etc. And that would suck IMO. |

I tend to think that 7,8, and 9 would revolve around the New Jedi Order series. George Lucas actually came up with the original basis for that story and had a lot more involvement in it's making than any of the other novel series that are out. Plus it makes for better cinema than more of the Empire and Sith, that would just be too many movies of the same war in my opinion. It would also make sense of what Furious is saying, considering that the New Jedi Order series takes place 25-30 years after the events of A New Hope. _______________ I do not ask for your poor, or your hungry, I do not want your tired and sick, It is your corrupt I claim, It is your evil that will be sought by me, With every breath, I shall hunt them down, Each day, I will spill their blood, till it rains down from the skies. Do not kill, do not rape, do not steal, These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace, These are not polite suggestions, these are cores of behavior, And those of you that ignore them will pay the dearest cost. There are varying degrees of evil, I am a due lesser form of filth, not to push the bounds and cross over into true corruption, into our domain, For if you do, one day you will look behind you and you will see me, And on that day, you will reap it, And I will send you to whatever god you wish.
