[quote]This past Wednesday, ComingSoon.net had the opportunity to attend Lucasfilm and Fox Home Entertainment's roll-out of the "Star Wars Trilogy" DVD set (Coming Sept. 21st.) One of the surprise guests at the event was Luke Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill. He ended up being one of the highlights of the presentation as he enthusiastically recalled humorous anecdotes about the making of the original films, working with Kevin Smith, seeing TROOPS for the first time, and more.

However, his comments towards the end about Episodes 7, 8, and 9 really got everyone's attention. Mark told those in attendance what Lucas told him the third trilogy would be about. Hamill also went into detail about Lucas' original plans for those films, when they would be made, and more. Plus, Lucasfilm's Jim Ward confirmed that a "Star Wars" TV series is on the way in the near future (though he didn't say when it would be set).

Now why would he just make that up, eh?

Star Wars Episode 7: The Search for More Money

[God Conquers]

Hey! That's Spaceballs 2: the Search for More Money!

[Winchester]

Actually, the Star Wars saga is about the choice between good and evil and the cyclic nature of Lucas's mythology.

[DemonSlayer]

They'll definitely happen.

Now why would George Lucas and the rest of the staff at Lucasfilm lie?

Btw, the live-action TV series will take place between Episodes 3 and 4, not 7, 8, and 9; this was said right out of Lucas' mouth at Celebration 3. Not to mention, Lucas has repeatedly denied that a 3rd trilogy will be made. He's spent 30 years of his life with Star Wars, he wants to move on to other things (he's said this more than once).

There is no doubt Lucas may have thought about what the 3rd trilogy would be about, if he made it. But this isn't an indication that it will actually come about. If you want to read the 3rd trilogy, then read the New Jedi Order book series.


[b]Note:[/b] If Hammill's statements held any water, this would be a widespread debate in Star Wars communities everywhere, especially on [url="http://www.theforce.net"]TFN.net[/url].

[quote name='argent_paladin' date='May 21 2005, 07:20 PM'] Lucas should be banned from screenwriting....FOREVER.

And from directing. [/quote]

itd be cool if he did make more of the series, but im afraid that they would be ruined by being overdone. u really can have too much of a good thing. just a thought:i kept thinking through Episode III that maybe Ani wasnt the chosen one, maybe Luke really was...i dunno, just a really random thought

[Christ's Knight]

Ditto, Krush...

[Carnanc]

a TV show might be a better for the rest of the story.

[Laudate_Dominum]

I've lately been thinking of cool plots that could be used for future Star Wars movies. Some take place before episode I, others after edisode VI.

It would be funny if they got some of the original actors to play the original characters.

I've always wondered, do wookies turn grey when they are old? hehe

that's what I'm talkin about. That would be so cool to see movies about all that stuff. I like some of the pre episode I stuff too. The old republic and all that. I wanna see a movie with tons of Jedi masters running around kicking butt.

[PadreSantiago]

I hear kevin smith is going to involved in the new star wars show as a writer/director, if any of you have seen his movies there's always at least one star wars rant in there. That dude actually got married at the skywalker ranch, now that's a nerd....

[Nathan]

You forgot to say that George W. Bush is evil and the Iraq war is a crime against humanity, Padre. You're slipping, pal!

[Lounge Daddy]

ya - i dont believe there will be a SW 789
there have been rumours for 20 years about that, though

there WILL be a TV series...
Kevin is to do a few episodes story arc --- he confirmed it at his website

the stories are supposed to take place between eps 3 and 4
but i can see them getting into post ep6 material after a few seasons.
that would be interesting...












or they could really screw it up via over-kill like what happened to StarTrek
in which case they should just stick to the novels

[The Joey-O]

Hmm....I heard a 7, 8 and 9 rumor from a guy who's an uber Star Wars geek. I know this is just hearsay, but I trust his opinions on this matter and this matter alone.

I'm an uber Star Wars geek too.

So far, there is absolutely no word from Lucasfilm that they will be doing Episodes 7, 8, and 9. They're currently focusing on the two new TV series (one CGI, the other live-action).
