Star Wars reboot, anyone?

[PlasmaTwa2]

Take a look at this hypothetical timeline for a rebooted Star Wars.

Kind of interesting. Would you be interested in seeing it? If it was the real thing, I'd be intrigued, but I don't know if you can replace the magic of the original.

I definitely would like to see Bale as a Wookie. I wonder if he'll use the Batman voice?

Err...wtf? This is like speculation about speculation? :dunno:

I think Lucas fraked himself with the prequels. They were boring, confusing, and ultimately, who gives a shit about how Darth Vader came to be...we all want to see the NEXT 3 movies...

Was going through potential cast replacements and had to exit out. Sorry, but Bale as Chewie wouldn't work for me. Neither would the Charlie and Chocolate Factory kid as Luke. Daniel Day Lewis as Darth Vader? It doesn't matter who the actor is for Vader, just the voice and Lewis doesn't have that voice (even though I think Lewis is one of the greatest actors ever, he's just not going to cut it). If this were real, I would call sincere blasphemy on Lucas and hopefully Obama would call for his hands and testicles to be removed

No we don't. We were all fine with the original three. The prequels were unnecessary and any sequels would just be forced.

Then again, a reboot would be forced too.

Lucas likes money. All you nerds handed over your money QUITE willingly. Lucas got exactly what he was looking for.

Kurisawa In Space movies should have ended when Vader did.

Dear God, please don't let this happen

I thought the prequels had some pretty bad ass villains like Darth Maul and such. That's about it.

Anyways I thought post-Return of the Jedi events were already covered by Robot Chicken.

No, because honestly there is nothing wrong with any of the current 6 movies.

 

[knowone]

Not interested in a reboot. Would like to see him make the final trilogy he planed.

 

[Gordar]

All I want is more Twi'leks... I don't really care about the rest of Star Wars... :tongue:

^This. He originally made episodes 4-6 first because there was more action in them (I heard) because it would sell more. But he should have not gone with the cast he did. I would have gone with a bunch of no-names, even though Natalie Portman was a dream as Padme

There is one Star Wars - Episode 4, 5 and 6.
1( years ago, Lucas already renewed the franchise but adding a few details to the original movies. Now he wants to reboot it, claming that -once more- new technologies offer him new possibilities. Bullshit !

By the way, with all those new technologies, why wouldn't we reboot Chaplin's Dictator ? Why not the 3-D Dictator ?

Lucas should reboot his brain, get some new ideas instead of talking about nothing else than movies he made 30 years ago !

 

[Vlad The Impaler]

There was never any plans for "the next 3". Lucas wrote a back story to establish where everyone came from. All the books in the Star Wars Universe are Canon, completely authorized by Lucas.

Is it me or is every movie getting remade? I don't know, I'm a huge star wars fan but I think it's always better marketing to make a new film instead of a "gold" version of another one. If he wants to stick to star wars there is still plenty of the storyline to touch, there's a lot more than the skywalker saga which I think has been summed up pretty well.

funny read "dontrapeourchildhoodagain.com" :rofl:

 

[LukeEl]

If Mel Gibson should go on a tirade and threaten someone, it should be fucking George Lucas for even entertaining the thought of redoing the Holy Trinity.

 

[ArabJames]

i think its unnecessary....but id still end up watching them

 

[StanScratch]

He fucked it up when he "re-introduced" the movies with "enhanced effects" about 15 years ago.
He fucked it up when he gave us the last three movies.
Why not? Why not fuck it up even more? Make Luke a fucking vampire, Han a werewolf and create a fucking love triangle. And instead of casting the rolls, we'll let the people vote for them on American Idol. Glenn Beck can play Vadar, Nike Cage will be Old Ben, and this time, the bots will be shinier and make more beeping noises.
I mean, hell, Lucas has been fucking up his own work already, why not go full force? Then after that, we can make a reboot of American Graffiti, except this time, it will take place in the year 2000, and this time feature modern country music and hip hop.

It was bad enough the first time round!

 

[BlueBalls]

Quit giving George Lucas even more of an excuse to dull our collective senses with his mindless fucktardedry!

"Oh look how much CGI he can fit into a frame, he's a genius!"

:crash:

It was bad enough the first time round!

This.
