i was contemplating an edit to kind of follow these lines once, just didnt really know how to pull it off.

 

have you ever seen tank girl? because the film production went so badly wrong, some scenes and shots were replaced with comic drawn images. this accident really actually helped the film considering it was actually based on a comic. now what if we did the same thing with the star wars films? one could even incorpeate the clone wars cartoons, and maybe do clever filter things too? maybe hints of EU storylines could be presented in this way, and an alternative Danny Elfman style score to accompany the films?

 

i think some may believe i have committed heresy now.....

So,

by now I've only done a "comic book fan-edit".

Yes, it could be great to do something like a movie... but you suggest to mix the EU with the Lucas' movies? How can we tell a new story with the shot from the movie?

 

But your post has suggested to me an idea... can be interesting trying to do a movie from the comic book illustrations, adding a soundtrack and voices.

There is no radio drama for the thrawn trilogy, but there is for Tales of the Jedi... I don't know, I can try to do something with it. 

 

Another idea is to release a series of movies, something like "From the Holocron of Luke Skywalker" that remember "From the adventures of Luke Skywalker" from the early script of ANH, in which we can see the holo image of an old Luke (actor? 3d?) that tell the stories, and the same holocron can visualize the illustrations from the comic books... Yes, yes, it is a crazy idea!!!

 

Really, this second idea went to me after finishing the 2002 videogame "clone wars" that has a good story and good CG scenes. I've saved them all on my computer and I was wondering how to make a decent movie of them... and the same idea could be great with similar videogames, like the old "DF2:JK".
