Reserve PT characters and planets for spinoff movies.... (Clone Wars between II and III, Jedi Purge between III and IV) This can leave a door open for the actors like Sam Jackson and Ewan to stay associated, and maybe "right some wrongs" with additional spin off movies.... (a clone wars movie with Hayden and Ewan expanding on the relationship and making me care more would be ideal)

This is a great idea. People unhappy with the prequels would probably go for this.

All I really want is each film as it was originally seen and heard in theaters; no fixes, corrections, "improvements" or modifications necessary.

I'd be cool with that, but you know there'll be PT in the ST anyway, so. =P

Keep Circulating the Tapes.

The trilogy that chronologically followed the PT (I'm talking about OT, even though it came first of course) only referenced the PT by mentioning that vader used to be a jedi. There's no mention at all of qui gonn or mace or dooku or battle droids or even clones. And that's what, twenty years after? Why would something fifty years after talk about these things?

"Princess Leia: General Kenobi. Years ago you served my father in the Clone Wars."

"Luke: No, my father didn't fight in the Clone Wars. He was a navigator on a spice freighter.

Obi-Wan: That's what your uncle told you. He didn't hold with your father's ideals; he felt he should've stayed here and not gotten involved.

Luke: You fought in the Clone Wars?

Obi-Wan: Yes. I was once a Jedi knight, the same as your father."

I just hate stupid people.

GO JETS!!!!

along with "Before the Dark Times. Before the Empire"

"The Imperial Senate will no longer be of any concern to us. I have just received word that the Emperor has dissolved the council permanently. The last remnants of the Old Republic have been swept away forever."

also, the Death Star is a completion of the plans seen in the PT.

Preferred Saga:
1/2: Hal9000
3: L8wrtr
4/5: Adywan
6-9: Hal9000

Apparently Star Wars comics are going back to Marvel (unsurprising given Disney's ownership of both now). Feature comics for Jax the Rabbit and Don-Wan Kihotay please.

Ugh, I really hope that never happens. The writers over at Dark Horse have Star Wars DOWN. They've consistently been generating the best Star Wars content for years now.

Rehashing the same old and stupid Jedi vs. Sith stuff ad nauseum is generating the best Star Wars content? Lord, this franchise really has gone in the garbage masher.

Obviously you've not bothered to read any of it. Or you'd be aware of titles like:

Agent of the Empire which is set very shortly before ANH and is about a James Bondesque Imperial spy.

Dark Times which is set between the two trilogies and lives up to its title.

Tales which was a compilation of various short stories of all kinds. From comedy to tragedy it explored every facet of the Star Wars galaxy.

Or even Knights of the Old Republic which dealt with a Jedi apprentice who was framed for the murder of his classmates by his masters.

Heck even the stuff that does deal with the Jedi vs. Sith conflict is excellently done as can be seen in Legacy. So before you try to tear something down why don't you try having some basic knowledge about the subject first.

I just want to see a damn movie based on Sy Snootles and the Max Rebo Band.

A picture is worth a thousand words. Post 102 is worth more.

I’m late to the party, but I think this is the best song. Enjoy!

Ugh. I don't even peruse many forums, but I'm already getting sick of everybody saying Marvel will get the SW comic.

From Randy Stradly himself:

My advice is don't believe everything you see. Especially if it originates on a fan site.

Hasn't Disney already phased out Pixar comics published at Boom and begun reprinting them at Marvel? I don't think it's unrealistic to think that sooner or later, Marvel will start publishing Star Wars again.

Ah Spidey, Spidey, Peter Parker. You had it good once. Being written by a great writer J. Michael Straczynski. Then they wanted to do something to you greatly against what JMS wanted for you and you've been royally screwed ever since. Spidey you have my pity.

Hey maybe the Avengers will invite you for part 2??

Edit
So, um, I accidentally thought I was just posting in the General Star Wars Random Thoughts thread instead of this one... Haven't gotten a lot of sleep recently so anyways um.... Something on-topic.................
Star Wars episodes 7 - 9 should star me

Yeah, because being turned into a mystic spider mummy who eats people is such a great way to be written.

I wonder if his impending marriage had anything to do with his decision to sell to Disney and retire from directing?
