It sounds like Caprica to me.

Dallas in space with terrorists and robots.

I miss Caprica :-(

A spin off with an amnesiac one armed Mace Windu who is now a mercenary would be pretty good, especially since there would actually be a story there. But then they would likely do something stupid like have him change his name to Calrissian and have a child.

I actually wouldn't mind if they made a spinoff with a clone of Mace Windu.  Palpatine recovered his body after his fall and performed experiments with his DNA, yielding an insane clone, a sort of Jorus C'baoth.  I think Samuel L. Jackson could play it well.

This is one of those rare moments where ender's failed "I Don't Care" might actually work.

Ah Spidey, Spidey, Peter Parker. You had it good once. Being written by a great writer J. Michael Straczynski.
Yeah, because being turned into a mystic spider mummy who eats people is such a great way to be written.

I was playing off of the winky smile!!!! SilverWook's winky smile!!! *sobs*

Seriously though reading JMS' Spider-man comics has been on my "to do" list for quite a while now. I primarily know of the "One More Day" debacle and how he didn't even want that.

A Star Wars anthology series would be cool but I doubt they'd have the budget to pull it off. Edit Well at least if it's going to be some huge CGI fest every episode trying to be Avatar in every episode. Kind of budget sucking visuals every episode. /Edit Not to mention now and days people expect some kind of continuing story. The chosen premise in the article doesn't really lend itself to episodic storytelling either...

Star Wars Episode VII: On Stranger Tides anyone?

I wonder, is the hype of new SW movies the same as when TPM was being made in the late 90s? If so, we may be in for more disappointments. (I wonder if I have said this before...)

I don't think the hype machine has even been warmed up yet. Although avoiding the overkill that surrounded TPM might be a good idea.

Michael Arndt is one of the reasons I have faith in this first installment of the new trilogy.  He wrote Little Miss Sunshine and Toy Story 3, both of which were very enjoyable movies.  These two credits alone prove that he understands character development, something which the Prequels had none of.  Also, he is of the generation that cherishes the OT and recognizes the shortcomings of the prequels (regardless of whether or not he personally enjoyed them).  This combination makes him a good choice, IMO.

Since ROTJ wrapped up the series so nicely, he will have a lot of "setting up" to do, which I expect will lead to some of the grandeur of the PT in terms of understanding how the galaxy has changed since then.  That being said, if he can keep the story focused and character driven, then we're already looking at a film that should be better than the PT and almost on par with the OT.

 The ST is already better than the PT.

Any news about this.

One day we will have properly restored versions of the Original Unaltered Trilogy (OUT); or 1977, 1980, 1983 Theatrical released versions (Like 4K77,4K80 and 4K83); including Prequels. So that future generations can enjoy these historic films that changed cinema forever.

Eh, I dunno. The franchise has already been trashed irreparably; I doubt Snyder could do any more damage than George has already...

He could replace the stormtroopers with slowly swaying boobygirls in go-go outfits and cha cha heels.

Already a hit.
