This thread seems as good as any for me to throw this out there:
I would have LOVED to see a Star Wars trilogy done Peter Jackson style (either the prequels or the upcoming sequels). That would excite me a lot more than the other director names that have been attached to the films. It's probably the only thing that would have a chance at getting me to reopen myself to the possibility of putting new Star Wars material on a comparable level of honor with my favorite films.
I'm sure this is probably a controversial suggestion. I admit a Peter Jackson Star Wars trilogy would be different from the originals. But I am quite saddened that I'll never get to see what it would be like.
