3-1 odds it will suck just as bad or worse than the prequels.....sorry.

I love everybody. Lets all smoke some reefer and chill. Hug and kisses for everybody.

I just hope this is some stupid fan-invented gossip...
I saw the original theatrical release of the Old Trilogy on the big screen and I'm proud of it...
How did I accomplish that (considering my age) is my secret...

He has said that since after the first movie, in 1977!

"Also, I figured the merchandising along with the sequels would give me enough income over a period of time so that I could retire from professional filmmaking and go into making my own kind of movies, my own sort of abstract, weird, experimental stuff."
- George Lucas, May 1977 - Rolling Stone Interview. (link)

Han: Hey Lando! You kept your promise, right? Not a scratch?
Lando: Well, what’s left of her isn’t scratched. All the scratched parts got knocked off along the way.
Han (exasperated): Knocked off?!

I don't think he can. He doesn't have the talent (anymore). I'm still doubting THX 1138's quality to this day (thanks for that fuckin' CGI'd director's cut btw). It's basically a reconstruction of a bunch of other, professional works, yet I somewhat like it, certainly Robert Duval's acting boosts the film for me, guy's good in everything.

And the prequels have made me doubt him a whole fuckin' lot more.

Darn. And I just considered ROTS the worst movie of all time this afternoon

Ow... the horror! Will it never end?
Fez: I am so excited about Star Whores.
Hyde: Fezzy, man, it's Star Wars.

certainly hope for once that when George denies something (like he's denying this movie right now) that he's actually telling the truth. There had better not be any more Star Wars movies.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

Lets be rational first .
Maybe it will be set very long ago so that it has no story interconnecting with the 1-6. Maybe he won't write it or direct it.
Anyways.....

That has to be the worst newspaper in all of Australia. Maybe not as bad as England's "The Sun" but you get the idea....

I'm flawed (edit: floored) by the evidence. Some Aussie dude who is at a convention is hearing rumours of a new movie and suddenly that's newsworthy.

Hopefully, this is just a rumor.

lol, I love what everyone had to say in this thread. I'm surprised by all of the responses that were similar to my own.

Anyways, I doubt it's true. Either way, Star Wars is already being handled as a money-making franchise. I expect nothing more.

Do you guys believe everything you read? Sunday they are obviously releasing something regarding the one hour television show. Go to Starwars.com to see the still image.

So...What? Is this true? Confused, I am.

It's rumor only. Steve Sansweet debuncted the rumor already. It was started with that reporter article who was with FOX.

Well, I was relieved when Steve Sansweet debunked the rumor... However, there's supposed to be some "huge" announcement at Celebration IV today, and I'm terrified it'll be a movie confirmation.

there are still fanboys out there, so desperate for more star wars movies they make up rumours of them.

it is funny when a lot of these guys belong to the media, news, magazines and what have you, lol

i wish the sequel trilogy would still be made but with lucas only as executive producer, and someone like peter jackson directing a story based off of the Zahn stories.

Peter Jackson? Oh, Jeesus, no. That's just what the world needs - another bloated, overlong, self-indulgent, self-important series of movies from a man who seems to have purged the word "edit suite" from his vocabulary.

Is there an official source from starwars.com that's said their will be an announcement? a link? The only thing I've heard of is the sneak peak come Sunday...which appears to be a sneak peak at the new animated tv series.

I'm not sure... I just read the info at theforce.net, but they don't say where they've heard there will be an announcement. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. You're right - the only thing on starwars.com is what seems to be a picture of Yoda from the animated series.

<-- still hoping the movie thing doesn't come true lol
