Ugh, can you imagine the horrible casting for a 3rd trilogy? I imagine Ben Affleck in a lightsaber battle against Shia Labeouf. I taste puke just thinking about it.

Maybe Shia Labeouf can get his fake fingers loped off in the opening scene of the first movie. (Too soon?)

If you want a Myspleen invite, just PM me and ask.

So funny!

In my heart of hearts, I would LOVE to have a third trilogy that was done well and I could thoroughly enjoy. However, I just know that walkingdork's predicion is probably pretty damn close to the truth.

I think they should make movies out of the Darth Bane series. Its dark, emotional and freakin' awsome! Those that love the Sith would definitly love if a movie was made based off these novels.

Darth Bane is an EU prequel character so converting his story to a ST would only serve to miff the EU Fanboys.

A ST would have to have some aspect of a baton pass from the OT (not necessarily as ham fisted or clumsy as the retroactive baton passing in the PT but there would have to be a connection).

I don't really find Bane interesting, he reads more like a wrestling character than a Star Wars villain (I can almost hear his ring centre rants about the benefits of two man tag teams and his boasts about giving his abusive father a serious hurting).

I disagree. This can be a whole different backstory to the Old Republic. And how can u not find Bane interesting? He's one of the darkest Star Wars characters out there. I know what ur thinking: "He's and EU character." Still, its Star Wars.

Dark doesn't mean interesting.
