did lucas destroy star wars?
Time
And it was because of Flash Gordon that I heard of Star Wars in the first place.

Creature Features used to show episodes of the Flash Gordon serials before their featured film of the night. It had a host named Bob Wilkins who would also show movie clips of upcoming movies. One of those clips was Star Wars.

Despite my problems with Jedi, the OT were tight yet epic films. You could actually tell the OT saga orally like the Bards of old or around a campfire.

You can't really do that with he PT.

Well, let's see... um... WHAT HAPPENS BETWEEN EPISODES III AND IV.


The hunt down of the last Jedi?

The early childhood years of young Luke, Fixer, and Biggs?

The rise of the Resistence? Well, maybe that. Rmember Lucas wants to write these himself. And Direct the first season.

Just slapping the name Star Wars on a product doesn't necesarrily make it good, nor desirable. If the TV series happens, I know I will watch it. But that doesn't mean I will automatically enjoy it either. I can go aboutthe rest of my life if the tv series never happened at all too. There comes a time whne you gotta ease back and hang up the gloves. The LFL license is just out of control these days and I suspect that the tv series is another outlet for yet more toys to ram down the throats of a population of easy marks.

And don't forget, yet more Clone Wars animated series, but in CG.

Someone has to goto Wonder Con at bring up the O-OT next week
Time
I purposely decided not to go to his appearence at CIII and when I went into the con later people were still handing out wristbands to see Lucas.

Yeah, Steve is a very nice guy, but his job is to create hype, and I don't expect anything earth shattering to occur at his presentation, except for maybe the announcement of plans for CIV.

Besides, we are checking out the Chinese New Year Parade, which starts around 5:30 so it would clash with Steve's presentation anyway. Although I may be there in the beginning of the pressentation as 501st escort for Steve.
