ever since I hear that 7-9 were cancelled I've been mad at Lucus.
Can't cancel something that was never official.

kudos:3 | It was official, when 1-3 were "officially" announced so were 7-9.
George just got burned with the flame wars over 1-3 so he scrapped 7-9, even though he had the books already. |
|
| No, it was never announced.
George Lucas said he is ending it with 6 movies because he wanted to end it with Luke and Anakin's story. He never really did know what he wanted to do with the franchise.
Just because George Lucas talked about it 30 years ago does not make it official. That is not how it works.

kudos:1 | Well, according to the USA today article episode 7, 8, 9 and possibly beyond sound fairly official now so,………
quote:
Disney expects to more aggressively expand the Star Wars film schedule, Iger said in a statement. Following the release of Episode VII in 2015, "our long term plan is to release a new Star Wars feature film every two to three years," Iger said.
Star Wars Episodes VIII and IX, Iger said, would follow "probably on a cadence of every other year and then go from there. . . . The (first) film is in early stage development right now."

said by AVD:the BSG reboot was epic, if not true to the story.
Moore's BSG is one of the finest sci-fi series that has ever existed, and I'm not saying that lightly. |

They should do something based on "Legacy of the Force" Series. It is set 40 years after the destruction of the first Death Star so Luke, Han and Leia would be the right ages to bring the original actors back.

Considering what Lucas has done to the franchise, Disney can't do worse. |

You mean can't do worse than the prequels. But that is not saying much.
Don't expect anything as good as the original trilogy. The originals sets the bar too high. I expect the new movies to still be a disappointment because of that.

It's not the studio so much as it's the director. Avengers had a really good director and it turned out great.
Lucas directed eps 1, 2, 3, and 4. Ep 5 (Empire Strikes Back) was directed by Irvin Kershner. Ep 6 (Return of the Jedi) was directed by Richard Marquand. Marquand did a lot of TV work, but Jedi was only his second feature film. Kershner directed 17 movies, several TV shows, and a host of documentaries. He was a Saturn award winner for best director. It's no coincidence that Empire is the best of all six Star Wars movies.

Obviously its been lost to time, but back before 1-3 were even made he said he was going to do 7-9 later, but later announced that 1-3 was it. |

My only fear is that, while Disney did an awesome job with the first Pirates, the same can't be said of the other 3 (or 4? I lost count and interest pretty quick.)
I have a feeling they'll make an awesome movie in 2015, and then it'll quickly start sliding down to mediocre and forgettable at best. |
