Vero Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Was just watching CNN and in the near future there will be a show about the time between Epsode 3 and Episode 4 in the Star Wars Universe. Its going to be about Luke growing up. They better show Vader killing some Jedi or something because that sounds boring as hell. O yea, there will be a 4th Indiana Jones movie coming out in 2 years as well. K that was my yearly post, see you all next year
SWR Staff - Executive Evaders99 Posted March 16, 2006 SWR Staff - Executive Posted March 16, 2006 Yes, news of two shows have been out for a while. No details about it really, other than the first is a live action, between Ep3 and Ep4, and the other is a animated series.

And as a bonus, there might even be some mushrooms growing on the evaporators I would hope this would be about the effects and growth of the Empire on the galaxy, and not just about Luke (why single out a single individual when there's a whole galaxy to exploit?). This better NOT be animated, but to do a TV series without expensive costs for special effects and actors, it looks like cartoonville. Unless this is going to show on HBO or something, you probably aren't going to see too many people getting killed by Darth. Want to take a guess on the age of the target audience? Finally, after years of hard work I am the Supreme Sith Warlord! Muwhahahaha!! What?? What do you mean "there's only two of us"?

Unless this is going to show on HBO or something, you probably aren't going to see too many people getting killed by Darth. The first line would be the logical reason to make a TV series inbetween Eps 3 & 4, and has masses of potential material to work with. Have a look at the academy, the Empire, etc. But sadly i've got a gut instinct such that's a bit grown up for your last line, below: Want to take a guess on the age of the target audience? WHY CAN'T GEORGE LUCAS REALIZE HE OWES THE SEVENTIE'S GENERATION SOMETHING FOR CHANGING OUR LIVES!!! Rant over. http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif
PHSYCOBOB Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 The growth of the Empire and it's effect on the galaxy? Call me a temp. pessimist, but we're going to see actors who look little like the originals trying to act as well. Just think!! Han Solo freeing Chewie!Palpatine sitting in a chiar!Vader Force-Crushing at least one throat/hour!Luke going to Tashi Station to waste time with his friends and complain about the harvest! Ok, I'm done. =o) There is potential, yes. But after so much potential wasted on the prequels, and empire at war..my hopes are a bit dashed.
Mad78 Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Who knows. It might work out pretty well. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance

DarthTofu Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Looks more like a constipated pear to me *Shakes head ruefully* Already off-topic.... I'm not watching whatever that is- all attempts at fan films in the Star Wars galaxy failed miserably as did all TV shows, and that terible book "Wikket's Quest" (They actually spelled his name wrong on the cover!) for seven and eight year-olds... 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
DarthTex Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Which fan films have you seen that were miserable Tofu? I've only seen: Troops, IMPS, Broken Allegiance and Pink 5; they were all good. I hope you saved your "Wikket's Quest" books, they're probably worth a bunch by now Finally, after years of hard work I am the Supreme Sith Warlord! Muwhahahaha!! What?? What do you mean "there's only two of us"?
DarthTofu Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 Read it in third grade, actually... And you're right, it would be worth a lot... I'm not saying humorous films are bad, but I have seen one or two terrible attempts which I shall not post here for fear that someone will lynch them for doing such a horrible job...I'm not going to let you people deny of my right to do it 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
BadSamaritan Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 Personally, I would love to see an animated X-Wing series. I <3 starfighter novels. I once knew a great man. Nothing got to him, and he always smiled. May he forever rest in peace, knowing fully well that his freinds shall remember him.
Mitth_raw_nuruodo Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 ...I shall not post here for fear that someone will lynch them for doing such a horrible job...I'm not going to let you people deny of my right to do it(I increased the font size to make it easier to read...) "deny of my right", Tofu? What is this supposed to mean? Chaos, Panic, Disorder, Destruction.....My work here is done.

Aenivae_Ikeda Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 Sounds like they could have swapped every scene with Anakin talking for excerpts from the life of Luke and gotten the same emotional affect...

Guest Scathane Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 Its going to be about Luke growing up. Oh no! Luki :shock: They better show Vader killing some Jedi or something because that sounds boring as hell. I concur! And I wants lots of Tarkin as well! This better NOT be animated, but to do a TV series without expensive costs for special effects and actors... And, again, I concur! And pour it into a miniseries format!
Mitth_raw_nuruodo Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 And pour it into a miniseries format! The best idea in this thread so far... Chaos, Panic, Disorder, Destruction.....My work here is done. Grand AKmiralCommander-in-Chief of BEAK Forces(CINCBEAK) BEAK Imperium"To BEAK is Divine!"
Guest Scathane Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Well, it isn't exactly mine... I heard a rumor about it some time ago...
Mad78 Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 I guess a well organised Fan Film could work well. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance

AdmiralToguroAni Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 I loved the Clone Wars miniseries. Animation lets you do more cool stuff for less cost, which is great for a TV show. Needless to say, I loved the Clone Wars miniseries. I think a cartoon would be great. If any of you watch Anime, you can see that cartoons don't always have to be for children. Count Dooku is the strongest Star Wars character as depicted in the movies. All hail Christopher Lee.
AdmiralFishface Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 Make it animated. That way it won't look as though they were trying to get anyone to take them seriously.[/bitter] http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/RiesstiuIV/Krempel/trapaure.gif
