Uncle Du 22 Posted November 26, 2012 (edited) Didn't see anything updated in here, so figured I would start this thread so we have a place for all the rumors and hypothesis about the new movies. I think my biggest thing is this: if they don't follow the EU in SOME way, it would be like a huuuuge "EFF YOU" to all the fans that have read, and made the EU so crazy successful. Just hope that ol George retains enough power to keep Disney from screwin' with the entire universe. Edited August 26, 2013 by TheUnknown Added Tags Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bad furday 57 Posted November 26, 2012 Yes, getting everything to fit with the Eu will be difficult. But then again, George has ignored the Eu before- I should post the page from the first edition Star Wars encyclopedia, in which Boba Fett is not and never was a clone.

Bad furday 57 Posted November 27, 2012 Hmmm...it's not the first ed. Encyclopedia, so I'm going to have to keep searching my books until I find that pic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora 77 Posted November 27, 2012 I honestly find myself not looking forward to episode 7. It would just be too easy to mess up the story lines that have become "canon". There's also the threat of really horrible casting decisions (as in anyone who appeared in Twilight....). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted November 27, 2012 Yea, I really don't see myself getting all worked up over this. The books were just too awesome, and went perfectly with the rest of the universe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bad furday 57 Posted November 27, 2012 I'm interested to see what the new "look" is for these films. The original trilogy, and the prequel trilogy, had distinctive looks that it didn't matter what film you saw a glimpse of, you knew what trilogy it belonged in. I think this new trilogy will be the same. I also never imagined I'd be waiting in line for a Star Wars movie ever again. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora 77 Posted November 28, 2012 Yeah, there is that. I think when it comes down to it, I've gotta support the franchise, but I'm going to be real careful not to get my hopes and expectations up too high. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted November 28, 2012 Haha! I don't think any one here can kid themselves and say they won't support the new movies in some way. I know that I'll be standing in line at midnight, a mid-thirties guy, with his kid in tow, and all his geek ass friends and their kids too. That's how we roll. And we know this. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bad furday 57 Posted November 28, 2012 Also...the planned release is 2015....and the alleged Celebration VII is in 2014...presumably in Orlando, because it will be the third year of their agreement (ie: they said there was a three year contract with the Orange Convention Center for Celebrations, but they didn't say it was three consecutive years )... The anticipation at that convention will be amazing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted November 28, 2012 And hopefully I'll be able to make that one dammit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted November 30, 2012 I'm totally focused on getting my debts paid down/off in the next two years. If I can handle another two years of this traveling bullsith. I'm trying to keep my eyes on the prize and think about all the great sith I can do if I pay all this crap off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

James the Defender 7 Posted February 1, 2013 And now Lucasfilm has decided to indefinitely postpone the 3D releases of Episodes II & III to focus "100%" on Episode VII. I wanted to see those this year...especially RotS... Grr.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drake 53 Posted February 1, 2013 Well, if the rumours are (hopefully) true, they will be remaking the prequels once the next trilogy is done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUnknown 39 Posted February 5, 2013 I am really, really worried about them completely destroying the EU. Hopefully, they realize that characters like Thrawn, Mara Jade, Corran Horn, the Solo children, etc. and events are really popular and that destroying them would create a backlash.

James the Defender 7 Posted February 5, 2013 I agree. Let's say the new movie takes place before the NJO and kills of Han, just saying, just for instance. That would destroy EVERYTHING NJO and beyond. That's unthinkable. To think Traitor never happened... Wow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUnknown 39 Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) Lucas et al. have at least shown some willingness to accept EU-related material (e.g., Coruscant as the capital, Kashyyyk as the wookiee homeworld, Aaylah Secura). Hopefully, they realize this and try to find ways that don't screw everything up. Edited February 5, 2013 by TheUnknown EU, not NJO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James the Defender 7 Posted February 6, 2013 Maybe you're right. Hopefully in the future we won't be saying about Disney-buys-Lucas, "This deal is getting worse all the time." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
