Easy movies 5 and 6 where not primarily screenwriten by lucas and esp no directed by him and they were the best, 1-3 were written and directed by lucas. You see the problem? He's good with the ideas but as for movies he just can't make it come out right.

Cool, we'll get a Disney Princess Leia!
|
In the spirit of another horrible Trilogy; Still a better sci-fi story than SW 1-3 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

lets be real , the only good ones were 5 and 6, star wars died a long time ago. at least we had lord of the rings.

The original trilogy told an entire story, making another two trilogies from it is just money spinning. I mean...like...it's not even a particularly good setting, in the original trilogy at least (I can't speak to the literature spin offs many of which I hear is quite good). We have very little idea of how the universe works, how the different races interact and things like that, because it was a secondary concern to the adventure tale being told. Once that tale is over I see no need to return to a very much unrefined universe, which the prequels did very little to add to. I just can't see it being any good. Everyone should watch these if only because they are brilliantly funny. Also they offer a nice look at storytelling and character development in films. Cant fucking stand that review(er). He may well make some very valid points, but his own presentation is fucking terrible and I couldn't stick it out long enough to find out. Which funnily enough appeared to be a criticism of his own..

All I can say is if they expect to get anywhere near profitable on that 4 billion dollar purchase they had better make some damn good movies.

This is all good imo, if the movie is good it's great for us and Star Wars. If the movie sucks people will say "Meh this isn't really Star Wars, just Disney shit" and the saga is safe ! At least it's my pov :-)

A simple way to fix your opinion of star wars 1-2-3
What you need to do is stop comparing Star wars 1-2-3 to 4-5-6 and go watch the christmas special.
Upon watching the christmas special start comparing 1-2-3 to the christmas special and you will respect 1-2-3 even more. Now i'd also say do that with 7 when it comes out! Sorted its already looking like it will be a great movie!

I would love to see a more mature star wars and not some pg13 crap.
|
That's great!
Either they make a good movie, which will be fun to watch, or they make a bad one, in which case nothing changes.

Episode 3 was pretty "mature", well, with everyone dying and stuff. Not that it was any better though.

Well the current TV trend at least is to make fantasy/sci-fi grittier/darker as seen by the successes that HBO has made. I hope at least that the new episodes are darker with the empire strikes back as a good example.

yet the oldschool SW series were extremely intelligent and had kind of an occult message behind it with really smart wording.

For me Empire Strikes back is both the darkest and the funniest in the serie (and by faaaar the best movie of course). HBO isn't really the good model for me here, at least if we're talking about GoT.
