A24 4,331 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 It doesn't sound like the type of dialogue Darabont or Fisher would write.There's one constant in the prequels and that's Lucas.

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 According to interviews with Lucas in Star Wars magazines I had in the early 90s, his next project was to be Red Tails, a film he'd wanted to make all his life. Instead, we got Jar Jar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,337 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 JJ Abrams on Episode 8The script for VIII is written. I’m sure rewrites are going to be endless, like they always are. But what Larry (Kasdan) and I did was set up certain key relationships, certain key questions, conflicts. And we knew where certain things were going. We had meetings with Rian and Ram Bergman, the producer of VIII. They were watching dailies when we were shooting our movie. We wanted them to be part of the process, to make the transition to their film as seamless as possible. I showed Rian an early cut of the movie, because I knew he was doing his rewrite and prepping. And as executive producer of VIII, I need that movie to be really good. Withholding serves no one and certainly not the fans. So we’ve been as transparent as possible. “Rian has asked for a couple of things here and there that he needs for his story. He is an incredibly accomplished filmmaker and an incredibly strong writer. So the story he told took what we were doing and went in the direction that he felt was best, but that is very much in line with what we were thinking as well. But you’re right—that will be his movie; he’s going to do it in the way he sees fit. He’s neither asking for nor does he need me to oversee the process.
