Another New Star Wars Animated Series Announced: Post ROTJ

[soundwave 0]

Steve Sansweet announded today that Lucasfilm will be making another animated series that will take place after ROTJ in the same style as the current Clone Wars cartoon, which is quite good. I'm excited about this mainly: Luke, Han, Chewie, Leia...animated format! It will probably destroy most of the EU, but I don't really care cause the only EU I consider gospel is the Thrawn series. Wouldn't it be cool if Thrawn appeared in the series.

So this makes 5 TV series from Lucasfilm: this, the Clone Wars, the sitcom animated show, the Galactic Adventurers show for pre-schoolers and the live-action show. It would have been nice, though, to do a live-action after ROTJ since they could probably live get Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher to come back, but never in a million years would they get Harrison Ford.

Oh good. That's exactly what we need - another upcoming Star Wars TV show.

And Johnny will score the pilot!

Wait... Wrong SW series topic.

I don't see anything to indicate that this isn't the Seth Green show.

You see, I don't get this. Lucas seems content with sqeezing every last cent from the Star Wars franchise, yet he doesn't release the complete prequel scores.

With this animated series, and the blu-rays on their way, hopefully they will be released as a tie-in

i would imagine any profit from complete prequel scores would be small change compared to these other projects

They've got someone who does a rather funny droll Harrison Ford impersonation on Robot Chicken so no need to worry about his voice.

Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher and Billy Dee Williams have all lent their voices so that shouldn't be a problem.

If it's at least on the same level as the current Clone Wars series, it could be a lot of fun.

The possibility of Mark Hamill back as Luke Skywalker makes me smile.

Hopefully it's bookended by an old Luke Skywalker who recounts his adventures of old. He must have an eyepatch, obviously.
