Morn 8 Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Sources for The Force.net <http://www.theforce.net/episode3/index.shtml> have told the website about a tantalizing rumor: there might be a proposal for a post-EPISODE III STAR WARS TV show on someone's desk. The Force.net hears speculation that the premise of the show follows the infamous and terrifying rise to power of Sith Lord Darth Vader between the purge of the Jedi Knights and the start of A NEW HOPE.

Morn 8 Posted January 25, 2004 Author Share Posted January 25, 2004 I would have said that about the stargate show but it turned out better than the movie.I think it would be best to start it post-ROTJ because that way the show has more freedom and you can have a way to explain Lukes aging.

Hector J. Guzman 1 Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Well, we'll just have to wait and see.I do agree, however, about a show after ROTJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 I wouldn't.Which reminds me, I had a dream last night that Episode III came out and everybody hated both the movie and score more than the first two prequels. Apparently it was Williams on auto-drive and Lucas at an extremely poor job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 That was harsh. The movie was pretty bad but the score was good. Well, the new theme was good anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hector J. Guzman 1 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 The new theme, yes. The music, it was good but not that great. As you said, Williams was on auto pilot there. Lucas should have asked Lawrence Kasdan or someone talented to write the screenplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue_Leader 2 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 I agree with Morn. Any TV project should be set POST-ROTJ. It would allow for more freedom in storylines plus it would not have the "stigma" of the Prequels hanging over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 I hope they will not go on with this. Star Wars should stick to the big screen.- Marc, who finds the Clone Wars cartoons to be too insignificant to be counted as Star Wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QMM 4 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Clone Wars was great though, even though they were only 3 minutes each they did stick very well to the SW universe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 The main problem I had with Clone Wars, was that it was only action. I watched all of the first ten episodes after each other, and looking at 30 minutes of cartoon battles just annoyed me. No character development, hardly any plot other than "good guys fight bad guys in spectacular battle". One could argue that these cartoons can not greatly affect the characters, as they are not supposed to influence Episode III, but it still bothered me when watching the series. And Obi-Wan acted very, very out of character. "Now where were we? Oh yes, you were about to surrender." What the -- ?- Marc, who will watch the final 10 episodes all the same.

Plus the 3-5 minute concept sucks. How about a 30 minute episode, instead of a 3-5 minute one. That way they would include all the little intricaties of the Star Wars saga, instead of nothing but action. I really wanted a great plot, especially since the Tartovsky had a hand in creating Samurai Jack, one of the best cartoons on the television. But sadly, Clone Wars pails in comparison to the likes of Samurai Jack. I'll just have to wait and see the last episodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 I thought they had some pretty sweet new ships in that. Kinda like KOTOR.Dan--who is more likely to love a cartoon/film/TV show because of its art design before he notices anything else about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Leader 2 Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Lets just hope they dont pick some "pretty boy" actor to star in the TV show like they do all these other shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
