Re: OT - Star Wars Ep III
With all the books published and officially recognized as canon, he'd just about have to either use the plot of an existing book trilogy, skip several very eventful decades, or cover a drastically less important/more obscure plotline than anything in the first six movies in order to make a sequel trilogy. If he ever did have an outline for movies 7-9, either it's already been published in a trilogy of novels or it flatly contradicts a substantial amount of now-official canon.

Re: OT - Star Wars Ep III
A long time ago, I had read the Han Solo series, so recently I got the urge again and I thought I'd start reading some other Star Wars books. I did a search  There's like a million books. I was totally intimidated. I even found a website that recommended a certain order to read all the books, although they all aren't supposed to be exactly sequential.

That wouldn't stop him. Nothing says he can't have a later movie script that contradicts things in some of those books. I am sure the people that write and read those books take them much more seriously then Lucas does.

Yeah, sometimes it seems that Lucas doesn't even take the Original Trilogy as canon, given the way he keeps changing things in them. |

Re: OT - Star Wars Ep III
I'm going to see it on opening night. I am taking that day off work and I'm going to buy the ticket ahead of time. I don't care about long lineups or crowds, I've waited three years for this movie and I'm going to see it the first night it comes out! |

Re: OT - Star Wars Ep III
Today I bought my ticket for Revenge of the Sith. The showing will be at 12:01 am tomorrow night (technically it's May 19th). I'll make sure that I get to the theatre at least two hours early. I can't wait! |

Re: OT - Star Wars Ep III
Given the story line, and the pre-reviews, I hold no breath for this moving being anything other than sucky. I therefore - "will go and spend my $10.00 to see it just like all of the other geeks, dweebs, nerds, morons, fools, and fanatical sci-fi freaks." - Jimmy Kenel (?)
So help me God if this movie sucks, I will never go see another Star Wars movie in the theater again. (Duh)
