George Lucas: 'Star Wars' won't go beyond Darth Vader

Thanks to CGI animation, the "Stars Wars" saga is coming back to theaters this summer -- but George Lucas said fans shouldn't get their hopes up about any future films that take the epic beyond the point of ...

Strange, considering Cartoon network produced a Lucas-approved Clone Wars animated series that ran up to the release of Revenge of the Sith...

[JMB]

Given Lucas's last three crapulent movies that brought us such atrocities as Jar Jar Binks and midiclorians (sp?), I can only assume that Lucas is going to produce another steaming pile of feces. I'll be skipping it.

[Jar Jar]

Meesa hope me gets beeg beeg role in new movie!

[Boy George]

Yawn ... who cares? I'm waiting for the Hobbit movies.

[wrecksracer]

I really don't like that style of animation. I still might check it out, though....

[daeviant]

I'm not going to see this. In 10 years Lucas is just going to "remaster" it an release it as Special Edition anyway. Mace Windu is going to shoot first.

hehehe i wanna see Triumph make fun of the star wars geeks again!!

[chrisk]

i'm really sick of youn anikin and his dry tone and obviousness. obi wan is way more interesting and he's not likely to get as much screen time.

hayden christianson sucked, but it wasn't all his fault.

Lucas made a big deal out of the fact that the first three movies were the middle trilogy of a set of trilogies and now we find out it's all a bunch of hooie and he never knew what do to after "Jedi".

Episodes 1 was awful, episode 2 was worse (couldn't even finish it) and I had lost any interest in 3 as a result of the horrible story and acting in the first 2 episodes.

If he would have stopped after "Empire" I would consider him a genius but the ones after that seem to be more of an opportunity to sell trinkets and action figures than to tell any rational story...

[Cheap-shot]

How about instead of Jar Jar Binks he introduces a
new Star Wars character he is already familiar with...Howard The Duck. After all, he was also from outer space.

[Duke]

I would like to see Lucas tell the stories that take place between the original trilogy. How did Luke become such a pwerful Jedi between the second and third movies? How did Han's rescue come together? What happened after the first Death Star was blown up? How did they end up on Hoth? Lots of story opportunites there.

[chrisk]

Howard the Duck was not from a long time ago...

[Triumph]

This sounds like a good movie...

For me to poop on!

As was quoted earlier all 3 were a big steaming pile of crap

To learn how Luke became powerful btw ESB & ROTJ, read the book "Shadows of the Empire."

To learn what happened soon after the first Death Star blew up, read "Splinter of the Minds Eye"

It's not Howard the Duck it's NICK RAY! LOL!

There are no bigger whiners on the net than "betrayed" Star Wars fans. Sheesh.

Don't like it? Fine. But it's not a personal attack against you or your memories.

I'm disapointed that they won't make animated movies that are after Return of the Jedi. That's what fans really want. They would love to have the original cast back doing voices. The Clone War movie looks good eventhough I'm tired of the Clone Wars! I mean we had a show on cartoon network called the Clone Wars isn't that enough! I want to know what happens with Luke and everyone after Return of the Jedi. More animated prequels just aren't needed or even that wanted.
