They were. I meant this was before Episode I and so on had even been thought of.

I get ya. Great ad by the way. One of the greatest trailers that I've ever seen in the history of great trailers!

What a history

@nnnnnnnp Ancillary stuff really shouldnt impact the core of the francise, the heart and soul of it, the films. There are 8 films, 4 animated television series, and that is what matters - that's all that should be taken into account when considering new films. They can make a million novels, and if they are good and sell great, that's wonderful - more star wars - but making them canon is dumb. Just make more movies - sit back and let another direct 'em, and go "approved", "not approved" on stuff

@nnnnnnnp I dont have any problem with star wars being a money machine - i'm happy for him to have created this empire from nothing, that's amazing. but i want more films... and if he says "nah, we'd have to write movies that fit in with the comics and novels" then he can just go fuck himself - that's got nothing to do with star wars. there are 6 movies, 2 ewok movies, and some animated series - that's the stuff that means something, is important. comics and novels dont matter =(

[nnnnnnnp]

@hcvang I think in the beginning he didn't know the novels would become that huge but I totally agree with you, while the novels are quite good, the Star Wars franchise has become just a money machine. All these Star Wars themed products have become ridiculous. Star Wars used to be just about A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi. I liked the Prequels but they kinda put a weak link in the Star Wars chain.

[hcvang]

@nnnnnnnp Oh, I know. I just dont give a shit. If you base your franchise around the licensed merchandise instead of making the films (the main product) be priority number one, somethings wrong.

Putting the existance of idiotic novels and comic books above the possibility of new films with the great cast of the original trilogy is just plain wrooooong...

and if he's smart, he'll change his mind and do the sequel trilogy and ignore the novels, like a real artist

[nnnnnnnp]

@hcvang You're not getting me. The Expanded universe has been excepted as part of official Star Wars history. Hey if Lucas wants to make more movies I'm all for it, however don't expect the new films to have anything to do with Luke, Han, Leia, or any other characters in the Original Trilogy. Lucas has even stated that if he were to do more films they would have all new story lines and have nothing to do with the Skywalkers.

[hcvang]

@nnnnnnnp I couldnt care less what Lucas approves or disapproves - it's the films that matter, not the licensed merchandise that is purely created to make money off the films. No importance what-so-ever. No validity what-so-ever.
