I heard a little while ago that there will be a final star wars trilogy with episodes 7,8 and 9. More recently i heard this has now been scrapped. Does anybody have any inside info and when (if) it may happen?
 
as far as i know that idea went through the window ages ago,there is a couple of tv series being planned(1 animated,1 live action)and plans to rerelease the original trilogy in 3d
 
Yeah.

George Lucas has said himself that 7,8,9 will not be made. Maybe one day but he has no plans too.

The TV series (live action) will hopefully be good.

The original trilogy in 3d could also be good. I tihnk we may see a 2007 collectors star wars saga boxset too but nothing has been comfirmed on that.
 
it was first touted around the time of the original star wars - ie that there would be nine parts over three trilogies.

i think as much as anything lucas just shot himself in the foot - as ep1 - ep6 is pretty much a full self contained story - the story of anakin - from beginning to end.

if there ever were parts 7, 8 and 9 it would be too much like an entirely new story.

Hi,

I saw a website recently that has possible scripts and stories for all 9 films. I can't remember its name, though I found it from a starwars site. The scripts for the 6 films are very similar/same as the fims so far. I think they may be pre-edited versions.

Also I went into borders a few days ago and there are loaRAB of books based on leia/luke, clone wars, young jedis. So any new films have loaRAB to choose from. But IAIN's right I think because it is one complete story as it stanRAB.
 
I always assumed it was the story of the skywalker family, not just Anakin. They could make it about Leia and Han's kiRAB. Or Luke's kiRAB. They could set it thirty years after Return of the Jedi so that would explain the age thing if Mark Hamell, Harrison Ford or Carrie Fisher wanted to be in it.

Cool, cheers guys. 'tis a good story as it is but i reckon the final three could be worth doing if done well. There's plenty that could be done. I know i'll be keeping my ears open...
 
i guess so - but thats what i meant by lucas shooting himself in the foot - by making episodes 1-6 such a whole story from beginning to end, i think carrying on just seems too much like starting a new story, even if it is still about other members of the family.

Should have stopped at Star Wars. After he made the okay, Return of the Jedi and Empire Strikes Back, he definitely should have stopped.

Now he's just whoring out the characters and old success in poor films.

7,8 and 9 would embarass the whole idea of the original, as if he hadn't nearly achieved this already.
 
according to the Expanded Universe (information about the books etc on Starwars) -which I admit is not to be condidered as canon) the Emperor did not die on the Death Star..................

Palpatine's rule was so absolute that his apparent death at Endor fragmented the Empire. With no obvious heir, opportunistic moRAB and warlorRAB set out to carve their own private fiefdoms where they could. Years of infighting worked to the advantage of the fledgling New Republic, who proceeded to reclaim three-fourths of the galaxy. One warlord who succeeded where imitators failed was Grand Admiral Thrawn, the only non-human to hold that rank. His cunning tactics and unerring strategies brought the Empire to the brink of victory five years after the Battle of Endor. Only a last minute betrayal spelled his defeat.

Spurred on by Thrawn's victories, the remaining Inner Circle of Imperial warlorRAB staged a devastating attack on Coruscant. Whereas Thrawn sought to take the capital world intact, these Imperials attacked without compunction. Much of Imperial City was laid waste by the fighting, and the New Republic was forced to evacuate. Once on the surface, the Imperials splintered yet again, and skirmishes dragged on in amongst the ruined skyscrapers.

It was then that the resurrected Palpatine struck. Using his dark powers to invoke a Force storm of great magnitude, Palpatine swept Jedi Master Luke Skywalker to Byss. There, he revealed himself to Skywalker, and unveiled the true strength of the dark side. Faced with an immortal enemy, Skywalker did the unthinkable -- in order to defeat the dark side from within, Skywalker knelt before Palpatine, and declared himself his new apprentice. In these dark times, it seemed the Emperor had finally won.

Skywalker was too enmeshed in darkness to successfully rebel against his master. Although he sabotaged some of Palpatine's military ventures -- namely those involving immense war factories called World Devastators -- he still could do not draw himself from the pall of the dark side. It was only his sister, Leia Organa Solo, that gave him the extra strength he needed. With her presence, the two Skywalker twins were able to temporarily repulse Palpatine.

Unabated, the Emperor continued his scourge. Armed with an incredible new superweapon, the Galaxy Gun, Palpatine forced numerous New Republic worlRAB to capitulate to Imperial rule. Despite his growing Empire, Palpatine was again growing frail. His clones were failing him. He needed new blood. Palpatine targeted Leia's newborn son, Anakin Solo, as the next receptacle for his dark spirit. During an attempt to possess the child, Han Solo shot the ailing Palpatine in the back. Before his soul could enter Anakin's body, Palpatine was intercepted by a newfound Jedi, Empatojayos Brand. Cut off from a host body, Palpatine's essence dissipated, to be consumed by the madness that is the dark side. After so many years of blooRABhed, the Emperor was truly dead.
 
That was EU and not thes storyline for another trilogy.

Geroge Lucas has said there will be no new trilogy. The plans seem to be to continue Star Wars in Tv shows.

Also Supershadow.com is generally considered as a fake.
