Ok, you can sign me up for this, however I'd consider it an exception to the rule. Much like Veers, who I would also love to see.

The original trilogy is and always will be a cinematic masterpiece but all the other shit I could live without, except games. Glad there are the games.

This star wars was quite a bit better than all of the others, especially the old 3. The original 3 had pathetic fight scenes , wording and graphics. No one cares that it was ahead of its time except people with shitty lives who like to relive nostalgic moments.

Thrawn trilogy versus The Force Unleashed. No brainer.

Oh that was a good pun. Unleashed had no brains.

From general to admiral between empire and return. I'd watch a Patton style movie for him sure why not.

Fuck yeah. That brings me to another meta talking-point on the whole Star Wars legacy.

Given Lucas penchant for epic since the prequels, had he retained control of the franchise, that would have been as close as we could get to a Thrawn Episode 7. I read all of his ideas for 7 were discarded and thrown out by JJ and the writers, then terminating Lucas consultant position on the production shortly thereafter.

Who would have ever thought a director would come along and make the Prequels infinitely more appreciable by accident?

The prequels look pretty damn good right now in light of this Dave Chappelle comedy sketch bullshit. This HAS to have even diehard prequel haters turning over and rewriting their opinion on Lucas.

If I'm Lucas, I am pretty damn pleased with myself right now. My stock has gone up and its poised to boom, with a very possible complete and total legacy vindication coming on the horizon after 8 gets delivered.

Dunno, Looper was pretty good all around and was the exact kind of 'sci-fi minus the technobabble' (fantasy) type of movie that Star Wars is supposed to be. 9 to be directed by the Jurassic World director seems to have even greater potential IMO, even though all but Chris Pratt's character were absolute shit, the story/setting/presentation was absolutely beyond amazing.

I watched looper last weekend and was thinking about this all night...

Kaga... are you suggesting that Looper is a better version of The Phantom Menace.. or at least what I mean, a better version of what the Phantom Menace was trying to do?

I was thinking damn if JGL was Obi Wan... and Emily Blunts kid was Anikin, then basically you have a WAY fucking better origin story for Darth Vader than that prequel shit was.

I mean aside from the time travel it makes a way fucking better script for Episode 1 then Epsiode 1 could ever hope.

anyway, if that's what you meant, then hats off to you pal you smarter than I thought.

Its on the same page still, that's not how you bump dude.

I just thought Looper was entertaining without being mindless action (not that that's a bad thing) and was a fantasy/sci-fi type of movie.

You read too much into stuff.
