The Future of Star Wars

I for one have always doubted George Lucas when he said that after Episode 3 that would be it for Star Wars. I mean, he can’t even leave the original films alone and yet we are supposed to believe he will leave everything alone after this? Yeah, right.


Anyway, I was sent this via email

George Lucas on the Star Wars Franchise

Source: Scott Chitwood April 23, 2005


"Star Wars" creator/writer/director George Lucas made his guest appearance at "Celebration III" this morning at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis and he talked about the franchise. About 9,000 fans had been lined up since midnight for a chance to see Lucas talk.


The event was hosted by actor Jay Laga'aia, who played Captain Typho in "Attack of the Clones" and "Revenge of the Sith," though Lucas funnily made a mistake saying he thought Laga'aia played a Clone Trooper.


Lucas confirmed that they are working on two TV series. One will be a half hour 3-D computer animated series and the other is a live action series. The live action series will star some of the characters featured in the movies, though not the main characters. Lucas will kick-off the series himself. They are planning on writing the entire first season and then shooting Season One all at once. He mentioned Lucasfilm is aiming for a production start in about a year.


Also, George Lucas said that the "Star Tours" thrill ride at Disney-MGM Studios will be getting an overhaul soon. And he confirmed they are working on bringing the early 90's TV series The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles to DVD as well.

And after some great snoop work by myself and John Doe, we are able to bring you some additional spin-offs Lucas has planned....


The Odd Sith Couple

This one is about Anakin and Palpatine sharing the palace on Coruscant and all the crazy adventures they have.


Clones

This follows six clone troopers stationed on Coruscant and how they deal with the events in their lives


Everybody Loves Palpatine

Well if you don’t, you end up dead having accidentally shot yourself. Several times.


Coruscant 5-0

Two law enforcement troopers and their cases in the city planet.


Oh Yoda, Where art thou?

The remnants of the Republic and a rabble that will become the Rebel Alliance travel around the galaxy looking for the elusive Jedi Master.


The J-Team

A long time ago, a crack Jedi team was sent to prison for execution by an Imperial court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security prison facility on Kessel to the Galactic underground. Today, still wanted by the Empire, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the J-Team."


Wan Fu

Obi Wan travels from planet to planet, using his mystical Jedi fighting skills to help the local populace.


Just Shoot Jedi

Laughs abound at the Empire propaganda offices, where the boss just likes to play zero-gravity golf, the PA is a quirky little Bothan and the fashion writer is a Twi-lek tart.


Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Trandos

An antique blaster, Hutt gangsters and a race across Geonosha just ahead of the republic commandos.

Prisoner

Life in an all-female detention block.


Clone Punk'd

Clone Troopers play practical jokes on each other like "Hold my thermal detonator" and "What you do when you’re surrounded by super battle droids".


Some Cloners Do 'Ave 'Em

And these crazy Kamino cloners must deal with the clone troopers as they go about their daily activities.


The J Files

Two officers from the Imperial Bureau of Investigation seek to discover the truth about strange occurrences around the galaxy that could be linked to Jedi activity.


Nal Hutta Vice

Join the Vice unit in the depths of the seedy underworld of the Hutt’s homeworld.


Clone Over

A Clone trooper has an accident and wakes up back when he was a little clone of 14, with a chance to redo his life.


To Kill a Mynock

Follow the efforts of one lone citizen as he tries to free the Empire of its prejudice against non-human species. One episode only.


Lost

A transport crashes on a strange planet and the survivors must band together against a mysterious entity that is slowly killing them off one by one.


Alias

A republic student is recruited by the GIA (Galactic Intelligence Agency) and is forced to wear skimpy outfits in order to infiltrate the separatists to piece together a mystery that was started by a Jedi called Obi-Rambaldi some 500 years ago.

Also be sure to look out for Survivor: Hoth, Tatooine, Sullust, Kashyyyk, and Dathomir.
