Sarg_Kulo Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 Anything official on this yet? I hope it has Boba Fett in, that would own Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted May 2, 2005 Governor Posted May 2, 2005 How about they invent a character called Sargeant Kulo... Next I'll be told there already is one... Quote
Sarg_Kulo Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 How about they invent a character called Sargeant Kulo... Next I'll be told there already is one... LOL. Sarg isn't sargeant. It's Kulo's foirst name in my fan fic ;) Tis also pronounced with a hard "g" But still a god idea. Sargeant Sarg Quote
Starwars4J Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 Anyone who hasn't checked out "A Hero Falls" I recommend you do so. It's fantastic. http://www.starwars.com/episode-iii/releas...trailer/10.html Quote
snefroe Posted May 3, 2005 Author Posted May 3, 2005 How about they invent a character called Sargeant Kulo... Next I'll be told there already is one... i think the spin-off will not be linked very closely to the films. we have a time-frame (between ep3 - ep4) and we'll probably see lot's of ships, scenery,... of the films in the series... that saves money; we also have the general story (rebels fighting the empire) however, i don't think we'll be seeing the major characters of the films, except for a guest role or so... don't forget, these hollywood stars don't have time to work in films and for tv at the same time. i'm not sure about the plans of these superstars, but it's highly unlikely we'll see them all back in a tv series... this probably means that Lucas will get a new cast... i also think that Lucas is very much aware of the legendary status of the films and all characters involved. i think he will try and get some closure after ep3. For lucas, money doesn't really matter, so he doesn't have to produce yet another show with Vader... At best, we'll get a "Young Han Solo", but i think Lucas will try not to touch either one of the iconic characters... Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted May 3, 2005 Governor Posted May 3, 2005 What you describe sounds like what happened with those Ewok movies... Quote
Vader Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 I hope it isnt like those ewok movies those were bloody awful, it was just a cheap way by lucas to cash in on their popularity with kids at the time. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted May 3, 2005 Governor Posted May 3, 2005 I read earleir at MilleniumFalcon.org there are TWO Star Wars Series in the pipeline. Guess I should have copy & pasted the information and link, but I didn't think of it at the time. Quote
Starwars4J Posted May 4, 2005 Posted May 4, 2005 You mean the continuation of the Clone Wars one, and the live-action one? (hey, I have to live up to my user-name) ;) Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted May 4, 2005 Governor Posted May 4, 2005 I'm not sure. I don't recall it going into specifics. However, share what you know. Live up to your name. Become the creature you were born to be! Quote
Starwars4J Posted May 4, 2005 Posted May 4, 2005 I'm not sure. I don't recall it going into specifics. However, share what you know. Live up to your name. Become the creature you were born to be! NOOOOO-er, okay :-D The two series coming into fruition are the live-action series that you've been speaking of, as well as the animated continuation of the clone wars series. Do you know of the Clone Wars series? If not, here's some information (I wish I knew how to make text I type an actual link...) http://www.starwars.com/clonewars/explore/timeline/ Interesting series. I'm not really a fan of the drawing style...but hey, it's Star Wars, I'm not complaining ;) Lucas is also planning on doing the entire original trilogy in 3-D for a re-release in theaters Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted May 5, 2005 Governor Posted May 5, 2005 I have seen all 25 episodes of the Clone Wars and as Chapter 25 supposedly ends where Episode III starts I'd like to know how the series is going to continue? Will the next season be a prequel season or will it cram a whole heaps of events in between Chapter 25 and the start of Episode III? Quote
Starwars4J Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 I have no idea, and probably neither does lucas ;) I figure they'll either do Ep3 side-stories, or maybe continue after Ep 3 (with a different title of course). They won't be able to do THAT much more though, cause then they'd cross into the territory of the live-action series...to be honest I have no idea how they're gonna pull it off. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted May 5, 2005 Governor Posted May 5, 2005 It couldn't be set after Episode III because the Clone Wars ends 2/3 of the way through the movie. If it had a different title then it wouldn't be Clone Wars, it would be a spinoff series - presumably made with the same animation style but the characters would have to be different. Quote
Starwars4J Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 Which it very well might be. I mean right now everything is preliminary, so they might just be calling it "Clone Wars" due to the same animation style and group working on them. Though right now, nobody really knows much of anything. Quote
Wolf04 Posted May 9, 2005 Posted May 9, 2005 Some more information: 'Dian' sent in this bit heard on TV in Australia regarding the upcoming live-action "Star Wars" TV series: I was just watching the news over here in Australia and they said that the TV series will be shot in Australia and a deal will be done this June. The show will be one hundred episodes long and a hour each. Lucasfilm is also developing a 3D half-hour version of the Clone Wars animated series that have aired on Cartoon Network. Static Multimedia has more on this with George Lucas: "The TV series, the animated TV series called 'Clone Wars' is about the clone wars. Some of it has been on the Cartoon Network, but we're making it into an actual half hour, 3D animation series, and the other one deals with minor characters. And the time period is between episode 3 and episode 4, that 20-year stretch, but the characters aren't any of the main characters that are in the movies." In that interview, Lucas also talks about "Episode III" (including spoilers) and the "Star Wars" franchise in-depth. He gave an update on Indiana Jones 4 as well: "Yep. I got a script last week and I'm going to work with the writer next week and you know, we have a ways to go on it." Thanks to www.comingsoon.net. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted May 11, 2005 Governor Posted May 11, 2005 Good work Mr Wolf. That information was very helpful. We won't need to take you to the pound afterall. Keep it coming and we'll feed you some dog biscuits. Quote
Wolf04 Posted May 11, 2005 Posted May 11, 2005 Ummm...more goodies. Australian newspaper The Daily Telegraph caught up with "Star Wars" creator George Lucas and producer Rick McCallum and asked about the upcoming TV series. Lucas confirmed that the tie-in series will be made in Sydney. He praised the city, where Episodes I and II of the franchise were filmed. "I am looking forward to coming back and working there some more," he said. The live action show, consisting of 100 hour-long episodes, will be based on minor characters in the "Star Wars" series. "It's a spin-off, it doesn't involve any of the key characters. It's a different world unto itself between episodes three ['Revenge of the Sith'] and four ['A New Hope']." McCallum confirmed the series was "definite as definite can be," although they will still have to work out the timing. "It's a definite that we do it - the rest we haven't discussed on any level." He added that "George is thinking maybe we can do a series somewhere between Episode III and IV because that's the longest break [in the film series], 20 years. The Death Star takes 20 years to build, so we need to work that out." McCallum says the series would use Sydney actors, directors and crew. Lucasfilm is also planning a separate 3D half-hour version of the "Clone Wars" animated series that have aired on Cartoon Network. From www.comingsoon.net I wasn't really interested in Clone Wars until I got it. I watched all 25 episodes and I can say, that show is awesome. Non-stop action, so I can hardly wait for the TV show.

Governor Mister Phes Posted May 12, 2005 Governor Posted May 12, 2005 Excellent Wolf! Excellent! Someone should throw a live sheep into your enclosure so you have something fresh to munch on... Quote
Starwars4J Posted May 12, 2005 Posted May 12, 2005 Now if it took 20 years to build the death star, then how did they build the Death Star II in like 5? C'mon, it was easily 3/4 done. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted May 12, 2005 Governor Posted May 12, 2005 Yeah that was one of my biggest boggles of the Death Star. However, this is quite easily solved... They're simply created TWO Death Stars, the second one commences construction in say 10 years time... And bang! There's 15 years till its 75% complete in Return of the Jedi. Of course none of the writers might be smart enough to realise this for I fear they may be incompetent fools. Quote
snefroe Posted May 25, 2005 Author Posted May 25, 2005 it seems ani is going to appear in the tv-series, according to movieweb.com Quote
Wolf04 Posted May 25, 2005 Posted May 25, 2005 it seems ani is going to appear in the tv-series, according to movieweb.com You mean Vader? Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted May 25, 2005 Governor Posted May 25, 2005 It would be really disturbing if Ani appeared in a post Episode III TV series. Quote
snefroe Posted May 26, 2005 Author Posted May 26, 2005 well... it seems Lucas is talking about this role with an australian actor who was his second choice for the role of ani for the film. that suggest we'll get to see more of Ani, doesn't it? you don't need a look alike of C. Hayden to play Vader, do you? it seems btw, that they will start shooting in australia... don't know when but it looks as if lucas is pushing this tv series forward... Quote
