    After seeing how much money Disney has made off of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise my guess is they'll have Johnny Depp play a drunken older Luke Skywalker.

    Watched the original trilogy 10,000 times. But I can honestly say I have never watched the 2nd trilogy since they were originally released in the theaters. Hope they do it justice!

    for me, they could cut everything except the lightsaber battles and it'd be the exact fucking movie to me.

    Less interested to see what they do with Star Wars, more interested to see if they try and reboot or continue the Indiana Jones series.

    All they really need to do with Star Wars is release the original cuts on Blu-Ray and DVD and the fans will be happy with them no matter how much SW7 sucks.

    He's 70! He makes Liam Neeson look like a young action star.

    But if they try and reboot it with Shia LaBeouf I'm out.

    At this point, a reboot might be the only thing that is plausible. It's been almost 30 years since episode 6, and those guys haven't aged gracefully.

    btw, interesting note. yes Fucking Harrison Ford is 70, but whats harder to believe is Johnny Depp is almost 50.

    Anywho, the only actor that could be used in the 7-9 series would probably be Mark Hamill. And while he looks like a drunken escapade gone wrong, he could play a bad guy, to a newer younger Luke Skywalker.

    I'd be interested in seeing stuff between 3 and 4, but that ship has sailed.

    I think it depends on who they hire as actors to portray the roles. And as long as they don't over Disney it, or make it super over the top special effects or just turn it into a movie with "hot stars" (i.e., make it a movie teenage girls will get wet over), it shouldn't be too bad.

    Keep it true to the story, wipe Phantom Menace, Jar Jar Binx and Hayden Christensen from our minds and thats a good start.

    btbh, I fully expect to be disappointed in the movies. My biggest complaints about 1-3 (besides the major suckage that was #1), there was TOO much crammed into the movies. Yes, as 1 complete saga it makes sense, but there's so much horse shit in 1 and 2 that it just doesn't sit well.

    I remember when the Mummy came out years ago, and I thought that (whatever that guys name is) could've been a good choice to replace Fucking Harrison Ford for Indiana Jones.

    And then they went with Shia LaBeouf.

    guh. The kid was horrible in the transformers movies (which were horrible anyway), he was atrocious in the Indiana movie (which was such a horrible movie)...the kid is just not a likable character/actor. I would hope that they hire someone who can act, is a relative unknown and NOT hired for his looks (although that vampire movie with that one dude who looked like he was a cross between a pig and a pile of jizz shows that hollywood has different tastes in what is culturally acceptable as looks).

    Mark Hamill as an Obi-Wan-style Luke, training a new apprentice who is seduced by the dark side. Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Leia and Han's son. Book it.

    Here's an idea, why don't they reboot episodes 1-3? Only this time, make them not suck?
