A Prologue and a Epilogue
Many people feel that the Star Wars saga is lacking a beging and an end. To fix this they feel that there should be films concerning the events before Epi.I and after Epi.VI. Obviously you can't call the movie before Epi.I Epi.O or -1,but you can call it a prologue. Many classic stories include a prologue that is a introduction to the story. For the events following the battle of Endor Lucas could make a epilogue which is basically a summary of what happened after. The prologue could deal with the wars between the Jedi and the Sith while the epilogue could deal with the reconstruction of the Jedi order and the aftermath of Vader and Palpatine. Do you think this is a good idea?

I wouldn't mind it as long as the prologue and epilogue weren't in the form of movies. I'd rather they just be released with a special release of the entire saga or on the DVD or on TV. But not movies released at the cinema.

I agree. They don't even have to be a full-length movie just a short 15 minute summary.

EJ, I think thats a great idea. 15 minutes or less would be a better idea than a whole film. Besides, GL is never gonna be around long enough to do 7,8, and 9, let alone a full length pro or ep.

Do you think he will actually make them? Maybe we should start a petition.

Been done to death I think.
A prologue and epilogue would be nice, I think even a quick fivr minutes each could acchieve what you're looking for.

If you want I'll show you how to get your own petition and you can start it but I'm not going to sign it. I think making Ep7,8,9 would be a bad idea. So many people have their own ideas about what happens and it would upset a lot of people if Lucas had different ideas. Just look at the fuss the prequels are causing. I think the Star Wars story should end at Ep6. I would like a SW T.V show, covering different characters throughout the SW time line.
The same goes for an Epilogue and Prologue. Fans of the EU wouldn't be happy if Lucas just discarded there favourite character and came up with something else. I like it the way it is just now with everyone having different ideas about what happens.
I do think your petition would get a lot of signatures though as there are far more people who agree with you than me.

Okay, how about scratching the pro and doing an extra five tacked on a re-release package of ep1-2-3 ? Maybe that doesn't make sense... ....if George hadn't made these blasted movies backwards, sometimes things would be a lot easier.

Nice idea, something to fill in the massive void between Episode-III and ANH.

I don't think they're needed...movies are like life in that way..you never get to see what happened before and after, it's just you selected moment(s) in time..

I agree with Lady Dim (for a change  ). We don't need to see the gaps filled in. This way there is room for our imagination. I don't want Lucas to spell it all out to me. He never did, he never will, it's a way of showing respect to your audience.
