Ok, I'll choose a new episode provided that I'm cast as the female lead, that Lawrence Kasdan writes it and that the actors of the OT are given a sort of youth potion that makes them 10 years younger, or else I'll take the money, thank you very much.
I am serious...I think it bites...but I still love it...and if he decided to make another SW movie I can tell you right now that I'd love that too.
I love Lucas' whole Star Wars reality...the look of it, the feel of it, and pretty much everything that happens in it. I love his imagination and genius that made me a SW fan to begin with...doesn't mean I can't be critical of the form that genius comes in.
$1,000. What would episode 7 have? The sith are destroyed in 6. Dark Jedi? Big deal. We all know no Dark Jedi can compare to the mighty of the Sith Lords.
Oh woe to you of so little ambition and imagination. Who is to say that more might not mean better. The possibilities are near endless. The possibility of a cock up , granted, but still, Star Wars could be so much more than the Skywalkers. Don't allow it to fossilize.

Think I've got what I've wanted out of this thread...
More than twice as many people would take the $1000...and judging from the responses, it's not about the money....which is pretty cool...shows much respect.
I don't think I'd go over $1000 though.
Good responses everybody!

Re: What would you rather have? Episode VII or $1000?
Are you kidding me? With a $1,000 I could buy me tons and tons of Star Wars Merchadise. Screw it! The OT was good enough for me. I'll take the money and spend it all on rare collectible SW stuff.
i'd even give up $5,000 for another episode. im all for more star wars. episode VII could work too. it could take place about 30 years after VI, when Luke is closer to old ben's age, which logically works with Hammil's actual age. An older Luke can echo the ways of old Ben kenobi. I think it would make for an interesting story having the same OT characters, only taking place much later in their lives. it would probably screw up some of the existing sw lore that takes place after VI, but lucas has made changes before that weren't so bad (Jango fett for example). If not VII, then a movie following the KOTOR period would be cool too. if Lucas does decide to continue with more sw movies (which i think would be great), he should wait another 10 years or so, after he's had a chance to make some other movies and have a break. if he's alive by that time, hopefully he can give up the director's chair to someone else, or at least have SOMEONE ELSE to better write a screenplay.
